    To me he looks much more shiny in these pics than the copies people already have in hand. Is it just a trick of the bright show lights or is it possible the final version is painted?

    That’s what I thought but it looks really shiny in the show pics above. Is it that shiny in person?

    Quick question, are the knees and fingers a different shade of gold than the gold accents on the upper body? In most pictures they look different but in the Takara stock images it looks to be the same color.

    Yes, but the shoulder rotation becomes limited. Still a cool way to display or use for limited play!

    This looks great honestly. And I really hoped there'll be a better mace and cannon made in the future to compliment this guy. Cause this just looks so damn good.

    Just found this out while rewatching some clips, but Megatron's helmet is once again different and accurate to the MPM's helmet sculpt when his body is getting dumped into the ocean. And, as someone else way earlier in thread pointed out, it's also like this when Megs is frozen in ice.

    I really think it's just the angle. People are saying the head is super inaccurate but it's not very different. I have had it for a while now and it's a great looking figure for sure.
