I was about to get mine, I found broken one with Fender pin, I could buy it from a guy, but it got sellled on Ebay before i paid, so i feel bad i cant get it   And that shid with CoronaVirus i also cant order it from ShowZ

 

Be careful with that Megatron. I've read that the plastic can be brittle causing his spiky bits to break off.

 

A ton of misinformation floating around on that subject with this Megatron. I believe most of those posts about "brittle" plastic are from one user.
I'm not saying it hasn't happened, but I'd just like to counter that I have transformed my own LS-12 back and forth multiple times now, with zero incident of hairline fracture or otherwise.

 

Nope, multiple users, we even have Ben getting breakages. That company’s quality has decreased recently and it shows.

 

Yikes. The plastic feels different from WJ's materials, and in a lower quality way. Hopefully mine doesn't have any issues.

Here's hoping I'm as lucky as you!

Ben from Ben's KOllectibles? Wasn't his a test sample? Sadness either way when it comes to lower end plastics.

On the topic of Thunder Leader, I still have yet to transform him. I just love staring at him.

 

Test samples he gets seem to be ones from right before release, so they are pretty much what you get. I remember a year or two back people were talking about how they were killing WJ.... yeah.... that took a turn.

 

Oh yes. I recently got my LS-06s and aside from additional head being broken, the claw-arm screws being too short there's the battle damage paint... and believe me it's not like it's chipping - the toy literally leaves your hands dirty with dark sludge after playing with it   Damn shame because their Ironhide and Scorn are pretty solid.

 

To each their own then. Mine is fine, and I'm happy with it.
I primarily was recalling posts by ManelFigures who took pictures of his cracked pieces.
I just try to combat negativity towards a figures quality when it's being jumped, and when I'm an actual end user of the figure, not solely an observer.
That being said, I can't argue with multiple reports of cruddy plastic. I had more issues with my Honey Badger version over this one.
He looks fantastic with Black Apple OP (back on topic!), and really stands out in my current Decepticon line-up.

 

Ironically, I believe that @ManelFigures has the WJ OS MPM Megatron, not the BMB one.

 

actually was in the thread for the BMB one and can confirm, he has the BMB megs.

 

No, I have AoyiMech LS12, I think it's the BlackMamba re-branded figure. But I saw that all the KO's has issues. I don't know what happened with movie oversized ko, but everything gone down with Brawl Black Mamba, the next figures were a totally mess.

 

anyone know where this is still in stock?

 

That's a shame. I like the paintjob and size of the BMB one better than the WJ. It also has two whip accessories that are made of better plastic. The BMB ROTF Megatron has problems too. What to do?

 

Scorn is good

 

I'm going with BMB, because the alt mode isn't really interesting enough for frequent transformations, and I like the scale-model collection feel

 

That's how I feel too. Mind U I haven't even taken mine out the packet yet. I'm trying to think of how I can make space.

 

No, the whip tends to get bend. It's a mess too.

 

I'm going to get the WJ version.

 

I mean, the whip bends a lot in the movie so it's something one can work around

 

Again, no. The whip never will stay on the place... it falls down.
