    I still am. Didn't like Siege Megatron, and I'm waiting for the G2 deco of ER. And TR Megatron is just so versatile being a triple-changer with arm and shoulder mounting options for his cannon.

    No Shapeways parts, though, just Reprolabels.

    Wondering what would be the result if you were to take parts off of each figure to make 1 penultimate Megatron

    Also, is there a simple mod to give him a neck joint? It's the one thing pissing me off seeing this voyager mold

    Netflix. Its a shame i had previously already bought siege for cheap. I dont see a need currently to double dip with the added cost and bonus of a couple crap target masters

    Why only penultimate and not ultimate?

    Go with Earthrise. Siege looks ok from the front, but that floating panel on the back just looks bad, and the alt mode is silly looking. Dab a little silver paint on the face or yellow on the eyes (depending on whether you want him to look like the cartoon or the original toy) and you've got a winner.

    Because I'm sure HasTak will release a retooled and repainted version right after making that triple combo

    Netflix Megatron by far.

    There is no contest here.

    Ah, I see :)  yeah, I hope that as well. At least some repaints in cartoon accurate deco without cell shading for Optimus and Megatron is what I'm hoping for. That's the main reason I held off from buying Netflix Megatron.
