    What's the source for this? Is this claiming to be real, or is it just fan art?

    That's a 3rd party figure. It's based on a fan made model called Monocrat made by megatank.

    So not really, its a figure based on a fan's thoughts on a movie reboot Megatron.

    This probably has been mentioned before, but the Prime 1 Megatron would be an absolutely phenomenal movie design. It's very intimidating and that tank-tread cape is genius. I really like the thruster things in his shoulders and really intricate legs. Reminds me a little bit of Nitro Zeus.

    If this design took a few cues from the RotF, TLK, and Animated Megatron, it would be perfect for me. I like my Megs a tad more spiky and unique.

    I'm not a fan of Megatron being a hunchaback

    I think he's leaning forward, though.

    That, and he's also wearing a cape, which would probably make a difference too:

    I think that would be a bit boring. Of course, I don’t we should strive for anything too far from the original, but innovation along the lines of Animated or TLK Megatron would be nice.

    If they make this design less hunchback and give him a similar headsculpt as Animated Megs, sign me up.

    Josh Nizzi is a goddamned genius and while I love a lot of Bayverse designs, I really wish they hadn't directed him to make a lot of them so clunky

    Edit: And the face is really good too. You can see his lips pursed in cold thought, like he's debating whether to kill you in public or private and which way would better serve his cause

    yeahtho it should be base around that tbh it has been a year and I don't exactly recall how megs look anymore

    But I still feel like the gun barrel is too long and the design I saw seems to have more black

    Hmm I think atleast 75-80%,the face style is kind of similar tho I still recall the gun barrel is shorter like the silhouette and it has more black, it has been a year so its kinda hard for me to rmb

    Oh yeah it’s absolutely the Bee movie design. Even has the same little nubs on the silhouette’s head. I assume the thing on his back is some kind of removable accessory.

    Tall boi Megatron is real.
    Really tho, I love the fact that Megatron is going to be this hulking guy, the idea of him towering over the autobots already makes him more imposing than Scourge

    Megatron should always tower over most of the Autobots and his Decepticon minions, but I want Prime to increase his height to 22-23 feet, so it won't be a too disadvantaged for him when he goes 1-1 against Megatron.
