    Looks nice! Looks like a simpler and more clever transformation which I appreciate in a bigger figure as long as it looks good too.

    So is this by Alien Attack or Exquisite Toys? Because if it's by Alien Attack then I would not trust their quality until they prove otherwise

    Looking at these two designs a bit more closely, I actually don't think they're the same mold. I could be completely wrong but I thought I'd give my 2 :2c: . The original Exquisite toys prototype has a lot of different detailing, look at the crotch piece, the size of the head, the shoulder joints, even the shoulders themselves look quite different. Look at his left arm, quite a lot of differences there as well. The whole chest area looks really different as well. Near the thigh area, the hip skirt thingys are higher up on this new gray prototype, and much bigger. The wheels are much larger on this new prototype as well. It should also be noted that this gray prototype has less detail than the original Exquisite Toys prototype. Alien Attack revealed a lot recently, better renders of their TLK V2 Prime and AOE Galvatron. I don't think this is exquisite toys, rather, it's a new prototype developed by AAT. It could also be Toy World since they hinted at a DOTM Megatron a couple of years back, but the detailing on this figure doesn't seem to match what they've done in the past so I doubt it.

    Butttt I could always be wrong, and Exquisite Toys just changed a lot about their figure

    either it has been redesigned from scratch or it is a completely different developer. Nothing is the same on these two designs.

    Just the Weibo names are different...also they have too much differences in details. For me: left AAT, right ET.

    Could be an early render of the prototype or they're just remaking it.

    As far as i know, that render it's not from Alien Attack.

    Yeah all these random renders popping up these days. It's impossible to know which will become actual products. Some people are still asking about figures that were revealed years ago and never even given a prototype or in-packaging shots or preorders.

    Their Steelclaw went through quite a few changes too, they're not afraid of changing the transformation from the first prototype

    My concern is that it seems to share some similarities to the Dream Factory God-09 Steel Claw Bonecrusher. While that figure is fantastic, I had some concerns about the plastic they used and the engineering for some of the transformation. The 09S version had a matte paint finish that wasn't sealed so it chipped instantly because the clearances weren't very well thought out for the transformation. I hope that this Megatron isn't similar, but it looks like it shares a similar design philosophy from the new renders.

    It’s ALIVE!!! If this is the same company then I feel they did a great job simplifying the silhouette and balancing out the proportions.

    DOTM is my favorite design for bayverse megs and the attitude of a world weary conquerer and exhausted gladiator they gave him in the prequel comics just sealed the deal... the first version of this guy in mpm scale with be immediately joining my shelf! My decepticons have been without their leader for far too long

    I figured. It looks way too familiar to the Voyager from a decade ago.
