    Does that part of megs back fold down when combined?

    It almost looks like the part can fold down and there is clearance for his head.

    Nope, there's no hinge for it to work like that.

    Great video! Yeah, I've really been looking forward to this figure.

    Incidentally, do you have the single-packed version of Cyberverse Megatron that comes minus the trailer as well? I much prefer the head sculpt on that version, and I was wondering how easy you reckon it would be to swap the heads around.

    Also - and I realize this is a long shot - does the single-packed version have any sort of trailer hitch that would be compatible with the trailer from the Blastwave version?

    :) 

    EDIT: After checking the images of the single-packed version in the Resources section, I'm pretty sure the head sculpts are the same on both toys, just with alternate paint apps. Oh well, I'd much rather do a little bit of painting if that's all that's necessary, than messing around trying to swap heads!

    Can Prime and Megatron swap trailers? I would love Cyberverse Prime repainted as RiD Scourge with an oil tanker truck to pull.

    Conceivably, since they both use the same type of clip system for trailer attachment. Sadly, though, the way it's designed, the clip on Megatron's trailer sits too far back to allow clearance to attach to Prime. The front of the tanker hits the back of Prime's cab before the clip is forward enough to clip on.

    Hmm, so the one window popping forward is intentional, I thought it was a strange detail in the voyager version, but it's molded here too.

    Good looking figure, by the way.

    These things look like so much fun! Definitely buying Prime and Megs, maybe Starscream.

    Thanks for the review! Megatron actually looks much better than Prime. I like the concept of Cyberverse, but I'm unsure if I'll buy any of them.

    Pretty sure I won't buy it, but Megatron looks pretty nifty I got to say.
    First movie Megatron that looks better than his OP equivalent?

    I imagine a lot of kids will have a great time with these!

    I get a Laser Rod Optimus Prime vibe off of this, similar vehicle and battle station modes.

    Any idea what retail is? Since Legion class is 4.99 and leader class (cyberverse) is 7.99 and includes optimus and megatron without these extra trailers. Does that bump these versions with the trailer to 14.99 ???
