    I'll second the "battle damage looks stupid; hope it's easy to remove" comments. That Prime mold that comes in the two-pack is only available in the two-pack, right? If so, I'll definitely be getting it.

    Deluxe mold looks an awful lot like cybertron Sideways in vehicle mode.

    I'm not crazy about either. Voyager robot mode has REALLY big legs. never noticed that before.

    I'm gonna wait for Earth mode

    Wow, I love that deco. I can take or leave the battle damage, but the darker grey is a huge improvment.

    And I can't get over how much I love that floating gun platform. It is absolutely everything I could want in a alt-mode for Megatron.

    Voyager Meg's cannon truly deserves the name of fusion cannon

    I like the Battel damaged 2-pack megs better. Im not sure why though. I might snag the 2-pack, but i really want the earth mode megs the most.

    It's nice but still doesn't match up to the voyager. So still on ETA on the pack?

    Huh, so it is a deluxe and is almost completely pointless in being so, it's about 2cm shorter, has a vastly inferior cannon and some nasty painted battle damage.
    In it's favour however is a better looking, more streamlined alt mode. It almost looks like something vaguely aquatic and he has fists.
    Then again Voyager Megs doesn't need fists because he has a fricking huge ultra death cannon that also comes equipped with swords.

    Well the two pack just fell off my list, an inferior Megs, unfortunately painted Prime and a cheap dvd do not an essential purchase make.

    If they'd limited the Cybertron modes to this two pack and left off fthe battle damage then I'd be falling over myself to get it for it's uniqueness.
    Essentialy they've killed their own product by making smaller versions of better toys.

    It boggles the mind, how did they come up with this seemingly random mixture?
    The preview pack should have been an easy equation, Cyb modes in a box with a teaser for the show released before it actually starts.

    The only appealing thing is the deluxe Earth Prime and I feel more then confident taking my chances that he'll be available in an un battle damaged form reasonably soon.

    Sooooo how come these are still mistransformed? The gun is supposed to be on the BOTTOM and sticking out forward from under the cockpit bubble. Is the toy just that backwards and inaccurate? Going by the other animated toys, it has to be user-error.

    From what we've seen in galleries and reviews, it's not possible to put the gun in that position, as the gun and cockpit are one piece.

    I really like it. Other than the Activators (depends on what they look like) and probably the Roll-Out and Command Optimus Prime (depends on price, gimmicks, and a few other things), I plan on getting everything (including this 2-pack).

    I like the more reasonably-sized cannon on the deluxe version, but being the sucker that I am I will probably end up with all of the figures anyway.

    I wish people would stop whining & complaining about Megs Cybertron jet mode being "incorrect" or "mistransformed" everytime we see the toy. Yeah it looked a tad different in the cartoon - for the whole 4 SECONDS we even saw it. How anyone could possibly get bent out of shape based on an eye-blink worth of screen time vs. the physical toy is beyond me. If anything, the version in the cartoon is actually incorrect.

    And I'm sorry, but no matter where you put that canon - on top or bottom - it's not going to help the alt mode look any better. Just like Movie Megs alt mode design, it's a whole lot of... nothing. It just happens to "fly".

    Does anyone else see the hinge in the middle of the cannon/cockpit on the deluxe Megatron? It looks like the cannon can flip to face forward in starship mode. The cannon clearly does SOMETHING, I'd like to see what.

    This deluxe 2-pack looks great... even with the battle damage.

    I hope to be able to snag this so I can pass on the Voyagers version of both Prime and Megs as they really don't seem to be worth the 100% markup over these, plus there's the DVD to tide me over until the season 1 set. Too bad it's only 1 episode though.

    Yeah he's all right.
    I'll get him instead of the Voyager toy along with Prime instead of the Voyager Earth mode to save money.

    Hmmm, which one is better? The voyager one is much biggger, but not a very good color and the deluxe one is the right color, but it's too small. Decisions, Decisions, Decisions.
