    Hmm... just when people thought they could maybe, kinda begin to understand the numbering system.

    Likely, that is just another face panel, friend. Odds are even strong that it the same one currently being sold by third parties who probably mass produced a dropped extra intended with MP-36.

    Toy Megatron is tempting but I'm definitely getting that Shockwave hot damn.

    Interesting. A few folks speculated that the toy chest plate and face which came with some of the KO Megatrons was based off Takara CAD models. Looks like they were right, because they look exactly the same to me.

    I dunno I feel like this is another loss. I Like the silver and red details in Megs but I hate the toy face. I really do prefer the old best-of-both worlds take.

    Shockwave looks amazingly nice with these colors.

    As for Megatron, I understand what they were trying to do, but why would you want to buy a >$200 figure that looks exactly like a toy from that eighties that goes for less than $100 nowadays? (For those of you who want it, I'm sorry, I'm not attacking you personally.)

    Marvel comic fans are probably gnashing their teeth if they'd caved to the animation colors original Shocky...

    Personally I want that Astro Magnum repaint.

    That toy Megatron...man, how sexy. Just when I thought I wasn't going to have any MPs to get, this and BW Megs kick my wallet in the balls.

    *Cries as he prepares to drop another $230 on the MP-36 mold.*

    Megs looks fantastic, lets hope that they give us a black helmet option.

    But one thing seems wrong...

    Where is his BIG trigger?

    Honestly I don't see too much difference between this Shockwave and the old one. It's not as dark as I expected it to be based on some customs.

    Not interested in either of these, but we inch ever closer to Shackwave and Safety Megatron!

    Shockwave is a good start, but needs black wire not purple, and shiny metal feet and legs....

    Also needs faction symbol on chest not arms
