Megatron - Tranformers Energon

[@jamesclarke721]

I had this when I was a kid! I remember thinking this was the coolest toy in the world

[@MrSnakeman96]

oh my god i had a flash back of me playing with this figure (galvatron repaint) when i was younger, as soon as you showed off the tanks sounds, i remember spamming the crap out of the buttons on that thing all the time, so soon as i heard it, it brought me back to my youth, thank you :)

[@cobaltprime9467]

I always liked that the tank was based on his Armada V-mode, like he couldn’t get rid of it so he made it an arm cannon.

[@jezz2k]

When I first saw this, I immediately recognised the similarities to G1 Galvatron, especially the torso. The four squares that make up the 'abdomen', the four-pointed 'crown', the 'knee caps', and the 'Y-fronts'. Clearly a lot of homage going on there.

[@duyphan4617]

Yeah. Glad Superlink correctly depicted him as Galvatron

[@DragonBorn-l4c]

The cannons on his shoulders also sorta look like his galvatron fusion cannon as well

[@allenusison3124]

Because he is always called Galvatron in Super Link. Shockingly, the American release of Galvatron is the most favored version of the Energon Megatron mold, besides, well, his base form.

[@TheAxelandx1]

This guy makes me so nostalgic, i grew up with this Megatron

[@JasonSawyer]

The Galvatron version is just awesome. IMO the best Galvatron we've gotten thus far.

[@jamesvogel85]

Just tracked down the Galvatron repaint of this guy online and can't wait for it to get here. Decided to watch this review to help keep me pumped!

[@midnightace9631]

My favorite Megatron toy. So glad you mention about the sword (had the Toy'R'us one)

[@NathanWerewuff]

The Beginning of Megatron's Identity crisis when it came to his vehicle modes.

[@Delfromteamrad]

Megaception

[@HeIsTheBluesCat]

I adore the clear parts on the Energon toys, and plus Megatron looks like the Halberd from the Kirby games

[@RichRonMitchy]

One of the best Megatron incarnations! Firepower for days, Bad Ass vehicle mode, and a tank for his blaster. Winning? Yes!

[@av0-cad03]

when you jump into "super energon" and realise it's purple dye.

[@av0-cad03]

Master Farr I was just talking about this megatron and how they just made him purple

[@av0-cad03]

Master Farr​ I didn't watch much energion :/

[@av0-cad03]

Master Farr oh

[@av0-cad03]

Master Farr​ I still don't know exactly what you mean. But okay! XD

[@theskyrax670]

Dark Angel Dreadnought that makes scream in pain

[@Dragonsbane025]

You can insert the tank into where the sword is stored and then hit the button to release it. Also, with the tank stuck in there you can muck around with it a bit and give it a Galvatron-esque cannon emplacement look/mode.

[@ChromiumRanger]

I had this as a kid, it was one of my fave figures.

[@machspinbitchproductions973]

My favorite Megatron EVER!

[@dol_mel7487]

Meh its nit the best though it's meant to be more of galvatron than actually megatrkn

[@girpon3319]

The hole at the back of the tank is where his energon sword-thingy goes

[@dol_mel7487]

Watch the whole video he knows lol

[@alexfickes2798]

This figure came with green wax which I think was for megatrons sword I have this toy and also energon optimus prime as well

[@allenusison3124]

Never forget that this toy got the Core Class treatment, which was Scout Class back in Energon. Yeah, you get a modern version of this thing, only smaller and palm-sized.

[@edward18517]

Always wanted this toy as a kid. His body just looked so cool to me in this version and personally I think he looks way better as Megatron than he does as Galvatron. I never did understand why they called him Megatron when it started off though. He was Galvatron at the end of Armada and has the classic Galvatron crown and stomach thing when Energon begins. I guess at least the Japanese (the ONLY version of the show to watch) keeps it Galvatron from the previous series.

[@caden141]

It’s because hasbro wanted to protect the name from getting trademark

[@MisterFanwank]

Klingon Bird of Prey. I love his jet mode.

[@thegaminggolem]

so for Hyper Mode, he basically becomes X-Wing fighter.

[@TylerGreeneTrueMaoyuu]

awesome review as always

[@sethleonard3102]

The toys from Transformers Armada and Energon were my childhood. I loved how the Armada Decepticons had so many projectile weapons, and they had the only vehicle modes that made sense. So my entire collection consisted of just Decepticons.

[@dol_mel7487]

soy since lol the auto bots had some alt noes that made since too

[@keithmoran6835]

This thing got so much hype on TV when it was being released.

[@Zen_rebel]

I have this mold and there are knee joints and mine came with some I guess energon plates that were the same color green as the cannons. whatsoever up with that?

[@elgary9074]

If you watch the serie energon, you will clearly know that this is not a tank, it was not simply meant to be atank but a powerful sword, also in the series HE NEVER put this weapon on top of him when is in spaceship shape.

[@Rangersilver6]

possibly you have the slightly smaller version or superlink verion?

[@TheBotinator300]

that's Awesome man awesome figure and awesome review

[@nitefinderm16]

is that the leader version or voyager version i had both but dont know what happened to either of them

[@philipmartin7730]

First Megatron jets had come out in the late 80's as a mini (BumbleBee/Cliffjumper size). Him and his clone

[@KaisTransformersCorner]

i like how in superlink megatron was called galvertron from the start due to this was ment to be a continuation from armada

[@CJMTactics]

the hole on the back of the tank is for megatrons energon sword to plug in so it can be attached in robot mode.

[@thereisa100chanceiwilllose3]

Actually, the Super Link Megs was a completely new mold, he wasn't even just a repaint.

[@Neowattmk4]

I think he meant Galvatron.

[@blazikenking]

The Japanese version was smaller, and there was a reason. Compare the Energon and Armada Megatrons. Look then at the "rebirth." The smaller version has more continuity consistency seeing as the Armada version's shoulder treads became the shoulder cannons for Energon.

[@ZhaneX24]

Why didn't you show how the tank can actually plug right into the sword slot on the back, and then pull the sword right out when you hold down the tab?

[@ironwolf024]

is an excellent figure, I have it and love it, but you forgot to say that the sword can be removed by entering the tank where they keep the sword and it holds onto the tank, when you remove the tank, it comes up with this grip. is a cool gimik

[@j-frame]

I got this Megatron, which Megatron head is suitable for this body as I want to made a SG Megatron.

[@transfan1988]

To me this mold makes the best Galvatron of all.

[@ultralaggerREV1]

That Megatron seems to be like a cargo transporter

[@runescape228]

Will you be reviewing Shattered Glass Megatron to show off the downsized mold?

[@edsoncarneirodasilva7606]

I just bought it, it's beautiful!!!

[@aaramchase3502]

Did you ever notice the face of the plane mode is the decepticon logo so sick

[@dol_mel7487]

I don't see it I think ur the only one thinking it...

[@jamesautobot]

I have this Energon Megatron. He's in storage at the moment about five hours away but I do have him.

[@primal51]

Regarding the sword in the back issue - the proper way to remove it is to take the tank and push it into the sword chamber, this will lock the sword to the back of the tank

[@DraeonKaiser]

This mold will alway be shattered glass megatron for me

[@mekklord]

Is this the "bigger" or the "smaller" version? I thought there were two of them, one Voyager-sized and the other Ultra-sized... I may be wrong though.

[@edsoncarneirodasilva7606]

This toy is amazing

[@fracturedkoi1]

Use the tank...please use the tank to remove the sword xD. What you referred to as the "force chip" looking bit on the tank is designed to remove the sword from his back.

[@Eucep]

I see very little of unicron in him, the design screams far more the G1 Galvatron to me. Also the sword is easier to get out with the tank from what I recall, but that is a case by case situation if it holds yes or no.

[@FPrimusUnicron]

the superlink version and the pack exclusive version(the second energon version) are the same except that they are smaller, i think ultra rather than leader, and the force chip slot thinghy is for the megatron sword, botcon shattered glass megatron uses the smaller version

[@StevenDolce]

Energon Megatron is called Galvatron in Super Link. Energon Galvatron is called Galvatron General in Super Link.

[@ChiconeStudios]

The way Megatron was designed he was obviously ment to become Galvatron.

[@ChiconeStudios]

And are you going to do the Galvatron figure.

[@agetten216]

Chicone Studios well in superlink he was

[@nickbehun5305]

There is a below the elbow rotation and knee joint in my version of the mold

[@OddDude21]

The spot on the back of the tank is for the energon sword to be inserted then mounted on his arm

[@pious83]

You should watch the video _before_ commenting.

[@OddDude21]

I realized that shortly after commenting. The way he talked about it in the beginning sounded like he really had no idea about it.

[@mangamegs]

OddDude21 I could see tj growing up to be like him.

[@thegaminggolem]

so his Hyper Mode is an X Wing Fighter?

[@David315842]

You certanly didn't forget anything this time around. ;)

[@theflyingdropbear2009]

remember seeing the Shattered Glass variation of this figure too, exact same figure really.

[@dol_mel7487]

Yeah that was the SG megaton hes a pretty cool figure he's actually more of an marvel g1 transformers comics megaton repaint of this figure

[@riicky83]

Never knew his tank had lghts and sounds but then again i never really checked it when i put it on Megatron.

[@MrOddballctf]

I had this toy im just making sure you know you can draw the sword from the canopy using the tank

[@BlacknRedTed]

Nice video but you missed some of the articulation. The arms also have a swivel joint. They also go in and out to the side, and the knees do actually bend to. It has standard articulation lol. I just broke mine out during this review.

[@RichRonMitchy]

As Megatron should be. Right? Megatron is a living weapon with all the best armaments the Decepticon scientist could create!

[@ChuckSkillz]

Megatron's knees DO bend, and you can use port in the back of his tank to remove the sword from his nosecone.

[@TheSwasheBuckler]

Id actually say those stylings on his body are more like Galvatron from G1 than Unicron itself. (albeit Galvatron was styled from Unicron but still)

[@joeyredhat1]

Hmm, guess I'm the only one who gets a Thunderwing vibe from this guy on top of Galvatron. I even used the smaller version as Thunderwings stand in until they made the generations version.

[@VulpisFoxfire]

Yeah, you got the TRU version that he mentioned.

[@Godzillawolf1]

He's right, the knees do have joints.

[@dr.iron_bat_prime2.0]

I saw the Galvatron vies ion and I now want it.

[@Dezerath]

for his tank the hole at the back is for a sword blade

[@cik105]

A downscaling and retool of this mold might be a good Brainwave.

[@dol_mel7487]

No NO NO DONT even GO THERE

[@godofzombi]

the white blue and green makes him look like Thunderwing.

[@oakland002]

This is how bight each transformers SHOULD be

[@LodanSD]

I Totally forgot it had batteries, which for me is usually a bad sign, but I just checked, and no batteries in the compartment!

[@RichRonMitchy]

He's still Bad Ass Man! They did make a Galvatron version which sells for than this version. Hey, I like him! That's he's one of the most used Transformers in the Custom world. Many Customizers love his frame, and those ABS of steel. He's still winning. Love those huge Wings. In my POV he is one of the best figures ever made. Remember "My POV" you have voiced your opinion with volume. Check out Frenzy Rumble or Customs by Z and you'll be enlightened dude. A big B.A. Megatron not these lil fries.

[@bluesamoyed]

i brought this Megatron toy as a kid but i got a smaller version pakaged with an energon optimus prime figure that could power link with my other autobot figures.

[@SIGNALFLARED1219]

I see now. The little tanks cannon was the inspiration for fall of cybertron megatrons tank cannon.

[@dol_mel7487]

No it wasn't....

[@dol_mel7487]

It was g1 megatron the orginal most megatron shave th classic cannon on arm thing

[@SIGNALFLARED1219]

Jetfire48 That is not what I meant....

[@sirdino2613]

I have that but It's missing 1 cannon 1 wing gun and the tank and sword 😔

[@snipetysniper]

1:44 Megatron, X-wing fighter mode!

[@jozefsimonic2630]

why does he remind me of Thunderwing's pretender shell?

[@Coolestanimations]

The knees are just incredibly strong ratchets-

[@SwedishSeacon]

What happened to your galvatron?still have my energon megatron.:D

[@Ascension.z]

He's knees and hips he's not a brick

[@Gaia_Gaistar]

+NikTube01 Wait, he does have knees? I want this mold bad but I want him to have super rockin knee action.

[@draconious380]

Perhaps its just me, but his color scheme and the tank+jet also seem to be a nod to Overlord especially since Wing Saber was a nod to Star Saber

[@zilvertron]

The biggest problem with this version is that hes clearly ment to be Galvatron with that kind of stomach, and those darn huge wings! He steals up more space than hes Worth and that is annoying as hell, but his gimmicks suits him just perfectly

[@MrMochiman4]

dude he BECOMES GALVATRON

[@godofzombi]

If the jetmode was black and the tank was blue and white we might even get a Overlord homage out of it...

[@no.stop.6894]

I just got this figure today

[@ahmreviews9352]

You not need to make the sword fall you just attach the tank where the sword is stored and then remove the tank

[@TadpoleMusics]

This is the weirdest color scheme for any megatron ever. It makes him look almost like an autobot

[@dol_mel7487]

Naw not really

[@cubesolver64]

SuperLink Megatron is smaller.

[@dol_mel7487]

Yeah there's two verisons one is smaller one is bigger its for both hasbro and takara verisons

[@1cioda]

can he do cybertron megatron? i would love to hear war he could say about him

[@StevenDolce]

The Super Link version is smaller than this.

[@zoltanperei4789]

The altmode is 100% Thunderwing.

[@Weegee9003]

i agree galvatron fits this figure better

[@ExarAnubis]

his designs are supposed to be a nod to G1 Galvatron

[@MidnightVCoco]

I had the smaller version which came with the mini armada megatron Im not kidding was better that the big version

[@masterfarr8265]

this version of Megs laughs alot

[@killerqueen3951]

Since when was Megatron a xwing tank carrier

[@savagediamonds1120]

for a giant plane hensure is small in robot mode

[@inigmo4egarevanu]

This Megatron reminds me of a giant cyber-goose.

[@freedomofshadows]

thats were the sword suppose to go
