I Hoped This Would Be Better.....But It's Not |

[@ElGordoBandito]

You know, this is kind of a shame because G2 Megatron was already a tank, and that upgrade was orchestrated in the comics by COBRA. This could have been the big purple and green love machine Megs and would have probably worked a lot better, but they went with G1 Buckethead and a HISS tank for brand recognition.

[@rambles8346]

Speaking of brand recognition, the already green military vehicle turns into Bumblebee... Like not Hound, or even Beachcomber. No... It just HAD to be ANOTHER Bumblebee.

[@andrewbaker2144]

@@rambles8346 exactly its such a shame

[@rambles8346]

@@andrewbaker2144 shame might be a strong word, but like throw fans a bone. A GI Joe fan can appreciate a transforming vehicle without having to be treated like they've never heard of another franchise. The cuddly yellow buddy doesn't have to be retooled to be a military vehicle when they have one that is already either a military vehicle or a buggy that can just be made green. It could be a whole comic arc detailing Beachcomber going from pacifist to front lines because of some incident.

[@rambles8346]

Or just have it be a tie in with G2 Megs, i am still getting the HISS tank because it will be Megatron with Cobra Commander on his back manning a turret. Baroness is probably going in a bin...

[@DiggitySlice]

That's not the main problem here.

[@SpaceManRD]

​@@DiggitySlice It's definitely one of them, though. Half of the tank is just sort of hanging off the robot mode because they very clearly couldn't figure out any other way to reconcile it with G1 Megatron's design, beyond just having it form a sort of shell to hide all his gray in vehicle mode. They _almost certainly_ wouldn't have had to do any of this if they'd gone with a unique design for his robot mode that actually incorporated the kibble.

[@angelriverasantana7755]

Make him a Japanese exclusive gun mode toy lol

[@VulpisFoxfire]

The weird thing about this is...I don't remember Megatron ever turning into a HISS. In the GI Joe/TF crossovers I know of, he either became a more 'standard' tank (G2), stayed his normal self, or was frozen in his gun mode (Devil's Due). Optimus Prime, on the other hand, *did* end up as a Hiss in the Dreamwave comics, a red one--I'm trying to remember if someone's done that already, even a third party. (Of course, my favorite gag from the Devil's Due run was that while Cobra Commander has a form-locked Megatron as a sidearm, his *ride* was Starscream, turned into a Rattler (along with the other Seekers). Talk about walking to yourself... :-) )

[@usernamehere8180]

I think a repaint bludgeon for this mold would look cool.He has the samurai “skirt” with the missiles and the massive shoulder pads.

[@andrewbaker2144]

i agree

[@ВасилийМорозов-л7х]

It'd be fun for this theoretical Bludgeon (if it's not a G. I. Joe collaboration and doesn't need a cockpit) to have the backpack fold out and become scabbards, a rack for some tanegashima-esque gun and a back banner with a Decepticon insignia.

[@Watcherprime_]

I get they they wanted to keep Megatron's g1 design integrated with the tank, but i think this was a missed opportunity to design Megatron around the tank and utilize more of the alt kibble.

[@Lukusprime]

This thing reminds me of old Prime Wars Leaders, like Powermaster Optimus. Good altmode, but a robot mode that’s basically a cool-looking brick that has *just* enough articulation to be considered passable, and more hollowness than you can shake a stick at. Plus a big pet peeve of mine is when they incorporate the thigh rotation into the same part as the hip articulation so whenever you rotate the thigh you expose the mushroom peg and all the hollowness. It also limits articulation somewhat.

[@octobotimus]

Not even prime wars leaders were this expensive yet hollow.

[@cyankoopa8111]

It's why I have no problem with the downsized leaders of the WFC trilogy and Legacy. I can't see a single hollow part on Scourge or on Optimus, they're smaller but they're so much more premium than the larger prime wars leaders.

[@the_collector_of_different_toy]

I feel this and the upcoming bumblebee would’ve maybe turned out better if they would’ve just made them original characters

[@LeeONardo]

All crossover figures should be unique characters to add to your collection. I don't want another Megs to go with my 35th anniversary one. And I don't want a fig which is so "designed by Hasbro", both GI Joe figs look so cheap.

[@forumicebreaker]

I agree.

[@geo-fry6372]

I feel like if this came out 5+ years ago (and was less expensive) people would regard it better.

[@episodenull]

I still cannot believe how chintzy this thing is. For $90 USD to have dollar-store molding on the forearms/fists and thighs is inexcusable. And they couldn't even paint the gray parts silver? Just appalling.

[@ssjMaximum22Goku]

Hasbro's really pushing it lately. If stuff like this sells well, then we should expect worse figures at higher prices in the future.

[@BoisegangGaming]

I really wish Megatron had been more black in his robot mode rather than looking so out of place. Serious missed opportunity for it to look more cohesive.

[@scourgeprime263]

Every time I look at him I get the feeling "This toy would have rocked in the late 80s or early 90s!" (kinda like Maverick if he would have been released in the early 2000s) and I am starting to believe this was their design intent? "What if we made a toy like this 20 years ago?" Of course back then he would be built without so man hollow pieces.

[@Itransformit]

THANKS for showing the whole transformation! I love you extra much now because you did that! Also, Megatron with the shoulder pads folded out looks quite cool.

[@DoinItforNewCommTech]

I've been wanting Human Alliance 2.0 for years. I wish it was better. Not in scale, no ankles, way too much back kibble, and that **hollowness**. Love the headsculpt, but sadly that's all I love about it. Like, Megatron ALREADY turns into a tank! We should have this in the bag at this point. How hard could it possibly be to make a Megatron that turns into a tank? I feel like it suffered a lot just to make it scale with GI Joe figures

[@chevy-is-a-good-boy]

This set is still super easy to find at Australian retail (for several months now) & it looks to be shelf warming. Too bad they half-arsed this because it's probably the only crossover that really makes sense/works. This was never going to be great because it needed to cost twice as much for proper engineering to be implemented into the design. The only good thing(s) is that you get a H.I.S.S. Tank with nice tampos (instead of the usual ugly/shiny stickers), and the retro O-Ring style Baroness. But as a Joe fan I already have a H.I.S.S. and OG Baroness, so all that's left is a hideous Megatron & some novelty.... no thanks, Hasbro.

I just can’t get over how hideous robot mode is for both Megs and Bumblebee. ESPECIALLY for the insane prices, if you are going to charge that kind of money, you had better be giving everything with the figure. It looks really clumsy, and I wish they had done this long anticipated collaboration more justice. 4/10 imo

[@DoinItforNewCommTech]

Yeah, for the price they're asking ($104 AUD), this should be on par with leader-class engineering. But all that hollowness and the lack of articulation makes it feel like an upscaled deluxe

[@makutateridax584]

@@DoinItforNewCommTech Exactly. Where is the budget going on this? Is it all going to Baroness? Its definitely not going to the engineering because the figure transforms badly and has so much kibble hanging off the back and the articulation is worse than a deluxe figure.

I had a weird moment one night when I suddenly had this feeling that these weren’t going to be as good as I hoped and canceled my preorders. I don’t feel bad about that choice at all now.

[@alexholker1309]

The stinginess of the tooling is a bit much. The raw materials don't actually contribute much to the cost of a toy like this, if the bulk prices of plastic pellets are anything to go by, so Hasbro could easily have made it a $125 toy instead of a $120 toy and released a vastly superior product. Some hollowness is forgiveable when you need to make room for transformation and articulation joints to operate, but not when you're hollowing out the inside of the fists to save ten cents of plastic.

[@Omicron9999]

It's nice, but Jesus have Transformer prices gone completely out of control. I remember getting my Energon Unicron about 15 years ago for around $50. Now that's the price of a voyager figure they brand as leader class because Hasbro don't make full sized leader class figures for affordable prices anymore. This guy is at least a decent size, but for $100 I expect Titan class. Yeah, I know, covid and economic crash and all that. But it feels like we're all getting mugged right now and it's a big part of the reason I haven't bought any new Transformers in a year.

It’s already out in Australia too. Picked one up on sale for the same price but in AUD. This is one of those figures I think breaks a lot of the taboos of transformers (parts forming, hollowness, articulation, kibble) but still manages to appeal to me in so many ways. But that’s also because I’m a massive joes fan and have a tonne of the 3 3/4” figures to run with it.

Even if it’s hollow, I really just love this figure. As my first Megatron it’s great and I’m going to get the Soundwave as well.

[@RadimentriX]

yeah, i love collabs, they're the reason why i even started getting transformers. the BTTF, Ghostbusters, Top Gun and Jurassic Park collabs were the first original transformers that i had to have and i have added a lot more studio series and legacy figures since then. i also like the 2 live action GI Joe movies but this figure here is... i dunno... the alt mode isn't really my cuppa tea, i guess one has to be an original GI Joe fan for that but i'd still get it... if it wasn't for all those hollow parts. there are deluxe and voyager sized figures that manage to hide their gaps better. they're an eyesore on this one, if you'd wanna show him in his megatron mode. really a shame 😕

[@forumicebreaker]

Thank you for sharing! I didn't want another H.I.S.S. but when this Megatron was first revealed I was very interested. That interest really dropped in the last couple months and I cancelled my pre order, though. Lot of great points you brought up here. The Baroness figure made the packaged less interesting to me. Having a G.I.Joe scale Transformer was the biggest appeal to me, especially being able to use figures interactively with it. The Real American Hero figures were always getting better sculpts as the line progressed from 1982-1994 and Hasbro should have pushed from that point versus just stamping out an "almost" just like the original. Again. As A Real American Hero collector the H.I.S.S. vehicle is cool but kind of sucks in the 21st century. A "new" Megatron should have been more original in design and less angled to try and replicate the exact same regurgitated 1982-1985 years nostalgic stuff produced over the last 20-some years. The "double diablo" cannon should have simply been swapped for a special new turret entirely at best. Unless Cobra had a reason to hide Megatron among a series of H.I.S.S. tanks, stuff as much of the "classic" H.I.S.S. into form makes no sense. Even from the "storytelling" Hasbro reasoning thing, is Megatron an captured Cobra weapon here or what? The G2 Megatron in the Marvel comics is mentioned throughout the comments here (and elsewhere) and I would have been much more interested if that story could have been expanded on in toy form. Something more original that could update or advance A Real American Hero was needed but as nice as this is I just can't add this my collection right now just like I can't add another Duke or Snake Eyes.

My biggest gripe about this is that he should have been a generic land-based army builder like the Seekers are air-based army builders. Don't make him Megatron. Make him a grunt Decepticon and charge $80 for it and sell a bunch of them since the HISS tanks are generic cannon fodder too. Making it Megatron takes away from the army builder aesthetic and made me not want to buy it. I don't think Hasbro brand managers understand the minds of the people who buy the items.

[@forumicebreaker]

Great points. I'd buy what you're selling here over what Hasbro did right now.

[@chuchupow]

Yeah I agree the ult mode is the best part. The robot mode doesn't do it for me with it being G1 Megatron with extra bulk. The shoulders are VERY large that it makes him look like he has tiny baby arms which doesn't do it for me visually. The backpack is a mess and I'm happy they made it detachable. The hollowness doesn't detract me as much as it should because of how it transforms, though I would have liked some panels to fold and clean up the legs. The commander class price tag of $120 CAD is a yikes from me as a fellow Canadian, but then again I have commander class Jetfire on my shelf so it's not that unreasonable. This is an obvious pass for as a masterpiece collector, but I think it's pretty good for what it is and the features they implemented

[@purplewolfranger22]

Unlike this thing, commander class jetfire is an actually good figure that is worth the hefty price. This thing is the most hollow, disappointment of a figure.

"Hold my beer!"

[@coffeeinhandproductions3238]

Though I much prefer Megatron as a G2 styled tank giving him a Hiss tank as alt mode is still a pretty fun idea. The human alliance aspect is neat, but unfortunately is what causes this toy to suffer the most. Looking at the other crossover TFs be it BTTF, Ghostbusters or even Jurassic Park even as pedestrian as the bot modes were there was no human alliance aspect to clutter the toy up or ridiculously upsize it. Probably would have fared better as a Voyager class with improved engineering. The hollowness of the figure even for the purpose of transformation is inexcusable for any toy at this price point.
