Though Megatron can no longer be a gun I so wish Hasbro/Takara would keep his alt mode a tank. I think that works very well for his and has since Generation2. With the alt mode relatively the same as with Optimus Prime it would be much easier for Magatron to obtain the same iconic body design. Though over the past years since Rid Megatron may have sprouted horns but has otherwise alway been able to obtain the same face for some reason. Body design aside whenever I see an updated/retooled Megatron I can immediately identify it as Megatron because with the face/head sculpt with red eyes there is deffinitely a dark aura of evil being contained and that is all anyone should need to identify the character.

both Megs in the G2 line resemble G1 Megs, for obvious reasons other than him being the same character. I just find it odd that he's not treated as an icon like Prime. And not just in regards to his appearance, but also how, as X-BoB said, the villains in BWII and BW Neo aren't even Megatrons.

you want a simple answer? because G1 megatron just isn't very popular in japan. that, plus the fact that toy guns are illegal in the usa, means that hastak has to get innovative with megatron.

Simple: Megatron isn't the main character therefore he can be changed.

I know BWII Galvatron isn't a real Megatron, But I love his head design, it is Like G1 Megs, with an asian twist

dont all transformers (with the exception of beastwars/machines iguess) have an asian twist?

xbob says there is a Galvatron in BW Neo??

 

And I do agree...poor megs is getting the icon status shelved

No, there was a Megatron in Beast Wars second, but he named Megastorm was a second in command to Galvatron...

 

Is there pics of Super and Ultra Megatron from the Japanese Gen 1 series...

There was a Guy Named Galvatron in BWII and Neo, wh has No relation to G1 Galvatron or Megatron.

 

Super Megatron

Ultra Megatron

Star Giant

I think that they shouldn't change anything about Prime, he just looks cool by the way he is and that's just the way it's been.

Beast Machienes had Bhudist/Hindu/whatever aspects

 

I AM TRANSFORMED!!!
