even if you don't sell these as figures I'm sure plenty of us would appreciate some kind of instructions or at least sketches of how your engineering works for the whole project. I'd buy 'em anyway...

Wow!!!! looking really really good. I really like how you've concieved the bot mode, and can't wait to see it further refined/polished. As a custom this would look incredible next to MP Prime.  :thumb

 

I'm just curious as to what you're planning for accessories, hopefully an energon mace. :thumb  Also what are you planning to do for the barrel of the the gun in alt mode, and will it be somehow interated into the bot mode?

 

Again awsome job, and best of luck with future progress. :thumb

well if you would like to know if it would look good beside a masterpiece optimus ...take a look at the pics bellow..... also the barrel might me inward (see pic for clarification.... also ther will be definitly be a mace ..and also a special lazerbeak (with my own twist) that might become part of megatron...but there will be further accessories like a silencer and well see the pics bellow for clarifications...

this is the version of the barrel that i was talking about... (desert) and some of the accessories such as possibly a short silencer and search light like the u-nhb...

and finally a progress report of the current progress of megatron....

Still lookin' good. :thumb

quik question for you Mark,are you planning on somehow adding the gun barrel onto his back to keep him more accurate in bot mode. and if so, how will you incorperate it into his gun mode?

yes the barrel will be incorporated on his back ...every elements (anime)that megatron g1 has in robot mode will be there ... as for what it will do in gun mode ,my best solution is a search light like on the u-nbh gun (black gun pic).... but that is still in the works....

*Wonders if the "MP Megs can't be a gun!!"people will finally shut up?

Excellent work. I love the face mold. Now if this toy can be made at home imagine what the folks in Japan and China can do if they wanted to.

Do you have room inside the barrel/chest when it's in gun mode, or are the pistons in the way?

 

Perhaps you can split the barrel (not his chest, the "G1 Gun barrel) lengthwise, add a hinge mechanism of some sort, and then have the halves tucked inside the barrel/chest when it's in gun mode....

 

Something I've been meaning to ask you: why not have his feet flip into his legs like G1 Shockwave? That way, you don't have to disassemble his feet when he's in gun mode.
