if the 19 cm is true,then this puts the 3rd party megatron at 7.5 tall voyager/USA Ultra size scale.
Personally, gonna wait for BBTS to stock em...will be verified legit then.
OK, Im officially torn on this one now. Its very All Hail Megatron, i.e. cool. Ive already got all three Classics voyager Megatron figures and I think that mold does the job perfectly well. Will probably skip this simply because Id be spending money on something that I dont feel is necessary for me. Roll out a Galvatron like this and Ill be in the lead pack for pre-orders.
-ANY Citybot such as Metroplex and Fortress Maximus
Now, though...I dunno. Now I have to resist getting my hopes up...and like some others have said, wait until BBTS gets them in stock to verify they are legit.
2. no major QC issues

Re: Hegemon (3rd party Megatron) update: more images, size comparison and price! (1333062)
PLEASE CAN SOMEONE WHO OWNS A TF PRIME VOYAGER SIZED PRIME TOY. PLEASE TAKE A TAPE MEASURE & MEASURE THE ROBOT MODE FROM HEAD TO TOE. Because I sincerly doubt this TF Prime Voyager Prime is 7 inches tall. most likely TF Prime voyager prime is around 6 & 1/3 inches tall from head to toe in robot mode.
Takara Masterpiece line,listen well and take notes. This is how a potential Masterpiece Megatron 2.0 can be done. And just to get this out of the way,here are some Masterpieces I would go shoot for next.....

i dont want any prime toys as of yet i was gonna get arcee but look what came along and as for generations is there only one wave to come or what? and movie trilogy ...well ill wait and see whats in that.
You guys and your conspiracy theories are really taking the wind outta my sails...I was super excited for an actual g1- and cartoon accurate Megs who wasnt all "mary-kate and ashley" skinny, had a good mold and was good quality.
If this was available on BBTS or RK it would have been preordered already.
Dont worry, I hear Takara is working on some kind of "subspace pocket" where extra matter would come from to flesh out those thin legs... would also be a great place to stash weapons and the trailer to various truck cabs.

The pic shows that Megatrons head is slightly higher than the top of OPs grill which is 18.2cm (7 1/8th inches). Top of the gun barrel on his back is 20.6cm (8 1/8th inches).

Hmmm. So hes not Masterpiece size for either Prime... I wonder if there IS a Prime that he pairs up with well. Id like to see a comparison pic with Classics Prime.
So, he doesnt really fit with any Optimus Prime, or toy line for that matter?

damn it !! i was really hoping he would go in scale with MP-10. I really wish Takara would make a Megatron that looked like he didnt have skinny legs or at least have better articulation
) so Im not sure Ill be dropping $99 on it, especially considering the amount of other 3rd party characters I need to catch up on (Fansproject Insecticons and Maketoys Giant, mostly). I guess it depends mostly on plastic quality and any mold issues once people start getting their hands on him. Still though, top-notch from what I can see here.

Id really like to see more pics of him next to Classicsverse figs but this may very well be the first 3rd party toy Ive purchased in quite some time.
Really impressive. Im pretty happy with my United Megatron (and his G2 incarnation, Classics Megatron
He looks pretty good. Im not to worried about the scale thing, scale has never really bothered me. Really the only things I would change are the clear plastic and maybe find a better way to hide the trigger on his back.
Personally i never really the 3rd party figures, not interested in getting the insecticons or primes etc...

Re: Hegemon (3rd party Megatron) update: more images, size comparison and price! (1332798)
Re: Hegemon (3rd party Megatron) update: more images, size comparison and price! (1332849)
This is a must for the price i think its bang on for what you get the size the weopons look great and alt mode is class its about time this was done
Ill wait till people get their hands on him to find out what the QC ctors are. He does look grand but I wish they would have done a better job with the back of his legs instead of leaving them looking hollowed out.
As for size, I have my FP insecticons right next to my classics Megatron and it does appear to no be too r off from the size of the classics version.
The size of this guy is a bonus i always seen megatron as slighty taller and bulkier? compared to optimus prime
Its going to be an expensive year with all these amazing 3rd party figures i cant see much of my money going to retail this year with sixshot, megatron, arcee, runna brothers and trailbreaker in the makeing
the reason I think this site is a ker. is because yesterday had a different site that showed pics of the 3rd party megatron with some hercules constructicons. this 3rd party megatron appeared to be a tall $27 usa 8 inch ultra or short 8.5 inch leader sized toy next to the voyager sized hercules constructicons.
Taking from previous pictures, My guess is that his sword splits into pieces, and makes different combinations. That pickaxe is part of the sword. At least, I think so.

Report problems you experience here.Seibertron.com - The Ultimate Transformers Resource
-Galvatron-Rodimus needs a bad guy to abo-Imean kick his ass with.
An online store by the name of 3rd Party store has posted a pre-order page for this figure, including new images! Just click any of the images to get to the pre-order page.
the puzzling part is the newest pics/info list this 3rd party megatron at 19 CM tall. that translates to 7.5 inches tall.
Sorry,Todays pics with the site make no sense. That TF Prime voyager sized prime is no where near around 7 inches tall. this site list this 3rd party megatron height as 19 CM which translates to 7.5 inches tall in robot mode. yet the pic with 3rd party megatron next to TF Prime voyager prime show almost the same exact robot height. with 3rd party megatron being only a 1/3 of a robot head taller than tf prime voyager prime.
Hopefully this isnt some malicious troll running this site trying to make donkeys out of fellow ns,trying to steal money/credit card info. or just trying to get a few laughs.
Still, nice pics to look at though

Re: Hegemon (3rd party Megatron) update: more images, size comparison and price! (1333271)
getting back to size,i was hoping it would be at least 8 inches tall in robot mode. so it could be a similar size scale to ith leader who is around 7 & 3/4 inches tall in robot mode. i was dreaming it would be AEC 9 inches leader size but somehow knew that was just a pipe dream based of the ct all the pics showed a robot mode that just wasnt wide nor bulky enough to merit leader toy bulk + wideness in robot mode.

Looks nice, and that price isnt too unreasonable. I think I can pass though, I already have Henkei Megs and he suits the purpose just fine. If this was more like $60 then I might consider.
Re: Hegemon (3rd party Megatron) update: more images, size comparison and price! (1333077)
$99 isnt bad for a 3rd party figure but its still pricy for the size, it is pretty much just a ncy voyager. Plus ctor in shipping & tax and its going to be closer to $150. Its cool but not that cool, $50 or $60 would be a perfect price range for this.
The figure is slated for a June 2012 release, costs $99, weighs 1KG (roughly 2 punds), is 19 cm tall and comes with a previously unknown pick axe.
Im very skeptical of this site... Im going to wait for BBTS or RobotKingdom to get the figure. To me, this reeks of some sort of e-crime waiting to happen.

their is no way that TF Primes voyager prime is around 7 inches tall.
Re: Hegemon (3rd party Megatron) update: more images, size comparison and price! (1333034)
if the 19 CM is true for this 3rd party megatron. then this means those hercules constructicons,some are deluxe size & some are short voyager size like animated lugnutz height. if this 19 cm is true then that TF Prime voyager prime is a very tall voyager 7 inch robot mode.

Theres one big issue I see here. The inside of the legs are lined with translucent plastic for no particular reason. Now Im sure Im not the only one here who can agree that this is a horrible design choice. Seeing as said plastic is housing two major joints intended to bear the weight of the figure. Now with Hasblow I can see such a mistake easily being made. But when a n company whom should be expected to put a great deal of thought into a figure does something like this, like when Fansproject made the panels that hold colossus arms in place so thin, it just makes me want to scream...
Now, though...I dunno. Now I have to resist getting my hopes up...and like some others have said, wait until BBTS gets them in stock to verify they are legit.

I am totally already on board for this...at a hundred bucks easily worth the most quality Megs we have seen in a LONG time.
exactly its the same reason i havent preordered giant from upgrade commander as its the first ive heard of them.
But... THIS I WANT TO GET!!! he looks awesome but im a bit concerned about the size of him he appears to be half the size of the MP prime so he would be just smaller than galvatron??
