That's actually kind of a good thing since those kinds of faces became a sort of staple with nearly every Transmetal toy from 1998-2000 having those kinds of facial expressions.Gearslide wrote:Sabrblade wrote:This:Gearslide wrote:...Except for that goofy 1980s/90s Ninja Turtle Toy-esque mouth.

It's a shame though, that instead of looking like that, the mouth looks like it's from this:

Please make a second run of this Year's Megatron, and sell them to more than one person this time. This is a figure the fandom has been waiting 11 years for, and you did you customers a MASSIVE disservice by selling out your stock to the first person in line on saturday morning.
People spend upwards of 2 or 3 THOUSAND DOLLARS to get to your events and buy your products.
The least you could have done is wait until the afternoon to lift your one per customer limit and at least give people a chance.

I'm pretty sure they are on Hasbro Ironhide

Nope, I'm looking at my Ironhide now. The Combiner port is black, not red, and the crotch piece is red, among other changes.

The red must be stickers. The hands are unpainted, the HFG is the right color and the lacking of paint is prevalent on the legs as well. That is CW Ironhide with the stickers
I'm thinking Jesse customized his Ironhide, painting the combiner peg red, himself. He's custom-painted his figures before.Nik Hero wrote:D-Maximus_Primal wrote:Nik Hero wrote:D-Maximus_Primal wrote:Nik Hero wrote:Can we see those Ironhide stickers on a Hasbro Ironhide.

You're right, it is Hasbro, but the Combiner port and crotch piece look to been painted. It's not just the front, the sides are that color too.

I'm doing something wrong. No matter what I try it either falls out, launches out, or won't go in and I feel like I'm going to break the toy. Anyone else have any advice or clarifications?

Hey @AllsparkNews, @seibertroncom, @tfw2005, @TFormers, and @BotCon fans everywhere, are you ready for some Magnaboss decal instructions?
Let's start With Megatron. While not part of Magnaboss, he has decals on Ironhide's sheet. Pred symbol & dragon eyes. There are 8 Megatron eyes on the sheet. The extras are there because of how tiny they are - you will have spares if you tear or loose one.

Actually, the more I think about Megatron having a Dinobot spark crystal, the more I think about the untapped possibilities of stories for it. After all, Megatron DOES take the form of a T-Rex twice, and a dragon is more or less a winged dinosaur. Magmatron was turned into a Dinobot in US continuity, and a good number of Predacons have been of the saurian variety.
It would've been an interesting story to think that during the Great Reformatting, Cybertronians had a choice of faction. For some reason, if Dinobots and their descendants were looked down upon by "polite society" of Cybertron for perceptions of lack of processing power or Wheeljackian origins or whatever, they chose to be affiliated with the Predacon cause. What if Megatron was one of these disenfranchised Dinobots who chose to become a Predacon and take the name of the great Decepticon leader to prove himself against a world that discriminated against him? He could have recruited others like Terrorsaur, THE Dinobot, and just about everyone from BW Neo. Then, the Dinobots could've had a hand in saving Cybertron during Beast Machines, and had an engaging arc of character development.
It's a left-field theory, but I think it would've been a more interesting origin for BW Megatron than what we got.
