Concept Alternators: Megatron

Post by Octopus Slime »

Not sure if this has been discussed yet. But what kind alternator would you like to see for Megatron?

I vote for the Le Baron.

I'd personally like to see a Hum-Vee. I saw a good kitbash of one once. Was very impressed.

Ooh! I would've gone with a tank, but I like the Humvee idea. You could mount a cannon-like gun on top that becomes his fusion cannon. :up:

The question that would leave us with would be "On the arm, as in G1 or on the shoulder, as in G2?" My vote would be to make an option for both. I'd prefer the shoulder, just because i really like the G2 Megs tank look.

Alternator Megatron?

Post by ColdBain »

If there was to be an Alternator Megatron then there is only one car I want to see him as. They need to get a fancy license for the Alternator line obviously, so for me, it would be...

THE DOLORIAN!

A Dolorian would be perfect for Megatron, it's stainless steel texture and all that... (that's the car from Back to the Future by the way). I've probably spelt the name wrong, but besides that, as far as silver looking cars go, I can easily see Megatron as a Dolorian. A Hummer isn't a bad idea either, though I imagine in keeping with the scales of the other figures it would be a lot bigger, even in coparison to the Dodge Ram that was Optimus Prime.

I like the hummer and the delorian idea.

I would also like to see a Optimus Prime that turns into a methadone clinic.

botcon confirmed that if a Megatron was going to be produced it would have been the XLR.
Woulda, coulda, shoulda says Hasbro...because alternators are on hiatus in anticipation of the movie.

sucks,as that wouldhave been a great mold for megs.

What's to suggest that they won't un-cancel and pursue development after the movie runs its course? That's about two years down the road, granted, but...

If anything, it's more likely to happen then (as an XLR or other vehicle) since the movie will generate public attention for the brand and manufacturers will be more willing to send out licenses.
