Obviously you couldn't look through it to aim at a target while the stock is properly placed against your shoulder to to absorb the recoil.


Fictional toy based on a fictional show the irony yes?

Megatron never shot real bullets and never had real shell casings eject out of his gun mode you could say his resemblance to a real gun is just a disguise
to hide the fact hes a cybertronian weapon
FYI the scope mounted on the gun is on the part that slides back and fourth when fireing as the shells exit so trying to look though it while it fires would knock you out

Wow, that was a really awesome read! as someone who appreciates real life handguns that was a pretty fun comparison. Not entirely accurate, but still quite cool with the details they were able to work in

Oh now that is interesting. The way the scope is mounted here would work as it's mounted on the frame and not on the slide!

The magazine, on the other hand, is impossible without heavily modifying how the mag release works.

FracturedKoi, how well does the silver paint job on MP-36 compare to real gun metal on your Walther P38 or other similar firearms? I know a lot of people are miffed that this new Masterpiece Megatron doesn't have chrome accents like the G1 toy, and are attributing the lack of such to a design choice of cartoon accuracy, but could it be that the shiny silver paint better emulates a real gun's metal color and texture as well, making MP-36 a little more "real world" accurate, despite its odd proportions and missing details compared to the G1 toy and the actual gun it's based upon?

You'll never find any firearm that's nickel plated or any such chromed appearance like that from the factory. Nickel plated p38's do exist, but the nickel plating was added after the war by the people who brought them back at trophies.

Megatron's paint scheme is purely animation accurate. If the color scheme of this toy could even possibly be compared to anything, it's closest to a stainless steel finish and there are no p38's or p1's that were ever made out of stainless steel; they're all parkerized steel.

When I get back from vacation, I'll take a picture of my PPK, it's stainless steel.

Interesting stuff. So, the G1 Megatron toy is actually more of a vanity trophy than a serious weapon. LOL! No wonder he resents his alt mode so much!

I was going to mention that The Man from U.N.C.L.E. gun has the same silencer and scope and a similar stock and that the sight is mounted lower on the body not on the slide - but I think that has been pretty much covered now.

A fun comparison to see would be with a 1960's U.N.C.L.E. toy gun.

Do you also have Apollyon? As I feel that figure replicates the original Walther rather well, aprt from it being too wide.

I do not have Apollyon. I was waiting on Takara to finally come out with an official one! I'm not disappointed at all by its robot mode, but yeah, his gun mode is not to my liking. But it's not like I'll have him in that form often anyhow.

I haven't forgotten about taking pics of "Browning" (my KO) and my PPK/S or other firearms. I've been really tied up with this whole wedding planning thing. On a somewhat related note, I'll be selling off chunks of my collection. It'll take me time to hunt through boxes and boxes to compile a list...but that'll be done in due time. I'll try to get those pictures taken and uploaded here Saturday or Sunday. Thanks for all the great feedback and discussion, guys :D

Awesome photos! I've always wanted to see how the Megatrons size up against a real P38. Does anyone happen to know if there's ever been a 3rd party megs that's actually 1:1 scale with the real gun? Honestly, I'd buy a Megatron at 1:1 scale if they made one.

A trophy or an officer's custom, yeah. I mean just look at the scrollwork!

* Omega Lock
* Primus Cyber Key, coattail panel
* Powerlinx Comettor
* Cyb Jetfire R gun and missile
* RiD Galvy dragon head, beast arms
* DotM Ironhide windshield, R hood assy.

Weapon: Light-Saber Sword
ciano wrote:Awesome photos! I've always wanted to see how the Megatrons size up against a real P38. Does anyone happen to know if there's ever been a 3rd party megs that's actually 1:1 scale with the real gun? Honestly, I'd buy a Megatron at 1:1 scale if they made one.


Thanks! I know both MP figures are oversized and the original is far undersuzed (scales for a child’s hand) but I do not know if there exists a 1:1 scale, third party or otherwise.

I do know there is a third party figure which turns into a Walther PPQ, which is highly appropriate!
