In Hand Images for Transformers Robots in Disguise TRU Exclusive 5 Step Megatronus

Why did Hasbro go with Megatronus as the villain in RID. Why did Hasbro go Megatronus name at all, even in TFPrime? Is it a trademark thing, is their Megatron trade mark about to expire? You could say that it's better story, but it doesn't have to be that name. I mean in ROTF we established that the Fallen was the first Decepticon, so they have that lore just sitting on the shelf. It has to be some legal shortcut. Or perhaps their focus groups have been saying that Megatron as an Autobot was received much better and therefore Megatron is going to be a "hero" in the near future in most future Tf lore.

Design wise Megatronus is very similar to Megatron. Fusion cannon, helmet, tank, even black and purple styling from IDW stealth bomber megs.

It's odd. I like Megatronus, I think he was neat in the cartoon. But why is the question? What are they after with this name direction?

Once again, how much did that big 5 steps Megatronus cost?

Megatronus =/= Megatron

The Fallen's name before it was taken from him was Megatronus

Megatronus' headsculpt alone looks more like a Pokemon. He's interesting enough, but he's an easy pass; primarily, his hollow legs scared me away.

The Fallen's full name was Megatronus Prime, shortened to Megatronus. It's the short form that Megatron used as inspiration for his name. And it's no trademark thing at all, as Generations Leader Megatron can attest.

Since I was asked by william-james88 for a couple of better shots of Clash of the Transformers Bumblebee and Optimus Prime, got closeups of the front and back of the packaging of these two






Also regarding Megatronus, watch the season finale of RID if you can, clear things up

It's fine for you to show more pics and all.

BUT Y U NO SHOW PRICES?!

I don't know about anyone else, but I need that legion mini Megatronus in my life.

I just went to the TF wiki and I don't see a legion Megatronus; what gives?

Megatron has a soulpatch? Well at least now he can strum the same three chords on his acoustic guitar

Be patient: TFWiki is handled by volunteers, so updates are sporadic and the pages aren't entirely up-to-date most of the time.

I get that. I was asking (poorly worded) if someone knew what wave he was included with. A little more digging and I found him. Part of a two pack that hasn't made it to the US.

Yup, looks like Megatronus will only be available in Clash of the Transformers, and not in the main line.

I think the legions figure actually looks better than this.

And to help out Kanrabat: My guess is about $20-25 American dollars. Correct me if I'm wrong!

Yay, it's another big hunk of plastic, OH THE KIDS ARE GONNA LOVE THESE! -_-

That'd be nice, but Mega 5-Step Optimus Prime has an MSRP of US$29.99 so Mega 5-Step Megatronus will probably be a little more than that at TRU pricing. In their defense they are 11" figures, Hasbro could have been a lot more greedy.

I know that, as a kid, I would never ask for, or allow these disgusting lumps of plastic s@#t near my collection, and would consider it an affront to kids everywhere. As I had a couple of the lever action ones from BW, I AM okay with simple transformations, or auto-transformations, so long as they yield a satisfactory figure... which these are not.

Not to burst any bubbles, but odds are that megatronus is more like 40-50$ cdn

william-james88 wrote:Not to burst any bubbles, but odds are that megatronus is more like 40-50$ cdn

So yet another reason to not get them; man has/tak should just scrub the 1 3 5 easy crap bricks and bring back machine wars styled deluxes, auto morph one way, a simple transformation the other, and they were good figures, not hollow bricks

You guys had some pretty high standards when you were kids. When I was a kid I didn't care about articulation, I just cared if it was a robot that turned into something. And that's really all that drives most kids these days, too.

Here, let me show you something that will blow your mind:



That is the DX Shurikenjin from Shuriken Sentai Ninninger from Japan, it sells for ¥8,984 (about US$73) and is only articulated at the shoulders, and there is literally just a smaller robot sitting in its chest with a funny hat on. It's easily the most ridiculous thing I've seen come out of Super Sentai and that's coming right off a series about trains. It's not a very good looking figure by most accounts, and yet it has been one of the top 5 best selling toys in Japan since February! And that's all toys including girls and collectables. MP Star Saber beat it for one week (1st place) and Legends Leader Megatron a few weeks ago (3rd place), but otherwise this thing has been dominating the toy sales in Japan for about four months now. It was the number three best selling toy for March and number four for April and May.

Kids don't care about articulation, they barely care about looks, they only care about if it's fun or not. I know when I was a kid I'd definitely want the giant 11 inch figure that turned into a tank no matter how simple the transformation was.

I've long since known about megazords and their aposeable ilk (even if they don't even bother with transforming now). I always figured that kids wanted them b/c they looked cool, or b/c they related to them via a fiction. Now, maybe I was spoiled, growing up with BW and such, you can only go so far with that as it dropped off after rid2000 with armada; but these easy-crap things shelfwarm so hard in the cities 'round me, I always wondered if it was b/c they yielded such unsatisfactory robot modes - when compared to any other action figure they just look like garbage; my point remains that they can do simple figures, that are still good.

th... that turret turns around right? please tell me it is not stuck like that. If it's stuck like that, then yeah, it's kind of terrible. If the turret rotates, it's pretty obvious the instructions have the whole turret ass backwards for some reason.

I think the thing that confuses me the most about this, besides what the hell the theme of the individual giant robots is supposed to be, is how the wolf is such a completely unnecessary part of the megazord. It's not even its own individual limb, it has to combine with the rear of the train zord that forms the rest of the waist and legs. And what is that the torso turns into a dump truck? Yes it is. It is a dump truck. what the hell. We have a ninja, a wolf, a dragon, a dump truck and a train? who was in charge of the mecha for this? I don't even. I just don't even. It's like they got drunk and threw darts at a board full of "things that could be mecha"

Yes, I believe super sentai (or whatever) has officailly, now and forever, jumped the shark. They are partsforming, theme-less, gibberish. But because its 'super sentai' people in japan and wherever will continue to support it.

It does rotate for the transformation, look at the Instruction on the back of the box. However, it's locked in place in vehicle mode by pressing it down.

Perhaps, and, while I admit that base mode has a certain '80's japanese obtuse charm to it; it will never have a place in my collection (unless it was a gift from someone)

And yet this figure has still been in the top five best sellers since Februray. The point is (because I didn't post it to talk about Super Sentai) that...

Hellscream9999 wrote:I always figured that kids wanted them b/c they looked cool, or b/c they related to them via a fiction.

... just as easily applies to Transformers. Megatronus does look cool; he's a big, black and purple robot that turns into a tank and he's currently active in the cartoon. Why wouldn't a kid want it? Because it isn't super articulated? You just said looks and relatability were enough to make something a top seller. Around me the 3-Steps sell as well as any Combiner Wars figures so I'll continue to believe that kids will just buy what they like regardless of how bendy it is.

Just to put in my two sense. I grew up on Beast Wars and I still collect them when I find some I dont have for a good price (I missed a lot of the transmetal 2s). I got an armada blurr once, a figure which came later, and he deeply dissapointed me. The fact that he transformed into a cool car wasnt enough and i have gotten rid of him since. I dont thnk I was a privaledged or snooty child but I could smell bs, and thats what that Blurr was as a transformers toy.

Anyways... that base mode is HILARIOUS!

EXACTLY, kids get to a point where a brick that looks cool, just becomes a doorstop that looks kinda cool. That's why I skipped all of armada, the mini-cons, Unicron and the exclusive hoist repaint being the sole exception, 'cuz I saw he had full articulation (I highly recommend any version of the figure)

I stand by my point that simple figures can be awesome action figures, Machine Wars and the basic assortment of BW validates that. I would imagine if you gave a kid the CHOICE between these bricks and some MW or BW easy figures, they would probably choose the ones that can do stuff and pose and everything; there's a reason all regular action figures have joints, it's because kids want to do more than hold them and crash them into stuff

Seibertron's very own TRozok21 has helped us some more by offering close up shots of the new Toysrus Exclusive Clash of Transformers 3 step (hyperchange) redecos, which he had found yesterday.

He has also shared that these two are $27.99 cdn.

Here are the new pictures and we can make out some interesting details. It seems they are retools as well as redecos since Bumblebee has a facemask. They also come with exclusive weapons that were not included with the original releases. Dont bother looking anywhere else for more pics, they just don't exist. So thanks again TRozok21.

Dont worry about it, you help us enough, dont let any of us pressure you. You are our ace up our sleeve for scoops, wouldnt want to lose you.

And if a price is really needed NOW, well here:

Megatronus is 50 AUD in australia which is almost at par with Canada. It's actually 47.14 $ cdn but how much do you wanna bet that they will make it a clean 50$ It is also the same size and price point as the Mega Optimus which is also said to be in that price range.

He is the same height too:



Oh and before i forget to mention it, that means he is leader size, not voyager size.

In regards to the Sentai mecha/PR megazord articulation comparison, I grew up on both Beast Wars and Power Rangers and never viewed the two in the same light or league. One was a line of super articulated transformable robots, while the other was a line that included super stable and solid combining robots. While I did sometimes wish that the megazords were more poseable, I never wanted them to be as poseable as the Beast Wars toys since I felt that, while articulation can be done well for transforming toys, it intruded upon the stability of combining robots, as at the time I had the likes of Magnaboss and Tripredacus to go by, and those two had so many joints that would all too often render them both as floppy, unstable messes, whereas my megazords all kept strong and stable with their limited number of joints. And even later when the first RiD line came out in 2001 with its combiner toys of Rail Racer, Ruination, and Landfill, though those felt a bit more stable than the two beast combiners, I still felt that the megazords were better combiner toys overall with how solidly they held together and stayed firm in their stature.

That said, this is not meant to be an excuse for the lower articulated TF toys, rather, it is meant to explain why I personally let megazords and the like get a pass on their lower levels of articulation vs. the more brick-like TF toys of today. I don't see comparing the bricky TF to megazords as a valid comparison since, to me, they've always been two different kinds of toys with different purposes and standards (transforming robot toys vs. combining robot toys).

The only reason I would have given them a pass was because stylistically, some of them, Gao Icarus specifically amongst others (wild force I believe) looked so well put together with beautiful curves and sleek designs, which is now gone from the super sentai line.

Speaking of Megatronus, Griffin from Ozformers gave a rundown of the toy:

Unfortunately, the elbows are the only bits of articulation... which isn't unusual for a heavy gimmick toy like this one, but really shouldn't be. Look at Legends/Legion class toys that are noted as 5 or 6 step toys, and they usually have more articulation.

The legs are solid from the waist down... the head doesn't move (because it has the tank turret sticking out the back of the head), and the arms are locked at the shoulders because of the "auto-transforming" gimmick of the upper body.
No hand movement, or feet.
Just elbows on a pin.
Mine has now seized up in robot mode (the internal mechanism just isn't working anymore so I can't get it back to tank mode), which is in my last photo with the Mega 3-step Optimus... which makes the arms not sit properly, but it's sad to say that even though it is busted, it doesn't impact on the already limited articulation of this toy.

The turret is attached to the robot head, which locks into place in the depths of the tank mode. The barrel part that is removable (and attaches to the robot forearm), can swivel up and down.
I actually prefer the Legion version, as the cannon can rotate, and the tank looks better.

This Ultra version makes me think of the Tron tanks a little.

So, that giant Megatronus will be a "buy on sale only" thing.

After reading that review, I'm not sure you want to wait for a sale. May just want the legions version.

Youtuber Baltmatrix has posted a video review of the Transformers: Robots in Disguise Mini-cons Velocirazor, Beastbox, RatBat and SandSting. He shows off their transformation, Energon accessories and the bonus Energon shark figure.

Trozok21 is on fire. He has informed us that Toysrus Exclusive 5 step Megatronus, which he recently found, will actually be 39.99$ Cdn. This is better than expected since this figure is leader sizes, same size as RID Mega Optimus, and the voyager sized Clash of the Transformers Exclusives have been priced at 27.99$ Cdn. This later news was also provided by Trozok21 as well as an online listing finally revealing these figures officially.

Below you will find the two official stock photos from the online listing for Tru Exclusive, Clash of the Transformers Bumblebee.

Last but not least, Trozok21 also sent a picture of the Legion Optimus redeco found on the packaging of Megatronus. While this figure was seen before in a two pack in australia, it is interesting to note that the packaging does say it will be sold individually, which does against what was previously found.

The white parts on OP should be black.

I hope this is not bad to say, but Bumblebee's face mask reminds me of his original G1 figure counterpart.

Hmph, well at least they remolded this one.

Today we get news from he big man himself, Seibertron! This is the first sighting we were notified of for Mega Optimus, an upscaled and retooled leader version of the Hyperchange Optimus figure.

Here is what Seibertron had to share about his finding:

Found 3 step mega Optimus prime at target in rosemont, IL just outside of chicago. Price is 31.79

This means the toy should be coming to your area soon if not already be there.

Lucky guy has vipers in his targets; wish cw would show up in my area
