Transformers: Age of the Primes toyline discussion 10/27 Update: First look at Megatronus the Fallen

Definitely not a Tarn retool, though funnily enough, the transformation looks to be really similar to the overused Siege Megatron.

So instead of giving us a dedicated Star Convoy, they're instead giving us yet another compromised design. 😒
 

wonko the sane?

You may test that assumption at your convinience.

God damn, that is funnier than it has any right to be. No wonder he fell: it would have been a full time job just keeping ahead of the jokes...

The forearm wheels give me hope that they might at least get the vehicle mode right this time. Unless that's fake kibble. Who knows.

I'm ready for leakers to spill the beans. The guessing game isn't fun anymore. What is this thing and why is it a Titan?

It seems very odd that he'd otherwise be a very faithful Star Convoy, but with a PMOP torso. I'll wait to actually see the toy, rather than make any conclusions based on some blurry box art. We've certainly seen plenty of cases of box art not being all that representative of the actual product, even when it's the art for the character in the box.

I don't have access to my Legacy Vector Prime at the moment. Does he have his PotP symbol anywhere on him like Megatronus does? I don't recall seeing it anywhere. Between that and how Megatronus pulls in influences from his other versions, it makes me wonder if Legacy VP really is just an early AotP VP, or if there might be something else in the works for 2026. I mean, it could just be the lamest possible thing: a repackaged Legacy VP with a PotP symbol paint op added (probably replacing an existing paint op or two at that). I'd be game for HasTak having another go at him though. Maybe pull in some more gold and a second sword from his other versions.

See, now that I would love. Twin sword Vector og concept looked great. A hypothetical AotP Vector would be a great way to make Legacy VP a good Cybertron homage. However I wouldn’t be surprised if he is just an early AotP Prime.

The Star Convoy/PMOP hybrid is tilting my brain, because Star Convoy looking the big Star chest emblem would be a crime. Plus, his og design vehicle mode is a long nose truck. Not a box cab like PMOP or the POTP retool.

Also. The other Prime on the box being a very G2 inspired Liege Maximo has me very intrigued.

Maybe just the Legacy Mold but in like TFO colors? I might go for that.

They’re just about out of marketable extra big characters is my guess. Probably saving the geewun Metroplex remake for later.
