Man' I'm looking forward to all of Maketoys' offering, particularly Apeface and Megatron. With Galaxy Force Starscream in the works, I hope Galaxy Convoy will follow soon.
FT's reveals - not so much. IMHO, FP's Weirdwolf has better proportion in alt mode and its robot mode, compared to say, MT's Cupola or Iron Will, is boring. DX9's Galvatron is better in robot proportion and alt mode. Their Skyfire is the only one that caught my interest, and it's only because it's huge.

I like that MT Megatron a lot and the FT Skyfire is really nice, I'm disappointed with FT Galvatron though. I was excited to see the grey prototype but in colour it doesn't attract me anymore.

MT Megatron is quite impressive indeed. A bit on the bulky side, but looks very solid. Takara will lose a lot of sales on some of these, especially MT Jazz if that turn out great.

That's a very nice alternative take on Megatron. Maybe having 2 Megatrons isn't such a bad idea.

I thought this guy had looked pretty neat when he was first revealed and I'm glad to see that this project hasn't died. I think one of the things I appreciate about it the most is that it doesn't just turn into a gun, but turns into a tank as well. Say what you will about me but I like to leave figures in their alt modes from time to time, and I've never been comfortable with the idea of leaving a gun-mode Megatron on display.

Proportions here are good. This prototype colors remind me this haha : The GT IDW Megatron is on my radar, looks forward to it.

Hot damn, DX9 pulling an MP Megatron out of nowhere!
It looks pretty great - the only thing I'm not in love with are the very flat shins (I love the slight curve to the shins on both the XTB and MT versions), but knowing DX9 the transformation should be solid as a rock. Fiddly parts kept me away from XTB and Maketoys can be 50/50 with this kind of thing.
Tough call - waiting for MT (whom I trust), getting the DX9 (whom I trust far more), or checking out Gladius since he's a different beast altogether (but I trust that company as far as I can throw them). What to do... what to do....

Kind of prefer the Occular Max Tailbreaker and Hoist.
I usually get all my 3rp Party from chimungmung, but it seems he's not having pre-o for them. Any suggestions for a few good shops that will mail to Europe and have OC's?
