Re: Question about Activators
Activators Megs is a nice enough figure - though he has some large propellors hanging off his back.

Re: Question about Activators
Probably too young for the flimsy Activators version. The McDonald's version would be your best bet for now.

Re: Question about Activators
Activators Megatron wasn't all that well-executed. The robot mode looks good, but the transformation to vehicle mode would be difficult for a three-year-old and there's a lot of gearing and other small parts that could break easily with some abuse.
Bumblebee is still the best of that bunch, and would probably hold up well since it doesn't actually use any gears and its Activator mechanisms are fully enclosed.
Then again, Bumblebee's Legends toy is pretty awesome, too, more show-accurate than the Activator and cheaper.

Re: Question about Activators
Although I'd recommend the activator over the legends figure for Bumblebee for young kids, simply due to the size.
And Grimlock is a very good Activator as well - I'd put him up there with Bumblebee.

Re: Question about Activators
Funny that should be mentioned - I'd argue the Leader-class toy is VERY kid-friendly.
Transformation is quite simple - only issue that might be had with it is the force needed to move the ratcheted joints.

Re: Question about Activators
Yeah, I'll second the leader version. It's very sturdy for kids. He might need a little help from Dad to transform him, and the swords might need to be put aside for the time being, but other than that he's A-1!
Cheers!

Re: Question about Activators
I think BB or some other Activators are pretty tough little toys but Megs does seem a little fragile in comparison.

My nephew is 3 year old and he's having a blast playing with Bumper Battlers. And they're indestructible.
