All Hail Segatron!...anybody see this yet?

So in a related hobby (retrogaming), I stumbled upon this the other day! Apparently, it's official TT, and it's Megatron...who transforms into a Sega Genesis (it's called a Megadrive in Japan, which this is). I doubt we'll see a State-side release, but you know what, I'd be all over this thing ...I've heard there was a Prime model that turned into something else, maybe Sega's nemesis?...Super Nintendo?

Here's the link, too funny!

Love the "16 bit" on Meg's chest lol!
As an old vintage videogame collector and TF Collector, I would love to have that and Meg looks quite good.

Like somebody suggested on the site forum, it would be cool to have Optimus as a SNES, let the 16 bit war begin

BBTS has it for 120$... ughhhh....
http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/p...53&mode=retail

I love the concept... but

1: he looks small for a 120$ figure
2: I cant get passed the fact that his torso seems too long and makes him look funky... like his torso is almost as long as his legs...
3: I'd need confirmation that this is going to be a line with other consoles such as SNES Dreamcast... otherwise he wouldnt fit anywhere in my collection...

Cool figure. Even better if you're also into retro gaming. I just think that this idea is about 7 years too late. I personally think that Music Label Soundwave is still the best "CHUG style" Soundwave available but unfortunately I think that at this point most people have a better version of Megatron already (Hegemon, etc) for their classics collection.

I think from Japan site I saw it's around 80 USD, for example this one: 8100 JPY. Better order from there.
