Would you prefer Takara do Megatron or Shockwave next in their masterpiece line?

Would you prefer to live with Apollyon or Quakewave?

Apollyon

Like I've said before there is "poetry" in Apollyon and Quakewave being 3P-made:

OK, bear with me...

Optimus (Leader) and Ultra Magnus (City Commander) are tractor trailers, represented by official releases.

Megatron (Leader) and Shockwave (Steward of Cybertron) are guns, represented by (lets hope) excellent third party releases.

Yay patterns!!!

So I'm good with them.

Good point that Hasbro/Takara may not invest too much design work on guns.

3P's can.

Don't have much hope for an MP Megatron 2.0 in his true G1 form as a Walther P38. Shockwave is a maybe.

But I'll give Takara designers the challenge to give us MP Blitzwing and MP Astontrain.

MP Blitzwing can come with football coach in a locker!

I would like to see a new MP G1 Megs that is primarily the Tank mode but has a respectable (and intended) gun mode in order to combine the best of both worlds. I guess he would be a Triple Changer.

lol, yes that's a must!
And include his "Blitzwing gun" which Megatron used in Transformers the Movie to kill Optimus Prime.


For Astrotrain, include a cosmic rust fragment.

I would prefer to see a MP Galvatron then Shockwave. I don't think they will make a new gun version of Megatron as good as Apollyon.

Takara needs to revisit Megatron with their new designer at the helm

Well said Protoman. I for one am not that impressed with either Apollyon or Quakewave both of them are good to certain extents same goes for any 3P MP scaled figure, while they do the best to represent the character they all seem to be off, close but not close enough. With that being said I do own a lot of MP scaled 3P figures and I would sell them all in a cyber second to get the official ones.
