4.0 out of 5 stars

Finally, a movie Megatron who is evenly proportioned and has a satisfying alt mode. My big problem with the first movie Megatrons was the so-so alt modes. They weren't convincing (even for a "cybertronian" type vehicle), and was more of a robot folded up under the wings. With the ROTF Leader Megatron figure, I didn't like how his face was exposed in vehicle mode, and how horribly out of proportion his arms were (1 huge arm with very little articulation, it could only rotate forward and backward; while the other arm was tiny, but with some range of motion). Luckily, this figure alleviates those complaints, easily making him the best movie Megatron yet.


Pros
- Cowl/cloak looks very good in robot mode, and can be taken off to give full mobility to the left arm.
- His fusion cannon makes a welcome return to form, this time as his mechtech weapon. It attaches onto the side of his arm, as opposed to replacing his lower arm and hand.
- Transformation is relatively simple and fun
- Vehicle mode actually has some articulation (trailer can rotate to simulate turning)
- Mechtech weapon isn't over-sized, and looks great in both modes.
- Articulation is pretty good, he can hold many poses without any balance issues.
- Mangled face is a nice touch
- Very solid, durable figure.
- Excellent vehicle mode


Cons
- Cowl/cloak doesn't snap on anywhere in vehicle mode, but sits nicely over the rear.
- A bit on the small side, about an inch taller than a Deluxe figure.
- Would have liked a little more paint apps on certain parts of him (forearms, angled chest panels, and feet)


He's a fantastic figure with a simple but fun transformation and a very unique appearance that, to me, feels more like the Megatron character than any of the last movie figures. I only wish he were a bit bigger. I highly recommend him to collectors and kids alike.
