Promoting the Siege chapter of the Netflix War for Cybertron Trilogy cartoon, this War for Cybertron Trilogy redeco of Siege Megatron slathers the Decepticon leader in an extensive paint wash coating to represent accumulated grime and battle scars. Aside from the mold’s usual weapons, Megatron comes with redecos of Siege Firedrive into ”Captive Pinpointer” and ”Captive Lionizer” with the original orange-and-grey color scheme, both with their own respective blast effects. Battle damage aside, Megatron’s grey plastic is molded in a darker shade and his black plastic lacks any hints of brown. He also features metallic silver across his front on the silver sections, serving as a base for the battle damage. This Megatron features tighter ankle joints and a weakened snap, allowing for easier posing.

The unpaintable metallic plastic parts, such as the sword’s blades, the upper thighs, and the joints, are prone to photodegradation.

“Captive Lionizer”, is a redeco in both opaque and translucent orange with silver paint to closely resemble the original Action Master accessory.

The stock render shows Lionizer’s ”cheeks” painted, though this was obviously omitted from the final release due to that part being molded in unpaintable plastic.

Captive Pinpointer” is a redeco of Siege Firedrive, transforming from robot to a ”Dual Rocket-Propelled Grenade Launcher” in 5 steps. As a part of the C.O.M.B.A.T. System, he includes two ”Fire Blast effect” pieces that can be used to simulate his blaster mode firing and can slot onto the various hardpoints found on other figures and weaponry from the same subline to simulate blaster fire or explosions. The outer peg of the effect parts can also attach to 5 mm ports. The actual gun barrel piece can detach from the back, revealing a 3 mm peg, and connect to his arm like a cannon. Due to the size of the piece compared to Pinpointer, attaching Fire Blast parts to his barrels will cause the figure to become too unbalanced to stand.

As with other Netflix series figures, Megatron was exclusive to Walmart in Canada and the United States. Megatron was also available as a Kmart exclusive in Australia.
