Title:
Megatron
Description:
Megatron (2002)
Part of the first wave of Heroes of Cybertron, this figure is functionally the same as the first Super Collection Figure Megatron. Like all the standard Heroes figures, he is cast in transparent plastic, then painted over, save for the eyes and a small patch on the back of his head, giving him a light-piping gimmick. However, there are a few other tiny deco differences, most importantly (and noticeable) being the addition of a black circle on the muzzle of his back-mounted gun barrel, and the back of his midsection is painted light gray rather than red like the SCF. He’s also a cooler super-light-gray than the SCF figure.There is a running change variant of this figure, which adds a bit of red paint to the raised bit on the back of Megatron’s fusion cannon, a detail from the animation model missing from the SCF Megatrons.Megatron was re-released in 2006 as part of a short-lived Heroes of Cybertron revival, celebrating the 2006 DVD release of the original The Transformers: The Movie. This version was cast in opaque off-white plastic and is virtually identical to the original SCF Megatron, with the unpainted back-barrel and red-painted mid-back. At best, in certain lights the 2006 Heroes version is an ever so slightly warmer light gray plastic than the SCF.
