Title:
Megatron With Neutro Fusion Tank
Description:
Neutro-Fusion Tank with Megatron (Action Master, 1990)
Accessories: Neutro-Fusion Tank, 4 missiles, "twin laser cannon"
Megatron returned as an Action Master in 1990, and as with most Action Master figures, he could not transform. His sculpt was based heavily upon the character’s animation model design. Megatron is compatible with all other Action Master accessories and vehicles.
He came packaged with the Neutro-Fusion Tank, a large tank vehicle whose hull could transform into a base/gun emplacement, with the turret forming a flight pod. Four "corrosive smoke shell” accessories mounted on both sides of the tank. There are seats for two Action Master figures on the front on either side of the barrel, another seat inside the turret, and four pegs on the back of the tank for standing additional Action Master figures.
The tank’s turret can detach and become a "jet throne,” which features flip-out wings, and the body of the tank transforms into a missile-launcher battle station. The battle station has two seats on either side behind the missile launchers (non-firing) and a stowing bay in the center for an additional figure.
In a fairly notable omission, Action Master Megatron did not come with the character’s iconic fusion cannon accessory. In 1992, however, a Japanese fan sculpted his own cannon accessory, which could plug into the figure’s arm using the shoulder peg-hole (seen in the image at right). In a surprising move, Takara gave this cannon their approval and allowed it to be officially sold with their copyright stamp at a Japanese convention [which one?] for only one day, at the price of 2000 yen.
