Title:
Megatron Sharkticon
Description:
Megatron/Sharkticon Megatron (Voyager Class, 2013)
Series / Number: 02 / 006
Accessories: Tartarex Warp Sword/Sharktooth Spear
Part of the fourth wave of Prime: Beast Hunters Voyager Class toys, Megatron is an extensive Sharkticon-homaging retool of his Prime: Robots in Disguise toy. He transforms into a "beast jet”, and he has a unique Decepticon insignia with beady eyes and a gaping maw of sharp teeth. He comes equipped with the Tartarex Warp Sword, a fish-themed cannon that can convert into a sword-harpoon thing which can he can wield via its 5mm handle.
He has a minor assembly error in that the two-pronged sections within his shoulder-pads are swapped, preventing the shoulder-pads from slotting in place properly in his "beast jet” mode. They can be reversed by popping the pads off their ball joints, unscrewing the shoulder-pads, and swapping the parts. Good luck popping the shoulder-pads off their ball joints, though.
His instructions refer to him as "Sharkticon Megatron” and his weapon the "Sharktooth Spear”. There also exists a packaging variant for this toy: Early shipments simply called the toy "Megatron” and his weapon the "Tartarex Warp Sword”, whereas a later running change version changed the packaging to reflect the names given in the instructions. His instructions also include the twenty-second chapter of the Tales of the Beast Hunters series.
This figure was used to represent Megatron’s Sharkticon Matrix-enhanced form in the novel Retribution.
