Ok. Couple of annoying fiddly panels, the wheels, couldn't flip out the knees plates at all. Do keep in mind I'm an idiot at transforming Transformers though. It wasn't a satisfying transformation, but it was ok. Everything does fit together well in the end. Truck mode is small though. The pic of him and the Sharkticon is spot on. He actaully is that small in truck mode! It is, however, not a bad truck! About as Cybertrony as my Ford Focus, but it does look good. The 'over-roof' looks ok. The problem is the battle damage effect now looks ridiculous, 'cos it's only there on his shoulders, so in truck mode there's no other damage around it. Stands out like a sore thumb. But he does look ok. Delux PotP Jazz looks huge next to him in car mode. But, having transformed both Prime and Jazz, one can deffinately tell the plastic is better.

POTP Jazz? Oh that's a ******, good luck. Pieces have to pass other pieces, I think the stripe panels need to be folded up in the chest and the head goes past them

ok I think his feet just stay there...
YEAH! NICE TANK! Transformation had... issues... but got there in the end.
This is a very nice tank Megatron! Got some size to him! He looks much larger than truck mode Prime. Wider, beefier. The only thing that save Prime slightly is he's slightly heigher in truck mode, otherwise, hmmmm, they don't look all that good together.
It's a nice tank mode though. Turning turret, but no elevation, so doesn't pass Big Phil's transforming tank test. The long gun barrel looks superb, but without the sword fitted, he looks rubbish. He needs that extra piece. He has some odd, I dunno, nubbins on his shoulders in robot mode which end up on the turret. These nubbins keep slipping down.
He's good tough! Nice tank! Murder Death Kill!

I like Megatron's tank mode. Very nice. Prime's truck mode is, indeed, freakin' tiny. But this may be the quintessential Megatron tank mode.

Ahhh, the swordy bits on the gun barrel secure the nubbins. Stand-down.

Megatron's head and face are laughably visible underneath though!

The red, silver and black on the extra gun barrel really make it look nice. And the shit-splash effect is uniform, so doesn't stand out as much as on Prime.

Oh My God, PotP Jazz just feel like absolute shit!!! I don't... Have I ever transfromed him before...? Fucking hell! Siege Prime and Megatron are a world better than his falling apart filth. What the actual fuck?!?!

Jazz does a job in robot mode, Classics RTS Jazz would be just too bulky next to Siege Prime, and at least Jazz can become a limb to complete Auto-Sentry, but what a fucker he is.

(I am so impatient in my old age)
Ok, back in robot mode, Prime does look great! The detailing looks ok, I love the detailing behind the glass in his windows. The backpack, although standoffish, looks almost like a rocket backpack, and even the arm kibble doesn't look too bad. You can spin the lights section round as forearm cannons. Head/face is to die for. Even the battle damage is fading into the back ground a bit. He's a tidy figure. Just... small... If they're all, you know, in this 'scale' then it'll be ok, I don't mind brute's like Motor Master standing over Prime, means more when Prime defeats him. Red Thighs Magnus... hmmmm... just about works... he's a bit big next to Prime. Legends look great though. Seaspray looks nice next to Prime. Prowl and Jazz... You can get away with it, 'cos they're slimmer deluxes.

The slightly smaller Ultra Magnus white Prime is going to look tiny. Oh God I hope Shockwave is bigger....

Ahhh, right so there are tabs to lock Megatron's back pack into place. But his head! His head fucking floats about on this wobbly panel! Oh No!

Oh and Prime's axe weapon is, kinda here no there, really. It's ok, but not as nice looking as Megatron's Death Sword! Meg's sword does look nice. Which is good, 'cos you can't form a convincing tank without it. Prime's axe is just a bit meh. Prime's rifle looks nice though, as does Megatron's traditional arm cannon.

Well, they both smell the same, and have a nice 'new plasti' smell about them. Not too strong, just right.
