Mike at
Digital Toys has updated his news regarding MP-05 being Megatron by confirming that he will be a gun.
Just
a follow-up that Takara/Tomy has shown the prototype of the MP-05
Megatron and it indeed WILL BE A GUN. I cannot say more at this time
and Takara is not allowing pictures to be released yet, but we will
have them shortly as soon as they permit.
It's not much of a suprise, but it's nice to get it confirmed. TFormers have stated
Retailers in Japan have noted the barrel will be tipped with a plastic
orange piece for safety reason to distinguish it as a toy as opposed
from a real working fire arm.

Seibertron have a report that the next re-released of Transformers: The Movie (that's the animated film not the
Transformers Movie due out next year), has been delayed in the UK until March 2007.
The UK has already seen several versions of Transformers: The Movie released, including Metrodome's "Wide Screen" edition, so sales of the DVD are not expected to be Earth shattering when it's finally released.
