Older News Fan to Fan have more information on the MP-05 Masterpiece Megatron toy including :-



  • Kremzeek figure included (different mold from the one that comes with Kiss Players Autorooper x Atari)
  • Working Trigger action when in Gun mode
  • Same size as MP-01 G1 Convoy!!
  • LED gimmick in scope
  • Die-cast parts
  • Memorable accessories include energy mace, laser-cutter and gun from Transformers: The Movie (used by Megatron in the fight with Optimus Prime).
  • New transformation designs and concepts, for example moving the trigger part to the legs, improving overall Robot proportion.
  • Due to toy gun regulation in the US, Walter P-38 Megatron was never in the plans when the Japan team worked with the US team. MP-05 Megatron is designed and developed solely by the Japan team, solely for the Japan market.
There are also new images of the toy in gun mode at Fan to Fan and Amiami

Older News Snakas has updated his website with the most comprehensive information so far on Masterpiece Megatron. Again none of this comes as much of a suprise, but I guess it's always good to hear anyway.

The unpainted prototype of the Masterpiece Megatron was exhibited on 25/26th October by TakaraTommy. The size at the robot mode is MP-1 Convoy and the transformation mode is an oversizedsize Walther P-38.

Accessory details other than uniting canon are uncertain. The price is yet to be confirmed and it will be released in 2007.

Older News 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.
