Peace through tyranny! Our next gallery is a long-overdue look at the Generations
Combiner Wars Leader class Megatron! This Megatron goes back to the iconic original Megatron look, and boy, does he deliver - the robot mode is a fantastic update that captures so much of the original design.
In getting his classic look updated, Megatron has traded up his gun mode for a powerful looking tank mode. This gives the robot mode some tank elements, including the tank gun as the iconic Megatron arm cannon (with option to flip it round for a more Generation 1 look). If we had to pick one flaw, it's the shoulders - they sit rather low, so rotating the arms 90 degrees forward looks awkward. There's plenty of poses that hide this, though, so it can be worked around - and it does allow for a fully rotateable tank turret.
Overall, Leader Megatron is a fantastic example of the service Hasbro is doing for fans - a robot mode that is quite possibly the definitive Classics-style robot, an awesome tank, and plenty of scope to recreate many iconic poses, including the "such heroic nonsense" pose.
Check out our gallery to see for yourself!

Today's set of Featured Ebay Auctions all focus on the tyrant known as
Megatron. Over the last 30+ years, Megatron has taken many forms. Be it the fan favorite Walther P-38 pistol, a helicopter, a tank, a jet, or even a T-Rex,
Megatron has always been a formidable figure. Take a look at some of those many figures below.

New images of RID 2015 Wave 4 Warrior and Legion figures have been found on
Robot Kingdom's Facebook Page. We now have a good look at both Grimlock's and Bumblebee's repaints.
Gold Armor Grimlock seems to be a straight up repaint with a G1-style scheme, and a new head sculpt. Elbows look unchanged, but unknown if the issue with the first Grimlock has fixed.
Stealth Bumblebee gets a color reversal... and now has yellow wheels!
Both waves are in stock and available for order!

Coming to us from Kelvin Chan of the Talk Transformers
Facebook group, it would appear as though Takara's Unite Warriors Superion is going to be released to our fellow Transfans in Australlia! Right now, as it stands, it appears as though this set will be a Toys'R'Us exclusive that is slated for a July release, but the price is currently not known. Another interesting tidbit in the set is that the name of Silverbolt's shield was voted for by some Aussie fans, which is a pretty cool thing all around. This would be good news indeed for our brothers and sisters down there, and here's hoping Menasor and other combiners join them as well. Take a look at the pictures of the box front, and some of the instruction booklet provided by Kelvin, and give us your thoughts, and some congratulations to our fellow fans down in Australia, after the jump!
