:''Atari Hitotonari is a spineless jellyfish of a [[human]] in the [[Kiss Players]] continuity''

[[Image:Atari-EDC01.jpg|right|250px|thumb|You are a blight upon both this franchise and your gender.]]

'''Atari Hitotonari''' (人隣当梨'', Hitotonari Atari''): She's submissive, passive, immature even for her young age, and not all that bright. What a positive female role model she is...for the Ferengi. Perhaps the only non-stereotypical facet of her personality is that she wears glasses without being especially intelligent.

Atari is, surprisingly, not so named as an analogy to her mental computing abilities. Her last name means 'girl next door', apparently. She likes to gorge herself on doughnuts and desserts.

Among Atari's other good qualities, she has joined [[Earth Defense Command|an organization]] dedicated to eliminating the threat that [[Transformer|Transformers]] pose to all on Earth. Well, actually, she didn't really "join" it as much as she was "sucked into" it, and then spit out...naked...and covered in goo. Ugh.

Atari becomes carsick easily and must clutch the steering wheel to avoid complete nausea.

==Fiction==
===Kiss Players===
:''Voice actress:'' [[Satomi Akesaka]]
In the year 2005, Atari was one of many girls who suddenly developed [[Kiss Player]] abilities. The E.D.C. became aware of her powerful potential, but she would not come to join them until after her parents were killed in a [[Transformers]]-related incident. Suddenly orphaned, she was left despondent, alone and resentful toward giant robots.

[[Image:LegionRape1.jpg|left|150px|thumb|You gunna git RAPED!<br><small>(Disclaimer: Teletraan-1 is well aware that this picture contains no visual references to rape, phallic symbols, giant robots, frightened cartoon females who may or may not be of pre-voting age, or manga-convention background lines. In fact, this picture is completely blank. </small>)]]

Atari became depressed and self-destructive. As she spoke aloud about her nihilistic feelings one day, she encountered a menacing automobile with no driver. The vehicle offered to make good on her wish to die and transformed into a [[Legion]] robot.

The cowed and terrified girl was saved at the last moment by the sudden appearance of the Ne-04 [[Autrooper]], fused with the E.D.C. Kiss Player [[Shao-Shao Li]]. However, Shao had reached the limit of her fusion time and was ejected, unconscious, from her partner. As the Legion loomed closer, the damaged Autrooper demanded that Atari [[kiss]] it. Characteristically, she complied, and the resulting fusion both repaired the Autrooper and allowed the two to messily decapitate their goo-drooling enemy. Initially consumed by battle lust, Atari regained her senses, threw up and passed out.

She awoke in an unfamiliar room in E.D.C. headquarters, apparently having been drafted into the organization in the meantime. Her new teammate, [[Ringo]] of [[Ne squad]], informed her that she was a powerful Kiss Player, kissed her, and then bit her to "taste" Atari's abilities. It would be the first of many incidents of shame, pain and humiliation to come.

In one of her first assignments, Atari found herself and her squad assigned to guard the convoy that was transporting the dead body of [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] into [[Tokyo]]. The rookie Kiss Player was swiftly rendered helpless when her opponent, the resistance commando [[Marissa Faireborn]], sliced her clothes off with a knife, fused with the resurrected Prime and ran away.

[[Image:Atariscream2.jpg|right|thumb|"Atariscream" may look triumphant now, but check out [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream's]] side of the story.]]Over the months that followed, Atari continued to live in the shadow of her Ne Squad predecessor, Shao-Shao. Publicly kissing her Autrooper partner (the same Ne-04) brought her nothing but embarrassment and discomfort, and she could not help but think that the veteran fighters on the team must be much better kissers than she was.

One day, less than six months after joining the E.D.C., Atari developed an excruciating stomach pain after eating an omelette. At her Autrooper's behest, she kissed him and he shrank to a tiny size. Driving into her mouth, he was able to defeat and destroy the [[Legion]] invader inside Atari's digestive tract. Unable to get back out on his own, the Autrooper made Atari stick her finger down her throat, resulting in yet more shame and humiliation for the young girl.

She also got possessed by [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]] once, but hey, [[Trypticon|that]] [[Cyclonus (G1)|happens]] [[Scourge (G1)|to]] [[Waspinator|everyone]], [[Teletraan 15|really]].

[[Image:AtariSwimsuit.jpg|left|thumb|Here, Atari models the very latest in elementary-school swimsuits, and also hamster ears....yup doesn't get much more perverted then this, or [http://transformers.wikia.com/wiki/Shaoshao_Li maybe it does]]]In the wake of the final battle, Atari, Shao-Shao and Marissa formed a singing idol group called "Kiss Players" with the cassette Transformers [[Glit]], [[Sundor]] and [[Rosanna]]. As they performed at the [[Fortress Maximus (RID)|Brave Maximus]] Fortress stop of their world tour, the [[Sparkbot]]s [[Stardust]], [[Angela]] and [[Zangetsu]] appeared and instructed the three humans to kiss them. Complying, they were teleported to the [[Sherman Dam]] in the year 1985, just in time to witness an historic battle.

The Kiss Players traveled to various points in time and space, taking turns to kiss famous [[Autobot]] leaders (who were unable to detect their presence) and thereby extract fragments of the [[Allspark]] from their bodies. Atari briefly found herself bounced to the parallel universe of the [[Unicron Trilogy]], but perhaps the greatest danger that faced the group came on the planet [[Quintessa]].

Put on trial by the [[Quintesson|Quintessons]], she kissed Star Dust and used the power of [[wikipedia:Moe (slang)|Moe]] to transform her costume into a Japanese elementary school bathing suit, student backpack, and hamster ears. Oddly, even calling the judge "Big Brother" and asking his permission to go to the potty was not enough to keep Atari and her friends out of the [[Sharkticon]] pit. But it all ended up okay in the end.

*'''Atari X Autorooper''' (2006)

:Atari was released as a painted, pre-posed PVC figurine with a transformable Smallest Transformer Autrooper and an audio CD in the "Atari X Autorooper" figure collection in September, 2006. The figurine was sculpted by series designer [[Yūki Ōshima]].

*'''Autorooper X Atari''' (2006)

: A smaller figurine to match the other two girls came with a 1:24 scale transforming Autrooper in the "Autorooper X Atari" set in December, 2006. It includes alternate arms holding a barf bag. No, really. There's even a little sculpted "uck" on her chin. (Well, we ''hope'' it's barf.)

*'''Atari-scream''' (2007)

: A [[redeco]]ed version of the Atari figurine in a black uniform with a [[Decepticon]] insignia armband was an online-order exclusive from [[Dengeki Hobby]] magazine. Called "Atari-scream", it represents Atari as possessed by the ghost of Starscream.

==Trivia==
* According to the series creator, Atari was originally going to be an elementary school student. However, [[Takara]] objected, pointing out that an elementary school student would not be legally eligible for a driver's license.

* Yes, you read that correctly.

Megatron (Movie)

2007-12-24T13:17:50Z

72.201.153.74: /* Battling Robots Bubble Bath */

{{disambig3|Megatron}}

:''Megatron is a [[Decepticon]] from the [[Movie (franchise)|Movie]] [[continuity family]]. He is often refered to as Lord Megatron. Known to humans as both "The Ice Man" and "The Mega-Man" and more formally as [[N.B.E.]] - 01''

[[Image:Megatronmovie.jpg |thumb|right|300px|Super Fighting Robot...MEGA-MAN!]]

The brother of [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] as well as former [[Lord High Protector]] and co-ruler of [[Cybertron]], '''Megatron''' is vicious and extremely powerful, single-minded in his goals, straight forward and brutally direct in his attempts to seize those goals. He is all "blunt force" in contrast to [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream's]] penchant for deceit and trickery. On the downside, Megatron tends to become so obsessed with the object of his desires that he can ignore "secondary" matters and glaring flaws in his plans (otherwise, he likely wouldn't have melted into ice-cold arctic water after being white hot from re-entry and spent ten-thousand years as a popsicle).

While [[Megatron (disambiguation)|some]] merely dislike or disregard organics (since they have a tendency to get in their way), Megatron feels a violent hatred towards them and seems to view them as only slightly above a virus, with him as the cure. This may be due to having spent decades as their prisoner, but his hatred is still very extreme. If there was no [[All Spark]], it is not that big a stretch to think he'd have come here anyway, just to cleanse one more planet of its infection.

[[Image:MovieMegatron_Bumblebee_torture_comic.jpg|left|thumb|200px|Better get some ice on that.]]

Megatron once ruled Cybertron side-by-side with [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]]. For generations, the two ruled in peace. Megatron was firm, but Prime was fair, creating a nice, even balance. Sadly, he got a jonesing for the All Spark and the war started. Megatron formed an army of separatists, the Decepticons, while Prime formed his own army, the Autobots. Megatron's forces, while less noble, were more ferocious warriors. Prime eventually made the decision to launch the All Spark into deep space. When [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] stalled him long enough for it to be launched into space, he tore off Bumblebee's arm and crushed his voice box, then took off into space after the All Spark. {{Storylink|Prime Directives, Part 1}}

===''Transformers'' Movie Prequel (Target)===

[[Image:Movie_Megatron_Targetcomic_sure.jpg|thumb|right|120px|Sit boy, or I'll beat you to death]]

During an assault on the Autobots personally led by Megatron and his hound, [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]], Megatron crushed an opponent's spark before casually tossing his corpse over his shoulder. Megatron declared that the All Spark would be his, to which Blackout assured his leader that he will make sure of it. Megatron was pleased by his minion's loyalty, but dispatched him to assist Starscream's unit in preventing Optimus Prime's reinforcements from entering Tyger Pax. He then left to meet his destiny, but it slipped from his grasp. {{Storylink|Transformers Movie Prequel (Target) Volume 2}}

'''Note:''' ''Megatron's response to Blackout's pledge is mistakenly given to the latter Decepticon.''

===''Transformers: Beginnings''===

===UK ''Transformers Comic''===

The All Spark had not been blindly launched into space, however - its trajectory was leading it directly towards the [[Alkaris Anomaly]], a wormhole that could potentially transport the cube to any one of an infinite number of locations in the universe. Megatron was fully capable of catching up to the cube before it would enter the wormhole, but as he passed Cybertron's moon, he found himself ensnared by an Autobot tractor beam of remarkable strength that pulled him down to the moon's surface. Enraged by the ignominity of it all, Megatron turned his weapons on the Autobots responsible, but quickly calmed down enough to realize that this was only playing into their hands, and instead ordered [[Brawl (Movie)|Devastator]] to take his place in the battle. Megatron swooped back into space, hot on the All Spark's heels, but was unable to stop the cube from falling through the anomaly. Determined to have the All Spark's power, Megatron chose to enter the wormhole himself, only to be spat out in some far-off star system, with no trace of the All Spark. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2|Prelude: Megatron}}

===''Transformers: Ghosts of Yesterday''===

When Megatron came online, it was obvious that some time had passed. Not only was he encased in a primitive transport, but there were lifeforms fighting over him. Before Megatron could properly exterminate them, another crude transport crashed into his, causing a massive (but not spark-threatening) explosion. Megatron would have been pleased to know that the fire only added to his terrifying visage in the eyes of the maggots. Regaining his composure, Megatron noticed [[Phillip Nolan|an insect]] standing near him. As Megatron reached out to grab it, [[Thomas Kinnear|another insect]], this one terminally damaged, begin firing crude projectiles which his body armor easily deflected. Waiting until after the creature had expended its ammunition, Megatron grabbed it in his hand, only to discover that it had packed itself with explosives, which threw Megatron to the ground when they detonated. Then, the aforementioned first insect began spraying liquid nitrogen on Megatron, causing him to go back into stasis. Unable to escape, Megatron screamed a dark vengeance upon his captors. {{Storylink|Transformers: Ghosts of Yesterday}}

===''Transformers'' (2007 movie)===
:''Voice actor:'' [[Hugo Weaving]] (English), [[Koutarou Nakamura]] (Japan), [[José Santacruz]] (Brazil)

[[Image:Megstheiceman.JPG‎|thumb|left|200px|Ice, Ice Baby!]]

Megatron eventually succeeded in tracking the All Spark to [[Earth]], where he successfully crash-landed in the Arctic Circle and was frozen solid for thousands of years. In 1897, some 100 Earth-years before the arrival of the other Transformers, he was discovered by an explorer named [[Archibald Amundsen Witwicky]]. Captain Witwicky accidentally activated Megatron's navigation system and caused the coordinates of the All Spark to be etched onto the explorer's glasses. Megatron remained imprisoned in the Arctic, until the 1930s, when he was dug out by the United States government and moved to a secret [[Sector Seven]] stronghold inside [[Hoover Dam]]. In the years that followed, many modern devices (by Earth standards) were reverse-engineered from his frozen body.

In the present day, having searched the galaxy for the All Spark and being drawn to Earth, the remaining Decepticons learn of Witwicky's glasses. Through the Internet, they determined the location of both Megatron and the All Spark inside Hoover Dam. [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] infiltrated the dam and shut down the power systems, while Starscream attacked the external powerlines, resulting in Megatron's thawing out. Once again online, the leader of the Decepticons informed the worthless insects that of his true name, shouting "I am Megatron!" (to clear up all that N.B.E.-01/Ice Man nonsense), randomly killed a few of them while destroying his former prison, then transformed and flew off after the All Spark again. He met up with Starscream on the outside, and, never one for pleasantries, demanded to know where the Cube was. Upon learning that the humans had moved the All Spark, Megatron berated Starscream for yet another failure.

[[Image:Movie_Megatron_breakout.jpg‎|thumb|right|200px|Mace isn't for spraying, it's for hitting.]]

After Starscream and Devastator's opening attacks in [[Mission City]], Megatron arrived, and again declared his name (He really wants people to know who he is). The Autobots were so paniced by the sight of their long lost nemesis that [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] called for a temporary retreat. Megatron blasted [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]] away when the diminutive Autobot attempted to attack, then threw him into the air before crushing him on top of a tower with his clawed talons. Jazz vainly fought on, asking if Megatron wanted a "piece", but doing little damage to Megatron. The Decepticon leader killed the Autobot by tearing him in half, callously declaring that he wanted "two".

[[Image:Movie_Megatron_jetmode_cityfight.jpg‎|thumb|left|250px|''Really'' bad case of gas.]]

As [[Samuel James Witwicky|the human boy]] ran off with the All Spark, Megatron ordered the Decepticons to attack. Devastator attacked the armed insects, while Starscream and [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]] fought [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] and Ratchet for the All Spark. At that moment, Optimus Prime appeared and challenged Megatron. Millennia in the ice had done nothing to lessen the animosity Megatron felt for his brother, however. Barely managing to growl out Prime's name, he transformed and flew at Prime at full speed. The Autobot leader leapt and grabbed a hold of Megatron, who slammed him into a building before flying right through a skyscraper. Both leaders landed in the middle of an intersection, but Megatron was the first to recover and leaped upon his brother, snarling that the humans were undeserving of life. Optimus Prime replied that they had the right to choose for themselves before he threw his brother off. Megatron declared that if Prime wished to defend them, he should "join them in extinction", forming his [[fusion cannon]]. Before he could fire, the Autobot leader drew his [[ion blaster]] and fired, hitting Megatron. The Decepticon leader shrugged off this attack, spun around from the momentum and fired his cannon, throwing Optimus Prime into the side of a building.

Megatron persued the young human who had removed the All Spark from Hoover Dam, destroying everything that stood in his way. The boy ran to a dilapidated building that was the designated coordinates for a human military evacuation team, and Megatron smashed his way through, yelling that he could smell the human maggot. Starscream destroyed the helicopter intended to take the All Spark, and Megatron burst through the floor, inquiring if it was courage or fear that compelled him. Finally cornering him on a ledge, Megatron offered that if the human gave him the All Spark, the boy may live as [[Ravage|his]] [[Laserbeak (G1)|pet]]. The Decepticon leader relished the human's defiant refusal and destroyed the ledge the human was standing upon, sending the boy tumbling to the ground.

[[Image:Movie_Megatron_maceattack.jpg‎|thumb|right|200px|This would have been ''so'' much cooler if it had been a chain mine.]]

Unfortunately, the human was caught by Optimus Prime, who then tried to escape down the side of the building before Megatron tackled him and sent all three slamming into the pavement. As a nearby [[Michael Bay|human bystander]] attempted to run, the Decepticon expressed his disgust at the insect's proximity and flicked it away. Protecting the young boy, Prime declared that their war would end here and it was now just between the two brothers. Though lusting for the All Spark, Megatron decided to indulge his brother's obvious death wish, declaring that only he was in this fight. Despite Optimus Prime's best efforts, Megatron was the stronger warrior, pounding the Autobot leader with devastating blow after devastating blow until he collapsed. Adding insult to injury, Megatron informed Prime that his defense of the "weak" was the real reason he lost.

[[Image:Megatron allspark merge.JPG|left|thumb|200px|Oh, he's dead. There's no way this will make him [[Galvatron (disambiguation)|any more powerful]].]]

The Decepticon leader turned his attention back to the human boy, but was suddenly attacked by the human fighter jets and [[William Lennox|Captain Lennox]]'s ground soldiers firing sabot rounds. His armor a damaged, shattered mess, Megatron ignored the punishment and focused on the human boy. As Optimus Prime ordered the boy to place the All Spark into his chest, the human instead pushed it into the now-exposed [[spark]] in Megatron's chest, overloading him with energy and extinguishing the Decepticon's life force. As Optimus Prime stood over Megatron's lifeless shell, watching the light flicker out of his brother's [[optics]], he remarked somberly, yet remorsefully, that Megatron had left him no choice, and removed a shard of the All Spark from his brother's spark cavity.

Megatron's body was dumped into the Laurentian Abyss at its deepest point, along with the remains of the other Decepticons, where the near-freezing temperatures will -- hopefully -- keep them dormant indefinitely. {{Storylink|Transformers (2007)}}

===''Transformers'' The Game===
:''Voice actor:'' [[Frank Welker]]

====Autobot campaign====
After arriving at Hoover Dam, Bumblebee saw Megatron and the AllSpark being held in the same room, which was guarded by lasers. After bringing down the lasers, Bumblebee managed to shrink the AllSpark, while under fire by Megatron. Following the Autobots to Mission City, Megatron ignomiously "flicked" Bumblebee away, then tried to grab the AllSpark from Sam. Optimus Prime arrived and the two fought in the Mission City park. After Prime believed that he had destroyed Megatron, Sam handed the AllSpark to Prime, but Megatron jumped into the air with his flail, making one last attempt at nailing Prime. Prime caught the flail in its path and yanked Megatron towards him, shoving the AllSpark into his chest. Pretty ruthless there, Prime.

====Decepticon campaign====
After learning Megatron's location, Blackout and Starscream sabotaged the dam's power, allowing Megatron to thaw out and awaken. After Megatron emerged, Starscream and Blackout bowed before their Lord, who declared that they had much to do. After the Decepticons dispatched the Autobots, Megatron, hoping to draw Prime out, went on a rampage in Mission City, declaring that the city would burn beneath his feet (this means toastie toes, but he's willing to make that sacrifice). Megatron and Prime played a game of cat and mouse, with Megatron tracking Prime and Sam, until Megatron finally destroyed Prime, then merged the AllSpark with his spark, becoming even more powerful in the process (...wait, what?). After decimating Earth, Megatron took the [[Abraham Lincoln|Lincoln Memorial]] as his throne, then ordered Starscream, Brawl, and Barricade to finish the planet, before going on to conquer the galaxy.

===''Transformers: Autobots''===

Having landed on Earth some thousands of years ago, Megatron is thought to be frozen somewhere in the Arctic. As the Autobots look for clues as to his location, they eventually arrive in the frozen desert long enough to realize the humans have found him, as well as the [[AllSpark]] (sic). Once they hack into the communications array at the base, they find documentation leading to the Hoover Dam, where the Autobots and Decepticons race. Some wishing to free him, most hoping to destroy him, the Transformers fight over the base until the Decepticon leader is finally freed. Once out of cryo-storage, Megatron proceeds to steal the AllSpark from the Autobots and begin a destructive rampage through Tranquility, until he is finally defeated by Optimus Prime and [[Create-A-Bot (Autobot)|Create-A-Bot]].

===''Transformers: Decepticons''===

With Megatron frozen in the Hoover Dam, the Decepticons fight to free their leader. However, as is quickly made apparent, Starscream and his young protege, a [[Create-A-Bot (Decepticon)|Create-A-Bot]], seek to eliminate their leader. This quickly changes, as Create-A-Bot is convinced by Barricade to free their commander, as Starscream is a back-stabbing beaurocrat while Megatron is a truely zealous leader. Even though both would kill you in an instant, Megatron would at least do it to your face so you could see it coming.

Once free, Megatron quickly takes the time to wipe out Jazz, who has been left at the bridge to help get rid of Megatron. After a fairly short battle, Megatron smashes Jazz into the dirt, leaving him to die. Back in Tranquility, he chases after Starscream, only to be blocked by [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]]. Once the sibling rivalry is finished, Prime is left in pieces in the streets of Tranquility.

Arriving in the Casino Strip, Megatron finds Create-A-Bot damaged and Starscream flying away. Giving chase, he attacks his traitorous second-in-command, nearly destroying him despite his awesome AllSpark driven powers. Starscream uses his last breath to insult Megatron before being killed by the tyrant. Returning to Create-A-Bot's side, Megatron takes a moment to call him a weakling and a failure, completely forgetting about the fact that Create-A-Bot saved him, led him to Starscream, destroyed the Autobots, and served him more loyally than most of his other followers. Taking a moment to let this sink in, Megatron went on to tell him that the weak are made to serve the strong, then ripped the young Decepticon apart and ate his Spark. Megatron then took off into the sky with intentions unknown.

===Transformers (2007)===
*'''Megatron''' (Leader, 2007)
:''Japanese ID number:'' '''MD-07'''

[[Image:Movie_Leader_Megatron_toy.jpg|right|thumb|300px|Just what the hell do I turn into?]]

: Leader class ''Movie'' Megatron transforms into a silver Cybertronic assault jet. He is quite accurate to the CGI design... except for the giant mass of legs attempting (but failing) to hide under the wings.

: In robot mode, Megatron's sculpt is quite accurate, or as accurate as a toy based on his CG design can be. However, his paint decoration is quite inaccurate, with blue highlights on various parts of his body, possibly to allude to his pre-frozen state and to give a relatively monochromatic figure more color. More confusing is his jet black face, which obscures the sculpt's details and is inaccurate to the movie appearance's gunmetal.

: Megatron's right fist disconnects at the wrist to become the spiked end of the extendable "chain whip" weapon concealed within his forearm (perhaps in homage to [[Megatron (G1)|G1 Megatron]]'s own flail weapon); pressing the black switch on the arm pulls the chain taut for a whipping attack. His arms also link together at the wrists to form a "fusion cannon," with the pod on his left forearm concealing the weapon's [[Automorph]]ing twin barrels, exposed by pulling a switch. His other automorph features include his wings folding up as his vehicle nosecone is moved into place, and his feet unfolding as his knees are straightened. Finally, pressing the button on his waist activates a small friction motor, which moves various torso plates and blades on his back into place, accompanied by a metallic shrieking sound and flashing yellow lights.

:Megatron's instructions summarily fail to actually tell the reader about how his gimmicks work. The whipping-action black switch for his flail is not mentioned; they do not detail how to connect the arms for fusion cannon mode; and the fact that the cannon is on a slider, allowing it to be centre-aligned, rather than sitting off to one side, is also omitted.

: There is an error in Megatron's legs, in that his left and right hip joints have been swapped for reasons unknown. Switching them allows for a slightly smoother transformation. In addition to ''that'', both of Megatron's hands have a finger misassembly. Two pieces are molded to have two fingers, while one is obviously supposed to be a thumb–however, this thumb is on the 'outside' of his hands instead of the inside. The prototype on the packaging's stock photos show the correct assembly.

: ''Geez'', Hasbro.

: Possibly a dropped feature [[for safety reasons]], the right fist (partly a projectile tethered to the arm) is designed to launch out of his wrist via a spring-loaded firing mechanism. However, the spring for the launching mechanism was removed, though the firing trigger remains. One can either find a compatible spring or steal the spring in his left arm fusion cannon, then place it in his right forearm, though this disables his fusion cannon-retracting Automorph.

*'''Megatron''' (Legends, 2007)

[[Image:Movie_Legends_Megatron_toy.jpg|thumb|left|Again, what the hell do I turn into?]]

:Legends class Megatron is the smallest mainline ''Movie'' Megatron toy, and boy, does it show. Even with Megatron's relatively simple transformation sequence, the sheer simplicity of the Legends class toy means that his vehicle mode is basically his robot mode splayed out, and again, boy is it ''obvious''. His robot mode is passably accurate, if by accurate one means he is now a hunchback with wings for legs, Dustbusters for hands, and an unchanged Alien Queen-esque head design.

{{-}}

*'''Megatron''' (Voyager, 2007)
:''Japanese ID number:'' '''MD-14'''

:Voyager class Megatron transforms into an ice-covered version of his Cybertronic jet, with transparent blue plastic forming large portions of his vehicle mode, such as parts of his wings. This ice design is carried onto his robot mode, with his legs, shoulders and chest having some kind of 'ice' plastic covering them. With a significantly different (and simple compared to other figures of the same pricepoint) transformation sequence compared to his earlier Leader class toy, his chest frost lowers and his shoulders raise to robot mode position when you bring his lower body forward thanks to [[Automorph]] technology. He also has his fusion cannon in its entirety on his left arm. His wings feature flip-out "ice blades", and pulling on a piece in the back of his jet mode brings them forward like pincer claws.

:Something interesting to note is that his feet are entirely spring-loaded, which means his foot and the two "rear toes" on each feet automatically close up when he's not standing up. Surprisingly, this helps a lot with the posing, as the feet's parts automatically position themselves for the perfect balance.

*'''Allspark Legends''' (Multi-pack, 2007)

[[Image:Movie_Allspark_Legends_pack.jpg|thumb|right|120px|"Quick, Bumblebee! I hold up Megatron, you just fight with the others!" - "...I hate you."]]

: A Toys R Us exclusive, this six-pack of Legends class figures contains unmodified toys of [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]], [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]], Megatron, [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] and [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]].

{{-}}

*'''Fusion Blast Megatron''' (Fast Action Battler, 2007)

[[Image:Movie FAB Megatron.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Just back from filming Predator 3]]

: Fusion Blast Megatron is a simple version of Megatron with dorky-looking proportions in robot mode, and it turns into an even dorkier-looking vehicle mode. The transformation sequence manages to be even more simple and non-involved than the other ''Movie'' Megatron toys by means of an Automorph feature very similar to the early Beast Wars flipchangers. Moving his back section down causes the torso to flip up, hiding the head and positioning the arms skywards. Though the figure requires a little more repositioning and folding, most of the transformation is done with a single step.

{{-}}

*'''Megatron''' (Robot Replica, 2007)

:A non-transforming, detailed version of Megatron. It comes with his fusion cannon, though the elbows only articulate from side-to-side, giving him EXTREMELY gimped arm articulation.

{{-}}

====Transformers Premium Series====
A subline under the main ''Transformers'' movie toy line, the ''Premium Series'' is a range of store-exclusive Movie-line figures repainted in enhanced decos and metallic paint and/or plastic, presented in robot mode.

*'''Megatron''' (Voyager, 2007)

[[Image:Movie_Voyager_Premium_Megatron.jpg|thumb|right|200px|I will ask this one more time...what do I turn into?!]]

:One of the first figures available in the ''Premium Series'', Voyager class Megatron was released exclusively at Best Buy on October 16th, 2007 alongside the North American launch of the ''Transformers'' movie DVD. Megatron has been completely redecoed, covering most of his previously grey parts with metallic silver paint and a black paint wash over the top of that. Black and gold highlights are used to offset all of the silver, while the transparent 'ice' parts are clear. These changes essentially make Megatron far more accurate to his movie appearance.

:As part of the ''Premium Series'', Megatron is presented in robot mode inside a special display box similar in shape to the packaging for the Hasbro release of ''Generation 1'' ''Masterpiece'' [[Starscream (G1)|Starscreams]].

*'''Megatron''' (3" Robot Masters, 2007)

[[Image:Movie_TitaniumRM_Megatron.jpg|left|thumb|130px|I am Megatron! And I am your destr—rrr...gah, I can't move my legs! Decepticons, retreat!]]

:''Titanum'' Megatron is a die-cast metal and plastic figurine, with an accurate sculpt based on the CG model owing to the fact he doesn't need to transform. Being a figurine, he only has articulation in his shoulders, neck and waist. Megatron comes with a Movie-style Decepticon symbol display stand.

*'''Autobot Ratchet vs Megatron''' (2007)

*'''Megatron''' Burger King free toy (2007)

:A non-transformable version of Megatron, cast primarily in gray plastic. The toy's entire "gimmick" is that both arms rotate at the shoulder. Due to the strict [[For safety reasons|protocols]] of making a fast food premium, Megatron's sharp and deadly design was forced to be smoothed out. This had the unfortunate effect of making his sculpted details meld together and looking less like a killer robot and more like a melted clay man. The toy ''appears'' to use the earlier head render of Megatron's, but due to the vague detail and paint job, may also not be.

:The toy also comes with a purple plastic Decepticon base and and a lenticular motion card with a surprising amount of frames of animation. These two pieces may in fact be the better part of the package.

===Battling Robots Bubble Bath===
*'''Megatron''' (2007)

[[Image:megatron_bubblebath.jpg|thumb|left|120px|"I ''[http://transformers.wikia.com/wiki/Bonecrusher_%28Movie%29 hate]'' merchandising."]]

:Megatron's torso attaches to the bottle of bubble bath. His elbows bend, and his arms have a punching gimmick, to allow him to battle the forces of good. Pushing a lever on either side makes the respective fist punch forward. He's removable, though not as easily held without the bottle below his waist. Like many pieces of Megatron merchandise, this "figure" uses the older head design with blue eyes. The blue eyes are also the only spot of paint on him, unlike the elaborately decoed Prime.

==Trivia==

* The prototype photographs on the back of Leader and Voyager class Megatrons' packaging show him with a completely different head based upon an earlier version of CGI design that was dropped after much negative fan reaction.

* According to The Movie Guide, Megatron is one of few Transformers capable of space travel without reverting to a Protoform. This explains how he was capable of chasing the All Spark ''immediately'' after its launch.

* Early script drafts featured Megatron consuming the [[spark]]s of his fallen foes, but this didn't make it into the final film due to time constraints. The novelisation of the movie, on the other hand, sees him chow down on Jazz in the final battle; similarly, although not outright stated in dialogue, his animalistic pouncing on the fallen bodies of various characters (including Optimus Prime, Starscream, Jazz and the [[Create-A-Bot (Decepticon)|Decepticon Create-A-Bot]]) in the Movie Nintendo DS games, following by what appears to be rooting around in their innards, seems to suggest he's doing the same there.

* Similarly, in the ''Autobots'' version of the same DS game, it is noted that Megatron "took the spark" of his and Optimus' father. Presumably, this is a reference to both his cannibalistic practises as well as the fact that both he and Prime are in fact brothers... at least in the Cybertronian sense.

* Despite his undeniable hatred of humans, Megatron is the only Decepticon in the movie who doesn't speak [[Cybertronian languages|Cybertronian]] for the majority of his dialogue. In fact, he speaks ''fluent'' English upon reviving, despite the fact that [[Wikipedia:Modern English|Modern English]] came into existence around the Sixteenth century, when he was presumably still frozen in the ice. This could suggest that he still was somehow conscious when he was studied by Sector Seven (which he also overtly states upon awakening in the IDW comic adaptation). This would explain why his first action after thawing was declaring his name - imagine being frozen for generations being referred to as "N.B.E. 1", or even worse: "Mega-man" ''and'' "Ice-man".

* In almost every scene where Megatron's alt mode is in use, he spins while in flight; I guess thousands of years as a juice pop can do a number on your stablizers.

* The Megatron computer generated model consisted of 2411 individual pieces, 433,949 polygons, 8924 rig nodes, and 1437 texture maps. The pieces combined gave a volume of 10,325 cubic feet.<ref>Robertson, Barbara (2007). Heavy Metal. ''Computer Graphics, 30''(7), 12-17.</ref>

* [[Megatron (Animated)|Megatron]] from ''[[Transformers Animated]]'' has apparently stolen this Megatron's head... at least for the time being.
