'''Megatron''' is one of the most powerful bots around. He can even link up to a [[black hole]] and draw upon extradimensional energy to increase his power. He is happy to demonstrate on anyone who challenges him. This includes, ''in particular'', bots who call him "Old Buckethead".
 
Should he require more power, Megatron also possesses a [[fusion launcher]] that he constructed himself, which he can use to take down a large number of opponents in a short amount of time.
