Thus, though Megaplex is easily able to pass as Megatron for short periods of time his intelligence, strength, firepower, and skill are capped at levels signifigantly below those of the real Megatron. The deception is thus likely to work best on the battlefield, from a distance, or when Megaplex is folowing a strict script set by the original.
