Don't tell him he doesn't have his back cannon, or he'll shoot the disambiguation bar!

Megatron is the tyrannical leader of the Decepticons, being ruthless, cruel, and evil to the core. He was once friends with Optimus Prime, though exactly how boggles the mind. He plans to achieve total global domination, though his corrupt plans are often thwarted by the Autobots.

There's a little of him in all of us.

"Imagine seven million people all wanting to die together."

Toys

Cyberverse

Scout Class

You call that a tank?

• Megatron (Scout Class, 2018)

Cyberverse Scout Class Megatron is a Scout scale toy that transforms from a robot to a robot sitting down a "transformational" mode in six easy steps. His Action Attack gimmick causes an Energon mace to pop out of his right arm when triggered.

Prototype photos depict him having a silver painted body which are not featured in the final product.

1-Step Changers

Now THIS is a tank!

• Megatron (1-Step Changer, 2018)

Released as part of the second wave of the Cyberverse One-Step changers, this Megatron is an all-new mold, sharing a similar transformation scheme with the other Megatron.

• Megatron (1-Step Changer, 201?)

Warrior Class

"The funnelweb spider can kill a man in eight seconds, just by lookin' at him!"

• Megatron (Warrior Class, 2018)

Warrior class Megatron transforms from tank to robot mode in 9 steps. His lower legs have a tendancy to fall off, they are held in with (nearly flat) plastic nubs.

Ultimate Class

No wonder you have so many accidents around here, the steering wheel's on the wrong side of the tank!

• Megatron (Ultimate Class, 2018)

Cyberverse Ultimate Class Megatron is a roughly Leader Class-sized toy that transforms from a heavily G1-inspired robot to tank in around eleven steps. He comes with a "Fusion Mega Shot" Action Attack gimmick, which unfolds the cannon into an elongated pink barrel when the button to his left is pushed, reminiscent of a similar attack used by his live action counterpart. Additionally, he has an autotransforming head reveal activated when his waist is swing down, though his arms still need to be in turret mode for it to work correctly. Due to this feature, he has no neck swivel.

Megatron is unusual for his size in lacking elbows. Otherwise, he features ratcheted swivels and outward hinges in his hips, hinged knees, and shoulders with forward and lateral joints. Despite his Fusion Cannon being permanently attached to his arm, his right fist still has a covered-up hole for 5 mm pegs.
