- Series 3
- Bag Code: G2
- A black redeco of the Series 1 Cyberverse Tiny Turbo Changers Megatron, Megatron X changes from a stubby little tank to a robot in a few steps. Like many of his other-universe counterpart's toys, he features an "energon mace" molded in place of his left hand.
Notes
- To differentiate himself from the primary Cyberverse Megatron, X is almost half the height of Astrotrain and features a prominently darker color scheme. He becomes the same size as his primary counterpart once his Matrix is destroyed.
