• Shadow Blade Megatron (Leader, 2008)

Shadow Blade Megatron was repurposed as Black Megatron.

A black, grey and purple redeco of Megatron's leader class mold with a slight remolding to the tail... that's NOT called Galvatron. YeabuhWHA?

Surprisingly for a Hasbro produced redeco, Shadow Blade Megatron is cast entirely in black plastic with the exception of his translucent parts. His nose is not painted, so whenever his lights light up...his nose glows red.

Many units of this figure have a slight molding problem that prevents him from actually moving his face when the Decepticon insignia is pressed. However, as many units are also unaffected, this may have been an inconsistent problem or corrected by a running change.
