Megatron is a silver, red and black redeco of Generations Voyager Class Megatron, itself a retool of Revenge of the Fallen: N.E.S.T. Global Alliance Voyager Class Bludgeon with a new head. He transforms from a Japanese Type 90 tank into a samurai-esque robot mode and features a flexible plastic sword which is made out of a portion of the barrel of the tank's main gun, as well as a smaller dagger. The dagger can be stored in a sheath which is revealed from inside the tank turret, and both blades can be slotted in holes provided on the robot mode's left hip guard. Additionally, the dagger's handle can fit in the base of the sword's handle, forming a double-bladed weapon. He has Mech Alive gimmicks in his thighs and turret: sculpted cylinders in his thighs rotate whenever his lower legs are rotated, and pulling his turret open makes a sculpted white "disc" at the center rotate while a scabbard for the tantō hinges over to the side and props itself up for use.

The vehicle mode is one of the very few Transformer tank toys with rubber components to its treads. Portions of the tread links can unlock, allowing them to hang from the robot mode, while the wheels of the treads are integrated separately into the robot mode form itself. The treads still do not function realistically; small plastic wheels on the underside of the treads help the tank mode roll, as is standard with nearly all Transformer tank toys.

Megatron was sold available exclusively through e-HOBBY.

The original version of this mold was redecoed into Transformers: Hunt for the Decepticons Banzaitron, and it was differently retooled to make Timelines Gigatron.
