First announced in March this year, the XM Studios Premium Collectibles Megatron 1/10 Statue brought a very detailed battle-damaged Megatron. While being easily recognizable as G1 Megatron, the design and proportions are very stylized, bringing a fresh modern look to the ruthless Decepticon leader.
Now, XM Studios has shown a full color sample of their Megatron statue at the Singapore Toy, Game & Comic Convention STGCC 2018. Radd Titan on YouTube has shared a nice video of the statue direct from the convention. We have nice views of the body an details, the base, the extra pieces which include a new arm, hands, sword and a light-up morning star.
We still have no information on price or release date, but you can check the video (including XM Studios Starscream and Optimus Prime) and some screencaps after the jump. Don’t forget to share your impressions on the 2005 Boards!
The Mad Demobot
Slight oddball bump, but it seems like word of the new head just vanished. Even if you were to look at the page where he's listed, the new head's not there.
Music
They must have heard the complaints since that is much better. It's a little terrifying even.
Retroheavy
looks like they updated the portrait for this guy.

You are right. XM does not have the license to sell in the US or Europe, for that matter. One can only resort to 'intermediary' stores like Speculative Fiction. Collectors need to do what needs to be done to get our fav pieces…
The Mad Demobot
US – Not Available. Fudge, but that is a legit head for Megatron.
Now if someone can make a toy out of that statue that will be grrreat.

Hot, damn. That new head is incredible!
I liked the older one, but that one is even better. It's really nice to see XM studios was listining to feedback and took it into account.
Haywired
Yup. The second head is purdy.
SPLIT LIP
That new head is awesome!
StellarJet
Many of us agreed that the original face of this statue did not actually look like the 'Megatron' we know and love…
So it looks like XM has listened to TF fans

'Bucket Head' they said… 'Sinister Smile' they said… 'Higher Cheek Bones' they said… 'I'd buy it if it comes with a second head!' they said…
So THANK YOU, here's the PO link https://www.xm-studios.com/products/megatron.aspx Tee Hee!
Every purchase from this post onwards contributes a cookie and coffee to Marthin Agusta Simny who rushed this extra head out for us despite his busy schedule. Thanks Bro!

Great design but the face absolutely breaks it. Should be slimmer and with more pronounced cheek bones. Much sharper features. This one looks somewhere between the movie Hulks or Apocalypse.
The rest of the sculpt easily could be a Travisformer Megatron…

…this is a cool-looking interpretation, but i wish his actual face was shaped more like megatron rather than some random lunk in really good cosplay…

XM said that Soundwave and Glock are in the works. Was in Bryan Tan video. He's the owner of XM.
