Third Party company Shockwave Lab have uploaded, via their Weibo account, images of their new SL-77 SL-80 Fusion Cannon for Studio Series SS-54 Megatron.
This kit contains a new fusion cannon with LED effect. Easy to connect and it can be used by both arms. A nice alternative to improve Studio Series Voyager Megatron for your display.
We still have no concrete information on price or release date. It should not take long since Shockwave Lab upgrade kits are usually available online once they share images of the product. See the mirrored images after the jump and then share your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

This almost seems more the Lockdown's spark extractor.
Mr.Deflok
OK.

I'm not sure something that has slightly over 3 seconds of screen time in one movie in a multi-movie series should be called iconic.
skywarp-2
you may be right.. It could be the smaller fusion cannon we are seeing..

So Megatron's fusion cannon is an over-sized alligator mouth? WTH?
Skyclaw
You and me both my friend!! Come on DNA!

If this was a cheap thing ie no led, I'd pick it up. Not accurate but it matches the movie 1 design more than a straight up claw would; even though it's integrated the MPM cannon looks like a handheld pistol. not at all integrated or matching the aesthetic of the rest of the arm. This made up one looks like the two-armed one if it was one armed, or the ROTF one with the same level of monster removed from that to movie 1's robot mode.
Hoping for the two-armed cannon because of presumed price but otherwise

Nah, that’s the small version of the fusion cannon that the MPM includes.

YEP! I saw it. right when he first shoots jazz. It did have a jagged looking mouth to the gun. Maybe there is a CG Model from the movie somewhere online, or in a book?
Rogzilla
It seems as though they were basing it on the ROTF crab claw gun. If they are gonna make up a gun, make it a G1 style fusion cannon. I would enjoy that quite a bit.

I'm hoping DNA Designs releases a kit for him that gives him a new mace and the two-handed cannon.
Skyclaw
This looks cool, but rather have an updated posable mace/Flail for this Megatron.
Mr.Deflok
Huh, the double-handed one is more iconic. Pretty sure the figure has the articulatuon to hold it too by virtue of the shoulders transformation joint.

Megatron may tell you that's his Fusion Cannon but we all know that's his roach holding hand.

Not movie accurate, seems like it’s just trying to be a G1 cannon in Movieverse aesthetic especially with the purple light. But it’s kinda cool.
Seth Sunthay
Yup, he used the canon in one arm (also the reason why the mpm8 does that as well), but the design of this kit seems rather different. (It's not like you can see it clearly in theovie anyway)
TheDude810
This isn’t accurate in the slightest, but it looks awesome!
Skyquake21
Its similar to the TLK cannon, with the \"teeth\" . I actually really like it. Tbh the double arm thing from the movie wouldnt be fun to pose for me

Some more pointy shapes to attach to a character comprised of indiscernible pointy shapes!
