In case anyone is interested I worked out a modification using simple materials, making him faithful to this g2 self and can be stored
in tank mode as well

I got mine in yesterday from Shapeways. The Grey's are a close color match. I like it.

Received mine finally yesterday. Got a minor scuff on the little orange circle on the chest and it appears one of his brows(?) is not painted.
Otherwise he is ok. Dont have prior experience with the mold (still waiting for the siege one to arrive). Overall it does somethings good, something bad, could have been better and I am surprised they didnt bother with a cannon adapter. Also surprised he kept the fusion cannon and not given a gun. Guess a weapon piece from the brunt mold replicated would do the job.

Very true, when I came across this, debated the price in my mind. Ended up ordering it. Don't think I will regret it though.
At Same time wondered how hard it was to design though. Seems like a simple design.

Now, we're talkin', but if only they made it for 3d printers and not Shapeways only. I've used their stuff, I like it, but their wait time is pandemic level long before the pandemic. And for that kind of money, you need to print it now, ship it now, and get it to me fast. I mean, some kits are $50.00 for some guns and snap-on pieces! (And that's before the shipping and tax!)

Saw on Shapeways a adapter for G2 Megatron, using his arm cannon.

Mine just came in today and DAMN is he stunning. I love the orange eyes on him, and the headsculpt is definitely a whole lot better in person. My only real complaints are a lack of a spot to put the cannon on the shoulder, and the lack of the 'big stick' text on the cannon.
Almost makes me want to replace my siege Megatron for this guy, but I'm most likely gonna display him with my Predacons as Megastorm.

I’ve got mad love for all the G2 covers, but this was always one of my favorites. Excellent work

Look up Jada Toys Nano Metalfigs, they have a G.I. Joe 6 pack of 1.65" figures that includes Duke, Snake Eyes, Cobra Commander, Baroness, Destro and Storm Shadow.

Megatron is supposed to be arriving today. Last update was in GA and I live in CA… Not going to say it's impossible but I won't hold my breath
Qabiri
Same. I think this is the money pose for this figure. Now I just need a miniature Cobra Commander to go with him

Received mine yesterday. Was honestly expecting to be disappointed in the mold, but in-hand I’m actually liking it quite a bit, despite its flaws.

And I just got the invoice…

From what I've observed, Amazon.com per se doesn't offer Gen Selects figures, only 3rd party sellers on Amazon, that's why they're always some sort of mark up.

My supplier hasnt received theirs yet, and I wonder if I Should keep the PO up…..
