We have a new Weibo update from third party company Dr. Wu. They have revealed the color prototype of their Extreme Warfare DW-E25 Menace King (Micromasters Scale Megatron).
This is a new entry in Dr Wu’s Extreme Warfare Micromaster scale line. The images show a really impressive G1 cartoon-style Megatron that transform into his classic Walter p-38 gun alt mode. An impressive design in such small scale. According to the information shared in Weibo, this figure is planned for release by the end of this year.
See all the mirrored images after the jump and then join to the ongoing discussion on the 2005 Board!

I have some Cyberverse Sharkticons on their way and am still waiting on my set of these mini bots to come in. Does anyone have some cyber sharticons and extreme warfare figures to do a size comparison? See if I wasted my $10

Yeah, he's not gonna be able to swing it over on top of his forearm like he needs to for that full-menace pose.

While understandable, I am a little bummed about that hinged elbow, since it seems like it'll hinder cannon-pointing poses.

If this is where the arm goes, they probably didn't want an exposed ball joint.

I'm finding the hinge-only right elbow to be interesting compared against the ball-joint left elbow. What about the TFing is limiting that right elbow?

I know marvel b already answered but this is basically what you can expect for wittle old Megs.

Is this Legends scale or smaller?

My only experience with that kind of thing has been futzing with Superbuy's Shipping Calculator, and was never really impressed. I might try again.
And it's not scalping if I plan on keeping them. I'm HOARDING them.

DUH. Of course it's the pre-shipping MSRP, but are you shipping these tiny bots separately one-by-one? The roller comes in a baggy and is less than 10g, the shipping is practically free when you throw it in a package with something larger. Even the regular sets are barely 200g and most parcel services charge the same for the first 500g onward. Seriously, if you can't take advantage of bulk shipping, reconsider who you're buying from and how you're getting your things shipped.
And you won't buy 50 of them, that's scalping.

Aliexpress seems to be charging more than Showz after shipping costs. If anyone has a link to a shop thats offering a savings on these bots, please share.

If I could nab a Roller for a dollar I'd have 50 of 'em already. I'm pretty sure that's a pre-shipping price tag.

very nice, reminds me a bit of that small version Hasbro/Takara did that was one of the last Megatron guns…

You said it yourself, it's available at those prices on Taobao and Ali. Don't blame it on Dr Wu that you have to pay extra. He's a Doctor, not a trans-pacific logistics expert.
therealsharky
That what she said…unfortunately.

ShowZ, sellers on eBay, many other retailers that jack prices for ppl in the US that have difficulties ordering from Tao and Ali etc..

I don't understand how they made this guy so small.

I don't know who is selling at those prices but they aren't friends.
