Taking a look at another MDLX release from Threezero – MEGATRON. This is their smaller scale, non-transforming action figure line, which is Generation 1 inspired. Modern designs remix the old school looks while infusing them with tons of articulation and high quality paint. They also come in at a significantly smaller price point than the DLX and Premium scales. Megatron features 45 points of articulation, stands around 7 inches tall, has multiple hands and his Fusion Canon. If you are looking for a great desk mate you can pick up and play around with, this Megatron is a joy to pose and looks great too.
Threezero was kind enough to send through a copy a little early, he’s due to ship right about now, so get ready. Read on to check some in-hand pics, then hit our sponsors below or the Threezero Store to pick up your copy!

The only figure I've seen them get later than other retailers is DLX TLK Optimus.
I ordered MDLX Prime, Bee and Megatron from ShowZ and they were released at the estimated release dates, just as TZ, and at the time were the actual retail price.

If this happens we can cancel our orders from Show.Z to save some money. The fact it hasn’t been listed yet by any US seller make me think maybe it’s going to be an exclusive somewhere. That’s speculation based on almost nothing, but I think it’s a possibility. And for some reason I’m thinking it might be Sideshow. 95% I’m wrong, but I’m sticking to it.

For US customers, buying at any of the North American stores will have ThreeZero product cheaper. You'll pay more and wait longer through ShowZ and others, and its around a $20 difference, give or take. Of course you'll have to hit the $150 mark to get free shipping and some charge tax, but these can easily be avoided at certain stores like TCP and Toy Dojo.

I did a quick scan of BBTs, TFSource and the big three Chinese retailers I use, and only Show.Z seems to have put it up for sale at this point. So I’d keep an eye on your favorite retailers.
It’s always possible it might show up as a North America exclusive to BBTS or Sideshow too

Yeah, don't sweat it. No movie filth is infecting the MDLX line.

Yes, I ordered mine last week from Show.Z, but they are currently sold out.

MDLX Mirage Preview from threezero Transformers Rise Of The Beasts
Looks like 3zero is doing an MDLX Mirage. No offense to anyone, but that is DUUUUUMB!!!
G1 or go home……..
EDIT: Article says MDLX but it is the larger scale DLX.

He is 100% consistent, I just wish he had a smirk.

Now here's some nice style. Skywarp's blasters would be better in purple though. Companies struggle to ever get all of his unique details in line.

Jazz looks good, I'm looking forward to see a painted prototype.
DeathsTreads77
That jazz is looking real nice. I may get it

Thanks for the pics, it makes me more comfortable with the design.

Even though I recently got OP, I do hope he gets a re-do. The main thing that bothers me is the head and the latest releases do have better designed heads.

you know, they could have throw in a new Head for him with future release and we would all be happy

I just realized something about MDLX Megatron, his "eyebrows" on his helmet remind me of TFP Megatron's.

It's probably going to be like Sideswipe.
