You still fight for the weak, that is why you LOSE! Mighty Megatron is in the building today with a look at Masterpiece Movie MPM8 Megatron.  This is the latest in the Movie Masterpiece series, repping Megatron in his Movie 1 form.  He comes packed with arm extension, extending fusion cannon, and Allspark cube.  His head features light piping for the eyes and a moveable monster mouth.  He’s surprisingly accurate to the movie, you have a hard time telling what you are looking at without a lot of concentration.  For accuracy’s sake though, that’s what should have been done and it was.  He’s a big piece, standing 12 inches tall with some heft, lengths over MPM4 Prime.  Articulation is thorough, allowing for most poses you can think of.  Jet mode is solid, accurate to the movie.  All in all, if you are a fan of the movies, this is a really good rendition to represent on the shelves with.

We’ve run him through a set of pics, check out over 50 HD shots in the gallery below.  We’ve also attached some key shots to this story.

He’s in stock now and shipping from TFSource!

Siege Phantom Strike Skywarp 45

I feel like there is a Siege on my wallet this year with all these awesome Generations figures! Today we are taking a look at the freshly dropped Amazon exclusive Decepticon Phantom Strike Squadron 4 pack. The set contains Siege Skywarp, which is a repaint of Voyager Starscream, along with 3 *masters – Terror-Daxtyl, Fracas and Shrute. The crew is shipping now and if not already at your doors, should be soon. Right now this is the only way to obtain Skywarp, so if you want a trio of the classic G1 Seekers on your Siege shelf then you’ll need to pick him up. Thundercracker drops later in the year by himself. The set is well done, with awesome blast effects for the Masters that can be used in various ways on other figures, including Skywarp. Paint is well done on the big guy, capturing the original black, grey, purple tones.

Check it all out for yourself, we have over 45 HD images hot of the presses at the link below! We’ve also shared a couple key shots with this story.

Time for another round of Transformers War for Cybertron Siege galleries here at TFW2005!  Today’s primary gallery is for the recently dropped Refraktor – aka Reflector (damn copyrights).  Refraktor is technically a single deluxe figure with his own space ship like alt mode.  However, if you buy 3 of them – you can combine them into a space camera!  This is a throw back to the classic Reflector figures from G1.  Does it make sense? Who cares, space camera!  Overall the figures are well done individually, capturing the feel and colors of the cartoon Reflector from the past with a splash of modern upgrade.  The camera mode is great, each one of their shields is a third of the camera lens, and each of their weapons is a third of the camera tripod.  Really great way to update the original gimmick.

In addition to the Refraktor update we’ve added very basic updates for two more Siege figures – Galactic Man Shockwave and Deluxe Red Alert.  You can find their stub galleries below, we may add more shots to them over time.

Read on to check out all three figures courtesy of site sponsor TFSource!

Time for another round of Siege galleries!  Today we are taking a look at the recently released Transformers War for Cybertron Siege Commander Class Jetfire!  Jetfire is in a class all his own, towering over Leader class figures so he can stand in scale with his Siege brothers and sisters.  He is very faithful to his G1 cartoon look, in both modes.  As a bonus, there are modern versions of his original toy mode present with a snap on gear and battle mask.  To cap it all off he comes with blast effects that can be used on the weapons or his thrusters in jet mode.  All in all he is an impressive piece that touches that G1 nostalgia while upgrading him for modern times.  There have been a couple before this but none compare, this is the definitive version of Jetfire hands down.  We’ve run him through a gallery with over 100 HD images showing what he can do.   Click the image below to view the full gallery, or read on to check some key shots.
