Description
This custom Transformers toy was made for Sector 70's Megatron Challenge. I based it on the 1st of Alex Milne's Megatron designs from the Megatron: Origin mini-series.

This figure began life as a Generations Skullgrin. The head was swapped with a Classics 2-pack Megatron. The stock hands were also articulated. I modified the turret barrel-end into a jackhammer chisel, to better reflect the future Decepticon warlord's humble beginnings as an Energon miner. This is also the first weapon with which Megatron took a life. I felt that was very important and integral to the character.

Admittedly, I took some artistic liberties with the alternate mode. It is a mobile excavation platform/light Energon transport vehicle.

Krylon camouflage ultra flat was used for primer, with Mr. Hobby dark gray used for the base coat. Games Workshop, Model Master, and Testors paints were used for detail work. The Energon cubes were made by using Reprolabels' sticker sheet. The decals were custom-made and designed by me, and sealed with Testors Dullcote.
