Rebuilding A Megatron

The Transformers Story about the Time-Traveling Tyrant or Just Really Angry Galvatron!

Is he Megatron’s unhinged future self, Unicron’s rebelious disciple, or an undead barbarian from Cybertron’s ancient past? Yes. GALVATRON is one of the most chaotic characters in Transformers history—and we love him for it. From his explosive debut in Transformers: The Movie to his unique IDW Comics run as a reanimated warlord who fights Deceptigods and ghosts alike, this video unpacks every wild twist in Galvatron’s timeline(s). Plus, we look at his ever-evolving toy forms—from G1 bricks to modern scream-ready sculpts. If you collect Transformers, read the comics, or just want to know why Galvatron is always yelling, this one's for you.

Ruining A Megatron

The Story about the Rise and Fall of Live Action Movie Megatron: From Menace to Meme

In this third part of my Megatron mini-series, I'm going in headfirst into the jagged mess of metal that is the live action movie version of Megatron—yes, the one who went from alien nightmare fuel in 2007 to dollar store villain in The Last Knight. I'm gonna break down how this once-iconic Decepticon leader somehow went from terrifying menace to... negotiating with humans? Whether you're a longtime fan of Transformers, a toy collector, or just love a good robot trainwreck, this one’s for you. So grab your AllSpark, mute Starscream, and join me as I dissect the good, the bad, and the transformium. Don’t forget to check out parts one and two in the description for the full Megatron experience—from origin stories to plastic glory!

Buying A Megatron

The Story about the Evolution of Megatron Toys: From Trigger Crotch to Tank Commander!

Megatron has transformed a LOT over the years—sometimes into a gun, sometimes a tank, sometimes… a car? In this second part of my Megatron deep dive, I blast through the many incarnations of Megatron toys from G1 to Masterpiece, from grungy Siege tanks to stylish Alternity Nissans and Nerf blasters in disguise. I’ll share which ones earned a spot on my shelf, which ones got the "hard pass," and which Megs had me questioning my life choices (looking at you, MP-05). Whether you're a GEEWUN purist, a CHUG collector, or just want to hear me rant about trigger crotches and orange barrel tips, this one’s for you!

Making A Megatron

The Story of MEGATRON: The Transformers Miner turned Megalomaniac.

Every great hero needs an equally epic villain—and when it comes to Transformers, they don’t get badder (or more misunderstood) than Megatron. In this deep dive, after a lot of dodging, I'll finally tackle the twisted, tragic, and kinda poetic rise of the Decepticon leader—from Cybertronian miner and reluctant gladiator to warlord with a vision (and a fusion cannon). Whether you're into G1 nostalgia, IDW lore, or just love a well-done villain arc, this is the Megatron origin story , straight from The Toyshelf. Just don’t expect a toy rundown…yet. 😏
