[QUOTE]Originally posted by PsyLiam: [QB] Maybe. Except that weren't the designs used by Sunbrow based on simplified versions of the character designs Romita had done by simplifying the box artwork? That seems as good a reason as any for Megatron to look different to the toy version. Although Megatron did have a different character design for the first two and a bit issues of the (US) comic. He abbruptly gets a new head and fusion cannon half way through the third issue, for some reason. So possibly they were using a prototype. Except that the cartoon version is based on the second comic design, and not the first, so what was the first one based on? Did the prototype have a black or blue helmet? Or was that a change Sunbrow made? Or Marvel? And as to the tapes, yeah, they were meant to be microcassetes, except that in the comic and cartoon we saw them put into normal sized tape players. Of course, maybe they have two alt-mode size settings, like Megatron's "human hand sized" and "Starscream hand sized" settings. But I can't see how you can get a robot that looks like, say, Ravage that becomes a proper cassette without a LOT of add on parts. And for a useless trivia fact that people probably already know: Takara did do a version of Soundwave (and Blaster) that could carry two cassettes. Woo. [/QB][/QUOTE]
