Megatron's only weakness...

Dramon · Post by **Dramon** » Thu May 05, 2005 6:45 pm

is cream cheese, in Season 2 (part2 for dvd owners) where Tracks gets smashed up and that guy fixes him up episode. near the end, Megatron picks up the little guy and when Megatron is bartering with the Autobots, the kid just flips open Megatron's chest and sprays cream cheese in there, then Megatron just falls over. I was laughing incredibly hard, but then a sudden depression fell upon me as now one of my favourite villians just fell to a product by Kraft.

Oh, I thought you were going to say a counterattack.

Surely that's Megatron's greatest weakness...

Dramon · Post by **Dramon** » Thu May 05, 2005 7:11 pm

well that too.
The way i see the cartoon now goes something like this
*decepticons attack autobot base*
*autobot's start to lose*
Megatron: THEIR DEFENSES ARE BROKEN GO IN FOR THE KILL!
Optimus: We'll give you anything you want
Megatron: DESTROY THEM!!!!
Optimus: We'll give you our most powerful weapon if you spare us our lives
Megatron: THEY'RE BRINING OUT THEIR MOST POWERFUL WEAPON! RETREAT!!!
Optimus: I thought you were made of sterner stuff Megatron!

I always thought Megatron's only weakness was, well, everything.

having Starscream as his second in command?

Yeah, for someone with "no known weaknesses", Megatron sure had alot of failings. Perhaps his weaknesses were unknown because he'd killed everyone that knew his weaknesses. It's not that he didn't have 'em, he just kept 'em secret. heh

[from a various mix of continuities; none was specified, so sue me, bitches...]

- Can't fire himself in alt mode.
- Unable to grasp the idea of transforming when placed in this situation
- Complete lack of any strategic skills.
- Kept Starscream around for no apparent reason, and even resurrected him to stuff things up at one point.
- Kept most of the Decepticons around for no apparent reason
- Completely lost memory when fell in some snow.
- Didn't really seem to want to kill Optimus Prime at all, more interested in sub-Bondian clone/fire him into the sun/crush you with my bare hands bwahahaha black-hattery.
- Unable to hit a bloody thing.
- Attempted to make the whole Earth into new Cybertron, ten square feet at a time.

Etc.

Or maybe Megatron hire a bounty hunter to kill people who know his weaknesses.

It could be a possibility you know...I somehow disagree with his tech specs they say he's got no weaknesses...surely there are at least some flaws to his otherwise brilliant design...

Megatrons only weakness is the whistling sound the wind makes between his ears.

Is Megatron German? After all, his head resembles a German war helmet and he transforms into a German WWII pistol...

If that's the case, his weakness is imported beer.

Dark Dranzer · Post by **Dark Dranzer** » Mon May 09, 2005 3:16 am

No I don't think he's German...wrong accent...His weakness maybe Starscream...I don't know why Megatron lets him hang around and it is obvious that he's vying for Megg's job...I never got their relationship together...it's too confusing for me.

All of their quarrels were lovers' spats.

He was just a freaking idiot....for example, G1 #19...Starscream, Skywarp and Thundercracker get totalled by Omega...

megs: "you're nothing more than an Autobot coward...."

says it all really

Dark Dranzer · Post by **Dark Dranzer** » Tue May 10, 2005 3:02 am

Hmm...You've got a point there...still I'll never get their relationship together...on another forum one person thought that Starscream was a girl...I'm not suprised there...he does sound like one.

i'm sure he also had a soft stop for the Female Ninja Robot from season 2 and his greed is also a valid weakness but i think out off these two weakness hes biggest weakness is that he's a coward he yells "Decepticons! Retreat" far too often atleast in the comic he had a backbone and was nutty as well:D

I'd like to lobby for a pact whereby all Transfans agree to never acknowledge the existence of Nightbird ever again.

Like nobody mentions you-know-who's appearance in #3 of the US comic.

It would make the world a better place.

It was a can of spray paint that clocked up his internals but cream cheese would have been much more enjoyable
