BW megatron and G1 megatron

Post by jazz007 »

From wat BW megatron said, G1 megatron was the greatest leader in decepticon history.
Now, after watching BW and BM, do u tink Bw megatron is as good as G1 megatron in terms of cunning, intelligence, scheming, firepower... and if better, replace G1 megatron and became the greatest leader in decepticon history....

personally i feel thay BW megatron is as good as G1 megatron or even better... cus he did many things that G1 megatron didnt do... having great plans like changing cybertron into a total technical planet. he is even more ambitious than G1 megatron.

G1 Megs was worse than Starscream... though I think both Megatrons were equally ambitious. The difference here is that BW Megs actually used his head, and his henchmen, effectively... and he also had a few nifty catchphrases. Yesssssss.

Sorry Death's Head, it doesn't work that way. The Maximals and Predacons are descendants of the Autobots and Decepticons who came to earth via transwarp technology about 3.9 million years before G1 began.

As for who is the better Megatron, I'll take BW Megs. He used Tarantulas' and Terrorsaur's scheming to further his goals through subtle manipulation of them. He seemed a little more combat-ready than G1 Megs, and had some cool alt modes.

Not necesarrily, G1 Megatron took his name from the Covenant of Primus and that was based on the events of Bw Megatron

I don't know about all that....I'll favor BW Megs in just about every category of comparison between the two, but G1 Megatron was nothing if not perfectly constructed for battle...whilst just about any Maximal could take out BW Megatron if his timing was right, the G1 article was untouchable to just about everyone but Prime...

G1 megs was more malevolent, where as BW megs was more cunning.

G1 megs had a cooler laugh (not that this makes any difference to his greatness), BW megs had alot of good one-liners ...

BA: why do you always talk to yourself?
Megs: I have a thing for intelligent conversations

(or something along those lines)

BW Megs rules everything. Yessss.

He's funny, cunning, vicious, and evil all rolled into one. Kinda like MiniMe.

I think both Megatrons are great. G1 Megs surely was more evil(though I have not yet seen BW or all of BM), but he suffered from being created a long time ago(I mean the toy/character), so his character was made in the style of the time back then. Megatron and Optimus Prime were the typical villain/hero - the villain will always fail no matter how good the idea was.

G1 Megatron because that is where BW Megatron got his name. G1 Megatron did control Cybertron for a while. The G1 tfs were stronger and better.

I liked BW Megatron way better that the G1 Megs. He was not just a brute fighter but also used his head more often..... he said it about all in one of these many episodes. *quote* Ahh yes, spiders spin their webs..... but I spin them larger. *quote end*
that was about the coolest line he ever said. :eek: :cool:

I must say that I agree with who ever said that Megatron (G1) was a perfect war machine. He was the most powerful decepticon ever. His fusion cannon was unbeatable. But Megatron conqured Cybertron by pure brute force and almost crushed the autobots completely. BM/BW Megatron could only do such a task when Primal was not there to oppose him. Plus BM/BW Megatron was no where near as durable as G1 Megatron. "I still function." Infact he only "died" when Unicron reformated him. On the other hand Primal took his Megatron out with his own death. "You Optimuses do love to sacrifice yourselves." So I must take a middle of the road responce and say they are great in their own right. But if I must pick one...I'll stick with G1 Megatron...but not by much.

Not sure he actually died in Unicron's refromating. Out of all tf the new Decepticons Megatron seems like the only one who still continued his essence via Galvatron. The others seemed like new bot minds put into recycled bodies.

I would agree except after the movie Galvatron became grossly incompatent. He just didn't have the same zeal as Meagatron did.

That´s because he became insane. It´s either because he was thrown in a lava pit(post movie, cartoon) or because he activated his time jump device(name?) too fast and travelled back in time to earth, falling from the outer rim of the atmosphere down(comic).
In either case, the heat didn´t really do him any good.
