    3rd Party Megatron - $10 

    This is a little bit difficult to explain what I have here.

    As some know Hasbro / Takara are the makers of the Transformers line.  Due to some weirdness in law in Japan, other companies are allowed to make transformable robots that look like the Hasbro / Takara transformers but they must abide by the following rules.  They cannot use a process that Hasbro / Takara uses in the same scale and they cannot have an Autobot / Decepticon symbol on them.  So many companies make their own, what we call, "Third Party Transformers".

    I believe this is the Zhan Jiang Zhanjiang Mechanic Master - or what we call "Megatron" 

    Company "A" originally made their own version of a Megatron that would transform into a gun since Hasbro doesn't do that anymore. The Zhan Jiang version is from Company "B".  They utilized that design and dramatically increased the size and tweaked the transformation. 

    My sample has the sword, the purple lighting element installed in the head, the mace and the accessories for the gun. There are NO instructions. When I received this from China it was wrapped in an envelope with the parts shown.  However, if you study it you can figure it out.  I did while taking these photos.   "NOT" Megatron is 9" tall. 

    If not, here is the youtube video.  (No, this is NOT me)

    I ask for 50% cash in advance to ensure the buyer is committed to buying but I only get that when I am starting the work. in 30+ years I have never missed a deadline.

    When i ask for commissions from artists I've never dealt with this is what I ask for when negotiating price as well

    Ps I seriously do not get professional artists that take 3 years to do a commission.  I finish in one day.  Even when I was drawing and inking 7 pages a week while working full time I did all commissions in one day.  WTF

    Especially considering how simple most commissions are.  "I want captain america but the punisher logo on his shield"
    "Ok it will be 15 minutes.  Not 3 years or NEVER and ps thx for the money!"

    -I guess I'm not a 'professional'.

    PSH real pros misspell words or draw hidden dongs after the 3 years :baiting:
