Megaplex's Machine Wars packaging art is in fact a color-altered version of the card-art for the Predator jet Falcon.This piece can also connect to the back of his pistol barrel in robot mode, letting him "shoot from the hip", as it were.

Both of these modes can fire the small plastic bullets the toy comes with thanks to the spring-loaded "death charge unit" portion of his stock. (The original Takara version lacked all of the gun's add-on parts, having only the chromed rifle and sword, and of course the flail is new to the "bookbox" Megatron.) His scope, stock and silencer can combine to form a large "particle beam cannon" artillery mode, or attach to his robot mode to make a huge shoulder-mounted "telescopic laser cannon formation". Based on the " Transformers Collection" reissue of Megatron, this version comes with all of Megatron's accessories. The spring-loaded firing mechanisms inside both the toy's main body and the stock have has also been restored, letting the toy launch choking-hazard-sized projectiles in both pistol and robot mode. Released as an e-Hobby exclusive, Megaplex is a redeco of the original Megatron Walther P-38 pistol toy in the same colors as its original Takara Transformers release, itself a coloration used in the Microman line the mold originated in. Accessories: "Megasight" scope/"fusion cannon", two-part silencer ("focusing barrel" and "accelerator"), three-part stock ("death charge unit", "saddle", "cannon base"), "energy flail", "high-density infra-red ray laser gun", "electron sword", 20 "Freeze Shell/particle beam" bullets.For artillery he prefers liquid helium "Freeze Shells". Megaplex prefers close-quarters combat, tearing into his opponents with electron sword and energy flail. The deception is likely to work best on the battlefield, from a distance, or when Megaplex is following a strict script set by the original. Thus, though Megaplex is easily able to pass as Megatron for short periods of time, his intelligence, strength, firepower, and skill are capped at levels significantly below those of the real Megatron. Realizing that a being based so closely on his own nature and with equal power would be quite likely to make a play to permanently replace him, Megatron thus had his clones constructed with a failsafe device that significantly restricts their abilities. While Megaplex is ideally endowed with the same power as the original Megatron, the Decepticons' true leader is no fool. He has led many battles in Megatron's stead. He exists to foment confusion in the Autobot ranks and protect against traitors among the Decepticons.
