Every Blokees Megatron Compared: Classic Class 2007, Transformers One and Dark of the Moon, Megatronus, and Action Edition G1

Every Optimus needs a Megatron, and Blokees has made one for almost every Optimus it sells. The six kits share a name and little else: two cost $39.99, stand about 7 inches tall and come with a throne; four cost $19.99, stand about 5 inches and come from three different films. We compared Blokees’ published specs and owner reviews rather than building the kits, and checked every price on Blokees’ US store on November 10, 2026. Every kit links to our researched review, and you can compare all of our researched kit reviews in one place.

How do all six Megatrons compare side by side?

Blokees sells Transformers kits in tiers, and the Megatrons sit in two of them. Classic Class is the roughly 5-inch, $19.99 tier with light-up eyes and chest; Action Edition is the larger $39.99 tier with inner frames, magnetic lights and far more accessories. Our line comparison explains the tiers, and you can see every Classic Class Transformers kit we cover in one place.

Specs are Blokees’ own, as recorded on its product pages; “Not listed” means Blokees leaves the field blank. Cents per piece is our arithmetic from list price and piece count, rounded to the nearest tenth.

Two naming notes. Blokees has started calling its 5-inch tier Champion Class, and TFW2005’s post on Megatronus files it under “Blokees Champion Class,” which it says was “formerly known as Classic Class”; Blokees’ own store still lists all four kits as Classic Class, so that is the name we use. Megatronus is not a second Megatron from the same film: in Transformers One, Megatronus Prime is one of the Thirteen, and D-16 takes his name. Classic Class 20 is the Prime, Classic Class 12 is D-16 after he becomes Megatron.

Blokees publishes no piece count for the grey Action Edition; owners on r/Blokees say it is the same kit in different plastic, which would put it at 256. The Classic Class kits light up from built-in battery modules, while the Action Editions switch on with a magnet you hold near the chest.

Action Edition 02 G1 Megatron: is the $39.99 kit worth double?

Action Edition 02 G1 Megatron: 45 points of articulation, magnetic lights, three faces and a throne, $39.99.

For most G1 fans, yes, and the reason is everything around the figure: a three-layer build with armor panels that open to show the inner frame, three swap faces, a Laserbeak kit, a Reflector accessory and a 6.89-inch throne with compartments for every accessory. Blokees lists no height or piece count; TFW2005’s in-hand post from November 2024 calls it an 18-cm kit, a little over 7 inches. The throne is also why the box is 12.6 inches tall against 3.54 inches for a Classic Class box, so plan storage before it arrives.

Tformers reported in February 2025 that the kit first reached US comic book stores through Previews at $34.99 for a March 2025 release. Blokees’ own store lists it at $39.99 now, so a $34.99 tag is the older price, not a markdown.

Owners single out the throne storage, a stand that also fits other figures, the opening calves and the double-jointed elbows. The one-star review calls the panel seams and part fit poor, and one owner wishes the fusion cannon lit up too. Skip it only if you want a short build or a listed piece count before you pay.

Energy Explosion Ver.: what does the clear purple version change?

The Energy Explosion Ver. on the Throne of Nemesis with Laserbeak. Blokees lists 256 pieces and a height of about 7.28 inches.

Three things: the plastic, the parts list and the paperwork. The plastic is clear purple with silver and battle-damage detailing Blokees does not describe on the grey version; TFW2005 posted the first images in October 2025 and calls it a “special clear purple version” of the same Action Edition 02 kit. On top of the grey kit’s accessories, Blokees lists a handgun, a Kremzeek figure and a translucent Shockwave in gun mode, and it publishes a piece count and height, two numbers it leaves blank for the grey one. The price is the same $39.99.

Laserbeak, Kremzeek and the Shockwave gun mode make the Energy Explosion box the fullest of the six.

The loudest owner feedback is on Reddit, where an owner posted “Do Not Buy Megatron: Energy Explosion Action Edition” in April 2026 over loose finger joints, leg armor that would not stay put and knee joints that took full body weight to seat. The replies split: some owners had the same finger trouble on Action Edition Soundwave, one says Megatron does not sit in the throne the way the box shows, and several built both Megatron versions without trouble and put it down to parts not seated fully. One reply suggests clear plastic simply holds a joint less well than solid plastic.

Decide between grey and clear before you open either box. Blokees’ pages say refunds need the item back “in their original, unopened, and sealed packaging,” with the customer paying return shipping.

Classic Class 10 and 12: which 2024 movie Megatron is the quicker build?

The 2007 film Megatron is the oldest kit here. TFW2005 posted in-hand images of the Classic Class 2007 Optimus and Megatron pair in June 2024 and described them as simple, fun kits with a touch of “chibi” proportions and a bit more height than earlier Blokees figures. With the fewest pieces of the six, it is the quickest build and the one with the least to go wrong, though one owner found it a step up in difficulty from the matching Optimus. It was released with Classic Class 09 Optimus Prime, the kit it is built to face.

Classic Class 12 is Megatron in his final Transformers One form, after D-16 takes the name, and TFW2005 ran Blokees’ first images of the Transformers One Optimus and Megatron pair in September 2024. Two display stands in the box are generous at $19.99. Owners are more mixed here than on any other Classic Class Megatron: the complaints are about a skinny, smaller-than-expected figure and, in two one-star reviews, parts that were flimsy and hard to fit, with one owner leaving the kit unbuilt. He faces Classic Class 11 Optimus Prime at the same price and scale.

Classic Class 20 Megatronus and 22 Dark of the Moon: which 14+ kit is the better value?

Classic Class 20 Megatronus: 107 pieces, 20 points of articulation, trident and blast effects, $19.99.

Megatronus is the strongest value of the four Classic Class kits, and Blokees spells out his articulation where the other pages do not: enhanced knee bending, lateral shoulder movement, double-jointed elbows and hip extension. He is rated 14+, two years higher than the earlier Transformers One kits. Owners describe a smooth build and armor detail that stands out, and the only notes against are a slightly fragile feel and a build one owner clocked at about three hours. He shares a scale with Classic Class 11 Optimus, so Transformers One fans can build the cast around one Prime.

The Dark of the Moon Megatron is the newest Classic Class kit; TFW2005 posted Blokees’ first images in November 2025, after the Dark of the Moon Bumblebee reveal. Blokees lists a damage-scorched head sculpt and a flexible waist, and unlike the film he comes without his hood or cape. His eight owner reviews are the fewest of the group, and they are the only ones to say the figure barely moves; two others say joints were tight out of the box and loosened with gentle adjustment. He belongs with Classic Class 21 Jet Wing Optimus Prime at $27.99 or Classic Class 24 Sentinel Prime at $19.99.

How do the Megatrons scale next to each other and next to Optimus?

At about 7.28 inches, the Action Edition Megatron stands roughly two inches over any Classic Class kit.

The four Classic Class Megatrons are within about a third of an inch of each other, so they share a shelf without one towering, while the Action Editions stand about two inches taller; mixing the tiers puts a 5-inch Megatron against a 7-inch Optimus. What matters more is which Optimus each one faces, because Blokees built the pairs to match. Our Optimus Prime comparison covers the other half of each pair, and our display guide covers risers, dust and light for kits with LEDs.

Are there Megatrons in the Galaxy and Shining blind boxes?

Yes, several, if you accept that a single box is random. These are smaller kits than Classic Class, sold at $8.99 (Galaxy Version) and $12.99 (Shining Version) a box, and our blind box explainer covers how the boxes, whole sets and chase figures work. A whole set costs more than a Classic Class kit and repeats happen, so if you want a specific Megatron, the six named kits above are the way to buy one.

What do owners report about each Megatron?

Megatronus owners praise the smooth build; one calls him a little more fragile than other kits.

What follows is paraphrased from the reviews on Blokees’ store as we recorded them for our reviews, plus the Reddit thread linked above. Counts are small on two of the kits, so treat them as early signals.

The pattern: Action Edition complaints are about fit and fingers, the price of 45 joints and articulated hands; Classic Class complaints are about size and sturdiness, the price of $19.99. Keep the box until the build is done, since one Action Edition owner reported a missing fusion cannon part and Blokees’ Megatronus page says its team will help with specific part requests.
