Along with the Starters not being announced for S2, we also don't see a Mega.
Lot's of possibilities: Unicron Primus Metroplex Trypticon Fortress Maximus Scorponok (G1, not BW) As well as the combined forms of any of the special teams -(Devastator, etc.)---<Thanks to ImmortalJedi for bringing up Devastator>
Scale would be extremely distorted for some of these characters, but then again, anyone who knows TFs, knows that scale, and for that matter, the laws of physics, don't apply!
And actually, since the Megas are mostly vehicles of some sort in the other Attacktix series, it's also possible that the Ark or Nemesis could appear!

Given that we've had two Autobot Megas, a Decepticon would certainly be due. I hope they don't cheap out and release a recolor of Omega Supreme or Omega Sentinel as Omega Devastator or something like that as a Decepticon, though.

As a matter of fact, with some extensive searching, I was able to find this extremely rare photo of the , yet-to-be-announced S2 Mega. I've grown used to there love of repaints, but Hasbro really got lazy on this one!

*Might actually repaint his to look like that* striking scorp green and liche purple from my old paints, and his legs are suitably mismatched to give that combiner look if painted to emphasis so.
Its gonna be done today *decisively*
As for other combiners, Id love to see Superion (Aerialbots - couldnt stand the protectobots) and either Menasor or Bruticus, all G1 of course.

Too bad my local Target sold out ages ago, or I'd go for a clearanced Omega Supreme and do a repaint myself. ---Dave

*Has done it, not yet completely finished though*
Posted it under Custom Transformers in the Customs area.

|sf>*tries very hard to stop laughing at the Omega repaint*
*finally succeeds after two minutes*
Actually, a possibility might be a vehicle form like the G2 Megatron tank, ie. something huge that could possibly be reused for a different line.
Along those lines, logically what "big guys" from Transformers could be recycled/recolored? I can only think of a small number (most of which have been mentioned):
Devastator (green, yellow, orange) Bruticus (G1 colors, G2 colors, RiD colors) the Build Team combiner (RiD colors, Universe colors) Superion (G1 colors, G2 colors)
and the fan dream that will never happen:
jumbo Kremzeek (He could be in all manner of colors and could possibly be a striker.)

Looks like the overstock got shuffled around...despite having been out of Megas for months, the local Target just got some in their clearance aisle. So I snagged a spare Omega Supreme for kitbashing. ---Dave

Hm. Since the straight repaint has been done (and looks pretty good), I'll be doing some physical mods too. I'm adding a crane to the left shoulder and replacing the left arm with an arm from one of those $1 pseudo-Optimus Prime knockoffs. And cutting off the antennae from the head to make it look a little more Devastatory in cross-section. ---Dave

Webhead stated on the tfw2005 forums that the Optimus Prime and Megatron (G1) that we saw at botcon will be in the series 2 starters www.tfw2005.com/boards/showpost.php?p=1020824&postcount=53I'm hoping the the other 2 models in the 4 pack are prime and megs alt modes. Here's some megas I'd like to see: 1. G1 Trypticon 2. G1 Predaking 3. G1 Metroplex 4. G1 Omega Supreme (although that's very unlikely) 5. Cybertron Metroplex
