Cardboard Cutout: Megatron

RRP: £27.99

Height Ft Ins 5ft 10

Cardboardcutout.net have produced a lifesize standee of Megatron.

New from CardboardCutout.net – a 179.2cm high cardboard cutout of the evil Megatron. That’s approximately 5ft 10 inches tall!

The vicious Decepticon has been designed to stand alongside Optimus Prime, also available, in the same scale. Optimus is taller as he’s holding his gun in the air!

It features artwork commissioned from fan favourites Simon Williams (artist) and Jason Cardy (colourist). The classic Generation One style artwork makes this a great gift for 80s nostalgists and Transformer fans alike!

Megatron is perhaps the greatest Decepticon leader in Transformer history. He has led his group of soldiers into battle against the Autobots on numerous occasions, but they have always been defeated…

Buy him here.

Cardboardcutout.net have produced a lifesize standee of Optimus Prime.

The leader of the Autobots stands over six foot tall in this official Transformers cutout.

It features artwork commissioned from fan favourites Simon Williams (artist) and Jason Cardy (colourist). The classic Generation One style artwork makes this a great gift for 80s nostalgists and Transformer fans alike!

Optimus Prime is the leader of the Autobots, and the greatest warrior in the history of the Transformers.

This full sized, high quality cardboard cutout is easy to assemble and the cutout has a fold-out strut to the rear which means it’s entirely self supporting.

Buy him here.
