Megatron was the leader of the Decepticons in the Transformers toyline and various spin-offs from it. In some versions of the Transformers storyline he was later transformed into Galvatron.
In the original toyline and spinoff animated series (referred to as "Generation One" or "G-1"), Megatron transformed into a Walther P-38 handgun. The "G-2" Megatron transformed into a tank.
Megatron's second-in-command was Starscream, who constantly attempted to usurp leadership of the Decepticons in various overt and covert attempts. In Transformers: the Movie, Starscream personally threw Megatron from Astrotrain on their way back to Cybertron. As he floated in space, the planet-destroyer Unicron "summoned" Megatron for a task: destroy the Autobot Matrix of Leadership. For this task, Unicron "reformatted" Megatron into Galvatron (who transformed into a mortar-style cannon). His first deed as Galvatron was to find Starscream (presiding over his own coronation as Decepticon leader) and disintegrate him with one shot from his cannon mode.
Galvatron found Ultra Magnus (the current bearer of the Matrix) and destroyed him, taking the Matrix from his scattered parts. Hot Rod found him within Unicron's interior, attempting to open the Matrix and use it to destroy his master, and claimed the Matrix in battle. The waves of energy from the Matrix threw Galvatron through Unicron's outer shell and into space and then destroyed Unicron.
The Beast Wars Megatron is a different entity, who transformed into a tyrannosaur as leader of the Predacon faction stranded on ancient Earth. As the toyline produced more variants, Megatron changed into a "Transmetal" form, and then into a dragon.
