Megatron/Optimus Prime, known mostly as MegOp, is the pairing of Megatron and Optimus Prime from the Transformers franchise. Their rivalry and dynamic changes with every new Transformers canon, but they're almost always major players and can be shipped by fans.
The Transformers Gen One movie in 2024 helped fuel the ship, though their ship was popular for years before this.
