I've never been a fan of Inferno's design, but this might be one of the most perfectly engineered toys I've ever seen in terms of his transformation and articulation.
Personally, I like those smooth, sleek legs. This toy is very cartoon-accurate both in its robot mode and vehicle mode - and best of all, it has quite a slim backpack. Definitely a masterpiece.
You did this transformation perfectly. Smooth , clean , and easy to follow. Also , the engineering alone is worth the price . Great review as always bud !
Who doesn’t love a shiny red firetruck?!! That back transformation is super cool 😎 “Hey, Inferno! I got something to tell ya!” “Go ahead.. I’m all ears” 🤣
Emgo!!!! Almost a perfect video cept for one thing! You don't have to remove the cannon from his arm when you bring out his hand. The whole cannon can fold up inside his arm without having to remove it :D Also, I'm shore I'll be the thousand'th person to say it, but the biting hose was from Season 2's Prime Target
I like the direction they're going. Might sound like blasphemy but I would like to see an Optimus Prime in this style. Mp Inferno has one of the best and clean transformations in the line. Mmc had it for me until Takara brought their A game.
Awesome that they made a Masterpiece Phoenix King figure. Really underrated anime. I kid of course. And I'm a little sad I haven't already gotten an Inferno.
Wow, you are the first one to talk about weapon storage in bot mode. It's one of my personal gripes about MPs in general, why can't they just make a notch for the guns to store in bot mode?? Glad they finally did it (beside MP10.. which was great in that department)
Still can't get used to the plain cartoon aesthetics, so not regretting getting the Maketoys version at all - Hellfire looks much more interesting/expensive and has die-cast for a lower price.
Given how RU-vid now puts an emphasis on Likes and Comments maybe you should do things that would generate 1000 comments. :) Also great sound quality in your videos. I could hear the card hitting the floor and the metalic ratchet on the feet parts.
I hope you went with MP 36, he's basically the perfect G1 representation of Megatron. And just an amazing Megatron figure in general, but he is a bit pricey.
I was watching bobby skullface's review of Inferno and he has the same issue with Infernos arm panel with it not tabbing in securely. He manage to fiddle around with it and got it to close properly I think you might have to do the same
what do you do with the cards and boxes? because the boxes and cards to me are badges of accomplishment. to me the third party transformers are better than hasbro and takara . sometimes.
I just realized that some of the g1 transformer guns look a lot like gundam guns. Could someone tell me if there is a designer that worked on transformers that was from gundam? Thx
It's mostly due to Transformers originally being transforming mech toys (basically transforming Gundam), and when they got turned into a cartoon, they gave each robot a character. tl;dr Transformers used to be Gundam.
Zenu: " Now Red, uh, Ranger truck? Zord??, with your weapons neutralized you are powerless to stop meh" Inferno: "Hah Lord Zenu, you didn't count on my true power, for my saving juices comes from within! Watch and be amazed" Zenu: 😱
Ya know noe that into Bionicle now mascot kinda bugs because I'm not used to seeing stronius with his neck fully extended and now he he has a huge gap in his chest plate
I got my Inferno around christmas time, and I just now noticed something wrong... HIS SIRENS ARE MISSING! Instead, there are just tabs. I'm not upset about this, infact just confused. Mainly because it took me nearly 2 months to notice. Does anyone else have this problem? Is it just me? Or am I an idiot?
i have to come back to this video and reverse engineer it EVERY TIME i try to turn him back into truck form. I find packing everything inside the cab horribly unituitive. I have the same issue with hound's arms while transforming him back into Jeep mode. I have to refer back to your video on him every time as well.
You know guys, since Transformers have the tendency to get remolded and redecoed, with the coming of Masterpiece Cheetor, I hope Takara is making a Masterpiece Tigatron. Cos that will be awesome seeing those two side by side or with Masterpiece Optimus Primal.
