I got this to fulfill my kingdom/legacy beast wars collection, with a "guess I have to" mentality. When it showed up before Christmas I was blown away. Especially that dragon claw/robot chest design. I've never been so surprised by the final product of Transformers Toys in a long while.
Standing at my computer at work this morning and I remember I haven't seen a video from this channel for a few days. I say out loud in a high pitch voice: Ooohhhh Gavin". Then I was like wait, did I just say that? Bloody hell he's in my brain!
So glad Beast Wars Transmetal Megs is doing better these days. Not nearly as sad as when he was drooping his head across the ground in “car” mode. Great dragon transformation too.
If theres one thing about you that I always enjoy, its the fact that your reviews of these newer toys really tempt me into getting them I watched your mini review of Crankcase and lo and behold I got him and he's great! I might need to check this guy out now
Glad you got this review out, I was having a bit of FOMO on this thing, kept thinking "what if its perfect and I don't get my grubby lil claws on it and end up really wanting it?" and here you are, making a 3 minute video on this thing as an overview, and assuring me it's not perfection but it's still good One of the best transformers review channels out here 'cause it tells it as is and doesn't sugarcoat a hunk of plastics shortcomings or praise it most of the video, this is gold.
Those wings man. I didn’t really have a lot of interest in this toy, since I recently got the OG Beast Megatron reissue, and I didn’t need another one right away. Then those wings man. They’re doing something for me. Now I want one…
this was an actually good review, I can’t believe you would do this. I have followed TRDQ for YEARS so i could scoff at it, like I could do so much better! (I can) I can’t believe you would make something good. What. the flip!
T2 Megatron certainly looks like a beast of a toy, but I wasn't too sure I wanted in general, especially at full price. (Which probably means I'll never get him any cheaper than that). But it does look like the kind of toy if you come by him one day with money in your pockets and a decent price tag, it's definitely not a bad purchase.
Already biased toward this thing, coz it was the huge Satanic dragon I've wanted, and the other option for it was $200, so no way Jose. But even without that bias, THIS is still easily the best Leader in Legacy, Evolution included, and possibly one of the top Leaders of the line starting in Siege. Lacks a lot of gimmickry of Laser Prime and Blitzwing, but makes up for it in design and SHEER PRESENCE AND AURA!!!
"Dear, they had a sale on 3-D printers! Buy a Transformer, and also buy a 3-D Printer for every gap-fill! "why are you looking at me like I've you kidnapped, Princess? My Queen?"
this toy has only made me want more of these hard plastic fire blast effects, the soft ones peel paint and are therefore no good for leaving on the figures for even three minutes
"The color of my pee" It couldn't be more accurate after 4 shots of Pálinka and 1 Faxe Beer, it could be that I smashed other things down there, or I accidentally downed an entire bootle of Cherry Syrup... It's a wild night. I might even do a BW Megs vid on my channel out of it, who knows... Even I don't.
excellent review gavin, chef kiss; but you never tell me if you want a ko apc optimus prime first edition? he's perfect just it cant look up, and how much for your botcon strika?
You really still feel that way about Legacy Prowl? Not judging, not in the slightest. Just... like Arcee and Knock-Out are so much worse. And don't get me started on the upcoming Shadow Striker. Literally just RiD 2001 Sideburn with none of the charm.
Prowl is a good toy but has much less personality than the original, imo. I acknowledge that for some people, it's not a comparison they can make since Animated Prowl is now ancient, like me.
