[@Halohunter553]

It definitely was an interesting trip to get him to you but I’m glad I could help again with getting you this guy

[@Drn_10]

the big man himself, halohunter

[@akmalfakhruddin7285]

thank you for your services my dude

[@windowbewbs9064]

Thanks dude.

[@dmonsef]

Shipping from Australia must have been a high cost?!

[@Drn_10]

@@dmonsef yep indeed.

[@skyatollah2skyharder276]

Ah, good. A legally acquired Motormaster.

[@allmight169]

I like how this Motormaster actually incorporates into the combine mode, making most of the upperbody bulk and the head instead of other Motormasters just turning into a backpack. I personally don't mind that Motormaster becomes a backpack but I do like what they did for this one.

[@nucleonegro9762]

Me too

[@MagiYellow]

But isn't every mainline Motormaster is like this

[@JL-pz3wd]

@@MagiYellow there's only been two mainline Motormasters after g1 that combine, the other being CW Motormaster who didn't have the trailer and formed the worst mainline combiner ever

[@MagiYellow]

@@JL-pz3wd yeah, I also just realize it myself

[@OmegaII]

Honestly, I don't mind cheating here and there. But the main body shell where you don't even need the leader bot feels like they went F-it don't even try.

[@Jimnuts]

I remember being 7 and seeing the commercial for Superion and Menasor a few days before Christmas,and like any child demanded Santa deliver ...that's the year I learned about Santa, hahha, but by God, I'm going to get Menasor this time. Can't wait to get Motormaster.

[@A_american_guy98]

I still believe in santa my guy

[@bumblered22stopmotions38]

@@A_american_guy98thats the key word, believe. Believing in something or someone means that its just what you think. (THIS DOES NOT APPLY TO ANY RELIGION! Every religious god is real, if you don’t believe in god, thats your belief. What im trying to say is santa is not real, my mom flat out told me when i asked her one time because my older brother is an asshole and kept telling me he’s not real.

[@Freak80MC]

I really like how this version actually forms a substantial part of the chest unlike the 3rd party versions where he was always just a backpack for Menasor

[@redfinale]

While this looking to be a very VERY stable combiner compared to just about anything from the Prime Wars trilogy, I dislike how much of Menasor the Motormaster toy actually is. While the arms are a sly way of pulling that part off, the legs will push in to the back and those panels Emgo was messing with will close to look like the underside of the leg toys, meaning from the front, it's going to be very Motormaster and less Dead End/Wildrider

[@ThyBigCheddar]

@@redfinale Unfortunate sacrifice of being cartoon accurate. For some ungodly reason the legs cars are on the back.

[@redfinale]

@@ThyBigCheddar yup. I would have overlooked it if the fold out panels were at least colored better so that the legs aren't motormaster grey the entire way down the front, or even try and mimic the arm gimick of having them literally separate in two to better adapt to the frame. Half of the car on the thigh, the other half on the shin with the break being at the knee

[@ThyBigCheddar]

@@redfinale Unfortunately it's grey in the cartoon. You just have to think of it Menasor wearing the stunticons as armour. Besides, it's engineering vs accuracy. If they really wanted it to be accurate, his arms would just be the cars, no transforming. But they added elbows. They want the balance of a good figure and an accurate figure.

[@redfinale]

@@ThyBigCheddar despite all this, still getting the set. I love me some combining robots and i don't think many of the prime wars combiner sets were done proper justice

[@wingedswordslayer]

I really do like how they did the battlestation mode instead of the typical city mode. I also like love how you can get basically a lanky Menasor out of the template sections.

[@Xenobears]

“Robots in disguise” proceeds to put their affiliation logo all over their alt mode. Admittedly, the Decepticons aren’t as interested in hiding, but you might want to use stealth and guile to *deceive* your enemies once in a while!

[@CountryMetal01]

at the point in the Series, when the Stunticons and Aerialbots came around the Transformers were pretty well known and Had Devastator and Dinobot brawls everywhere🙅‍♂

[@terrancelewis8474]

robots in disguise Cosmos an actual UFO: I’m gonna ignore that

[@papermelon]

There are literal robot dinosaurs, UFO’s and alien styled cars in this show, and you’re pointing out the small purple faction symbol he had in his realistic truck mode? 😂😂

[@gerardootero1149]

I hope that, with the right redecos and retoolings, we can get an Optimus Prime combiner with Jazz, Sideswipe, Mirage and Windcharger, as a reference to the G1 episode, “Masquerade”.

[@windowbewbs9064]

Or Optimus Maximus

[@EggstheGreat]

I mean shot in the dark, a Power Master Prime from this mold could be cool too.

[@porygonlite]

i was thinking the same thing!

[@siniquezu]

I've been waiting over 10 years since the fans project one released to see this

[@fabianrocha9924]

Windcharger might be a little hard but I think its doable

[@thebeestingconspiracy]

Dammit. I was going to sit Legacy out and even put vintage G1 on hold so I could save up for whatever they're going to be offering for the 40th anniversary, but then they go and plan a new dragon Megatron and you show me how beautiful this is... I might just pick this guy up. It's the Motormaster I wanted as a kid. Also I too dig the faux cab feet.

[@Blazko877]

Lol I stopped at combiner wars but studio series and the wfc trilogy drew back in because hasbro is clearly stepping up their game

[@johnnydoedoe400]

I finally got this guy a day ago. The motor master figure looks great but some of the panels feel soft in truck mode. The trailer feels premium and it does everything good. Can't wait to complete the Menasor combiner. It will be my first time owning a combiner. Great review as always Emgo.

[@THANATOS-PRIME]

I am so excited for this guy and the rest of the team. So far they all look amazing combined as well as individual figures. Sadly, gradually all of my combiner wars Stunticons started breaking so this is a much needed upgrade.

[@zannusx]

I can't wait to see what the 3rd party companies do to improve on this other then weapon upgrades

[@halite_g]

Toyhax will certainly have a field day with this thing

[@nightlypiano4116]

Poseable hands i assume, also new Legs to make em front-facing

[@JustIceWasTaken]

If I had the resources I'd make him a whole new non-partsforming trailer

[@hassanrao470]

I hope a company makes parts to let you have a complete Menasor on the frame and the individual bots displayed separately

[@ronaldpaterni5081]

I can’t fault you for doing the “chibi”/“superdeformed” Menasor, Emgo - I’ve done that with my Kreon Technobots - it’s just fun. The combined mode looks good, too, and the alt mode scales well for showdowns with Optimus. Thanks!

[@baseman2001]

Just got mine yesterday. OMG the transformation on motormaster is a lot more smoother and fluid. I actually kept up with you without pausing the video 30 times.

[@JoelJDurick]

Now I'm gonna have Master of Puppets stuck in my head all day. Great video, btw.🙂

[@imaginaryfriend4512]

"I had to do the goofy thing." If you didn't do stuff like that, Emgo, I probably wouldn't have subbed. :D

[@patrickhein6986]

Perfect timing on this vid. My Motormaster arrived today and he is awesome.

[@JROfDoom]

Waiting for a third party company to come out that specializes in making every single weapon ever bloosh compatible. The Mighty Bloosh.

[@JasonSawyer]

Master of Stunticons pulling their strings, twisting bumpers and smashing windscreens

[@Cwronaga216]

I kind of wish there was an option to reverse the legs on the combined mode so that the combined vehicles are facing forward for a more integrated look rather than just being tacked onto the back

[@pokeprime94]

Yeah I always thought it was weird with the original combiners to hide away the interesting parts. I imagine this will get a big upgrade kit with new knees, hands, sword, head maybe and feet.

[@patrickhein6986]

I was thinking the same. The Option to reverse the Legs would´ve been nice.

[@antiseize11]

There kinda is a way, you can rotate the knees so the cars are facing forward but will rob Menasor of his knee articulation

[@duke2go558]

So glad you showed how to put Dragstrip on the arms. I opened Motormaster first and had already extended the arms for Menasor. So I used the tip of the sword to disengage his mid section and then attached to forearm and bicep as needed.

[@TyphonMar]

Man I like the engineering on this guy. And the silhouette looks good too Edit: screw it I preordered him.

[@JeffsToyReviews]

He’s very interesting. I like the engineering and what they did with him. Great review

[@Alzeal07]

I love how wild they went with size classes, commander class got us a big robot, a big lion lynx, an insane voyager with a trailer, a great voyager with a combiner trailer.

[@RodimusPrime1982]

I'm happy for you and jealous of you at the same time Emgo! Lol! I can't wait for mine to ship from Amazon. Also I looked at screen captures of Drag Strip and he has a Decepticon symbol on his left shoulder if you decide to put one on yours

[@HMKronos]

Part of me hopes that since Legacy is doing Cybertron characters, we get a reissue of Cybertron Optimus from WFC

[@danielbrant6740]

23:26 Should've used the magic phrase "You stand because it's _normal!"_ 😆

[@hiruma7]

I like the combine mode for this Menasor. If the engineering is that good, I'm looking forward to the possibility of what they'll do for the Constructicons and Devastator.

[@myang12003]

I think they would just go back to traditional combining, because core class volcanicus actually has combining.

[@thecollector77]

Man thank you so much 🙏 I watched another video that the guys was just building it super fast and you couldn't even see what he was doing this video explains and shows everything perfectly thank you again. I gave you a sub and a like.

[@emgo316]

Glad I could help :)

[@williammcnee9954]

This figure arrived from Zavvi last week (I'm in the UK) and I'm happy with it. Got DragStrip coming in the next few days and will probably get the rest of the set when they're available. I'm glad EmGo makes these vids to transform these guys as some of the instructions are hard to understand. MM seems quite easy in comparison to some other bots though. He's is still in truck mode but I'll get round to transforming him soon. He's actually parked on top of MPP10's trailer atm :D

[@EnanoBuen19]

Now I can see where the budget is on this guy, me likes very much!

[@scyphaprime]

First of all, great video emgo. Second, I am waiting patiently for my Motormaster figure to arrive this fall. As a fan of Menasor (in all of his incarnations), I am really anticipating this set.

[@antiseize11]

Just got mines today, and i just simply adore this new Menasor!!! A really incredible figure in-hand

[@FitFreshMiami]

Thank you for always including the packaging of these figures unlike other people (cough, cough, Primevsprime)

[@krtos7514]

This is a cool Menasor/Motormaster, my only issues are the leftover part in the combiner mode and the lack of fingers articulation as Menasor, still the best representation we could ask for. Wonder if they'll do another combiner in legacy.

[@ShinGallon]

If we don't at least get a new Superion or Defensor I'll be shocked.

[@Chaos-Zakai64]

Optimus Prime, "My cab becomes my chest." Motormaster, "Well my cab becomes my feet!"

[@kyleking284]

This video was mad funny Bro!! Combiner Wars had one too many 😆 and the peg leg was hilarious🤣

[@kyleking284]

The G1 is sooo precious brings back fond memories🤖😃🌟 Thanks EmGo👍

[@changedname636]

This dude looks amazing, I’m loving the G1 looks to all the new transformers! They look sick!

[@bdao1593]

Motormaster comes inside a closed box package.

[@markcastellanet9672]

At least this motormaster plays a significant part of the combiner mode. I would rather all built in like MMC, but for a chug figure, this is pretty good and improves on xtb's back filler, ballast, motormaster.

[@kahlaarabbani2907]

If there are upgrade kits planned for this figure, I hope they start with the trailer wheels. Also kind of sad that it's only available in australia (for now), but it just means i'll have to wait even longer.

[@kingtony_xx_0517]

Generally how long would it take for Motormaster or even Wildrider to begin selling in the US? Australia has had them for weeks and Canada should've gotten them a few days ago, (I don't know If there are any patterns to follow with releases.)

[@SlowQQSlow]

I didn't think much of this figure when I first saw the pics. Now that I have him, I really like it...it is so solid and stable. The head sculpt is great. Already bought leg extensions. Waiting for a hand upgrade.

[@rainydayman2k]

Got mine in hand as it showed up at Target (right before BBTS was going to fulfil my preorder, so I cancelled that in time). Pretty pleased, though a) even having it in hand, I wish there was a way they could've hidden away the upper grille on the legs so it wasn't duplicated with the faux grille on the feet, b) it would've been nice if they could somehow have made it work with a longer, shorter-in-height trailer that was a little more proportional, instead of coming off almost super-deformed, and c) it had a regular-sized blaster. Maybe some third party will recreate the G1 gun, though.

[@liamwilliams1794]

When i first saw menasor i wasnt liking the fact you could have him as a full humanoid without any of the stunticons plugged into him, but with menasors head being attached to motormaster it does redeem it more. Ill still be getting them all though

[@LordMegatronVA]

SO happy getting this guy for christmas

[@williamhhorton]

Actually getting this guy sometime this week from Amazon. So hyped.

[@PizzaMeeple]

Can't wait to see what Toyhax comes up with on this one.

[@boilerfan18]

I really like that Motormaster is actually incorporated in combine mode. I’m so many others the trailer makes the whole body and Motormaster just plugs in the back and isn’t really needed.

[@CHASEMARC]

The gun emplacement is based on the episode where Optimus and the Autobots pretended to be them, Megatron was making a gun that needed menasor to use

[@dialNforNinja]

Turns out you CAN hang the gun pylon part off of Menasor ... sorta. There's no tabs or posts to hold it in place, but it'll stay on his back reasonably well if you mostly put it back in the U shape it attaches to trailer mode as, then jiggle it on around the arms/wheels backpack so the little multi-5mm-port side pieces hook onto the top of the torso on either side of his head. They're the only parts that even show from the front and his heel plates are already super long, so it looks decent enough and won't really take up more space on the shelf.

[@user-zb1es6vf7x]

Loved the metallica joke at the start

[@thegaminglord04]

That opening got me good

[@patrickdavidson9545]

god seeing the scale of the new one compared to the old one makes me so happy. glad that you're not required to buy any new ones they might make for them to all be in scale

[@myang12003]

The turret stand can be used as a jet pack. There's a port on the back of menasor for that.

[@alekesam]

That's pretty cool with the arm and Dragstrip. I split him and then attached him, I didn't know you can attach him to the arm and split him then.

[@SomewhereElseForSomethingElse]

Good to see that you still kept the Combiner Wars version. Thought you would have gotten rid of them long ago. At least CW Menasor doesn't have an Alpha Bravo, unlike the other 3. 😆

[@t24gamer]

What do you mean by alpha bravo?

[@stealthshdw74]

Im also in Australia and was so happy when i picked up one of these in store.

[@r0ad-tr1p]

16:39 behold MINI-SOR!!!

[@worldssmallestdestron7819]

can't wait to have this guy.

[@davidrose4900]

He's avalable in the UK as well, I got mine about a week ago, he's an awesome figure, I'm so glad I pre-ordered it :)

[@robtimuscron1126]

I actually thought Menasor would be smaller than the CW version. I'm pleasantly surprised he's the same size. And I love the fact that you can actually display Menasor without the 3 yet to be released team members. You definitely get more bang for your Commander class bucks than you did with Rodimus, but still a step down from that big beefy bad-ass Siege Jetfire.

[@aidenmb7932]

I'm so glad bbts got this in early compared to December like it said before 16:42 is not a waste of time, its a masterpeice

[@Benax218]

You are not alone on the goofy mode😂😂

[@leowatley]

WORD OF CAUTION: i got my motormaster last week, and, during the third or fourth time i transformed him into menasor, one of the gray tabs on the chestpiece (that was part of he trailer) that flip up to lock motormaster into place (the ones on either side of the head; you can see them in the above picture) snapped off. this was during normal use. the black pieces that the gray pieces are attached to the chestpiece with sheared off. as someone who refurbishes and fixes toys, i found this break to be unrepairable - attempting to glue it back together would cause the gray piece to be unable to move at all. the amount of plastic on the sheared-off black piece is so tiny, and the clearance between it and the gray place is basically non-existent. fortunately, hasbro is going to replace the broken part. unfortunately, they can't just send the chestpiece and i need to mail back the entire toy. every other time i've broken a figure (except the shoulder joint on king of the snipers - that one is just very poorly designed [the joint, not the whole figure]) has been my fault. this is the first time i feel like it was an endemic problem with the toy's design. and, as i said at the start, this was only the third or fourth time that i manipulated the pieces in question, i was using it as designed, and i did not in any way force it. overall, i love the figure. this has nothing to do with that. i just want people to be aware that this is a very real thing that could happen to anyone and that it is (unless you are unbelievably skilled and/or are a jedi) nearly impossible to fix without impacting functionality.

[@Culando]

Oh dude I love this. I need him.

[@caffeinedelusions]

Okay. It's happening. I'm doing it. I'm getting the box set. Swore I didn't need it because I had Combiner Wars, but I've finally got some money and it's my birthday coming up, so I'm committed to it.

[@AlexSeverinski]

I was happy with the Combiner Wars Menasor, so I wasn't looking to get the Legacy versions. I think I might be changing my mind.

[@pokeprime94]

I gave up on CW Menasor after attempting to use it for stop motion. He is absolutely impossible to stand in any kind of pose with the upgrade kit that makes him look normal

[@Pliskins024]

I skip CW wonky menasor..even with the upgrade kit i saw in the review hard pass..😂 Legacy menasor is a new ball game..A solid combine figure on it's own without upgrade kit..

[@linkplayer1464]

I hope this gets a 3rd party upscale to fit in with masterpiece figures. Would be pretty cool.

[@toystoryfan55]

I can't wait until all five stunticons are released!

[@fadzilhamid736]

I am truly huge fan of Motormaster, he was my most favorite Decepticon/Stunticon all of time 😊. I love battle platform too, such a amazing playset 🤩. Hopefully Motormaster not too expensive to buy 🙏😌.

[@dariusq8894]

Forget the other Stunticons, I'm going to get this guy to form Menasor all on his own. Kind of like Powermaster Prime / God Ginrai.

[@PedroNina]

I likethe fact That MM turns into a whole chest instead of a backpack, like some 3rd party ones, it gives him function in The combiner. Hasbro definitely improved in that aspect

[@TheScwall]

I managed to pick this guy up literally as they were stacking them on the shelves in Big W (I live in Australia) 😁 He (MotorMaster) is a little smaller than I would have thought, but he's a cool figure, and I'm keen to see the completed Menasor!

The trailer wheels of my copy give way too easily from the weight of it..any suggestion? But overall the ratchet join are SOLID!Any pose is possible for this figure i can vouch for tht!Possibly THE best combiner for mainline hands down..so much fun!But careful on the tolerance of the ratchets. Btw the CW legs yes still is wonky but if you have a kit from perfect effect -02 feet it should be a little ok.. if your feeling mix matching..all is gd.

So is there any way to incorporate the gun tower thing as a flight stand or... anything really, in combined mode, besides being a tower for the gun or hanging off his hips as an awkward tail or even more awkward robo-wang?

[@101Mant]

It's really weird to just leave a chunk of the trailer out.

[@jasonswitzer1748]

Yes… it can be used as a flight stand for Motormaster… per the sword into the side of the tower near the top and plug the hilt of the sword into motormaster’s flight stand port. Check out TMan’s video for a demonstration.

[@dialNforNinja]

@@jasonswitzer1748 Kinda eh on Motormaster alone, and no way will that work for Menasor. Hanging it off his back still seems like the only option there besides the gun turret.

[@raphaelsanluis9711]

Pretty cool .

[@grumpybean98]

my only nitpicks with this guy are some tight joint that felt scary to move when I first got him and the turret tower, the only function it has is as turret tower and trailer part. I wish that section were to incorporate into combine mode in some way, along with proper storage for the "sword" whenever you do decide to have menasor man the turret
