Legacy Deluxe SHARD: EmGo's Transformers Reviews N' Stuff

[@jasonparis5635]

Looks like Springer hit Rock bottom

[@cwatt05]

Not rock bottom, just got really hot and melted

[@fabianrocha9924]

He looks a bit stoned

[@THANATOS-PRIME]

Had better things to do that night than die like getting his rocks off…or I guess on in this case?

[@HunterChau]

Haha

[@180logicproject4]

Booo. But the pun is corny. I guess you can say I’ve got an ear for it. 😂😂😂

[@khyron42prime40]

I swear they genuinely just tried to push the absolute limits of the most ridiculous vehicles they could make out of rocks, and I'm 500% here for it

[@hyperdrayxyt6109]

I am so glad that through the 9 plus years I’ve been watching emgo has never said he would leave KZbin, keep up the great content my friend

[@emgo316]

they're trying to push me out of here, but not without a fight.

[@MPMeterman]

@@fernandoflores3161- YT has really screwed their creators by changing the algorithm in a way that has lowered views and cut ad revenue.

[@gabrielchee8470]

​@@MPMetermanhow?

[@MPMeterman]

@@gabrielchee8470 - how? I have no idea how the algorithm works. I know that other KZbinrs have commented that their views are way down. Less views = less ad revenue.

[@lukeallan6527]

Emgo, you're my go to man for transformations and honest reviews of figures I've bought or intend to buy. I've watched you from day one on a daily basis. 'Never give up, never surrender'

[@trashmammal9430]

I'm still convinced she was meant to be some kind of Waspinator. just LOOK AT HER

[@MrRcn23]

The Blackout mention made me think of Shard as Blackout coming back to life thousands of years later, covered in sediment from spending so long at the bottom of the sea.

[@davewire87]

If they remolded the rocky bits but kept the colors, he’d be a pretty awesome Cybertron mode Waspinator. You can even rip him apart to simulate him getting blown up.

[@jamesestrella5911]

Although other characters in Beast Wars get dismantled, Waspinator outdoes them in sheer frequency.

[@serPomiz]

if generation selects was still around, that would have been a likelly remold

[@TFmotion07]

@@serPomizGeneration selects is still around. It’s just not that prominent anymore

[@serPomiz]

@@TFmotion07they really started hanging themselves with exclusives, have they not?

[@gabrielchee8470]

"And we've got a glimmora lead!"

[@mctankies]

God bless TFWiki and their captions.

[@dialNforNinja]

Dang, Rockspinator is looking pretty awesome

[@medafan53]

Good to know that I'm not the only one who got Waspinator vibes from him.

[@jamesestrella5911]

Not just the color, but the head sculpt as well

[@chancebarker8129]

What I like about these Infernac’s is that since they don’t have any origin story, you could technically come up with one yourself.

[@medafan53]

She kinda looks like she used to turn into a meteor, and modified her alt mode to fly within the atmosphere. Edit: Hasbro Plus Stream revealed Shard is female.

[@fabiomura08]

That's such a cool take

[@ryvyl]

This thing has a lot going on. Insectoid head, dragonfly styled alt mode, and a lot of re-mold potential.

[@SwiftpawWolffox]

That's a really killer headsculpt. In copter mode the spiny angle molding of the rock/crystal acts almost like speed lines, give a forward movement impression.

[@doomslayerprime9749]

I'd love them to retool this as Vortex because Shard definitely gives me that vibe especially the Helicopter mode

[@ZedMazaus480]

I wouldn't be suprised if that was the plan.

[@jasonparis5635]

I'm sure that if I'm seeing this but shard's helicopter mode almost looks like a fish with rotor blades

[@geekimus1]

Aside from the rocks, shard reminds me of energon bulkhead

[@usedtissuepaper42]

Honestly this could probably be retooled into a Legacy Waspinator

[@doomslayerprime9749]

You referring to Beast Wars or Animated? To be fair they both are known for Falling apart

[@TheServantSlayer7]

​@@doomslayerprime9749 He's talking about a pre beast wars Waspinator.

[@doomslayerprime9749]

@@TheServantSlayer7 oh I get it like that BotCon Short Film Search For The Golden Disk where everyone still had Vehicles forms that'd be a great idea especially since most of those figures were exclusive and no doubt pretty damn hard to find now adays at an affordable price plus it would be a good way to creating new Cybertronian Vehicle designs for characters who had or not had ones like Blackarachnia, Silverbolt, Rampage, QuickStrike exc.

[@mctankies]

Baja Blast Rock Helicopter

[@thebaltolinx5722]

“Get to the crystal chopper”

[@grimsyTF]

Let’s go I’ve been waiting for this character

[@DatHarlequinOni]

Based on that transformation all I can think of is a heavy retool of this into Armada Cyclonus

[@metal-fletch6186]

That's a nice transformation. Hopefully we see some more mileage of this mold. I would love to see an Airachnid to go with the other Legacy Prime figures.

[@Dekaar]

while some say springer, I'm getting a major "Waspinator from a different universe"- vibe from him

[@philrosadohtd4life147]

I know someone else said it but it does look like Springer in like a rocky formation. Same colors and is also a chopper. Cool line of Rockformers

[@porakiyadraekojin3390]

First time I've been this early to an emgo video! Also, this gonna be a fun one Edit: having watched the vid now, I can say that I definitely dig this fella. What I like most is that the transparent green plastic looks like emerald, and it as quite a few things it can do. The downsodes, most of which are nitpicks: the blades simply aren't long enough for my tastes (along with him not being able to hold them as proper swords), they could have done more with the helicopter tail (like make it another weapon that interacts with all the other weapons), and nothing is done with the main body that I can tell (transforming it into a sort of shield would be perfect)

[@Widow-Maker2k23]

Didn’t know by looking at it that Shard is fembot but definitely a very cool figure and I just got it with Dreadwing for 30$ both total

[@PhoenixFyre]

So far the only one of the rock heads I want 😂

[@Byrdstar6423-un3me]

I wanna see this retooled as a cybertronian Waspinator

[@maximumgaming6589]

Wow, you know Habro's distrubution is whack when Emgo gets a figure before the official announcement.

[@knexxpert]

I'm not sure of the actual lore Hasbro is going for with these guys, (I know they're inspired from the Rock Lord toys) but my personal head canon is they are cybertronions who landed on Infernac and the slowly got covered in the molten rocks which in time led to how they look now.

[@stephennuciolo4368]

Looks a little rocky but it looks like a little bit of a seaweed look to me.

[@landonmcblair]

Kinda made me think of Chaos from that one episode of G1 season 3

[@galaxycamerata]

Apparently the death crystals were a direct inspiration for her color palette.

[@shaunhandley3050]

Shard is your latest fembot

[@emgo316]

indeed

[@texhawkins5103]

This shard is a Russian type hind chopper influence design with a bit of a bulkyness of a Blackhawk

[@PowerGem_257]

He has freaking monster hunter bow!

[@JamesMosesJr-y8h]

He looks good and deadly

[@Alex876]

*she

[@jackievids5643]

00:00 I was reminded of that one nigahiga skit where he said a Transformer’s fart would probably sound like dubstep, but then Optimus sharted (or Sharded, eh?) and made trap music.

[@Serenity_Dee]

This is the first of the Infernac Universe bots that's tempting me.

[@MrSsjgoku72000]

Don't let him Near Superman.....

[@thenuclearsandwich]

I can almost see a Deathcobra out of that mold if you remove all the rocky aesthetics.

[@Kirby0189]

It's been a while since Seaspray's gurgly voice showed up!

[@vutava8292]

I really like these Infernac guys. Little disappointed at the lack of faction symbols, though. C'mon Hasbro, this was the perfect opportunity to introduce a new insignia!

[@emc246]

Is the post on the back of the helicopter mode 5mm? I assume you could use that for more "armorizing" if it is.

[@yarnjplays2028]

Pay NO attention to the bot behind the green rock

[@TheKrenk999]

A bit annoyed that the torso and waist play no part in the armorizer play-ability, but damn, that's a clean helicopter transformation for such a small transformer, and the robot mode has a ton of poseability. Definitely a collection worth getting, although my God-Children are gonna give me ulcers when they keep nearly losing parts for these damn things!

[@AlphonsoFrett-xz6pi]

Thanks for sharing the excellent video

[@Mclarensenna2008]

I just ordered him and he comes in a week. Im so excited for him. I already have magneous, and i hope ill find bouldercrash somewhere because i love the designs of these rock themed guys

[@theprimo100]

And it turns out Jazz's favourite music is Lithonian Throat Singing.

[@savingstumps]

what, i like sea spray. the toy had a special place in my heart when i was little.

[@serPomiz]

honestly I love the tail. those aren't the usual transformers also I swear, with some remolding and some more intelligent accessorizing, armada cyclonus could come out of that?

[@NemesisPrimeWOOO]

Looks like waspinator scanned a helicopter and ditched one mohawk and thought being covered in crystals would be funny

[@lsv4898]

The designer said that shard is a fembot haha

[@emgo316]

Correct. That info just wasn’t available at the time I shot this review.

[@lsv4898]

@@emgo316 no worries. Excellent review as always :)

[@ceruleanblu3184]

His legs look like McDonald’s fries, if McDonald’s fries were green.

[@benjaminwiseman6567]

Was the "X-Men vibe" in reference to Shatterstar? If so, well done!

[@dantron]

The skid is gold!!

[@joshj6815]

He's packed in robot mode. YAY!

[@gabrielchee8470]

I'm here to report that according to designer intent shards canon pronouns are she/her

[@JohnWatsonPuppetChannel]

They should come up with a sea vehicle to round out the group.

[@galaxycamerata]

Imagine a Submarine that looked like it was made of undersea mineral deposits and dead coral.

[@SuperLoconnor]

with some minor tweaking and a bit of purple, You could get a decent heli Waspinator out of this

[@Bigtonesmallz]

New age Rock Lords, cool

[@frost-fire7774]

I have no idea where this figure is from, but with the colors and that cool looking mold I want it!

[@anubisdoji1984]

Absolutely looking forward to getting this guy

[@ken9720]

I'm hoping that someone will make a upgrade kit with handles that the swords can plug into, So with some retooling this guy could be made into Sharkbyte.

[@Asher_Tye]

Shard doing his Kup impression.

[@gabrielchee8470]

Did you use future sight? They confirmed that this bots made of those crystals from Chaos

[@Asher_Tye]

@@gabrielchee8470 oh no, I was just referring to his limbs popping off like toy Kup and movie Kup

[@FigDrift]

Interesting to see some copies have blue and some dont

[@Rey-Rey2077]

Tbh they look cool hopefully they combine

[@zachbundy7026]

Four swords? I think we all know what Zelda game is this bot's favorite.

[@gingervikingjesus2351]

@7:07 Are these guys supposed to be call-backs to the Rock-Lords??🤔

[@jlashombjr]

He could have been a new transmetal character. His alt mode looks very much like a shark/fish/dolphin that has a helicopter mode.

[@MikuJess]

10:44 But not sea, of course, a sea Infernacian would sink like a... stone. 8D

[@arkron81]

Honestly, if I buy this toy, I'll likely shave off the tabs on the sides of the propeller blades' pegs. There's no reason for them to be there in the first place, from what I gather, so it's no loss if they're removed.

[@marcbrunson6986]

Springer ha ha. I like how much they are giving him the glass shard look. Like I said before, the geology in me will get these Infernac figures. I saw a picture of Legacy Gears and I really like his design. I might actually get him for this version. I never had the G1 and never really cared for that one. Also, Blue Thunder. More Junkions and Infernac(ians)? ha ha

[@imperialseiryu6989]

So this is basically Tendril from inhumanoid but as a crystal creature instead of a plant.

[@ZedMazaus480]

Wait wait wait! It's out already?! I never even saw Hasbro put up the pre orders for wave 2, let alone them announce the pre orders. This is going to make this a nightmare to get my hand on these now. Especially since my local Walmart hasn't even put out any wave1 united product on the shelves yet. Heck! They just started filtering in evolution wave 3 figures into the mix. Hasbro you failed me for the last time. INTO THE CARBONITE PIT WITH YOU!!!

[@Spedatr0n]

Such a good lookin fig

[@scalyvaporeon2232]

He looks like a tree with propellers XD Or he is covered in Boomy's Rock candy.

[@Kefkaownsall]

Wish that tail was removable. Might cut the tabs off the rotors so Ican quad wield swords

[@UnderlordZ]

Hasbro really wants to reboot the freaking Rock Lords, don't they?

[@starscream7755]

I'm surprised no bloosh looks like they would fit the intakes

[@JustIceWasTaken]

He looks a lot like g1 rotorstorm, I hope they are work him into either him or really just any non-rock character

[@JustIceWasTaken]

Machine wars sandstorm too acctually

[@irishlucksmith5163]

Interesting figure, wish he could use the swords. Btw have u seen the cover of the touch done by Lords of the Trident? Highly recommend 😁

[@THANATOS-PRIME]

These guys look really cool and I can’t wait to get them. Is there any lore behind them? I can’t tell if they’re supposed to be heroes or villains?

[@mb-15navalcommander61]

Where in the world did you get this guy so early!? :0

[@slamdance7683]

Hes been seen on store shelves already, so he probably just bought it legally

[@texhawkins5103]

We need a dragon fly transformers character...but cool figure this is

[@CanoliDealer]

It's probably gonna be impossible to get these online since people buy like 8 at a time but I really hope I can get this dude at some point. Literally just now getting my Animated voyager Prime

[@CanoliDealer]

Plus my stores still have SS Rhinox, so I'll probably be able to pick something up in 2034

[@robertredford3371]

I am very disappointed that they used clear plastic for the portion of the chest that becomes the cockpit; the joint that makes it transformable has the pins that fit into this very material, which is so inflexible and prone to breakage over time. A pity, since I find this robot original and well designed

[@bigboy4006]

Not to be picky, but the Transformers Wiki refers to Shard as a ‘she/her’. Not that I’m complaining - Em’s videos are always top quality! His channel is my preferred source for Transformers collectible reviews.

[@nameforcomments4092]

I can’t help but be bothered by the lack of any sort of rear rotor or equivalent (and the fins are not an equivalent). It’s a fundamental part of a helicopter, and they just didn’t do it. Making it out of rock: weird but okay. No way to keep it from spinning like a top in the air: I can’t deal.
