This Megatron is way better than I expected. I've been waiting to see what Takara brought to the table before I trade up Apollyon. I still prefer the aesthetics of Despotron so I will go with him, however I can appreciate how purists can love this figure as the definitive cartoon Megatron. Solid unit, great review as always.

Now that you’ve mentioned it (or rather I’ve read your comment) I imagine that they thought of this, how could they miss it? I would think it was a great idea, ‘Megatron P 38. Maybe they felt it would be confusing or infringing on something like copyright or rules of using a real name of a gun. No idea why, but I would bet they spotted that and could’ve easily rejigged the releases but chose not to. It would’ve been worth doing for fans if it was possible.

Interesting watching this 3 years later. The genius engineering and presence for MP Megatron, is what got me into collecring MPs last year. I expected a much more overwhelmingly positive review. I think he is as perfect as possible for a transforming figure. In 2020 all other MP megs are pretty much forgotten.

What sells me on MP36 is the accessories. What turns me off is the easy paint chipping, the visible head in gun mode and the insane amount of visible folds/hinges. I can deal with the Chigurh style arms, but not at a +$200 price point on a figure that some claim to be the holy grail of Megatrons. To me, they tried to reinvent the wheel. If it was prices at $140, I'd probably buy it. And as for price, try buying it anything in $CDN. Just add 30% and triple the shipping costs. Anyways, great review. Keep up the great work.

Uhg man I really REALLY want him, I got the money for him, I’ve had the money for a long while but just the price is a big sting. Especially with that nightmare of a transformation. Most if not all reviews always boil down to a “yeah no there’s no way I’m going to bother transforming him and just have him at a robot mode” Cause well...heck I’d do the same. Not much of a fan of the orange safety tips, can’t seem to find many online that don’t have them. So that’s kinda of a downer for me. Came across your reviews after looking into the BW Megatron MP I pre ordered. I gotta say I love how honest you are, you don’t sugar coat it, especially when it comes to the prices.

Great, balanced review as always Mr S. I think you're spot on with your comparisons to the 3P offerings, I think there's now a Megatron to suit everyone's tastes, but no one figure to suit all tastes. Personally Apollyon still commands my MP Decepticons as he has the best look for the other figures on the shelf, for the same reason Quakewave still stands next to him over the official figure. That said, this effort from TT is solid, and a million miles away from the nightmare vision that was MP5.

Fantastic review as always SKULL BROTHER!!! I was waiting for your review before I pulled the trigger on this piece. To me he is the best looking most toon accurate Bucket Head on the market which is what I want. As for your doing the transformations I think you do a phenomenal job and I love it. I suck at complex transformations and have actually not purchased a figure I wanted because I knew I wouldn't be able to do it. So watching you do it in your review allows me to buy the figure and then follow you step by step. Personally because of the risk of damage and the so so gun mode I think I'll buy this and leave it in bot mode simply for display. I love that I can give him the damaged look and can take some awesome pics of him fighting Prime. As always thanks for all the hard work and dedication you put into your reviews and don't ever change bro. BTW there should definitely be outward ratchets A stance be damed LOL...

To enjoy the silencer, just wrap a single layer of masking tape around the back of the barrel tip. Comes off easy, doesn't strip paint, and protects it just fine. And the gun looks WAY better all gussied up. Also in alt mode - the hammer in the back isn't just for looks, when pushed up is secures the parts a bit better. Anyway for a $200 + toy there should be zero scuffs when handled right. Minor or otherwise. At this price and with that trouble, they're really inviting guilt-free KO embrace.

It's been awhile since I opened an MP figure and was blown away. In hand it looks and feels amazing. Very solid figure. It is the best G1 cartoon accurate Meg to date. The articulation is outstanding and the poses you can pull off are very satisfying. I would recommend removing the face for transformation. I heard only the standard face that came on the figure should be used for transfermation not the others anyway. They could have included a similar piece to the chest plate to cover and smooth out the back but I'm sure a 3rd party will come up with something. We have been paying around 200 for mutiple MP-11 seeker molds for a long time now so I don't see why this wouldn't be around the same price point with all these accessaries. My only gripe is mine did come with minor paint chipping out of the box on some of the corner sections inside the chest area after further inspection. That said I couldn't be happier with this guy. Appolyon can finally be replaced. Solid review Sir !

Another suggestion for the super duper careful people is that they just completely remove the face and remove the chest before transforming it into a gun. I'm 80 comments late so I'm pretty sure somebody said that but if I got to go through it, you got to go through it. Congrats on not breaking it. This is the best toy in the world to me right now.

The most anticipated review from Bobby in 2017, I like the figure very much, but it is not worth 230 dollars, no chance in hell, I would rather hold on to my Apollyon and see if a KO version of this figure will be released eventually, or maybe who knows a re release will be cheaper in the near future, but I am not holding my breath.

Excellent work, man!! I had to look at this after not noticing that in other reviews about the flight stand. (I wasn't aware of that feature) Admittedly, I got one of the many KOs of this ("Emperor of Destruction" by Infinite Transformation). And given how insane the prices have gotten, I may be in the hunt for the G1 toy deco decadence that is MP36+; 212 and change at BBTS seems legit normal compared to the likes of 250 for the MP44 cab mold (as in MP49 Black Convoy), 300+ for MP43 Beast Wars Megatron, or even 450 for the full MP44. Besides...there were add-on kits that had the G1 toy style face & chest that I missed the bus on, and while that'd probably still be cheaper than a whole MP36+, good luck finding that stuff nowadays... I have to wonder *WHY* the engineering has to be so overly complex for the sake of show accuracy; Starsaber was quite show accurate to Transformers Victory - so much so that the folks at Reprolabels/Toyhax did a set to make MP24 look like the G1 toy - yet his design & transformation are _VERY_ simplistic, like CHUG simplistic, maybe even simpler than that. 🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️

I might be in the minority here but I think this thing encompasses the character Megatron to perfection. It looks so bad ass on a shelf and I think people forget how difficult it is to design something that's meant to go in the palm of your hand to turn into a "giant" robot. Let's be honest here. If you are paying 200 plus for a figure you are not buying it to "play" with. If you get chips then guess what folks. Add battle damaged face and chest and embrace that sh*t.

SILVER SHAMROCK but we return 15$ pizzas with the wrong toppings. Don't get me wrong. I'm a fan of this piece but the paint shouldn't be an issue

excellent review as always. I got my copy and do see some minor paint scuffs from it. I handle my toys a lot and I'm sure it'll only get worse, but honestly that's a price worth paying for me and I'm hoping that takara doesn't shy away from painting the whole damn thing like they've been doing with this and the inferno mold, I'm accustomed to it now and expect it be the norm :)

I haven't transformed him yet, but I will. good advice about using the damaged chest and face, even if that is how you wanna display, it almost makes sense to have some chips there. maybe they will blend or be camaflauged. I had a paint scuff right out the box close to the first one you showed, on the shoulder.

Mine arrives tomorrow... I figured if this and a few other reviews all went pretty poorly... I'd just put him on eBay. But now I know I'm definitely keeping him. This is Megatron, and so I'm fairly sure we'll see a Hasbro release, and my hope is that maybe Hasbro can do something about the paint issues. This guy looks amazing in videos/pictures, and from what I've consistently heard, even better in person. If that's true, I'd be happy to buy a 2nd one from Hasbro if they can improve the paint situation. Maybe with a special finish? I don't know, I'm not an expert on this stuff. I'm leaning toward not transforming this guy, at least for now. On a semi-related note, I won't even transform Sovereign (Sovereign ms only transforming toy that I won't transform). I think there's far less risk there, but I just love him so much, that I can't stand the idea of possibly scuffing him. I'd also buy a 2nd sovereign with a more cartoon accurate blue. :p

Another brilliant review that can be relied on, thanks! Rarely add Transformers to my personal toy collection these days, but I was hoping this Megs would be a must buy as I've yet to own a G1 Megatron. Looks like a nice overall package, but I'm finding it harder and harder to justify the price on these high-end Transformers when there's so much other cool stuff out there XD

You do have to take the Arms, Legs, & Shoulders completely apart, BUT its worth it..IT replaces Everything Takara should have done to begin with. Can't recommend it enough!!!.

another amazing review Mr Skullface. I think you sold me on him, just not sure when I'll get him. I knew this was going to be a long video due to your way of reviewing, if it would've been a short video than I knew their would've been a lot left out. As far as the electronics go, have you ever thought about doing a one & done shoot? As in just showing off the electronic feature ONLY during the review than permanently removing the batteries.

Awesome review as always. I really like the look of this guy I think Takara nailed him and I rarely have any issues about his flaws. The only issue I have is with the retailer shipping this guy to me at the end of the month... also about the color I totally agree grey looks better than the chrome. I've seen somebody custom theirs and I just thought to myself that he looks like he's getting glammed up for a night on the town.. (but each to their own I guess) looking forward to seeing your next video

The thing that throws me for a loop when it comes to esthetics with this figure is the fact that he basically has a fake chest. I understand that sometimes happens with the carbots, but there are some transformations you just don't mess with. Optimus' chest should always be the actual front window of the truck, Soundwave's chest should always be the actual cassette tray and Megatron's chest should always be the solid centre part of the gun. This chest looks like someone nailed a plank to a junkyard. For the life of me i don't understand why they chose to do it this way.

Thanks for the review! Overall I'm happy with mine; it's a very expressive figure and I'm blown away by all the dynamic poses he can do, especially with the flight stand. But one thing that is a huge bummer to me is that they did not engineer in a tab on his arm to fit MP Laserbeak. Am I the only one bummed by this oversight?
