[@bluerazor7049]

WildRider: Ferrari 308 GTS Dead end: Porsche 928 GT Dragstrip: Tyrrell P34. Breakdown: Lamborghini Countach LP500. Motormaster: Kenworth K100.

[@MeilloLicthlaren]

Good iq

[@brunocarter2531]

dont know if anyone gives a damn but if you guys are stoned like me atm then you can watch pretty much all the new series on Instaflixxer. I've been watching with my gf for the last few months :)

[@paxtonzayd4293]

@Bruno Carter yup, have been using instaflixxer for since december myself :)

[@ldogin]

GTS? I think

[@pikachu0Z]

funny thing about Dragstrip is Megatron loathes him more than he does Starscream. Now that's saying something

[@Zargkhon]

I think I had this Toy when I was younger! I remember the yellow car and the Truck, aswell as the brown car. Damn that brings back memorys :) Thank you!

[@mbcraftgaming8471]

They should make a Platinum reissue 2 pack with Menasor and Supirion.

[@astrotrainreviews1355]

+MB Craft Gaming Yeah, think so too. They should!

[@jamarihicks6321]

new settlers

[@titanfreak2936]

Make a reissue with all opposing combiners Bruticus and Defensor Superion and Menasor Computron and Herbumaner

hello I am the 12 year old kid that likes old stuff and collecting stuff instead of new stuff

[@eightbit1975]

Nice review, and the reason I ordered one myself. I had this set as a kid and have a lot of fond memories of it. I would have purchased an official reissue had Takara/Hasbro released one, but they did not (yet). If they do in the future I will of course buy it and support them. The thing is that I am re-collecting G1 again and I want NEW original G1 figures. I refuse to buy some sloppy mess of a Menasor on ebay that has been used and abused for decades for a hundred or more dollars. I want a brand new copy and I want to be the one to apply the stickers. This is where the KO/reissue fits the bill perfectly for me.

[@bromodragone8405]

Dead End: If we sacrifice our Energon, we're doomed. Breakdown: And if we dont, we're doomed too. Dead End: Face it. We're doomed.

[@TANKTREAD]

Ah, "The Key to Vector Sigma Parts 1 & 2", two of my favorite episodes from Season 2.

[@tfdude1394]

So WR is a psychopath, BR is paranoid, DR is a sore winner, DE is emo, and MM is a brute. What a bunch.

[@ltranc]

And Menasor is an idiot

[@tfdude1394]

Oh yeah. I like to think OR (Offroad) as a klepto and BJ (Blackjack (poor initials)) as the one sane guy who keeps everyone from killing each other. Don't judge me.

[@justprime-yq1gi]

TFDUDE13 what is DR ??? just say the names

[@guyfireyboi1982]

DR is drag strip

[@justprime-yq1gi]

then it would be ds cause drag strip

[@TANKTREAD]

Wish someone would make them bigger and EXACTLY like their G1 cartoon counterparts. The vehicles are spot on, but the size, robots and Menasor are different. Still my favorite team though. Was so awe when I was a kid when five robots merged to form one. "The Key to Vector Sigma Parts 1 & 2" are still my favorite episodes.

[@TheShardFenix]

urgh...I remember having Menasor as a kid growing up. And while looking back I feel nostalgic about him, he never really struck me as a strong combiner. Maybe I have weird taste but I always though Bruticus, Computron, Piranacon, and Defensor were the best of g1. Regardless though it was still a great review. And I have looked at KO products and this soothed some of my fears. KO Defensor, HERE I COME!!

[@PhantomJedix2000]

If you didn't say that this is a knock off, I would have believed it was the original set, because of how good the quality is. Awesome review my friend as always. Gotta love their background stories though.

[@obotprime339]

red alert and breakdown-I can see it so well, it blinds me. xD

[@blueeyeddrago3540]

I just saw a car move in the box by itself.

[@bromodragone8405]

Really, who?

[@blueeyeddrago3540]

I forgot to be honest with you. No one has been sending replies to this comment but I saw one of the cars move.

[@jesta7295]

+Dakota Woloschuk I think it was drag strip

[@brownsugarv2935]

Daniel Wi, yeah, it's no coincidence. And it DEFINITELY didn't tip over in the box, because it was knocked over to the styrofoam and it mysteriously moves forward. I guess the toy came to life !

[@reptisaurusking8494]

Wildrider's a Ferrari 308 GTB, Breakdown's a Lamborghini Countach, Drag Strip's a Tyrrell P34 race car, Dead End's a Porsche 928 and Motormaster's a Kenworth K100 Aerodyne Sleeper Tractor Trailer

[@unoriginalname6604]

That was Dragstrip's gun that you threw away!

[@mixxur]

Even if you said you didn't encourage us to buy KOs... This is the reason why I got my KO Terrorcons.

[@TANKTREAD]

The Terrorcons are one of my favorite combiners, good purchase!

[@juliocisneros7770]

Dragstrip big gun and pistol are brown color, Breakdown big gun and his pistol are blue, Dead End big gun have twinks cannons with ++ at the end, and Dead End pistol is the most large of tinny pistols, finally the Wild Rider big gun and pistol is black with telescopic sight over cannon. About transformation of motormaster they legs are spread for more stability when can stand straight in robot mode. Five Stunticons and all his accesories and box art looks very nice no matters how many decades pass they looks greatful for every collectionist love them!

[@thedriftyisaac6008]

This is the best looking g1 combiner. By far the coolest. Even if he is the smallest

[@reikiv3]

I'm glad it looks like Motormaster and Optimus share a mold in combiner wars. It makes more sense.

[@vinceamaro1382]

"Dragstrip, Dead End you weaklings!, we are conquering the planet but you can't pull a sword on the road?!"

[@Noremorse79]

Good review to start with, nice bio's as well, pretty accurate, you made one mistake with the weapons though. I have the original G1 set + display ( bought in 1986) and the weapons you used for Dead End and Dragstrip should be the other way around, Meaning the red weaponset is actually for Dragstrip and the second black set for Dead End. Now you have 2 black sets. The smooth one is Dead End and the more "wild" one is for Wildrider. Also the episode you are refering to is "Key to Vector Sigma"

[@ShadesMP5]

Its not a knock off. Its a RE-ISSUE! A remake for the collector's market.

[@AniW2x4]

ShadesMP5 yup

[@Lonnehart]

Breakdown and Red Alert have a lot in common... especially with the paranoia and vehicle alt modes... And did Motor Master ever claim his title of "King of the Road"? And being Menasaur must give them all a terrible headache...

[@actofcawd209]

well Megatron did rob Motormaster the title by killing Optimus Prime in the movie....

[@M1A77]

You have Dragstrip and Deadends weapons switched. I only know this because I only have the original G1 Dragstrip.

[@TANKTREAD]

Also the "car cannons" as well.

[@RastaSaiyaman]

Your descriptions of the characters come straight from Transformers wiki but way fun. And with breakdown, in the cartoon he's Menasor's right leg, so imagine how paranoid he must be knowing that he has to work together with WILDRIDER holding the whole thing up. I can't imagine him being in a relaxed state.

[@avanderwende]

You have some of the weapons mixed up. The gun which you put in the hand of Wildrider actually belongs to Dead End. The purple cannon and gun which you gave to Dead End belong to Drag Strip. The black cannon which you put on Drag Strip belongs to Dead End.

[@Noremorse79]

Micromaster (and monstructor) is G2 not G1, same cartoons but seen through the cube, also was made to place the cartoons in the same continuum with the comics, hence new toys and lines ( like micromasters) came out follwed directly by the Japanese Headmasters after G1 Season 4.. Hasbro was meaning to do this but they saw no real profit in it. The Japanese did and later it was dubbed by several 3th company parties for the UK and USA.

[@Ojunix]

Amazing Review on the Stunticons & I just Love Dead End's Bio cause I feel so Bad for Him XD

[@Pyroshax]

I had dead end as a kid, and always wondered why he had that giant block coming out of him. Never knew he combined with other things.

[@bobbygeary7609]

I am the only 10 year old who gives a slag about G1. You just can't beat the classics. Nowadays, Transformers fall apart if you look at them funny.

[@guyfireyboi1982]

I was a fan of g1 when I was 7........ Get on my level lol

[@bobbygeary7609]

Lance Robson lol

[@Awesomeness10]

I'm ten and I care A TON about my G1s because I got then off of eBay

[@scottmacadam6599]

Haha I've got you beat I was the only ten year old who cares I'm 14 now

[@Awesomeness10]

Whatever I have a whole collection of which ones I wanted from ebay

[@thunderstudent]

He's supost to be the same size as Devastator and Bruticus in the show but the toys make him look like a miget combiner. Without the upgrade kids G1 Devastator dwarfs him and with them he just towers over the combiner. Someone needs to make a oversized version of him, maybe double sized to put him back up to scale with his fellow Deceptacon combiners. Anyway, just my opponion. Another very entertaining review.

[@PhantomDusclops92]

Always wanted it. Now i'm pondering about this version.

[@toyaddic29]

The purple "but" gun goes to dragstrip that's why it maybe was loose on deadend

[@decepticonmark]

I have the original 1983 Menasor/ Stunticons. They were always my favorite next to Devastator/ Constructicons.

[@jackson2531]

I apologize, but I think it was either 1985 or 1986 that the Stunticons were created.

[@decepticonmark]

@@jackson2531 Yea, you're right. The year says 1985 on them. It was my Insecticons I got mixed up with years that say 1983. Which I believe were also released around the same time as the Stunticons. Either way, time flies.

[@ReinaHW]

I would love to see all the G1 Combiners get a decent Classics/Universe/Generations remake, with combination. The Stunticons in particular are long overdue for a remake in full.

[@theeblurrprime3604]

when u say megs stole cars I just imagine a gta stile Megatron stealing cars

[@xmappergamer1002]

Yeah to bui,d an army of nephelibots

[@OU_Welcome]

If you want Optimus Prime to be proportionate with the G1 Stunticons, get the Reveal The Shield Legends Class version of him.

[@eddy19127]

the purpose for their base modes was that you could connect them to tryptocon or metroplex

[@illiniguy34]

In the vehicle modes, you gave Dead End Dragstrip's cannons and vice versa.

[@willieleefrancis8091]

I ordered this remake of the G1 Stunticons. They are of a good quality plastic, as you indicated. I only had Wildrider as a youngster, lol. Sometime in the nearer future, I will pick up the remake of the G1 Aerialbots/Superion! G1 forever!

[@6672rock]

I bought KO versions of the Insecticons, and I swear, I can't find a single difference between the KO packaging and the actual G1 packaging. And I analyzed everything down to the copyright information at the bottom of the back of the box. KO packaging is about exact as exact can get! As for the figures themselves, well, that's a totally different story. As for the Stunticons themselves, I would love to get my hands on an authentic G1 version, but settled recently for a Combiner Wars version, which isn't bad.

[@beowulf60412]

+6672rock I bout an anniversery version of them with blaster in toys r us

[@cliffthelightning]

Love this figures..... i know there not the most exiting robots , but there great desktop toys you just fiddle with these al the time... there dangerous , I have some minibots and loose combiner figs on my desk and when i have to do something important...( bills /work etc) i just sit all day fiddling with these figures

[@mbcraftgaming8471]

Please review Bruticus!

[@willieleefrancis8091]

check on Ebay, that is where I bought the G1 Menasor giftset from. That is where I intend to pick up the G1 Superion/Aerialbot set. I highly recommend you check around on Ebay.

[@13megaprime]

you do great reviews man... i dont know why people try to diss you. i like the lengthened informative kind of reviews not some 4 minute bullcrap. ;) keep up the good work man

[@galford17]

They should make Motormaster as what they did to Onslaught and Sliverbolt. An Ultra in the Universe line... He would be wicked...

[@dannytanner1315]

So this knockoff actually uses the Transformers name on the packaging? One of my fave episodes of the G1 cartoon is when Optimus and a few Autobots masqueraded as the Stunticons and even combined to Menasor thanks to Windcharger's magnetic abilities.

[@yordaman17]

Motormaster's "base mode" isn't actually all that lame since it can be connected to Metroplex, Metrotitan, or Trypticon to expand those fig's city modes. Thanks for the nice review, tho

[@SuperMyl3z]

I love that Prime's body is the same size as Motormaster's feet, even if they didn't animate it properly.

[@thelonewolf2929]

Wildrider is probably the best in terms of design, color and personality

[@jeremyfrakes2419]

The purple guns that were with dead-end actually go to dragstrip

[@aussieguy6908]

13:30 That gun belongs to Dragstrip. It's Deadend's gun that is missing.

[@flik688]

his small handguns don't fit because you are putting them on the wrong figures. the one you put in wildriders hand is dead ends gun and the gun you couldn't get to fit in dead ends hand is dragstrips gun.

[@dongdynamics]

After hearing dead end's bio he sounds like breakdown but instead of everything watching him he's scared of his own death

[@TANKTREAD]

The Stunticons just plain AWESOME.

[@prowlprime]

I bought this set. The first time I tried to put them together to form Menasor, Wild Rider's head snapped right off. I was barely putting any pressure on it, and it snapped clean off. The whole point of buying it was to form Menasor----which I now cannot do.

[@ltranc]

The prediction of Off-Road's coming

[@6672rock]

Dragstrip is interesting. I've never heard of a formula 1 car with 6 wheels before.

[@xmappergamer1002]

They changed the formula

[@bromodragone8405]

Nope. Menasor is not the smallest G1 Combiner. In America, that honor goes to Monstructor. In Japan, it's held collectively by Sixliner, Sixturbo, Sixbuilder, Sixtrain and Sixwing.

[@MrYib]

Dragstrip and Dead End (yellow and red) have each others' guns in car mode.

[@MrYib]

+Rickey Bonner He got the car mode guns mixed up.

[@FanaticFilmsINC]

Awesome, thanks for the review. I always wondered if this was as good as it looked in the pics.

[@malicekaiser]

Menasor is always been my favor decepticon combiner.... i hope any third party will do... like the TFC Hercules, thats a sexy one!!

[@miragexl007]

thanks. really thinking of getting this. I've always wanted the boxset to go with my Arialbot set...afraid of getting a KO anyway (at a higher price) so probably will just go with one that's states as being a KO....so appreciate this review.

[@donacello789]

Hey you literally just read the transformers wiki for Wildrider when reviewing him! The same for breakdown and the others!

[@nevarky]

@optibotimus Is the fades, I think a straightforward cut without the fades could have worked better, at least that is how I see it. Anyway, since you say it was getting too long, you probably didn't have a choice, ncie review none the less.

[@SunSwipePrime]

FYI: It looks like you mixed up DeadEnds and Dragstrips weapons. The Purple/grape colored weapons go with Dragstrip.

[@BuschWhackerReviews]

hmm not bad for a ko may have to pick him up

[@1221kris]

Hair spray for loose joints works well.

[@blastersteeljaw]

the differences are this: 1. okay look at the original box art and compare it to this. look at motormasters name and the art. on the original there is a space between the name and the art. whle on the ko there isnt. 2. look at the eyes on breakdown's decepticon symbol. notice how there is white within the eyes? that was never on the original breakdown. 3. motormaster also has two huge spots on the top of his head. they were not that big on the original

[@ronaldclayton3999]

Had motormaster as a kid but never got my hands on the others,the best and probably most expensive was the original shockwave in about 85 when they were still made of metal,I've seen that thing go for $3000 on eBay.Too bad I didn't keep up with it.

[@jeremygray462]

his feet and inlets r metal everything else is plastic. if u order him on Ebay from China in the box with everything that comes with him. except the checklist. he is still metal. it's an exact replica of the orginal g1 lights and sound still work as well

[@MightyPredaking]

Great review Paul, going to review my g1 Menasor tomorrow and wanted to hear your thoughts.

[@TransformersFan5000Transfomers]

your motto should be no.1 youtube world reviewer.

[@havocmaverick]

I still have my menasor from when I was a kid. I might have lost some of the guns and accessories.

[@phanthak]

love the funny stuff you add to your review, "ooOO look at me i'm driving around" lol. i like the vehicle mods pretty cool, it sucks that he is so small when combined :( but anyways good review :D

[@jackytran7818]

I like G1 dragstrip

[@garrettl.6681]

my favorite thing in the entire video was the roller wannabe

[@Lamborghini123100]

Megatron stole all the German, Italian and American cars to help his case

[@adrianmontelongo9707]

Stunticons is my favorite decepticons combine.

[@pantlessninja4696]

Wow, I feel you deadend, I feel you.

[@bennylaser]

13:31 : that is Dragstrip's pistol, not Deadend's.

[@natebarger7482]

A lot of the true g1 figures are completely worn out from years of hard play. These are in great mint condition for knockoffs.

[@flik688]

also noremorse79, micromasters and monstructor ARE g1. g1 goes to 1990.

[@kibohiskeyblade7890]

Dead End: the decepticon emo. 😂😂😂

[@flynn3331]

+Marquis Banks haha. 😐

[@amess3921]

No because Dead End has a modicum of dignity XD

[@nycteris78]

I have the original G1 Drag Strip and it came with Deadend´s rear weapon. Meaby that's wy it's loose. Sorry for my english, I'm from Argentina. Nice review

[@dtasca716]

hey I just orderd the ko defensor with protectobots its a great set

[@hotsyruhm]

I can honestly say that I purchased this. I didn't like it that much at all. I mean its nice to get all the weapons for the Stunticons. I mean you could possibly use the parts to complete a Stunticon set that you may have or might purchase in the future. I am not knocking your review at all. Its a great review. If you are totally against KO's then you will find everything not right with this set. I am borderline on it. The box is very nice though. Love the artwork. Maybe I had a bad set LOL?

[@shinobitreecko8442]

Dead End is the definition of people these days with the whole Nibiru/Planet Nine/Binary Star/World Ending Heavenly Body fear on the internet.

[@6672rock]

Do the rub symbols deteriorate over time? I have a bunch of G1 figures, and no matter how much I rub the symbol, the Decepticon or Autobot symbol barely appears if at all.

[@angellomeli8040]

I wish motormaster and the rest of the stuntacons (including other combiners) were normal size , example: motormaster I wish he had an identical transformation and look (exept trailer and color sceems) like ultra magnus, also the cab (truck) splits in half

[@landmind666]

its amazing that u got all the stunticons, every time i see a ko set it has two technobots in sted of all the stunticons. then again if you got the ko terrorcons you got the other technobot limbs. but i have yet to see the techno leader with the missing cons. where did u find these guys they would go great with my ko protectobots and constructicons

[@TheCaptainSquiggles]

I'm wondering, how does the plastic feel? Like...that may be an odd question. But does it feel cheap? Or is it almost or even normal quality? Its a weird pet peeve I guess but when a toy feels cheap, even when it doesn't look it, it bothers me. And I really want this guy

[@shannoncurry107]

I love breakdown in tf prime

[@TransGear299]

I just bought a ko superion that said it was a reissue but I knew it wasn't hopefully it will be like the original

[@afireinsidebrad]

i made these guys in forza 3, well except motormaster of course, but they're pretty good if u ask me, i just need to make wildrider gray not black

[@andreoa2]

the purple weapons are for dragstrip and not for deadend

[@OptimusPhillip]

In truck mode he's smaller than the other Stunticons if you only look at the main truck part

[@hotsyruhm]

@TheShardFenix Hey there to comment on your comment I will tell you this. The Defensor KO set is actually pretty good. They are all very nicely done for something that is a KO. Now with that being said. I would highly recommend it if you really want it. Menasor didn't really thrill me too much. It was quite disappointing. That is why I sold mine. Get Defensor!!! Now in regards to Menasor Ill say its might be good for parts. The box is pretty nice though.

[@TheVarietyMix]

Awesome review man!!! I totally agee, this KO set isn't bad at all. It's almost identical to the actual G1 set. A nice buy for sure if you don't want spent a hell of allot of cash! Ty for doing this review!

[@mbcraftgaming8471]

Optibtimus did Takara make a reissue of Menasor?

[@TheDemonicfunny]

menasor was my favorite combiner in g1
