Video Review: Fans Hobby MB-06 POWER BASER

[@ArionRDAW]

For those interested in measurements, here is what Swerve's World review noted (his videos are in Cantonese): vehicle mode length from cab to trailer - 410mm (16 inches), height in Powermaster Optimus Prime mode from toe to top of shoulder cannons turned up: 315mm (12 inches), combined weight is 1.138 kg (2.5 lbs).

[@DisgruntledPigumon]

Thanks for the review. You solved one of my biggest complaints, which is the way the tires stick out in PM mode. Now I see they slide way into the legs and it looks much better.

[@SuperAp0calypse]

Thanks for showing the sliding leg locking mechanism. I had some worries about that part of the transformation, but I'm glad that it wont be an issue. None of the other reviews show the buttons on the legs.

[@kingkakig]

Fans Hobby seems more impressive to me than the other Powermaster Primes released. I prefer these shoulder weapons.

[@youcantalwaysgetwhatyouwan8419]

kingkakig it’s all down to personal taste. I found Maketoys thunder Erabus to be infinitely more enjoyable.

[@Methusalen]

I love the look of this guy! Hope to be able to add him to my shelves some day!

[@darkrenagadef50]

Can't wait to see how Fans Hobby does their version of God Bomber, I remember seeing a teaser image at TFcon of him plus the combined form of God Ginrai.

[@Scerttle]

Man, I love this kind of Gears of War look on this guy. Makes him look like a big bruiser with a CHUNK of mass.

[@dpan2447]

Got a reissue at tfcon 2022 this past weekend and while Iove it overall I'm still not used to third party qc and I'm already seeing some stress marks on the tabs his shoulders plug into in normal robot mode. Any tips or tricks to avoid or reinforce certain things?

[@anthonythomas4917]

I was wondering if you could do a video putting the combined God Armor and Power Baser back into their vehicle modes? Thank you!

[@_V.Va_]

Pretty sure there are videos for that already.

[@BlackDragon8624]

I was on the fence because I had the Powermaster Prime as a kid, but never watched the episodes with him. Now, I think I am going to have to get this just because it looks so good.

[@lakitudude7577]

Daniel McClung he wasn't in any episodes.

[@adventuremaker2130]

LakituDude unless you count Super God Masterforce

[@BFBeast666]

The proportions in vehicle mode are weird, especially on the trailer. That aside, this figure wins almost on size alone. I thought the base bot was about Voyager-sized. My jaw dropped hard when peaugh pulled out MP10. How much is this guy? I might look into getting one.

[@thormalakowsky]

He's only $210 (main reason I own zero 3rd party figures)

[@BFBeast666]

Thor Malakowsky Welp. Even with my wife at her most lenient, that's a no go. :)

[@gageloftus9748]

Just picked one up on eBay for $189

[@OrinThomas]

The tolerances are quite bad, so you've saved yourself a headache in not picking this up

[@kingkakig]

I was hoping that the 3rd parties would manage to do away with the fake truck-front/chest. One thing unique about the G1 was the powermaster gimmick which unlocked the transformation, which was explained as well in the Marvel’s Transformers #42 issue.

[@razingst0rm]

Thanks, I've been looking forward to this.

[@THISISSPARTA827]

9:56-10:00, I couldn't see the process by which the head passed between the arms, if you'd just elevated the tripod beforehand, that would've saved buyers a lot of guesswork. I won't buy him any time soon, but I was just pointing out a way to improve your cinematography.

[@beeter3588]

Is it me or is this like a masterpiece ginrai

[@adnanalam8389]

is the sword part of the figure?

[@phillipnguyen4629]

Think someone will make red eyes to be like powermaster prime in the comics?

[@lordscreamer2823]

Sooo, I'd say their Godbomber will be around... Uhh... $750? A definite purchase for sure.

[@Qc4073]

I want this bad now but I do t see how you put autobot insignias on his arms and look right.

[@QuantumSurge64]

This made me wish Takara did Ginrai instead of Star Saber as well as Hasbro saving Powermaster Prime for POTP (then I would have bought that instead of either Leader Prime we got in Titans Return or Power of the Primes).

[@barbatos1275]

star saber was a fan vote masterpiece figure

[@spinyjustspiny3289]

And it would probably have been way simpler to put together compared to this thing and Thunder Manus.

[@DisgruntledPigumon]

Gotta disagree, it would’ve so bad if Takara did it. So much happier that real fans made this for ADULTS. So it’s a little complex, and that complexity makes for better final forms.

[@SeekerofOblivion]

Bro, u know where I can find the PP-24 Generation Nemesis Prime Toy for around $100. I checked all them websites and they aren't in stock. How long will they take to get in stock anyone know or are they out??? Please help

[@peaugh]

Hmm, ebay may be your best bet for that, or in the sales threads on bulletin boards. I'm not aware of anyplace that has it in stock.

[@baratacom]

It gets MASSIVE, but to be honest I'm kinda underwhelmed by how tall he got with the armor? I dunno, expected him to be a head or so taller.

[@VGMStudios33]

Reminds me of fatimus prime. Looks good.

[@shadowscribe]

I always preferred to say weapon emplacement instead of 'base' mode. Was G1 Powermaster Prime smaller than the original? If not Fanshobby maybe the first in a while to respect their toyline's scale when they do a powermaster.

[@DMSL2007]

Great review, the hollow abdomen of the base figure is inexcusable IMO.

[@thegenie69]

Who is the best? Fan hobby mb 06 ? Make toys mtcd o3 or takara god ginrai Please?

[@uainjansun]

All

[@Primex007]

I hope that Power Baser will get a god-bomber unit

[@Alex876]

hes awesome and lets just call it a battle mode

[@AdvancePlays]

I do quite like this guy but he has one beer but when altogether!

[@TitanWave1]

🏆🔥

[@Piledriver2006]

Is anyone else creeped out at the fact that Optimus has two chests?

[@jjuan4382]

I prefer THUNDAH ERIBAHS!!

[@Shanali-ry1nl]

But he's too small! Now granted, Maketoys Thunder Erebus/Manus Scales perfectly with the Titans Return voyager Optimus Prime and Octone (Octane) figures in vehicle mode, but Maketoys should have designed it better so that it can scale better in both vehicle and robot mode.

[@Enigma2K99]

*BEEF!!!* Must... have.. this...

[@omegamaximus1727]

The trailer is too small for this toy.

[@jayyip9220]

I couldn't find anything call beauty in this figure. Just another logo-alike "thing"...

[@stanletters]

Mm, I want one *T H I C C B O I* pleasd

[@nolanbaker2360]

Seth Tan sounds yummy

[@Delfromteamrad]

Boi he *T H I C C*

[@cruizerdave]

That base mode is terrible.

[@justinmohan7103]

Are you planning to display him in base mode

[@cruizerdave]

Maybe. Well, actually no. Because it's so bad I'm not buying him.

[@muisverriet]

As base modes tend to be.

[@CloudOmegaVII]

Terrible explanation.
