I Think This Is The WORST Leader I Have |

[@sebyt2062]

They could have just taken the voyager, made it bigger with some improvements, filled the gaps and it would be MILES better

[@sirhellsing]

you just described dragoon in a nutshell (just mp levels of complex but it follows the voyager in terms of where everything goes) so yea you are right. Take the voyager, fold the feet more so it's hidden, maybe do something a bit more complex with the nose of the jet since leaders have more budget, and you have a perfect leader right there

I know this figure isn’t the best, far from it, but it’s one of my favorites. As someone who doesn’t own Unique Toys’s take, I love this design and, in turn, this figure. Haven’t finished the video but I do bet everything you say is valid! Great review so far!

[@ThonnyTheNot]

Hope this guy gets a studio series figure at some point

[@Fruit_handler]

That kind of sword seems to work like a warhammer would: armor piercing. Except that a warhammer uses it's weight and it's spike to do so. I have no clue if a sword like this ever existed, but it seems like something impractical because 1: the edge is univen because of those ribs, 2: as a thrusting weapon it wouldn't work well since the tip is too wide and 3, ideally you'd use it as a worse war hammer but even then, if you want a heavy slashing weapon you could use an axe

[@custommediacreations]

I think the name for this weapon is a sycamore. It’s a rip and tear weapon if I’m not mistaken, first it would pierce an opponent with the top edge and on it’s way down the second blades under the top ones would tear into the opponent. A very dangerous weapon if used correctly. I really don’t see how it would work against a Cybertronian.

[@j-sant-animations8105]

@@custommediacreationsconsidering everyone is made of layers and layers of parts and exposed wires and jagged bits, I’d say it’s a perfect weapon for their species. And that does make sense as how it works, I guess it’s like a pickaxe pretending to be a sword

@@j-sant-animations8105 Oh yeah, I forgot that transformers are essentially full of openings and wires and such. That weapon would be more devastating to a cybertronian than a human. It's a pity Megatron did absolutely nothing with it.

Literally the only thing that this version does better than the Voyager is that it has the battle mask. If the Voyager had that, it would be perfect.

[@Redstonestudios707]

Perhaps when Hasbro finally makes a studio series figure of tlk megs, they could make it so the fusion cannon can be pegged on and off the robot, and vehicle modes like unique toys dragoon. And they could probably have the wings be removable, so they could combine and probably transform a little bit to make the shield!

I still think TLK was only as terrible as it was because of the critics. The movie was meant to be a long movie but the critics screamed at Bay to make it shorter so he ended up having to cut out like half the movie, which caused it to come out as it did which was the jumbled terrible not cohesive mess that it was.

as far as the nose cone is concerned, if you want to display him in jet mode you can wedge an object in the gap underneath it to prevent it from randomly popping open.

[@galaxycamerata]

I think it's kind of a miracle the alt mode and robot mode for TLK Megatron look so cohesive despite having at least two separate last minute design changes done to it, one of which literally turned it ass backwards and the other being _a fucking dragon_ that didn't look anything like either jet mode.

After one of the springs on my DOTM Meg's Mechtech Weapon popped, and after AOE Galvatron underwhelmed me (though looking at the SS variant, perhaps I judged him too harshly for what he had to achieve), I ended up picking this guy up when I saw him in a Walmart (no voyager Megatrons to be seen). And you know what? I actually really liked the dude. I loved how massive and imposing he was over all my other Decepticons, I adored his sword-hilt-jet, and I admired how he looked like a gladiator that survived the pits of Kaon. It also helped that I knew of his gorilla-arms and trigger happy cannon so I had my expectations tempered. Overall, I found that I loved more things about this guy than minor nitpicks, and he's still in my collection as my definitive Megatron, even after all the SS releases.

There's trick to keeping the front end closed. If you push the cannon in all the way after you close the two halves together it'll lock them in.

[@DoinItforNewCommTech]

It's insane to me that we went from the total lack of quality control of the """Premier Edition""" Last Knight toyline in 2017, and the "clearly they lost their whole budget and had to reuse an old gimmick"-ness of Power of the Primes in 2018, to Siege in 2019, which is actually... good? And might have saved the toyline? Like the total lack of quality during 17-18 was absolutely dire, I would love to know what on Earth happened in the Hasbro offices in those years (especially when toys take about 2 years to go from design to retail, and 2015 was Combiner Wars, which seemed to do pretty well at retail and reinvigorated a lot of interest in Transformers toys!)

[@giantbonsai8950]

"take $30 and go buy one of these instead....i'm just kidding" No no, you're not wrong. That is the correct way to transform leader TLK Megatron. Gently push it into a trash can and go buy the voyager.

[@Indie3444]

I hate bad QC. Mine is mostly fine-just loose hips and a similarly bad battlemask. I'm sorry that both of your copies have been broken. I'll just stay with my Unique Toys one. Do you have that?

[@jacobjohnson9213]

This is actually a good figure. The nose cone issue can be corrected by pushing the trigger for it forward, latching it in place more firmly. while the backpack isn't as slick as the design the voyager has, the jet is actually nicer and the battlemask gimmick is a fair trade off. The voyager is good too but I would hesitate to call it better, only thing objectively better on it is the cannon, the rest is going to depend on what you like. Biggest issue on the figure is the battle mask is frequently misassembled and rests asymmetrically on the face. There wasn't a bad megatron toy in the last knight unless you're getting into crap like the titan changer. Remember the other leaders too, biodegradable Dragonstorm and an Optimus with no chrome and also less paint. Good fun figure with some flaws, and we had an excellent voyager option if you wanted better scale and robot accuracy.

[@heavyhitter5538]

I actually like it why i bought it. Awesome jet mode. Not so bad looking robot mode that has appropriate size for Studio Series. And ofcourse the face transforming gimmick was cool. Btw yours had lot of issues my copy doesnt have. I even painted some parts of the head red. Its perfect.

Not a bad review, I have the figure and I love it. My only question was why you fought with the cockpit/fusion cannon at all.
