TransArt BWM-09 BLADE LEOPARD Shadow Transformers Beast Wars Masterpiece Transmetal 2 Cheetor Review

[@LordCornshoe]

Can't wait for their TM2 Dinobot!

[@Benscollectables]

going to be sooooooo good

[@RodimusMinor1987]

I am hoping for Rampage and Depthcharge

[@alvin12822]

Can't wait for Depthcharge.. in masterpiece scale.. that'll be so cool on the shelf..

[@Benscollectables]

They have teased both :)

[@nails47]

Same. Hope they are able the do a depth charge and rampage as well

[@robertcoleman799]

I can't wait for mine to arrive!!! For blackaracnias' legs, soak them in silicone oil first, then hold them close to the joint to bend them. It worked for me, hope it helps you out. Cheers

[@Benscollectables]

Great tip! Thank you

[@ZX-Gear]

What is the issue? Too stiff?

[@robertcoleman799]

@@ZX-Gear yes!! A number of people have broken two or more legs just bending them right out the box.

[@robertcoleman799]

@@Benscollectables you're welcome!! Thanks for the review👍👍👍

[@Fenrek]

Glad you uploaded this, just got mine today and was super confused how the cheetah head went inside the chest because I didn't look when I transformed him first. Yeah the plastic quality is a bit on the thinner side which was strange given how Megatron was so thick and hefty on materials. Still really looking forward to their Dinobot and Tarantulas❤

[@Rako_the_Awesome]

Oh lord, this is amazing. Glad I ordered it to go with Masterpiece Cheetor and Metal Leopard Commander.

[@kylejohnson5386]

Thanks for the review. He also has an abdomin hinge to fill in his kitty mode. 👍🏾

[@Benscollectables]

Oh I’ll check that

[@nails47]

Just got mine was expecting die cast but the sculpt detail is very show accurate and a huge upgrade over the original toy back in the 90/2000.

[@dungeondelversguild]

Muffet is that you? Batttlestar is waiting for you. LOL

[@FSUincRS]

just got mine in, altho im dissapointed he doesn't seem to have at the very least ratchets on his joints the paint job is insane (i won't get to see how he looks with my other MPs as they are packed up and ready to move cheetor is also getting packed up after i transform him atleast once) dissapointed with lack of discast as he feels a tad light but these are mostly nitpicks, transart have done an amazing job once again!

[@AdAce21]

this figure looks amazing!! It'd be cool if they do a Depth Charge (and Rampage along with him).

[@Benscollectables]

I believe they have in fact teased both

[@AdAce21]

@@Benscollectables awesome!

[@craftcollects]

You're video comes out on the heels of me making my Show Z watch list of TM Megs, TM Rattrap restock, and this Cheetor 😅... it's meant to be.

[@Benscollectables]

lol its fate

[@ZX-Gear]

The original toy of TM2 Cheetor was a favorite of mine. I am glad someone is doing some more Transmetal 2 stuff.

[@Benscollectables]

Ah yeah I had the original back in the day :)

[@RodimusMinor1987]

That Transformation is exactly like his OG toy, and I dig it, I hope I can find one at TFN this year for a reasonable price and I hope Transarts do Depth charge. Also are you having a stall this year too man, I wonder what you will have

[@Benscollectables]

Think PrimeTimeToyz have them so they may bring them to TFnation

[@RodimusMinor1987]

@@Benscollectables Awesome I will have to check them out

[@snesfan8935]

Lovely interpretation of Transmetal Cheetor.

[@Hellanissan7]

Wow this is amazing. I almost forgot about this version. I used to have the original toy for this one when I was a kid.

[@bman3794]

This is the version of the toy I wanted as a kid.

[@capXstar]

Happy to hear you're moving to Canada. Keep in mind it's Beasties here and not Beast Wars because the broadcaster for Transformers was YTV and blah blah.

[@Benscollectables]

Lol yeah I’m aware , at least you still got Ninja Turtles and Gi Joe lol , we had Hero Turtles (ninja’s are too violent) and Action Force 🤣

[@Alex876]

awesome cant wait for silverbolt and quickstrike

[@RID01S]

Looks very nice, I still want their Transmetal Megatron badly

[@Benscollectables]

Apparently the reissue is even better

[@madskater5]

If you're in a position to do it, I say do it while you can. The reissue is a little better and the price came down a little. It's a solid deal until it sells out and becomes ebay-only.

[@RID01S]

@@madskater5 yup, eBay has him at reasonable prices too💯

[@bw_kollectr]

love this review ! much love ben!

[@jayrodchannel]

Man i hope we'll get a legacy transmetal 2 cheetor since we already have transmetal 2 megatron and i hope they release it along with transmetal 2 Dinobot. But great video tho

[@The_Barroth]

And now we wait for the ravage retool Love that design from the comics. Better than the show tbh

[@SadikiStGeorgeangemon44]

Finallly 🙌🏾🙌🏾, hopefully someone does a Silverbolt

[@adamluther5836]

You'll wanna search for TransArt BWM-12, they've already shown of 3d renders of this guy earlier this month.

[@SadikiStGeorgeangemon44]

@@adamluther5836 finally they doing him Justice

[@THEShoky]

These later figures have me feeling some fomo.

[@Benscollectables]

Get them while you can :)

[@THEShoky]

@@Benscollectables would that I could but space is already at a premium. No space or money to start a new collection.

[@swolarvortex]

It's possible they kept it lighter in order to benefit weight distribution, but who really knows. Felt the same way about weijiang mpm megatron KO, but alas it poses quite well without having arbitrary heaviness in different places.

[@reaktorleak89]

I busted out my original Cheetor TM2 figure...yeah it's hot garbage compared to this. This looks like my memory of my old figure lol.

[@MiracleUniverse-fg8wb]

Why aren’t the toys packaged in alt mode like they used to be?!

[@marcdaniel4060]

Not a complex transformation but you did miss a couple steps. The neck should also be rotated and there is a flap on the waist that flips up to help close the gap on the underside of the cat

[@Benscollectables]

Not sure what you means about the neck but yeah I am aware of the little waist flap

[@marcdaniel4060]

@@Benscollectables At 7:34 when you turn the head around you should also turn the neck around. The "metal" looking detail should follow the underside of his jaw so the screw hole is facing the floor. The beige detail should be up

[@idstealer000]

Was supposed to have mine a couple of days ago, supposedly delivered. Contacted ShowZ hopefully they come through for me, never had an issue with this store before. So hopefully I’ll be enjoying mine soon. Initially I was going to pass on this guy but I have no control and can’t resist the call of the beasts.

[@FSUincRS]

i was also gonna pass on him but couldn't resist lol mine just got here today hopefully yours has arrived by now.

[@bumbledouche3323]

I can't help but feel the spots should be a little darker to contrast more against the base colour, but it still looks great. I'm not a fan of the eye stickers. The ones I got with their TM Megatron were *woefully* cut in weird, mismatched shapes. There wasn't a single pair that matched.

[@Daltinian95]

With this company putting out the botcon arcee deco of Blackarachnia, i hope we see the tripredacus agent deco of this mold. Im also holding out hope for Apelinq and Transmetal Tigatron. Maybe we could see windrazor from the upcoming silverbolt?

[@Benscollectables]

I would buy them all

[@karsonhinojosa2163]

Beast mode is easy, but my copy's back can't close unless the head is upside down!!! Idk if mine had a defect but I don't think it's supposed to go in there like that is the chest can't close either

[@michelcoolguy1701]

I’m really debating wether I should get him or trabsmetal tarantulas

[@giovannimaurice9015]

I used to have the original one.

[@dk6419]

Wish these weren't mp scale id love to get them but sont have the space.

[@Burns_RED]

Surprisingly easy transformation

[@bimantara_ali]

this cheetor is cool af

[@dk6419]

Do you think theyll rerelease the tm2 blackarachnia with improved legs? I held off as they are insanely brittle.

[@adamluther5836]

They have been sending out replacements upon request. I was unlucky in having one of mine break, but the general consensus seems to be once they were carefully flexed a couple times without breakage, there was no apparent issue or further need for concern. Several people had very good luck letting them sit in very warm water for a few minutes before attempting any manipulation.

[@julioh7013]

How thin are we talking about for the plastic? Thinner than FT but still solid enough? or thin closer to brittle?

[@FSUincRS]

doesnt feel brittle at all just light but i think thats mostly because he does NOT have diecast and pretty much rest of the MPs do

[@nate316]

What part of Canada are you moving to?

[@Benscollectables]

St Albert in Alberta

[@HerohammerStudios]

I just really wish these were in the generations scale. Never liked the Masterpiece scale much

[@treybrady9134]

I want this
