These Exclusives Are Getting Out Of Hand | #transformers Legacy Velocitron Voyager Override Review
This video is meant for adult collectors and not for kids.
Fun fact:in the japanese version of cybertron (galaxy force),override was originaly a male called "nitro convoy",but since hasbro in that time wanted more female characters,they choose to give the character a female gender
They literally have a team of writers that could've just created a new character as a female instead.
@@kingragnork hey if this means we can get more fembots that don't sacrifice everything just for a more femmine frame I'm down for it
@@kingragnork ‘Cause the *Japanese* studio definitely would’ve listened to Hasbro’s *American* team of localizers over their own writers. That’s how aaaall of this works.
I’m glad they did.
It was more-so Cartoon Network's descision to do that.
I read that she was initially intend as remodeling of Studio Series 86 Hot Rod, but the guys at Takara Tomy took a step further by remodeling her from ground up. The fact that her gun has a Cyber Key hole shows just how much Takara put their passion and love to the toy itself and that giving the right people a chance to show off their talents really paid off.
A Transformer that rolls well and actually has pinned on wheels in the front and back. Such a breath of fresh air.
override is the only velocitron series figure i was able to pick up, but she’s so worth it, the toy is basically perfect. maybe missing a few paint apps compared to the show, but it’s pretty much exactly how i remember her
Shes gorgeous 😍 I was lucky with Cosmos, Road Rocket and Black Convoy Scourge but I've been waiting for her.
The cubertron intro was probably the best transformers intro out there
Collectors when Hasbro makes exclusives: Our bank accounts are in danger
Gunpla is way worse
Lol
Facts
To save them and our wallets
We must find 4 cyber bank credit cards
Before hasbro can use them for evil
I actually walked into our smyths toy store and was not expecting to find override, she was the last one on the shelf and I just grabbed her along with legacy elita-1, both figures are great
Cybertron was the line that was out when I was first getting into transformers, so I have a lot of nostalgia for it. I was super excited to get this figure, and it does not disappoint.
And, of course;
O U R W O R L D S A R E I N D A N G E R
Exactly how I feel. And never having the original Override mold, this figure is incredible. It got me watching Cybertron again, and while some of the lines are a little odd it still holds up imo.
TO SAVE THEM AND THE GALAXY, WE MUST FIND THE FOUR CYBER PLANET KEYS BEFORE THE DECEPTICONS CAN USE THEM FOR EVIL
@@optimistprime3192 I would’ve gone for the old one, but her arms are weird.
IT IS OUR MISSION.
@@optimistprime3192 i remember watching the cybertron episodes on the hasbro website as a kid and always wanted a transformer toy but due to parents being overly strict with the stuff I got to enjoy at the time, I didn't get my first transformers toy till 2008 which ended up being jungle bone crusher because it didn't have any "guns" on it. but here I am now, collecting old figures I never got to enjoy as a kid
@@mechanwhal6590 Hot Shot! Jetfire! Vector Prime! Landmine! Scattershot! Optimus Prime! Transfoooooorrm and Roll Out!!!!!!
@@Ironmew05 TRANSFORMERS
MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE
Since we've gotten Blurr and are getting Tarn, I really hope that they find a way retool this mold into IDW Rodimus. Probably won't happen but I can dream...
There is a listing next year for a deluxe velocitron Hot Rod. My guess is it will be IDW Hot Rod
@@Poop-oc8gu It’s a voyager but I think and hope they pull a MMC and retool the Override into MTMTE Rodimus.
@@tfuniverse1651 sorry, I meant voyager
@@Poop-oc8gucanceled 😢
Cybertron design's always hit different and I like it.
I swear if hasbro makes the tarn figure an exclusive figure I'm going to be beyond mad. Also can they save the exclusive figures for lesser none characters please? Like flamewar or something else
Hasbro made flamewar
@@corytron1120 Yeah but Flamewar's an exclusive is what I think Kyle is saying
yeah, hasbro has been putting exclusives out on their website, so that is nice, but it does quickly sell out and can probably not be available in certain areas
Yeah unless you're in the US or UK, good luck getting a toy from Pulse.
I don't get why after, what, 2 years? 3? It's STILL not an international thing. Hasbro Australia **exists**. Surely it wouldn't be hard for them to just ~~sell us things~~
I returned to this video to say that Override did not disappoint. I am so glad I saw this review before I got the figure, because she is amazing
ive had 2 of the original and as much as i like the character and really want the new one, im convinced the old one came out loose. i dont recall a time where either of my originals were capable of standing, and i got one of them when they were on shelves. they also both broke in the same spot, the tab the holds the leg in place in car mode broke off. excited to have an override who can stand and hold itself together
GREAT REVIEW!... I went to THREE Walmart stores in my area a couple of days ago... Couldn't find Cosmos or Override at any of them... I had to get them from other online sellers... One of which i purchased from a scalper that was selling COSMOS for more than twice the price of it instore, and I still had to pay shipping on top of that... Yeah, these exclusives for mainline characters and/or new molds needs to stop... Couldn't find Clampdown or Road Hauler either. Had to order those online as well, to make sure I got those in my collection too... I did see all the others variously stocked at those three stores... But, what's the point of these exclusives, if you can't get them IN THE STORES where they are supposed to be sold at?... In addition, I never saw Earthrise Red Alert at any of the half dozen Walgreens I checked, which I checked several times during the winter months last year... I spent so much time and gas trying to track some of these down, and got "nothing" for my troubles... You would think living in a major city, you could find them, somewhere...
Being that Override is Nitro Convoy in Japan, it would've been cool if she (and Legacy Metroplex) had a spot for their own Matrixes (like under the windshield). Would totally mess with the canon, but as an easter egg? I think it would be fun.
Totally agree about the exclusives, though. They are getting WAY out of hand. I was lucky enough to find Override and Hauler on my first try (they were my must-haves), but then you factor in stuff like the Buzzworthy 4-packs (I JUST want Fangry!), the Shattered Glass line, Generations Selects, the Pulsecon exclusives, the Amazon exclusives... look. I JUST want to buy toys. It shouldn't be this hard to track down a freakin' Terrorsaur or a ****Cosmos****. Calm down, Hasbro!
You need to move to Great Falls, Montana. My Walmart and Target always seem to carry an over abundance of exclusives and they actually had way to many Velocitron characters, now Ross has a ton of them( I got Scourge for $15) but sometimes Walmart isn’t always great about getting to many Leader classes, other than that I’ve been very fortunate, great video and figure.
I had the original one as a kid still do but that middle piece snapped off and I was never able to find it behold 17 yrs later my parents recognized override and I got it as a gift for Xmas and I had that feel old moment at 21 when i compared the original to the current release I love this fig and recommend it 100 percent
I have a feeling the #1 3D printed upgrade accessory for Override will be a Cyber Key.
why? you could buy the real ones probably for cheaper than anything a 3p could make
@@thedeadpoolwhochuckles.6852 I saw a vintage Cyber Key on eBay for $17.
@@TomMSTie1138 I bought one for her off of eBay for $8 last week
cybertron had such a good theme
They're at Smyth's Toys in the UK for anyone not American.
I am eager for mine to arrive from Pulse. It looks SO good and I've heard so much praise. The only thing I plan to do is get my boyfriend to paint her headlight toes and engine-spoiler-gun, if only for a little more colour breakup. Otherwise, she's EXACTLY what I hoped for.
I had a toy that looked exactly like that as a kid. Played with it all the time. Cool to see it again
All those satisfying snaps and clicks during the transformation, mmm
This figure is an enigma in the modern TF world. It feels so stable with the many slots and pegs securing everything in place. The wheels aren't even clipped in; instead they're on good old-fashioned metal pins. There's also barely any hollow areas in robot mode. Override is just so well-made.
Hasbro: *makes an entire sub-line Wal-Mart exclusive*
Me who bought a copy from a scalper on eBay: "Improvise. Adapt. Overcome."
I’ve never heard of override before but the design looks cool
From the cybertron show
Literally everyone finding out about any transformers character
This was the figure I was most excited for this year. I finally got it from Pulse and it's the absolute best figure I've had in a while.
I believe heel spurs are designed that way cause of the leg transformation
I was able to get in on the preorders for Override on Pulse which is lucky cause Hauler is the only Velocitron toy I've seen on the shelves of my Walmart. I was charged just the other day, so hopefully it'll be here soon.
As someone who actually quite likes the Armada and Cybertron designs, if we're getting a line of those characters, but without the gimmicks to force designers to do some compromises. I am absolutely all for it
Got mine on Wednesday, and she has been a blast to transform. Only thing that kinda bothers me is that they could've added her Cyberplanet key with that Voyager price point.
At 3:56 exactly he fixes the hands
Don't know why I spotted that
He must've noticed that he forgot to rotate the hands when he transformed the figure.
going to every walmart in my city but only seeing blurr, burn out, and road rocket :)
She’s coming in the mail on Tuesday and I cannot wait.
Guess I'll pick this one up from my Walmart. Actually, buy multiple to give away (at original retail price) encase the prices get really high
I really do wish less of these were Walmart exclusives, because as happy as I am to finally own a Legacy Override, this is the first time I ever saw one of these in stock.
just snatched mine up this morning. it's great.
Ah, transformers, my childhood...
Honest to god, I'm ready to sell my kidneys just to get Override -and Minerva-
i just got this figure on sale in a toy store recently, it was the only one and boy it is real nice
Dang this figure is great! I wished the Cybertron Optimus had just as good of proportions as this figure, Prime looked too chunky with that Magnus mold.
I recently aquired this figure and it’s fantastic. I love it so much. Transformers Cybertron has a lot of nostalgia for me and Override was one of my favourite characters because, she’s a bit of a badass. I think the Robot mode is fantastic it’s just brilliant, looks pretty much how she appears in the show. The plastic quality is great, the aesthetic and proportions are way better than the original toy and I think she scales pretty well. The transformation is also quite fun to do, if a little scared in some places but pretty good. My only real nitpicks with the figure is that I think the old toy pulls off the car mode a bit better, particularly the fenders of the front bumper. The wheels look cooler on the old toy as well if I’m perfectly honest. I also think she’s missing a few paint apps here and there but it’s not too bad. 9/10 for me. Xx
if you want a better waist and a slight ab crunch i recommend you trim off the two lower red tabs on the torso, where the sides of the wheelbed and shoulders tab in, the shoulders still clip in in two other places so its fine
Interesting. I'll have to take a look at that
Just found one at my local store and picked it
up along side Road Hauler.
By far the best transformer i've seen in a while. Except for that bad ass big tank megatron.
Wow the only review I've seen that he doesn't just absolutely ape his figures
I think the reason why they did wal mart is since we don’t have a lot of chain of toy stores. Or at least in California i don’t know any close to where live. But there’s plenty of wal Marts close by and I was able to get this figure and Blur about 2 weeks ago.
I really hope they do a GTS repaint so that I can have a good Shattered Glass Elita-1
November 18th here for starscream and the rest of his wave
I'm lucky enough to have found one of these at the Walmart clearance 😂
Override with Bay Prime’s guns is such a vibe
I don't mind walmart exclusives, especialy since I live on an island in Canada.
We have 5 walmarts on my island but only 1 toys r us so finding figures is a huge pain for me but I have real good luck finding exclusives lol
Went to the walmart by my house a few days ago and they had a full shelf of this figure avaliable
Now i wanna see thunderblast, scattershot, landmind, vector prime, overhaul, ransack, thundercracker crumplezone, sixshot, shockblast, rodimus, downshift, tidelwave, ironhide, red alert, demolishor and cyclouns as legacy figures i need the whole unicron trilogy
In other words
*_yes_*
At least you still have Toys ' R ' us in Canada we here in the U.S. aren't that lucky
I actually saw an override at my Walmart but couldn't get it but I'll try now that I know it's an exclusive
Mine just shipped! Im excited!!
exclusives WERE fine till stores in my contry (France) gave up on getting transformers toys so now i can only get some on internet, that kinda sucks... Great video as always :)
I somehow managed to get one in a Wal-Mart in Virginia and I can say that the camera does not do the glossiness any justice, as on the real thing it's as glossy as a new car, but the colors are white and red so fingerprints and smears are barely a problem. However on my copy the right arm slider is really stubborn, indicating why we don't get them anymore, and it had some paint chipping right out of the box.
For all those non-scalpers out there, it's about a 40 minute drive from luray caverns. If you are a scalper, just keep driving east until you reach the beach, and then you keep on walking until you find Atlantis because that's where you belong you filthy scalper motherducker.
shawty got them bell bottom jeans
It's almost 1am, what am I even doing here?
Mine is on the way I can't wait for it to get to me!
I got Override and i absolutley love it
0:05 Optimus prime jump scare
We need a new thunderblast
Didn't realize this figure was an exclusive. Almost wish I picked one up now when I saw it.
I found override, clampdown and a cosmos all at Walmart just fine 🙏
I got this 2 days ago, reviewed it, and I literally call it the perfect figure speciffically because of that backpack being minimal, the waist swivel doesn't have issues for me and strangely the backpack ( on my copy at least) doesn't get in the way.
I FINALLY GOT THEM HERE AND GOT THE LAST ONE HOLY CRAP!!! Genuinely love this figure cause it is very nostalgic for me since I grew up on the unicron trilogy. Override was always one of my favorite characters based on design alone, so I’m so happy to have actually found it! Next up is Armada Starscream!
I preordered mine off Walmart. Lets hope I actually get it some time lol
I actually Magee to find one granted it’s was the last one they had at my Walmart but I was happy to find her and clampdown
wait UP sent you her. cool. I hope she gets her own. but in still can't decide on her or og
Someone should make an arm upgrade kit for the original toy, for the less fortunate who can’t find the new one.
I really hope this gets a rerelease as idw getaway as the mould is very close
The fact that this was originally supposed to be an SS86 Hot Rod retool is shocking. Totally different
My copy loves to paint chip
Give us legacy blitzwing already ! I can't wait for the review 😁
He is next don't worry. Lol. His video is a larger one so it's taking more time
1st time seeing your review and it was good 👍. I do absolutely agree with you about the exclusives - Override/Nitro Convoy and Cosmos are quite possibly the worst decision after the Netflix Bumblebee fiasco. New molds are fine but at least make the exclusive an alternate color and do the OG version for mass retail
I went to my old city and override was the only 1 there then when got back to my city they only had scourge I haven't found any of the others
Great bot mode, but it's kinda sneaky when the alt mode has to be compromised to pull it off.
I think mine just got shipped out! I can't wait for it to be delivered! ^^
I remembered sitting down with a bowl of cereal at 7 in the morning on saturday and just hearing OUR WORLDS ARE IN DANGER and proceeded to wake my parents up
Great review, as usual, but man I’ve been searching everywhere for a decently priced Battle Blades voyager prime and I can’t find one anywhere. Hell, I’m able to find HFTD Banzaitron, but not him. It is incredibly strange.
I find the best luck at local shops
@@ThatToyGuy I’ll have to start checking some around here then.
I love the cybertron designs and the only reason I didn't get this was because my brother wanted to get it.
now you can use his,win win
I want a new deco for this mold.
I'm fucking pissed. This was my second Transformer ever from one of my favorite seasons. And I didn't even know this existed until now
I ended finding two of her at a different Walmart in a different city but different pick them up
i know we got one in seige but i realy believe we need a new good a cyberton prime
Meanwhile my walmart is overflowing with these
the new one is solid 9.1/10
10/10 if gun can fold forward
Literally just got this figure today. Marked down for 25 dollars. I love it a lot!
........OUR WORLDS ARE IN DANGER!!!!!!
6:05 well it’s Walmart exclusive because we in America don’t have Toys R Us anymore.
Yeah I just got override yesterday
so my dad wasn't the only one who said she looked like speed racer
Sadly she's missing her headlight paint details too.
aren't the heel spurs like that because the thighs have to slot in between the prongs? and the divets on top are for the axel?
Our Wallets In Danger!
In India any transformers toy made after 2020 is exclusive. We have stopped getting new transformers from hasbro. Rumors are that hasbro might begin manufacturing toys in India, which it has with most nerf toys being made locally, even if that applies to transformers, there is no point in shutting down imports for them until they establish factories! I really hope that this is just temporary but considering the fact that we haven’t gotten ANY transformers toys for the past 2 years concerns me a lot as a collector. But I love watching your videos though!
My Walmart had them warming shelves. until they went down in price. i got the last one fo $17 just.a few minutes ago
I went to my local Walmart today and they just have WAVE 1, man my luck of getting transformers absolutely sucks, good thing i got dragstrip though :)
