    This is one of 4 figures ever to make me stop in my tracks and just glare in awe ar how amazing it is, those others being Legacy Black Zarak, 86 Grimlock and Kingdom Blackarachnia.

    Transmetal 2 Megatron was my holy grail toy as a kid while Beast Wars aired. I had every version of him and Optimus up until that point (including the bat vs alligator set) but never got the dragon. So 2 years ago when I discovered Jiang Xing and their 3rd party Winged Dragon (this character) I just had to get it which I did and I consider it the centerpiece of my collection but I'm really tempted to get this figure now, which I initially overlooked. Admittedly WingedDragon, for me, is mostly a display piece due to his size, weight, complexity and the fact that the more I touch it the higher the chance more of that beautiful paint job will get damaged.
    But this toy doesn't seem to be left wanting. Good size, complex (for a mainline) transformation, no QC issues, and a good enough paintjob for the budget. I wish given the lack of accessories they could've given him an articulated right hand but the recent leak about a Leader class Tigerhawk coming next year is making this purchase very tempting. For how good WingedDragon is, there's nobody for him to be displayed with as there's no 3rd party TigerHawk for the forseeable future and he's taller than TransArt's version of Optimal Optimus (which happens to pair well with Legacy's version).

    • @PerspectiveEnd

    Also, if you don’t have him already, Tarn has to be the best figure from Legacy Evo. The robot mode has literally no kibble, it looks great, and I had to stop myself from just sitting at my desk and posing him repeatedly, since he has several specialty joints and just feels evil. Transformation has some interesting parts that are not very intuitive, and the alt mode is hindered by the hands sticking out the back, but definitely a must. Can’t wait to see your thoughts.

    For starters, it is nice to see you that happy again...yeeesssss 😈
    And as for the figure, I'm not 100% sure, but since you said the Flame effeckt is reused it got me thinking from where it comes from. And I think that's a re-use from a Comander TF5 Megatron.
    Also, technicly there is one thing that this figure is missing, but I also know that it is a part that literally NOBODY cares about. Aka the transport mode. (but like I said, I struggle to find anyone who ever cared about this part).
    And as for the question of the video ...
    Who's your second favorite Transmetal 2 desighn and why?

    • @PerspectiveEnd
      @PerspectiveEnd  Před rokem +1

      Yes, it's nice to be Happy.
      Yes it's from the TLK Megatron you are correct sir!
      Yes that's missing and yes NO one cares.
      I guess that'd be Cheetor, because there were only Him, Megatron, and Blackarachnia in the show, and I actively Hated Blackarachnia's Design.

    PE, I was going to tell you about the DNA upgrade kit to "fix" the face sculpt, but it appears you already know about it. Still I feel as though this gives the figure some extra touches that simply improve upon its overall greatness. I did pick this figure up, but not for myself. Instead this will be my nephew's Easter gift. He's 8 and this is going to blow his fucking mind.

    Definitely a favorite Legacy for me. I love when a figure is just enjoyable to look at no matter what mode it's in. I don't even mind the toy styled robot face THAT much, as it fits the vibe of the rest of it (massive red demon of hate). For full presence, I like the wings splayed in every mode.

    • @PerspectiveEnd

    @OverlordIntecris Před rokem +1

    If you loved TM2 Megs this much, I can't wait to see you review Tarn. I picked one up a week or two ago, and it's absurd. It feels like they made an R.E.D toy and decided to give it an alt-mode. There are basically zero gaps in robot mode, and the poseability is nuts. There are one or two small hangups during the transformation, but overall, I'm a big fan.

    • @PerspectiveEnd
      @PerspectiveEnd  Před rokem +1

      I mean if it was a RED figure then it wouldn't be able to pose well because they couldn't even do that right in the RED line.

  • @DragoonMS

    Another thing gimmick wise is that Transmetal 1 peeps were "triple changers" in a sense as they had some (pretty half-assed) vehicle modes...except for Optimal Optimus, who has two (because he's a quad changer). Transmetal 2 peeps LOSE the vehicle mode entirely. No flip-out jet engines for Cheetor or Megatron, for instance. (PotP took away the "truck" mode of Optimal Optimus for the sake of the Evolution gimmick, but the DNA Design upgrade kits brings it back along with extra goodies)

    • @PerspectiveEnd
      @PerspectiveEnd  Před rokem

      That's not true. Cheetor had the Extending Singular Rocket in his back in his TM2 mode, and TM Megatron did have an AWFUL Truck Mode.

  • @thedaddyspider

    This was one of my favorite toys as a kid. Along with Transmetal: Tarantulas, RatTrap, Cheetor Megatron and Primal. And the big Kahunas, tying for first place: TIGERHAWK and RAMPAGE! So… half a dozen “favorites” across two years worth of figures (26 total iirc?). Oh, and TM2 Black Arachnia.
    I had EVERY Transmetal (except AirRazor whom I never saw in stores) and EVERY Transmetal 2. All the Deluxe Fuzors, too. Though I gave some of the basic model figures a pass in that line. These toys were my shit! And I am SO STOKED to finally get a new TM2 Megs!

      I LOVED the Transmetal figures as a Kid, you know me Shiny thing good, and they were so Shiny.

      I had SEVERAL Airazors growing up, which was funny cause I didn't really care for her Transmetal figure.

    The only way to get Maximals on par with the Predacons is to either hope Silverbolt and the eventual depthcharge are S+ tier, or we get toy beast wars characters that are A+ tier.
    Also I think the only reason Megatron looks show accurate, is because there are no real dragons to make him accurate to, so they don't have to stick to make it real life accurate.
    Also also, my beast wars collection is temporary finished (may get this guy and Leo primal, don't have Airazor or Tigatron do to not like Airazor's face and not wanting to get bigger Cheetor with out her, and wanting toy beast wars characters)

    1:11 Yeah, speaking of distribution again, the Target where I found Tarn and Scraphook also just started getting copies of Hot Shot, Armada Starscream, and one copy of Inferno-of whom I did buy and do thoroughly enjoy.
    However I did not see any new Leaders like TM2 Megatron or The Fallen yet. I’ll have to eventually see at other stores when I have the time.
    But man does it say something when Legacy Wave 3 is only now starting to properly show up in American stores-at least from everywhere I’ve been-and they’re releasing at the same time as Legacy Evolution; the current wave we’re supposed to be focused on at the moment.
    It’s time like these where I really miss Toys “R” Us. Since they were mostly a toy store, all toy related companies would send their products there. And I believe that if Toys “R” Us was still around in America-as proper stores-we’d be seeing better distribution of Transformers figures. Seriously, we really need the return of a general retailer toy store in America. The UK has Smyths while we have nothing at the moment.
