2:20 Generally, everyone just refers to it as just the Siege Megatron mold. Like if you wanna get hyper specific, there's 3 main variants, the original Siege one, Earthrise and then the Miner Megs one
Earthrise has been used in: it's og released and the Gen Selects G2 colours + this current one Miner Megs has been used in: it's own respective two pack and the subsequent SDCC Fractured Friendship two pack
my favourite part of nistuff videos is when he shows multiple figures next to each other and says one of the following "Nice, Yup, Cool, Sweet, Great, Good, Sick" it's the little things man
@@NiStuff Honestly, what was more shocking was the value, by modern standards he’s cheap, they trimmed the fat (as Takara did for the Three Best Friends pack that just went up), threw in some Optimus dlc for ER Prime or the big fancy new SS86 Prime and fairly knocked the price down. I mean it’s clear that the scale is gonna creep again (SS86) so they’re getting the last hurrah out of these molds before the next overhaul.
These fellas look GORGEOUS! I've heard a lot of QC complaints about Megatron, so you're not alone. Time to retire that Siege mould. SS86 Megatron now, please!
In order; Yeeeah that tracks for Megatrons. I've heard not great things about a lot of the reuses of that mold after Earthrise. I haven't noticed yellowing on mine yet, but I haven't taken him out that often since i'm trying to keep space for displays to a minimum. Soundwave is uncomplicated in general and has to do a lot to be bad. Glad to see he's still trucking on. Shockwave, I do kinda wish he still came with the extra gunship armor stuff because that was genuinely a fun addition to him even if it wasn't exactly worth the leader class price. Still, looks stellar! Oooh my lord that SG Shockwave at the end looks clean. I love that you turned the gun arm into this like, huge three-fingered blaster thing like he had when he was based on Energon Shockblast. And that other set you showed the preview of makes me wish at some point they did an MCU Jarvis thing and had whichever Teletraan they have for a series like, ascend to full bot-hood and become Mainframe. Shocked they never did it in the netflix series since they went far enough to have Teletraan-1 actively choose to reconfigure the Ark into a titan.
Man they sure got their mileage out of that wfc megs mold. Could you imagine if designers got royalties for every bot printed from a mold? Dr. Warfur Saibatronne-Megatrunne would have like a blagillion shanix and a summer home on Dagobah.
I love the colors of all of these, but I also have 75% of this box set in a deco I like. I cannot justify it for just shockwave, especially when that comic one just came out
Great looking set and presentation but I had older versions of all 3 so I passed, looks like I made a decent choice. Hopefully the Autobot set I have on pre-order is a little better QC-wise. Never had Earthrise Optimus or SS Jazz, and I've been waiting for that Action Master repaint of Mainframe. It's about time they got to reusing that mold for the only other thing they could 😆 Thanks for showing them off as always!
I got the Autobot HQ set on pre-order because of the accurately colored mainframe, but haven’t pulled the trigger on this one yet. I definitely think I’ll pass on the third set that was just revealed because I don’t personally need any of those figures
I've really wanted to get this pack for a good while! Wish it was slightly cheaper though, since the price is what's been putting me off! I also think you could use the hot air blower thing that you dry your hair with (forgot what it's called) to fix megatron's problems with the arms not tabbing in
"Triple butthole" is my new stage name XD Those are like serious knockoff type issues wtf just bad molding all around. Also, have you seen/what did you think of TF:One? edit: Dunno who that is, but I'm calling that one fella "Bumblewave"
6:47 Ok I know this was record months ago as the "reveal" of the Autobot set, I'm assuming you already you already see that grey throne on its own for pretty much a deluxe price?! That is kinda tempted since it means I don't have to but Starscream but it's kinda niche for me and don't have a space for it.
Yeah recorded a while ago, and also yeah the throne’s a nice chunk of plastic but I was just hopin for a slight color difference lol maybe some added / glued on / minor molding details between different releases.
The comic Shockwave is pretty dope.

Miner Megs has been used in: it's own respective two pack and the subsequent SDCC Fractured Friendship two pack

I’m so glad I hesitated and Marvel Shockwave became a thing. IT’S BEAUTIFUL
Its true, the comic shockwave’s very nice!

@@chadking375 yeah youre right, super good value
@@NiStuff I had to get both sfgdsd
I bought the set because I'm a Soundwave sycophant but Shockwave is also very very nice
Edit: holy crap that custom Shockwave looks nice
Yeah, the two wave boys from this set really came out nice. And thanks!
These fellas look GORGEOUS! I've heard a lot of QC complaints about Megatron, so you're not alone. Time to retire that Siege mould. SS86 Megatron now, please!
That 3H Flamewar Megs custom is really cool!
Thanks!

Custom shattered glass Shockwave is dope, and I hope we get a "one of em I got mastermind creations cheetor"

So true
2:23 Megatron marathon Megatron mania Megatron madness just a few suggestions

Anytime! 👍
Oooh that shattered glass Shockwave custom
Hell yeah
Godspeed Mr.Stuff! (Also, the more I see of this set - The more I feel like I've dogded a bullet😅)
🫡 and for real shockwave’s killer, soundwaves nice but not great, megs is busted lol
Wonder if he’s gonna consider getting any of those Comic Edition figures lol
The Shockwave one is perfection
6:09, COOL! Who are all of those Shockwaves? One looks like Astro Magnum...
Excellent work!
2:56 oooooh man I did NOT know you could bend that so much
RIP Ni Stuff
I agree about the Megatron head. I dont know why they make face closer to the MP Megs head or the galvatron face.
Oooooo...Unicron Trilogy reference for the win (assuming thats supposed to be Sixshot)
I framed my cover too.
Its a good one!
I see the Shockwave Train continues… I’d love to see an Amazon Reviews of Bumblebee Movie Shockwave 👌
Yeah that shockwave is the main reason I’d get it…. *if I had money.*
Great video as always
Beautiful set!Hopefully they iron out the qc issues….and release that shockwave on his own lol
That would be sick
The funny thing is I literally just placed an order for this the other day 😂
Ha nice, maybe the qc issues are fixed by now 🤷♂️
my megatron has a load of build issues, same ones with the arms, and the hips, knees, thigh swivels and ankles are really loose
We're did you buy it
@@VinnieMotianStudios Indemand toys
2:20 whats up with the arcee inside of the megatron?
Flamewar custom from the comics
I got the Autobot HQ set on pre-order because of the accurately colored mainframe, but haven’t pulled the trigger on this one yet. I definitely think I’ll pass on the third set that was just revealed because I don’t personally need any of those figures
I call em Siege Megatron and Earthrise Megatron
I've really wanted to get this pack for a good while! Wish it was slightly cheaper though, since the price is what's been putting me off! I also think you could use the hot air blower thing that you dry your hair with (forgot what it's called) to fix megatron's problems with the arms not tabbing in
Bending it made a slight difference but its true that a hair dryer or heat gun probably would solidify those fixes haha
Uh...do I wanna know what that Megatron was? The one with what looked like a recolored Arcee sticking out of his chest?
Comic reference, flamewar + megatron puppet basically lol
@NiStuff ill assume custom job not upgrade kit ngl would kinda love one of it tho
@@sarge9850 yeah, fully custom.
Were did you by it
I hope this isn’t the last time we see you Mr. Stuff
🫡
im getting the new dramatic capture set with blitzwing and astrotrsin in nicer colors also cant wait for ss megatron
Is there something fundamentally wrong w your Megatron or is he just a big Skybound fan?
"Triple butthole" is my new stage name XD
Those are like serious knockoff type issues wtf just bad molding all around. Also, have you seen/what did you think of TF:One?
edit: Dunno who that is, but I'm calling that one fella "Bumblewave"
🤣🤣🤣 and I havent seen it yet, probably this Friday
@@NiStuff See it as many times as you can. It's great!
@@Norrisc761 will do
86 Megatron when?
Like studio series? Or what
What is that yellow Shockwave?? Is it a custom or something?
Yeah my custom take on sg shockwave
megatron's qc is unfortunately widespread. it's REALLY bad
Commentating hoping the algorithum helps your set up.
Appreciate it!
