The fact his peg leg is blast effect compatible and means it can be a machine gun for a peg leg is such an awesome thing, I can only really think of a few characters who have guns for peg legs, like the Scotsman from Samurai Jack
I'm late to the video here but there is a purpose to putting the paw on his sword. Thundertron is a pirate, and clasically pirates carried short swords of various types usually just called hangers. What they all had in common though was usually a short length, a slight to weak curve, and a hand guard that went from crossguard to pommel sometimes extending into a full basket or shell. The paw creates a basket handguard for his saber.
PEGLEG BLOOSH! Great review man, and congrats on being one of the earliest reviews! Thundertron looks so good. I love the navy blue with the white, and he looks like a wicked pirate. Everything I'm seeing from United makes it look like one of the best Transformers lines so far!
I'm dying to get this one, I loved the few times thundertron appeared in the aligned novels and I vaguely remember Thundertron actually fighting evenly with Megatron on an astroid while the decepticons and star seekers were having a space duel, it was amazing. I can't believe they really updated this character despite only appearing a couple of times in a few books and stuff cause it looks fantastic! Great review once again!!!
@@kamal_jab he was a librarian when he was Orion, but he switched from being the best clerk on cybertron to a pizzabagel addicted war leader that rips off faces
The plastic quality on this guy is GREAT, I was expecting the kind of weak ish feeling material they usually use on deluxes considering this guy is basically just a concept character, but they went all out on him, the plastic feels on level with leaders and the paint is beautiful, hopefully Hasbro can keep this up for the whole year
As soon as I saw this guy in the spoilers I was blown away. Thundertron was my favorite figure from the Prime BH toyline. So nice to have another figure of him, but god I wish they could've kept his claw shoulders.
I know this was posted months ago, but i just got the Star Raider version and its more than just a repaint. It has a hook for a right hand and has a completely new head sculpt
Emgo is a funny guy with a sense of humor that often makes me smile, but I've never laughed out loud until we got a peg-legged BLOOSH! This is an instant classic.
All these 2024 figures have been the best figures to come out in a while. Also I haven’t seen anyone talk about the extra tabs on the shoulders. Hopefully he’s compatible with future figures
I missed out on the first Thundertron figure in the 2010's due to my limited budget and unemployment. Now I'm tempted to want this new Thundertron if or when I see him. I can imagine this guy getting an Alpha Trion repaint. If that does happen, let us all scream "YOUNG WARRIOR."
I really Love how this figure is a cross between a transformer, a Voltron lion and a thunder cat all rolled into one. Epic awesome. He looks really nice with my other transformers too. Fits in perfectly. I can't wait to see him in some upcoming episodes or films.❤
So i just got this guy. As cool as he is i really wish his hind legs had a locking tab for beast mode like voyager silverbolt has. Makes the alt mode feel more put together and cohesive. Its unfortunate because otherwise i like the figure.
It sucks that Hasbro can't used the Star-Seekers pirates in senson 3 of Transformers Prime they move to dragon of the Predacons instead at least some books help with Prime lores help but that toy look so cool.
What I would love to see but probebly wont ever happen is a transformers prime predaking figure in modern times maybe in a similar style to these figures.
this figure almost screams cybertron leobreaker and on one hand i can see hasbro retooling this into that character and i would love to have more cybertron figures, on the other hand unless they add in parts formation there is no way to make this figure do savage claw mode and that is rather disappointing.
Like many other fans, we know our lore and characters...yet this is the one character I know nothing about. I bought the older figure and know he's a pirate. I'm assuming from the comics. But I missed it and know nothing of him.

Dont forget the stripper from Planet terror.
“Are ye scared? Aye, it’s natural. Happened to me once.”
@@hellishwerewolf7798 the what-from-where-now?
treasure planet's long john silver and his cannon leg is a classic one too
Oh man! I was wondering if someone was going to mention Samurai Jack. I immediately thought the same thing with the same scene.
Okay, your reaction to realizing the peg leg is bloosh compatible was the most adorable thing.
I know we're probably not gonna get 2 Prime beasts but..
Legacy Prime Predaking would be amazing.
He would need to be commander class as he was a big character
@@superomegaprimemk2Beat me to it, but yeah, commander class
@@superomegaprimemk2 So, perfect then. I'm down with that. ^_^
Yes
I would clear shelf space for him.
As a Right Below Knee (RBK) amputee, I approve of the bloosh compatible peg leg. 😁
Is your leg BLOOSH compatible?
My man literally had to pause the video for that peg leg bloosh😂😂😂Emgo is the best reviewer ever.

I like the new figure, i just wish he had that Davy Jones head sculpt, and the red eyes on the head and lion head.
That was an epic end skit!! The best parts were Thundertron's pirate dialog and Prime's stamp collecting.

thundercats reference .. dude you rock
That peg leg reminds me strongly of the commander from Buzz Lightyear of Star Command - he's got a cannon for a prosthetic as well!

LOVE the blooshable peg leg ability! Keep up the killer reviews, Emgo!
Well this is a blast from the past, I remember having the original Thundertron figure from Transformers Prime, probably still got him somewhere
The peg leg hiding a gun is something a pirate would totally do!
Pizzabagels, rise, legacy, spark, reactivate, now stamp collecting?! How much lore does prime have?!
Dude's a librarian, he's flush with lore
@@kamal_jab he was a librarian when he was Orion, but he switched from being the best clerk on cybertron to a pizzabagel addicted war leader that rips off faces
Yes.
Don’t forget about Gary the Vehicon
@@matthewelliott7294 Gary? Who’s Gary? R u talking about, Robert, Steven, or Timothy? #throwback lol
You could reasonably have Thundertron become general grevious when in robot mode the way his front paws are stored in his shoulder pads
Damn, was hoping the end of the skit would be Thundertron stealing Megatron's couch! 🤣
DUDE. I was so expecting that too xD
The plastic quality on this guy is GREAT, I was expecting the kind of weak ish feeling material they usually use on deluxes considering this guy is basically just a concept character, but they went all out on him, the plastic feels on level with leaders and the paint is beautiful, hopefully Hasbro can keep this up for the whole year
That Princess Bride reference in the intro...chef's kiss
thank you :)
Collect five Thundertrons in different colours and you can combine them into Voltcat.
I wonder if anyone will get the joke?
Oh man you were so happy when you realized his peg leg was bloosh compatible
I just wanna say I’ve started watching you probably when I was about 9-10 and now I’m 20 thank you for making videos after all these years
Great timing on this review, since I got the original Thundertron for Christmas with no hollow parts on him by the way. 🎄🦁🏴☠️🎁🎄
Pegleg being blooshable love it reviews are always funny and amazing keep it up
As soon as I saw this guy in the spoilers I was blown away. Thundertron was my favorite figure from the Prime BH toyline. So nice to have another figure of him, but god I wish they could've kept his claw shoulders.

awesome job about Legacy Voyager Class THUNDERTRON Action Figure from Transformers
Picked this figure up yesterday I didn’t expect to love it so much.
It is one of the best figures I’ve got in a while
There's a specific Longsword and Charge Blade from Monster Hunter that I feel would go FANTASTICALLY with this
The beast mode gives strong Voltron Lion vibes.
7:59 Ultra Instinct Theme pop
Merry Christmas to you all 🎉
When taking those beast-mode legs out of the shoulderpads while in robot mode, he can be made into General Thundertron. Kinda.
Emgo is a funny guy with a sense of humor that often makes me smile, but I've never laughed out loud until we got a peg-legged BLOOSH! This is an instant classic.
Actually when the original thundertron was released bot con or I believe the collectors club repainted it to alpha trion colors
The Blue and Bronze is making my inner Ravenclaw tap dance.
All these 2024 figures have been the best figures to come out in a while. Also I haven’t seen anyone talk about the extra tabs on the shoulders. Hopefully he’s compatible with future figures
Thundertron looks so awesome i would love to see what Happened at Magatron's base
I bet he would make off with the sofa used by the movie Megaton!!
As soon as you said something about the pegleg being bloosh compatible all I could think of was the Scotsman from Samurai jack
When the liger zero becomes a transformer
Definite Zoids vibes
it feels weird that this guy was the reason how I found Emgo's channel back in the day
10:38, righteous! Reminds me of the machine-gun legged Scotsman from Samurai Jack
That right shoulder pad has me wondering: what are those two slots for, and why isn’t it a port like the left shoulder?
Inspired by Liger from Zoids 50 years later
I wonder if they also designed him to look like an older Cybertron Snarl (I know Snarl's a wolf).
Oh no not the “Bloosh compatible Peg Leg” 🤣 I was hoping he wouldn’t notice but he did now I’m gonna be haunted by that at night 🤣
I missed out on the first Thundertron figure in the 2010's due to my limited budget and unemployment. Now I'm tempted to want this new Thundertron if or when I see him. I can imagine this guy getting an Alpha Trion repaint. If that does happen, let us all scream "YOUNG WARRIOR."
Still prefer the old one, Minus the robot head/face for sure 😂
I really Love how this figure is a cross between a transformer, a Voltron lion and a thunder cat all rolled into one. Epic awesome.
He looks really nice with my other transformers too. Fits in perfectly. I can't wait to see him in some upcoming episodes or films.❤
Love this guy! Thanks emgo :)
Yes, it’s my lucky day. I got his action figure Saturday or Sunday. I love pirates.
So i just got this guy. As cool as he is i really wish his hind legs had a locking tab for beast mode like voyager silverbolt has. Makes the alt mode feel more put together and cohesive. Its unfortunate because otherwise i like the figure.
Just waiting on the generations select Alpha Trizor repaint.
I swear that is silver bolt on the side art, my favorite fuzor after tigerhawk and also one of the hardest figures to find
One weird thing about this toy's alt mode is that it looks like Thundertron is arcing his back, like he's afraid or something...
Robert Rodriguez would be proud of the peg leg bloosh ha ha.
17:44 you are a pirate starts playing for some reason
He took notes from the Scottsman from Samurai Jack
Can we have a part tow ? just to see how that meeting went?
Just wondering, why didn't you show Skyquake or Dreadwing during the comparisons?
14:28 I'm dead, you killed me. I hope you're proud of yourself. There's blood coming out of my ears while I'm on the ground and foaming out the mouth.
It sucks that Hasbro can't used the Star-Seekers pirates in senson 3 of Transformers Prime they move to dragon of the Predacons instead at least some books help with Prime lores help but that toy look so cool.
11:37 & 14:28 - welp, there goes all the paint on his claws😬
Had to hold my laugh with that pegleg bloosh! It's 5:45 am, dude!
Maybe a thundertron retools into Optimus Prime in Red colour and new head sculpture.
Excellent video! All the best to you and yours Emgo. God bless! Wishing you a great day!
They missed out on an opportunity to do a Voltron reference with the sword being held in the tigers mouth in beast mode
Was that a thunder cats reference when you were showing the head?
If we ever see thunderstorm make a on-screen appearance I think the perfect casting for him and hear me out Bill Nighy what do you all think
you could post a video of you scraping thundertron on the table making it squeak, and i would still watch it.
14:28 This part of the video had me wincing but it was mad funny too
So, is Legacy Unite like Amanda where two transformers combined? So will Prime unite with bee? That's the vibe I'm getting.
Looks pretty good. Might have to pick this one up.
You killed me with that peg BLOOOSH!!! 🤣👍
8:10 Looks like Red Harrington from the Lone Ranger (2013)😂
Oh my God, the peg leg BLOOOOOSH was so damn funny xD
Ok.... painting a model and all of sudden hearing PEG LEG BLOOOOSSSHHHH... Is not a good combo.... I couldn't stop laughing!
Kinda get a polar claw vibe wonder if he started out as such
I so like him so much. I ordered him out of sheer nostalgia of not being able to get the original one. I was so excited for him.
How old does a transformer have to be to get fitted w a beard ? , cause Kup wasn't there yet.
What I would love to see but probebly wont ever happen is a transformers prime predaking figure in modern times maybe in a similar style to these figures.
There's no way they won't do Cyberverse Thunderhowl. This mold looks more like pretool with removed cool aspects of the original figure.
long john silver got an upgrade!
Legacy Thundertron is here!!!😊💙⚡️
Who else wants to see this mold get reused for Thunderhowl?
as soon as u said the head looked like alpha trion all i could think of was yyyooouuunngggg wwaarriiooorriiiooorrrss XD
ah yes i remember the old Transformers Prime toy, but even the character did not appear in the show
need to see Megatron's POV for the skit
why is his back plate removable?
Im gonna be honest, I was expecting either a joke with Marvelous or Zox lol
this figure almost screams cybertron leobreaker and on one hand i can see hasbro retooling this into that character and i would love to have more cybertron figures, on the other hand unless they add in parts formation there is no way to make this figure do savage claw mode and that is rather disappointing.
Thundertron uses thunder kick.
It is very effective.
Thunderous kick exists...
17:57 to 18:09 Once Thundertron tries to take Megatron's booty Megatron will have his booty.
Like many other fans, we know our lore and characters...yet this is the one character I know nothing about. I bought the older figure and know he's a pirate. I'm assuming from the comics. But I missed it and know nothing of him.
I could see a Leo Breaker remold out of this.
I hope hasbro makes a legacy united cybertron leobreaker
On the subject of "thunder"....why no Legacy Thunder clash or Thunderwing yet!?!☹
Has anyone actually said "We really need a new Thundertron"....?
The Peg Leggin' BLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHH!
UNITED begins!
