I don't know how you still manage to make me laugh with your closing skits after all these years, but you do! Also, your reviews are still the best anywhere. Your videos always brighten my day. Thanks for the years of smiles you've brought your audience.
@@moltenamber85 Yeah I would kill for an Ultra Pachyderm and Edgy Pachyderm. Although with Polar Claw there is the chance of getting an Ursa Magnus. Alongside Survive and Barbearian.
Me, 1 hour ago: "Wow, I got a Transformer in hand before Emgo put up a review of it. That never happens!" (This is a compliment. You are a MACHINE putting out quality videos this quickly and consistently. Maddest of mad respect to you, sir!)
I got my copy about two weeks ago and with no reviews up, I had to figure out how to transform him using the instructions and I'm not exactly impressed by the instructions at times because they aren't clear as they could be!!
I've had a soft spot for Magmatron ever since they brought the toy over as an extension of Beast Machines. Sadly, one of the thumbs on the original broke due to how the sword (which doubled as a rifle) had to go into the hand - which, thank Primus, it looks like they redesigned. They redesigned a LOT for the Legacy version, and as wild as the first version was, the new design is even crazier. And I love it - I've had a preorder in since soon after they announced it, and I'm looking forward to getting mine in-hand. Thanks as always for the review! (Even when I already know what I'm getting, the advance look is awesome!)
I'm honestly surprised how amazing this figure turned out. I was expecting either horrible belly kibble or really bad dinosaur proportions, but Hasbro did an incredible job with the transformation engineering
Even if I don’t plan on getting the figure myself I still watch Emgo’s reviews for em to show my support for him… and for the opening and ending skits lol
This set reminds me of that episode of "Challenge of the Gobots" called "Destroy All Guardians" when Japanese scientists in Tokyo brought 3 prehistoric monsters a Tyrannosaurus Rex, a Pteranodon, and an Elasmosaurus to life which Cy-Kill captures to mutate them into kaijus, put them under mind control and set them loose to destroy Earth which Leader-1 and the Guardians fight to stop them.
Man, this is the figure I've been excited for the most out of all of the current Legacy stuff! I was so worried when it was first revealed that the Magmasaurus mode wasn't going to be included, but I'm glad they did include it. I know what you're thinking, I'm weird for liking the half-baked alternate modes that the toy designers cook up, but I find there's a certain charm to these things lol. The Magmasaurus mode was also treated as Magmatron's primary alternate mode in most of the Japanese media he originated from, while the individual beast modes were treated as secondary alternate modes, for whatever reason. From all of the cartoon model sheets I can find online, it appears that they didn't even bother fully designing his other three beast modes for the cartoon. They just gave those modes some basic lineart and called it a day. Whatever the reasoning was behind that decision, he spent the majority of the cartoon in robot mode and only transformed for certain battles.
Watching you do the land said transformation I was mind blown cus I had the originals conversion in my mind, awesome figure!!! Can’t wait for mine to arrive
"Gigantosaurus" lmao. Its Giginotosaurus. Which would actually have had a larger skull but smaller teeth than ol' T-rex. He failed to pronounce all 3... and likely does not know what they are.
Those dino modes were some real transforming witchcraft. I remember this guy back from comics from around the time the first bay movie came out so the nostalgia is really hitting me in the wallet here
My headcanon is that Landsaurus is Beast Wars Megatron and Airsaurus is Terrasour. They just couldn't combine into Magmatron without Seasaurus, so nobody made mention of it.
Due to the components to make three, I believe that each bot would be a deluxe, voyager, and leader that make a commander class Prowl and Ram Horn as Deluxe Silverbolt and Cicadacon as Voyagers Ironhide and Sea Clamp as Leaders
@@MarcosVelasquez-Sanchez I feel like Cicadacon fits being the Deluxe more since he does basically the same thing as Prowl, fold into himself to form the core of the torso and head while Ramhorn needs more complexity due to forming both of the arms of Tripredacus, heck he could be the Leader considering all Sea Clamp does to form the legs of Tripredacus is do a hand stand basically while Ramhorn fits with Ironhide with how they're the most complex of their combiner teams.
@@kendiaz89 Makes sense Prowl and Cicadacon as deluxe Silverbolt and Ram Horn probably between voyager or leader Ironhide and Sea Clamp as leaders All of this makes sense as what I said before
Oh I can’t wait to get mine I own the Neo Magmatron and as soon as I heard that we’re getting a Legacy Magmatron I knew I have to get my hands on it and add to my Legacy collection I absolutely love all the forms of Magmatron and I like Magmatrons Magmasaur form. Magmatron is my absolute personal favourite of all the Predacons.
I cant wait to see what upgrades companies come up for this one. All I know I I don’t collect mainline stuff but this makes me wanna start again especially since this shows up that magnaboss and tripredicus is possible.
DNA is gonna make a killer kit for this guy. A new sword, better shield mounting system, seasaur neck gap fillers, and SOMETHING to help with those robot mode hip pieces would be nice.
The last combined mode kinda reminds me of The Chimera with the 3 heads a lion head on the front, the goat head on the back, and a snake head on the end of its tail
I really wish these were packed in dino mode. My fave part of many of your reviews is when there's parts-forming. "what!!?! Parts-forming????? Shhhh shhh shhh" 🤫🤫🤫☝️☝️☝️
Emgo, I just wanna say that 2 months later and this has really helps my (specifically with the sword going into Landsaurus(Gigantosaurus) because the Instructions make no sense. Thank you.
Fantastic figure. the two things i dont like about it is the hip skirts. they get in the way of his arm articulation =( and the port location on his arm for his shield being on the back of his arm instead of the side. Great review!!
Looking at the combined beast(?) mode(?) and remembering that Cybertronians are an intelligent race of beings (for the most part, looking at you Dinobots) and wondering why you would ever choose to turn into something as visually catastrophic as that.
Well, I thought I gave up the preorder....ended up getting him. I actually like him. Didn't think I was going to like the beast mode but I had to mess around with a bit. The instructions could be better to show what clips where. The pterodactyl actually plugs into the back. Overall, the beast mode is pretty squozen. Just mess around a bit.
I like to cut time where I can when I know vids are gonna run long. I gave his measurements so you can extrapolate from that how it’ll scale with whatever you want,
So who else is hoping that hasbro will release the other members of magmatron’s team. If they do they will be connecting with another group of the fandom that doesn’t get as much attention as they deserve. Because their was so many good characters in that show that would benefit from updated legacy figures.
I have no interest in that figure but I'll buy it, keep the purple blast fx because I've been wanting some in that color for ages, and probably sell the figure afterwards.
Oh btw. I was playing with my copy of this guy and that tab in his waist actually snapped clean off in the socket directly above it preventing me from transforming him. Is that something that you talked about? Because I'm gonna be returning my original one and getting a new one and hopefully not do what I did to cause that to happen.
I love how the flying portion is essentially a headmaster.
Yeah, pretty much 👍🏼
Head on!
But a Dino headmaster the evolve version of a head master
I don't know how you still manage to make me laugh with your closing skits after all these years, but you do! Also, your reviews are still the best anywhere. Your videos always brighten my day. Thanks for the years of smiles you've brought your audience.
Thanks so much 😊🙏🏼
Q: What shampoo does Magmatron use?
A: Head & Shoulders😂
My wife referred to the combined alt mode as "the dino-centipede" and now I can't not display it that way...
here lets make it worse: THE DINO ORGY MODE
@@arrwen0885 that’s all anyones been calling it 🤣🤣🤣 I just call it chimera formation or something
@@terogates1I call it chimera mode
I'm hoping Big Conoy's tusk on the packaging was a teaser and not a Polar Claw situation. I'd love to have both Magmatron and Mammoth Prime
With Big Convoy, we can get Ultra Mammoth AND the original incarnation of Nemesis Prime.
@@moltenamber85 that's the biggest hope I have for legacy so far. I want a mammoth army
@@moltenamber85 Yeah I would kill for an Ultra Pachyderm and Edgy Pachyderm. Although with Polar Claw there is the chance of getting an Ursa Magnus. Alongside Survive and Barbearian.
I would love to get big Convoy in a future wave of figures and I would be able to make the convoy council with Optimus Prime and Optimus Primal
I’m having if there is big convoy, he’s commander class too

Same I ordered mine a while back
Chimera mode from the older toy actually looks more cohesive. But still can't wait to mess around with the new figure

Fun Fact: Magmatron separate three Dinosaurs mode motif of Giganotosaurus, Elasmosaurus and Quetzalcoatlus
Thanks for the awesome Fun Fact, G1 Grimlock
You welcome
So he's huge then 😂
Honestly I saw the yellow of your profile picture and thought it was pikachu
Quetzal just sounds like a prehistoric pretzel
We are in a new golden age of transformers designs. This team is incredible.

The bird is pronounced Ket-zull-koh-at-luss
ALSO I finally figured out why the combined animal mode looked familiar........ it's a dinosaur Chimera
I’ll still never be able to pronounce it lol
@@emgo316 Google is your friend.
Hey who needs to pronounce things when he puts out quality and entertaining toy reviews lol
It's actually more of Keh-tsal-ko-at-lus. Its name references a Nahuatl (the people of the Aztec empire) god, Quetzalcoatl.
It's pronounced "Interior Crocodile Alligator".
This probably the best dinosaur mode ever from Transformers toy and finally correct wrist position.
Wow, when Hasbro wants, they are able to do some fine stuff! ALL THOSE RATCHET JOINTS!!!
Optimus looking at Magmatron: "Ok M...M...OH C'MON! THAT'S JUST PRIME!!! I'm leaving!"
Even if I don’t plan on getting the figure myself I still watch Emgo’s reviews for em to show my support for him… and for the opening and ending skits lol
FEAR ME!!! How many villains qout that line over the years, I ask you?!
LOL!!!
While you were disassembling Magmatron into his three dinosaur pieces. Johnny 5 was in my head saying "Disassemble!! NO Disassemble!!!"
This set reminds me of that episode of "Challenge of the Gobots" called "Destroy All Guardians" when Japanese scientists in Tokyo brought 3 prehistoric monsters a Tyrannosaurus Rex, a Pteranodon, and an Elasmosaurus to life which Cy-Kill captures to mutate them into kaijus, put them under mind control and set them loose to destroy Earth which Leader-1 and the Guardians fight to stop them.
The magmasaurus kinda looks like Skysaurus passed out while using the other two dinos as a couch.
🤣
Should've named the three dinosaurs Gigatron (purple), Elasmo (green) and Que (red)
The Skysaurus's configuration in the combined Magmasaurus form looks like it's prepared for the wrong things...
Man, this is the figure I've been excited for the most out of all of the current Legacy stuff!

Come Wednesday, I am gonna try to get him.
Also the Q dino is pronounced "ketz-el-koh-awt-luss"
"Gigantosaurus" lmao. Its Giginotosaurus. Which would actually have had a larger skull but smaller teeth than ol' T-rex. He failed to pronounce all 3... and likely does not know what they are.
"Four heads are better then one" and yet all four of them are sharing the same brain.
He's by far the favorite one of mine this year, I have two, one to play with and the other kept in the box
Those dino modes were some real transforming witchcraft. I remember this guy back from comics from around the time the first bay movie came out so the nostalgia is really hitting me in the wallet here
The combined beast mode thing is the most 90s thing ever, I love it.
My headcanon is that Landsaurus is Beast Wars Megatron and Airsaurus is Terrasour. They just couldn't combine into Magmatron without Seasaurus, so nobody made mention of it.
Beat me to it. 'cause that how I plan to add him in my collection as well. Except seasaurus will be a new character named seaspray.
Gimme a commander class Magnaboss and Tripredacus now
Due to the components to make three, I believe that each bot would be a deluxe, voyager, and leader that make a commander class
Prowl and Ram Horn as Deluxe

Makes sense
Prowl and Cicadacon as deluxe
Silverbolt and Ram Horn probably between voyager or leader

Looks great. Was hoping to get a weird return to the skit from the original, but enjoyed this as well. 😂
Definitely getting this.

Great review. I just got Magmatron in the mail today and I love it. I agree with the flimsy sword could be way better.
This is definitely in the "gods I wish I could justify this but I have things I actually need for the house" bucket.
DNA is gonna make a killer kit for this guy. A new sword, better shield mounting system, seasaur neck gap fillers, and SOMETHING to help with those robot mode hip pieces would be nice.
This figure should be in the top five from Hasbro, if not number one.
The last combined mode kinda reminds me of The Chimera with the 3 heads a lion head on the front, the goat head on the back, and a snake head on the end of its tail
can't wait to add this guy to my collection will look amazing with my other beast wars figures.
This guy's massive size and perfect face really make me sad that TM2 Megatron didn't get the same.
I really wish these were packed in dino mode. My fave part of many of your reviews is when there's parts-forming. "what!!?! Parts-forming????? Shhhh shhh shhh" 🤫🤫🤫☝️☝️☝️
Imo the 90’s version takes the credit for dino orgie form, but the legacy version slays in other two forms
Emgo, I just wanna say that 2 months later and this has really helps my (specifically with the sword going into Landsaurus(Gigantosaurus) because the Instructions make no sense. Thank you.
Fantastic figure. the two things i dont like about it is the hip skirts. they get in the way of his arm articulation =( and the port location on his arm for his shield being on the back of his arm instead of the side. Great review!!
I just noticed Big Convoy's tusk is shown on the box. Maybe they'll do a Leader Big Convoy in the future.
I can never stop laughing when a robot mode head is popping out of a crotch. See also that Rodimus Prime generations from years ago
I can only imagine Legacy doing their take on Beast Wars Neo Heinrad
I love the combined beast mode, can’t wait to fight it in the new monster hunter game
"GET WILD!"
Looking at the combined beast(?) mode(?) and remembering that Cybertronians are an intelligent race of beings (for the most part, looking at you Dinobots) and wondering why you would ever choose to turn into something as visually catastrophic as that.
Well, I thought I gave up the preorder....ended up getting him. I actually like him. Didn't think I was going to like the beast mode but I had to mess around with a bit. The instructions could be better to show what clips where. The pterodactyl actually plugs into the back. Overall, the beast mode is pretty squozen. Just mess around a bit.
29:04 That might be one of the combine modes of all time
If I had to guess, they opted to not use a ball joint due to the weight of his “ears”. They would have really worn it out sadly
I had no idea this Magmatron guy existed but this thing is so cool, I have to get it
The Chimera mode (Magmasaurus) was always weird
I’m haven’t seen the Legacy Beast Wars II version of Galvatron.
Just got my Magmatron in from Hasbro Pulse and I’m loving him! :3
He really gets ahead in life. 😂
We need a new magnaboss next. I may have to keep this in dino mode.
Been so waiting for this guy.
28:40 every time I see this mode it just reminds me of the prison scene in Hancock
Easy pronunciation, skysaur, landsaur, and seasaur
I wish they make his counterpart soon 🥰🥰🥰
You mean a Maximal version of Magmatron?
28:07 be like place the red prehistoric chicken on back on the larger prehistoric chicken and sea reptile and plug in everything
I hope they do Galvatron/unicron, blendtrons, and more of the beast wars neo and machices like jetstorm tankor and obsidian
At least you did a transformation for magmasaurous this time round.
You forgot to demonstrate how the blade hilt doubles as a blaster that can BLOOOOOOOOOSH!!!
I showed that
@@emgo316 do you have a time stamp for it? I can’t find it.
8:29 I showed that effect parts can plug into the hilt.

This guy is so bonkers conceptualy that I had to get him.
Commanders are no joke peak.
Absolute peak. (except rodimus)
The last mode looks like they're having, you know.
I think the combined alt mode looks like a chimera
Landsaur : Giga-Not-O-saurus
Seasaur: Elaz-mo-saurus
Skysaur: Quet-zal-co-at-lus
I would’ve liked to see comparisons to other commander classes like Menasor, Sky Lynx, Jetfire, Ultra Magnus, and Rodimus
I like to cut time where I can when I know vids are gonna run long. I gave his measurements so you can extrapolate from that how it’ll scale with whatever you want,
Somehow I manage to find this at a GameStop of all places. 25% off including a $5 coupon with my pro account. No regrets whatsoever.
So who else is hoping that hasbro will release the other members of magmatron’s team. If they do they will be connecting with another group of the fandom that doesn’t get as much attention as they deserve. Because their was so many good characters in that show that would benefit from updated legacy figures.
FYI to emgo316, Exchange Students also need to poo 😂
The thing I never understood is why skysaurus has 3 sets of hands in robot mode
Could you imagine if they gave all 3 dinosaurs there own robot mode along Side the main robot mode
He’s a much bigger than the Beast Wars version of Megatron.
What do you say when you try to sneak past the elasmosaurus with your friends?
Do you think the seasaurus saw us?
;P
And The Giganotosaurus is main villain of Jurassic World Dominion
Not sure how a 3rd party upgrade is gonna open his mouth more but I’m sure one will find a way
I have no interest in that figure but I'll buy it, keep the purple blast fx because I've been wanting some in that color for ages, and probably sell the figure afterwards.
Tbh I kinda want to get this now 🤔🤔. The animal transformers have never really done anything for me but this looks sick
Was Shockwave drunk, when he made that last batch of Entergon?
Oh btw. I was playing with my copy of this guy and that tab in his waist actually snapped clean off in the socket directly above it preventing me from transforming him. Is that something that you talked about? Because I'm gonna be returning my original one and getting a new one and hopefully not do what I did to cause that to happen.
This feels like an evil megazord
Honestly, this figure made me finally break and pay for robot kingdom's shipping costs.
Magmatron looks good
Do you have Cang Stegsarow? I can't wait for its video
Yes
Spark crystals?! *insert fangirl squeal here*
Oh wow a dinosaur style chimera
now we just need a new big convoy toy
I don't like this kind of separate deformation design, I prefer the overall deformation design. But it's a really good combination.
Combined magmasaurus If the human centipede doctor moved to Cybertron
Revice prepared us for this.
I think we need more spark crystals. I miss that weird aesthetic choice
