The weapon storage for the spinning blade is mind blowing, this is what I call a transformers: the weapon transforms with the robot in the vehicle mode
Absolutely!
Blackout had by far one of the coolest designs in the Bayverse, wish they did more with his character
He really just should’ve survived the first movie and take grindor’s roll.
@@alc4528grindor is blackout but with different name. The proof is that grindor had stains all on his body because he had been rotten on the ocean with megatron, but when the others resurrected megatron with a piece of cube, some of the nearby transformers also got resurrected
@@Dont_Feed_FagHasbro confirmed they're different characters
In rise of unicron he’s coming back
@@QuintheQuesadillame when i make things up
Ok the fact that he has a waist swivel is amazing. Didn’t think they would manage to add one tbh. And the detail on the hands is insane.
Wow indeed!!
I’m sure that JobbyTheHong is gonna have a field day with that. 😂😂 SWIVEL here!
@@celestialspartan1176 I really hope he does a review of it!
@@celestialspartan1176 he's having fun in anime expo 2022
Starscream doesnt have swivel
I remember how insanely powerful Blackout was in the Transformers The Game from 2007.
Having a figure that does his character justice is a childhood dream come true.
Him and Scorponok in the Qatar desert level was my favorite. I used to spend so much time just free roaming as those two.
yeah that was epic. loved that game haha
I remember, it was one of THE first games I have when I persuaded my parents to buy me a PS2 back in 2010; Blackout was pretty fun
Bro blackout was an absolute powerhouse
He was such a monster because of the R2 cannon
The fact that his transformation creates a near perfect helicopter with undercarrage and everything, without being a super panely mess of a transformation, is astounding and should be commended.
I NEED THIS!!!!! 😱😱😱😱😱😱
I have waited 15 years for a proper Blackout figure!!! And this looks like the wait was SO WORTH IT!!!!
Absolutely agree! 10 years ago I could only dream we would get something this awesome
You have Wei Jiang .. Hide Shadow is way better than this
@@claudiodirico2756 I have Hide Shadow, and I think this looks way better
@@PrimeVsPrime if there’s one thing I wish this figure did was compress the fuel thingy so it doesn’t protrude so much. Other than that, this could look perfect with the old 2007 toyline alongside characters such as Leader Class Brawl
@@joshmiller7793 disagree but scale yes
Honestly might be the BEST MPM yet!! Both modes look amazing, no major QC issues, great paint, I think starscream has been dethroned as the best MPM
Best MPM figure? More like one of the best MP figures in general
THIS VERSION OF BLACKOUT IS WHY MORE detailed and has a lot of accessories
Hhmmm oh now i see well yes i do agree
well it is a masterpiece figure and along with being expensive its almost 1:1 movie accurate
"WHY MORE"
Idk if Transformers was micheal bays debut or not, but man was that movie incredible. The cgi was so ahead of its time, hearing and seeing the vehicles transform and become cybernetic badass robots as a kid is still in my head haha. Still stands to be one of my most favorite movies of all time. Slowly seeing toys develop and make the characters I know and love was really great, and this is such a nostalgic figure for me, amazing representation of the first deception we see in that awesome movie. Really hoping Rise Of The Beasts is good, i think I speak for all of us when I say I'm gonna be so upset if it's disappointing.
Transformers was far from the first film Michael Bay did, actually. His directorial debut would be the 1995 film Bad Boys, starring Will Smith. He also made other movies like The Rock in 1996, Armageddon in 1998, Pearl Harbor in 2001, and The Island in 2005 before directing the 2007 Transformers movie.
@@DavidHutchinson0713 oh wow ty for telling me! Was he well known for directing those movies like he was for Transformers?
@@dgotcookies He was famous for winning an award for his “Got Milk” commercial. Look it up. It’s real.
Bay did movies since 80s 😅😅😅😅😅@@DavidHutchinson0713
1:44 that's because this was originally gonna be soundwave and scoponok was supposed be ravage but fans didn't like the idea of Soundwave turning into a helicopter so they renamed him blackout and replace ravage with scoponok
I'm in the party of this design could have easily worked for Soundwave. His head is the decepticon symbol, he has a small bot inside him, and he produces emp's. All extremely fitting for Soundwave.
@@Jormyyy for sure!
@@Jormyyy yes and honestly it's the one who reminds the most of his G1 character.
I mean it's not much but compared to the rest
well..its better than turning into a car...
@@vibinseal I liked satellite Soundwave. Car Soundwave...meh.
The fact that this took a lot of inspiration from the Studio Series figure proves how great of a mold SS Blackout/Grindor was. Fantastic.
Damn, this is awesome. The masterpiece line has been pretty inconsistent since it's inception but this is for sure one of the stronger entries. The accuracy of the robot mode is definitely an upgrade over the studio series, eliminating a lot of the kibble. The articulation has been improved too. Impressively, the underbelly of the vehicle mode fills out completely, which is so rare to see with transformers but as a result it looks great from all angles. The transformation itself while having a lot of moving parts isn't over-engineered, and looks like a smooth and fun experience. I haven't bought any of the other mpm's besides starscream, but this one is a winner! Let's hope they can keep up the high quality releases for brawl and bonercrusher, and close the 07 movie bot chapter on a high note.
I agree! After a bumpy start they appear to be now going from strength to strength
While I agree that Blackout was not that good of a Studio Series figure (an arm on mine even snapped off, and he has a lot of stress marks), it was their first Leader entry into the line, and they had poor quality plastic. Studio Series have gotten better at their quality (not at accuracy though, Hasbro sucks)
But I wish Transformers Studio Series can 2.0 versions of the Studio Series live-action characters that can replicate from the movie masterpiece and eliminate kibble.
@@DeliveryWave I wanna see you try to release as many figures as they do and make them all effin MMC quality.
@@DeliveryWave arm snapped on mine too
Okay. It actually looks way better here than the promotional photos. In which rarely (if not never) do their figures any justice.
they need better photographer...😂
Yeah even the colour of those promo shots were massively off
@@PrimeVsPrime To be fair they stated several times that neither the colours nor the paint apps were final in those promos. Good to see so many people eating their initial knee jerks ;)
looks amazing, many similarities in the transformation but yes, it looks way better as the Studio Series and the transformation looks more refined and less flimsy. some day I want this guy, still like the Studio series Version
About his scaling with Megatron; Blackout is 33 feet tall, and Megatron at 34, only one foot taller. However in the movie Blackout appears to be a full 40 feet tall! He towered over Optimus & Megatron!
@Dan Young I read that Blackout & Grindor we’re supposed to be the same height. I know they’re the same helicopter; only difference is Grindor is a Super Stallion. But there are some discrepancies I’ve noticed throughout the movies. In T1 & T2 Iron Hide is half of Primes height. Maybe just a bit taller than Bumblebee. But pay attention to T3, Iron Hide is now huge like Optimus. He’s twice the height of Sideswipe!
13:56 OMG the masterpiece looks so amazing, absolutely blows the studio series out of the water!
EDIT: AND they managed to make a pretty darn realistic helicopter with undercarrage and everything, without being a complete mess of panels!
Holy crap, this thing looks even better than I was expecting it to! He’s perfect! Phenomenal review as always you absolute legend!
"Look like this!" vs "Look something a long the line of this". What a mouthfull!
The Sikorsky MH-53 pave low is a transport helicopter but instead of having guns under the wings they would typically mount an m2 browning .50 caliber machine gun on the loading ramp when not being used to transport small vehicles like hum-vs as well as any other military goods the two big things near the rotors are the engines that turn the turbines inside the helicopter that spin up the blades that jet sound when these start up/slow down are just two modified jet engines the fuel rod you did get kinda right it’s more of a probe that these types of helicopters would use to link up with a tanker in the air since these are used by mainly the navy and marine forces
What's even funnier is that currently, Sikorsky is making more money from the licensing for this MPM than they currently are for the IRL Helicopter, since the real life MH-53 was retired from service a year after the 2007 movie came out, and obviously Sikorsky isn't producing any more of them.
Great review! I've never been a fan of Masterpiece toys. But I'm planning to change that by getting MPM Blackout this year.
I missed out on both SS Blackout and Grindor, but he will fit in quite nicely.
This is TRULY a Masterpiece!
I received mine yesterday and I’m blown away at the engineering, articulation, paint, and transformation.
And you do, HANDS DOWN, the BEST guided transformations on TH-cam.
Thank you for this channel, I really appreciate what you do!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
That has got to be the greatest transformation I have ever seen. Absolutely beautiful
Haha yes very complex tho!
WOW WOW WOW! If anyone is still saying nonsense like "it's the same as studio series" or "OSKO is better" then this will probably shut them up! This looks like a true Masterpiece of a figure! The detail, posability and features are incredible.
such a damn good figure. can't wait man... can't wait!!!
I agree! Definitely the best MPM to date!
Osko?
@@crabking9223 over sized knock off
Wow, 15th anniversary! I saw the movie in theaters and I feel old. This figure looks AWESOME! The underside panels hiding the robot and the mini scorpion are super cool. Definitely wanna get this, great review! 👍🏻👍🏻
i have grindor and wejiang. pretty happy with both. i love that the mp can finally cover the bottom with no seperate parts. brilliant engineering. only wished it was as big as wejiang version. but i got to add this guy to my collection.
Holy shit what a satisfying transformation. The implementation of the weapon into the rotor blades is phenomenal
I went through three stages in this single video
Before watching:
“I don’t need it, I’ve got the WeiJang figure, that’s good enough”
During:
“Actually, that’s pretty good, I might sell the WeiJang figure.”
After seeing the size comparison:
“Ya’know, I can have both a Blackout and Grindor”
I have the WJ. Is this the same size in alt mode with the WJ I wonder though. It wasn't shown in the video..
@@imranbecks 15:44 ?
With how positive the comments about this figure is in person, really showcases how HasTak needs people that know how to take pictures.
Also many fans just made stupid comments that were barely based on the photos that were shown, or not even based on anything. As bad as hasbro's pics were, if you looked at them for more than two seconds you wouldn't be saying half the things people were saying.
Looks absolutely dope! Incredible accuracy and spot on in both modes! Incredible! 😁👌🏻 this was what was in my mind playing with the old voyager way back in 2007! Absolutely glorious! I've always loved his menacing design, presence, and the pave low as an actual helicopter! Super cool figure, man. Clean panels and even the rear ramp! My God!
Gotta be honest, the transformation is smooth and satisfying, For me at least, and robot mode fairly accurate, and Man.. that vehicle mode is a 10/10, Overall this cured my Depression from the previous, MP releases, there's still hope, this one's really worth the wait!
i think a lot of effort had put in to make this figure very movie accurate and really well detailed... i just think it's not a fun piece to play with... more of just a display piece...
thank the allspark i'm done with MP and MPM figures 😅
lmao
Agree, most MP and MPM are a pain to transform, but is the nature of a near perfect transformation toy that keeps the aesthetics of a near accurate cartoon / CGI model. To me the only transforming toys that have a perfect enjoyable transformation and show accurate representation are the Macross VF-1 from Arcadia & DX Chogokin.
And after seeing this chad i remembered the original voyager blackout & grindor figures.. boy, this was a long way.
You know what I always thought that the thing above his head was actually his head for some reason
Thank you for always being very reliable I do not know you situation but I respect the amount of effort you put in every day! 👏👏👏
Thank you very much!
Amazing figure, great video. Props for admitting you were wrong before about the legs, and for not abusing the phrase "attention to detail" this time :P
This guy is already impossible to find...
Looks great, can't wait to add him to the collection! Again, appreciate your reviews!
Blew my expectations away! Amazing review for describing this true masterpiece
Thank you so much!
Just bought MPM 13 at a Target in Virginia Beach for $165, they had 4 more on the shelf. I’ve seen the preorders go for $195 online.
Lucky!!! My local Target refused to let me buy it. 😔
I’m in the uk and got mine from an online toy retailer two weeks ago for £180 I think that’s about $215. Expensive but you can still get him, and imo worth it.
Great video and review! Will definitely be getting this figure! Best in the mpm line. But, what this figure really needed was 100 soldiers 50 full scale planes and jets, alot of vehicles and all 100 soldiers would be loose and articulated, and it needed to cost 1000000000000$ only for the paint to chip easily and half the joints to be loose.
That’s a regular masterpiece thing this is mpm
Just picked this up for 100 bucks brand new. God, is this awesome. Blackout was the only decepticon design I liked in the bay films. Well Grindor too for obvious reasons. This video convinced me to get my first ever Transformer figure as an adult. Thanks for the video!
This was my first masterpiece and i couldnt be happier. I love this figure so much.
Probably the best review I have seen on this figure , well done 👍
I'd love to see Allspark Power Evac in this mould. It would look stunning.
WOW.... I was not expecting this to be good from the early pics. He's actually a great figure! Can't wait until Black Mamba releases their version of this. Sorry but I'm addicted to their superior paintwork!
Impressive! Too fiddly for me but some of those transformation tricks were very cool, like weapon storage. Great review!
Next we need mpm Brawl and Bonecrusher and i wish they give us mpm longarm and the dunebuggys for the bots
This looks times over better than the stock images. Tho I do think he is small even by the standard MPM scale let alone KO upscales. I probably will wait for the KO but the official is going to be very hard not to pickup anyway !
amazing review, still not a big fan of the paint job and the feet of this guy, but not as bad as i expected, good review
I just always wonder where do Transformers get ammo and does it run out ? Great video Blackout looks so real.
Do we have an estimated release date? I'm sure it's posted somewhere in here. Bought Hide Shadow this year. Great figure. May use him for Grindor and use the MP for Blackout. Both beautiful figures.
When the hell does this thing release!?!? I have looked all over the Internet and I can't find a single date for the release.
Dang this is amazing...
All Michael Bay Designs are so good they really look from the other worlds...
Deceptions design are so good.
In your defense, the hasbro always pose their figures for official product images like they have parkingson’s. 70% of the time they’re mistransformed and 90% of the time the figure looks like dog water from official product shots.
hahaha yeah, kinda ironic since it's also hasbro that designed this
Haha true - plus the colour of this guy in hand is completely different to the promo shots
I. Need this. NOW!!! I missed out on the Original Studio Series Leader, so I'm over-the-top excited to get this guy!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
If you also want the SS version its in stock on big bad toy store and at some stores
@@therailfanman2078 actually just to let you know, I'm an Indian!! So I couldn't afford it.
@@pikarangerautobot9780 oh, damn
great video love your content
Literally almost spit my food seeing this get uploaded, I had no idea they were even making a masterpiece Grindor/ blackout
My only grip he is kinda small but
damn well detailed....They nailed it!
I've never bought a transformer before but blackout was my favorite from the movie and this looks amazing! Where's the best place to buy this? Also I see it doesn't come out til December, is this a really early review copy?
i need this asap ahh amazing review and now am watching 2007 film again now
This fig is amazing, I need one, btw his head looks a lot like Grindor from ROTF, still undeniably great head sculpt and the attention to detail, overall 10/10 for me
Definitely something I add to my Christmas wish list. I have such a big need one reflex right now. The same I had with the SS version, which was my first figure I pre-ordered.
It would make for an awesome Xmas gift!
Are you new in collecting?
I find it neat how they use some techniques from the SS blackout
Absolutely fantastic!! It's actually VERY different from the SS version, and much better too, which frankly seemed impossible. I gotta comment on the ugly yellowing on Hide Shadow, my figure had the same even though it was in storage...
My Hide Shadow has yellowed really bad
I sold mine a year ago in preparation for this figure. Im glad I did
It's simply beautiful. I've always loved my SS version and the KO WeiJiang so I'm getting one of these and my guess is I'll hear about a release date on this channel?
Another great review - thanks so much! I too was skeptical about this guy, and thought the SS versions were darn good, and the Wei Jiang was incredible, but they were absolute nightmares to transform. I like what they've done here to make changes to the transformation. Though not short and simple, it seems like it would be easier to follow ND accomplish than the SS versions.
I have the Wei Jiang version that I bought when it first came out which is an upscaled version of the SS Blackout. I really like the one I have but on my copy, the hip skirts, back of the feet, and at the knees have all turned from grey to a brownish color. I’ve posted pics on Twitter of my copy, I hope this one doesn’t have any of the same issues after 3yrs.
Awesome! but also shows how impressive the Studio Series is; especially considering the huge price disparity.
Thank you for this amazing review
any pictures next to the original blackout figure? been waiting since 07 for this beast!
Man, I picked this guy up on Amazon for an awesome discount recently. I’m a huge fan of Bayverse Transformers and I have literally all the Bayverse studio series in my collection of Transformers. This is my first experience with MPM and holy cow I’m in love with this figure. I love my Blackout studio series but this MPM is just amazing.
propper hands, waist swivel and better feet, they took the studio series and just pressed ''upgrade''
the inclusion of the sentry gun is so cool!
I’m probably going to buy this figure and use him as a grindor on my studio series shelf
Honestly one of my favorite Bayverse Decepticons. Even with the chicken legs, he looked so badass and intimidating. I also really loved his Sikorsky MH-53 Pavelow helicopter alt mode. I for one can't wait to have the figure in my hands.
This guy is gonna look amazing with my MPM Megatron and Barricade
I agree! Definitely the brute of the team!
I'm speechless. Such an amazing figure. When is it available? must have this masterpiece of Blackout🤤
@Declan Harbeck whenever it does come out, good luck getting, it’s a Target Exclusive
i m waiting for it too
@Declan Harbeck Same can't wait to get this figure shouldn't be too hard seeing that Target usually carries lots of moms and sometimes even discounts them.
Why is that a target exclusive?🙄
I'm in Germany but I have studio series Leadfoot (got it from amazon, for the standard price) and this was definitely a traget exclusive. I hope I get Blackout..
@@julian_hsv not sure why, I just hoping it releases down here in Australia
Wow new intro :))
Sounds coll bro
Keep it up!
Haha thank you!
Love the transformation, especially the arms.
Now that is amazing, the engineering is complex but not complicated, very accurate, and just plain fun one of the best transformers figures period, the very 1st decepticon that i like now just has one of the best figures ever
And to velieve that i got the SD Grindor and thought that was excellent, seeing this one really raised the bar and probably the definitive version
What is the scale of the helicopter mode- would it be 1/18? Looking to get for gi joes
This kinda reminds me of the studio series transformation but i love the they integrated the tail rotor in the transformation and the underside is smooth en not a bunch of pieces like the studio series
This is a certified 'helikopter helikopter' classic
the kibble monster is here in masterpiece form, and he's here with a bang. They honestly did a great job with him
The Moment we’ve all been waiting for and his name is Blackout
Really impressive figure. So much work would go into designing these.
He already wins for me, because he has a waist rotation.
Ikr!! Definitely a massive improvement
I appreciate the Voyager Optimus comparison for Grindor
jazz is the good one in mpm but this guy is amazing I like the arms one the detail so good
I only wish Scorponok was bigger, the chest cannon was bigger and the the backpack was a little more compressed (just a little).
But othet than that 9.5/10
First and nice bro and how are you doing bro are you going to get the cang toys predaking/thunderking
I have the Wei Jiang, and am happy with it, although, an upscale ko version of the MPM which will most likely come would be a welcome upgrade.
Has your copy not yellowed yet? Mine yellowed on the hip skirts, knee guards, and the back of the feet.
Damn...this might be the first master piece I will get. Blackout was one of my favourite transformer from the movie.
That transformation is absolutely brilliant!
This is so awsome it makes me want to get it and he looks even better then over size
I'm sold I've been a huge fan of Blackout I've been wanting a proper figure for over a decade
Me too! This is definitely a dream item! 🤩
He would make a good studio series Grindor. Can’t wait to buy the ko.
if it is perfectly version of blackout, i definitely wont buy the ko version😂
Masterpieces Barricade, Megatron, Starscream, and Blackout. All we need is Brawl and Bonecrusher.
Can a studio series car fit in the back? Would be kool to be able to put Barricade inside.
Cómo carajo consigue las figuras muchos meses antes de su lanzamiento??
