@@voidanderson202 The way that they hide the vehicle modes so smoothly within the robots, then no evidence of the robots at all in their alt. modes... there is some serious engineering necromancy going on there. LOL
kabuto I know that there’s a chain attached to Dragoon’s cannon. I was asking this dude if he meant “chain” instead of “hose.” They’re two different things. (Grammar Nazi, btw.)
PVP, that's not a Driller head, it's a body segment. If there's figures with more segments, you could plug them into each other and slowly build a driller
Another excellent review man. Hopefully UT produces more of this figure because I want to have one. This figure is absolutely beautiful. My favorite design ever for Megatron next to the IDW and original G1 design. Unique Toys' Dark Wizard has done it again with another solid design in transformation engineering and a beautiful look overall in both modes. Takara Tomy needs to get their s**t together. The MP-48 Lio Convoy which I'm very excited to have in my hands, and if that figure isn't solid and have QC issues; then I'm completely done with Takara Tomy's MP Transformers line in general, if they fail my most favorite character in MP form. I'll still support Takara Tomy's other lines like their Diaclone Reboot line, which I'm sure most of their best toy designers are at, because each release is solid and not much QC issues at all.
Obviously, from not having it in hand, I can't state with absolute certainty my opinion about the nature of the transformation. However, from what I can see, I find it intuitive and enjoyable, and certainly less complicated than Challenger (whose transformation is still way simpler than most and far better). This figure is so stunning and really does keep to their standard of "where did the alt mode go?". Fantastic video, indeed!
Megatron in the events between 2007 and 2011 was 35 feet in height. Since he took the body of Galvatron in 2014, he obtained a body that was 30 feet in height which then carried over to 2017 TLK upgrade but still in the same 30 foot tall body. There's debate around Optimus' height but he's around 28 feet tall. So Megatron originally was 7 feet taller, whereas now he's only 2 feet taller. So technically, this figure should be the smaller one compared to a 2007-2011 Megatron haha. Hope this makes sense regarding their scale 😊
The problem is that mpm Megatron and Optimus are too small compared with Bumblebee and Barricade so i think this one is good scaled with them. UT Optimus is also small and Lockdown is perfect
This guy to me is just like Challenger in the way that both their transformation seems really daunting when you watch it but after doing it yourself it become very easy. Still amazed at how clean UT can make their figures without being too complex.
Another Masterpiece review excellent job and thanks again for getting ahold of this and pointing out the crazy spots and the stuff you like! Keep up the excellent work and thanks again!
such a good review I definitely have to get my hands on this with my extra pocket money I don’t even see the light anymore I just watch videos about dragoon such a good review thanks 👌👌👌👍👍
Actually TLK Megatron stood at 30', meaning he should be shorter than the 33' 2007 Megatron. Granted that MPM Megatron is the official version and meant to scale with MPM Prime who is slightly too short. This was rectified in the upscaled Honey Badger KO, which is almost the same height as this Megatron.
Ok, these two head sculpt for Dragoon and Challenger are awesome looking. Plus I like how both faces are included in one head. I’ll sacrifice electronics for practically any day.
While the transformation is quite complex, it's still very impressive and from the looks of it, things aren't floppy and tolerances seem appropriately adjusted
Dragoon is actually painted from head to toe as I scratched mine on the canon. When transforming. Also I am not really impressed with the new prime head. I think it’s always nice to have options I don’t feel that it’s any better then the face already on the figure. Love the complex transformation. Right up my alley.
Just got this yesterday. Trying to find a good video showing the transformation steps and came across yours. You're a lifesaver. I can't be bothered to go through the hard to decrypt instruction manual for transformation 😅
@@PrimeVsPrime I've transformed it twice so far. It gets a while to get used to it, shd be ok once you get the hang of it. The trickiest is indeed the legs to form the wing, vice versa.
Alright that's a pretty impressive transformation but my god am I glad that you did it instead of me. that transformation looks so unfun I think I'd stop collecting if I had to do this.
See, HasBro should have made the Cockpit on the official release parts-forming. Make the majority of it a shield in exchange for a slimmer fusion cannon.
Thank you so much for liking my comment it means so much to me. I was wondering if during your reviews you could mention the average price of the figure? If would be helpful! Love ALL of your videos so fun to watch (and your voice is southing) 😂
I really think that this is cool. I love transformers figures myself and I am always watching reviews when I can to learn more about which ones to get. I think that this Megatron is by far, the best one anyone has made so far. I'm a fan of complex transformers figures, so that's no problem for me, and the size comparison... I think that it's fitting. I know prime wasn't ever really that far behind when it came to height from Megatron, but at the same time, Megatron is a jet... Prime is a truck... Still a size difference. But either way, great figure, great review.
Maybe with the release of the UT version of galvatron they added a new head for megatron with eyes turn red, and also starscream head a bonus for megatron to recreat that scene where he hold his head, at the junkyard.
apparently this megatron is supposed to be more in scale with toyworlds orion which is also another TLK optimus but with better paint apps and proportions.
Imo, this figure made the right sacrafices to make the best robot mode. I'm sure the complex leg transformation is due to trying to get a more streamlined leg shape.
Man seeing this figure makes think of what unique toys unicron would have been like on hand it breaks my heart that it got cancelled oh well at least theres predaking to look forward to.
I thought the true magic of their Lockdown, Optimus, and Hot Rod wasn't necessarily turning those vehicle modes SOMEHOW into those robot modes, which looked impossible, it was doing so with what looked to be pretty simple, intuitive, and fun transformations, which set Unique Toys apart from the rest of these companies which think you have to have complicated and hellish transformations to accomplish those feats, like that other company's age of extinction Optimus did. No, UT somehow made the process simple and intuitive which to me showed some intelligent engineering and forethought into the actual transformation experience, while still somehow working! Which was the true magic, and which sadly this Megatron doesn't seem to do very well. Though it is still impressive it can turn from that robot mode into that jet, don't get me wrong, but it does lack a bit of that Unique Toys wonder in the transformation department.
I've been looking forward to this figure so thanks for the review! I'm happy with the size and transformation but the knight/bot mode looks a bit 'soft' not aggressive enough, they seem to have rounded everything off a bit too much, his helmet is a good example, I'm not getting the angry brutal vibe that the Hasbro/Rensaurus figures give us and the unmasked face just looks really neutral and passive not evil at all. I hope this is just camera related illusion and he does look more aggressive in hand.
Rematch the Guardian Knight scene where Megatron and Nitro bomb Prime and Bee. When Megatron takes the staff from Prime while he’s down you can see a significant size difference. The scale is accurate
Megatron is huge compared to the Autobots like onslaught reaches a lil above his waist and drift reaches onslaughts waist which means drift will reach a lil bit higher than megatron's knee so we would need the 2007 sized deluxe figures to be perfectly scaled
Excellent review as always, IMO it's a bit too big for their scale and an angry face would have been far better than that "meh" face, do you think they will release a battle-damaged version?, that would look awesome, I think this version looks a bit too clean.
Unique toys is unbeatable in engineering. The only thing I’m not a huge fan of, is that UT’s details are kinda soft, there are very few panel lines. (That’s just a minor complaint, I absolutely love UT’s figures)
I definitely wanted this until I saw the size. It won’t scale with my mpm collection which is a bummer. He’s just way too big. It is a beautiful figure though
It's such a damn shame that he's so big. He's a full head too tall (if he were the same height as the MPM that'd be perfect). Dragoon and Challenger just don't look right next to each other. I'm hoping that what you say about it not being as bad in person is true, but I doubt I'll be satisfied with the height :( I just don't get why they wouldn't have just scaled him down by 10%.
This Figure is really Impressive But come to think of it .Its really kind of a wasted potential since they FINALLY get the design+Fusion Cannon right but only appears for like ุ6-7 minutes and suddenly get thrown out of the ship and never to be seen again.... ok //Back to Figure Once again very great looking piece from Unique toys i dont really bothered by the size I think its quite fitting" Also Great Review once again PrimeVsPrime!
Thanks for checking out my review of this awesome piece! Be sure to stick around until the end of the video for a full photo gallery :)

Yeah I wouldn’t mind if each component didn’t have an alt mode besides the limb component.
J-Sant Yeah, not every alt mode is a vehicle, or even a firearm, or...even logical.
I mean, Rung transforms into a freaking leg.
Realize that no one has included the chain/hose because it is hardly noticeable. Up until this point, I've never noticed that he had the hose.

Just out of astonishment, how long does it take you to learn and memorize a complex transformation sequence like that!?
Honestly this took id day about 3-4 hours in all, I transformed it back and forth multiple times so that the sequence in this video was clear :)
Amazing figure really good review
Megatron, the king of returning
That would be a really big driller and it will cost a whole lot of money
One thing I wish is that it included a nemesis prime head that will break the bad as bar
Rematch the Guardian Knight scene where Megatron and Nitro bomb Prime and Bee.
When Megatron takes the staff from Prime while he’s down you can see a significant size difference.
The scale is accurate
Megatron is huge compared to the Autobots like onslaught reaches a lil above his waist and drift reaches onslaughts waist which means drift will reach a lil bit higher than megatron's knee so we would need the 2007 sized deluxe figures to be perfectly scaled
The best movie megatron design
Excellent review as always, IMO it's a bit too big for their scale and an angry face would have been far better than that "meh" face, do you think they will release a battle-damaged version?, that would look awesome, I think this version looks a bit too clean.

The “battle axe” is actually a khonda sword. Just thought you’d like to know... that it is in fact a sword

I'm hoping that what you say about it not being as bad in person is true, but I doubt I'll be satisfied with the height :( I just don't get why they wouldn't have just scaled him down by 10%.
I'm sure you're way ahead in knowing about Black Mamba's current project that remedies that issue slightly. ;)
