Mine's arriving this Thursday! I'm SO glad this shipped out earlier than the estimated date! I never owned the original one from the 90's, and I am not going to pay a ridiculous aftermarket price for it, so this one will be more than sufficient! Can't wait to get it in hand!
Hopefully Legacy Transmetal Meagtro will not suffer from GPS (Gold Plastic Syndrome), like his original Beast Wars counterpart, if it were to be released.
@@pessie83The last known case of GPS was in 2015 with Takara Unite Warriors Motormaster figure, so i think that we doesn't need to worry about GPS anymore...
@@PlatinumPaladin We recently got some gold plastic figures (like Generations Selects Black Zarak and Black Roritchi) and AFAIK there's no reports about GPS with these figures.
I like the figure, but would have prefered if they avoided the hollowness in the wings, with Galaxy Prime wasn't a big problem because the hollowness is on the back, but with Tigerhawk is harder to overlook in robot mode. Even so I'm glad Hasbro is bringing some of the most prominent Fuzors into the Legacy line.
I love his colors finally correct purple instead of the cobalt blue on the vintage one. I do miss the firing wings and cannons on the original and the feet that have springs, but I do think this toy looks more accurate. His robot face especially is so spot on !!! So glad they got rid of the weird mask thing on the original toy. He never had that in the show and it always bothered me loL
YOU JUST KNOW some Chad is gonna make the battle mask for him and clearly wing fillers. Im still hoping for a decent Nova Prime wing fix that is not 3d printed.
This version, or the toy accyrate version, or Universe Razorclaw? With enough patience and the right sales, I get more than 1, but that feels greedy. Gotta decide which one I get my friends and which I keep for me.
03:25 If you loosen the screw on the side of the tiger head it decreases the amount of friction at the shoulder. This subsequently decreases the risk of accidentally detaching the arm from the transformation tab when moving Tigerhawk’s arm down.
I love how similar his transformation is to the original figure, with some new twists of course. I'd like to imagine Tigerhawk uses the litterbox from above.
United Tigerhawk's beast head has a strange unused slot. I'm thinking if we get a Razorclaw repaint out of him, that might include the bird helmet (Since he actually used it in the comics) It also means that if any company does an upgrade kit for him, they have an easy way to incorporate it.
I'm kinda hoping they do the black Razorclaw recolor at some point as the original was one of my first transformers and is the only pre-2018 figure that I still have (lost the rest or they might be in boxes somewhere)
I still have my original Tigerhawk, although one of the feet broke off be all of the missiles disappeared. Can’t wait to get this version to replace my original
Got my Tigerhawk today. Only issue is that one of the claws on the robotic robot mode foot is too long, and scrapes against the leg cavity in transformation.
Oh I can’t wait to get my hands on the Legacy TigerHawk I never owned the original one but I’ll be really really excited when I can add the Legacy TigerHawk to my collection.
My old friend had the OG 2000s Universe Razorclaw figure which IMO was incredible at the time and I loved it, hope they actually repaint him in to Razorclaw. But this new figure is pretty cool, and I do enjoy his Transformation.
I love him em go he’s real beefy and his transformation was technical and he has a lot of accessories for a beast wars member and I’m now excited for magmatron … he’s also a real leader class size !
The feathers supposed to be a sword, but on hand it looks like it's a fabulous handheld decoration... Jokes aside, glad that Hasbro waited to do the maximals so their designers/engineers have hone their skills. The collapsing torso is almost third party like. Sadly I couldn't collect transformers figures anymore, the price is just insane today, compared to 5 years ago when I'm still actively collecting. Thankfully I still have these videos to appreciate how toy engineering have progressed.
Just got mine today and he's pretty badass. I do want to see some wing fillers as an upgrade kit - it seems like an obvious thing to do, so I doubt it'll take long.
I can't believe you didn't compare Tigerhawk's beast mode with Transmetal II Megatron's dragon mode after that epic aerial battle they had toward the end of "Beast Wars"!
Definitely gonna get this figure as soon as possible. Need him to put next to my TM2 Megs. Speaking of, are you planning on getting the oversized knockoff of Legacy TM2 Megs by Black Mamba? I saw it yesterday morning, and I gotta say, it has piqued my interest. Also, I highly recommend you get Mechanical Skull Studio's MSS-01 Sirius Armada Star Scream.
Got this guy right before Xmas. It's funny. It seems so obvious now that I watched your review vs others, but flipping up that panel on the beast head in beast mode...no other reviewer even mentioned that at all. And I'm embarrassed to admit even I didn't think of doing that to let him move his head up in that mode. The figure has some bizarre engineering decisions like the robot head not being able to look up and the wrists not even having swivels, but hopefully DNA designs comes up with something for this like a new back half of the head and hands since I just noticed they're only held in by friction hinges.
I am so excited for this figure. I was never able to get the original, considering I was only three when it was released. I really hope they repaint this guy into Razorclaw from the universe line.
An issue I have with this figure that I see nobody else talk about is the proportions being off. He’s just too bulky in the chest area. Like they kept everything else the correct size, but because the cheats is too big, it makes his arms, legs, and especially hands look way too small. I know a lot of the Beast Wars figures in Kingdom 1 to 1 to their on screen appearance, but Tigerhawk and Scorponok really feel like misses.
I can write two paragraphs on this. I'll simply say if someone can manage to take this apart and airbrush it & get it back together I'd like the look more.
The proportions of the original seem a lot more imposing, in both modes. I don't think HasTak understood the assignment in updating the emissary of the Vok.
I don't like Beast Wars all that much and this just looks like a strange mess but what I would like to know is why go from blue on the original figure to purple on the Legacy United one?
I know that Tigerhawk is a fusion of the two, but I would love to see a graduation skit where Airazor and Tigatron are so proud of their baby boy going off to college.
I mainly want this guy to go with my Transmetal 2 Megatron. Since there aren't really any new Beast Wars figures that go with it (Maybe POTP Optimal Optimus. But I honestly don't think he's worth it) Also, I had the original TM2 Megatron while my cousin had Tigerhawk. We use to play with those two figures all the time.
Can’t wait for mine to arrive next week. They’re gorgeous! Tho, I agree, I’d like fillers for the wings and guns, if not new guns, and maybe a Battle Mask for Beast Mode, too.
Great figure, but the only thing better than the original is a little more articulation. And the original still has pretty satisfying articulation IMO and is better in every other way. Crazy how good the first release was!
Crazy that he still does the exact same intros as he did 10 years ago when I first watched his videos
If it ain't broke don't fix it
@@chrisramshur938 true, and it makes me a bis nostalgic cause I was in primary school when I started watching his vids and now I already finished school
@@DerDean_HDsame!! I’m a senior now and remember being in grade school watching these!!
When you find a formula that works, don't change it. Just ask Coca Cola.
And he advertises his EmGames channel still even tho he hasn’t uploaded to it in over 8 years
I love those transformations where you basically unravel the entire toy and then roll it back up differently
I like how both Tigerhawk and TM II Megs feature transformations in which they lodge their heads firmly up their butts.
Okay the Silverhawks reference alone deserves a like and subscription...if I wasn't already subscribed.
I was searching to see if anyone picked up on that intro reference ❤
Aah yes my favorite character that lasted like 2 and a half episodes
“I am Tigerhawk, emissary of the Vok.

No kidding! Cost about $200-$300 on eBay.
9:58 general grievous mode lol
Tigerhawk goes to the bathroom using the power of CLOACANNONS.
Bloosh, indeed!
I'm wondering now if we'll get a Legacy Transmetal Megatron in his T.Rex form and then a Legacy Quickstrike.
Hopefully Legacy Transmetal Meagtro will not suffer from GPS (Gold Plastic Syndrome), like his original Beast Wars counterpart, if it were to be released.

@@svartmetallyst7712 I dunno. 2015 is pretty recent considering it's been an issue for decades.

Love the saying that mascot said at the beginning of this review and I cannot wait to get my tiger hawk from big bad toy store when it comes
See that intro shows emgo is a true geek only he would reference silverhawks cartoon lol this is why I love his content
I like the figure, but would have prefered if they avoided the hollowness in the wings, with Galaxy Prime wasn't a big problem because the hollowness is on the back, but with Tigerhawk is harder to overlook in robot mode.

Good news! They have filler kits posted on eBay.
Well, that transformation is batshit insane. I love it!
It's very similar to the original. I highly recommend one if you can find it, or the Universe Razorclaw repaint!
how is it the old one looks cooler than the new one?!
Gotta love the silverhawks reference 😂. I think this is the case where the original is better, but this isn't bad, it's like armada Megatron.
I love his colors finally correct purple instead of the cobalt blue on the vintage one. I do miss the firing wings and cannons on the original and the feet that have springs, but I do think this toy looks more accurate. His robot face especially is so spot on !!! So glad they got rid of the weird mask thing on the original toy. He never had that in the show and it always bothered me loL
You can really hear the nostalgia in emgo's voice when he pull out battle mask on tiger hawk.
Fusion from Tigatron and Airazor by the Voks
the tf birds and bees.
It's nice that we're getting updated Beast Wars figures, but when are they giving us updated Transmetals?
Its characters like Tigerhawk, that makes me want to collect again. Wonder if there be any reuse if they make Silverbolt.
They are making silverbolt. Its a voager in this line.
Silverbolt is coming soon
I had NO idea how complicated his transformation was going to be. thank goodness for your videos.
i just found out you can actually give him his unused third mode
YOU JUST KNOW some Chad is gonna make the battle mask for him and clearly wing fillers. Im still hoping for a decent Nova Prime wing fix that is not 3d printed.
The beast mode proportion is MUCH BETTER on original one! PLUS the COOL battle helmet from the show!!
I just picked him up today and am genuinely impressed with this figure by the density of plastic alone.
Man I wish i had taken better care of my original Tigerhawk
I was expecting something like "He could tickle-tickle and tickle-tickle" with the feather weapon idk why LOL.
I'm going to wait for the Razorclaw repaint that (I hope) will come.
Me too
Mine isn't arriving until January....according to Amazon. It looks awesome! Can't wait!
Just waiting for him to be repainted into Razorclaw (Universe 2003).
This version, or the toy accyrate version, or Universe Razorclaw?
With enough patience and the right sales, I get more than 1, but that feels greedy. Gotta decide which one I get my friends and which I keep for me.
03:25 If you loosen the screw on the side of the tiger head it decreases the amount of friction at the shoulder. This subsequently decreases the risk of accidentally detaching the arm from the transformation tab when moving Tigerhawk’s arm down.
I look forward to getting it, it looks very screen accurate to the show. I like the original but this new one looks amazing

The original one also has better proportioned hind legs.
I’m hoping to get this guy for my birthday in February
TigerHawk was one of my favorite figures from the Beast Wars line back in the day
I'm kinda hoping they do the black Razorclaw recolor at some point as the original was one of my first transformers and is the only pre-2018 figure that I still have (lost the rest or they might be in boxes somewhere)
good job about Legacy Leader Class TIGERHAWK Action Figure from Transformers
Without change. There's no victory.
I still have my original Tigerhawk, although one of the feet broke off be all of the missiles disappeared. Can’t wait to get this version to replace my original
Got my Tigerhawk today. Only issue is that one of the claws on the robotic robot mode foot is too long, and scrapes against the leg cavity in transformation.
Oh I can’t wait to get my hands on the Legacy TigerHawk I never owned the original one but I’ll be really really excited when I can add the Legacy TigerHawk to my collection.
How much crazier a transformation would a masterpiece version of this guy be?
My old friend had the OG 2000s Universe Razorclaw figure which IMO was incredible at the time and I loved it, hope they actually repaint him in to Razorclaw. But this new figure is pretty cool, and I do enjoy his Transformation.
Wow I didn't know Em's been hosting video's for 10 years. That's really cool. Rock on Em :)
It’s been 14 years and still going 😁👍🏼
I love him em go he’s real beefy and his transformation was technical and he has a lot of accessories for a beast wars member and I’m now excited for magmatron … he’s also a real leader class size !
I like the subtle little asymmetric details they put in, it's a nice nod to the old toy but not overpowering either.

I just got mine today i been so hyped for this figure so glad they choose him for a update.
Hey @Emgo316 do you have the legacy evolution g2 universe deluxe class jazz
So if you take off the wings and retool some you can make a good polarclaw
Just got mine today and he's pretty badass. I do want to see some wing fillers as an upgrade kit - it seems like an obvious thing to do, so I doubt it'll take long.
I can't believe you didn't compare Tigerhawk's beast mode with Transmetal II Megatron's dragon mode after that epic aerial battle they had toward the end of "Beast Wars"!
… I can
Pre-ordered it back in October.
Definitely gonna get this figure as soon as possible. Need him to put next to my TM2 Megs. Speaking of, are you planning on getting the oversized knockoff of Legacy TM2 Megs by Black Mamba? I saw it yesterday morning, and I gotta say, it has piqued my interest.

"Oh! That's just so not Prime!"
No. No it's not. It's just Primal.
I am so excited for this figure. I was never able to get the original, considering I was only three when it was released. I really hope they repaint this guy into Razorclaw from the universe line.
Oh my god nice I’m going to get that when it comes out
It's amazing how similar the transformation is from the original
Tigerhawk looks cool but man, do they need a 3rd party upgrade stat
6:58 you no longer buy toys that are not Bloosh compatible. You have surrendered to the Bloosh!
Like the original toy, it has wheels on its back (wings) for the tank mode. Does this have a tank mode ?
Yes, kinda lol. It's definitely fan moded
The purple & silver work for him, but those chicken legs need to grow
An issue I have with this figure that I see nobody else talk about is the proportions being off. He’s just too bulky in the chest area. Like they kept everything else the correct size, but because the cheats is too big, it makes his arms, legs, and especially hands look way too small.
I know a lot of the Beast Wars figures in Kingdom 1 to 1 to their on screen appearance, but Tigerhawk and Scorponok really feel like misses.
All we need now is polar claw, quick strike, depth charge, and rampage I think we're getting silverbolt
I'll be filling the hollow wings with a bit of sculpey.
if I can't get one of these for myself, I will be mad
Tigerhawks although brief was my fav followed by silverbolt
Definitely getting Tigerhawk as soon as I can find him
Those wings scare me. He looks great though
I can write two paragraphs on this.
I'll simply say if someone can manage to take this apart and airbrush it & get it back together I'd like the look more.
This might end up being retooled into TFP Predaking
I appreciate the purple but i'm not a fan of the brown.
When Universe Razorclaw?
Missed opportunity for Tigerhawk Thunderbird Dance.
The proportions of the original seem a lot more imposing, in both modes. I don't think HasTak understood the assignment in updating the emissary of the Vok.
So glad I have the Original. With the Missiles.
I don't like Beast Wars all that much and this just looks like a strange mess but what I would like to know is why go from blue on the original figure to purple on the Legacy United one?
Show accurate
I know that Tigerhawk is a fusion of the two, but I would love to see a graduation skit where Airazor and Tigatron are so proud of their baby boy going off to college.
A funnier skit would have involved Nemesis...
I'm wondering if there will be updated of Magnaboss and Tripredacus? They need to have a more convincing combined mode.
Magnaboss is already confirmed and is going to be the next commander class that's coming out. 😊
I mainly want this guy to go with my Transmetal 2 Megatron. Since there aren't really any new Beast Wars figures that go with it (Maybe POTP Optimal Optimus. But I honestly don't think he's worth it)
Also, I had the original TM2 Megatron while my cousin had Tigerhawk. We use to play with those two figures all the time.
I like Mascot’s intro, shoutout to The SilverHawks
Hopefully they do a quickstrike, he was always my favorite BW ,s character
The beast mode's hind legs look really spindly.
It's PRECIOUS!!
The only complaint I have about this (especially compared to the original) is how small the rear legs look.
Tigerhawk Maximize!
Yeah, last time I Bloooshed out of both ends was about 15 years ago, was definitely food poisoning. Not a good time.
I thought you were going to make a cloaca joke at the end...lol
I had a black and purple version of the old toy when i was a kid, what was his name?
Razorclaw
That head sculpt looks like a bear.
Can’t wait for mine to arrive next week. They’re gorgeous!
Tho, I agree, I’d like fillers for the wings and guns, if not new guns, and maybe a Battle Mask for Beast Mode, too.
Ya, I was 1st to watch this. Always love when you pop up on my feed. ( That's what she said 😅)
Great figure, but the only thing better than the original is a little more articulation. And the original still has pretty satisfying articulation IMO and is better in every other way. Crazy how good the first release was!
i hope they re-release this and SS Grimlock all stores should out before I get my money
It's literally in stock at retailers
his beast mode kinda looks like Cyber Driger’s Digital seijū ngl😅
I love the silverhawks reference😅
