It’s definitely a good first attempt at a live action triple changer, even with the issues and the uhh “helicopter.” The shatter looks a lot better, they definitely learned from experience
the helicopter mode doesnt need to look accurate cuz drift's helicopter is in fact a non-real world helicopter and he's just parts-shifting his bugatti and robot parts to resemble the shape of a helicopter
I personally liked how he looked in the first movie but the bayverse design is my favorite. It's kind of sad we'll never see this design come back along with some of their other good-looking one's
Got the AoE version of this figure when it first came out, still among my favorire figures ever with everything it's able to acomplish. For their first big outing, I think they nailed it and have been nailing each release ever since, their Terrosaur is fantastic from what I've seen/heard, their new legends class BMB movie figures seem to hold themselves very well, and Shatter is looking to be another hit as the early reviews make it seem not that complicated to transform.
The Bludgeon redec had me conflicted on getting this fig, but I decided that it was waaay too much orange for my tastes. If they do a Banzaitron deco I'll probably grab it tho
Mildly frustrating in some ways but still an amazing figure. Like, just the fact that it exists is amazing. And BTW the chopper mode, when properly transformed, is actually pretty awesome, it's just the rotors that are goofy. I got an upgrade sword that turns into a better set of rotors. ALSO, weirdly I don't like the Veyron that much either! I much prefer the Mercedes that he turned into in TLK, as well as the black and red and gold, which looks amazing.
I actually got my first 3rd party figure thanks to these videos. Grabbed SG Skyfire, KO Dark Signus from TFSafari. Took about 10 day to ship to East Coast US. The figure itself is great.
It's pretty normal not to like the Veryron design. It's bulbous in all the wrong places. Compared to something like the Audi R8. Also the wing is even before DRS was a thing
I want this figure but my ideal repaint? AOE concept art. Instead of having blue accents, he's got orange, like the RID2015 design. Idk if it's too niche but it would be amazing.
1:36 Must say, I prefer to see the red version of Metagate Drift as a Super Sport version of AOE. [FIY, there is a limited but higher performance Bugatti Veyron called the Super Sport it. Beat a world record for fastest supercar between 2012 and 2014. But this car is expensive af to have. The 2 million dollar price tag, 55k for one set of tires (that don't last so long), and a 20k oil change makes it unaffordable for even some multi millionaires. (Also, 450 genuine exist, and were discontinued in 2015). And you'll probably never want to drive this when you learn that it is a horrible gas guzzler has a less than 10 mpg gas mileage. Still makes me wonder why it became my dream car for a while.] But I actually kind of like a Bugatti Veyron in this color (I have a RC model, which I painted just like that). But regardless, the only reason why I prefer the blue is because movie accuracy, and I'm quite serious about that in collecting. So if I wanted this guy, I'd probably by both (condolences to my credit card), but it's unlikely due to poor MPM scale, which I am also pretty serious in an extent. But overall, a pretty unexpectedly creative figure.
I wanna add to this with an interesting fact: From what I've heard, Drift was originally supposed to be Orange instead of Blue (basically would have been like Hot Rod's colors) but when Bay went looking for one, they were out of stock given they weren't made that often. Due to this Bay wound up choosing to go with a Blue one instead because he felt it "mached his personality a bit more." So honestly I think that this Red version is pretty nice since it more closely resembles his original intended colors.
I have this figure and I do really like it. However, there are some things I want to point out that I found out with mine: BE CAREFUL WHEN PUTTING LEVERAGE ON HIS ARMS!!! I managed to snap the upper part of his arm guards hinge when trying to shift his shoulder joints for transformation, since mine are quite tight. It doesn’t seem to affect anything except that it swivels much more easily now, maybe a little too easily. Second, the red paint on mine seems to chip fairly easily. The head crest has a huge gash through it and there are chips on the front bumper paint. As a side note, I had ZERO idea about the spoiler on the back. That’s a really neat touch.
Yo lo tengo y también tengo el mismo problema que tú con las piernas flojas. Pero sigue siendo una buena figura. No sé si la versión azúl tenga mas sólides en las piernas. Estoy pensando en adquirir lo. Un saludo 🎉
Yo I like the vide I don’t get why ppl don’t make more vids about him you made me love his design and I’m going to sell stuff to buy him and I got a good deal so ye ty for making this vide 😊
Loose hips/legs, not sure how they're put together but I had that issue with my old Armada Unicron and my bro 3D printed new pieces for it and they are so much tighter and not broken, wonder if it's like that for him?
I love this color scheme so much for than the AoE colors. I do wish it was the AMG Blackseries GT but I don’t think that form would have been possible considering the engineering
the blue Drift is my first quality transformer figure and, im not sure if its due to my lack of experience, but is it supposed to hurt so much trying to transform this mold? he's really tight almost everywhere and having to press a bit harder on the sharp surfaces of his armor really made my thumbs hurt like hell. he was in fact so tight in one foot when trying to unfold the "spikes" i broke one of them. how the hell are you supposed to pull those out with just the strength of your fingertips?
I have the blue drift and it's a good figure, just it's kinda cancerous to transform. However looking at a video of shatter, she looks so much simpler to transform.
I like how the bayverse took the samurai aspects of drift which were pretty subtle in idw and Just made him a literal samurai
Bay never does subtle.
@@bighomie8553 he doesnt know subtle
Bay also made his face bright yellow in age of extinction…
@@okamithewanderingwolf172like me
@@bighomie8553yep
It’s definitely a good first attempt at a live action triple changer, even with the issues and the uhh “helicopter.” The shatter looks a lot better, they definitely learned from experience
I have to cut the some slack for the copter since it was barely visible in the movie
the helicopter mode doesnt need to look accurate cuz drift's helicopter is in fact a non-real world helicopter and he's just parts-shifting his bugatti and robot parts to resemble the shape of a helicopter
@@Crimsxn_K1ra exactly, it looks so abstract to the point that I just think it's fine since I had no idea what the hell he eve transform in the movie
Truly we've come a long way in transformers engineering

That intro was CLEAN man
That transition in the intro was nuts

I am very happy to find out that another person who doesn't like the Bugatti Veyron exists.

Finally, a definitive Drift figure.
Technically he's been out for like a year counting the original blue version, but yeah finally.
I actually got my first 3rd party figure thanks to these videos. Grabbed SG Skyfire, KO Dark Signus from TFSafari. Took about 10 day to ship to East Coast US. The figure itself is great.
Saw someone else use this song for another cool intro not long ago! Pretty sure it was for Scourge!
0:05 clean as fk transition
good news they finally made a proper one, tho I dont you'll make a review on will you?
Dang, that intro is out of the world
To be fair that helicopter is pretty accurate to how it looked in the movie 😅

That transition tho🔥🔥🔥🔥
Every toys are not backpacks they're back is back with the spine when does idiots never learn
That intro was tough
Alr best transition so far😮💨
Oooooo!
Bravo!
Excellent intro!!!!
This has too be the best redeco yet
I have the aoe version and he’s fantastic
intro got a nice transition i like
"so what colour's your bugati??"
😂😂😂

They really milked this mold. there’s the two versions, a bludgeon mold, and I saw a pure white one somewhere. I don’t blame them, he’s great!
I’ve always thought his car looked stupid but now I think it looks epic

already got the shatter preordered and payed for on showz
i can’t wait to see it in person
THAT TRANSITION IS🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Damn that intro song kicks ass. Love the video too!
Watching emgo over instructions, so real for that
I Had the aoe version of this drift, It broke a while back
A dropdown hip system like on ss 102 would have fixed the legs I assume
Loose hips/legs, not sure how they're put together but I had that issue with my old Armada Unicron and my bro 3D printed new pieces for it and they are so much tighter and not broken, wonder if it's like that for him?
i recall in TLK, Drift vehicle model was a Mercedes Benz
You should cover the DreamStar toys Aerialbots they are surprisingly good looking figures and they scream bayverse
I love this color scheme so much for than the AoE colors. I do wish it was the AMG Blackseries GT but I don’t think that form would have been possible considering the engineering
I hope FOR a redo of this figure that turns into the Mercedes Benz and a Helicopter, because this looks AMAZING!
0:05 how strong are crosshairs' guns like he sent that guy flying back with one shot
I also don't like the Veyron that much. It's just.. Weirdly round? It looks like a half-sphere on wheels.
Which should i get Mp-36 or WW-1 (not world war wasp warrior)
So cool.
Dude do you think XP-13 oversize mpm bumblebee is good scale to this figure?
Yes, i just got this figure today and the knockoff uniquetoy op knight and xp13 stand perfectly with this guy
This figure's 20% off at Show.Z. There's also a white version which is only £67.
emgo the goat fr
If I am being honest I don’t like the car mode, it looks to slanted to me and I don’t really like the look of it in general
This sale is too late for me. I finally pulled the trigger on Planet X Vulcan and Make Toys Meteor in a sale recently so I'm not spending for a while.
You gotta get a hold of the junkions man
bro i caught my brother watching this video and now I am crying in my room because he ordered it from a website and the parcel just arrived
I just got this figure but it came with missing pieces and the seller isnt responding ;-;
Dame that is a nice figure
It looks so cool
the blue Drift is my first quality transformer figure and, im not sure if its due to my lack of experience, but is it supposed to hurt so much trying to transform this mold? he's really tight almost everywhere and having to press a bit harder on the sharp surfaces of his armor really made my thumbs hurt like hell. he was in fact so tight in one foot when trying to unfold the "spikes" i broke one of them. how the hell are you supposed to pull those out with just the strength of your fingertips?
Pretty cool vid. Also First like
Holy smokes. The car part just disappear when transformed
ce n'est pas une mercedes amg gtr a la base?🤔🤔🤔
Looks so cool!
How do you fix the hips i jus bought one for 57$
It my birthday I think I’m buy this
I have the blue drift and it's a good figure, just it's kinda cancerous to transform. However looking at a video of shatter, she looks so much simpler to transform.
After having shatter in hand...she is so much better than drift lol.
Things that make transformers fans cringe
The northern cold winter causing your toys to break 🥶
How much is this?
around $100+ USD.
hows the cold in canada toy guy here its not too bad
That car guy
so… who’s video does emgo watch
I wanted this but wrong car mode and so because of that he has the wrong chest just a nitpick bjt it bugs me too much
Metagate did tease a Tlk drift with the right car mode
But idk when it'll release
Ohh ill have to keep a look out for it
Shiiiit, that looks good
This toy is confusing.
It has the chest plate and robot mode of the Mercedes AMG
The color of the TLK
The Bugatti and helicopter mode from AoE
Ça y est metagate a sorti la vraie version mercedes.celle là je ne la prendrai pas.
If you don’t like the way, then I’ll have it😊
Hey bro wanna use some of my
Music on your videos
La vraie version mercedes est sortie,celle là je me là ferai pas.j'ai déjà la vraie version en bleu
‼RED DRIFT IS NOT HELIKPTAH‼
lol the video has 1 views 41 seconds and 7… 7 likes
Me trying to tell the goth girls I’m 6’3
you know its been out for a year already
Yes...and
It's because you're a Transformers nerd not a Car Enthusiasts...SIMPLE
Agreed... They're just geeks
I find he would look better if they gave him a face mask like Optimus prime, the mouth is to human like😖
Why is it a bugatti it should be a masadez Benz
I pointed out why
Bruh
Not a weird take imo, I think Bugatti makes some ugly ass cars. EB110 is a bad copy of a Diablo, the Veyron and Chiron look like a pair of Crocs.
i would like to make the objective statement that you're not very good at posing your figures and i mean this in the most neutral way possible
Hhhhmmm Drift ,':]
That's like totally the wrong car! Super lazy repaint much? (Supposed to be a Mercedes-AMG GT R, instead of a Bugatti Veyron 16.4)
If I hear you say your height in a video one more time. Oh my god are you that desperate 💀
helicopter mode looks like poop
I mean that's accurate to the movie, not saying it doesn't though
Love the vid, but real quick, I SEE ALL YALL BINGING THIS MAN'S CONTENT! SO CUT TO THE CHASE AND SUBSCRIBE TO HIM ALREADY!!😤😤😤😤
