2 years later and my blood still boils remembering June 23, 2020. Nobody like Black Apple can make mod KOs until they are originals molds as great as he does. Too bad neither oversizing nor heavy modifying could save either from unfair copyright laws (in fact, I doubt even 100% OG molds like UT Megatron and Metagate Drift are legal, either, plus Toyworld may behave face a similar fate). OH CURSE YOU DISNEY! WHY DID YOU HAVE TO BE PROVOKED BY AN UNLICENSED IRON MAN FIGURE?!? IF YOU STAYED OUT HASBRO WOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN INVOLVED! Still, even laws can't stop from carrying out the right to be creative, and as long as there are fans and creative designers, there will be 3rd parties, and even if Hasbro shuts one down, dozens will replace it.
@@floofer6699 no. In 2020, Weijiang decided to become cocky and made their own Iron Man toy, then leak it directly in front of Disney. This would be suicide for them, since most of the factories were raided and shut down once Hasbro found out what was going on soon afterwards. The top managers and Black Apple (known as An Peng in the news article I read, but in a vlog I saw of him, his legal name is Guoshen) were sadly arrested. And when Black Apple left prison, he basically lost faith in making 3rd party Transformers toys, so we never got the Ironhide they promised us, and the 3rd party company rumored to be safekeeping the unreleased prototypes has been inactive for years, which is Dream Factory. Despite rumors that Weijiang had a successor, the most we knew was that the warehouses were mostly untouched, and the remaining stock, consisting of BA Optimus Primes and Blackouts was reissued as a clearance sale in early 2022. So in a nutshell, we lost a great 3rd party company in 2020. 2020 was the worst for us all; the African Americans had BLM, Southern California had wildfires, the Republicans manipulated the US with lies about the election, the whole world had Covid (obviously), and the Transformers fandom lost a beloved 3rd party company. I celebrate by myself a personal holiday on the day of Black Apple's arrest (June 23, 2020) to commemorate Weijiang's tragic downfall. I forgot to make special posts in 2021 and 2022, but this year, I'll try to upload a special that day.
Wei Jiang likely is going to reform and rebrand as a different company. If they haven't already. Looking at some of the new stuff on the market, I.E the sweet MPM Ironhide that's being released for preorders. They make it quite specific that it is NOT Wei Jiang 😂😂 I found that pretty funny. Why mention that at all?? 🤔 Just sayin'! 😊
“That’s just me, to each their own; I know how opinions work I hope you do too, and that is just my opinion” that is gold, not even being funny that’s a GOOD quote
@@alexa.d.d1006 if I understand well, hasbro said wei jiang copy theme so they are in prison. Or they feared hasbro so they stoped themselves. But I am not sure what happened
There's one thing about this figure that I find highly amusing. I'm watching emgo transform the back half of the truck into Prime's legs. Thinking about it in reverse, going from robot to truck...it's amazing all of the steps that are needed...to literally not hide anything. You absolutely transform Prime's legs...to Prime's legs...from Prime's legs. I will truly miss watching emgo review Wei Jiang's KO Transformers. I have loved their Transformers dearly for quite some time now, and will always be amazed that what we call knock-offs are almost always better in every way than the real thing.
Agreed!! I took to calling them "unofficial" it just sounds better. Knock off gives the impression of a cheap substitute, which most of these definitely are NOT!!
Hi, does it? Im just getting my head around scale. I bought a Giga Dinobot and a Siege Jetfire for Commander Scale to go with my line up of Voyager and delux standards and thought Optimus was a Leader Class.
I bought TW and after watching recent videos of comparisons from other companies, I’m scared to transform mine. My TW Prime might always stay in bot mode.
Toy World Freedom leader: Why do I hear boss music? Also Toy World Freedom Leader: Oh it's just the Wei Jiang Commander Leader. Well this is an unfair match up...
@@bagusadjie4522 I agree bro. At first it's hard for me to choose which one to buy. Although more expensive than WeiJiang's version, TW is pretty close to 3Zero's aesthetic & transformable albeit very finicky one ...So I bought TW standard version.
Yeah, I agree, playability over aesthetics is in my eyes better. That's why I'm probably never going to get the Devil Saviour Devastator, because so far the figure endlessly combat you, and why I want mpm Starscream because you can actually play with him, and he looks good.
Quite happy with my M09, first Wei Jiang figure I have gotten and with all that's happened with WJ, glad I did. Mine didn't come with Batteries, but was able to find out what they were through an online search, instructions or the box didn't help on that front.
Mechanical Team just started releasing upgraded oversized and repainted SS Constructicons. So far they have Scrapmetal, Hightower, and a Rampage. They re-engineered some of the components and added new features and accessories. Best I've seen so far.
Thank you for making this video! Bought this back when it was released, and forgot how to completely transform this. I got stuck during the folding doors into the body and this video helps me discover that there's double hinges, problem solved!
before I actually did think about getting Freedom leader but after seeing some reviews and how crazy and daft the transformation is I opt'd out and got commander leader or fire scorpion
Yeah, Hasbro and Takara Tomy really need to starting learning from the Knock off toy companies that make improvements upon their figures, so that we can buy their toys and be able to keep them (and only sell them off if we're running out of storage space for our collection) and they can make more money without any trouble!
Dunno if u Saw the MP10 transformation similarities Emgo, by the way this guy ain't actually a KO but an original Mold, still his legs look like Three Zero's though, great Review as always pal!
I'll miss the reviews on Wei Jiang products as I liked their engineering but honestly they were usually too expensive for me to collect anyway. I guess their payoff check to the Chinese authorities to look the other way bounced lol.
Ohhh poor Wei Jiang. Despite being a KO Most of there stuff is amazing. I always regretted not picking up the Black Apple MPM Prime, now it’s next to impossible to find. Guess I’ll have to pick up a few of there more recent releases now that they are shutting down.
im gonna be honest I like how this one looks and transforms. normaly they add like fake windshields and stuff to make it over complicated but this one looks nice while being simples and using the windshields you see in truck mode.
Great review my man. Totally agree that the upper section is VERY slightly on the larger side but still very impressive. My legs also suffered with floppage but a screwdriver sorted that straight out. Batteries only came in the head of mine. None in my gun so I think I got robbed. But for anyone in the same position the batteries are AG1. I bought a pack of 20 of ebay for almost zero monies. Keep up the awesome work and stay safe everyone.
tl;dr Third party figures, the best ones, are legally grey art pieces, their transformations and engineering are truly a work of art. So it's sad to hear that Wei Jiang might be the beginning of them being made illegal. Just looking up the Wei Jiang situation real quick, it's sad to hear especially the precedent it might set. But it sucks because I don't know why "remixing" with toys is seen as so much more strict than anything else. Like with music stuff like parodies exist which literally use THE SAME base song just changing up the lyrics but that is seen as transformative enough. Or even basic remixes that just tweak the song a tad bit to make it sound different and depending on your preferences, better. And this is all amazing as it allows people to creatively change or tweak stuff they want to in ways they think would improve it, yet the same cannot happen with toys? If it stops becoming possible to improve on designs or make your own transformations of certain characters (which is completely original! Since the whole engineering and design comes from the specific designers making it, completely separate from the company which made the character itself) If all this amazing new work becomes disallowed it will be a sad day as all this creative works breaths new life into the designs and characters, that cannot be done just by the "official" companies. Like how in other industries, we wouldn't have lots of amazing computers or cars or anything, if the design wasn't allowed to be improved upon by only very specific companies that created it in the first place. It would just lead to stagnation if the same practices were applied to other industries. But I guess it's fine for toys to be so strict because "who cares it's toys" even though if the laws were enforced we wouldn't get such great design from third party companies. Not allowing innovation to flourish legally just leads to stagnation, whether you view said thing as important or not. I get these companies wanting to own the characters or designs, but there needs to be some leeway, some time after which it's completely fine to produce your own third party designs, because if it isn't allowed we wouldn't get such great amazing new toys. And the world of toy designs would be so much more sadder without amazing designs coming from third parties who aren't afraid to innovate and create cool new unique designs and transformations
Wei Jiang has gotten by on some pretty scummy stuff unrelated to this figure. they made a business out of direct copies long before they started designing stuff like this and their Ultima Guard. I do hope their design team finds a new home.
I have both the TW Prime and the WJ Prime and I won't transform either. Personally I prefer the chunkiness of the WJ figure. Makes him look ripped and ready for war. My favorite analogy is, TW looks like teenager Prime. WJ looks like war-torn, adult Prime. WJ Prime actually has abs, while TW looks like he pulled his pants up too high. Also, I attempt to fix the loose shoulder joints on the WJ so that he could hold up his gun and I succeeded in doing so. For anyone who is interested....its quite easy. On the back of the shoulder, open the panel. Behind the panel you will see two screws. Take them out. Once those screws are out, pull the front panel away from the back panel of the shoulder. This will cause the arm to come off. Then you should see a screw holding the gray joint to the inner shoulder. Take that out. Once you remove the swiveling joint, you should see the peg that goes inside. Put clear nail polish all over this joint and let dry. Then put everything back together. This fixed mine. He can now hold his gun up! yay.
Mmmm ..I don't think so ..I also have both ..but of course TW is better than WJ in robot mode ,.I don't like chest from WJ . It's too big . Not proportional in robot mode ..maybe in truck mode WJ better ..it's just my opinion 👍
Have you found the allicon in stores emgo? If so, where did you look? I can't seem to find it, and I want it badly for the pit of judgment set, and I'm not paying scalper prices for it.
I don’t know who made it but I have a Rise of the God of War, Autobot Apex. He’s the same size of these dudes but is a very close upscale of the studio series. I’m very happy with mine.
Hi Emgo! Always love to view your videos! Just asking, why is this on the Knock Off section? Doesn't this mold is original like other third parties like TW? Shouldn't this goes to third party section? Thanks! :D
@@rasmadrak Of course, most of third party TFs aren't licenced either. Like Toyworld, those aren't licenced either but Emgo put ToyWorld and others in Third Party section. I think M09 deserved to be put on that section too. But most of other Wei Jiang toys are indeed KOs (they took hasbro's mold and make a KO out of it). But this one, even though its made by the same company (Wei Jiang), it doesnt put Wei Jiang logo/ name anywhere on the packaging and made their own mold for this M09. (Just like ToyWorlds'). So i dont think it fits to put M09 on the KO section, since it is not a KO mold.
@@runemaster- The biggest similarity between the two is how the real grill goes into the chest and becomes the matrix chamber, My source that says it's a retool is from perspective end so yeah
I got mine. Holy Shit it took a while to arrive. Obviously COVID-19 related but the post sent it back because it was from China. It was in the post for over 3 months. If you’re getting it and you live in Europe be aware it will take some time. And extra customs charges (not too much)
In terms of the floppy-joint issue I’ve heard about- how would one go about tightening them? Tightening screws? Adding floor polish? Are the joints even fixable?
Did anyone hear emgo yell right before he threw that box? no just me? very well carry on then also cool review im guessing he has about 200 primes right about now .
I can't believe that this was Wei Jiang's final release since they were raided and got shut down! UPDATE: And since Takara Tomy and Hasbro have started releasing their new Transformers Masterpiece Movie Series MPM-12 Bumblebee Movie Optimus Prime figure, Wei Jiang won't be able to take it and make it look better.
3:53 maybe gave us 4 because optimus prime did not transformed in the movie in cybertronian form so if the other two tyres go inside so no need for the front two cybertronian tyres

Ahh i was about to ask why the raid but nvm.
@@Tonyr72699 Why? I thought China didn't care about copyright?
@@AztecCroc Well in Hasbro Asia that they care about Copyrighted.
the same company made a nemisus prime with the bumble bee movie optimus, it looks really good
This was my favorite Optimus Prime design in the movies, its no wonder its also my favorite figure
Not really he's a red, white and, blue truck. So technically he's an American truck.
That's trueeee
And some grey thrown in there.
I mean his G1 mode was based on a Freightliner which is an *American* brand, so yes, he is an American truck.
I was today years old when I heard that this is a knock off of MP10 but designed like bumblebee movie prime and it was kind of mind blowing
basically an oversized studio series optimus,with additional panel and detail
The transformation seems extremely similar to the OP-EX IDW Optimus
Looks fantastic just like takara tommy
That tripod rifle takes "shooting for the stars" literally!
well Wei Jiang will be missed for the awesome transformers there mpm ironhide looked soo good
What has happend have they gone bankrupt?
Prime's AXE has become his signature weapon, even though in the G1 show it only appeared in one episode! XD
Except the funny part with his axe was..... wait for it.........
"Now he can pew pew hack hack, pew pew Hack-- HEY!!! Hey! Trying to pew pew hack hack, not pew pew DROP DROP." LOL!!! 😆😆😆😆😆😆

I have both the TW Prime and the WJ Prime and I won't transform either. Personally I prefer the chunkiness of the WJ figure. Makes him look ripped and ready for war.
My favorite analogy is, TW looks like teenager Prime. WJ looks like war-torn, adult Prime.
WJ Prime actually has abs, while TW looks like he pulled his pants up too high.
Also, I attempt to fix the loose shoulder joints on the WJ so that he could hold up his gun and I succeeded in doing so.
For anyone who is interested....its quite easy.
On the back of the shoulder, open the panel.
Behind the panel you will see two screws. Take them out.
Once those screws are out, pull the front panel away from the back panel of the shoulder. This will cause the arm to come off.
Then you should see a screw holding the gray joint to the inner shoulder. Take that out.
Once you remove the swiveling joint, you should see the peg that goes inside.
Put clear nail polish all over this joint and let dry.
Then put everything back together.
This fixed mine. He can now hold his gun up! yay.

Because it's a retool of MPP-10 which is an illigal upscale of MP-10 so technically it counts as a knock off
@@stivers56 i don't see it though (as a retool), m09 and mpp10 are way too different.
@@runemaster- The biggest similarity between the two is how the real grill goes into the chest and becomes the matrix chamber, My source that says it's a retool is from perspective end so yeah
Hmm... Gets notification of a new video 11 hour ago huh cool
I got mine. Holy Shit it took a while to arrive. Obviously COVID-19 related but the post sent it back because it was from China. It was in the post for over 3 months. If you’re getting it and you live in Europe be aware it will take some time. And extra customs charges (not too much)
This prime has Pacman on either side of his midsection XD
In terms of the floppy-joint issue I’ve heard about- how would one go about tightening them? Tightening screws? Adding floor polish?
Are the joints even fixable?
Did anyone hear emgo yell right before he threw that box? no just me? very well carry on then also cool review im guessing he has about 200 primes right about now .
I can't believe that this was Wei Jiang's final release since they were raided and got shut down!
UPDATE: And since Takara Tomy and Hasbro have started releasing their new Transformers Masterpiece Movie Series MPM-12 Bumblebee Movie Optimus Prime figure, Wei Jiang won't be able to take it and make it look better.
Nooooooo. You missed the pacman on the lower left side of the box.
TBH. Sunddenly i like this figure more than TW bcuz of the simple transformation and the way the truck realization.
I liked him so much i bought a 2nd one. To bad we don’t get a Nemesis version
Yeah, because of Wei Jiang getting shut down.
@@Shanali-ry1nl they are already back. That shut down was months ago. They reopened
@@donaldjackson4456 Well, that's good news!
For those interested. Dition is an obscure outdated word meaning dominion or rule
Commander Leader has Follower Minions as subordinates😂
6:46 Surprised there was no "WHAT!? Parts-forming! W o r s t t o y e v e r !" moment.
What if the scratches and scuffs weren't actually part of the design and the deliverers just went haywire with the figure's box during shipping?
3:53 maybe gave us 4 because optimus prime did not transformed in the movie in cybertronian form so if the other two tyres go inside so no need for the front two cybertronian tyres
It’s like these companies have a bumblebee Optimus prime fetish
Just like the craze on third party devastator
Or g1 Megatron
Damn
Edit: I'm that guy who said you should make a gaming channel and yet I have been watching you for 4 years XD
@@nosrepsuomynona7192 Ik he told me that in his other vid
Oh btw when is toy world knight Orion gonna come out

i love the detail
Is the a Megatron from the beebumble movie emgo316?
A third party company is currently working on one.
May I ask your honest opinion which bumblebee movie prime is better, M09 or the BMB LS-13? Aesthetics and playability wise 😁
Is Wei Jiang getting shut down or something?
I reameber when engo played the walking dead hi emgo

@@emgo316 i remeber when you said this is the only time you can kill cops if there zombies kids good times and dont forget about stuped duck
Emgo there is an upgrade kit for transformers studio series optimus prime
Have you ever thought of stitching together all your clip show videos to make a full movie/story
Wei Jane has a thing with shoulder orientation
