If I had a nickel for every gray and purple Decepticon Titan with a self-destructing ratchet in his legs, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
Aw. I was excited to get this guy, but there's no way I'm gonna spend $300 to get a figure with a pretty serious quality control issue.
@@AlexSeverinski Personally, that's where my nostalgia and overwhelming desire to own a brand new Titan-class Tidalwave comes in. It sucks that the ratchet sucks but like... I'm okay with that. Besides, mileage may vary so your copy has a greater chance of not having that issue.
What's the first one? lmao
@@dkkanofkash8798 Titans Return Trypticon
@@AlexSeverinski He is really cool but not quite worth the price, so I'm just very conflicted, probably gonna cave in the end and get him but I do wish he was cheaper
Man I remember the old Armada game on the ps2 and the end credits had Tidal wave doing pushups which was hilarious
Same here. That boss battle was very impactful back then.
😂😂 loved that game..
I was hearing the boss music when this video started in my head
I never got far in that game without the invincibility code...I've been wanting to try it without that code lately.
…okay, the way they managed to engineer pieces for the armada Megatron to use for the combination is genuinely genius.
Yah, problem with Tidal Wave is either he'd be too big and sacrifice the combine mode, or he'd be too small and allow the combine mode but sacrifice his more closer to canon height. This was an ingenious compromise.
This would have been better as a commander class price.
@@TheZamaronMaking him a titan was actually to get him closer to his game height.
He’s actually not that much taller than Megatron in the show.
@@frenchfriedbagel7035 Huh, interesting.
@@leosanchez7997 a commander class price when he stands nearly twice the height of Commander class Armada Prime in super mode? No no, this boy is worth his price by that alone
Man the cannons! climb aboard!
They'll remember us forevermore!
A fellow enjoyer of Jonathan Young, I see!
Together weather ev-er-y storm ~Oh~ man the cannons! Draw your sword!
They'll remember us forevermore!
Techno-Pirate Guitar riff intensifies.
Hells yes, my friend!!!! JoYo forever!
Fun Fact: Tidal Wave's deco is based on his purple and grey appearance in the cartoon but with orange detailing on his windows and other elements inspired by his Legends of the Microns toy
Also, his name was Shockwave in Japan. Even his head of his ship was a direct homage of G1 Shockwave.
@@Tonyr72699That explains the cannons in the hands, too.
Ahh, the Great Space Boat. At least in Armada his vocabulary went beyond just saying his name over and over again. Almost like he was trying to remind himself who he was 😅
Tidal wave has the vocal capacity of a standard pokemon.
The Super-dreadnought combined mode looks just like something the Space Battleship Yamato would fight.
That is true that does look like something the yamato would fight
I'm so excited for this guy. And the fact that he is a Titan makes me even more excited! I've been wanting a new tidal way figure since the original back in Armada. What's also cool is that that box art is inspired by the boss battle you fought against this guy in the PS2 Armada game. That boss battle is burned into my memory from when I was a kid. I still catch myself humming the boss theme sometimes.
I never thought that any robot the size of CW Devastator is "too small". As someone who lives in a 900 square ft. condo, I need my bots to NOT all be so big!
I was a little disappointed to see a report that Titan Tidal Wave can't transform between robot mode and combined-dreadnaught mode without separating, but ... honestly? Given just how freaking BIG he is? Combined transformation would've been too dangerous, and this guy's bringing plenty as it is. Got my fingers crossed about the knee ratchets though ... thanks for the tips on how to fix that, and as always, thanks for the review as a whole!
Perhaps you haven't seen Scorponok or Black Zarak. This is far smaller and slighter than those. Barely "Titan Class" at all.
Correct; I haven't seen the figures or watched reviews of those two (or is it one plus redeco?) I also don't have physical space to collect Titan class TFs - I like Tidal Wave too much *not* to get this one, but I'm a little worried about where I'll put him once I have him.
@@carnmarth334 i own black zarak
tidal waves parts count surpasses them and its likely the same weight would you rather them have made it larger at the cost of wven more hollowness? because thats a large reason whynolder toys were larger
Naw, they could’ve done it, but it would require giant gaps in the inside of the legs.
@@jh302 What language are you typing in?
Ya know, I heard somewhere that, "Metroplex heeds the call of the last Prime!!" 😂😂
Real talk, that line still gives me chills to this day.
Imagine getting Legacy Jetfire to create Jet Optimus and completing that with Legacy Overload.
I really want that to happen, if only so I can put a whole bunch of weaponizer parts on for an ungodly amount of guns.
I mean legacy armada prime is literally already engineered to do that too. Like the autobot logo on the top of the cab, or front of the chest is legitimately removable and has a 5mm port.
So you take jetfires shield, plug that 5mm port into the chest, and then the logo into the shield. The legs, well that's simple tbh.
"Tidal Wave... Tidal Wave..."
Yep until he was rebuilt into mirage and went all yaoi for megatron senpai
Shock...WAAAAAAAVE! Shock. Shock. Shock.
"TIDAL WAAAAAVE!! Tidal Wave will protect Cybertron! Tidal Wave will attack!" -Tidal Wave
MEGATRON LIVES.... MEGATRON LIVES....
When everything you know has come and gone
I feel like, just unscrewing the top screw at the knee halfway (or a quarter) might give the knee more room to flex, if the problem is tension, and if it pops in half when you start unscrewing it anyway.
We’re so sorry that Legacy Tidal Wave is missing a Mini-Con partner which is a Ramjet.
It pisses me off so much that the TITAN figures with minicons haven't gotten them. Yet sg minicon and the pulse con set came with minicons.
There's 0 excuse to not include mini cons in figures that cost this much. Hell for the longest time we got packed in exclusive figures but even THOSE aren't exclusive anymore now that mainframe is being released separately from the ark.
Hasbro is making it really difficult to stay with them instead of jumping ship completely and going 3rd party..
24:55 The figure, when turning into it's combined alt mode, has a nice homage to the armada ps2 game, where you can actually see Tidal Wave's head/face in the mid-Atlantic level, after you get inside his battleship mode.
I love how he hasn't changed from when I was a kid. Even though it has been a tone of yours. You can still watch some of his older videos, and he hasn't changed. And I love it! Thank you for always being here with great content and fun videos!
I love this thing, looks amazing. Best playability of any titan since omega.
That head is the evil version of the Gigachad
The Nega-Chad
@@ChaoticTeen16THE NEGA CHIN
Yes.
@@crimson7000Mr. Crocker, I didn't know you read comic books!
Generations metroplex was over 10 years ago , we're lucky Tidal Wave isnt half the size now the way inflation was going after the pandemic.
There never was one😂. Wake up ... stop believing corporate lies. Life isn't Disney or RE😂
New Emgo review AND it is of the figure I anticipate the most right now?! Thank you!
I think for the mini dark fleet they wanted to do a mini tidal wave but couldn’t due to the budget
There's several places I can see where they ran out of budget. Probably would have had a panel to cover the little ship in the back for example.
@@brettwood1351 I’m pretty sure the panel on his butt flips up to cover it
@@OmegaFirePrime I certainly hope so, but so far I haven't seen any pictues of it fully covering that.
@@OmegaFirePrimeIt doesn’t cover it.
Always enjoy watching your videos dude, been waiting ages to see this review and ever detail is amazing. Even the tips regarding the knee springs and how to resolve it. Defo looming forward to getting this titan😁👍
Looks like anyone that did the upgrade for Megatron’s shoulders arent entirely screwed because of how Tidal Wave’s backpack attaches to Megatron
Main reason why I didn't opt in to get that kit. I had to see the combination first. Glad I waited.
I wonder if the rear skirt con flip up to cover the hole on his back and his mini-Me.
Seems like a missed opportunity to not have the mini dark fleet combine into a mini Tidal Wave
I am also sad about it I hope DNA design can fix that and make a complete mini tidal wave
@@sar9998 I can see a DNA kit including parts to make mini Tidal Wave, as well as replacement hands, and probably replacement cannons.
they mentioned it it couldnt be budgeted in sadly
They talked about that on Social Media and said that there wasn’t enough budget for it.
Success!!! Glad this was the first review I saw!
Tidal wave:
0:25 you coming at me bro
Really can’t wait to get this guy when he comes out on Amazon
You can always depend on EmGo to have a thorough review. Thank you sir.
I hope we get an Energon repaint of this guy, I really regretting selling my Energon Tidal Wave 😭
the whole thing with the paint was a catch 22, this covers both the cartoon and the takara toy, but there's enough people wanting all 3 colors!
hey look, IT's SHOCKWAVE (u know technically I'm not wrong)
i think its cute that the mini versions incorporate into the larger versions
I like the little ships that can be used with either Megatron or Galvatron, excellent design
Tidal wave looks Awesome
Fantastic Transformers collection
Woah such a cool looking Megatron accessory
Wasn't going to ask about how he scales to Metroplex.
Trypticon and the SDF-1 on the other hand.
I absolutely love the way they integrated the combiner mode with Megs into this figure, it is so cute!!
seeing the mini armor mode for Megatron, I kinda wonder if the mini dark fleet could have been made to combine into a mini tidel wave ? and keep up the awesome and entertaing videos Emgo !
Bruh, your ring looks great!
That combination with Megatron reminds me of when I've got to transport a canoe from one body of water to another by foot.
His chin is in competition with American Dad immensity.
Looks awesome
Man it would have been such a call back for me if you compared Tidal Wave to Knight Morpher Cyclops.
Thanks for the two solutions. Just in case. Best Titans so far imo are Scorponok and Omega Supreme. Great review.
Welp, even with the overwound spring, I'll still get it. I'll just perform some surgery as soon as I get him, just like with Trypticon. His height bothers me a teeeeny bit, but Emgo saying that he makes up for it in heft tempers that disappointment somewhat.
Also, a third option for knee repair; take the spring and compress and release for 10-15 minutes. That works out some of the tension of the spring and usually achieves the same result. I did that for my Trypticon (and his infamous exploding hips) and it worked wonders. From what I've seen on TFW2005, this should work for this figure too.
Throughout this whole review I've had Tidal Wave's boss theme from Transformers PS2 playing in my head haha
That’s is a very clever way of doing the combination in my opinion
Tidal Wave looks epic
He will give you one hell of a thumbs up.
Finally, emgo finally reveiws him!
Oh man. I was hoping the door on the aircraft carrier deck opened like on the original and would have a tiny jet in it. Oh well, can’t have everything. At least we got some parts forming!
Pre-ordered this guy a while back. Can't wait to get him!
This is the third review video i have watched about this figure and it looks like the two halves of the hovercraft not staying connected is also the universal issue. But i never heard about the knee joint issue being brought up until this video. Still excited to get mine though😁.
Not a fan of the base mode, but everything else about Tidal Wave is amazing looking. Seriously can’t wait for mine to eventually arrive.
That's a big figure tied away Transformers character like Biggers and yes. Godzilla
So this explains why they made Megatrons shoulder hinges work they way they do. Super hyped for this to come out!
megatron "i want your body"
I think I remember seeing something about how the leftover thumb on the big robot, after removing the Megatron add-ons, can be rotated 180 and the weird flat thumb becomes a fake smaller hand and the cannon becomes a fake smaller thumb so he can still look like a complete robot.
I'm seriously impressed - Those little mini-Dark Fleet components do so much stuff, I'm almost surprised they didn't just go the whole the nine yards and have them combine into a little mini-Tidal Wave!
Probably gonna wait to see if they fix those knee ratchets in a later run, though...
this is called a true transformers fan, bro has an autobot ring in his fingers
Tidal Wave is my favorite Armada figure, so I was very much looking forward to this. But man, my favorite feature isn't on the titan. Love the rising deck hangar on the original for the minicon jet. I wish they had incorporated that somehow, even with a little jet partner or something.
Honestly, that's a really clever workaround for keeping Tidal Wave as the colossus he's supposed to be in canon while also making it so that he can combine with Megatron.
I look forward to getting this one day.
Maybe they will come out with a Legacy Thunderblast figure.
I'm honestly surprised we didn't get an 86 SS Scourge remold into Thunderblast yet. Still waiting for a Shard remold to Prime Airachnid too.
I've always thought of Omega Supreme was a good rival to Tidel Wave, both are huge carriers/guardians of their factions, both now have base modes and finally you dont want to be stepped on by either of them. Lol. Thanks and have a great day
As a wise man once said :
tidal wave! tidal wave! TIDAL WAVE!
I never watched or collected Armada but it looks like a good figure and the combined alt mode looks great.
considering how i remember the original's arm connectors looking, it would be funny if like menasor they used combiner wars ports for the arms.
There is a lot of leverage working on those shoulder joints.
We’re so sad that we still missing Legacy Armada Jetfire.
Probably it will come in the future, let us prey friend
We also need Legacy Overload to finish the full combination
He won’t come in Legacy.
He definitely won’t come in 2025.
2026 at the soonest.
@@frenchfriedbagel7035he’s definitely coming in legacy
@@locusxe1411 Legacy ends early next year. Then Generations goes into the 13 primes. And of all the listings that have leaked, none of them are for Jetfire.
And literally everything that isn’t unique releases, commander classes, and titans have leaked.
And we can already figure out what the next commander is for generations.
i have been waiting for a revamped version of Armada Tidalwave forever
Tidal Wave: "TIDAL WAVE DESTROY WALLETS!!!"
Dude moment you pan to the head first thing I saw was chin
13:33 combined tidal wave Megatron looks like the Red Armored Power Ranger from PR lost galaxy.
My only complaint with this Transformer, and I'm surprised that no reviewer who's video I've watched has not pointed this out, is that he does not transform from ship to robot the way the 03 Armada release did without parts-forming. Just for clarity, I'm not referring to him breaking apart to form the Dark Fleet. I'm just referring to him being able to transform from ship to robot mode. Other than that, this guy looks AMAZING!!
Just to stack up on things, I really wish they have the Skyboom Shield and Requiem Blaster made for the Legacy line just to give us Overkill Megatron, which is Burning Megatron (the Tidal Wave combo) with the three Mini-Con weapons added.
I can only imagine the upgrade kit...
Edit: I'd rather cut the spring; less expensive.
They absolutely nailed it with this figure. Love your reviews. How long until we get the Energon repaint, you think? I can't wait to scoop both Tidal Wave. Always been one of my favorite characters and two part episode. My dad passed recently and I want to build a Diorama of all the voyager fighter Jetformers and Two Tidal Wave vs Two TopG Maverick figures since he served on a ship that launched jets and TopG is his favorite movie and Transformers was what we bonded over most. I miss you, old man. You're gone way too soon ❤.
He's giving me strong Sentai mech vibes with how he transforms and splits into 3 separate vehicles.
Even with a few disappointments (slightly smaller than other titans, can't transform from combined alt to robot without parts forming, no Ramjet buddy even when previous titans had Minicons partners) I can't help but love this dude, can't wait to get one for myself. I'd never played a game where the boss at the end of the level *is* the level...
Wonderful review, Emgo...😁👍 truthfully, I am like 80% for the skit part today...😆✌ Hey, anything from Blokee's ❓🤓
Amazing how the carrier part look with a micormaster aircraft would that be alittle closer to scale, Cool idea how to mass shift him to combine with Megs thou it leaves parts of the big guy looking odd. A great upgrade to the classic and more in size with what he was in the cartoon. I bet Toyhax will go nuts with a set of lables for him in time.
I would like to say this in a different way: With the size and all the guns this big guy has, a simple Bloosh isn't enough. You gotta go, Bloosh, Bloosh, BLOOOOOSH!!!!!!!!
Love it
I can't wait to get mine it's not gonna be till July 😢 but I can't wait cause I can do the precious comparison 😊
I love the bot within a bot
Missed opportunity not giving the leg panels seats for legends class figures. The gimmicks in Armada were really something else. Maybe not sideswipe... but most of the rest XD
Would’ve been cool if they found a way to make the mini pieces have their own mini tidal wave mode but overall it’s still a cool figure.
There's a third solution... You can replace the spring. You can either buy them separately or if you have junk Transformers for for custom making I'm sure there's a spring that may fit... Pretty much what I had to do with Triptacon
The knee issue sounds like the same one that plagued Trypticon. You think HASBRO would have learned.
26:53 looks like the SDF-1 Macross from Super Dimension Fortress Macross or from Robotech.
I would love to see a size comparison of an aircraft carrier portion of Tidal Wave (his arms) with Titans Return Broadside in carrier mode.
I'm so excited for him
I'm pretty sure I still have the original Tidal Wave around somewhere...He was a fun figure :)
I still have my original tidal wave I'm the only thing I'm missing is the two missiles that go into the bow sections of the battleship but I still have my ramjet minicon
I will say though that for the price they should have included the ramjet minicon and there's plenty of room for it in the aircraft carrier section.
Still happy this big boy got another curtain call
Tidal Wave! Tidal Wave! Tidal Wave!
Now all we need is megatrons fortress cockula as a 5 peace titan that can combine all the titan base modes together to make kayon city.
Now we need an upgrade kit to make the Lil alt modes to combine a make a mini tidal wave.
It would have been really neat if the parts for the Megatron combination also assembled into a tiny version of Tidal Wave's bot mode.
