I don’t own nor will I ever own any of these toys. But the fn engineering behind one of these things is amazing. The people who figured out how to make these are absolute artists.
AGAIN! THANK YOU!!! Got Sideswipe and Sunstreaker today. Thanks to you, Sideswipe transformed into robot mode! Love these videos!!!! I owe you so much!
Oh btw, that hood piece is tabbed in via hook tabs (so there was a really good chance you could have snapped those off because you're pushing out and down on the hood). What you can do is push upwards where the wheels used to be after they have been flipped down and easily free the hood from the hook tabs then rotate it down. I just got the figure, 60 bucks was a steal and it's probably my favorite masterpiece so far.
an interesting note from a certified lamborghini nut here. that countach has the early "periscope" roof panel from the countach lp400 mixed with the wheel flares that didn't appear until the countach lp400S from 1978. not that it matters......
Fur Gulley I've just noticed that the wheels look a lot like the ones on the legendary Walter Wolf Countach (Bravo?). What if Sideswipe was actually inspired by said car?
Thanks emgo316! Yours are always the videos I go to when transforming my MP the first time. My lambor's tab is way too big for the slot on his front bumper. Oh well...
i envy your appreciation and contentment of what you have.. you're not bothered of what people say about those toys; if they like it or what. i salute you men... great reviews..
Man just picked up sideswipe today got it from China took forever but man he is badass and I'm watching your review on sideswipe right now can't wait to figure out how to transform them oh yeah
I am so glad I have him too. I am go. He is truly a masterpiece phenomenon. Love the robot mode. I absolutely love the Lamborghini mode. Just absolutely astonishing.
Decided to come back and watch this one after being offered the G2 version. It’s a nice, solid looking figure. I wish Badcube had done a G2 version of their’s.
Just picked up another one of these KO as my last one was a crappy rag doll of an affair with a broken windscreen. This one is beautiful, far better than my last one.
Hey how tall is this figure in robot mode compared to the length in car mode. I'm wondering the same with other figures too because that would give a nice indication of how big would TF characters be in real life.
Awesome review as always Emgo! I think it's worth the $54 plus $20 shipping I paid for it from AmiAmi, but I think BBTS's price is kinda pushing it. Oh, and the cutaway gag was funny as usual
I def agree about the box size for the cars. when I got Wheeljack it was pretty jarring compared to my Shockwave. I think they should have made the cars at least a little bigger.
I was sitting here, covering my mouth. Oh my goodness he's gonna break it! xD It's a really pretty model, and it looks tight and durable. I'll be buying this one. Much thanks. ^^
I have seen pics of horrendous paint jobs on MP-Lambor and from what I could see from ur vid, it looks like you where one of the lackey ones who got a good paint job! Are there any paint defects on ur Sideswipe and where did you order yours from?
I don’t know what is it about it but emgo’s mic in these older videos pick up every little noise the toy makes, that may also have something to do with toys from 10+ years ago had nicer plastic anyway I’m going off topic, what I’m trying to say is these older emgo videos are really satisfying to listen to not to mention watch.
Hey Amgo what’s up i’m like this I just recently ordered the MP 12 sideswipe it’s not gonna get here till June which is odd to me but in any case it’s eBay so what can you say butt this is what I’m saying I see no problem with the size of the masterpiece I think the masterpiece sideswipe is a perfect scale with masterpiece Optimus prime because when you size up a Lambo with an 18 wheeler that’s the actual size just about so MP 12 sideswipe Is perfect clean transformation as a Lamborghini clean transformation as a robot can’t get any better than that
Good Day Emgo I ordered Side Swipe last Week and waiting for him to arrive From Your video He looks better than ebay advertisement I do have Sunstreaker So had to get his Bro Be Safe and Play On!!!!
Yes, he's hard to find, and the price has jumped way up. I hope they do him like MP-Soundwave and release a 2nd wavw, also drop the price. I notice they have also dropped the price on MP-Soundwave by $30!
Back when these MP's started, I had thought the original idea was to make master piece transformers at a high quality and awesome size. Now to only years later be disappointed that their trying to scale them in because of the collectors. "Oh well in the tv show he is suppose to be this size" IMO that should of never been relevant, a tall high quality G1 should of been where its at, which is why I don't personally care for MP-10, vs 2005 original release. EITHERWAY, I bought MP 12, and enjoy the hell out of him. Just like I will do with the rest. I mean, with sideswipe and bumblebee, we could have at least gotten diecast. Love them binaltech, okay enough talking, thanks very much for the video. Wonderful MP overall. :D
No,emgo only reviews one mold of a masterpiece,so he didnt do alot like g2 sideswipe,bluestreak and smokescreen and seekers etc...it doesn't mean he doesn't own them tho
I think the thing that puts me off buying g1 figures is that in robot mode the look really simple but then i watch the video and completely changes my perspective
I see a lot of them on dealer websites for 35$ from highly rated sellers so I'm not sure if they're ripping me off or not or if it's a knock-off, any thoughts?
Yeah, they are knock offs for sure. I suggest going to RocketPunchArmy to tell differencies between the two (although there are not too many). I am honestly getting a KO silverstreak,as i cannot afford a legit one.
Yea I read more into the listings and all the way down past all the fun package and figure art was a message "*Is a knock-off version of the figure" =(
If there is one thing they should fix up on this guy when the do a 2.0 version of him is to give him bright colour cartoon accurate looks a changeable face plate and make his chest look more flush with the body I think his chest looks a little too wide so yeah those are the 3 things I think they should do for him
Хобби
I don't get why sideswipe wasn't a lambo in the bay films (although the stingray was beautiful)
yt b probably liscensing issues
poopy pidgeon224 Lockdown?
Licensing issues, plus Bay had made a deal with General Motors to showcase mainly their cars in the first 2 films
Probably some deal with chevy
@@acoote1701 That is why Bumblebee became a Camaro.
Man, I envy people so much who own Materpieces and 3rd party figures, there so cool!
Shockwave640 i agree
Shockwave640 I order this guy today, my daughter and I have a small collection of transformers feel free and check em out. Emgo got me hooked
Good for you! I hope your collection grows and prospers!
@Shockwave640 can’t agree more
The KO of Sideswipe is 35 bucks. The KO of $280 Starscream is 80 bucks. Not so bad.
G1 sideswipe really holds up, aside from articulation his robot mode and vehicle mode both look really good and he has an amazing headsculpt.
I don’t own nor will I ever own any of these toys.
But the fn engineering behind one of these things is amazing. The people who figured out how to make these are absolute artists.
Hey emgo, since you don't like throwing masterpiece boxes, from now on if you get a masterpiece figure, you should just get a random box and throw it
Or throw the figure instead! :D
Smart idea.
Yes
Abigail's Corner you think he would really do that
Or throw Mascot
AGAIN! THANK YOU!!! Got Sideswipe and Sunstreaker today. Thanks to you, Sideswipe transformed into robot mode! Love these videos!!!! I owe you so much!
Cool
Awesome. The skit was one of your best. Only lil Lambor I can think of is wst Lambor. (you had me scrambling to remember a small one.)
Oh btw, that hood piece is tabbed in via hook tabs (so there was a really good chance you could have snapped those off because you're pushing out and down on the hood).

"A lot of people think he's not worth the money because he's so small" - and then the WFC scale shrink and price hikes arrived...
If ony the rear wheels did the same as the front so I can make a hover Countach
Galaxie you predicted the transformers x bttf crossover that is a heavy remold of a sideswipe and the wheels can flip
@@chaoticproductions3922 oh my god.
Gotta love sideswipe best of the masterpiece autobot cars like all of the masterpieces I have but really love the design on him
an interesting note from a certified lamborghini nut here. that countach has the early "periscope" roof panel from the countach lp400 mixed with the wheel flares that didn't appear until the countach lp400S from 1978. not that it matters......
Fur Gulley I’m actually super glad I’m not the only one who noticed that
Fur Gulley I've just noticed that the wheels look a lot like the ones on the legendary Walter Wolf Countach (Bravo?). What if Sideswipe was actually inspired by said car?
He doesn’t know the car model
Thanks emgo316! Yours are always the videos I go to when transforming my MP the first time. My lambor's tab is way too big for the slot on his front bumper. Oh well...
Awesome skit at the end, as always! Can't wait for that Soundwave review!
I was crying at the video. Well, the intro 😂
4 valve 12 cylinder
Now you’re speaking my language, mascot!
i envy your appreciation and contentment of what you have.. you're not bothered of what people say about those toys; if they like it or what. i salute you men... great reviews..
Love ur reviews man!
Man just picked up sideswipe today got it from China took forever but man he is badass and I'm watching your review on sideswipe right now can't wait to figure out how to transform them oh yeah
Great review emgo. Funny as always
I am so glad I have him too. I am go. He is truly a masterpiece phenomenon. Love the robot mode. I absolutely love the Lamborghini mode. Just absolutely astonishing.
bro i died when the minion mascot guy went with the casual nope to ur question emgo
Decided to come back and watch this one after being offered the G2 version.
It’s a nice, solid looking figure. I wish Badcube had done a G2 version of their’s.
Just picked up another one of these KO as my last one was a crappy rag doll of an affair with a broken windscreen.
This one is beautiful, far better than my last one.
the first week of school is BAD!
Natasha Kiser it's better than the rest except for the last week of school
Just got mine and love it
the Lamborghini Countach was released in 1974 and is widely known as the very first supercar
Hey how tall is this figure in robot mode compared to the length in car mode. I'm wondering the same with other figures too because that would give a nice indication of how big would TF characters be in real life.
Awesome review emgo! Cool figure indeed!! Will have to pick this one up for sure!! Lol skit was wicked funny!!
The ending skit is hilarious. Man I wish I subscribed earlier
Awesome review as always Emgo! I think it's worth the $54 plus $20 shipping I paid for it from AmiAmi, but I think BBTS's price is kinda pushing it. Oh, and the cutaway gag was funny as usual
4.14 "You can close that up. Bam, review done.

I def agree about the box size for the cars. when I got Wheeljack it was pretty jarring compared to my Shockwave. I think they should have made the cars at least a little bigger.
Loving the skits.
“I haven’t broken anything on camera yet!”
In before G1 Abominus.
Where to best buy the figures? Ebay or rather as new one?
I had the OG Sideswipe. 😥😋 The good old days.
I was sitting here, covering my mouth. Oh my goodness he's gonna break it! xD It's a really pretty model, and it looks tight and durable. I'll be buying this one. Much thanks. ^^
V 12 and a 4 cylinder now i would love to see that awesome vid man
Here I am years later still wondering where he got that tanktop from the background
I think I am starting to hear that intro sound in my sleep
looks great!! get red alert too.
Your video was very helpful , thank you
Nice review. My Sideswipe has a couple paint defects, but nowhere near the problems others have encountered.
Thank you for this video.
My figure can't slide in vehicle mode as the crotch part lines below the wheels. Is there anyone having the same issue?
On Ebay you can get this figure for like $27
ebay is good,u have to watch out for scams on there,i got 3 items was scams,ebay didnt refound me for one elso
Here is Lambor or we know him as Sideswipe. It sounded funny the way you said it
I have seen pics of horrendous paint jobs on MP-Lambor and from what I could see from ur vid, it looks like you where one of the lackey ones who got a good paint job! Are there any paint defects on ur Sideswipe and where did you order yours from?

Mascot just blew my mind. Cool :)
Best intro ever!
i love how he said v12 then said 4 cylinders XD
That’s all just gibberish to me. Just read what I saw online lol
@@emgo316 XD thanks for the reply! nice to see u active after all this time :)
If only I would have known about these MP’s eight years ago I have been able to afford them then! 😢
I just received mine today. This has a lot of steps to it (like a puzzle), but is still cool.
Same!, thinking of getting another one
so cool i like it. its savonn
Link to buy it plz
Oh so precious!!!!
How much was this figure? And was it the official or unofficial re-issue?
I may be late but on Amazon Prime it was 35 dollars
I hope they release all these masterpieces here... don't wanna pay extra....
Hey Amgo what’s up i’m like this I just recently ordered the MP 12 sideswipe it’s not gonna get here till June which is odd to me but in any case it’s eBay so what can you say butt this is what I’m saying I see no problem with the size of the masterpiece I think the masterpiece sideswipe is a perfect scale with masterpiece Optimus prime because when you size up a Lambo with an 18 wheeler that’s the actual size just about so MP 12 sideswipe Is perfect clean transformation as a Lamborghini clean transformation as a robot can’t get any better than that
Saving up for one!!!!
Good Day Emgo
I ordered Side Swipe last Week and waiting for him to arrive
From Your video He looks better than ebay advertisement
I do have Sunstreaker
So had to get his Bro
Be Safe and Play On!!!!
I like the Transformation of Lambor from car to robot. Is this the same mold as Red Alert?
What are the pile drivers?
very cool
I hear the toon version of this toy had been discontinued is that true?
I don’t know. Sorry
Lol! Excellent test and funny ;) !
I've just bought him, waiting for him to get here.
Awsome!! Thanks a lot Sir :-)
Yes, he's hard to find, and the price has jumped way up. I hope they do him like MP-Soundwave and release a 2nd wavw, also drop the price. I notice they have also dropped the price on MP-Soundwave by $30!
Ordered this recently but I think the one I'm waiting on is a ko as it was just over 20 quid
Is it just me or does anyone else notice that the sinyness of the plastic to the point that he looks like he is made of diecast
uh emgo powercore combiners but still funny vid man you rock
Mascot is being realistic. Who can say all features in a car and know what that all means?
Will you ever do a video of MP01 Optimus Prime
Masterpiece unicron is gonna be huge!
In the next coming masterpiece reviews, you should bring another box to throw
how do u get that cool animation 4 ur avatar
I bought both mo12/12+. Both of them the windshield clips snapped
Although this figure kicks ass, no jet pack or pile driver for his hands?
does takara have to get promishon from lamborgini

DAT INTRO
AMAZING
love sideswipes design
When did you post this video I think my date thing is glitched.
I like this
Did you review the master piece g2 side swipe
No,emgo only reviews one mold of a masterpiece,so he didnt do alot like g2 sideswipe,bluestreak and smokescreen and seekers etc...it doesn't mean he doesn't own them tho
being bigger than a dwluxe doensnt it makes sideswipe a voyager?
ajeet gieron they don't really class the size of a Masterpiece transformers, but in a way yeah
I think the thing that puts me off buying g1 figures is that in robot mode the look really simple but then i watch the video and completely changes my perspective
Now im going to my offices to play with my self XD that was funny
gonna get this and masterpiece prowl for my birthday!!!
Did you get it?
I see a lot of them on dealer websites for 35$ from highly rated sellers so I'm not sure if they're ripping me off or not or if it's a knock-off, any thoughts?
Yeah, they are knock offs for sure. I suggest going to RocketPunchArmy to tell differencies between the two (although there are not too many). I am honestly getting a KO silverstreak,as i cannot afford a legit one.
Yea I read more into the listings and all the way down past all the fun package and figure art was a message "*Is a knock-off version of the figure" =(
If there is one thing they should fix up on this guy when the do a 2.0 version of him is to give him bright colour cartoon accurate looks a changeable face plate and make his chest look more flush with the body I think his chest looks a little too wide so yeah those are the 3 things I think they should do for him
Wasn't prime a voyager?
will this Figure have a US release mr Emgo??
how much did you pay for it
my gf and i cracked up laughing at the end of the video when optimus got his new toy and said he was going to play with himself
when he talks about the range of movement of the legs did anybody else think "bumblebee quit lubricating on the human" ?
