30 minutes of video = about 30 hours of work
Good job!
its more than that
@@ivanchoo2006 he's specifically referring to my average for making reviews. And yeah, this one took 30-40 hours
@@TheLazyEyebrow i thought it was longer than 30 hours
And thank you all for doing this.
This set teaches us all that sometime an hour of parts forming is the way to go
Yea, just like my legoformers
I feel like I'm alone on this, but I like the idea of off-road, or wildrider being a truck. It diversifies the team much more in contrast to the aerialbots. In G1 you have a tractor-trailer, an F-1, and three sports cars. Like they were on to something, but kinda gave up half way through. In cw, you have a tractor-trailer, an F-1, A pickup, and, while there are still two sports cars, one is really boxy and the other is curvy, and they aren't the same limb. I like the asymmetricality (not a word, but do I care?) contrasting superion, who is just fighter jets say for silverbolt, but he's the torso, so it makes sense.
Agreed honestly, though I’d rather have a Breakdown based on his TFP appearance than have Off-Road replace Wildrider
You've got a new subscriber. I really like the style of your work. Your spoken reviews are clearly spoken and you don't tend to repeat yourself constantly. Your filming style, especially during transformation is excellent too. I'm already looking forward watching your older posts.
haha thanks for the kind words = )
Mmmm.... Shadow the Hedgehog flavour...
mmmm oh that's the stuff
Ow the edge
I like bruised grape
Shit
@Motormaster studios yeah mk 3 is good
Transformation just seems too much like a chore, I'm fine with my simplified and cheaper CW version, I still dig it.
+TFanPage101 haha, and that's totally ok man = P
I do prefer this, but not by all that much
Coughs and Sneasels, Spread Diseasels (I DIDN'T EVEN REALIZE IT WAS ACTUALLY IN THE VIDEO UNTIL AFTER POSTING THIS COMMENT).
I will never look at U-hauls the same way again
Dude same
Alpha bravo came to be by devastator tearing superion in half and quickslinger took so much damage that he couldn't be repaired so they replaced him with alpha bravo
5:01
ha ha, very funny.
*Thomas memes take over*
NO WAIT, NO NO NO!!!!
Diesel is actually based of a BR 08 Shunter.
That’s true don’t forget splatter and dodge
Yeah
I got it
Diesel 10
22:50 YES! YES! ALL OF MY SPARE YES! Thank you! Awesome reference, man! You have won my respect!
i take like little to no credit for that. Thew actuallu recorded the lines fpr the short in this review (since he made it in the first place = P)
Oh well, good on you anyway for adding that in yourself.
@@TheLazyEyebrow Why am I just learning on this crossover of two of my favorite channels?
If you had waited longer, you probably could've gotten the TransformMission Menasor set. Just saying, but they definitely were the kings of the road.
The Homestar Runner reference alone makes this review golden! 🤣😂
1:00 OMG YOU MADE A REFERENCE TO ONE OF MY FAVORITE THOMAS EPISODES!!
Yes
?
@@thedogmen.
Coughs and sneasles, spread diseasels!
@@ZstackZip 👍
Kinda surprising how accurate this figure is to IDW
Wow, a lot of dedication to the daunting format you set. Makes for a great watch!
It's why I do it = )
thanks
You’ve got your self another sub. Hope you have a good 2021
Eyebrow man is back!
oh hi thew, fancy meeting you here :p
So, this has been bothering me for a while, but why didn't you get the PE Menasor chest and head upgrade? It not only fixes the legs but gives him a better head. You spent the money on the hands and legs, but like with Superion, that was only half the upgrade
i actually didn't spend the money on hands and feet for Menasor (wrong review to be asking this btw = P)
the hands and feet I bought were for superion at first, but then i bought proper hands and feet for the jets and gave the black ones to Defensor.
however, the PE set (for the H/F and the chest upgrade) doesn't fix Menasor at all. yes, it looks better. but, aside from that it actually makes menasor even worse by the fact that waist and thigh articulation is removed entirely so that the plastic upgrade can wrap around and give a permanent A-stance.
it improves the look while making him a static figure. as an animator, that's about the worst idea ever for my needs
Fair enough, I suppose
what made you review with stop motion and not with your hands I guess It makes sense with the channel name "lazy eyebrow reveiwer", no offense for using that name almost so heavily
6:54 who remembers a time when u could say fortnight without thinking bout competitive gameplay
Oh man, i was already going to say this review was incredibly good, and then the Teen Girl Squad homage put it over the top! :D
The engineering on this set is impressive but it's too complex to be fun. I also didn't care for some of the vehicle modes and how the gestalt legs are superfluous, just attaching overtop. I gave up after the first two cars kept nearly cutting my hands during transformation.
I do agree on the complexity taking away a bit of how fun it could be, I dread taking it apart sometimes, especially when I have to move. Mainly because I know I gotta book like half an hour to put it all back together
As for the legs though. I kinda don't exactly mind because that's how the G1 figure was in a way. Especially in the cartoon. When you have a giant trailer to figure out what to do with, it sorta makes sense for it to help out in the leg department. In the end I think it pulled off a pretty neat look
And thanks = D
This video, made me appreciate your work more than I have in the past, also loving the Thew connection, keep up the good stuff dude.
+swalstar That's not to say I didn't appreciate it in the past, just something about your delivery appealed more to me this time, I felt a connection..ha ha
dude...it's like we're connected.... = P jk
for real, thanks! = D
I’m about to find out how well these scale with modern WFC Generations figures
How well?
22:50 WOOO TEEN GIRL SQUAD JOKE! That classic Homestar Runner bit!
Zoids BN thank Thew! he wrote the joke! = D
I bet by now, this group scales with the Siege/Earthrise/Kingdom figures.
I cannot wait for you to review legacy Motormaster. it is an AMAZING figure.
“Good Morning...” Purred Motormaster in an oily voice...
Heheyyy! Thanks for the nod to my fan-modes! Nice review man
well thanks for the pictures in return. it really did make him look good
Amazing review, very detailed and now making me think of buying this!
It's super complex, but suuuuuuuper worth it
+The Lazy Eyebrow Reviewer congrats on 2004 subs keep it up!
I am?! whoa! awesome! thanks for the compliment and for notifying me! = D
+The Lazy Eyebrow Reviewer no problem and I loved how you made a really complex figure really simple to understand! :)
+The Lazy Eyebrow Reviewer Im late to this but, what would have been alot cooler if Motormater could turn into a car carrier instead of a box truck, that way he could carry the stunticons and it would make a little more sense in a racing/stunt team
I like breakdown the most it's probably the vehicle mode
Excellent review. Love the perspective and the comedic elements. subscribed!
Agreed Diesel is a chore but a hella awesome one!!! Transform him a few times and it becomes intuitive. Love this set
Agreed and thanks! = D
8:27 I'm empathy this flaw,
I had cracked downforce's glass........
the possible repairing plan:DMY D-06 Upgrade Kit
motor master stays the same because cab over trucks are awesome.
also I don't get why people are afraid of parts forming I had g1 figures. I didn't know non parts forming was a thing, wait it wasent when I was wondering.
I think Motormaster’s alt mode shouldn’t include the trailer, it would make him gigantic.
Looks at Ultramagnus....
The Lazy Eyebrow yeah lol
Him: “the only time I’ve seen Hasbro add a trailer pivot is dark of the moon Megatron and mp-22”
Hasbro later that year: cw ultra Magnus
I love watching these reviews. Stop-motion is something I adore (Used to dabble in it myself) and I actually considered doing something like this when I started my channel (But starring a far more humorless bellend, i.e. me). But looking at all this, just imagining the work you put into these videos makes my arms tired.
I think i've just found one of my new favourite channels
loved the discussion about scale/size
+Avi Mintz thank you = )
Great review and I'm looking to find a set still also at 22:00 is that Thew Adams
21:52 he should’ve said “rinse and repeat and you’ll have to feet.”
Good Morning... Purred Motormaster in an oily voice...
5:01 "...in and out he creeps about like a big black wesal..."
If i were to redo the stunticons as of today, Wildrider-488gtb Deadend-Panamara 4S Breakdown-Aventador Dragstrip-LFA (or maybe some McLaren) and motormaster can be some hench looking modern cabover thats in production
Chocolate Chip Pop-Tarts and Frosted Chocolate Fudge Pop-Tarts are the way.
Digging the early IDW style of this Menasor; did you ever get any version of the MP scaled Transform Mission "Havoc"??
I wonder if the cyberverse figures scale well with them like the good ones
I’m glad your Season 4 wasn’t just a glorified multi-parter that Japan replaced with a sequel series
The Lazy Eyebrow Reviewer you videos are awsome!!!!
Downforce's vehicle mode looked like one of those mini 4wd by Tamiya. Specifically, the Cyclone magnum only colored yellow.
Damn man you reviews are the fucking best...WOW...Subscribed.
Once again, another awesome video. Great job! :D
Thanks!
Im not only watching this for the review. Im watching mostly for the stopmotion
5:24 Don't forget Combiner Wars Leader Ultra Magnus!
dang it! how could I?! rhat thing is just as awesome!
Going to get this guy this year
That main Body for Menasor is as Gundam as it can get, showing off a Zz Full armor Looks.
The Teen Girl Squad homage was a true joy.
"American" flavor:
Red- Strawberry
White- Vanilla
Blue- Blueberry
breakdown is american
Maybe the stunticons landed at a road so downforce just picked that road-safe F1.
Dude this is an awesome review and why won't there be a cw devastator review I mean I've seen plenty it reviews on it but it's probably too big for you to review right
well I'm sure I would make room for the review. though I am still working on expanding the size to metroplex proportions
the real reason is I have a Devastator already that I enjoy and is roughly in scale with the rest of my combiners
Thank you for your best videos! :) The head of Motormaster as same the Golion/Voltron :D
I got this toy today, and transforming it is such a pain the neck. It took me hours before I finally got Menasor together, because the instruction manual is so unclear, and especially Motormaster has so many moving parts, ratchets and flaps... it is just not funny anymore.
If you are wanting to buy it, turn it into Menasor, put it on your shelf, and leave it there... the transformation process is obnoxiously difficult.
Aside from Motormaster’s robot mode I think you could fudge these guys into the modern legends scale
No need to, magic square is making legends class stunticons.
I couldn't stop laughing after the u haul joke
+LBSC 108 hahaha glad you enjoyed
Combiner wars devastator is so big because Hasbro realised that the combined modes of the other combiners are too small compared to other figures but didn't want to resise all of the others and we have this dichotomy between the proper scale with normal C.H.U.G figures and the scale with the other combiners and now I remember Warbotron.
Even though having them being apart of the same sires they are still really cool when they have a good combiner mode but I still like all the combiner wars toys even menasor and I like the scrabble city mechanic.
Very impressive review :) I think I like his Menasor mode better than his individual modes, it just looks more g1 I guess lol. Keep up the great work!!! :)
+DarkMatrixStudios haha that's what I love the most about it = P
thanks! will do!
FINALLY! Great work! Awesome review as always, hey have you seen the Warbotron Bruticus? That thing is a sexy beast
haha I've seen him. but I think I'm going to aim for the CW set though = P
and glad you enjoyed = )
as you're much better with scale and you noted it with Skywarp, just how big would each combiner be? obviously for Bruticus and Defensor you can resize components to fit the rest more, but would the others work sorry?
Good question. Superion should absolutely tower over menasor. Idk about the others though
I don't mind the 30-minute long video...worthy to watch anyway
Thew Adams!
He’s a great guy just because he beats the living hell out of bad bootlegs
OHMYGOSH!!! Downforce startled me so much!
These guys would scale so well with WFC, hotdayumn
I bought a wild Berry poptart in 2019 were they brought back because I cannot explain it if they are discontinued?????
They brought them back in 2018 as limited edition runs, but somehow they're still going
I buy a box whenever i see them because I don't know when they'll stop making them again haha
Holy shit! I wanna buy this set just for the sword and super gun!!!
Actually, I can see the other Stunticons making Drag Strip into the butt of a joke for being street-legal.
"Oh nooo! Look out, Autobots! Here comes Drag Strip! Better be careful or he'll signal his turns properly!"
"I think they'll be alright. So long as they go ONE MILE FASTER than the speed limit!"
"Shut up, you guys!!"
Oh jeez... if I wasn't already a subscriber, that Teen Girl Squad bit would've done it. lmfao!
Credit where credit is due, that bit was from Toygrind's G1 Menasor review haha (in fact, he re-recorded the lines for this video voluntarily when I asked if I could reuse the joke a year prior. Absolute champ that guy)
23:07 PERSONALITY CLASH!!!
Ow! My stability....
Nice 4 Gregs reference
thecianinator it's actually Thew's reference, but he gave me permission to use it = P
It just dawned on my that Dead End's head is inaccurate to the cartoon because it's supposed to be based off of the G1 toy head.
Not partsforming, it's super smart combiner piece storage
22:56 love the thew reference
Ahh, back when third party figures weren't trying to be the next rotf prime
So far I have the new deluxe Legacy dragstrip, one down 4 to go
Man it's such a shame that basically the entire legs are formed by Motormaster. Hopefully future 3P releases can have the legs actually formed by the cars.
Oh wait...
Oh no...
Oh we didn't know how good we had it...
WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERES ONE THATS BASICALLY ENTIRELY FORMED WITHOUT HAVING TO GET *ANY* OF THE ACTUAL FIGURES!?
That part of the trailer that comes off should've just became a weapon rack like from the Studio Series DOTM Optimus.
Saw Emgo's review before but I'm glad to see that yours was done one year later and thus, solid comparisons with Combiner Wars.
I hate CW Menasor. This set will be perfect on my CW/POTP/Select combiners shelf.
You may or may not want to wait. There's a leaked War For Cybertron leader class Menasor happening apparently
@@TheLazyEyebrow
Never heard of it. Not even as a rumor. If true it may be just a heavy retool of the CW Onslaught mold. Then released as a Takara Select set like for Abominus, Volcanicus, or God Neptune.
Note: if you own the G2 version of these guys, for the legs, you will have to transform the cars a bit.
Great review, when I saw this guy I kind of wanted him but I might pass due to how hard it is to transform Diesel, they look great in all of there modes but that complex transformation though. I love the Thew bit you threw in there, I can't wait to see more of your reviews! :)
thanks! can't wait to film them! = D
also, I can't remember what inspired me to preorder these things. at the time I was all like "yeah, they look alright. I'm getting married though so who knows" and then I got a job making 23/hr. saw my paycheck, said why not, preordered all of them, tjen got laid off two days later.
so there's the story behind this figure = P
+The Lazy Eyebrow Reviewer that's a awesome story, I can't wait to see what you have cooking for the next review :)
+The Lazy Eyebrow Reviewer Sorry to hear that about the job! Looks like things worked out eventually?
Fantastic review! Considering what you had to do, I'm surprised it was this SHORT!
Eventually. Got married, job hopped, found a good one, moved to BC and got a good job again.
And I'm glad you enjoyed = )
I loved the thew reference
You lied to us, it was 16 seconds
I'm pretty sure that Wild berry Pop Tarts aren't discontinued, at least not where I'm at.
RileyTNT there are store brand versions too, I've seen clover valley brand wild berry toaster tarts where I live.
I really enjoyed the Thew homage. In fact, I'd say this is your best review yet. However, I think this figure really has too many flaws to justify its very expensive price. I suppose it's slightly better than the Hasbro version, but I still wouldn't fork out for it.
haha fair enough. on a side note. I don't know if that counts as an homage. i mean, yeah I filmed it, but Thew himself actually rerecorded his lines for this review = D
will u review combiner wars bruticus, Magnus, &/or MP star saber?
yes, maybe, and nope
Shadow the hedgehog flavour for the wild rider 😂😂😂 got a laugh out of that
lol
strong bad reference!!
+Ben Bisanti shadow is awesome
+hotrod271ftw heh yeah lol
How much $$$ for this version of Stunticons?? All five of them please...
coolest revew ever!!!
I could see myself repainting motor master as a Uhaul... Id call it WEhaul
1:00 coughs and sneezels spread desisels
Thomas referance I'm so happy I noticed that
Y'know.. Before Magic Square, every 3P Motormaster was either partsforming hell or origami hell. I really do think the method they went for there/the method they're going for in Legacy is the right way to go, this set does not look fun.
when they say its only for one night but they got the green top
Reclaim that U-Haul=Sub
