That MMC figure is probably the most articulate figure you will ever get. If you ever need a drawing reference, you can probably put it into any pose to help you.
Hey Thew, I was the guy who sent Megatron and Optus, Sorry the prime wasen't for you but I'm glad you loved Megatron Also, the Optimus Prime Cosplay was one I made many years ago, unfortunatly it was breaking apart and i had to scrap it, I still have the Helmet somewhere so part of it still survived
Third-Party Engineers: For my next trick, I will fold up 40 square cm of robot skin into a little solid prism of plastic while using only 30(!) pin hinges! Per side!
To be fair, MMC isn’t usually like that. I’ve definitely had figures that *are* like that, and the spaghetti engineering is annoying, but MMC is actually pretty good about it when it comes to their engineering.
@@InfernalBanana True. I am being a little unfair claiming that it's _all_ 3P engineers. Call it a reaction to be so very spoiled by the amazing designs out there for those who want to have posable and fascinating figures. We do truly live in a golden age for this hobby.
Im tempted to send him my FansToys Motormaster. It was lauded by reviewers like Skullface for being a pinnacle of engineering....took me three hours to get to vehicle and back 😅
With Optus Prominon (MMC Optimus) I think you can pop the hip skirt back in. It’s not the easiest thing, but if you straighten the skirt assembly out and keep it vertical relative to the waist you can slide that peg back in. Did it enough myself to know how to fix it.
My dad recently got a KO of MP Megatron. Watching him try to transform it was an absolute joy. He got fed up with the instructions and asked me to pull up a video. That's a memory that will stay with us forever. And now I want one. (PS, I also have the MP Skywarp. I absolutely LOVE it.)
As someone with limited third party experience (one of which being the pexus version of your optus), I've found that they do feel quite good once you get to know them. And I think that's the point where most breakages happen, during the learning process. I broke the back knee filler pieces out of my own misunderstanding, but aside from that he feels quite durable. They are a kind of special beast, you gotta learn how to play with them on their terms. If you try to force them to play by your rules, they're probably gonna snap. For example, I learned that you gotta bend the knees back, then pull them straight to line up the inner leg piece so it goes in the hole when transforming to alt mode. If they don't slide in, they will cause problems and you won't be able to do it, and if you force it, the little clips will break. Now I know, and hopefully you do too. and also that hip piece will go back in, unless the peg is broken, but I didn't see any remnants in the hole. The fingies on mine don't feel like they're going to snap any time soon, and he does come with a few spares just in case. I have had eris's hand explode on me twice, but that's only because it's not glued together. And I'd much rather pick up the fingers and palm and reassemble the hand, rather than have it snap and I have to replace one of the fingers. I do agree that you don't *need* individual knuckles for each finger, but when it's done well (like on optus, eris, and the big overlord we got) it is quite fun. You sacrifice utility for mobility. You can still hold pretty much anything fairly well if you take the time to get all the fingers in place, but it is hard to get a firm grip on anything that wasn't designed specifically to be held by that figure. However, what you can do instead is a whole lot of fun gestures. You can flip the bird, do the finger circle, thwip webs, the star trek thing, you really have no limit.
You don't know true terror until you try to transform the first MP Megatron, with the trigger split into his lower shins... I've had it for over 20 years now and I've only ever transformed him to gun mode ONCE! I was so terrified that I was going to break something, snap off a tab, or shatter one of the multiple fiddly-as-f*ck hinges on that thing... Trying to figure out the Japanese instructions was a nightmare in itself! Thank you again for everything you do, Thew!
that optus figure’s hip skirt that came off can go back on that same thing happened to me but a shame it isn’t your cup of tea that figure is seriously awesome
Damn Thew, everywhere I look, that Optus Prominon, 3rd party IDW Orion Pax, is sold out or ridiculously expensive. The fact that it's supernaturally articulated always amazes me. I was gonna offer to buy it, but a giveaway IS better!!! Here's hoping!!
Kind of surprised NO 3P, and their obsession with Cartoon Accuracy, hasn't done a Sunbow Megs to overthrow MP Megs. (Considering MP's back looks like a mess) Took 'em awhile to get a good 3P SB Optimus, and even a Soundwave with both cartoon design and toy design as swappable parts.
I have one of the versions of the 3rd party MMC Optus Nox and he is a very, very articulated figure that can pull of just about any pose you can think of! Balanced well and just amazes me. I def want a couple more of the different versions.
For the record, afail, Unleash the Archers didnt use AI to write songs, just to make a music video. The idea was to fit in with the theme of machines/artificial life. Obviously fell flat, band apologized, said they aren't doing anything with AI again. Just wanted to clear that up. Have a great day, man. Keep on keeping on.
I remember that MMC Prime, as it got viral for how posable it is. Especially the previous use of the mold, *Optus Pexus!* That name is definitely the superior 3rd party name 😂👌! Shame the transformation turned you off though. I guess transformations that get complex ain’t for everyone.
I actually own the nemesis version of that Optimus and if you buy it it comes already in robot mode so the guy who sent thew that prime transformed it into truck mode then packed it up. Just Incase anyone's wondering
Thew, the mmc figure has an easier transformation than mp36. Thats the objective truth. the fact that you nearly got the mmc optimus right without a manual shows this. You wouldnt ever been able to transform that megs without a manual.
3:53 For the Unleash the Archers it wasn't song writing but they used AI to make artwork for a music video, according to them they paid the specific artist that the AI was trained on. doesn't look great though.. and even if it's true they paid him its still iffy..
16:12 "butt-flaps come down and outward, rotate this whole business before we go any further. This makes so much sense once you're inside it. " Oh, Thew, phrasing.
Hello thew long time follower and a huge fan. I found you maybe 10 years ago when I was looking for knockoff transformers videos. During covid you kept me entertained and I just wanted to let you know thank you for all the amazing content
Im tempted to send Thew my FansToys Motormaster....it was an impressive feat of engineering when it came out. I watch quite a bit of reviewers,such as Jobby,Skullface, Deluxe,Kato,TMReviews,Emgo,etc. But Thew was the first I found back in 2010. I like all kinds of metal,but me personally I am into old school black and death. Horns up!
To be honest, I kinda felt a similar way with how they released Missing Link Convoy. Except I wanted the cartoon/anime colors cab with the trailer. (I already owned a G1 toy colors Optimus, but I didn't own any G1 Prime trailers as it was one of the reissues that didn't come with the trailer) But instead of waiting it out and eventually missing out because it ran out of stock, I coughed up the ~$200 USD for both the Missing Link Convoys during the preorder period. And now that I have them both, I actually think I want to keep the toy colors one too because it feels a lot better to transform than my anime colors one. (As in it converts into truck mode way more smoother without any parts getting caught on eachother)
Had a bit of a surge of anxiety when Thew just casual-as-you-please slipped off the silencer from Megatron's barrell XD Maybe they did a running change later, but I remember when it first released that it was super tight and some people pulled off their barrels from the figure while trying to get the silencer off
Not sure if u got a particularly naff copy of R-48 but mines been fantastic so far (although I did get a different deco). Also one of the main selling points of that guy is the insane articulation so the individual knuckles make sense for him. MCC doesn't always hit the mark but I honestly think R-48 is by far one of their best offerings in years lol
I had trouble deciding which Missing Link to get, I ended up going with the toy colour version because I prefer my Optimus Prime's to come with an Autobot symbol on both shoulders but when Kapow Toys got the Animation version back in stock it looked so good I ended up ordering it as well.
Man I'm so jealous someone just gifted you that Megatron, I've been dreaming of owning that one since I started collecting. Maybe one day, I hope you enjoy him thew. Another great video
Of all the 3P figures for you to receive, the MMC Optus Pexus mold is to me one of the most intuitive and durable. It’s NUTS to me that it rubbed you in such a wrong way. Like listen our tastes aren’t always logical but I can’t believe you like Fanstoys Thomas but not this guy
I get where he's coming from tbh. Third-party usually tries so hard to be intricate that it's not a "fun" toy. You can't just mess around with it haphazardly or you'll break your $200+ purchase. There's a bit of anxiety about that. You become so protective of it, it may as well be an art statue you find a display for only to seldom ever touch again. It becomes a "serious" toy, instead of a fun little knick knack you can take with you to fiddle with wherever. Can't speak for Thew specifically, but I know I prefer official Generations style figures over third-party, or even official Masterpiece, for pretty much all the reasons I've written. Over the years I've fiddled with stuff like Peru Kill or MP Soundwave, but they seldom ever scratched the itch for me like Legacy United has been doing recently. Origins Wheeljack is terrific, btw. Tldr; it's all subjective. Some people want their collectables to be fancy works of value and engineering, but others just appreciate a fun, simple toy.
I waited years to get my hands on a MP36 I finally got a KO one and within days broke it trying to get 1 of his nappy flaps to move that's really really stiff I could see what was going to happen a mile off if I used to much pressure but I did it anyway !duuuh
Megatron has been missing from the MP refresh that’s been going on, like would the reissue the current MP version, do something new, or continue to neglect him cause it’s friggen megatron you can’t just ignore the decepticon leader. Although MP insecticons would be neat I’ve been on an insecticon binge recently due to the new 2 pack and venom being rumoured
About Void Rivals... it's entirely skippable if you're just enjoying the TF comics, etc. I got the first trade paperback, and it's *okay*, but there's barely any TF in there. A character appears and just leaves, and there's a background character that plays, essentially a trader... If you knew nothing about TF's they're just weird "aliens", etc... and for us, it's more of a "Oh, I know that!" but that's it. :P Mind you. If you just want to read some basic sci-fi that's predictable, but good none the less... go for it.
The Missing Link Optimus Prime in toon colors came with stickers to give it a optional toy look, so maybe you could have gone with that 🤷♂️? Now that it’s sold out I guess the only option left is trading with other collectors 😅😓…
That MMC Prime is not a figure that you try and Guess the transformation of, I hope that the skirt piece went back on, otherwise would anyone want it. I agree with you about 3rd party, I don't want a toy to think that it is better than me, I want to enjoy the proses of transforming it, That MMC Prime is not fun to Transform, so he is just on a Shelf in Bot mode
That MP Megatron is pretty impressive. Definitely not for me as a collector as I wouldn't have the patience or trust in myself to transform it and not break it. Third party options are an absolute no go as well as sometimes the quality is subpar to an official release and transformations are way to convoluted as demonstrated here to be any real fun despite the articulation. Missing Link Optimus is a neat idea conceptionally but I'm good with the G1 commemorative and be holding out for the 86 movie Commander later in the year. Just circle back on the Megatron, while I have absolutely no problem with him being reimagined as a tank it'll be interesting to see what Hasbro decides to do with his gun for in the upcoming 86 movie release. If not a gun how can they expect to present him accurately to the film.

I think Thew might be the only person I’ve seen that wasn’t blown away by Optus lol
The Optus Pexus mold is fantastic.
No figure in my collection can Jojo as well as my Optus Pexus. He's great.
@@dajokahbaby1506I want to be optimistic and say it’ll probably grow on him later when he actually has more time to get a feel for him.
Yep, looks like one of those Hasbro purists. One of the best Optimus figures ever made and this guy is calling it a cheap knock off.
Hey Thew, I was the guy who sent Megatron and Optus, Sorry the prime wasen't for you but I'm glad you loved Megatron
Also, the Optimus Prime Cosplay was one I made many years ago, unfortunatly it was breaking apart and i had to scrap it, I still have the Helmet somewhere so part of it still survived
I’m glad to see the package made it to you my friend! 🤙
Very cool

MMC Optimus is the most articulated TF figure I’ve ever seen, made by a 3p who has really good tolerances and plastics. shocked thew didn’t enjoy it.
Gawd that Megatron is impressive. Shame you didn't like the MMC Optimus, but it was delightful to see how you reacted to the MP MT
Two videos back to back?! We are so spoiled right now! Love ya thew
My dad recently got a KO of MP Megatron. Watching him try to transform it was an absolute joy. He got fed up with the instructions and asked me to pull up a video. That's a memory that will stay with us forever. And now I want one. (PS, I also have the MP Skywarp. I absolutely LOVE it.)
Someone has likely said but I believe that anime colours Missing Link comes with the stickers so you can make it look like toy colours.

If you have that Megatron, you'll never be without emergency splints and crutches if you turn an ankle around the house. 😂

Thank you again for everything you do, Thew!
That MMC is my favorite 3rd party toy of all time. And I still haven’t reviewed it.😂😂😂
"TRIGGER WARNING!!! AHAHAHAHHAHAHA!" Absolutely KILLED me! 🤣
The cartoon colors is missing link Optimus comes with a G1 toy sticker sheet
That optimus you got has so much articulation, its absolutely ridiculous
Glad you've talked about RUclips shorts. In my opinion you make them absolutely great. Waiting to see the next ones!
that optus figure’s hip skirt that came off can go back on that same thing happened to me but a shame it isn’t your cup of tea that figure is seriously awesome
Really like that picture of Skywarp, especially the teleportation effects.
Appreciate the muppet show reference at the beginning

Maybe they've admitted defeat and can't?

Have a great day, man. Keep on keeping on.
Amazing, they had to apologise for trying to use a.i for a music video about a.i
Very happy to see more frequent uploads here. Don't get burnt out or anything but the extra content is greatly appreciated
The shorts are great! Keep 'em coming Thew!

Hey man, as long as your "shorts" have an actual point to them, then you're doing better than the majority of people out there lol

Regarding third party figures: I'm quite fond of Eris Kultur's transformation! It's a lot of fun.
Excellent “Ma Na Ma Na” reference.
Seeing thew joyfully hold a pistol is so funny.
from what I hear, the cartoon coloured missing link prime comes with the toy style stickers
Mp-36 is my favorite transformer in my collection! I'm so happy you've had a go at it!
That tiger toy reminds me of a similar toy that they sell at the gift shops over at the Ft. Worth Zoo.
Hello thew long time follower and a huge fan. I found you maybe 10 years ago when I was looking for knockoff transformers videos. During covid you kept me entertained and I just wanted to let you know thank you for all the amazing content
I love War Within comics and the figures. The wheels on that thing are massive.
7:26 11 years to be exact
thanks for the double vids this week thew!
That Megatron would look great next to my Lego Optimus Prime.
Very nice. Now transform MP-36 back to a robot! 😉
Thats Optimus Discombobulatous😂
thanks for that heads up on unleash the archers D: tragic

Read the title an thought we were getting 40k Transformers lol. Great vid Thew will see you in the next one
For the Power Metal types I highly highly HIGHLY recommend Iron Savior.
Also,
I wouldn't mind some _Baypril_ centric YT Shorts for _Baypril,_ in between the more MEGA videos
Nice little unboxing vid for second last Saturday for March.
Not sure if u got a particularly naff copy of R-48 but mines been fantastic so far (although I did get a different deco). Also one of the main selling points of that guy is the insane articulation so the individual knuckles make sense for him. MCC doesn't always hit the mark but I honestly think R-48 is by far one of their best offerings in years lol
I have the exact same feeling towards Missing Link. I love the toy deco picking out the sculpt, but I don't need the trailer and bits.
That some guy released a review yesterday and it seems that the cartoon version has the toy deco stickers too!
I had trouble deciding which Missing Link to get, I ended up going with the toy colour version because I prefer my Optimus Prime's to come with an Autobot symbol on both shoulders but when Kapow Toys got the Animation version back in stock it looked so good I ended up ordering it as well.
Two Thew videos back to back!? I feel so spoiled!! Do a bloody third! Haha!
I got the the 40th anavery soundwave for my dad
he loves it
I could have sworn you’d name your spin-off gun channel “Pew Pew with Thew Thew”.
MP megs is user friendly, that's a new one
Love your channel. I can sit downstairs and just transform all my guys back and forth all day. With a scotch of course.
Thewwww!!! You are on fire mate. I loved this party of a video.
Honestly, I'm surprised the idea didn't come sooner for Shorts.
The idea was there, I just couldn't figure out how to produce portrait videos with my setup lol
Aaawweeei actually liked seeing haslabs unicron in the background tho….how much did it sell for 😂
I think Thew needs a full sized muppet of Animal in his life. :D
I love how someone theorized that reactivate reveal is soon souly due to you reviewing the toys XD
Man I'm so jealous someone just gifted you that Megatron, I've been dreaming of owning that one since I started collecting. Maybe one day, I hope you enjoy him thew. Another great video
I feel u shaun I'd kill to get that mp36 but I know I never will😢
Yeah, for the missing link I want the animated version with trailer.
Ironically I remember the first video i ever saw on your channel was the MX1-Apolyon
I've honestly and truly always wanted that mmc optimus since I was released. But I doubt I'll ever get it or mp36 with me being disabled.
On missing link cartoon edition, it allegedly calmed with stickers to make it look more like the toy version. Don’t know if you’re big on stickers.
Of all the 3P figures for you to receive, the MMC Optus Pexus mold is to me one of the most intuitive and durable. It’s NUTS to me that it rubbed you in such a wrong way. Like listen our tastes aren’t always logical but I can’t believe you like Fanstoys Thomas but not this guy
Not every toy is for everyone and that's okay.

Shockwave is Cyber Battalion not Authentics. Authentics Shockwave is styled like Cyberverse but turns into a similar but more cartoony jet.
I waited years to get my hands on a MP36 I finally got a KO one and within days broke it trying to get 1 of his nappy flaps to move that's really really stiff I could see what was going to happen a mile off if I used to much pressure but I did it anyway !duuuh
loved the original MMC figure but then they released this one which looks SO MUCH BETTER to me and now I'm mad lol.
Megatron has been missing from the MP refresh that’s been going on, like would the reissue the current MP version, do something new, or continue to neglect him cause it’s friggen megatron you can’t just ignore the decepticon leader.
Although MP insecticons would be neat I’ve been on an insecticon binge recently due to the new 2 pack and venom being rumoured
didn't the MP Megatron had electronics which has the late Japanese voice actor's lines from the G1 cartoon?
It used to yes
I was worried about transforming my mp36+ megatron. I have transformed it to a three times and chrome seems to be okay.
About Void Rivals... it's entirely skippable if you're just enjoying the TF comics, etc. I got the first trade paperback, and it's *okay*, but there's barely any TF in there.

If not a gun how can they expect to present him accurately to the film.
hi Thew. good day! i wanted to ask, have you seen the MM01 Optimus prime or do you have, or have your hands on it before?
Funny enough i just got a transformers shirt from primark
Anorher fantastic episode, so tight and brief.
Got my knockoff name submitted, should be a chuckle worthy one.
I hope that an MP Galvatron is just as good as that Megatron is
Another Beautiful video!
Baypril is coming back? Hell yeah!
Octopus Slime.
love the shorts by the way
Return of Chechen hitman Thew.
Missed opportunity to say "Dan-ke" while thanking Dan
My submission was: Octothorpe Pumpernickel.
Rouge limb does c sound like a mmc fig.
I do badly want the Shattered Glass version of that Optus figure.
