I love that "swoosh factor" is part of any review where a jet mode is involved. Sucks about Megalopolis. But enjoyed you taking every opportunity to slam them during the review. "You'll know you did it wrong if you got it from Megalopolis" made me nearly spit coffee on my screen.
Megalopolis: We're going to make your experience a living hell. Peaugh: Cool ... I'll return the favor in kind. Awesome review too. I'm digging this guy big time and want to get one. ... I'll make sure not to do it through Megalopolis.
Wow, if peaugh says "Don't order from these guys," that's pretty damning. I'm super excited about this guy. I love Apeface and can't wait for his partner. Even better that he looks great.
I tried ordering Studio Series Bumblebee Movie Blitzwing from them back in September, and they never sent it to me. Then, they changed their policy so that you CAN cancel in stock orders, but when I did they never refunded me. To this date, I have seen neither the figure nor the refund.
All those digs at megalopolis, hilarious! Though slightly foreboding since I pre-ordered 2 of their exclusive Madballz figures. I guess I'll see them December of 2022?
I just canceled an order from them that I placed on July 14th. I bought 3 "In Stock" items from their Summer Sale that never budged from processing. 3 weeks was a long enough wait for the shipping I was going to pay. I did luck out however because since mine never left the "Processing" stage I didn't have to pay a Restocking Fee. Been telling a lot of folks to avoid them. Snapdragon is a great figure, found mine at my local Walmart.
With Siege Apeface was revealed and released, it was just a matter of time till his Horrorcon partner, Snapdragon, was announced to join the new Transformers toyline, WFC trilogy. And now into Earthrise, Snapdragon is now out and he's awesome. His inclusion to this new Transformers toyline is even more special, because this is his second offical figure since G1.
If they're telling people to ship back orders that haven't even shipped yet at your own expense, screw their restocking fee. Resell the thing mint, if you're paying to ship.
After hearing of the HORROR con debacle, pun intended, i think I'm gonna take my name off there site for figures. THANK YOU my brada for sharing this story. I know Pixel Dan gets stuff and raves about them. So thanks for letting me know and great review as Snapdragon is my favorite too and own both G1's of this figure and apeface.
I got this guy on Sunday, it was either this or the seeker 2 pack and I’m glad I went with this cause I keep finding myself messing with it, Also if you want the dragon mode jaw to line up try pushing the headmaster back just enough to see his face but not enough to pop it off and the face place should fit into the neck and that’s when you bend the jaw at the hips and it’ll look right
I've ordered from them before and had no issues, but then again, I also only live about 10 miles from their store. That changed when I put in a preorder for the Soundwave Spy Patrol with Wingthing, etc. Finally showed as in stock.... at $3 less than the price I preordered it at. That's the last time I order from them unless it's cheap and I don't care when I get it.
With all that effort to return it you might as well just sell it yourself. People really want these right now, I'm sure you wouldn't have problems. For instance I know they won't be in my local stores for at least another month, and even then their stock will be limited and I might never see it, so I'm stalking every site possible.
I'm glad you got the order canceled i saw you posted that on twitter by the time i saw this ... wish RUclips would cut back on the ads i got 3 within the first 6 min of this video an 4 before the end ..... I get it youtube needs the add revenue but come on space it out more or something BTW i love the video Peaugh i know the ads are nothing you control
Awesome review Ben, totally agree about what you said, how Megalopolis handle that stuff is not okay. I love these Headmasters, finally the team is complete. Now all Takara needs to do is fix the mold issue on Weirdwolf and re-issue him. The hinge on my cockpit has started cracking. At the time of me writing this, 6 employees from Megalopolis put a thumbs down on your video =)
Man today makes two weeks with my order from megaloplis for snapdragon and skylinx this is the 1st time anything like this has happened with them i since I've made that order ive seen both skylinx and snapdragon in stores yesterday i go to get them and now they're gone so I'm stuck waiting on them. Yes don't give any money to megaloplis toys
I ordered a Godzilla figure from Megalopolis that they said was in stock. I waited a couple weeks before I called and was told they would have it out by the end of the week for sure. That didn't happen. Called a week later and they told me it just came in stock and was getting ready to ship, then when I asked to cancel they gave me the same crap about the restocking fee or I could pay shipping to return it. Said there was no possible way to do a full refund. So I figured I'd just wait it out, it's in stock now and I'll get it. Yet another week later I called again and they said it still wasn't in yet but would be soon. I told the person on the phone that I'd been directly lied to and strung along and it finally took that to get a full refund, shipping included. So apparently they lied about being able to do that too. I refuse to ever shop at that store again. It was really vindicating to hear that I wasn't the only one with such a crappy experience, thank you for that and for the great review.I also found my Godzilla at a local toy shop about a week before I finally got my Megalopolis order cancelled
I've only known Snapdragon since this review went up, but I'd do anything to protect him. A lot of the Earthrise and Siege stuff so far has been leaning heavily into the wilder side of G1 and beyond, and as someone who wasn't around back during the G1 days I truly appreciate seeing these wackier ideas and characters more fully realised and being far easier to get a hold of then their 80s counterparts. Seriously though, I have no nostalgic connection to SnapDragon, but he is just so cool I can't help but love him like I've always known the character.
I got both of those guys as well, vastly prefer Snapdragon over Ape Face. His transformation is much cleaner, and his jet mode and robot mode are way more sleek. But still, I'm glad I bought them both (Ape Face I got from TFSource and Snapdragon I got from my local Wally World). I used a pair of toenail clippers to clip off the tabs on the bottom of his dragon feet, just because they do nothing for the figure at all. Sure, if you have his legs straight and his feet flat, they help him stand (otherwise the wings would get in the way), but that's only if you absolutely must have his feet flat. All you need to do is angle his feet a bit and he stands perfectly fine. With the added bonus that the 'soles' of his feet lay flat on the surface of whatever you're standing him on. Plus he looks better to me with his feet angled anyway.
my Snapdragon has a slight design flaw, i have to rotate Krunks head fully around just to get Snap's jaw correctly aligned, it hurts my fingers but as long as snap transforms i'm pretty ok with it, if it's bad to rotate his head like that plz tell me or if anyone else has that problem plz tell me so that i don't feel like the unluckiest transformers collector ever
I had the same problem with megalopolis. I ordered a tmnt they said was in stock, waited 2 weeks and called and they said oh we sold too many of it. How the hell there gonna charge me and say it was in stock to end up like this. Terrible inventory management and charging the customer before guaranteeing a purchased product.
apeface's odd plastic was with good reason. they needed extra durable material so some really small tabs could slide into very tight slots, otherwise the tabs would snap off the first time you transformed it. they went with nylon, which has that odd off-white color.
Your experience of Megalopolis remind me of my experience with bbts here in Argentina,never send me a thing,kept all my money and banned my acount so I could not further make any reclaims of the products (lots of takara transformers and Cybertron).Abput this figure I want it so bad with his partner in crime Apeface.
Great review. And thanks for the heads up on mega. I'll definitely stay clear from them. I was about to order but ill stick with bbts. As slow as they are I've had great experiences with their customer services.
I ordered this guy on july 21. It'll be a month tomorrow and it still hasn't shipped yet. Meanwhile, I already have a snapdragon from a buddy of mine who owns a toy store
My wife has a box of makeup(kinda like a makeup loot crate) that's been waiting in a North Carolina warehouse for a few weeks waiting to be shipped to Atlanta...
Serendipideously, found this at Target when picking up medicine and supplies. I did apply Reprolabels Decepticon sigils to his wings (and one over Apeface's tampographed nosecone symbol), and am seriously enjoying the figure. (Still no other new figures in store; did see Earthrise Rung but that's abut it. Hopefully I don't get Megopolis'd by Hasbro Pulse when Greasepit is supposed to ship next week)
I'm having a similar issue that you had with an order for the VictoryStriker from LupinRanger VS PatRanger. The package shipped back in April and was backlogged due to COVID-19. Once things "settled down" in June I contacted the seller regarding any updates, just to get a message that stated that the package was shipped to Japan Post within 24 hours of the order (If I recall correctly JP postponed shipments in May, I could be mistaken) but its delayed due to COVID. I was asked to wait 1-3 weeks to receive it. I contacted them last week regarding an update (five weeks after the last contact) and got the same exact message. I do understand the COVID-19 delays, but I'm cautious about packages when no tracking number is provided.
They are selling preorders as in stock orders so they can use their policies to deny refunds. They allow cancellation of preorders but they’re in deep for an exclusive toy line and are shoring up their investment with our money by not labeling the orders as “preorder”
Welp, I'm glad I just order everything from TFSource. Not a fanboy for them, but they have never, in 10 years, messed up one of my orders. Oh and this guy is on pre-order with them....though it's still not in stock...
screw that place then...i heard that place mention somewhere once, looked at their website one time and said nah this website doesn't look good...don't care for it...they are shady then...
I got mine off ebay. Not too Bad price Won it for $37. Which is not too horribly bad. Thanks for the warning too Sucks too that Megalopolis charges you to restock. BBTS I just cancel it no problem at all if they don't have it in yet.
peaugh that’s funny. Maybe he’s just shelfwarming? I’ve seen more people with Starscream on social media than Grapple significantly. Anyways, thanks for the review! Nabbed the last copy on Amazon AU on Monday night.
Oh you may actually be correct, I just saw it mentioned somewhere about everyone having to dig through Grapples to find him, and I have noticed an influx of them around here as well.
WHat is up with this video? I am seeing an ad at least every single minute of the video? New RUclips policy cause this is BS. Great review as usual by Peaugh.
Ugh, seriously? I do not believe I have mistook ads turned on. Or even end roll ads. They should play at the beginning and then be done. I’ll check the settings and see if I can help with some of those.
@@peaugh No worries man. I just thought it was more than yours usually have. I thought RUclips may have hit us with extra ads but absolutley no big deal. I appreciate the review. I saw this 2 of this guy today in Kentucky at our local Walmart and came a hair of getting it. Probably cross my fingers and go back tomorrow. Been trying to no avail to find a Sky Lynx. Lol. But this figure does look great. I thought it looked great in the packaging and the black and purple color scheme always look good. Thanks Peaugh!
Man I wish I saw this video like a week ago as I did actually place an order for Snapdragon, Sky Lynx, and 3 other toys to hit free shipping from Megaopolis. To be fair I dont care when it shows up - but it's a shame I have been charged for a product prior to any shipping as is typical with most online retailers. I get Covid sucks and cash flow is king for any business right now but at least be up front with your customers.
Bummer. On the plus side you WILL likely get the toys. I’m not aware of them failing to fulfill an order, but the misrepresentation of “in stock” is bothersome.
I don't think they knew it was me, I generally don't put that out there when I order things. and honestly, they should just provide decent service to everyone, it shouldn't matter who I am.
I lucked out and randomly stumbled upon this guy at my local Walmart, and I'm glad a grabbed him. This might sound weird (to non-collectors, anyway, because I'm guessing we've all gone through this to a degree) but he's so good that he's kind of revitalized my feelings about the hobby and pulled me at least partway out of the bit of burnout I was experiencing. Sorry about your experience with Megalopolis. If it makes anybody feel any better, I'd never even heard of them till now.
I do my best (and did here as well until it got bad) to specifically NOT use whatever minor clout I may have as a bargaining chip. Good customer service should be expected in any case. But in extreme cases I'm not afraid to call out bad service.
If only Apeface wasn't covered in pin joints. i'd happily break him down and paint those white bits, but those oversized pins make it a tricky proposition and I'm not skilled enough to just tape the other parts up and spray around them. Also, the weathering is absolutely jarring between the two. Snapdragon has none, and Apeface is covered in it. Thankfully though at least that's easy to remove.
I love that "swoosh factor" is part of any review where a jet mode is involved.

Had a similar experience getting exhaust and greasepit from Megalopolis
yup. im done with them as well. i am waiting on my last order with them then no longer doing business with megaopolis

The dino jaw is a bit funky, but they executed the other two modes and each mode feels complete. I'll look this guy up.
NEW DRINKING GAME!!!! Every time Peaugh says "Megalopolis", take a shot!

And now into Earthrise, Snapdragon is now out and he's awesome. His inclusion to this new Transformers toyline is even more special, because this is his second offical figure since G1.
IIRC Warden tried to tease Snapdragon back in SDCC but then a Hasbro exec hushed him
I know this is 8 months later but the Megalopolis dragging throughout this review gives me life and filled me with serotonin.
you should have called this video 'Why not to buy from Megalopis: also featuring Snapdragon'.
I've been waiting for this!!
Liquid!
If they're telling people to ship back orders that haven't even shipped yet at your own expense, screw their restocking fee. Resell the thing mint, if you're paying to ship.
He reminds me of Overlord a little bit.
Nice to see I'm not the only one who sees similarities between them.
Could throw an Overboard Titanmaster on his body as a custom Overlord.
@@windsweeper8002 I vote for them to do an IDW Overlord in this line.
It’s the shoulders.
Snapdragon: Pull the lever Kronk!
Man, the side-by-side really does just make Ape Face's plastic look that much worse, huh? It looks like a test shot or something.
the "Rwar" 13.03 is what I was here for.
After hearing of the HORROR con debacle, pun intended, i think I'm gonna take my name off there site for figures. THANK YOU my brada for sharing this story. I know Pixel Dan gets stuff and raves about them. So thanks for letting me know and great review as Snapdragon is my favorite too and own both G1's of this figure and apeface.
Nice Megalopolis review
Oh yeah, and Snapdragon is cool too
Is there any use in contacting your credit card company/paypal and cancelling the transaction on the not-yet-shipped order?
I am currently in the resolution process with PayPal, which may take over a month to resolve.

Glad you like it. I'm on two minds about him. My main appeal is that my childhood bestie had the G1 and I always wanted one
One of the funniest reviews I’ve ever seen
It’s a fun figure to mess with, it’s so solid too reminds me of the voyagers from Energon
I'm glad you got the order canceled i saw you posted that on twitter by the time i saw this

With the jaws on the dino mode closed in tha triangular shape I can kinda see it a goofy kind of "Guts Man" underbite.
why do I have a feeling that this week would be a better time to have done this review?
I've only known Snapdragon since this review went up, but I'd do anything to protect him.

I’m still confused should I spend money at megalopolis toys?
If you’re patient for your items and don’t care about the condition of the box then sure because they do have some really good sales at times.
Found him in the wild yesterday! 👍🏾
Is it bad that I've seen a box in Walmart calling the figure Snapdragon but the box images and toy in the box was all Skywarp?
So where can I go to place my order with megalopolis toys again?!? LOL killing me with the casual shade; so funny!
Fun Fact: According to Atlus's The Transformers [PS2] video game, Snapdragon's reptilian alternate mode is, in fact, a Dragon!! (and not a Dinosaur)

I don't think they knew it was me, I generally don't put that out there when I order things. and honestly, they should just provide decent service to everyone, it shouldn't matter who I am.
I have snapdragon, arcee and allicon preordered from amazon.
I was thinking about getting this one, but I don't like the jaw
Besides the jaw... much better than apeface. well designed toy.
I lucked out and randomly stumbled upon this guy at my local Walmart, and I'm glad a grabbed him. This might sound weird (to non-collectors, anyway, because I'm guessing we've all gone through this to a degree) but he's so good that he's kind of revitalized my feelings about the hobby and pulled me at least partway out of the bit of burnout I was experiencing.
Sorry about your experience with Megalopolis. If it makes anybody feel any better, I'd never even heard of them till now.
Which company did this to you?
Megalopolis toys, he says in the video
@@lorcannagle I know like 10 times but I couldn't find the correct spellings. Thanks though.
I worries me that megalopolis announced a toy line of their own, that includes franchises like earth worm jim And battletoads
Makes me wonder if the guy that's behind Megalopolis is the same douchebag that ran Shocker Toys.
Peaugh, do they know how many subscribers you have? That shouldn't be an issue with customer service, but it certainly won't help them now.
I do my best (and did here as well until it got bad) to specifically NOT use whatever minor clout I may have as a bargaining chip. Good customer service should be expected in any case. But in extreme cases I'm not afraid to call out bad service.
Mine just came in from Hasbro Pulse.
This entire thing made me laugh
Sounds like a quick call to your credit cards company will stop it at no charge to you....
Snapdragon still wins out of the horrorcons
6:42 That’d be nice, but wings that look like they can actually support the figure would’ve been even better
You should just refuse delivery, and tell them to send back too shipper. They should send it back for free.
They did end up cancelling the order and refunding my money. Although it hasn’t shown up yet I did get the cancellation confirmation email.
I'll have my Arcee and Cerebros with Spike stomp this guy.
If only Apeface wasn't covered in pin joints. i'd happily break him down and paint those white bits, but those oversized pins make it a tricky proposition and I'm not skilled enough to just tape the other parts up and spray around them. Also, the weathering is absolutely jarring between the two. Snapdragon has none, and Apeface is covered in it. Thankfully though at least that's easy to remove.
Still incredibly rude even if they do finally follow through on the order. Using Covid as an excuse is low.
They gave a refund to me but it was 7 dollars less of 53
