The cool thing about the legends stuff coming out is that it can fit in to a G1 display. I could see putting this on my G1 shelf if I wanted something better than the abomination that is G1 Menasor.
*Well, if it wasn't for that quote "abomination that is the G1 Menasor" you wouldn't have this newer sweeter version before you of that classic figure. As often is the case most Millennials speak before they think...they just can't help it. That's like talking ish about Nintendo, or say the PS1, you see. Respect must/should be paid.*
@@PredaconKing-cn2xx Yes that's true just like if it wasn't for my ancestors wearing the skins of dead animals I wouldn't have my Ralph Lauren suits. That doesn't mean I want to wear those dead animal skins.
@@Cyril29a *LOL, true....but that's an exaggerated misappropriation of the original thought, and you know it. Its funny as hell though...I'll give you that.*
Hey Ben thanks for the review. I just got mine and have a few additional issues, just wondering if your copy shared them. The weapons for combined mode did not peg into the hands as the pegs on the weapons are too small. The fingers are tight enough to hold them so not too bad. Edit: I figured this one out. I had the peg in the wrong spot. In addition to that, I am not able to use dragstrip as an arm on his own as the pegs on the top base part of the shoulder of Menasor do not align correctly with the slots under the car. It looks like they just mirrored the part from the other side.
Did anyone have an issue with one of Motor Master's feet where they forgot to drill a small hole on the secondary cab you need to fully transform him like mine? I just drilled a small hole, and did it myself.
That is a good "CHUG" size combiner. I might just get the set to supplement that old Fansproject Menasor on my "CHUG" shelf. I already have the Magic Square set.
I'd love to know how these "Legends Plus" figures scale with the current Generations line. Because if they're about the same size, I have some requests. :-)
You got these pre-released? I don't suppose you didn't get a retail box with it? There are replacement parts being sent out already for the arms problems.
yea.. all I wanna know is how well this could scale with my WFC guys... had that same issue with Yes Model Guardia, turns out... Yes model is the perfect size.... if this guy is the same size of him im in.
I love the level of engineering Magic Square did for these guys, but personally, even as a fan of G1, it pains me to see details that are the result of over simplification of alt mode bits replace the *actual* parts. I'd love to be able to see the wheels peek through Motormaster's sides more, have his full truck cab just used as the majority of his boots with the grille and bumper flipped around for feet, etc. I also wouldn't mind if they altered the truck deco to black and dark Grey on the sides, which is actually a quite popular deco and would fit Motormaster well as a G1+ design. Great review all around, just offering my take.
MS have option part to another version of menasor. This KO upscale have too? I wonder, what do you mean about missing pieces? Is this about option part?
Thank you so much for making this video. The instructions are horrible, Motor Master's trailer is a sinful pain to get started in the beginning, but thanks to your stress relieving video, I'm able to form Menasor. Bless you.
Has anyone done a comparison of the original Magic Square versions versus these KO's? I'd really like to see them side by side to compare. Also, what Devastator is that at time 24 min and 20 seconds?
New Age Hephaestus. EDIT: I stand corrected. It's a figure, not a transforming Devastator. It's not New Age's version. My apologies. This Menasor is roughly 11-12 inches tall in combined mode.
looks better than hasbros offering , at least magic square gets it right the leg stunticons are straight like in g1 cartoon its how hasbro should of done it
@@Tef-Tef The plan is that the manufacturer will be sending out replacement parts to fix the issues. So your retailer should get the parts and then send them to you.
Great review by you, and great work from the creators to make this figure. However, I hate it. It reminds me of how they would show them merge on the show sometimes with Motormaster just growing big and the others attaching to his limbs. I HATED that transformation, and this is like that. Again, no knock against you personally.
@@carlossaldana8388 I’m snarking on the use of a real transformer name, as opposed to the trend of either completely random or mind blowingly obscure inside joke words/names. This is like a Bumblebee ip named ‘Star Saber’
@@HidaAtarasi I don’t mind it so much. Personally, there are cases were the 3rd party naming its better than the original names like FT hydra(sixshot), rouge(arcee) or xbt Neptune (seaspray ) in my opinion.
am I the only one who's getting kind of bored with how all the 3rd parties use the trailer as a cheat for Menasor's whole body? not exactly an engineering feat...

A Ben review - my day is made
*7:08* Great pose for BreakDown,he really is showing off his ball joints lol
Gotta love his *ball* joints
Thanks for the review, Ben! Can't wait until I get mine!

They're smaller. Individually, they're as big as Netflix Bee. Combined, I'm guesding they're as tall as Siege Jetfire (not so sure)
@@tartatovsky they are
I'm confused. Does this come with the other vehicles to combine. ???
You got these pre-released? I don't suppose you didn't get a retail box with it? There are replacement parts being sent out already for the arms problems.
Yeah no box with it or replacement parts
Your collection is getting big and outstanding!!! 💯🤔👍🏽
Is there a ko of the ocular max devastator? I missed out on the original.
Now, make it MP size.
yea.. all I wanna know is how well this could scale with my WFC guys... had that same issue with Yes Model Guardia, turns out... Yes model is the perfect size.... if this guy is the same size of him im in.
I hope the pegs for this figure are not loose like the MS figure. The Ms version gives me nightmares..

That trailer was about to get thrown like a football, until I thought about YouTubing it, and it just saved me from wasting $200.
Great stuff as usual 👍
Awesome. Wondering if the original MS cars can fit on BW motormaster?
MS have option part to another version of menasor. This KO upscale have too?
I wonder, what do you mean about missing pieces? Is this about option part?
What kind of voodoo magic was done to get such an awesome figure in such a small scale?!? 😲
you should see the original magic square which is even smaller lol
Cool review. Menasor is my favorite decepticon combiner, with abominus #2. I’m looking forward to the legacy combiner
I hate i can never find a good comparison with current figures
Looks great thank you sir
Thank you so much for making this video. The instructions are horrible, Motor Master's trailer is a sinful pain to get started in the beginning, but thanks to your stress relieving video, I'm able to form Menasor. Bless you.
Have the four and motormaster is on route . Great video btw

New Age Hephaestus. EDIT: I stand corrected. It's a figure, not a transforming Devastator. It's not New Age's version. My apologies. This Menasor is roughly 11-12 inches tall in combined mode.
how much bigger is it compared to the original? If it's bigger than the Zeta Superion, I'll have to pass sadly. Wonder what NewAge will do.
Hope they get a 5 pack release in g2 colours
My order should start to arrive by Dec 16 😑 although I paid for all five bots or 3 sets as they are sold 😢 they won't arrive untill christmas
Yo tengo esa figura ojala salgan mas combainers de esta marca ojala los tecnobots uno de mis preferidos🤗🤗🤗
how i wish legacy stunticons look like this ,the trailer is part of combined mode
Cant wait for them all to be released. Unless they won’t ever be released…
How much to get this?
For all of them about £150ish. Just motermaster, about £100. (I think)
At least on eBay
looks better than hasbros offering , at least magic square gets it right the leg stunticons are straight like in g1 cartoon its how hasbro should of done it
Thanks Ben! Rad Review, I like this guy but that face looks like he just ate a plate of muffins! :D
Wow I had no idea it was the muffins that did this to my face...😁
Oh dang. Muffins, I should have known!
Oh gosh it's newage devastator all over again with the limbs essentially just being armour for a large partsforming price
They really took parts forming to the next level. The time will come when transformers toys arent even considered transformers anymore.
Size?
I think it’s 11-12 inches
Actually its a common problem for the arm... the makers made a post on weibo about it and how to fix it as most of the first release has this problem.
Awesome thank you Bud
@@BensKOllectables Sorry I been looking all over and cant find the link i saw the fix for this :(

Not a fan of the IDW sculpt there, looks more like Jay Lenosaur.
Don't know why but this time Ben, it sounded like you were doing snooker commentary
😂😂😂😂
Do have a proper question, would this set be a suitable replacement for the Combiner Wars Menasor?
@@railgunrenegade5275 its smaller. Individually they are Netflix Bee sized
I see yo followers are getting bigger
Christ this is even less of a combiner than the Official Legacy Menasor 🤦🏻♂️

This thing is a pile of shit. lol Mine is so freaking loose. It's a headache trying to keep everything attached! lol
To bad it's not mp os :/
Come on ,man where is the comparison whith magic square..s figures?aa?where
Well I don’t own any so…. 🤷♂️
胸パーツが忘れている!
Hasbro tries to hard
Okay, this trend of deliberately giving characters the wrong name has got to stop.
This is Bumblebee Blitzwing all over again.
Well, they legally can’t give their designs their respective names

I think there is one where it’s all built in, but I think it’s like £700
