That “please give” getting quieter until you can’t hear it anymore
it’s reminiscent of how everything in the universe keeps getting farther away until you can’t see anything anymore
The only creatures that can hear it will be dogs and ants
It has got to the point that unicron cannot hear it anymore
Which is funny because I've stopped trying to make it quiter.
@@PerspectiveEnd “quiter”💀 tbh after having to go through all those Gamer Edition flops, I’d be slurring my words too 💀
Hasbro: "We’re targeting the fans of the game!"
*Could not have missed worse if they aimed at Lincoln and hit Jefferson Davis*
Nuff' said
That is quite the analogy.
A freeze frame of your fist hitting earthrise cliffjuper should definitely be a channel member badge
A brilliant idea.
Roast-A-Mans: Perspective End
Gamer Edition Megatron's face is the face Persy makes when someone says they like ER Cliffjumper.
I think my expression is more confusion.
Oh no perspective like a gamer edition figure. We are doomed. Edit: Thank you everyone for 50 likes
you are correct me
Thank you for acknowledging how his fusion canon just looks so much better the other way around
You know me. I have taste.
Megatron’s cannon is always on his arm ingame. His arm doesn’t transform to use his cannon, only other weapons
I think it's this way because in the second game he replaces his arm for the cannon.
When this came out before the Concept Art Megatron, The Gamer Edition is so small that he will stand out if you want to mix him with your Live Action Transformers
I was thinking the same thing when I got legacy armada Megatron I said to myself why is the figure so damn small he should be way bigger
Cliff jumper getting punch needs to be a emoji to say the toy sucks
Fax my brother spit your shit indeed
A great suggestion.
Arms doing the heavy lifting both figuratively and literally
That was what I was going for.
Love how this man’s honest about the figures
I strive to be, and am glad that people appreciate that.
Gamer Edition’s honestly been on a winning streak this year. Starscream’s good, Sideswipe’s great, the Deceptigrunt is an improvement on Barricade (shocker, I know), and Ratchet looks pretty solid.
I don't know that I'd call sideswipe great.
1:34 - Ngl, this looks just like so cursed, the some goes to Grimlock... And I don't know, I love this designs, like a lot. They're the great example of, simple, but also complicated I would like call it.
I would not call these simple. They are absolutely over designed. Nothing can be a straight surface on them, they have to have dozens of angles force in for nothing but decorative purpose.
heartwarming, a *gamer edition™* figure PE can stand.
Whow ever believe this was possible.
1:06 Perspective, PLEASE make a supercut of you saying “gAmEr eDiTiOn¡”
ATP the sun collapsing is more likely to happen than pe saying gamer edition normally
The main reasons people are like “UUUHHH Dis is Twash beyond my Wectym” Is because of the knees, And apparently they didn’t realise Sharp objects exist
Or that you don't even have to do that, they will bend fine on their own, with a little finagling.
That fact that you like this figure is a surprise, but I love this guy so I welcome that surprise
It's a surprise to me as well. But I'm glad we both do like it.
Ive never been so elated that Perspective likes something I like
A rare thing to be sure
Yeah I too didn't expect me to like this thing.
THANK YOU. Somebody who finally gives this thing a decently positive review. I've had it since April, and got it alongside Starscream. So far, I've only gotten them, Sideswipe, and Optimus, and I'd say the experience really left me liking Gamer Edition. Then again, I have made sure to avoid Barricade and Bumblebee/Cliffjumper
I'm glad to see you are enjoying the new Emoji.
And yeah you know me, I've got actual taste.
I always laugh thinking of Megatron trying to fire his canon (either as a hover craft or a helicopter like in animated) only for him to go flying backwards.
…Starscream probably convinced him having a flying alt mode would “improve his performance”.
He'd probably flip upside down and just face plant into the ground like that.
That does sound like a Starscream Plan.
Finally! Someone else who has something to say other than “THE KNEES!” Jokes aside I love this figure.
Yeah I'm surprised I'm like the only one. How did no one else try the knees anyways despite the leg pegs.
I have no idea but have to admit I am guilty of not relising you can just untab them the slightest amount. I clipped mines pegs without thinking.
3:19 now I’m imagining that scene with the “a sad song on the worlds smallest violin” music playing over it
I think the issue with the head is that they needed to make it a bit bigger so it can properly house the detail. Also this guy has something not a lotof transformers have: gauntlet rotation which allows for some cool poses
I've seen smaller heads handle detail better, but yes he does have a tiny little baby bean.
Thank you! I've enjoyed this figure except for the excessively small head. It irks me to no end.
If it ain't on the list yet, Animated Shockwave with the human lips would be hilarious as a members exclusive thing.
We can call it Shocklipz.
That would be pretty funny.
3:26 the purple paint under his eyes literally makes it look like he’s crying ☠️
I didn't pick up on that my self.
When I got this guy I was like “this is actually pretty good, PE’s is gonna hate it tho”. Color me shocked
I am shocked too.
This is genuinely my favorite gamer edition figure. Modified mine to remove the knee pegs and have a smoother up and down at the head, but he rocks.
Mines Probably the Optimus, but this is probably my second favorite.
@@PerspectiveEnd that ratchet is gonna be peak when it comes out.
I also think the decepticon soldier might be an interesting release.
Suggestions for Emojis/badges:
"Broken Cliffjumper"
"Drunk Ratchet"
"Roasted Roast-A-Mans Reviewer"
"OCD-Man Away"
"Rattrap Mafia Boss"
"MAXIMUM Member"
Why Drunk Ratchet?
@@PerspectiveEnd 2 reasons:
1: Bumblebee movie Ratchet review was (technically) the start of Narcissiwrists.
2: Funny Drunk Ratchet scene
I’m sure people already did this. But since the wfc figures have removable arms you can put megatron’s arm on primes body in case you want your wfc Optimus to go on the offensive
I guess you can technically do that yeah.
4:05 a flugel, a trumpet, a cornet. Either way that is NOT a tuba 💀
Google Ied to me.
"I like this"
NANI?!?!
Yeah I'm shocked too.
Shrinking the WFC character torsos shrinks my will to live, Grimlock be looking like a cheap Halloween costume 😭1:39
I'd say it's not the torso that should be shruken, but the stomach to be enlarged
But that just makes him even more bloated, and even more over heavy, with less ability to move.
When I read the title of this video my brain literaly read it how PerspectiveEnd says it, "Geemer Edition".
As you should.
A couple emojis I think could work are Cliffjumper' head on a toothpick, the perspective end face from the MP grimlock review, and siege skyfire's face.
Why on a Toothpick? And Prototype Perspective, why that design?
@@PerspectiveEnd on a toothpick since you want his head on a spike, and the prototype perspective design is just funny.
Well, at least someone enjoys this guy
It's just weird that someone is me.
5:24 think i heard some of the designers talk about those tabs before, and apparently they were not on the prototype, or the cad model, so they may have been a last minute addition from the factory manager...
That would be truly insane.
Just tap him to the nemesis and he can be a cannon on it
What?
PrespectiveEnd liking a wfc figure was not in my Bingo Card…
Nor was it on mine before I got this.
GAMR EDITHEN.
This is a very special figure to me. Me, my brother and our friends are doing a big D&d campaign and me and my brothers characters are based off of Optimus and Megatron. (Their names are Pietrov K'yullen and Manifred Tatasciore btw) This is the figure I use to represent Manifred and my brother uses the gAMer EdiTiON Optimus. Also I met Fred Tatasciore (his VA) at a con and I told him about Manifred and he thought it was so cool. I got him to sign the character sheet.
I love those names. Does anyone else get the joke?
I feel like those figures are a bit big for a DnD Mini?
And that's awesome.
@PerspectiveEnd The only one who got it before we explained it was my friend Luke who is a TF fan. Also we don't use Dnd minis, me and my brother just bring them along and mess with them while the session is going on. We use Dnd Beyond
I think this is the nicest commentary I've seen directed at this Megatron. Personally I feel both Optimus, and Megatron were missed opportunities to make some really stand out figures in the Leader Class scale. The budgetary restraints really hurt the production value all around.
Yeah I think just about everyone else hates this thing, and I expected to my self, but to my surprise I don't.
And I wouldn't even say it's budget that hurt this thing, but just bad weird decisions.
So earthspark megatron not having his canon visble in vehcile mode makes sense
Indeed.
"Pervert shoes"!
Is that a question?
I found files for a new fusion canon and printed that it more matches the old WFC megatron figure, idk I find it looking better than the normal one it comes with. Besides that this was a surprisingly nice figure in the gamer line the knee peg and small feet are a bit awkward but the rest is nice.
A few people have a problem with the Fusion cannon, I like it just fine, but I get why you might not.
Ok, i did not even know that the head was a ball joint i thought he could only swivel
Yeah it's a pretty decent one too.
robot mode: somewhat accurate to the model in the game
alt mode: boat
"don't you mean tank?'
nah I mean boat
I don't think it looks like either a tank or a boat.
I don't understand why Hasbro would mis-manufacture the knees (since I think the instructions show the knee portions angled in a usable way). It literally took a figure everyone would have loved and made it just okay to me and a sin to everyone else. Agree with this review.
well considering the verdict of this review I feel it's only right to place one of the best quotes from any megatron in the franchise
"I AM THE DOMINATOR! I AM THE DESTROYER! I AM MEGATRON!!!"
Got the SS Gamer Edition WFC Megatron figure as a place holder for the inevitable FOC Megatron figure.
-And yeah, I like how fusion cannon look with the long barrel facing forward 3:46 instead of how it officially looks.
I can't claim to like the FOC version of his design. Everything is so silly over big on him. Like his shins are bigger than G1 Megatron's who's torso.
At least we agree that there is a right way to have the fusion Cannon.
4:00 they also screwed this up as well. The elbow is mounted somewhere in the middle of the cannon and NOT on the butt end of it. Also comparing this cannon to the old one is like “you vs the guy she tells you not to worry about” and the old one is “the guy”
Yeah I knew that bit, I don't know why they didn't invert the peg and port for this guy so it could be attached the way it's supposed to.
Like if you are going to do the Dumb Gimmick, do it right.
Is it weird I love megatron as a helicopter but hate hovertanks. In my opinion if megatron becomes a helicopter, his fusion cannon splits into 4 smaller guns that won’t blast the helicopter back 50 feet away on each blast
A hellicopter is a better altmode for him than a Tank.
*HAMPSPECTIVEEND.*
I'm glad you are excited.
I just realized this: The fusion canon looks like the barrel of the gun designed for both the buzzworthy core class and origins bumblebee. Looking VERY suggestive.
Of course it does. That version of the cannon has always looked suggestive as hell.
I want megatron to be an anti aircraft weapon from now on. It’s the only earth based thing where his fusion canon would work perfectly
That makes more sense for sure, though he wouldn't get a ton of use out of that mode dealing with the Autobots.
@@PerspectiveEnd well in my show the leader of the autobots was solus prime at the time, who had an Ariel alt mode so him choosing it made sense, but when he killed her he already found a love for it and decided to keep it even though the autobots only had about two flyers
Hell has frozen over
You might not be wrong.
The amount of firepower and energy required to make a tank hover makes me think “maybe he should just be a jet instead”
I don’t think the weapons are made of light, there just glowing with power
That's just factually incorrect. They literally project as beams then expand into their full size. They are explicitly meant to be made of lasers.
When the front of a barrel convexes like that, its usually because of something like a Muzzle suppressor or Muzzle break.
whenever i seen this feature on G1 weapon designs i always assumed it was supposed to be something like that.
A gun usually has more to it than just the barrel and the Muzzle Break, and even if that were the case, the game referred to this as a Riot Launcher, so it's a Rocket Launcher, not a Gun, and would not use a muzzle break.
They slim down Grimlock more or less the way you’re suggesting in the Beast Hunters comics actually, so funny coincidence there
Really? I've never seen that version of him?
@ yeah it’s a pretty obscure run of comics, but a pretty interesting instance of direct crossover between Prime and the Cybertron games
Bro this design was always so wierd and gangly in the game the sequel upgrades his design and makes it look pretty cool
I... Fully disagree with that. The Second games version is a downgrade to an ABSURD extent. He's just SOOO PUFFY!
@@PerspectiveEnd hmm I must have forgot how the second one looked. I just checked and his legs and body are insanely weird
I think that figures like this which are not Micro Masterpiece yet still amazing could fall into a fidget category. Not so poseable to the point where it is overwhelming, yet still well-articulated. close enough to the source. And all-around fun.
I just say figures like that are good. Like it doesn't have to be a Micro Masterpiece to be good.
I literally got my Foc Deluxe Optimus Prime figure a week ago, and this video drops. Perfect timing
I mean I feel like they aren't so related. Like this isn't the FOC version.
@@PerspectiveEnd yeah, but its still from the highmoon games, so yeah, i still count it
I love folding the arm in alt mode, it looks so much cooler
I know right!
3:26 now i can just imagine the scene and all megatron says is "MEEP"
What's funny is that's a really old joke for my channel.
6:08 There’s just something cool about seeing Cybertronian alt modes. Like at least the designs are creative for alien vehicles
See I don't find them all that creative, they either tend to just look like nothing, or like a regular vehicle without windows. I'd much rather have them have more recognizable modes.
@@PerspectiveEndI feel Shockwave is the worst offender for that.
1:41 oh my god that’s so much better
Thank you! You are like the first person to say that to me.
@@PerspectiveEnd you’re welcome! surprised there’s no one else
I recently (yesterday) got the transformers transformers one movie core series prime changer class 2 in 1 quintesson and my first thought was "this is a fun toy, but man does bro need a roast a man's"
5:08 Apparently that wasn’t a design decision, but a factory mistake.
People have been complaining about this long since before the figure came out, so I don't know much I believe that.
I also hate how basically every cybertroion alt mode is a hover vehcile, Hovertanks, bikes, cars, and freaking trucks , can we just get some wheels and Treads, I like animateds more varried cybertroion alt modes
There are a couple with Defined wheels, but yes the "Everything Hovers because it's space" thing was lame.
3:26 How Mrs. Wicket looks at Mr. Bean everyday
I have never seen the Mr Bean Cartoon.
Personally, I’m gonna wait for the inevitable FOC Megatron
I think that design is infinitely worse than his first game version.
Honestly, I was really worried about this video after seeing that even pvp didn’t like it.
I am glad this is the outcome
Do you have the figure your self?
@@PerspectiveEnd nah. Only GE figures I have are op and starscream
I love you how say “Gamer Edition “ lol and second maybe for a sticker you use Overlord POG face
Which face is that again?
@@PerspectiveEnd hmmm it’s like wide eye , with like excited look, sorry , it hard to describe, but since Overlord has metal lips it will look funny with POG face
Honestly, I was not expecting you to like this figure, but it does seem like a fun one, even if the knee joint being extremely limited Is, a choice
Though I have not found this figure, except once at a target recently. And never again (classic hasbro distribution)
Edit: also I have a emoji suggestion, OCD man, though I don’t know how well that would fit in the 1 by 1 frame format that YT emojis have
The knees are less in the way than you might expect.
Odds are you won't ever see anther one given how old this thing is.
And that's a good suggestion.
@@PerspectiveEnd I was surprised that the knees could bend much more with a tiny little un-transformation, I’m surprised no one else brought that up.
Yeah, I forgot how old this figure is, though I can still see barricades in every store I go to
I've waited patiently for this lol ..GAAAAMER EDITION!!!lol I love it
Dammit, the one time I guessed hate it, it turns out I'm wrong.
Also, I have the MP 13 KO with the articulated fingers and not sure what you mean. It's fantastic and has the extra shoulder ratchet I talked about. Though it is a KO so I guess your mileage may vary.
I guess "Mixed" for this one because it has enough deviations for many fans to hate it, but PE despised the High Moon aesthetic to begin with so I thought he might enjoy it more (tho I did not anticipate he'd like it this much).
Every person I've ever talked to about that version of it, told me that all the fingers snapped off the first time they tried to use them, and that all the joints were incredibly loosely tolerance, falling over constantly and breaking parts off.
i will be scared when this guy becomes profitable
Why is that?
Okay I've got one, an emoji of a piece of wet spaghetti with Dai Atlas' face.
No sane person would put the larger part of the cannon facing forward
I know this probably isn't what anyone else wants out of this guy, but i really wish he was a stark white like the 2012 deluxe. White red and black is a killer color scheme, especially on megatron
I do think that was a really cool color scheme.
4:37 I don’t know about you, but Optimus and Megatron having weapon hands. I’m cool with because Megatron was built for war, and Optimus was built to give Megatron to run for his money so it makes sense that they would be the only ones to have arm weapons
I feel like the Regular Fusion Cannon mounted on his arm is fine.
And it might make sense for Optimus, but while he was always built to fight Megatron, he's never really been known for his in built arsenal. Like yeah he often has it, but it's usually just a mostly normal gun.
I can never bring myself to have the canon correct way around, it jus looks so dumb
When you say correct way, do you mean classically correct, or do you mean correct as per the game, and the way the designers intended?
Ya know i never thought about the whole direction of the cannon thing but you are absolutely right. Also this figures cannon is a weak baby ass version of his in game version.
Hey I'll take it, because it looks more like the normal one.
Perspective approves basic just your logo with a thumbs up
The distribution in my country is so bad that this figure hasn't even appeared but legacy evolution Armada Prime just came, including the rise of the beasts Optimus. WHY
Is he charactized better in the games than the show
No not even close. In the game it's a pale hint of the levels of Characterization he had in the show. Though to be fair that is what makes him fun. This version of the dude is ONLY angry. He has no other emotion than anger.
I love your vids keep up the great work
Thank you so much!
I think I prefer the turret arm foleded.
Off-center turrets are underrated imo.
Breaking semitry can be really cool if done well. The secret is maintaining balance, I feel.
It is at least a vibe.
I thought about buying it, but I decided to wait and experience the mold as Flame
Probably the better version honestly.
I so want to play the high moon war for cybertron games. Those along with Devastation are at the top of the my game wish list
Devastation is amazing. The Highmoon games are overrated, where only one level in the Second Game truly comes together the way it's supposed to. Everything else feels like you are playing a Generic Third Person Shooter that just has a Transformers Coat of Paint. Vortex's Level in the second game truly feels like you are playing a game that could exist in no other franchise than transformers and it's amazing.
Great review PerspectiveEnd!! My main gripe with GE Megatron is that he is skinnier then GE Optimus Prime. lol I have always viewed Megatron being taller and more muscular then Prime, so it makes no sense to me when Megatron is smaller. Keep on being amazing.
I don't think that's cannon, though in the first game they didn't run into each other. But Optimus typically was built to Fight Megatron, so it doesn't make sense as to why he'd be smaller.
Erm,actually you forgot the R in Game Edition in the Title 👆🤓
Crap.
Thanks for pointing that out. You are the first to correct me on that.
@@PerspectiveEnd No problem my mans! It looks like i was just the first person to point that out haha
Ah ye old hampspective end
Adorable beyond belief.
Ah yes the figure that’s knees bend less than a metal spoon
Actually in this video I prove that's not true.
@@PerspectiveEnd i know I meant without untransforming
GAMER EDITIONNNN
I only said it once this video.
This happened to me as well, I have the original one. I thought I was going to hate the new one... Once I got it in hand... I liked it! Bought it!
Yeah, while I don't have the original, I was sure that I was going to crap all over this thing.
the game did NOT remove his forearm when you have the Fusion Cannon out
it only happened with other guns
I swear it did. I remember it clearly. I also remember it being a Generic gun anyone could use.
The original figure (Rage over Cybertron 3-Pack version) is my favorite Megatron and its a shame that this figure isnt as good as it shoud, he looks pretty tiny compared to how ridiculously swole and beefy GE Optimus is and it has some proportional issues but now i kinda want to give it a try.
Also, placing the cannon the other way arround makes both modes look so much better, its insane.
I wonder why no one has ever made an upgrade kit where the cannon can extend
Extended how?
@@PerspectiveEnd either just makes it work like a zoomable flashlight or spring loaded I guess? I always imagined the longer form is for robot mode and shorter one is for the tank
One of the member badges should be the sad megatron face on the g1 megatron from this video
That would be pretty funny.
