I am quite impressed that Motormaster does indeed at least transform quite a nice amount to form the head and bit of the body. Kinda helps the frame feel less "cheatsy"...still not really a fan but it is my choice to display them combined or not. (And I definitely won't be, so it doesn't bother me. )

The holes in Menasor's lower legs. Wouldn't the two fill those in?william-james88 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Looks like Legacy Breakdown and Wildrider are gonna form more than just the back of the legs.

A far cry from the deformed abomination that was the Combiners Wars original.

I don't know. We can already see the legs are compatible. And if you look on the shoulders....
If those parts can flip up, it might just work, though I'm probably just being too optimistic.

I think you're being too optimistic, they've already said the connectivity is only in the legs, and even then it's not solid (like plugging a CW limb into Cybertron Optimus Primes arm joint)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but only the legs connect to the trailer, the arms connect to Motormaster himself, right?

Putting Iguanus in this position:
And inserting him like so:
It's not perfect, but it work.

Knock Out isn't part of Menasor in any way. A proper G1 Breakdown and Dead End are coming.

That makes no sense.
You are suggesting that Mensaor is made out of 4 completely new molds and a retool of a retool of SS-86 Jazz?
I think you might be confused.

There's no maybe about it. At the same reveal that gave us Knock Out, Wildrider and Motormaster we were specifically told we had to wait before they could show us the last two members.

I think the confusion is that he thinks Knock Out is a Stunticon. Like he's Dead End renamed for Trademark reasons or something, based on the fact that he's a red Decepticon car, when Knock Out actually isn't a Stunticon at all.Emerje wrote:RodimusPrimeUkraine1 wrote:Emerje wrote:RodimusPrimeUkraine1 wrote:Sentinel_Primal wrote:RodimusPrimeUkraine1 wrote:Overcracker wrote:Very very nice.

I look forward to someone coming up with a way to attach all four CW cars.
While I like Motormaster as an individual figure and Menasor's posability, I still fail to be impressed by the fact that they designed Menasor to match seriously lazy animation. It just reduces Menasor to an alt mode of Motormaster with the other Stuntacons as clingers-on.

You can bet your left AND right nut that some smart-ass will make a 3D printed "upgrade kit" that will allow exactly that. It's just a matter of time and will come sooner than you think.
Posted by Overcracker on June 6th, 2022 @ 9:39am CDT
Got to say, he's pretty nice for such a small guy. The hood doesn't like to stay tabbed in though in Car mode.
With that said, I suddenly feel the urge to have a Commander Class Star Convoy to pair him with for some reason.
Posted by Sowndwave76 on June 6th, 2022 @ 6:41pm CDT
I still say the shoulders are too wide, but somehow, in person, it doesn't bother me that much.
I also really appreciate that there's not much stupid greebling... In fact, for me, this has pretty much the right amount of molded detail relative to the size of the figure.
I would've been very okay no wing texture (other than the ridges closer to the shoulders), and with a solid gold colored torso where it's semi-transparent... But none of that's bad.
Now I'm really looking forward to Shrapnel and Bombshell!!

In the review you can see how he can attach to the back of Arcee for that dual canon mode we saw in the show. We also see the various accessories used by other characters like Elita 1's long rifle.

Really like the look of all of those weapons too.

I always knew knock out wasn't a stunticon. But I knew breakdown was. With all the recent news I took a crazy guess and decided Knock out might be Dead end. But if you think about it more they are barely the same, just both red car decepticons.

No box, no instructions, no mention to how he gets it so quickly = illegally obtaining it.
Not to mention his voice especially his ridiculous inflections on certain words is annoying (I watched one video when he first started posting some time back) not to mention his knowledge is sketchy.
