I actually have the same toy yours is not broken. You just have to push the button on the top and then there’s a little button on the bottom that you also have to push for some reason then it shoots.
whirlwind weirdly enough reminds me of bay verse laserbeak he's still cool hope he's in the movie perhaps as a soundwave cassette that dies during the movie I don't know I'm just spit balling, sorry yours is broken i keep seeing it at target so I might pick it up simply for whirlwind though
I’d recommend waiting for it to go on sale. I really think it will, every place I’ve seen stock it hasn’t be able to love many of them. Whirlwing has really made me realize that I want to see them experiment with the cassettes. Like, they’re always rectangles. FOC made them discs and SS Bumblebee made them cubes, but I want to see them go further. Like, what if they turned into pyramids, or something?
yeah, I'll probably wait for its price to lower and yeah, I agree, imagine how many deployer minicon shapes there can be hexagons spheres anything I imagine cybertronians who get minicons train with like a Pokémon so their bond is stronger or something and then they figure out where on their body to place them
Saw that at a department store toy section and I was thinking "arms look so hollow. Cannon is on the wrong arm. Should I get this?" So here I am watching this video and... oh. I've had some simple transformation Tranaformers toys too but... this one is overly simple😅 Maybe I'll get a much better Megatron someplace else then.
Man, that stinks. What really sucks is that, for a long time, this was the only TFOne Megs you could even get! If you’re able to get the Studio Series one, I’d totally recommend him!
@@rycalamo2684 Yeah. I’m also sad we never got mainline Elita or Starscream. I would have loved to see what the LA design team would have done with a wave 2.
I could see it. Truth be told, I think they should remold this Megatron into Orion and then remold the Drift mold into Bumblebee. You could also get Elita out of the Fracture mold, have all four in this price point.
It’s not great, but for a better price the toy itself is solid. There meat to this figure, and it’s a good solid Megatron, especially for younger fans. But no, it should not be the price of a voyager.
This is intended primarily (if not exclusively) for small kids, to trash it around and play the Hell out of it. For that purpose, it is pretty much fine.
I don’t like gimmick toys even as a kid. I always preferred my collector things like Legacy and especially masterpieces.
I always like to see what the gimmick toys are up to, and some of them are really cool! Like Warrior Class stuff.
Whirlwind is probably the best aspect about this toy. If they make more, I might as well just collect the actual little guys from the deployers.
RID2015 had an entire line of figures like Whirlwind; if you want to collect them, I bet you could find RID Minicons cheap nowadays!
@@ronbondujon9690 I used to collect them whenever I was a little younger, I’ll look into it!
Such an interesting use of this mold lol. Also I can’t get over the fact that when I picked up the new Bot Shots, they are called “Race Changers” 💀
Hasbro will do everything they can to gaslight us into thinking these are new toys and not the most random mid-2010s gimmicks sent back out😂

I’ll need to check that out! I’m in the middle of a move and I packed my Megs up already, but thanks for the heads up!
Yea np
00:00. Sorry about that, man. 😞
This one was shot awhile back, I’ve actually managed to find Sentinel Prime since then! I reviewed with alongside Bumblebee a few days ago.
1:40 D 16 we should call it Derrateen SiX
😂

If it makes you feel any better about finding the gimmick lads before the rest, my Walmart didn’t have any of the new figures in general lol
You’re absolutely right. Grass is always greener on the other side and all that.
Just got this for my son was looking up if I was doing something wrong I just gave it to him for his birthday and it doesn't launch the ball 😢😢😢
Man, I hate to hear that. A lot of people have talked about that in the comments. Sadly, it seems like it’s a common issue.
I can't figure out how to transform it.
A good person to watch for that would be Emgo! He does videos that are only the transformation.
Is this the counterpart to the mainline Optimus Prime figure
I didn’t think it would be, but it doesn’t seem like mainline is getting a second wave. I guess it has to be, which is a bummer.
@@ronbondujon9690well that’s unfortunate as I really like the mainline Optimus Prime figure it’s pretty well made, at least we have the studio series
@@rycalamo2684 Yeah. I’m also sad we never got mainline Elita or Starscream. I would have loved to see what the LA design team would have done with a wave 2.
it would be cool if they use the Drift Mold as Car Optimus Prime
I could see it. Truth be told, I think they should remold this Megatron into Orion and then remold the Drift mold into Bumblebee. You could also get Elita out of the Fracture mold, have all four in this price point.
Whirlwing: 8.5/10
Megs: 3/10
I'd pick him up discounted for the Balled Eagle.
I wish I thought of that balled Eagle pun🤣
@@ronbondujon9690 I was pretty proud of it. 😁
Push button on the bottom and the button on top for it to shoot.
I’ve had someone walk me through how to shoot it, and it still doesn’t work for me. I don’t really know what’s up.
It doesn’t shoot for me either so I guess its a error in the mechanics
I mean, it’s an older mold. Unfortunately, these mechanics of the toys get too old to function.
This going to be pass for me because I am going get the Studio Series Version of Transformers One Megatron.
Super fair! That Megatron looks sick.
Oh no IT BROKE 😂 it’s a shame too because this concept seems like a very cool toy gimmick.
Yeah, it happens, though. Part of collecting, I guess.
Mine has the same issue
That sucks. QC bug is going around.
The toy looks like from the transformers robot in the disguise
Funny you should say that, he’s a remold of Overload from RID!
Omg it’s a bakugan!!
It’s really what Whirlwing feel like!
W
🥳
No Chain Mace Weapon.
I’m afraid not.
@@ronbondujon9690 true.
I feel like this is one of the worst figures so far this year
It’s not great, but for a better price the toy itself is solid. There meat to this figure, and it’s a good solid Megatron, especially for younger fans. But no, it should not be the price of a voyager.

@@daxbashir6232 Yup.
Unfortunate mate 😂
Hey, you buy enough toys, it’s going to happen eventually. Them’s the brakes sometimes.
4:51 read my mind.
😂
Just paid $24.99 shooter doesn’t work. 😏
Gotta love it😂
this toy is so trash that the whirlwing toy is even better
edit: btw i also have this toy and it also has the same problem
Man, that sucks. So many people have been commenting recently about it. I have no idea how the gimmick became this degraded.
