This video just helped me transform my new MP Prowl back into alt mode.
This video helped me finish my early morning bowel movement.
that is what I wished the G1 toys looked like back in the day
Prowl is my favorite transformer (with Jazz and Soundwave as close runner-ups) and I just got this toy as a birthday gift! My first transformer toy. So happy right now! Thanks for the video. I don't think I could have transformed him without you :)
They need to do a Masterpiece Jazz!!!
Being a fan of the Martini Racing team and Jazz I whole-heartedly second that idea!
its a sad fact that we will most likley NEVER see an offical mp jazz as the whole piont of the series is to have show and g1 accurate alt modes and porsche have REFUSED to give has / tak permission to use that alt mode design as they have said they dont want their products associated with an "alien robot war" [wtf,its a bit late for that now] and i cant see them has / tak making 1 with a different alt mode [defeats the whole purpose imo].having said that porsche and volkswagon are now merged into 1 company and vw gave permission to use the bug / bettle mode,hence mp bumblebee so you never know
Max Brandt i agree.it just dont make sense
monkey bubbles I think it has something to do with political correctness and guilt from the events from WWII, hopefully they will get over themselves and relax their stanch on this marketing issue.
It could be that.im surprised that no 3rd party company has done an mp jazz yet
I'm 8 years late, but finally got one for my detolf today.
He's awesome!
That sucks...i'd take it up with your delivery service
The shoulder cannons were originally wire guided missiles from memory, so that's quite a change from the original spec, but he does look fantastic, and he was one of my favorites, and I actually broke mine as a child, so this one is tempting me sorely if it's still available!
Great to see your back!! Optibotimus Rises!! : )
i really want a masterpiece version of cliffjumper
Welcome back Paul and glad to see your back to doing reviews even after your knee surgery. Hope you get well soon and your able to play hockey once again even though i have a feeling it might be a good while before that happens. Take your time with rehab and come back even stronger.
By the way, since wheeljack is your favorite character and there is a masterpiece of him coming out I'll bet your really excited.
You can actually extend the shoulder cannons to get a better look. The silver inside is actually the pin for the extension.
These are just like the alternators.
RIP Prowl
killed by Constructicon Scavenger, thirty four years ago
glad you're feeling better. That MP Prowl seems like it'd be a good little distraction for your mind whilst your body is healing up.
Just got the KO version of this (I cant afford a proper MP sadly, and its mainly for display in robot mode anyway), and yeah I agree, fiddly as hell to Transform the legs. Mine was pretty hard to transform too as the joints were stiff and it obviously had never been transformed out of vehicle mode, so had a hard time getting the back windows to split to form the feet >.
from what i remember Paul mentioned that they won't do a Masterpiece Bumblebee cause VW doesn't want their licensed products to be affiliated with war type characters which is why they used the Camero for the live movies.
This was a great review... But my favorite was when you boiled, hammerd, and put animated starscream in a garbage disposer!
Good to se you back to the reviewing table optibotimus.Means a lot to me
My Prowl arrived today. A brilliant figure, I'll be buying the Dr Wu launchers to make him look even better.
Masterpiece engineering in these figures is amazing
ur recovery thought u might be out for at least 2 months or more but glad ur back! :)
i wish that police cars were that cool today i would love to see police officers driving nissan fairladys
excelent review!!! Thx!!
Greetz from Lima-Peru
Hi Paul. Cool review. Picked up mine yesterday on your advice and delighted with it and thanks for showing how to put him back to car mode
Thank you for coming back.
wow lots of mp figs do have amazing head sculpts but som arent to cartoon accurate but it prowls looks 100% perfect
i hope u did not rush ur recovery to do this for us but still its awesome to see u doin reviews again. if u needa take time for recovery take your time the videos can wait health is more important.GWS optibotimus
Good to see you back. Just a bit of trivia for you...Nissan bought Datsun, which Prowl was originally a Datsun.
happy to see you back. hope the knee is feeling better.
*DATSUN* not Nissan! But that's all ancient history now.
Really nice offering of a MP G1 character, very Japanese with the location of the sideview mirrors too!
I got my MP Prowl from Thomas today. It's very awesome.
It took me a long time to realize his shoulder cannons extend out. Hence the silver pins inside the cannons.
Great to have you back.
Thanks for keeping your review real! I still don't like how small the MP cars are, more apparent in bot mode next to MP Prime.
the sideview mirrors part have to go in the actual groves not outside so that it goes in the gap without problem
The shoulder cannons extend out aswell. Great review welcome back
Ladies and gentlemen. The king of reviews is back!!!
optibotimus you are the best reviewer and that means that since you have so many viewers you are going to be a pro
Man great come back. I had a feeling you were going to review it. So I waited and did not watch any other reviews of this figure.
Those hollow legs bug the hell out of me too. Before release I only saw it from the front, and it looked better than sideswipe.
Great review Optibotimus! Welcome back!
prowl's a legendary prick in the comics, and his figure having a slightly prickish transformation makes sense. Great MP, great video, made me want to buy it. He really looks like the G1 show, toy, and a bit like the comic as well. Excellent review!
I just go back to 80s rigt know.. great piece
Prowl is a cool masterpiece. I wish they would make a masterpiece Bruticus....that would be cool.
Great to see you back, in the running optibotimus. The review as always is amazing, and informative will think about getting one for myself.
Your knee must be better because you are back kicking ass. Awesome review!
He's back ladies and gentlemen . Presenting the one the only Optibotimus
Shoulder cannons actually extend/telescope out and click, making this feature even more awesome! Just saying...
Welcome back good sir. Prowl looks amazing.
glad you are back working and the knee is doing better.
i had the G1 prowl toy and i thought that one was the greatest but this one beats it hands down.
The best of the Nissans(straight out of the package). Something striking about it on the shelf with its color scheme and face sculpt. Blue streak/streak is second but smoke screen with the label set from China(not reprolabels) looks really great, wish it had a better head sculpt though.
been waiting so long 4 this guy!!! great review Paul! were obviously not gonna get a hasbro cuz its a licensed product
I sure hope there will never be a masterpiece bumblebee.
Let us have a little breather from all the bee toys we got. no, I want a masterpiece Jazz, for crying out loud!!
My Prowl doesn't roll at all!! front wheels won't move on any surface, but I still love this figure!
Very faithful to the G1. Love it. Will definitely be getting one.
i'm so glad that your better
I pretty much agree with the complaints you have but the one id like to add is the lack of points/tips on his wings/doors like on the cartoon. Always thought that added a lil something to his look.
Just got him today, although I was unhappy on the delivery.
"PACKAGE" said the delivery man, then just dumped the package on the ground in front of my door.
No scanning of Tracking Number to say it was delivered, no handing of the package to the recipient. Anyone could have picked up the package if I was not home.
He is now happy standing next to LAMBOR (Sideswipe), watching for Decepticreeps!
yeah I just cheked.. my bad for arguing, it was announced along with wheeljack and if I am not mistaking the black sideswipe
I've got two of these , one had bad qc issues the other had zero and he is a perfect figure best transformer figure in my opinion to date out of the entire toy line well that an mp10
also good too see you better paul!
Wow what an amazing figure now his in my hand, I can't believe how small they are I don't know why I was expecting anything bigger, but a great figure none the less
Omg your back thnx for recovering I was waiting.....patiently we will say for your next video welcome back paul
need a siege line prowl,sunstreaker,and wheeljack to go along with sideswipe.
I use to have the G1 Prowl, and was my favorite figure.
I picked up this version of MP-17 Prowl about a week ago.
We need a megatron masterpiece on scale that comes with a scale version of his alt mode so other masterpiece figures can hold him
Since I am usually of limited funds for MP figs...I am only getting one version of this mold, Smokescreen, since his car mode is my favorite of the 3...plus I always liked him more than Prowl and Bluestreak :)
Thanks for the review, I think I will be getting this guy soon.
One question for anyone reading; ...I notice that a lot of popular youtube toy reviewers recommend/advertise BBTS. I'm wondering if you guys get a kickback or something? Sorry if that's too personal or something, I'm just wondering why so many people buy from there when their prices all seem to be so crazy high?
Do they do special discounts or something that I'm not aware of? Because everything I've looked at there can be found elsewhere for much less.
For example, Prowl is almost $90 shipped on BBTS, and only $65 shipped on ebay.
...just curious.
Omg two prowl reviews in a row!!
Got this a couple weeks ago. The TRU excluisive Hasbro release one. Great figure. And I agree with you on his Hollow Legs. UGH!
Also I feel like I'm gonna break off his chest section though when trying to bend it out straight seperating that tab from the slot inside when transforming him back to Vehicle mode.
This vid was extremely helpful to me transforming this figure, thanks!
Glad your better dude!!
Can't wait! Mine is in the mail
Im so excited for mp wheeljack
u nail this review as always man, well done. Im getting my figure sunday! cant wait
Welcome back, great review thank you..
Glad to see the reviews up again! Just as a suggestion for some future reviews: I saw some pre orders for third party cassettes of Beastbox and Slamdance that would probably be pretty cool to review. Just an idea, looking forward to all the videos
HE'S BACK! OH SWEET MAYOR OF BURBANK HE'S BACK!!!!!! THANK THE ALLSPARK!!!!!!
Thank you for the details. he just arrived and OMG I love this figure. Keep up the great work
can anybody please help me? when i'm trying to transform prowl into his vehicle mode his head won't go through the hole, and i feel like i'm going to break it if i force it forward to go through the gap.
but the little things are in the way and the head won't go through.
Yes yes yes yes yes!!! Optibotimus yes
personally i have always gravitated towards
smokescreen when selecting a figure of this body type.
Hey glad your better
They prob want that cause the old g1 guys could (the fit in truck thing). I like it
Great to see you back at reviewing figures again :) Been waiting for your review on Prowl since he came out. Did you remember to pre-order MP-22 Ultra Magnus w/trailer at BBTS yet? Thabks for the Prowl review :)
i think that they would just have to downsize the original mp megatron and that would be it mirage it would be great but i think you are right and jazz is the more must have for the autobot fans
and btw have you heard that takara might do a new cartoon accurate mp ultra magnus
Welcome back!
I'm just going to say that this may be the easiest mpm transformer ever
Yet another MP I simply MUST have.... I should stop viewing your vids; they are the reason for me wanting them :P
All goofiness aside, you do a GREAT job Paul!
How is your recovery going?
regards, David
hey have you heard? masterpiece bumblebee ultra magnus and wheeljack are coming out soon im excited to see the new ultra magnus he will be awesome so will everyone else
I wonder what wheeljack and bumblebee will be like
well your getting there and im happy about it cuz your awesome
have you seen the Warbotron or whatever it's called 3rd party Bruticus? It looks amazing.
they are definitely doing a MP Bumblebee
Welcome Back! Awesome figure great review.
welcome back how's the leg doin'
Glad your back:)
