3:58 "too big" Well Optimus in the bayverse movies was 28 foot tall while the Fallen was 40 foot tall. Optimus was only able to match the Fallen's height after getting Jetfire's parts, which made Prime 40 foot tall. So in Scale, the Fallen should absolutely dwarf Optimus.
Honestly, the OV01 would scale with him if he was a bit shorter. And also, the fallen scales a bit better with the thunder leader. I also find the AOI Megatron a little too tall if he was a little shorter it would be perfect scaling
ROTF's scale is just weird all over, cause Megatron was the same height as Prime in both the Forest Battle and after Prime got Jetfire's parts. As well as other bots like Devastator being too big for how big he should be with all the Constructicons combined together.
It's just. too. big. I'm sure plenty of people will try and justify the scaling logic, that's fine if they like it, but for me, Black Mamba simply takes it too far with their sizes. They gotta chill out lol. Thanks for the thorough review Ben! I always look forward to your take on these figures.
Got mine on preorder three days ago! Love it, other than the two thumbs on each hand thst come off too easily. Tight ratchets all around, and reflective paint that looks as if it is a different color at every angle under the right light conditions. I LOVE my oversized bayformers/knightformers!!! But, i also collect and love any g1 mp or oversize g1 mp as i was born in 1973 and grew up with g1. My sons g1 is tf prime and bayformers.
Don’t think he did on screen but it’s a hasbro SS figure and they can exactly sell a transformer that doesn’t transform, similar situation to bumblebee shock wave and sound-wave
I didn't like the official Studio Series version because it got very little improvements over the original Voyager figure from over a decade ago. This version at least is bigger and scales better and the colors pop. Thanks for the review!
I don’t think the fallen is “a smidge too small” like you said when showcasing him alongside his fellow Decepticon peak figures. It’s just that that Megatron you used is a smidge too tall. MPF The Plane or T08 Megatron are at a better height. I’m not sure which figure you used for Starscream.
Yeah, Skids is the green one, Mudflap is the orange one. But wow...didn't expect them to make SS91 The Fallen SO DAMN HUGE!! 😑😑😑😡😡😡 So much for a worthy version to go with the Studio Series figures...may as well just hunt down SS91 or even the original RotF Voyager.
hello ben, i bought DS troublemaker yesterday, is there any bot besides split who pain in the ass for transforming, sry my bad english, greeting from indonesia
They should have just made The Fallen into a giant Insecticon. It would be cooler than that disastrous monstrosity they call a jet. It's almost as bad as MetaGate Drift's helicopter mode.
Isn't he just barely 40cm? Because if he's that height without having his legs fully stretched out then he scales perfectly with the other oversized, excepting Megatron, the BMB Megatron and Optimus are waaay too big.
Yesssss he’s back!!! Missed this channel and it’s to post a figure no other channel has properly done yet this is a blessing
i already own this dude, but I still watch your reviews anyway ahahha.
Great review Ben
3:58 "too big"

I love the robot mode but can't get over the fact that the jet mode looks like a spider doing a yoga pose.
lol it really does
🎯🎯🎯🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just got mine, put him under/in black light/UV in the dark, he's stunning!! All the orange paint is UV reactive!
Oooooh the articulated hands are amazing and a hugeeee improvement in my opinion!! If a company made an upgrade kit for him, i'd 100% buy it!
Glad you back Ben!!!!!
It's just. too. big. I'm sure plenty of people will try and justify the scaling logic, that's fine if they like it, but for me, Black Mamba simply takes it too far with their sizes. They gotta chill out lol.

Glad to see a notification for this channel. Feels like its been a while.👍🤙
The boy's back! That makes two of us!
Love to see you back!
Kinda wish he had articulated toes. Minor nitpick tho, still a very solid figure
He always reminds me of General Grevus from STAR WARS, I have one coming soon.
Finally a new review.
Never been this early before. XD This Fallen is crazyyyy.
Welcome to the early show lol
Love channel and awesome review on this transformer. Hope you do more of the ko and oversized figures. Thank you for your time and review.
Thanks for the shoutout haha. Can’t to wait to open this figure!
Long time no see. Glad you're back.
Also, are you planning to review Black Apple M06 Ironhide?
Got mine on preorder three days ago! Love it, other than the two thumbs on each hand thst come off too easily.
Tight ratchets all around, and reflective paint that looks as if it is a different color at every angle under the right light conditions.
I LOVE my oversized bayformers/knightformers!!!
But, i also collect and love any g1 mp or oversize g1 mp as i was born in 1973 and grew up with g1.
My sons g1 is tf prime and bayformers.
A shame it wasn't not named Apep.
Fantastic, I thought that The Fallen did not transform.
Don’t think he did on screen but it’s a hasbro SS figure and they can exactly sell a transformer that doesn’t transform, similar situation to bumblebee shock wave and sound-wave
BEN!!!!!! WTF!?!?!?!?! Dude, I dont' even know you and I've missed your videos so much! Welcome back!!!!
I didn't like the official Studio Series version because it got very little improvements over the original Voyager figure from over a decade ago. This version at least is bigger and scales better and the colors pop.
Thanks for the review!
love this mold and would've probably grabbed this KO of it, but i don't know why both feature not very strong hip joints for their sizes.
The Fallen being gigantic isn't too jarring. Amplifies his threat level.
BIG BOI the Fallen
Def looks good but i think the blue ruins it a little. If i ever get it ill paint the blue parts red and black to match the packaging render
I don’t think the fallen is “a smidge too small” like you said when showcasing him alongside his fellow Decepticon peak figures. It’s just that that Megatron you used is a smidge too tall. MPF The Plane or T08 Megatron are at a better height. I’m not sure which figure you used for Starscream.
I've got this coming soon (hopefully today, or next week depending on Hermes/Evri) and cant wait.
Does the paint glow in the dark?
do you have a size comparison with BA Optimus Prime?
If he had LEDs he would be a 10/10
Yeah, Skids is the green one, Mudflap is the orange one. But wow...didn't expect them to make SS91 The Fallen SO DAMN HUGE!! 😑😑😑😡😡😡 So much for a worthy version to go with the Studio Series figures...may as well just hunt down SS91 or even the original RotF Voyager.
What happened to your black Apple Ironhide?
hello ben, i bought DS troublemaker yesterday, is there any bot besides split who pain in the ass for transforming, sry my bad english, greeting from indonesia
Megatronus Prime
Sadly too big for my MPM ish collection
Using RotF Leader Prime as my baseline so mostly all og deluxes
Can you review baiwei SS54 megatron ?
That's not a Cybertronian jet, its a Cebertronian Insect... Its an Insecticon.
They should have just made The Fallen into a giant Insecticon. It would be cooler than that disastrous monstrosity they call a jet. It's almost as bad as MetaGate Drift's helicopter mode.
I thought you retired
Isn't he just barely 40cm? Because if he's that height without having his legs fully stretched out then he scales perfectly with the other oversized, excepting Megatron, the BMB Megatron and Optimus are waaay too big.
I bought the same one from RRR toy store from aliexpres and the ripped me off send me incomplete figure and lied about shipping time BUYER BEWARE
I really don’t get why they made him purple. It’s so jarring.
@ben please do black mamba ironhide
Lovely colours, sup-par character design and too expensive. Easy pass.
Hard to make a terrible figure better by just making it bigger,I absolutely hated the original this doesn't look any better
