I didn’t bother taking the instructions out of the plastic. I know the video is edited, but by following your finesse and calm demeanor this was, to me, an easy transformation compared to majority of people’s complaining. Thanks a million for a great video.
Oh, man! Thank you so much for your hard work. This has to be the most comprehensive transformation video for this trailer out there. Every little detail explained with extra tips on how to do each step a bit more manageable. I will be watching this video a couple more times until I get my trailer. And even use it as a guide for when the time comes for me to transform it. So, once again... thank you so much for taking the time to make these. Much appreciated.
After spending 85% of my vacation day watching, pausing, rewinding your video for a hundred times, he is finally ready. Man that little plate that needs to go over the top of the chest for the chest to reach all the way down.... Got me twice... 😉 Without Mototormaster and with. Thank you so much!!! Task completed
Excellent job, I will be referring to this when I get my trailer. I cant tell you how much I appreciate the time, effort, and I'm sure endless frustration you put into this!
You are doing good work, sir. I didn't realize X-Transbots assumed we were qualified surgeons with how precise they want us to handle the transformation.
Dude you ve saved my life i can tell you that with this one...will try and reverse it to trailer mode through the weekend using your other video...great stuff ;)
Thank you for filming this. I just received my copy yesterday, and just when I got to the part where you rotate the trailer section that makes up the lower limbs, I barely touched it and the single screw that holds the leg to the knee joint sheared off. The wind was taken out of my sails naturally. I finished the transformation, but I'm waiting to hear back if I can get a replacement knee section or I'm going to attempt to drill out the broken part and put in a stronger screw.
@@TransformsIntoAGuitar It’s the screw that is mounted through the trailer/lower leg section that attaches to the bottom of the knee joint. I don’t know why they thought that single little screw was a good idea. I’m afraid of tinkering with it too much from fear of the other leg snapping off.
This video is an absolute must! I just transformed the trailer within 2,5 hours. For now I’m neutral about the end result. The gestalt is kinda wobbly and want to fall for over or on its back.. I have to admit that I didn’t install gravestone. Was kinda done with it by then. For sure, I would have sold the trailer without this champs solid guidance!! I’ll spread your word wherever I can!
@@TransformsIntoAGuitar I think this is the same for me. I adjusted my previous comment and am kinda annoyed about it being wobbly. He do looks pretty bad ass but the wrists are loose and breakdown and wildrider don’t tab in that great. The feets are hard to pose.
@@strafe54 I found my second attempt at pegging the legbots on was far more secure, they've never been a problem since. If you fold the hands back there's a screw in the heel of the hand. Tighten it and the wrists won't be aproblem.
I just transformed this figure for the first time, and used your instructional video to do so. Based on the myriad of suggestions your video was clearly the way to go, and I thank you for it, but my God, the abject horror of this thing. I definitely have a stress-induced disorder related to this figure now.
Great video thanks! I did mine without any instructions first and broke exactly the same leg tab you did, lol! :) Just watching to see if I missed anything, or how I could have done it smoother. Dunno if it really makes it easier overall, but I ended up fully completing my torso before doing the legs so I had a fully formed torso sitting on half a trailer. Was super solid so when I did the legs there was no torso flopping around on incomplete abs/waist parts. I feel like getting back to trailer without instructions will be harder, so will check out your other vid if I give up!
Just wanted to say massive thanks for making this video! I managed to transform mine before it came out but there was a lot of frustration involved haha. These videos will help if I ever need to transform it back for sure :). Subbed!
I managed to transform mine before these videos came out as well!!! ;-) Seriously, well done! I recommend transforming it again so you can enjoy the process and admire the genius of the design.
@@TransformsIntoAGuitar haha, this is true! Might take another look at some point, just updated the vehicles with metallic waterslides and added the arm-fillers to see how they look. Can't decide which I prefer yet though. Need to add waterslides to the trailer and cab but I'm not mentally prepared yet :)
@@kek23k I think his arms are massive enough without the add ons so I haven't even taken them out the box! I just wanted the faces and shooting effects.
How early would never have been able to get this guy together without your video so thank you. I find it impossible to add Motor Master so I'm gonna just displa6him separately. Thanks Again!
Followed it to the end. Thank god for this video or my menasor would have been in pieces. Side note my hand is still raw from all the little tabs you have to dig out and clip on. Thanx!
@@TransformsIntoAGuitar yeah I started with a small screwdriver but I accidentally nicked one of the side panel when my hand slipped and thank god it’s on the inside of his chest cavity snd I am never transforming him again so it worked out but that was the end to the screw driver 😂
Wow this was awesome! My trailer will be here in a few days and I’ve been watching your videos and they are great... lol, I plan on using this video to transform mine...🌞
thanks for the video! loved the blooper section! This thing was a pain getting it to robot mode.. ill probably never switch it back to trailer due to frustration haha
Thank you! I want everyone to enjoy this trailer as much as me. Although, since I actually enjoy the transformation, I don't think many people will :-D
Kudos! I found your video quite informative. I was following another but they did some stuff wrong. I'm seriously considering filling a lot of the robot with epoxy putty so that it doesn't wobble and panels don't open. Yeah, it would make it non-transformable, but really, who wants to go through the that pain again...
Man u gotta t8ke a college course just 2 prep a combiner 🤣🤣🤣. Gr8 📹 by the way u have much more patience than me,I probably would've broke it @the slitest resistance 👍👍thanks again bro 🙏
Still the best trailer to combiner video around. Though to get some of the poses you are getting must be black magic cause mine just wants to do the splits every time
@@matthewklim2387 No. The poses at the end have been done on a very slippery table top. Not as slippery as glass, but close. I wouldn't trust it to hold wider stances.
@@TransformsIntoAGuitar I requested and received a replacement part.... it didn’t fix the problem. Mine stays on well enough as well but when I look at it I know it’s there haha
@@TransformsIntoAGuitar they sent me that clip part.. I took apart the arm and put the new bit in, obviously that wasn’t the problem and I can’t see anything else inside the arm (it’s pretty much hollow) that would correct it.
Nice job. Looks like a nightmare to transform. I have the 5 bots but I'm going to keep them to display as bots. FT Dragstrip has shipped so I guess I'll wait for their version on Menasor.
Now I understand why xtransbots unleashed tre trailer after so much time.... To design and realize this transformable thing should have been a very hard mission....
Your efforts will not go without appreciation, for you have done the lord’s work.
Amen!
IKR 🙌👏🙏

Well said.
You single handedly turn this figure from a 4/10 to an 8/10, having clear instructions is so helpful and makes this better than dx9 imo
Oh, man! Thank you so much for your hard work. This has to be the most comprehensive transformation video for this trailer out there. Every little detail explained with extra tips on how to do each step a bit more manageable. I will be watching this video a couple more times until I get my trailer.

Thanks for your essay! Although at the moment it's not hard to be the most detailed video, there's hardly anything out there.

Yep, this and the other video went straight into favourites. Public service provided towards us is highly appreciated, mate! Thank you!
Oh BTW his horn stabbed me as well, but on my pointing finger! XD
Xtransbots engineering can easily be described as: a lego set with strings connecting the pieces.
Dude, you and I bonded in a way like no other today when I used this video to tackle this beast. Thank you!!
A bond across time and space.
Designers: how many panels do you want on this combiner?
Xtransbots: yes
LMAO!
After 4+ hours, I've finally gone from trailer to base to bot. Got real tricky with the waist at the end; your help was a godsend!!
I've been intimidated for months on combining this. I couldn't have done it without you. Thank you for this very detailed video!
You, sir, will go down in legend. What a saviour! Thanks ever so much for this.
Great easy to follow instructions thanks for doing the work of a Sai t
If it wasn't for this video, I would've given up on transforming mine today. You've earned a new subscriber. Thanks again!
It makes me so happy to know it helps people.
Me too! Thanks!
I couldn't have completed this labour without your video. Thank you so much!
The best guide in UA-cam to Transform Xtransbots Menasor. Congratulations. 👏👏👏👏👏 Good job .
*takes a bow*
Thank you!
OMG MY MAN!!!!! I would have never made it without you thank you so much for doing this! NEVER EVER take this video down you're the best!
Thank you my dude!! My stupid ass fallowed your instructions, and made it through. I didn't break anything, you sir are the man. Cheers
Excellent job, I will be referring to this when I get my trailer. I cant tell you how much I appreciate the time, effort, and I'm sure endless frustration you put into this!
Without this video I wouldn't have been able to transform it. Thanks so much!
You are a hero. Couldn’t have done mine without your help. Thanx for your hard work mate 👍
Thank you for this video it helped so much in combining him. He’s hard to pose but he does look really menacing and imposing
Thanks for the video, I’m 1 hour into the transformation and 10 minutes into the video. Already see a stress mark in my abdomen
Oof, I think you'd better see a doctor about that!
XTB need to release T-shirts that say "I combined Menasor and lived!"
Great idea! They'd be really difficult to put on, though.
I love the outtakes at the end ... keeping it real 😂
You are doing good work, sir. I didn't realize X-Transbots assumed we were qualified surgeons with how precise they want us to handle the transformation.
Yes, exactly this!
I’ll be using your video tomorrow to get my figure squared away, the fact that you had bloopers is hilarious LOL
Dear god thank you for this. Got the youth version and the trailer was longest transformation of my life.
Yeah, it takes a while even when you know what you're doing!
Nice work. You helped me to avoid breaking anything! Appreciate your guide!
This video was very helpful! Thank you! I managed to follow all the steps, break nothing and have everything tabbed in just fine.
Fantastic work dude! I think I may actually buy the trailer now! Definitely appreciate all of your work/effort. 👍
Thank you so much for this! I've had the trailer sitting there for weeks, too scared to attempt it so this video was a godsend!! :)
I love how you brits say “bollucks” and “anti-clockwise”.
Lord help us. Great job man! Like how you organized the transformation > top part/bottom part.
Got here from the Bobby skullface review, he shouts you out. Just got this guy and you have been a huge help!! Thank you sir, merry Xmas to you!!
This Video has been a major Help in Transforming the Trailer. My hats off to ya. Thank You very much!!!!!!
Great job with this video and extreme patience you have with the process. Thank you.
I cannot wait for Emgo's video. Thank you sir! 😊
Thanks. I would have been lost without this video.
Dude you ve saved my life i can tell you that with this one...will try and reverse it to trailer mode through the weekend using your other video...great stuff ;)
Even with this exceptional video, the anxiety mixed with shear lack of joy I experienced transforming this beast will last a life time.
Thank you, but that's a shame you found it so traumatic. I hope you enjoy the gestalt enough to aid recovery!
Late to the party on this one but finally got the upper body transformed thanks to your video. now on to the lower body and to a finished combiner!❤
LOL you needed to take a break in the middle?
Dude.. xtransbot owe you big time. Great video.
Haha! Tell THEM that!
Just got my trailer today and am looking forward to using this as a guide! Thanks for your hard work!
Thanks, you're the only one so far that's shown how to set up motormaster. Couldn't for the life of me get that waist/hipskirt thing flipped over
Thank you for filming this. I just received my copy yesterday, and just when I got to the part where you rotate the trailer section that makes up the lower limbs, I barely touched it and the single screw that holds the leg to the knee joint sheared off.

That's awful. I wonder if they used two different batches of screws. I've transformed mine and posed him loads with no knee problems.
@@TransformsIntoAGuitar It’s the screw that is mounted through the trailer/lower leg section that attaches to the bottom of the knee joint. I don’t know why they thought that single little screw was a good idea. I’m afraid of tinkering with it too much from fear of the other leg snapping off.
@@GartheKnightReturns I know which screw you mean, there have been a few reports of that same problem.
just a quick thing. The legs for the trailer, if you slide them to the side they lock firmly n place and will no longer fold in
THANK YOU! The instructions say to slide them when transforming the feet but that made no sense.
Thanks a lot for the transformation guide! It helped me a lot. Much appreciated.
This video is an absolute must! I just transformed the trailer within 2,5 hours. For now I’m neutral about the end result. The gestalt is kinda wobbly and want to fall for over or on its back.. I have to admit that I didn’t install gravestone. Was kinda done with it by then.

Thank you! I used all my brain power on the editing.
@@TransformsIntoAGuitar No worries. Thanks again for the hard work!
Thank you. This helped a ton.
The edit at 10:53 How did you get to the next step? I can't get that panel lined up with the sides of the torso right.

Good job. Those are some nice poses you photographed. How were you able to get this item so soon. Where do you live?

Nope. It changes the balance but there's no issue of structural integrity without him installed.
Much thanks to you
He will stay as menasor forever.
That's a shame. I love seeing Motormaster with his trailer.
I really want to transform back and forth, but the immense weights involved on either side of that teensy waist joint wake me up at night.
