hOLY MOTHER~! i REMEMBERED this guy, from masterforce? Back in the early days of ebay, this baby in Japanese packaging sometimes cost as much as $1,000 sgd.
Oh wow, he's way taller than I thought he was going to be for some reason. Thought he might be like classics/voyager sized or something. Tempted, very tempted.
Rakatan384 It's Hasbro's new strategy. They release the version of a mold that not many people will want first, then release the mold as the character people want so they get more money. Would you buy, say, Sentinel Prime if Astrotrain came out first?
+StarGazer The First Yeah, seems to have started with Motormaster being released as Optimus Prime before Motormaster. I think that one may have backfired though, they look similar enough that everyone wanted the new OP, and ignored the Motormaster "repaint".
+StarGazer The First I totally agree with you, I just saw a lot more pictures of people with CW Prime than I did with Motormaster. Especially with all the upgrade kits.
You actually didn't move the backpack all the way up. The manual doesn't explain it very well but part of the wings pegs into the back so you can't really move the backpack without moving the wing parts away (the wing hinges on the sides are not supposed to be visible in robot mode)
I finally found a decent deal on him and I'm about to pull the trigger. Quick question beforehand though: How is the weight distribution? I was a little surprised at his hollow shins. Is he very topheavy or unstable, especially with all the kit hanging off him? I'd hate to see him tumble out of my shelf at the slightest provocation...
Thanks for the great review! I can't wait to get him now, he looks so awesome! That shot of him holding the gun in one hand with no problem was a question I have had since the test shot versions. Thanks! With the size of the moving pieces and the small tabs that lock them into place, do you feel the tabs will break? I have several MMC figures and their quality is always great, but this guy is in a league of his own.
Imma comment on this because he mentioned it in the video, but is it me or are all of the newer mmc toys using lighter/cheaper plastic? Their Spartan/Commotus didn't have the heft I've come to associate mmc figures with.
I still think there's a motorboat mode in there- which is good, I'd like some more water-based bots on my shelf. Y'know, looking at the face, it suddenly reminds me of Tigerhawk- and given his origin in Beast Wars, I wouldn't mind seeing an Air Razor/ Tigertron repaint. Great review as always. I'm looking forward to getting this guy (girl? isn't Overlord both in the original cartoon?).
Hey Peaugh Great review as always :D love Overlord/Carnifex :DHow's the plastic quality etc. on Carnifex? Does it feel cheap or does it feel like it will last a long time?Anything that you feel (points, parts, etc etc) are at risk of breaking/snapping of?
SCOTT MACKIE but him on a disk on the other side of your bedroom, and have the (last stand of the wreckers) head on and have it tilted to the side while it stares at you, you will begin to become disturbed by this toy
Wish they could have worked in two Powermasters even though the IDW source material ignores that feature from G1. I guess I will comment on their facebook page.
I know it's probably not really accurate to the comic, but I would like a more neutral facial expression. Nothing to stop MMC or a fourth party doing more heads- or I could make my own. I do like it when we get optional faces.
While I really like this figure, I'm too old too deal with transforming complexity and TABS!!! Thank god for the Titans War/Takara variant as it's nice and simple, not many parts either.... Still it's very nice representation though....
I got him for Christmas he is a mean sob I don't like the comic it makes him look weak and so do his Stats I think that if they didn't put that freaking bomb on his lag he would have done something awesome I truly think he is one of my best transformers I've ever got
I just ordered him from bigbadtoystore.com I am getting him for Christmas I can't wait to me he is more evil then megatron he is massive and dangerous and insanely awesome
Im glad they chose to make his face based on the last stand of the wreckers final battle. It makes him so much more creepy and menacing.
Oh he's a menacing mother...
Brings back Last Stand nightmares
Can't wait for the BBTS shipment of this guy to ship in.
Team Train-Wreck Me and you both!
Well... I never thought I'd shell out the insane price for a third party figure...
Today has brought change to my life.
Sanctuary312 this is going to be my first third party toy hands down. I don't care about price
I need all these in my life flippen loved last stand of the wreckers one of those comic storys i can read more than once
hOLY MOTHER~! i REMEMBERED this guy, from masterforce? Back in the early
days of ebay, this baby in Japanese packaging sometimes cost as much as
$1,000 sgd.
Very nice. I can't wait for Kultur
Amazing figure. They really nailed this one
Oh wow, he's way taller than I thought he was going to be for some reason. Thought he might be like classics/voyager sized or something.
Tempted, very tempted.
E Overaker I think this is actual scale in term of the Generations Springer and Kup. Wait, was Kup in Generations? I can't remember.
if his entire body was visible perfectly in the dark, he would be creepier than a the spooky doll
Peaugh will I be seeing you at TFcon Chicago??
I will be there.
peaugh hey peaugh will you be getting test shots of Lupus, grinder and or sovereign
peaugh I'll be getting carnifex for Christmas
Great looking figure, I had him on preorder but cancelled it to get a few other figures from OX, but will definitely be getting him at some point.
Speaking of Overlord, we saw Black Shadow/Sky Shadow at NYCC. I have a feeling they might remold him into Overlord eventually. Would you agree?
That Black Shadow pretty obviously was a remold of Overlord. They're just releasing the remold first for some reason.
Rakatan384 It's Hasbro's new strategy. They release the version of a mold that not many people will want first, then release the mold as the character people want so they get more money. Would you buy, say, Sentinel Prime if Astrotrain came out first?

Rakatan384 Backwards? Nah. Who really wanted CW Prime? He was fine enough but he didn't fit the mold. Motormaster was the main event.
+StarGazer The First I totally agree with you, I just saw a lot more pictures of people with CW Prime than I did with Motormaster. Especially with all the upgrade kits.
that wrecker (forgot his name) and over Lord are way bigger than I expected
awesome!
Peaugh overlord reminds me from my comic book of the last stand of the wreckers.
*singing*
"parts-former!
robot in pieces"
"you are going to lose an arm or leg some day and you are going to cry"
blvk3 This guy isn't like G1 Omega Supreme where you have tiny little piece to lose. How the fuck are you gonna lose half of an entire tank?
So this works with an MP collection scale wise. I do not know the character that well
man that is sweet toys
That's like taller than Leader Class, like Ultimate Class....WOW!
Gr8 Review Peaugh. Just wondering if you or anyboy can answer but how tall is he exactly? Is her Feral rex size?
He's not quite as tall as Feral Rex. I'll get an exact measurement when I get home this evening.
I hope this helps,

+Daniel Hernández Solano Thanks dude!
np :)
Looks amazing! Does g1 powermasters fit in his chest?
You actually didn't move the backpack all the way up. The manual doesn't explain it very well but part of the wings pegs into the back so you can't really move the backpack without moving the wing parts away (the wing hinges on the sides are not supposed to be visible in robot mode)
Didn't Overlord get a damaged eye in the Japanese Masterforce series as well? I remember Deathasaurus did.
where did you get that
If only I had the money for this...
What is a really good Arcee figure?
I finally found a decent deal on him and I'm about to pull the trigger. Quick question beforehand though: How is the weight distribution? I was a little surprised at his hollow shins.

With the size of the moving pieces and the small tabs that lock them into place, do you feel the tabs will break? I have several MMC figures and their quality is always great, but this guy is in a league of his own.
No issues I've seen with the tabs so far.
Hi peaugh , will you review kfc jungle warrior simba ??
Imma comment on this because he mentioned it in the video, but is it me or are all of the newer mmc toys using lighter/cheaper plastic? Their Spartan/Commotus didn't have the heft I've come to associate mmc figures with.

Great review as always. I'm looking forward to getting this guy (girl? isn't Overlord both in the original cartoon?).
BrainComm487
no, over lord is a guy. he had 2 pilots one was make and the other female, but he's make robot
Ahh okay.
BrainComm487
male* not make, autocorrect :P
Are you going to do a review for the MMC R-15 Jaegertron(lockdown)?
Yep! He'll be here today or tomorrow.
Awesome. Ty for the reply :)
What do you think? This guy or MAS 1 18 inch Optimus Prime?
Hey Peaugh
Great review as always :D love Overlord/Carnifex :DHow's the plastic quality etc. on Carnifex? Does it feel cheap or does it feel like it will last a long time?Anything that you feel (points, parts, etc etc) are at risk of breaking/snapping of?
He feels amazingly solid. Impressive for such a large figure.
Even the smallest parts too? :D
I may be getting him for Christmas
SCOTT MACKIE but him on a disk on the other side of your bedroom, and have the (last stand of the wreckers) head on and have it tilted to the side while it stares at you,
you will begin to become disturbed by this toy
I don't scare esily
On the comic it looked like his chest opened up to missile banks...is this true?
Dammit....literally two seconds after I ask you ht me with that burn...lol well played
Was expecting a comparison shot with Ultra Magnus or Reximus Prime. Can you do a Carnifex and Reximus shot please!
I don't have reximus.
AWESOME REVIEW ! ...... wish I had enough money.......
dont worry there is a hasbro one coming out
optiprimas no they won't be hasbro an takara have nothing to do with this
SCOTT MACKIE no they are making a overlord figure.........
If they do it won't be as godly as Carnifex is
SCOTT MACKIE there is no way that sky shadow is not going to be repainted into overlord
Wish they could have worked in two Powermasters even though the IDW source material ignores that feature from G1. I guess I will comment on their facebook page.
what is the characters name it's based off of
overlord
tfwiki.net/wiki/Overlord_(Masterforce)
Eventhough I prefer the Fanshobby Overlord! Still an Amazing figure forsure!
日本語で御免なさいね。私も、カスタムパーツ込の「carnifex(オーバロード)」を持っています。此方(こちら)の「破壊大使」が、オリジナル性が強いと思います。現在はレジェンズ版「ゴッドジンライ」のライバルとしても又、「破壊大使」としても4代目リーダーとしての役割を果たしています。サイト主さんの「carnifex(オーバロード)」の変形操作も、とても丁寧だと思います。
Not going to lie, I'm a little sad that there wasn't a size comparison with PE's Warden, but I'm happy with the review nonetheless.
I know it's probably not really accurate to the comic, but I would like a more neutral facial expression. Nothing to stop MMC or a fourth party doing more heads- or I could make my own.
I do like it when we get optional faces.
Eh i dont mind to much cause its his signature face he had in last stand of the wrecks where he rips out his own fucking eyeball.
how long does it take to design this? damn
Carnifex eh should I make metal band joke or a freaky space bug joke. Hmm thats a tough choice
IT TOOK YOU ENTIRELY TOO LONG TO PUT THE LEFT HIP GUARD BACK DOWN I NEARLY HAD STROKE AFTER THE THIRD MINUTE PASSED
overlord
Even though he's based more on his Last Stand appearance, can you do a base mode with this guy?
LordNido do you even listen?
They gotta do the breast master figures.
While I really like this figure, I'm too old too deal with transforming complexity and TABS!!! Thank god for the Titans War/Takara variant as it's nice and simple, not many parts either.... Still it's very nice representation though....
never mind
I got him for Christmas he is a mean sob I don't like the comic it makes him look weak and so do his Stats I think that if they didn't put that freaking bomb on his lag he would have done something awesome I truly think he is one of my best transformers I've ever got
oh hey im early
I just ordered him from bigbadtoystore.com I am getting him for Christmas I can't wait to me he is more evil then megatron he is massive and dangerous and insanely awesome
too many parts forming
dose lips di
I'd like these videos a lot more if they came with less IDW virtue signalling.
