I swapped out my straight knock off out for this one and I have none of the issues you had with him. Cannon is nice and tight, laser beam fits the gun perfectly and no stability issues whatsoever. Oh and the Led in the cannon switches off automatically after 20 seconds or so. All in all, I'm glad I switched him out.
Really glad you did this review. I've been wanting to pick up a KO Megatron, but wasn't sure which to go with. Was leaning to THF thanks to the purple cannon and toy head/chest, but after seeing this, yeah I think I'll go with the IT. Unless that has major issues as well, lol. But yeah, I dig how you gave everything an indepth look and really focus on the quality in a clear manner. Made this really informative and enjoyable to watch.
Thanks a lot mate, Im really happy you found my review useful :) I have the IT on my desk, but haven't taken a close look at it yet. There's also the Magten KO mp36 coming, bright silver with red inner calves. What do you think of it?
I do like the idea of toy accurate coloring, and for the longest time it was my preferred colors for Megatron period. But the MP surprised me with just how much I've come to love the show colors instead. There's something really nice about the combination of grey/darker grey instead of silver/black/red. But I might change my tune if I see the Magten one with toy chest/head, of course. While on the topic of KOs: Will you be doing a review of the one for Origin Leonidas as well? Reeeaaally curious how that one stacks up, especially the Xerxes colorscheme with how radically different that is compared to the 'official' one coming out.
Im not sure, I have 3 Leonidas already, and Im only really happy with one of them lol. Everything I hear on the CN message boards is that, the NT Origins have substantially better joints though, so It might be worth it.
Oof, that's rough. Yeah I can understand bowing out then. That's good at least. Though damn, I wish I didn't have to turn to the KO just to be assured of some joint tightness. Hoping they get TM2 Megatron right in one go, that really is the nr.1 thing I want from them.
So uh Bots and Bits I think that since you pushed that little screw thing into the meteor mace it could not come out so like it was locked in to the mace and i think this is the best KO megatron ever NO JOKE BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
I didn't have the problem with the cannon. Mine was nice and tight (a bit scary at first getting it off). Also, no problem with fitting the posable mace either. That the sword falls out the gun is a fail. Guess they never tested for that and just made the gun barrel much bigger.
Sold my Takara KO and just picked this up. And off the bat, THF is miles better in terms of paint and tolerances. That gunmetal finish though! Glad the cannon isn't warped like yours so the fit was great. The forearm was also not loose so it can hold the cannon firmly well. I have a similar flaw on my left foot being a little raised but I kind of pushed it back in and now it has no problem standing up with just a smidge tilt on its right side. Nothing annoying though and I'm very satisfied with my copy.
Awesome review. Can you tell me does the Toyhouse figure come with any Decepticon Stickers to put on the chest plates? These look very bare compared to the Masterpiece.
Maybe it's CQ or maybe they've running improvements over the last few years, but I just got mine recently I while it does have a few bugaboos it seems like they have tried to improve some stuff. Mine is a little bit stiffer...he's held most of the poses I've put him in so far. Only issues I have are the cannon (not a huge issue really as it's super snug once you move it down a click), the hand pops off a lot (grrrrrr!!! ...please god do NOT let it have gone under the couch!), and some friction joints in the shoulders I have to pledge up (and hopefully won't spill floor polish everywhere this time). Everything else is pretty tight and good. All in all...for $80 with shipping I can't complain!
my gun was fine completely worked, doesnt fall off and my light doesnt stay on. also dont want to take the ball off the chain, and lazer sword dosnt fit gun aswell.
great review as always,not silver enough for me, i want the apollyon silver, quick note, if you do MFT/iron factory (i dont know if its easier) can you do them in batches? like 2-3 bots a time?
You'll want the Magten KO coming soon then. Its super shiny and has red innder calves. I have some Iron Factory bots here. When I get a chance, I'll probably stick to what comes in the box. So like Sideswipe & Sunstreaker in one vid.
The original Infinite Transformation included those addons. Although now, not all of them do. You'll have to contact your favorite seller to find out. You may end up having to purchase the Modfans Upgrade set for IT MP36.
Bots and Bits Sorry, which add ons? Just to clarify, what is included with each: MP36? Infinite? Dynatron? I want to buy a Dynatron as he should have the G1 face / hairy chest pieces. So what's included with each version? Thanks.
Great review man. Quite frustrating that your copy has slight qc issues. So close to being a great figure. Such a shame. The only problem with mine is that i cant really line up the back skirts straight. Over all im pretty pleased with my figure. Oh yeah i Got the same problems with the stand too.
Unlike others here, I realize that all version will have a qc issue of some kind , and still think this is the best of all of the megatron ko’s.

I love your KO reviews. Helps a lot
Just ordered one for me. I own THF Sonicwave/Soundwave and I like it. Can't wait to put my hands on him. Great review as always :)

The manufacturer doesnt include any. Some chinese sellers do however..

Great review. Really helpful. If you haven't already, will you be doing a review of the Infinite Transformation IT-01 version of MP-36?
Philip Amodei Yes, it will be up in a day or so :)
I love it however the cannon drains the battery anyone else have this issue?
Great review. Is there anyway to improve the foot issue in bot mode? I have this version and for me it’s the only problem with mine.
my gun was fine completely worked, doesnt fall off and my light doesnt stay on. also dont want to take the ball off the chain, and lazer sword dosnt fit gun aswell.

the original has paint issues so thats not a problem here overall THF did an amazing job in my opinion
Does the G1 face/hairy chest come with all Dynastrons? Very tempted by him...
AFAIK all THF -03's include the face and chest. Pays to querie your favorite store first though if you're concerned.
Bots and Bits Which KO have the back plate and extra light up with sound fusion cannons? Thanks.
The original Infinite Transformation included those addons. Although now, not all of them do. You'll have to contact your favorite seller to find out.
You may end up having to purchase the Modfans Upgrade set for IT MP36.

I want to buy a Dynatron as he should have the G1 face / hairy chest pieces. So what's included with each version? Thanks.
Dammit... why does the KO have the voice clips I want? I just want a Masterpiece Frank Welker... IS THAT SO MUCH TO ASK FOR?!?!?
Enigma2K99 You can buy the Modfans Canon set if thats all you want :)
Comes with a back plate as well, but it doesnt quite fit takara mp36 properly
20:00 mines the same with the black. But other than that he's perfect!
Botsandbits Are you going to get the THF Ultra Magnus, and if you do, can you do a review?
Yes I will be, should have it next week some time :)

That's right, I feel like most people would have 1, maybe 2 of the issues I had.
Looking forward to the IT Review 😀
Are you going to review the Infinite Transformations KO Megatron.
Yep, have it here on my desk right now :)
Bots and Bits Is it going to be your next review?
How much do we wait for IT video? I'm in need of info on which one to get for certain - THF or IT.
Mihajlo Knezevic I prefer the IT one because they fixed the paint issue.
Not sure, I also have LT Wasp, KO Grapple, MFT Springer and some Iron Factory bots sitting here to be filmed lol
Will you be doing a review of Magten?
xX ThatGuyAce Xx I wasnt intending to, Ive run out of cash to Megatrons lol. If someone provides one I'll do it :)
the led is always on.... great so you got the option to switch on the led without having another switch. this is nice.😆
13:13 🤣 🤣 🤣
transform element v3 video please
YEAHHH!!!
I must have got lucky mine has no issues at all
Tis the KO game we play ^_^
Did you buy any other MP36 as well?
Bots and Bits no yet dude but I might pick up the it version if I can find one cheap enough
The Magten might be worth while. Very different paint job. But I haven't heard much in hand info about it.
i thought you hadn't uploaded in months, turns out youtube unsubscribed me from you
Ouch that sucks. I saw a sharp decline in subscriber count a couple of weeks ago, thought I'd done something offensive lol.
God I hate it when that happens, what the hell;'s up with that?
HashbrownMashup UA-cam being UA-cam.
YT periodically removes Subs it considers fake or spam :(
