I can't say newage has sparked a lot of wants for me, but as someone who has recently decided to go in on a different legends line (Iron Factory samurai) I feel the pain in the wallet these little things cause
Agamemnon proved, once and for all, that, no matter the scale, you can absolutely turn a guy into a gun and not make the person transforming it want to use it by the end of it. This guy outclasses the masterpiece in that regard.
I feel like a perfect "Two birds, one stone" release for Hasbro would be releasing a comic-book-color Megatron named Megaplex. He was always "The blue Megatron", and the comics did have a clone subplot as illustrated by the box art.
I'm pretty sure that alternative face is literally a 1:1 to the Masterpiece version. Shows just how well crafted this little guy is and just how nuts Newage is when it ces to detail
i always loved the tiny solid toys,the wfc triolgy core class toys and the newage toys is a perfect exemple for that,i do like the marvel comics color schemes so this toy is good for me
I have the original toon colors of Aggy and he's a solid little fella. Apparently the Marvel colors include one fewer face though, which is a shame. Didn't the toy variant of David include an extra face for him?
Hey Gav, good (?) news! I found your Channel just the other day, and you've already become my second favourite Transformers reviewer! (Yeah, second place. You're good, but you're no Thew. 😆)
Dude, I have this! But transforming it is a pain since it's kinda small. Plus my copy's head tends to lean on an angle. As a bonus, all the other stuff it comes with are in storage. But still, I love this figure!
All of these tiny Newage figures look excellent, but DAMN, that Straxus is perfection. There aren't many figures of him, much less ones that look straight out of a Marvel book.
I gotta wonder what toys could hold that gun mode and make it look right. There's gotta be some cityformer out there who could get their fingers around it.
While I'm not really a Newage fan, finding their stuff just a wee bit fiddly for the size, it has to be said that, that Megatron is fuckin' gorgeous!! Love how they went with those comic colours and the box art too! I'm all the more envious as I'm currently trying to get my DX9 Shattered Glass Primes Legs to stop popping off. Gavin, you're basically cruising past me in a Porsche while my Morris Minor is broke down in a layby.
Transformation wise Newage's Megatron might be one of my favorite transformers, I just find it so satisfying and smooth. I absolutely adore Newage though so much I stopped buy even official stuff to only get Newage toys
Newage already got me for the cartoon and toy decos, so it's a good thing I don't have much nostalgia for the comics or I'd be even more broke than I already am. Their millions of Optimus and Magnus variants are gonna be the death of me though. Help.
Doesnt parts of that gun accesory work as a flight stand for the figure and thats why you get the plug? I cant remember because i have no need for it since its so small. Was a neat feat for the MP but aint got enough height to use it in me display case, aint got no room on my book shelf, thats my Soundwave/Acoustic wave kingdom
I hope you get yourself a Megatank Megatron eventually since it’s not only fucking massive and good fun, but solves your gripe with Megatrons over bloated accessory count
The day will come when I am successful enough that even in a country with a shit economy like my dear Mexico I will be able to buy stuff like this, but alas, it isn't that day yet.
@Jesse Mathis Gun control isn't "controlling people" buddy. Should probably get that profile pic changed too, the Confederate was a bunch of racist traitors.

Absolutely love the name choice here instead of the bajillionth time calling him a Tyrant

I’m shocked Hasbro hasn’t done a Marvel Comics deco for Selects yet when G2 Sandstorm exists.
I'm pretty sure that alternative face is literally a 1:1 to the Masterpiece version. Shows just how well crafted this little guy is and just how nuts Newage is when it ces to detail
I think newage has made the duality of naming characters in DnD, having the bad guy named “Agamemnon!” And the good guy being named “David”
i always loved the tiny solid toys,the wfc triolgy core class toys and the newage toys is a perfect exemple for that,i do like the marvel comics color schemes so this toy is good for me
Every wee robot should come with an optional big smiling face. Look how happy he looks!
I'm all in on Newage, having all of their standard G1 releases. They're so well made and tons of fun.
I think this the most enthusiasm ever shown at the end of a TRDQ
Uploaded 9 minutes ago? Last time I came this early, I had to apologise to ya Mum.

Marvel Decos are so underrated toy-rep wise.

“Guns ARE horseshit, but this is Megatron!”
My thoughts exactly 😌
Hahahaha this is Megatron!
@@Getloose360 Megatron, is that you?
@@Cdr2002 HERE'S A HINT!
@@talljoke *crumbles to dust*
Yes because talking down guns while reviewing property that you don't have the legal rights to defend is just awesome
I got the Pistolonyx black version. Just as a premium convention souvenir which was close to my living area at the time, really.

Trying to sneak up on me posting in the middle of the day. Too bad I’m off today. God I’m so nostalgic for those colours

Channeled your inner Shrek at the bit in the end
Mate, that orange plug line was legendary hahahaha
Transformation wise Newage's Megatron might be one of my favorite transformers, I just find it so satisfying and smooth. I absolutely adore Newage though so much I stopped buy even official stuff to only get Newage toys
But I _do_ display the original toy with the extensions in standing cannon mode!
I love megatrons that come with big smiling faces. It makes my brain hear that big horrible Seizō Katō laugh the MP36 toy does
1:38 dang, the toy just kinda disappeared from frame for a few seconds there

i like my soundwave and him being small. i think they did a ufo? but you are right I LOOOOOVE IT!

In short, regardless if you a fan of Marvel comics, or Legends class figures... You gonna have FUN with this little Tyrant 😁.
At this point there's more energon maces in the world than megatron toys.
does anyone know how to spell the noise transformers make when changing?
I dont know If it's just me but this video seems to have no sound
There's sound now, I'm not sure what it was
Hmmm definitely getting sound here.
@@TRDQ I waited around 10 minutes and now it works
@@TRDQ I got sound but it had this kinda fuzzy effect like it was recorded in an echoey space
Maybe your phone's speakers were having a time
I think I might eventually grab a Soundwave from the Newage line for my collection. Have you had any experience with them/would you recommend them?
New age David is one I’m always eying, I do not need another Optimus Prime but it looks so cool and neat?
I hope you get yourself a Megatank Megatron eventually since it’s not only fucking massive and good fun, but solves your gripe with Megatrons over bloated accessory count
By crushing them to dust 'neath its mighty treads?
2:44 Please tell me there was a pillow on that floor...
Those newage optimus' colors to me looks like transformers versions of Scorpion, Sub Zero, Ermac, and Noob Saibot
I wasn't aware that Newage had done a Megatron in that scale. Now I'm upset that I missed it.
Odd the video doesn’t respond
I did what you said with key to victor sigma....im in A and E now.
wait a damn second did he make a gundam reference?
Is the Newage Straxus any good? I've been kinda debating getting him. He looks cool
He is! Best incarnation of the lad yet
@@TRDQ oh good. I've heard the transformation is a bit of a chore but likely I'd keep him in bot mode anyways. Thanks!
am I crazy or did you have a fans hobby athena video that’s disappeared within the last few hours?
I think it's part of one of my 'end of year' videos?
thanks that was it. I just thought youtube was pulling a youtube.
They made prime in the three "prime"ary colours
0:44 😆😅🤣😂
Presumably his nemesis is Optimus Priam!
The ultimate irony would be if DC ends up making Transformers comics.
Need that newage toxitron asap
Why did Hasbro change megatrons Alt mode to a tank or jet
I prefer that tbh
They changed because of strict toy gun laws and kids getting shot playing with G1 Megatron
Why can't I hear anything?
Sound seems fixed now?
@@TRDQ let's find out ^^
@@TRDQ yes, yes it is
Looks like a fun little tyrant
0:06 Truth!
The day will come when I am successful enough that even in a country with a shit economy like my dear Mexico I will be able to buy stuff like this, but alas, it isn't that day yet.
Thermometer lane 🤣
2:17
Triggered American coming in 3…2…1…
I’m an American and I wish we had more people who thought guns were horseshit
@Jesse Mathis tell your fellow gun fetishists and right wingers to stop murdering fucking children and we’ll leave you alone.
@Jesse Mathis Gun control isn't "controlling people" buddy. Should probably get that profile pic changed too, the Confederate was a bunch of racist traitors.
@Jesse Mathis Oh my god, you even have the confederate flag in your profile pic, the full package 🤣
Can’t believe you didn’t show the Toy Megs face that came with David. Unsubscribed, disliked and reported
Odd the video doesn’t respond
Give it another go
@@TRDQ ok now it works
