Yeah, I love Impactor. I have him with his Powerdasher parts and holding Storm Cloud and Visper as a sword and he’s a beast. Like a gladiator. I’ll definitely be getting this kit.
For anyone who doesnt like how their slightly different colours, think of it this way; in WFC and FOC, the autobots and decepticons have little inner parts of their bodies that glow with energon or some other energy, even their autobot and decepticon insignias glow, this is just said energy glowing and making it lighter. Thats my headcanon.
Ah, we learn new things about Emgo all the time. This time we're learned that he likes his butter "squozen". Makes me wonder what other food he likes that way.
The only thing this kit does effect is when using the purple side leg attachments when in tank mode you will no longer be able to swivel the tank turret °360 any longer. The purple leg pieces get in the way of turning at all. Just FYI if that is something you like it to do, if not its a solid kit.
I’ve got this kit coming to me from TF Safari (eventually) and I was wondering if the leg attachments on the side block the tank turret swivel? I didn’t see mention of this in the video. Thanks!
Tempted to get this, really fixes those legs! Re the color matching, I'd be tempted to paint the leg inserts silver to really make them stand out if it can't match. They really seem to have upped their game on the fit on this one compared to some of the other videos I've seen of yours on other kits. Great job!
Just got mine and wow what a difference. He was already a great mold, and this just takes it up a notch. I could have done without the cannon or purple thigh panels, but ... hey. Where'd the cannon go? I just took it off, it should be here somewhere... Anyway, I have the Decepticon version, and the thigh panels and cannon change could be enough difference to justify buying the Autobot version as a separate character if I can get him cheap somewhere. So thanks for the recommend. Money well spent.
I like that the color is off as it give him some more color in the legs it's kinda cool. If the yellow in the lag parts where a bit more yellow it would match the front leg. How ever it looks great as is. Watching the fillers you get let's me see them b4 I get them and see if I need to change it up a bit or fix things or glue them. Oh lastly if it looks good. Keep up the good work love all that you do and keep up the funny man and mascot make my days better.
I have the Netflix repaint of Impactor, and the yellow pieces at the very least look like they'd be dark enough to blend better with the legs of that version. Might look into this upgrade kit.
I dig these third party upgrade parts. It reminds me of the good old days when third party companies were first becoming a thing, and releasing custom heads, weapons and other pieces for c.h.u.g. Transformers.
Other than preventing the turret from rotating, I think it's a nice upgrade. Only other thing I would've liked is an included replacement head for the IDW style like the 3pk version.
Not a bad kit from what is shown and with the parts not matching up it just adds more detail to the figure itself so it really did make a great impact for it heh heh....
So I haven't seen this IRL, but the slight color discrepancy doesn't bother me; it seems like it adds a little bit a detail to the figure if you ask me. A Transformer wouldn't be molded from one piece and only use one material anyway, so there being slight variation is fine in my book
You know, a few years ago you really weren’t my type of reviewer, and I would say rude things in the comments and you actually replied. Now I realize that you’re actually pretty cool, and I feel bad for being rude before. I would like to apologize to you Emgo, and let you know you’re a very great reviewer (but you know that by know) and you definitely deserve the spot you hold in this community.
I'd love this kit, but suspect it's extremely cost prohibitive for those of us not in the US. That said, the old cannon looks more faithful than the replacement for Marvel UK Impactor, while the replacement looks better for the IDW version of the character (which was the alt head version in the Amazon exclusive two-pack). In a perfect world, I'd get two of these and put the new cannon on the IDW version and leave the original one with his cannon as-is.
I really love that 3rd party companies are fixing the gaps in the toys now so people who complain about it can fix the things they hate about the toy aka the gaps
Nearly bought it immediately after watching the video. However just discovered TF Safari doesn't shop to my country and it's not on Ebay or Amazon... Damn.
So uhhhmmm... they have gap fillers that neuter two of the 5mm ports on the back, leg additions that neuter the two side ports as well as preventing the turret from rotating, but didn't think it was worthwhile to throw in an IDWish head? Weird.

The WFC series is clearly gonna help send some upgrade kit maker's kids through college, lol
Lol indeed lol indeed
I've seen that episode of The Simpsons too.
His cannon is the terror that flaps in the night!
Devin Gates When theres trouble you call DW! DarkWing Duck!
His cannon is the chill that runs up your spine!
They need to make 3rd Party Bloosh pieces.
Emgo316 didn't give this a ❤ :(
So true
Yes
Bloooooosh!
There are
Impactor was already one of my favorites from the line despite the gaps. So this, this just takes an awesome figure and makes it better.
Hell yeah! The gaps didn’t bother me, either and this kit is gonna be amazing!
Eh. I personally prefer the original cannon
Yeah, I love Impactor. I have him with his Powerdasher parts and holding Storm Cloud and Visper as a sword and he’s a beast. Like a gladiator. I’ll definitely be getting this kit.
That's not a duck, that's PERRY THE PURPLE PLATYPUS!
Darkwing Platypus
It's Perry the platypus as a targetmaster
Needs a fedora
Platypus don't do much you know!
Perry! Do be do be do ba do
The upgrade canon is meant to look like the idw impactor, more for the decepticon impactor mold in the 3 pack
For anyone who doesnt like how their slightly different colours, think of it this way; in WFC and FOC, the autobots and decepticons have little inner parts of their bodies that glow with energon or some other energy, even their autobot and decepticon insignias glow, this is just said energy glowing and making it lighter.
Thats my headcanon.
yeah the energy’s just pulsing under the metal
I’ve never noticed that Emgo uses background music it’s so relaxing also it looks more like a Platypus
I’ve been watching his videos for years and only just now noticed the music myself. It is relaxing for sure!
the "and now" at 4:15 sounded like he was using a faulty auto tune
Lol
Yay, the upgrade kit I’ve been eyeing looks as good as I hoped. Now to get Fan Vote Impactor for his great headsculpt
The added detail is the best part of this kit. They really did a great job with the modeling, and the print quality looks awesome.
I didn’t get this toy because there are so many gaps with this toy. Well, time to get a impactor now
This kit surely have an "impact" on Impactor. 😁
looks like a Duck Launcher...there said it
Launchpad McPactor
@@Canoby yup thats true
I flip up the spear gun in tank mode, and make it a radio antenna. :D
That's not a bad idea
@@TyphonMar Thank you. :D

Anyone else expecting emgo to say "That's not a niiice, THIS is a niiice."
I friggin love these upgrade kit videos, and I don’t know why.
awesome video
Now he can quote Bender and say "Kiss my Shiny Metal *EXPLOSION*"
It doesn’t look like a duck, it looks like a platypus
awesome content

I've considered getting this kit so I'm glad there is a video for it
The legs are what need the fillers the most, but the other small space fillers are nice too.

I need 2 of that kit to fix both my Siege Impactors, great vid always Em
This is one of the best looking upgrades I've seen. Problem is once I upgrade one figure I'm going to have to do them all.

I don't own this figure or plan to, but it's always satisfying watching those gaps being filled. NOOOOOOIIIIIICCCCEE.....
This entire video could be subtitled with "Happy Em-Go Noises" and still be 100% accurate.
true
@@emgo316 Yo, lad
@@emgo316 What's up?
BIG IMPROVEMENT
Get the TFSafari hip extension for Siege Prowl/Smokescreen/Bluestreak/Barricade!!! It makes the figures better proportioned!
those I don't care for.
Gotta say I don't actually mind when the gap fillers aren't spot on, it can (though doesn't always) give a nice two tone appearance.
Can't wait to get Impactor and this add on.
Mike Rossin yea
Wow! I didn't know Bruce Campbell was a guest reviewer? NNNNICE!
Wow the kit widens the vehicle quite a bit. I always had an issue with the tank mode being too narrow. This makes it much more appealing.
Gonna need this upgrade kit badly.
Wow looks amazing EmGo!!! Me like it Alot!!!!💯🎯👊🏽
Throughout this video, Emgo has been vocally changing between himself, an Aussie, and African American, and an autotuned machine.
This was, dare I say, NICE!
Everbody else: the leg gaps are outrages and a crime against humanity
Me: It's weapon storage in vehicle mode
Man I wish a 3rd party did the Ida head for those who couldn’t get the 3 pack
With great Bloosh.,comes great Noice
The corner of that room is just those brown boxes 😂
Not a fan of the figure but what a comprehensive add on kit. Makes him look very nice
Duck shoulder cannon
I think a predator would be proud
This is my 1st time back in 3 years man i missed him
i love this. all thats missing is the idw head.

appreciate it :)
Noiceeeee
emgo316 I love you dude
I always liked this toy till I saw the gaps. Then this came along and resolved my problem
Every figure has gaps
I hope spinister gets some gap fillers
Halite G I’m hoping for Astrotrain
OK, Jake Peralta, Prince of Space, and Coffee talk. Did I miss any references?
1:15 QUACK QUACK
I kind of like that the color matching is off. Breaks up profile a bit more, and to me reminds me of parts added in or removed during an overhaul.
We are og fans of emgo

Just got this kit. You do lose the ability to turn the turret in tank mode, but it still looks really good. :-)
I really love that 3rd party companies are fixing the gaps in the toys now so people who complain about it can fix the things they hate about the toy aka the gaps
i like it too but it should just come with out the gaps so you dont have to pay extra for something that shouldve been standard
How was your experience with TFsafari? I was thinking about ordering this
Nearly bought it immediately after watching the video. However just discovered TF Safari doesn't shop to my country and it's not on Ebay or Amazon... Damn.
the weird brown boxes have returned!
Boi I hope impacter doesn't die in the serie
The loose piece gets a yabba-dabba-glue?
So uhhhmmm... they have gap fillers that neuter two of the 5mm ports on the back, leg additions that neuter the two side ports as well as preventing the turret from rotating, but didn't think it was worthwhile to throw in an IDWish head? Weird.
Just think, now you can go pew pew, quack, quack, pew pew, quack quack.?
MAGNIFICENT!!!!!!!!!!!
Do you use the unremarkable boxes like this to do some stands or props for figures on display, or just throw them into the garbage?
4:14 - 4:17 Listen to that voice.
HE’S GOT PIPES
did NOT notice that. Thank you DRAGON_STORM_4
aNd nOoOw
Mascot needs an upgrade kit
Im surprised his blaster got no filler parts for it’s rather large gaps too
Would love to get this mostly because I got a cheap Impactor with no shoulder cannon but TFsafari doesnt ship to my country.
Dang this was a decent kit!!
I just found out that the guy at the begging of your videos is a lego bionicle glatorian
The outer leg pieces look good, but it looks like they nerf the turret rotation.
Also hasbro NEEDS to do Brawl for Earthrise. In fact maybe they can do ALL the combatacons
@Carlo M you think i don't know that?!
How did those shoulder blades look at all right to you?
I don't need upgrade kits for my Transformers. I'm a crafter! I customize!
😆🎨✂📐🔪🔧🔨💡😆
..except for Authentics...I need a few. Lol
Time to get a second Impactor
Yellow and purple go *quack quack*
hopefully they will be soon i really want to see them
Emgo always gets all the cool shit!
Nice,nice,NOICE
I was gonna get impactor then decided to get springer worst mistake ever I really regret it
Da new shoulder cannon looks like a duck bill
Ooooo Transformer this nice
Do the leg pieces hamper the turret as badly as it looks like they do?
I know the box contents! IT'S THE BOXED SET OF BOKU NO PICO!
I saw him in stores once but couldn't
Get it because I didn't have the money to at the time, I haven't seen him anywhere since then 😭
Hey emgo, do u plan to get the fan vote 3 pack? Decepticon impactor, holo-mirage and um...... The power Dasher who I don't remember the name
nope
