Fun fact: the original Beast Wars Inferno was a shelf warmer. I attribute this to it being a Mega class (the biggest size at the time) when Optimus and Megatron were right there. If a kid's going to save up for a Mega class, they're going to go for one of the leaders. So the fact you never found an Inferno again might be a sign you've always been cursed.
The leaders were Ultras, the next size up from Mega. Most likely it was because he shipped in a solid case where every figure in the case was Inferno, meaning stores had more of him than the other figures, leading to there being a ton of them still on the shelf even after everyone who wanted one already had theirs. Perspective must have grown up in an area where the stock manager knew what they were doing and realized that they would overstock Inferno if they ordered too many cases of him.

I have never believed that Rumor. 1 Inferno was one of the stand outs of the show, and was one of the show characters period. How much worse figures than this who weren't of characters in the show could have sold while this stayed makes no sense. and 2, my family tried SO HARD to find one of these because he was my favorite at the time. It wasn't like we were waiting around hoping to just run into one at the same store. We were actively hunting him at all the stores in my area for months to replace the one I returned.
I gotta say it is really fun and interesting hearing about your childhood stories. I think we've all had moments like that where we're kicking ourselves in the foot over decisions that really quickly turned out to be bad ones.
I'm so glad that part of my channel isn't off-putting for people. I've always wanted to tell those stories as part of the channel, and it's gratifying that it works out.
Seeing the original Inferno here was a pleasant surprise. I haven’t had a chance to go toy hunting in months due to work but I’m itching to get my hands on a Legacy Inferno. That screaming mouth is just… So perfect.
Home Alone? Don't you mean Honey I Shrunk the Kids? Anyway, I havent managed to get a hold of Legacy Inferno just yet, but I do still have my childhood BW Inferno, but that poor thing is barely holding together. I have to keep the robot head on with sticky tac because the ball joint port for it broke. Still was a fave and I'm looking forward to the new version
I love that weird arm transformation. It's memorable, it's unusual, everything clicks in satisfyingly (also I love when the bot hands are used to secure something in alt-mode), and it gives the ant mode a *depth* that bug modes often struggle with.

Why did I stop playing with it? Again, my dumb kid brain was convince that I had broken it so, to save myself the heartache, I simply stopped transforming it. When I was "reunited" with it, gold plastic syndrome finally catches up to it and I cremated it, lol.
Man I can't find anything in Transformers going by Wildburst except for a Fanart. Ahh... Now I understand why I can't find pictures of this thing. I'm sure opening up that Backpack was like a Gift to your self from the past. I have dreams like that all the time.
I knew what you meant with the anty joke, but I think this is one of those times when I feel messing up the joke is more hilarious than getting it done right.
Excellent channel! I really appreciate the critical view of the figures. As someone who likes to collect only figures that are worth the money, this is great info for me 👍👍 keep it up!
-Cool, you got the original Beast Wars Inferno toy. Now onto the Legacy Predacon Inferno. It's fire. Love his coloration, molded and sculpted design. Looking so much like the BW show. Like how he has an opening jaw. The thruster to be his blaster weapon, is fine with me. Sure, having his single barrel flamethrower blaster from the show would be cool. But I honestly just like the four-barreled thruster blaster more as the weapon. It means he has four times the flame power to show his enemies that he doesn't rock and roll, he burns. While the ant abdomen propeller panels can just fly without it. And the fire ant mode is cool. Looking forward to Hasbro repainting him as Antagony.
But does he need to waste 4 times the energy, it's not like you can light someone on Four Times the fire. There is kind of a Limit to how much Napalm you can coat someone in. And it means he can't fly and shoot at the same time.
I am so impressed with the posing on the Legacy Inferno. It really does feel like an MP figure. Some 3rd parties have been upscaling these CHUG figures to MP size as stand in for MP figures. This Inferno could be a good substitute.
Gotta say, this is one of the best transformers imo, best mainline voyager for sure. This figure feels like such a product of love. Thanks for the review perspectiveend
Legacy Inferno's been an absolute joy to handle. I think of all the Beast formers that have gotten updates, he's probably in the top 3 along with Tarantulas and T Rex Megatron. As for Dragon Megatron, I hear he's *incredibly* well done - the only downer is that his face is incredibly inaccurate (Though DNA Design is releasing an upgrade kit to fix his face).
I like to imagine Cybershark and Inferno share A linked spark like Topspin and Twintwist in IDW. I mean, they both have red eyes, sharp teeth, and their beast heads fold into the torso (with the ability to fire missiles). Also, Antie isn't from Home Alone, he's from Honey, I shrunk the kids.
I know, I miss spoke in the video. I said Honey I Shrunk the Kids in the Best of Year video. But Cybershark is a Maximal, though I guess they are both technically.
@@PerspectiveEnd Yes Cybershark is a maximal, but my head cannon was the reprogramming only worked on Inferno due to a malfunction with the pod upon impact, so Cybershark ended up a Maximal instead (vicious killing method is included).
Epic review PerspectiveEnd!!! Inferno has been one of my favorite figures of the Legacy line, and you showing how much it rivals the original BW figure in terms of show accuracy, articulation, and overall quality, makes me proud to say: "For the royalty! INFERNO TERRORIZE!" lol :D Sorry to hear you had a nightmare of an experience with BW Inferno in the past. Keep on being amazing.
@@PerspectiveEnd You're welcome. This is a very fulfilling review. I confess that I was going to use the word hellish, instead of nightmarish, in my original comment as a bad joke to Inferno's name meaning hell in Latin and your past experience with the original BW figure was basically an inferno. lol
I have an idea for inferno and tons of other bugformers, you know the Coloney “antela” from cosmic rust. Well what it was ruled by bug themed autobots, possibly even including bumblebee, but airachnid and her group of cons took it over and him being reprogrammed by Blackanria tricked him into thinking he was her servent. Is that cool. (I know the only bug themed thing in the og episode was the heat ray this is a new version of it)
The Dragon Megatron qc (on my copy) was great! For a moment, I thought I actually had perfect qc. Until I was doing the transformation and I realized the shoulder joint was put on backwards : ) Fortunately, it was just screwed in, so it was easy to fix.
This was so AWESOME!!! I love this figure! By the The movie you are referring to is not Home Alone, It was "Honey I shrunk down the Kids". Funny You remembered that movie... That gave me so much nostalgia. 👍👍👍
That's a Mandela effect I believe. He often talked about burning people, but I think you are combining him and Tarantuals. Tarantulas talked about sending people to the Inferno. Inferno was more like "BURN Traitor Burn!"
I was so close to getting this and tarantulas for Christmas but turns out my little town is either filled with bw fans or riddled with scalpers because the two lines of them were gone within a day and a half, also good video and great for the royalty joke poor megatron
You know for your light piping problem, I looked at My legacy inferno, and all my fingers that use like pipeing, it turns out my piping absorbs sunlight more, then electrical light, it's weird but whenever I'm in my kitchen I turn the light. I was barely light up but when I turn them to the window a few meters away, the eyes POP! I think if you take all the figures that use light pipeing in your collection and turn them to a window, you'll see their eyes pop and it looks amazing.
See I had a lot of Lightpiping figures Growing up, and I never found that to be the Case. I've hated Lightpiping since I was little playing with my Original Waspinator in the sand out behind my house.
Finally got ahold of one. The final wave seems to have completely missed my area. Didn't realize it at the time, but he wound up shipping from the UK (normally $13+ for shipping, but some promo made if $0, so I didn't pay attention to why it would've been so expensive & counted the $7 markup as shipping - same as Gamer Optimus's shipping ended up being; also, I found Tarn & Lio Convoy for a few bucks under MSRP, so the mark up evens out, anyway). Ordered him (on Amazon), partly because HasbroPulse had him listed as discontinued & not being reissued (that notice seems to have disappeared; I noticed Legacy BW Megatron is getting a package refresh, when I was checking something about WfC Optimus). A lot bigger, than I was expecting. Gave him Siege Ultra Magnus's spare guns (the pre-tools for Cybertron Optimus), since he only comes with his flight booster. He can't laugh maniacally, as he flies, raining down fire, without guns. That ball for the neck joint almost seamlessly blends into his mouth. Only complaints are where are his flamethrowers, the leg kibble could've been handled better, & too bad that flight booster can't stay in the abdomen. Other than that, & his bug mode being too adorable, he might be flawless.
I live in the US. It isn't normal, but it isn't the first time. I got something else that also shipped from the UK, once before. I was on the US Amazon site, & they were just the cheapest listings, with free shipping. I don't watch TF reviews for recommendations. And I don't just watch one reviewer. Different reviewers hit on different aspects. I know what designs & characters I like & don't. I watch reviews for possible problems & to make sure they meet my minimum purchase criteria. Look, size, articulation & transformation are all important to me. Too limited, simple or out of scale, & it's likely a pass, unless there's an exception, like specific characters just having a simple transformation, as long as I like the character or design. Also, some of you reviewers are just entertaining, & I'll watch some reviews for figures I will never get, whether because it fails to meet my minimum standards, being inconvenient to buy (like some 3rd party stuff), or I can't justify the price.
Just got both Kingdom and Legacy Inferno at a collectible show today and I just love how there's a voyager Pred now amongst the sea of deluxe preds. The bug legs get in the way but not much of a knock against him. Kingdom is aight too, good companion piece to my siege Red Alert and easily the best of the Grapple/Hauler/Inferno mold.
Yeah, the Legacy one is great it's so much fun, and they legs are a frustration but not a deal breaker, as for the Kingdom one, yeah it's remarkably fun in comparison to his mold mates despite the lack of really any significant difference.
Just recently found Inferno at Target a couple of weekends ago, and I immediately snagged that sucker. I now only have Waspinator left to complete the Seaon 1 cast of Beast Wars (Maximals and Predacons). So, now that I have collected the characters going forward, I have to backtrack a bit. But, it'll also be worth it, because I've been collecting the Beast Wars characters since WFC Kingdom.
@@PerspectiveEnd LOL My guess for why Waspinator eluded me is because of his popularity as a character from the show that I guess he was always sold out whenever I checked. But, I've options of Ebay and BigBadToyStore. Been doing some research. Thanks for the luck though.
Wave 3 inferno should have had a giant blast effect with 4 ports to work with his weapon thruster thing Maybe even an adaptor to work with omega supreme
I got this guy on the day before my birthday (Last year, very late november.) I've been waiting for this video to come out since then and I'm very much glad to know you love this thing. He's probably one of the most poseable figures I have. I also got the Legacy version of Soundwave for Christmas. He's pretty fun, I don't hate the alt mode. Do you ever plan on doing a full review of the Seige mold? Since the Legacy figure is just that but without the battle damage resulting in a cleaner look (Which, to be honest, I actually kind of prefer.)
Man I could not find one that early, good for you. Yeah you had an early look into my reaction because there's no way I couldn't love this thing. Maybe one day, but there's so much for me to cover already I don't know.
I know a lot of characters had changes from the bios when they entered the show Cheetor was originally gonna be a jungle warrior, waspinator was gonna be an intemidator, and deapth charge was gonna be a strict commander. Did inferno have a character bio, if so was it changed
I'd say that Depthcharge is mostly what it said on the box. Inferno's character description was nothing of the sort. It just talked about how you might think he was slow being an ant, but he's actually really fast thanks to his butt turbine.
I actually have this figure, got it when I saw it at target because I am just starting a beast wars collection. His transformation is a little finicky and I need to use some force to get his arms in his chest, but I am not worried about him breaking. Also I keep his ant abdomen down instead of flowering out because it makes him look like he has a trench coat which I think looks cool.
Good luck on your Collection. I managed to get everyone so far and hope Hasbro continues and does season 2 and 3. Gotta have myself a modern Transmetal Megatron
@@erickawayne8593 as of now I have (in order of purchase) Legacy Tarantulas Legacy Inferno Buzzworthy Bumblebee Dinobot Kingdom Rhinox Kingdom Waspinator Netflix Rattrap and Optimus Primal Kingdom Megatron Then I have a Kingdom Blackarachnia on the way, and I gonna get Legacy nightprowler as a substitute for Cheetor(because regular Cheetor is expensive) and Legacy Sandstorm as a sub for scorpinok (because orange > grayish purple)
@@erickawayne8593 update I now have nightprowler and Sandstorm, Blackarachnia is supposed to arrive tomorrow, and I forgot to say I am planning on getting Buzzworthy terrosuar(because hes probably cheeper and has better colors)
I had noticed that alternate Configureation, and I just wish I'd remembered to mention it in the video. As for your collection, Nice! Beast wars figures are so much fun, and I hope you can get a well and complete one.
I know this ain’t relevant atm but apparently ROTB Wheeljack’s head might be different in the final movie; given that we know Arcee’s toy was based mainly on 2D art and earlier 3D asset files, which have likely been altered in the final film
Hi Perspective End. I took your recommendation, and preordered a Cangdao Metal Slug. When it arrived, it came with a QC issue. One gatling gun was missing a head :(
The Gatling gun was missing a head? While I'm not sure what that means I am sorry to hear that, have you contacted the store to get a replacement? It should be free. And do you otherwise like it?
@@PerspectiveEnd The front tip of one gatling gun was missing right out of box. They don't do 1-1 replacements, so parts have to be ordered from China. With the Chinese New Year, it will take more than a month. Well honestly, right now it's like asking if your pizza didn't have cockroaches running all over, would you come to love it? All I can see are the problems right now.
Rather surprising you couldn't find another BW Inferno back then as according to the TFWiki he was a shelfwarmer. Was able to get Legacy Inferno just in time before the Xmas rush, so now I have all the Season 1 BW cast. My only QC with him is the small abdomen propeller panel was loose, but managed to peg in okay in Beast and Robot mode, was just inbetween the transformation that got me worried at first.
Yeah, I don't believe that, like my family TRIED to find one, and couldn't. Hey congrats I completed my S1 cast too around the same time, so I'm super happy my self.
Finally got this guy, my only real criticism of him would be that the head could be flatter to look more like the cartoon, but i guess hasbro wanted the robot pyromaniac to be "realistic", and the fact that he cant close his propeller in robot mode when the engine is attached, but yeah, pretty excellent figure, i also found a papercraft of the quake 3 arena rocket launcher that fits surprisingly well and resembles his original gun
If you had to make a new incarnation of inferno in a comic, tv show, or movie. What would you change about him, I mean the only thing that might need to change is his backstory since that’s the only thing that shouldn’t be copy pasted. He already is an awesome character with a cool design
I feel like that should actually kind of stay the same. Like he's a dude that got damaged and took his mental cues off eusocial insects is a really interesting backstory. Obviously if this were in a Bay Film he'd just show up with no explanation and get no lines.
When I was younger I couldn’t pronounce my Rs so when they introduced inferno I called him infearno which I still call him to this day. I just think that name suits home more, and it differentiates him from G1 inferno. Just felt like sharing.
I think it's more fitting the way it is. One Inferno being a fighter fighter, and the other being a fighter using fire. It's better than the Skywarp thing considering NOT ONCE does Maximal Skywarp ever teleport. Even BW2 Starscream lives up to being a backstabber.
I think all the beast wars characters in legacy are the best of legacy, taranulas amazing deluxe, inferno amazing voyager and megatron amazing leader, waiting the review for megatron too!
Megatron is actually in stock on BBTS, so if you're still having a hard time finding him, I'd look there (unless you've found him since this video was recorded). I'm really hoping that you don't get a dud copy, because from my experience, his QC is the best of the wave.
Legacy Inferno is great. The only changes I'd make are add green, chrome eyes, no faux-forming, and the series' beast mode. Also, never expected the original toy to be reviewed. Due to it's colours and not having it in hand, I think the original beast wars figure tastes like strawberries.
I don’t hate light piping but it seams like such a gamble you might as well sell them two heads, one light piping and one chrome dyed or painted. Or just give us chrome dyes
The only legacy wave 3 figures I have are this and TM2 megatron. Both of which have either no qc problems or negligible ones. Both are fantastic figures.
Probably still very crazy, but he might be less aggressive. His obsessive loyalty was from him being an ant, is violence was from him being a Predacon.
Inferno’s the best example of how wave 3 could be good in Legacy, glad I decided to get him. Imagine if Hasbro pulled that “figure of the year” joke with this release similar to what they did with Kingdom Tigertron despite only being out for a month at that time!
I got the golden disk Tigatron the other day, and yeah in no way is that figure of the year material, it’s good, really good, but nah hasbro was bull-shitting with that result.
Woo-hoo! It's What's the Best Beast Wars Inferno! Since this is all of them Hasbro has ever made if you don't count transmetal Scavenger. The transmetal that was supposed to be Inferno but wasn't I guess...🤷
Sometimes I wonder why, in the same line, there are figures like this one who are simply the best representation of the design they want to be and then there are figures like Wild Rider, Breakdown and some of the repacks/repaints. Given all that, I also wonder if Legacy will re-release some of the figures from past toylines, for example siege Prime, BW megatron etc
In the case of the Legacy Stunticons, they are a special case. They had a separate budget, as a Combiner team, & are only releasing as part of Legacy for distribution, & probably to fill in spaces. Motormaster probably ate most of the budget, so the limb Cons wound up sharing 2 sets of engineering, & Hasbro didn't want to cut into their planned profit, so Breakdown wound up a bit short on tooling budget, & didn't get reshelled.
Some of it is just designers of different levels of talent. Some of it can be that figures are produced at different factories. But yeah it's infuriating that they can be this varied in quality.
Inferno is fantastic. I found one a week ago. My only issue with it is that his ant head doesn’t tab together properly in ant mode. It’s fine in robot mode so that’s all I care about
I think she'd probably be more like a nicer person who was also evil none the less, but was like afraid of fire. It could be like an Ironic and mean name.
i always had a what if idea on what if bw inferno had no queen aka no one to follow logically he would commit suicide but it could be interestig to see what inferno would do even if suicide would probably be a lot more logical
Oh hell, we are talking about the original too. Ok, I mostly agree with all you said. But let's go. Original: A childhood favorite of mine. But lord help you if you lose his missiles that make up his rear bug legs. And standing him in bug mode takes up a LOT of space and doesn't hold due to loose joints. Legacy: I've only grown to love this figure more since I got it. With two minor nitpicks. His robot hands are WAY to small. Inferno had hands almost as big as his head. I swear if a 3rd party makes new hands for him, I'm on board. And the robot mode has eight visible alt legs. Fake ant, 0/10. Tarantula clearly succeeded in making another arachnid.
@@PerspectiveEnd Yes those are missiles. they fit in the little grey gun. In robot mode, he has 2 sets hanging off his arms, 1 set from his hips, and 1 more set molded into his shins. I was joking about it ruining the figure though. It is the smallest nitpick I've probably ever mentioned in a Transformer.
Legacy Tarantulas: close to being on the best of year list
Legacy Inferno: “YOU’RE NO MATCH FOR ME, BURN TRAITOR BURN!”
Legacy inferno: "BURN IN HOLY FIREEEEEEE!!!!!"
Fitting that he murdered him in both instances.
@@PerspectiveEnd Honestly, I can't wait for a Masterpiece Beast Wars Inferno.
Fun fact: the original Beast Wars Inferno was a shelf warmer. I attribute this to it being a Mega class (the biggest size at the time) when Optimus and Megatron were right there. If a kid's going to save up for a Mega class, they're going to go for one of the leaders. So the fact you never found an Inferno again might be a sign you've always been cursed.
It's because he's an ant. The transmetal version also shelfwarmed. They even called it Scavenger in hopes it would sell. It did not.
The leaders were Ultras, the next size up from Mega. Most likely it was because he shipped in a solid case where every figure in the case was Inferno, meaning stores had more of him than the other figures, leading to there being a ton of them still on the shelf even after everyone who wanted one already had theirs. Perspective must have grown up in an area where the stock manager knew what they were doing and realized that they would overstock Inferno if they ordered too many cases of him.
Basic, deluxe, mega, ultra.

Now Megs had to live with two of them yelling "My queen!".
I think he'd be cool with it. Inferno was one of his favorite subordinates.

Speaking of childhood QC issues (this is going to be a yarn, so buckle up): I distinctly remembered having a Transformers figure of a character called Wildburst. It had similar coloring to Animated Prowl. I remember it having like clear wings and stuff, but I remember it transforming into a cyber-organic bike. I broke the clear plastic wings some time ago and I was weeping because that wing forms the sides of the bike and I never transformed it ever again. About 13 years ago, the damn toy went missing. I was grieving.
But then, I didcovered an Auldey toyline called Screechers Wild and the whole gimmick was that it's a transformer but it's based on animals like dragons and horses and what not and it flips! The toyline was almost identical to my beloved missing toy but I don't remember it transforming like that, it's very clearly a robot and the toyline seems to enter production around 2012 and I was a bit confused so I told my mom about the discovery, and my mom said, What on earth are you blabbering on about?
It turns out that I amalgamated the memory of my toy with a knock-off Lego "sculpture" that I made with a knock-off Transformers bike toy that my mom purchased me (it's one of those knock-offs that you purchase for 7 dollars). That toy was fabrication of my imagining a cool toy because I was saddled with some pretty shit toys.
Further clarification: I discovered the "Lego" toy with the clear plastic wings about 5 years ago when I was moving out to go on an internship. I thought the toys went missing but it turns out that I had simply forgotten that I had left them in my school bag filled with memories and goodies and rotten Twiggies (it's a rip off of Twinkies, and yes, I do live in Malaysia because Twiggies is a famous bread brand here). What I would usually do is that I would peg the clear plastic wings into the side of the bike and because it wasn't meant to take on that much punishment, it broke, shattered. Why did I stop playing with it? Again, my dumb kid brain was convince that I had broken it so, to save myself the heartache, I simply stopped transforming it. When I was "reunited" with it, gold plastic syndrome finally catches up to it and I cremated it, lol.
Man I can't find anything in Transformers going by Wildburst except for a Fanart.

I'm happy to hear that I'm able to help you out with my harsh takes.
I think the modern figure having not much tilt up makes sense since unlike other fliers his positions in the air wouldn’t require it
While yes he flies upright most typically, a lot of his most famous moments still had him looking almost directly up.
-Cool, you got the original Beast Wars Inferno toy.
Now onto the Legacy Predacon Inferno. It's fire. Love his coloration, molded and sculpted design. Looking so much like the BW show. Like how he has an opening jaw. The thruster to be his blaster weapon, is fine with me. Sure, having his single barrel flamethrower blaster from the show would be cool. But I honestly just like the four-barreled thruster blaster more as the weapon. It means he has four times the flame power to show his enemies that he doesn't rock and roll, he burns. While the ant abdomen propeller panels can just fly without it. And the fire ant mode is cool. Looking forward to Hasbro repainting him as Antagony.
But does he need to waste 4 times the energy, it's not like you can light someone on Four Times the fire. There is kind of a Limit to how much Napalm you can coat someone in.
And it means he can't fly and shoot at the same time.
I am so impressed with the posing on the Legacy Inferno. It really does feel like an MP figure. Some 3rd parties have been upscaling these CHUG figures to MP size as stand in for MP figures. This Inferno could be a good substitute.
I haven't seen a KO like that in a while, they are still doing it?
@@PerspectiveEnd Yup, they just oversized... Rhinox.
Gotta say, this is one of the best transformers imo, best mainline voyager for sure. This figure feels like such a product of love. Thanks for the review perspectiveend
I don't know that I'd say this is the best Voyager ever, but it is Up There.
9:20 Anty was from Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, not Home Alone. There was an arthropod in Home Alone, but it was a spider, not an ant.
I knew that damn it! I just misspoke and ruined the joke.
Aren't ants Arthropods?
@@PerspectiveEnd Yes, ants are arthropods.
Legacy Inferno's been an absolute joy to handle. I think of all the Beast formers that have gotten updates, he's probably in the top 3 along with Tarantulas and T Rex Megatron.
As for Dragon Megatron, I hear he's *incredibly* well done - the only downer is that his face is incredibly inaccurate (Though DNA Design is releasing an upgrade kit to fix his face).
Yeah I don't know what is up with his head, but yeah the Preds got all the best updates.
I like to imagine Cybershark and Inferno share A linked spark like Topspin and Twintwist in IDW. I mean, they both have red eyes, sharp teeth, and their beast heads fold into the torso (with the ability to fire missiles).
Also, Antie isn't from Home Alone, he's from Honey, I shrunk the kids.
I know, I miss spoke in the video. I said Honey I Shrunk the Kids in the Best of Year video.
But Cybershark is a Maximal, though I guess they are both technically.
@@PerspectiveEnd Yes Cybershark is a maximal, but my head cannon was the reprogramming only worked on Inferno due to a malfunction with the pod upon impact, so Cybershark ended up a Maximal instead (vicious killing method is included).
Epic review PerspectiveEnd!!! Inferno has been one of my favorite figures of the Legacy line, and you showing how much it rivals the original BW figure in terms of show accuracy, articulation, and overall quality, makes me proud to say: "For the royalty! INFERNO TERRORIZE!" lol :D Sorry to hear you had a nightmare of an experience with BW Inferno in the past. Keep on being amazing.
I wouldn't call it nightmarish, just in general sad. But thank you! I'm glad you found this so fulfilling of a video.
@@PerspectiveEnd You're welcome. This is a very fulfilling review. I confess that I was going to use the word hellish, instead of nightmarish, in my original comment as a bad joke to Inferno's name meaning hell in Latin and your past experience with the original BW figure was basically an inferno. lol
I'm glad I found this guy early and it was really good QC, otherwise after seeing the previous wave 3 blunders I'd have been terrified
Yeah, I was sitting there for months looking for this with my ass clenched prepared for it to suck.
@@PerspectiveEnd I still haven't found Dragon Megatron either
I have an idea for inferno and tons of other bugformers, you know the Coloney “antela” from cosmic rust. Well what it was ruled by bug themed autobots, possibly even including bumblebee, but airachnid and her group of cons took it over and him being reprogrammed by Blackanria tricked him into thinking he was her servent. Is that cool. (I know the only bug themed thing in the og episode was the heat ray this is a new version of it)
That is an interesting story yeah. I can totally see that being done officially.
The Dragon Megatron qc (on my copy) was great! For a moment, I thought I actually had perfect qc.
Until I was doing the transformation and I realized the shoulder joint was put on backwards : )
Fortunately, it was just screwed in, so it was easy to fix.
I've heard someone else complain about this, so it's good that's it's fixeable if it's at least a little wide spread.
Inferno was also one of the few I never had, and this fills a huge hole in my heart.
It's a good fit for that hole.
This was so AWESOME!!! I love this figure! By the The movie you are referring to is not Home Alone, It was "Honey I shrunk down the Kids". Funny You remembered that movie... That gave me so much nostalgia. 👍👍👍
Did I say Home Alone? Am I stupid?
I just realized, this mold would be a perfect retool for a animated waspinator
i remeber in the show that inferno would say "you will burn in the flames of inferno!" but i cant find a clip of him saying it
That's a Mandela effect I believe. He often talked about burning people, but I think you are combining him and Tarantuals.
Tarantulas talked about sending people to the Inferno. Inferno was more like "BURN Traitor Burn!"
I can't wait for the megatron review, hopefully you can find it!
I can't wait to do it. Super excited for it to be good as I hear.
The Legacy one such a great figure for the Royalty! 🔥🐜
And i prefer legacy's one beast mode because cool and cute
This Fire Ant is Fire.
Yeah I get why you would prefer the cute ant.
I was so close to getting this and tarantulas for Christmas but turns out my little town is either filled with bw fans or riddled with scalpers because the two lines of them were gone within a day and a half, also good video and great for the royalty joke poor megatron
I'm sorry to hear that that sucks. Have you tried finding it online?
And thank you very much!
Yeah they wouldn’t arrive until like February last time I checked sucks a lot
The coolest part about Legacy Inferno is that his mouth moves XD
Yeah it's so cool, and such an important move for the character.
You know for your light piping problem, I looked at My legacy inferno, and all my fingers that use like pipeing, it turns out my piping absorbs sunlight more, then electrical light, it's weird but whenever I'm in my kitchen I turn the light. I was barely light up but when I turn them to the window a few meters away, the eyes POP! I think if you take all the figures that use light pipeing in your collection and turn them to a window, you'll see their eyes pop and it looks amazing.
See I had a lot of Lightpiping figures Growing up, and I never found that to be the Case. I've hated Lightpiping since I was little playing with my Original Waspinator in the sand out behind my house.
Finally got ahold of one. The final wave seems to have completely missed my area. Didn't realize it at the time, but he wound up shipping from the UK (normally $13+ for shipping, but some promo made if $0, so I didn't pay attention to why it would've been so expensive & counted the $7 markup as shipping - same as Gamer Optimus's shipping ended up being; also, I found Tarn & Lio Convoy for a few bucks under MSRP, so the mark up evens out, anyway). Ordered him (on Amazon), partly because HasbroPulse had him listed as discontinued & not being reissued (that notice seems to have disappeared; I noticed Legacy BW Megatron is getting a package refresh, when I was checking something about WfC Optimus).
A lot bigger, than I was expecting. Gave him Siege Ultra Magnus's spare guns (the pre-tools for Cybertron Optimus), since he only comes with his flight booster. He can't laugh maniacally, as he flies, raining down fire, without guns. That ball for the neck joint almost seamlessly blends into his mouth.
Only complaints are where are his flamethrowers, the leg kibble could've been handled better, & too bad that flight booster can't stay in the abdomen. Other than that, & his bug mode being too adorable, he might be flawless.
It shipped to you from the UK. Is that normal where you live?
I'm glad to hear I didn't steer you wrong on this guy. He's Excellent, so much fun.
I live in the US. It isn't normal, but it isn't the first time. I got something else that also shipped from the UK, once before. I was on the US Amazon site, & they were just the cheapest listings, with free shipping.
I don't watch TF reviews for recommendations. And I don't just watch one reviewer. Different reviewers hit on different aspects. I know what designs & characters I like & don't. I watch reviews for possible problems & to make sure they meet my minimum purchase criteria. Look, size, articulation & transformation are all important to me. Too limited, simple or out of scale, & it's likely a pass, unless there's an exception, like specific characters just having a simple transformation, as long as I like the character or design.
Also, some of you reviewers are just entertaining, & I'll watch some reviews for figures I will never get, whether because it fails to meet my minimum standards, being inconvenient to buy (like some 3rd party stuff), or I can't justify the price.
Just got both Kingdom and Legacy Inferno at a collectible show today and I just love how there's a voyager Pred now amongst the sea of deluxe preds. The bug legs get in the way but not much of a knock against him. Kingdom is aight too, good companion piece to my siege Red Alert and easily the best of the Grapple/Hauler/Inferno mold.
Yeah, the Legacy one is great it's so much fun, and they legs are a frustration but not a deal breaker, as for the Kingdom one, yeah it's remarkably fun in comparison to his mold mates despite the lack of really any significant difference.
Just recently found Inferno at Target a couple of weekends ago, and I immediately snagged that sucker. I now only have Waspinator left to complete the Seaon 1 cast of Beast Wars (Maximals and Predacons). So, now that I have collected the characters going forward, I have to backtrack a bit. But, it'll also be worth it, because I've been collecting the Beast Wars characters since WFC Kingdom.
Man, how has Waspinator eluded you so.
Good luck locating one.
@@PerspectiveEnd LOL My guess for why Waspinator eluded me is because of his popularity as a character from the show that I guess he was always sold out whenever I checked. But, I've options of Ebay and BigBadToyStore. Been doing some research. Thanks for the luck though.
Wave 3 inferno should have had a giant blast effect with 4 ports to work with his weapon thruster thing
Maybe even an adaptor to work with omega supreme
I mean this is already pretty good, so I don't think that would be necessary, but it would have been sure cool.
Definitely looking forward to getting the Legacy Inferno figure to stand next to my Legacy Transmetal 2 Megatron.
Definitely looking forward to getting a Transmetal 2 Megatron to stand next to my Inferno.
The perfect figure for THE ROYALTY! He will look great next to his queen and the rest of the colony!
Indeed he does. I have them displayed together, and it makes me so happy.
Having to put a light behind a figure for the light piping isn’t so bad for me, as I really like the glowing eyes+rimlighting combo
The figure was in a lightbox for the whole video. It's surrounded by light.
@@PerspectiveEnd I know, I’m talking about the light piping alongside very little light outside of the rimlighting
I’m so hyped for mine to come in. FOR THE ROYALTY!
I expect that you will love it when you get it.
Supposedly the original inferno was a shelf warmer so finding only on defective version is one of the unlckyiest thing that can happen.
I don't know if I believe those rumors, considering how hard we worked to find one, and never could.
If an auotbot inferno and predacon inferno appeared in the same show, who would be renamed and what would they be renamed to
I think it would probably be the Autobot, because Inferno is an Agressive name.
I got this guy on the day before my birthday (Last year, very late november.)
I've been waiting for this video to come out since then and I'm very much glad to know you love this thing. He's probably one of the most poseable figures I have.
I also got the Legacy version of Soundwave for Christmas. He's pretty fun, I don't hate the alt mode. Do you ever plan on doing a full review of the Seige mold? Since the Legacy figure is just that but without the battle damage resulting in a cleaner look (Which, to be honest, I actually kind of prefer.)
Man I could not find one that early, good for you.
Yeah you had an early look into my reaction because there's no way I couldn't love this thing.
Maybe one day, but there's so much for me to cover already I don't know.
I know a lot of characters had changes from the bios when they entered the show
Cheetor was originally gonna be a jungle warrior, waspinator was gonna be an intemidator, and deapth charge was gonna be a strict commander. Did inferno have a character bio, if so was it changed
I'd say that Depthcharge is mostly what it said on the box.
Inferno's character description was nothing of the sort. It just talked about how you might think he was slow being an ant, but he's actually really fast thanks to his butt turbine.
Hey perspective, do you have the MMC Navigant already? And do you plan on making a review on it? I don't usually ask for reviews but I'm just curious
Yes and yes, but I've just been busy recently, and I've toned down the number of videos I do a week to not die.
@@PerspectiveEnd nice, please don't overwork yourself
“Fool pain is my friend allow me to introduce you to it”
That may be my favorite quote of his.
I actually have this figure, got it when I saw it at target because I am just starting a beast wars collection. His transformation is a little finicky and I need to use some force to get his arms in his chest, but I am not worried about him breaking. Also I keep his ant abdomen down instead of flowering out because it makes him look like he has a trench coat which I think looks cool.
Good luck on your Collection. I managed to get everyone so far and hope Hasbro continues and does season 2 and 3. Gotta have myself a modern Transmetal Megatron
@@erickawayne8593 as of now I have (in order of purchase)
Legacy Tarantulas
Legacy Inferno
Buzzworthy Bumblebee Dinobot
Kingdom Rhinox
Kingdom Waspinator
Netflix Rattrap and Optimus Primal
Kingdom Megatron
Then I have a Kingdom Blackarachnia on the way, and I gonna get Legacy nightprowler as a substitute for Cheetor(because regular Cheetor is expensive) and Legacy Sandstorm as a sub for scorpinok (because orange > grayish purple)
@@erickawayne8593 update
I now have nightprowler and Sandstorm, Blackarachnia is supposed to arrive tomorrow, and I forgot to say I am planning on getting Buzzworthy terrosuar(because hes probably cheeper and has better colors)
I had noticed that alternate Configureation, and I just wish I'd remembered to mention it in the video.
As for your collection, Nice! Beast wars figures are so much fun, and I hope you can get a well and complete one.
I still have that OG Inferno and I LOVE it! I'm still trying to get the Legacy one, but man, do I love that terrifying bug!
I do too. He's so crazy awesome.
The royalty will be pleased
I am.
As the royalty commanded.
I did command this yes.
If they can do swappble faces and heads they could have had him have lightpiping and have the option for chrome dyes
That's an interesting idea, 2 heads with the differences being how the eyes are done.
You never found another BW Inferno? That’s strange. I heard it was a notorious shelf-warmer.
I've never believed that rumor.
Remember?
First Waspinator, then buzzsaw, and now inferno? Light piping man.
The bugs man.
It’s hard to believe that inferno was made from maximal parts
Yeah the Predacon Reprogramming doesn't explain that face.
“FOR THE EMPERAH!”
FOR THE ROYALTY!!!
This one looks great!
It's so good, and it's a worthy update that we've needed for a long time.
My Megatron's right arm came is assembled so I had to disassemble it and fix it so it can transform
That sucks. I'm sorry about that, but at least it's a Fixeable issue.
I know this ain’t relevant atm but apparently ROTB Wheeljack’s head might be different in the final movie; given that we know Arcee’s toy was based mainly on 2D art and earlier 3D asset files, which have likely been altered in the final film
Hopefully they Ugly Sonic him into something that doesn't look awful.
Hi Perspective End. I took your recommendation, and preordered a Cangdao Metal Slug. When it arrived, it came with a QC issue. One gatling gun was missing a head :(
The Gatling gun was missing a head?
While I'm not sure what that means I am sorry to hear that, have you contacted the store to get a replacement? It should be free.
And do you otherwise like it?
@@PerspectiveEnd The front tip of one gatling gun was missing right out of box. They don't do 1-1 replacements, so parts have to be ordered from China. With the Chinese New Year, it will take more than a month.
Well honestly, right now it's like asking if your pizza didn't have cockroaches running all over, would you come to love it?
All I can see are the problems right now.
At least neither is a waspinator recolor, he was possibley gonna be one In animated
That was a serious concern for a while there yeah.
Rather surprising you couldn't find another BW Inferno back then as according to the TFWiki he was a shelfwarmer.
Was able to get Legacy Inferno just in time before the Xmas rush, so now I have all the Season 1 BW cast. My only QC with him is the small abdomen propeller panel was loose, but managed to peg in okay in Beast and Robot mode, was just inbetween the transformation that got me worried at first.
Yeah, I don't believe that, like my family TRIED to find one, and couldn't.
Hey congrats I completed my S1 cast too around the same time, so I'm super happy my self.
Finally got this guy, my only real criticism of him would be that the head could be flatter to look more like the cartoon, but i guess hasbro wanted the robot pyromaniac to be "realistic", and the fact that he cant close his propeller in robot mode when the engine is attached, but yeah, pretty excellent figure, i also found a papercraft of the quake 3 arena rocket launcher that fits surprisingly well and resembles his original gun
9:21 You mean Antie from honey I shrunk the kids? Home alone only had a tarantula bug wise, lol
GOD!... Damn it.
Finally legacy got somewhat good good vid.
Thank you very much, and it took too long for wave 3 to try to justify it self.
Cool figure. I must say: "BURN TRAITOR BURN!!"
I could recreate that scene I suppose.
Hes on my buy on sight list along with needlenose. Nothing can stop me when I see either of those.
I'm so glad to not need to hunt for him any more.
If you had to make a new incarnation of inferno in a comic, tv show, or movie. What would you change about him, I mean the only thing that might need to change is his backstory since that’s the only thing that shouldn’t be copy pasted. He already is an awesome character with a cool design
I feel like that should actually kind of stay the same. Like he's a dude that got damaged and took his mental cues off eusocial insects is a really interesting backstory.
Obviously if this were in a Bay Film he'd just show up with no explanation and get no lines.
Missed out on the Legacy Inferno so I had to rewatch this before preordering Antagony
It's a Great figure. Also wound up on the best of year list.
@I-io8ee funny story: I found one Saturday at Walmart. Damaged box got me $5 off. Cancelled my preorder. Lol
When I was younger I couldn’t pronounce my Rs so when they introduced inferno I called him infearno which I still call him to this day. I just think that name suits home more, and it differentiates him from G1 inferno. Just felt like sharing.
I think it's more fitting the way it is. One Inferno being a fighter fighter, and the other being a fighter using fire. It's better than the Skywarp thing considering NOT ONCE does Maximal Skywarp ever teleport. Even BW2 Starscream lives up to being a backstabber.
But there's an R in Infearno?
And I mean I get it, but Regular Inferno fits the Beast Wars guy way more than the G1 one.
@@PerspectiveEnd I agree but I just like to differentiate them considering it’s the same universe.
I think all the beast wars characters in legacy are the best of legacy, taranulas amazing deluxe, inferno amazing voyager and megatron amazing leader, waiting the review for megatron too!
And the other Megatron was an Amazing leader too. The Preds got all the best Revival Figures.
Megatron is actually in stock on BBTS, so if you're still having a hard time finding him, I'd look there (unless you've found him since this video was recorded). I'm really hoping that you don't get a dud copy, because from my experience, his QC is the best of the wave.
The problem is that I don't want to pay 10 extra dollars buying him there.
I've been hearing that Megatron is Great.
This guy oozes cool looks so great in poses
I think Inferno would take umbrage at being described as cool, but I do agree.
Legacy Inferno is great. The only changes I'd make are add green, chrome eyes, no faux-forming, and the series' beast mode. Also, never expected the original toy to be reviewed. Due to it's colours and not having it in hand, I think the original beast wars figure tastes like strawberries.
I'd make the same choices that you did, and yeah, I'm so glad to have been able to bring the OG toy in on this one.
I’d like to give a shout out to the beast wars fan who’s putting all the QC to those figures
The heroes.
A rare but much needed W for legacy wave 3
Indeed and it's sand that it's so rare.
I don’t hate light piping but it seams like such a gamble you might as well sell them two heads, one light piping and one chrome dyed or painted. Or just give us chrome dyes
That would be preferable to me.
7:23 they had to fauform, cuz if they didn't you would just have his feet and hands in bug mode sticking out like a sore thumb.
I mean there are ways they could have dealt with that.
This is mainline not masterpiece, but tell me how they could do that?
*this figure to the rest of the wave* "HAHAHAHAHA FOOLS QC IS MY FRIEND! ALLOW ME TO INTRODUCE YOU TO IT!"
I mean that implies he's going to help them become better.
At the same time you just gave me a really good laugh.
@@PerspectiveEnd that or he'd just beat the snot out of the rest of the wave like how he pulled a Hulk on quickstrike
The only legacy wave 3 figures I have are this and TM2 megatron. Both of which have either no qc problems or negligible ones. Both are fantastic figures.
I'm so happy to see the reports on Megatron.
What do you think inferno would be like if they removed the predacon programing
Probably still very crazy, but he might be less aggressive. His obsessive loyalty was from him being an ant, is violence was from him being a Predacon.
They nailed him. And tarantulas
Indeed they did.
Inferno’s the best example of how wave 3 could be good in Legacy, glad I decided to get him. Imagine if Hasbro pulled that “figure of the year” joke with this release similar to what they did with Kingdom Tigertron despite only being out for a month at that time!
Difference being this one is a legitimate contender for figure of the year. But yeah, would have been funny if Hasbro tried to pull that one again.
I got the golden disk Tigatron the other day, and yeah in no way is that figure of the year material, it’s good, really good, but nah hasbro was bull-shitting with that result.
At least I could have believed it when I got it in hand, because this beats the crap out of Titagron.
Woo-hoo! It's What's the Best Beast Wars Inferno! Since this is all of them Hasbro has ever made if you don't count transmetal Scavenger. The transmetal that was supposed to be Inferno but wasn't I guess...🤷
Also this is I believe all the Third Party Inferno's too.
Sometimes I wonder why, in the same line, there are figures like this one who are simply the best representation of the design they want to be and then there are figures like Wild Rider, Breakdown and some of the repacks/repaints. Given all that, I also wonder if Legacy will re-release some of the figures from past toylines, for example siege Prime, BW megatron etc
In the case of the Legacy Stunticons, they are a special case. They had a separate budget, as a Combiner team, & are only releasing as part of Legacy for distribution, & probably to fill in spaces. Motormaster probably ate most of the budget, so the limb Cons wound up sharing 2 sets of engineering, & Hasbro didn't want to cut into their planned profit, so Breakdown wound up a bit short on tooling budget, & didn't get reshelled.
Some of it is just designers of different levels of talent. Some of it can be that figures are produced at different factories.
But yeah it's infuriating that they can be this varied in quality.
No way we found a micro masterpiece
There have been several before.
@@PerspectiveEnd I know but your very picky
Inferno is fantastic. I found one a week ago. My only issue with it is that his ant head doesn’t tab together properly in ant mode. It’s fine in robot mode so that’s all I care about
Mine has some trouble tabbing the head together, but it's doable.
I imagine a shattered glass mistriss of flame would be similar to inferno
I think she'd probably be more like a nicer person who was also evil none the less, but was like afraid of fire. It could be like an Ironic and mean name.
Hopefully the package refresh for TM2 megatron has the proper orientation for the wingtips. Every figure has them misassembled
I had neither heard they were doing a Package refresh of him, nor that the wings were wrong.
@@PerspectiveEnd well hopefully this is welcome news for you, if the distro can improve he’s out there!
It is indeed, if I can't find one soon.
i always had a what if idea on what if bw inferno had no queen aka no one to follow logically he would commit suicide but it could be interestig to see what inferno would do even if suicide would probably be a lot more logical
Well he already lost the Colony, so he'd probably just try to find someone else to serve.
FOR THE EMPORIUM!!!
FOR THE ROYALTY!!!!
Yes brother burn the non-believers lmao
@9:20 Wait? Wasn't anty for I Shrunk The Kids, not from Home Alone?
Yeah... Damn it... It was right in the script I just Misspoke.
Didn't expect you to reference warhammer 40k.
How could I not? It's exactly what he is.
9:21 Antie from....Home Alone? Mandela Effect? *x-files theme*
No just a misspoken joke, that ruined the punchline.
All good. Still funny
Why can’t the bug legs just fold more to hide them
I think the worry is that they would be weak in the altmode.
Oh hell, we are talking about the original too. Ok, I mostly agree with all you said. But let's go.
Original:
A childhood favorite of mine. But lord help you if you lose his missiles that make up his rear bug legs. And standing him in bug mode takes up a LOT of space and doesn't hold due to loose joints.
Legacy:
I've only grown to love this figure more since I got it. With two minor nitpicks. His robot hands are WAY to small. Inferno had hands almost as big as his head. I swear if a 3rd party makes new hands for him, I'm on board. And the robot mode has eight visible alt legs. Fake ant, 0/10. Tarantula clearly succeeded in making another arachnid.
WAIT! THOSE ARE MISSILES!!!
Yes his hands are too small.
Wait where are his eighth set of legs.
@@PerspectiveEnd Yes those are missiles. they fit in the little grey gun.
In robot mode, he has 2 sets hanging off his arms, 1 set from his hips, and 1 more set molded into his shins. I was joking about it ruining the figure though. It is the smallest nitpick I've probably ever mentioned in a Transformer.
