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.
@@bantuboi3131 funny how the world works, didnt get the chance to get any big guy from the transmetal era adfter i got the 2 combiners, magnaboss and trypredacus, something i dont regret in the least, in fact i barely got just a couple of basics and a deluxe, which i also loved at the time so also dont regret tht decision, but if i knew poor scavenger was going to be neglected, i would have tried harder to get it
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 was not expecting so much inferno.
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.
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.
Inferno and Rampage are my favorites. It's so good to see this guy get a win. Every time he's on screen, I'm amused.
I am Much the same. Now we just need to wait on a Rampage figure.
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
God damn it yes...
That's sad to hear, but it's nice that you still have your Childhood one.
You never prepared me for how large he is and his ant mode is ginormous.
I said that this is a Big Voyager.
This guy would mention the colony or the royalty in any sentence seamlessly
Not any sentence, EVERY sentence.
FOR THE ROYALTY
ALL HAIL THE QUEEN
*BURN*
@@MCS_Mr.Malice Megatron: "I wish he wouldnt call me that"
I don't Rock and Roll, I burn!
FOR THE QUEEN!!!
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.
Man I've been toy hunting over and over. Cant find a Single damn thing right now. Hope you have more success.
One of your very best reviews ever. A comparative approach is inherently richer and more informative. Well done and thanks again.
Thank you. I'm glad this one spoke to you so much.
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.
I'm glad that transformation makes sense for someone. I struggle with it a little.
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!
I'm happy to hear that I'm able to help you out with my harsh takes.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
-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.
what a treat and a great video to wake up to, you made my day
I'm glad you liked it
Thank you so much
I'm thrilled you are thrilled.
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.
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 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).
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.
9:21 ah yes, Antie, my favorite Home Alone character
…
wait
GOD.... Damn it.
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.
I don't know man. I don't think so, cause it just confuses people before the punchline.
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
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?
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.
You never found another BW Inferno? That’s strange. I heard it was a notorious shelf-warmer.
I've never believed that rumor.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
Inferno and bomb burst are the only two wave figures I’ve got, qc is good on both thankfully
Fun fact: the original bw inferno was a 1997 figure, airazor was as well. This means that in the second year of the toyline, there were only two characters who were in the show(5 if you count tripredacus but they were in one episode, didn’t look like that, and weren’t beastformers)
It’s weird you couldn’t get another inferno back then. His transmetal version was renamed to scavenger because hasbro shipped out an entire assortment of infernos and stores weren’t willing to get another inferno mold since he was still shelfwarming in 98. They sent out an entire assortment of scavengers like they did with inferno and he ended up shelfwarming harder because he’s the only transmetal not named after a show character
I've never put any stock into that Story about the regular Inferno shelf warming, because they always came in Case Assortments and just look at how Arcee Shelfwarmed in Kingom and ER, yet stores are taking the 86 version as well now.
Pluss it's just not true, when my family tried SO hard to find one and couldn't and if they didn't sell why aren't they all OVER ebay?
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.
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.
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
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.
Remember?
First Waspinator, then buzzsaw, and now inferno? Light piping man.
The bugs man.
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.
Inferno is such a joy of a figure. Absolutely amazing and made my top 10 (Hasbro/Takara) best of the year list. Mine's but flaps are a tad loose, but LORD i adore him. All of Legacy's Beast Wars figures REALLY knocked it out of the park. (Transmetal II Megatron made my top 10 (Hasbro/Takara) best of the year list even though i got him on the last day of 2022)
Mines butt flaps are a bit loose too, but it's not a big issue to me, and yes he wound up on my top 10 of the year too.
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.
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.
“Fool pain is my friend allow me to introduce you to it”
That may be my favorite quote of his.
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.
You definitely need to keep looking for a TM2 Megatron, it's probably my top figure of 2022.
That's what people are telling me.
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.
You know it's good when PE says something is good when he says it's a micro masterpiece.
Well Micro Masterpiece doesn't have to mean the best of the best, just aiming for something very accurate and quality.
I finally found this man, I am so glad i did and didnt have to beg my dad to buy it. he said he bought it because he hadent bought me one in a while, which i mean... isnt wrong, last transformer i got was legacy armada megs for the hollidays
Hey congratulations! How are you liking it?
@PerspectiveEnd might be recency bias but it's my favorite figure I own right now
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.
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!"
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.
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.
Damn, I’m so tempted to grab this but when it comes to anything outside of legends scale I have to passionately want/need it. I like beast wars but don’t have the room for it.
Though one thing I am super hyped for is that ironfactory has announced optimus primal and Cheetor for the samurai line!
Wait? When did that happen? I didn't see that Announcement.
You probably accidentally said that he doesn't have any specialty joints, because he has butterfly, double knees, his feet are insane, he could have very easily not have a separate wrist... He's kicking a lot of Mps asses! Plus you can untab the ant head and get an ab crunch.
I did forget about the shoulder, but I wouldn't describe his knees as having specialty joints.
Wait wait wait, I was messing with inferno this morning and decided to watch this video today. 1) Pick up Leo Prime, the legacy figure is very similar to inferno in the way the kibble gets in the way, but can be forgiven.
2) And most importantly, anti is from Honey I Shrunk the Kids m. You quoted the wrong movie man.
Sorry to be the UMMMMM ACTUALLY D-bag much love!
I am aware. I messed up, and ruined the joke. It was in the script correctly and everything. Brain just no work.
Still pretty funny lol
Your fine man, wasn’t being serious, only reason I knew was cause I watch the movie the other day 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.
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
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.
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.
*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
Cool figure. I must say: "BURN TRAITOR BURN!!"
I could recreate that scene I suppose.
Do you like lugnut he’s pretty close to inferno in personality, just less pyromania, but equally if not more loyal, and just as fanatical. Not to mention memeroable lines
I think Lugnut is both more and less devoted. Lugnut couldn't think Negatively of Megatron. Inferno Could, but wouldn't care.
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.
Soooo… who won Starscream? Also great vid as always, keep up the good work!
They haven't gotten back to me yet, so I can't announce it till they do.
I’d like to give a shout out to the beast wars fan who’s putting all the QC to those figures
The heroes.
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
Seems like an 'answered prayer' on many levels!
'Royal' video, bro!
PS. Amazing how this was a case mate for Armada Starscream! (Worlds apart as far as quality is concerned.)
Thank you very much.
Indeed they are. They aren't even close. This thing Styles on Starscream.
@@PerspectiveEnd 🙏
Nothing to do with the video. But I really want a G1 MP Prime. So I have narrowed it down to two options the Magic Square Light of Freedom and MS Light of Peace. I’m stuck and don’t know which want to pick so I asking you Perspective on which one I should buy since you own both.
The Light of Freedom is Currently the one I'd recommend, as the plastic looks way nicer, and it has the better Transformation, how ever it may be a little hard to Track down.
However if the Light of Peace gets released in better plastic, then that is the one I'd recommend.
So unless you find a Light of Freedom for a good price soon, I'd say wait a few months to see if the Peace comes out in nicer materials.
Just got the Takara 2-pack for Airazor (for my wife, Airazor was almost LITERALLY her only toy in her horrible childhood). And somehow I had confused the hate for KD Scorponok as being for this guy, so I was BLINDSIDED by his quality. For me, this is everything a Voyager should be.
I know it's a little dumb to say, but I'm sorry to hear your wife had such a hard time growing up.
What is this about KD Scorponok?
OH! Kingdom Scorponok! I thought KD was like a 3P company I'd never heard of or something.
Yeah, that figure is Wretched.
@@PerspectiveEnd No joke, it's often a touchstone for me to give Hasbro a break. While they're obviously guilty of all the usual corporate BS, the fact is that what they make is TOYS. Ya know. Things that make people's lives better. I literally know a child whose life they tangibly improved; and not just back then, but also now when she looks up at the characters she loved in Beast Wars on the shelf and gets to remember the GOOD things from her childhood. They don't get a free pass, but it's something I like to keep in mind.
Bad QC! Their invading the colony!
Inferno is holding them off, and protecting his Queen.
Didn't expect you to reference warhammer 40k.
How could I not? It's exactly what he is.
What alt mode would he have on cybertron, save with blackarnia, and quickstrike
He was probably like a Forklift. I think Blackarachnia was confirmed as a Motorcycle.
And quickstrike was honestly probably a Golfcart or something.
I saw this once in a Target and then never again. I'll have to swallow my pride and order it online. I like seeing the product to make sure it's good, but I cannot take this l.
I have to say, Inferno is the perfect form of a static character. He has no depth, one personality trait, and barely changes in the end. But his psychotic nature is so perfect and so amusing that he ended up my second favorite character. I would pay an arm and a leg for a Doom clone with him as the playable character.
Yeah, at this point I basically order everything online, because you just can't find the stuff on line.
And yeah you aren't wrong about that. He's so much fun despite not having the characteristic depth of the Rest of the BW cast.
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 really enjoy the legacy figure, he perfectly captures the manic energy of the character in the show.
On a kinda random note, I still think there should be a target exclusive two pack with both the new generations figures of g1 and BW Inferno. Obviously I don’t think this should be the only way they should be available, but I think the concept is too perfect to not do.
I could see them doing that if they were like going to do a clear Inferno.
9:21 You mean Antie from honey I shrunk the kids? Home alone only had a tarantula bug wise, lol
GOD!... Damn it.
Legacy Inferno is the definition of royalty.
Question who is more loyal Inferno, Waspinator, Soundwave, or Shockwave
It's a tie between Inferno and Soundwave.
I'd say it's gotta be Inferno, just because in the 86 Movie, Soundwave did allow Megatron to die at the hands of Starscream, and Shockwave never had his loyalty tested.
I thought this was wave 2 cuz it got leaked so early i thought it was official like that. Man people should just control themselves to not ruin surprises
Yeah this has been known for SO LONG!
As the royalty commanded.
I did command this yes.
starscream: do i count???
perspective: yes but actually no so.....
starscream: ow why am i still alive but you hate me
perspective: i don't hate you i just think you have a lot of potential wasted
starscream: ok so i'm just gonna wait for my upgrade in 10 yrs
cring alert - by local idiot
Hopefully we won't have to wait for a Re-release that's better.
Even in death, I serve the queen
That is one of the most Tragic things about BW. Megatron killing his favorite subordinate.
@@PerspectiveEnd it’s also reference to Warhammer
I don’t know home alone and how honey I shrunk the kids were the same film
Slip of the Tongue that ruins the joke. I am so pissed at my self.
Have you had any interest in any of the earthspark toys? Deluxe megatron is not that good but I like his transformation and alt mode. Bumblebee is awesome (aside from no waist swivel) bot mode is probably one of my new favorite bumblebee designs, transformermation seems like it’d be simplistic but the way the arms and legs work is really cool and the alt mode is probably my new favorite bumblebee alt mode. Still looking for Twitch as she’s one of my new favorite transformers characters, she’s just so cute!
I mean I've been enjoying Earthspark so Kind of, but the toys don't look that good, so I've really been on the fence.
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.
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.
thanks to inferno i now say is "my loyalty is my own royalty" idk why i say it but i still do after i help someone
You are loyal to your loyalty?
@@PerspectiveEnd nothing thats what i say when i help someone
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.
I guess what made me stop picking up baddies is the fact they are baddies. I have never really been a fan of the villains. If you look at my room, most of my collection is good guys with a few bad guys thrown in. But I really only care about the heroes.
I did misspeak a little. I have a few designed Decepticons, but again, if you watched Transformers Cybertron from beginning to end you'll see why.
Starscream is the exception to the rule because of a Giant Starscream (the same size as Primus) that I use as a Megazord.
I've always enjoyed both sides of the Morality Spectrum. And bad guys are often allowed to have some of the most fun characterization.
What do you think chased inferno to belive megatron was his queen, I mean I get he thinks he’s an ant, but why did he assume megatron specifically was his queen, waspinator is likely the biologically and visual closested to him, imagine if waspinator had his own lackey
I think it's as simple as, Megatron is the Leader, the leaders of Ants are Royalty, Ant Royalty are female = Megatron is Queen.
Getting evolution Hotshot tomorrow, thank you again amazon!
I got mine, and it's better than we feared.
But og inferno's beast mode has hands sticking out of his knees!
I mean yeah, but they don't much look like hands.
@@PerspectiveEnd warts then
I got the figure earlier today. It's pretty good and it definitely is a good mainline inferno toy
The only problem i have with it is that he doesn't have the gun he had in the show. Like seriously who's idea was it to not give him his gun and just give him his butt cannon
I mean he does look good with his butt cannon in hand but honestly I'm thinking of giving him a upgrade kit that actually gives him his actual gun
Yeah, instead they wanted his butt engine to double as the toy's gun, which is unfortunate.
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.
