I am really happy that these are just _Transformers_ again. There were some fine Titan Master and Combiner Wars figures, but having to work that gimmick into every figure put a strain on some of them. HasTak has some brilliant engineers. I want them unencumbered to just come up with elegant, fun, creative transformations!
I agree. The gimmicks are just a bit to much sometimes and don't fit some of the characters in figure form note titans return Galvatron was an example. Great figure but that head gimmick ruined it for me. Glad they didn't do that with this new Siege series but I kinda am not to happy with the battle damage on the figures. I'd rather they be clean versions of my figures tbh but I'm still going to buy them :)
I really like both of these figures. The resemblance to their G1 counterparts is excellent and I definitely will be buying both Optimus Prime and Megatron :)
you know i might like this format, 2 videos per figure one just showcasing it one showing how to transform in detail. There are a lot of figures where the instructions are basically crap and I have to look up videos to figure out how to transform it anyways. I liked it :D
Your Optimus Prime is definitely warped - the roof of mine clips down without any gap. Thank you for the video, that would have been so difficult following the paper instructions!!!
Megatron gave me conniption fits till I realized the tiny small panels on his arms were in the way..then BOOM! Tank mode! And I think it looks gorgeous. :)
I really love these designs. Primes cyber truck is not my favorite but the bot form is awesome and Megatron is perfect in both forms in my opinion. I can’t wait to buy these guys.
I have hegemon and mp10v and still want these megs is a fantastic G1 post prime wars trilogy or season 3? Megs. Optimus is in my pre exodus collection and a must have. Sideswipe, soundwave, and starscream are so over due... the next three years have me more exited for transformers than I have been in years.
I find the Siege Optimus figure has better proportions than Earthrise (I do also have that mold though, it's great). It's transformation is certainly more complex and sufficiently different despite sharing parts. The 35th anniversary version though is BEAUTIFUL and mine (along with 35th Megatron) are two very special figures in my collection - they were held by Frank Welker and Peter Cullen when I had my photo taken with them =)
I'm still conflicted wether to order these and get them earlier than the store release. I'm honestly getting a little impatient with waiting but I have the fear that if I preorder them they might have some kind of production error. It's been awhile since we've seen Hasbro's designers put more effort into their figure engineering.
Oh, Thanks Baltmatrix! Now I know how simply enough transform them from transpot to robot and back again without this stupid instructions when I get them and I won't have problems with it at all. I enjoyed this video pretty well actually.
Quick question should I buy the re release G1 Optimus prime because and I miss the hot rod one it was the only one and some one bought it. even though I was not born in the G1 era I heard people said that it is good so what is your opinion should I add G1 optimus in my collection.
This one is surely my favorite line. On Optimus, I have one question: when you open his chest ans see that empty hole inside for the head, could it also work for a small Matrix of Leadership?
DOOMSLAYER PRIME Megatron has been a tank since... I think Revenge of the Fallen? If not, then... A tank does him more justice than a handgun, Classics be damned. TFA Megs was *really* nice. A breath of fresh air, considering he transformed into an open-rotor VTOL.
When I get my figure for some odd reason my right tread break off and it is unfortunate because I pay $26.98 for my figure and also the right heel have often fell out I was expect like oh this is a cool figure and I am going to have so much fun but when I unbox it that happen I get this at my local Walmart and at the toy Ilse it is mostly cyberverse one step and last knight and few micro master and one out of like 20 were the Meg.
Toa Protos Gotta make that UA-cam money. 😂 J/k it’s not like Emgo’s the only one allowed to make transformation tutorials, plus Emgo doesn’t explain anything in his “Just Transform It” vids. 👍
@@Mikey239226 That's true, but Emgo's JTI vids are exactly that, how to's that aren't encumbered with dialogue. I feel like it's just trying to cash in on being "first" with that none of the other major reviewers have rushed to get Siege videos out and it honestly shows.

@@curtisgangler5855 I will accept shitstains on my toys if they are fun. Simple as that. ;)
@Starscream91 "It also makes the figures more gritty and less childish."
*These are toys, made for **_CHILDREN._*
@Starscream91 As a ten year old, I 100% would have asked, "Why does my toy have poopstains?"
I really like both of these figures. The resemblance to their G1 counterparts is excellent and I definitely will be buying both Optimus Prime and Megatron :)
Nice
Props to the designers for these two. Min amount of hollow space and what there is used well.
Thanks, I was having trouble with the legs on Megatron, but your directions were clear and greatly appreciated!

Absolutely love this siege line!!! Great sculpts and they are affordable
I come here for the size comparison, but I appreciate Balmatrix's thoughtfulness.
Thank you for doing this. Sometimes the instructions are a pain for people with bad eyes. Thank you again. I hope this continues, very helpful sir.
I like the additional walkthrough. It makes it easier to digest VS the long video. Great vid. Can't wait to get siege!

Need those for stop motion there are a masterpiece with the battle damage
I was thinking the same. I really wanna get these figures for stop-motion
This line should be called the real transformers

God damn, these figures look amazing.
Really like the Megatron transformation! Though that sword transformation looks like a pain to do...
So glad you’ve put out these reviews!!!! Can’t wait to see the next siege review!!!
My Prime doesn't have any gap! (Thank God)
I was going to skip this line, but damn it if watching these transformations and getting a close look at the designs isn't swaying me.
Could probably turn Meg's head to look backwards if you don't like seeing him staring out angrily from that slit in tank mode.
Thanks great video, I got a Megatron transformer from e bay from overseas so I couldn't understand the directions thanks!
Also, both figures also have attachment point under their feet, i believe ALL deluxe and above will have them
Oh, Thanks Baltmatrix! Now I know how simply enough transform them from transpot to robot and back again without this stupid instructions when I get them and I won't have problems with it at all. I enjoyed this video pretty well actually.
you're a disaster transforming optimus lol, good job on Megatron, hope to see more siege from you :)
If you leave those two stand any long they will fight
*Megatron* After the review we will fight right old friend.
*Optimus* Yeah Old friend.
I like optimus prime
How all reviews should start. The instruction sheets look like crap! Thank you Balt Matrix
Quick question should I buy the re release G1 Optimus prime because and I miss the hot rod one it was the only one and some one bought it. even though I was not born in the G1 era I heard people said that it is good so what is your opinion should I add G1 optimus in my collection.
Love this type of video thanks
Thank you
“And just ‘sandwich’ everything together”
how to transformer :-)
That is very different than Magnus...I still might try to shove prime in Magnus' armor though.
cool review!
🖒😊👌
Is there an official release date on this line yet?
Can you see if you can fan-mode a gun mode for Megatron
This one is surely my favorite line. On Optimus, I have one question: when you open his chest ans see that empty hole inside for the head, could it also work for a small Matrix of Leadership?
There's a grey panel in Optimus's legs that seems to fold away out of sight in both modes. What does it do?
You know after looking at Megatron's tank mode it kind of resembles a design they use for Megatronus in Transformers robots in Disguise 2015
DOOMSLAYER PRIME Megatron has been a tank since... I think Revenge of the Fallen? If not, then... A tank does him more justice than a handgun, Classics be damned.
TFA Megs was *really* nice. A breath of fresh air, considering he transformed into an open-rotor VTOL.
@@TornaitSuperBird Megatron has been a tank since Generation 2 wich came out in 1992.
Jarmo Verriet thank you. And yep- now I remember. Tank suits Megs really well.
When is it available?
Wow megatron was hard it was so many work
I'm thinking the terms 'Voyager Class' and 'Leader Class' really need to be swapped around...
cool
WHAT ?
IN WHICH PART OF THE WORLD DID YOU GET THEM ?
How do you get figures like this these so early
How has only the top comment pointed out the typo?
Well i lost megatron’s blasters and sword so i used brawls gun and optimus iron blaster
R they really coming out. If they r does anyone know. I. Have to know. Please!!! Can someone post it. Think you!!!
Emgo has the same type of videos
OPTIMUSPRIME VS MEGATRON, STARSCREAM AND BLACKOUT BATTLESET2015.
Looks like Optimus compacts more than Megatron when they transform.
When I get my figure for some odd reason my right tread break off and it is unfortunate because I pay $26.98 for my figure and also the right heel have often fell out I was expect like oh this is a cool figure and I am going to have so much fun but when I unbox it that happen I get this at my local Walmart and at the toy Ilse it is mostly cyberverse one step and last knight and few micro master and one out of like 20 were the Meg.
Never mind
So why does megatron has scratches
Because battle damage is one of the "gimmicks" of this line.
Balt, I love your stuff my man, but Isn't this kind of a ripoff of Emgo316's Just Transform It videos?

Gotta make that UA-cam money. 😂

This was great thank you. Unfortunately the instructions hasbro sends with them are the most useless thing in the world.
Oh shit I think I'm going to piss my pants
@QynoPus Army I Frased it wrong🤣
Should do it like Emgo, where he Transforms it with no dialogue, at all.
0/10 no transforming sound >:(
Pretty sure Megatron was a Walther P38 pistol, NOT a tank.
In my opinion the battle damage is bad and annoying
I dont want my megatron beautiful bucket head to be smudged by a birds shit stain
