 Hey guys, welcome back to coming in TV the only place on YouTube. We're all geek culture collides I'm Shannon and today on the show. We're taking a look at the I want to say dollar general exclusive Megatron As I said, this did come from Dollar General about five dollars. I just did a review on the Dollar General Optimist Prime Which if you're watching this in the playlist should come up right after this video But anyway, as I said with Optimus Very Decent transformer figure for the price is about five dollars a dollar general The my local Dollar General had Megatron they had Optimus and they had Starscream I Did not pick up Starscream because I've never really been much of a Starscream fan John my former co-host here. He's a huge Starscream fan. So John if you're watching this Head on over to Dollar General. I got these at the Mount Zion Dollar General They may still have Starscream there for you So anyway, let's go ahead and take a look at the packaging real quick zoom out Very generic clamshell packaging there you have Megatron up there in Animation style. I I guess And then his tank mode there Decepticon Megatron ages six and up from Hasbro Transformers logo It did come with Just like with Optimus even though I forgot to mention this instructions Very very simple Transformation so anyway, and then here on the back Evil Decepticon leader You got Megatron and his tank mode Optimus was four easy steps Megatron is six steps You can see here. It's an authentic transformers figure from Hasbro and we'll wait while that vehicle passes by right So real quick before we get into them Let's do a little comparison between Megatron and Optimus Prime from the same same Dollar General line Megatron is obviously larger than Optimus I Think they're pretty well even Size-wise in the cartoon and comics Megatron may be a little bit taller, but I don't think it's by much at least I don't think it's by as much as here As you can see I do have to lean Optimus forward a little bit because of the giant backpack on his back Also for size comparison we compared Optimus To cloud raker last time let's go turn this a bit We also compared him to Twin fur no now from Megatron Let's compare them to Wing span quite a bit taller than wingspan. We'll also compare them to Trigger happy from the same line Has twin fur no as you can see trigger happy is quite a bit taller than Megatron Megatron is quite a bit taller than wingspan So anyway, let's go ahead and move these guys off to the side and we'll take a look at the articulation For our fallen Megatron Zoom in a bit. There we go. All right, so for articulation His head is on a ball joint. I can look up slightly Look down slightly He can turn his head, but it is very difficult to turn it because of his shoulders there He can do that confused dog look His arms do go all the way around They bend at the elbow All right, they can go up about that far He does have his gun which can turn he does not have a back cannon though His legs Go that far up Bend at the knee Zoom back out a bit There we go bend at the knee and go all the way back like that and You get kind of an ankle rocker, but that's part of his transformation Overall the paint job is very nice Simplistic, but nice got the Decepticons logo there The back is incredibly simplistic because of the transformation So let's go ahead and transform first things first. We got to take the gun off Okay, bring the arms back Just like that Okay, well, I guess first thing before we do that Bring the feet out bring the legs up They connect right there Then oh no Very a lot easier than Optimus to pop back on this part's a little bit more difficult There we go. All right bring his arms and you're almost done his cannon or gun pegs There's a little hole there and a little hole right there two pegs there on Both sides you'll peg it into one side and then you'll peg it in To the other side just like that Like I said, very simple transformation Just that a bit. There we go the treads They do not move There's no wheels on the bottom or anything Let's do a size comparison between Megatron's tank mode and Optimus Prime's truck mode. So here's the truck mode. There's a tank mode as you can see in Robot mode Megatron is a little bit bigger than Optimus, but in in vehicle mode Optimus is obviously bigger than Megatron Which I don't know if I agree with I think Megatron in that case should be larger than Optimus He's a tank should be big. He should be massive and intimidating so move him back out of the way and We'll transform Megatron back All right so first things first We get rid of the gun Just pops right back out like that And then Spin the arms around you'll have to go Clockwise Because of the feet there bring the feet or legs down Put the feet My dog's barking back there back into place Bring the arms out And down and then we'll reattach The gun and it will go on this side Just like that like I said very simple transformation very basic figure But a very decent transformer for the $5 price tag As I said, I picked this along with Optimus up at Dollar General $5 Can't beat it. So let's go ahead and turn this gun around As you can see there's peg hold there And it does look like Both his and Optimus's hands Can hold Other transformer weapons Let's go ahead and check on that here is gun from Twinferno Yep, just pegs right in there Holds it pretty tight Very nice Um, so yeah Uh If you got a dollar general near you, which I'm sure you do they're on just about every corner nowadays Head on over there And pick you up a couple transformers Very great buy for the price. I have to say I was a little concerned Um because of the price tag and because of dollar general isn't really known for quality toys But I I have to say I'm very impressed So anyway, that does it for today guys Take care if you enjoyed that video make sure you hit the subscribe button right there So you can see up to date on all things geek culture Also, make sure you check out one of these two playlists on the side For more videos just like the one you just watched I'm shannon for coming getting tv the only place on youtube where all geek culture collides Take care geeks
