That's the name of his YouTube channel as well. He's the admin of a Facebook page called the Transformers YouTuber community. It's a Facebook group that it's pretty cool It's a bunch of us Transformer YouTubers. We get together. We talk about our videos. We show off our videos We kind of subscribe to each other and give each other pointers on how to make these things better So what he proposed a couple days ago was he issued this challenge He calls it his homework and it's called toys you still love even after the shine wore off So what it is is you have an old figure. Yeah, I've got a bunch to choose from back there It's a figure you bought. You were excited to get. I mean this was an awesome toy You played with it. You reviewed it. You just couldn't put it down and then you did Some you never touch again. There's quite a few figures, especially in that corner That's not g1 that I haven't fooled with in a long time But what this video is is you grab one of those toys that The shine never wore off. This is one that you always go to. This is one you show off This is one you still mess with So that's that's the gist of this challenge and that's what I'm going to show off for you guys After this awesome rock and roll intro Now I thought long and hard about which figure I was going to showcase in this video and then it finally dawned on me Every time that I bring somebody into this office for the first time There's always one figure that I pull off the shelf to show off and that is 1984's generation one Megatron now. It's funny that the challenge is toys that the shine wore off This guy is awesome and shiny. I mean this is one of my favorite g1 figures Granted when I first got him in 1984 I was kind of disappointed that he doesn't look a thing like he did in the cartoon But you get over that, you know your imagination takes over as a kid, but I absolutely love this figure I mean he he's awesome. He's got nice tight squeaky joints. I mean, he's in really good shape now Funny story about this figure. I found him at a flea market probably about 10 years ago It was just his pistol mode. He didn't have any except or just him himself He didn't have any accessories and he was in gun mode So I'm looking down to table and I look at the guy selling and I was like how much for that toy gun right there and He goes up $3. So immediately I went about $3. I hand it to him He takes the money and I pick Megatron up and transform him into robot mode guy looks at me and he goes I didn't know it did that. I'm gonna have to ask for more money and I said no, sir You said $3 money has been exchanged. This guy's going to a good home So off the eBay. I went and over the years. I got all these pieces and parts Now why I enjoy this figure not only for the nostalgia purposes I love showing him off to just show How far transformers have come and what they will never be again now. I like to display my Megatron with the Barrel of the gun facing up, which is not in the instructions. It's supposed to be swung down So it gives him a little bit more of that cartoon accuracy But when I first take this guy off the shelf and I go to transforming go ahead and starting from how he's supposed to be I take him off the shelf and I'm talking to my guests in the house. I'll say yeah, this is a awesome transformer We'll go ahead and transform him into gun mode You know, of course, and they're watching me do this and they're just in shock and all Of how one that I can do this with no problem Get them all together here and then once I get him transformed It takes me a while line those legs up. Just right There you go. Now once I get him transformed into his glorious gun mode, I'll hand him off And I'm like feel how heavy this guy is. That's a die cast metal in him and I explained that you will never ever see a transformer toy like this again. I mean that is a very Realistic looking pistol today's in today's aim in today's day and age This will never happen not with toy laws and things. They are now So, you know, I really like to impress him with you know the fact that he turns into a very realistic looking gun Now when I was a kid not only did I play with Megatron as a transformer, you know He fighting Optimus Prime and the other Autobots. I used this guy all the time when I was Role playing with my friends. He was my gun when we're out playing cops and robbers or whatever We did back in the day that didn't trigger people back then and I always use my Megatron I pull his legs down like so so, you know, I Can do it I'm afraid to now, but I would slap the legs back up like I'm loading a clip into it So yeah, I love this guy. This is one toy an old toy that the shine has never wore off literally a Beautiful figure and a highly recommended figure if you're a G1 collector.
