Awesome video! I’m in the process of checking out the mini transformers to start with my collection too and needed some additional advice on scaling and which ones look better, this has really been a great video...oh and love the collection dude!

Glad to help! I had a lot of trouble understanding scale before starting also. Thanks

Great video! Btw, papa toys and mech fans toys reflector are both upscaled versions of Perfect Effect Scouting Force-X. They are the original one for that mold from many years ago. Very small but they are amazing and still holds up very good today

Very good and useful vid on sizing.👌

We'll to be honest, I really haven't started collecting Legends scale figures yet. I would like to purchase a few, just so I can have them next to the toyworld/Zeta combiner. Would love to purchase that ms prime, iron factory Tyrant and Starscream along with Shock wave. I love how they display next to city Bots and combiners. But just too much on my plate right now. As always great video.

Glad to have helped. This legends stuff is confusing. Thanks

I'm still new to collecting transformers and I'm trying to learn the language.....can I bother you for a brief break down? Like what is legends size scale? What does chug mean? How many different sizes are there......and anything else you could throw in.......???? Great video, I'm just still lost cause I don't know the different companies, sizing and other termanolgy....

This is exactly what has kept me off legends. 5 or 6 companies making them and 5/6 different scales. They think it forces brand loyalty, but it just keeps alot of people away. I have some MFT figures as my mainline legends they work great for that. I also had a couple Magic Square just to see what the hubbub was about. They were impressive but I sold them off immediately, this scale will never be for me at their price.

I'm 100% new to Legends sized Transformers and I care about how the figures scale to Optimus Prime and Megatron. I think I'm going to start with Magic Square Megatron and Prime. If you do more vids, can you compare the figures height to those leaders? Thanks.

Nice review! Man, I love the legends scale but too many repaints and different legend sizes throw it off. If you're looking for some Legends scale Head masters lmk. I sold most of all my legends and went to Hasbro for the Siege line.

The quality, affordability, and availability of Siege has definitely helped keep me off these legends figures too. They look cool, but the lack of a unified scale is very offputting to me. Seems like a lot of work to piece together a collection that looks "right".

Personally i think that legend scale car guys like the newage ones (jazz, the datsun dudes excetera) scale weally well (realistically speaking) with Mp-sized jet dudes (Blitzwing and the Seekers for example). The Mech Fans Toys Gears (and by extension Swerve) also scale really well with my Dx9 Blitzwing, so yeah.

Where you get Bruticus and wheeljack?

Where did you get the upsized devastator

These are very well made and have quality which is definitely higher than Hasbro’s but the price will forever keep me away from them

I just got a few new Legend scale even that MFT Combat Commander & Magnus I got today they are well detailed for being so small and Magnus is pretty beefy.

The Ratchet and Ironhide are Mech Planet, Hot Soldiers, not Mech Fans Toys. Both companies had a work relationship at first, but they parted ways last year. Anyway, that's the reason why they more or less scale well with MFT. P.S. Magic Square Blaster is being KO'd by MFT and should be coming out soon, so that could be a better option for your display.👍🏻 Also, MFT's Reflector is an upsize of the Perfect Effect set, with the head sculpt from Maketoys it seems. The head on MFT Kup seems to be from Fanstoys Koot.

@@tydiriumhanger1320 Really? Because I read on MFT's Weibo that it's 12 cm tall, which makes it just as tall as the HS Prime. Here's a personal tip, if you got that info off of Showzstore, what I've noticed is that their info on heights tends to be inaccurate.

The more I see the more confused I get.

Dude be careful with the seekers, their left arms(the one that goes to the cockpit)has a tendancy to break during tranformation, it happened to all 3 of my seekers.

Just letting u know about the tp-01 Titan Power voltron is ready to ship out from ShowZ.com and tfdirect, cheaper on ShowZ.com, nontransforming golion 12in golion, stylized design like the icarus&mad toys version, mines aon it's way, Benscollectibles has a video of him,along with the Fantasy jewel black lionbot to finally complete its voltron set. We'll see if they take the Weijiang Jinbao route to continue improving or the old ko's route of continuing with low quality control products. Alot of people having trouble with the red lion's connection to the body staying in, might be just some, could be all?

I need 2buy some more since you do need 2 update the sections you bond, like for 3days straight, (but don't move the sections yet,) wait&let it set then try movement after 3 applications, otherwise it's not going to stay together.

Mechanic Studios releases are accurate G1 show minis and thier con triple changers are absolute blast. MFTs are bigger but cheaper. u kinda think why others price thiers waay too much. Hot Soldiers and MFT minibots are for CHUG genenerations lineup coz obviously they filled what was missing with hasbro's released minibots.

That Iron Factory Bruticus is nice...but not an unholy $210 nice. There is a KO of the Iron Factory Bruticus, though...that seems more reasonable. Meanwhile, there's that Iron Factory Scorponok, "Lordscorpion". That's pretty sick.
