I've never had a problem with his reviews, but I can understand why some ppl do. I don't really care for the skits at the end though.

Well, can't please everyone. If you try, you'll end up being the water of beverages, plain, tasteless, but something nobody complains about drinking.

Coke, Pepsi, whatever, if that's your flavor, that's your flavor.

Personally, I enjoy his reviews, and I find his skits funny.

Just watched the review. Impressive figure. Funny how they included a G1 gun Megatron pic on the card. Lots of paint and ratchets. Too bad it wasn't already out with this 25% off sale this week. I also like this guys reviews. Not as boring as Peaugh.

I like his reviews too, and his skits!

Anyway, this toy looks GREAT!

SO SHINY! @.@

Shoulders are a bit crappy, but otherwise he's pretty impressive.

emgo's one of the few I like.

Have you guys seen what he looks like though? Total geek. Which is awesome. :D

Oh I love the bot mode AND the alt mode. No movement on the turret though is disappointing.

It rotates 360; that's good enough for me! Plus REAL TREADS.

Why? They both look awesome; I'm definitely getting both! I'm pretty picky myself, but all the more reason to enjoy the good figures when they come along!

Looking at a toy fair pc, turrent could rotate.
I thought emgo looked like his t-shirt in the background.

Pretty sure there is some turret rotation ability, well, according to this official pic there is...

Yup it rotates 360 degrees with no clearance issues. Here's (http://blackplasticlife.blogspot.ca/2015/02/generations-combiner-wars-leader-class.html) a great review.

The turret is normally locked into place by the crotch piece, to get it to rotate you need to undo that transformation step.

The biggest disappointment is that his arm cannon doesn't have the G1 look to it.

Could not agree more. That is the most detracting detail.

As for emgos reviews. Yes they annoy me with the same punch lines and repetition but his enthusiasm is great.

I was under the impression it could rotate as well given the rotating disk the arms are attached to under his chest. No tilt to the cannon though, which sucks for kids.

The canon CAN look more G1, you just need to swivel it around on its mounting point so the back points the otherway and BOOM! Giant fusion canon and no missile.

It does rotate, just check the Armada Megatron review, he explains his mistake.

The turret can rotate, but cannot swivel up/down. Would've been even cooler if that happened. But as it stands, I still like it a lot. :D

Definitely not disappointed by it. Just wish it could get here sooner!
