I bought this, when I got it and pulled it out of the box I was so impressed. It really gave me that fans toys feel, I recently picked up their inferno and grapple and was like wow! Once I started messing with it a bit the old xtb came through, things not working as they should. Their commitment to the finer details is what makes them a class below fans toys. They have improved but not enough to be considered the best out there. Love the focus on the paint application and sculpt but they really need to iron out those engineering issues. I'm not even gonna bother transforming him, I always like to transform my figures at least once but he will just sit pretty on my shelf and that's good enough for me

How widespread is the cracked waist skirt Q/C problem? Also, I heard one person mention some samples have loose abs and/or waist joints. Do you know anything about those? I'm on the fence about this figure, and those two things are the only potential deal breakers. The shoulder issue looks annoying, but I'm confident I can fix it if my sample has the problem, and while the transformation is hard, I can appreciate it's not the worst by XTB's standards. I also won't transform it frequently enough to seriously stress the parts.

I find it best to lean him all the way forward then tilt him at an angle and place it back in so you have clearance to tilt it. Either way awesome video as always and you got this out so quick, ended up more positive than I thought talking to you 😂

This is like a throwback to older XTB designs, over-engineered and not fun. No wonder not many reviewers were transforming this on camera, well done for being that brave! I love XTB, and this guy looks amazing, but that Transformation (especially for someone like me who goes in with no instructions) looks like 2 hours of hell, coming out the other end sweating, tired, and with probably more than a couple of broken pieces. He doesn't look THAT much better than MP22 to warrant putting myself through that nightmare. I still have PTSD from transforming their Menasor trailer with no instructions (3 hours and only 1 broken tab, but still) and that guy is NEVER coming out of combined mode.

Just another reminder for me why I stopped with the MP stuff. If I want to pay high prices for something I can’t transform, I’ll get threezero or flametoys. These over complicated, over engineered designs are not needed for such simple looking bots. Plus a lot of them seem to put the money into the piece count and paint, so we get stuff like plastic breaking or screws not being able to stay in and at this point in the game, that is unacceptable ESPECIALLY from an established company like XTB. Maybe the Fanstoys will be better but I don’t have much hope that it won’t be compromised in transformation or articulation. So disappointing for the people who were really looking forward to this, especially for $200+.

If did not already have the Takara nor the original Stack, this is probably worth the price they are asking for and would have gotten it. The engineering involved to get it in both modes is complex and fragile but when it gets to those modes, the look is fantastic. It outshines any version out there in both modes. I think it's fragile in a sense that it is composed and dependent of so many thin panels having tiny tabs to form a stable cab. Eventually, some of those panels and tabs will loosen or break and will compromise the stability of that cab and fall apart. The complexity and difficulty of the transformation doesn't really bother me as I do admire how they engineered it and I see it more as a puzzle in its intricacy to solve. For $200, I have the Takara in robot mode and the Old Stack in cab mode and at 8 feet away; I'll never be able to tell the difference IF i get this new Stack. Sorry, Xtrans. I think 200 is a good price for how it looks, the engineering, and features but you are just too late in the game for me. If it goes down to $125 or $150, I might buy it on a whim. At this point, this is more of a, "if I had money to waste" kind of a purchase.

Nice review. I checked tfw2005 to see what kind of pics people posted of their breakages, for a better look. I'm wondering if you had a chance to look inside the rotator cuffs; apparently the white plastic parts inside have screws that have cracked the plastic, some have reported. May have to keep my preorder of FansToys Magnus. Seems KFC/Xtb tend to rush projects out when Chinese New Year is near, which trends with a greater number of quality control issues than usual. If I made a mistake in buying a lemon of a product from Xtb, I won't make it again. Best to stick with releases before November from these guys, it seems.

I also just don't like any of the faces they made for it. Fortunately FT did announce one as since then.

That transformation looked like a complete nightmare and the overengineering along with QC issues makes me say "nope". I would say I'll wait on the FT's version but that's probably 5 years from now and they're doing the Dreamwave gimmick where the trailer lego parts forms around the Prime figure. Who's next...MMC, Maketoys, the resurrected TE/DS...or will it be an entirely brand new company?

X-transbots Just cannot seem to get out of its own way as far as overcomplicated puzzle formers. Some might argue that it needs to be complicated but I think they're is a reason that Takara is so good at what it does. I personally think they're a better versions of this figure out there

His transformation is a nightmare, his arms are held together by a single screw just like their springers foot is also held by a piece of plastic and single screw. if you turn mister stacks arms 5 to 6 times forward, behold his arm will come undone. But this dude won't show that part.

I owned 3 Xtransbots figures at one time. Boost and Apollyon are garbage. Aegis is good in my opinion. Not fanstoys-level good, but still good.

Fiddly nightmare transformation. Easy pass. It sucks cuz the Mangmotion stop motion transformation almost sold me on it, but as usual he made it look much less tedious than it is. Seeing it flop around up for the torso/cab… gives me flashbacks to Alien Attack’s DOTM Megatron.

Yeah I love mangmotion channel but it is a not a realistic view at the transformation because stop motion means the figure is at rest for every picture and not in someone's hands

They should make articulated action figures that don't transform with Accessories, they would make a killing

Head articulation is lacking. QC issues are rampant. Transformation is poorly designed. They just dropped the ball on this release. He looks fine in robot mode. But that’s about all it has going for it.

That’s all I need going for it but I get how it’s frustrating to others. Hopefully FT eventually drops theirs because the Takara is outdated

FYI this guy figured out how to fix the shoulder problem. Seems like it's a mis-assembly? Hopefully yours isn't too tight to fix! kzitem.info/news/bejne/u3eXsIqobneobKw

Nice review TM. As always. Well, this one and the last few look like XTB is back to typical form of "looks" good but bad engineering and QC. My decision to not by XTB anymore still stands. :( Sculpt breaking articulation joints, like this ab crunch, don't count. Cracks right out of the box... Nightmare transformation... Inconsistent tolerances... superfluous lights and sounds that nobody asked for to inflate the price... Easy pass... I'll wait for Fans Toys and in the meantime Keep my MP

Omg how disappointing. 🤦♂️ and for a 200 figure. No excuse for that.
