MP Megatron Reviews?

Hi I recall a couple of Megatron reviews that had pictures in them, and one of them was by Autobot032 and the other I don't remember. The important thing for me is to have a look at the warnings these two members gave when it came to transforming MP5 for the first time. I believe one of them even had pictures with the stress/ caution points circled. I don't seem to have any luck with the search engine. Anyone know the URL of any of these 2 reviews? I do'nt want to ruin and break my MP5. Thanks!

The review with the point circled, was mine. I too failed to find the review. Apparently it was deleted in the reset.

Give me a few minutes and I'll do my best to answer the important parts.

EDIT: I LOVE YOU GOOGLE!

This is their cached copy of my review with pictures still intact:

MP Megs is the only TF I've owned and never transformed, I'm just too much of a coward :sad:

Thanks man, you rock!

But just a question on the google thing, what's this cache business? I did try to type in "Masterpiece Megatron review Autobot032" but turned up nada. How'd you find it? Just so I can try the same thing myself next time before wasting a post here.

I went to Google, typed in this as follows:

Masterpiece Megatron Review, Autobot032, Seibertron

I hit enter and it was the first result. Look next to the link in green and you'll see Cached, Similar Pages.

Click Cached and it'll give you the link I provided. It's always a great tool for board resets, dead links, crappy webmasters who don't pay their bills, etc.

It's like Google's version of the wayback machine.

I remember that reveiw, it was increadibly detailed with in depth pictorials(trying to make a new word).

It took me about an hour to read through, but man what an hour!

Thanks again for all the effort you put into that Autobot032!

SO GRATEFUL for a trailhead on this figure. In addition to this excellent resource for all you lucky new MP-05 owners this holiday, there are several good videos on youtube concerning the figure. I know I'll be watching them all before I even attempt the transformation.

Breathe... Softly softly catchy monkey...

No problem, I apologize for being so long winded. It's a habit I'm really trying to break, but so far...hasn't worked.

My teachers hated me for it. heh.

Agreed, most people sum up to quick and leave out to many details.

I remember I had a couple diferences, but realy you should drop a link to your thread in the reveiw section of the toy Gallery :grin:
