it looks good, but the nosecone gimmick isn't as refined and the hips need ratchet joints. Jet mode looks great, and I'd love to display it with a stand a la the MP Seekers.

He's pretty awesome overall. I don't mind his fusion cannon being huge in robot mode cause it's like a big melee shield and doesn't look so out of place next to Calibur Prime. But yeah that nosecone gimmick sucks. It pops open all through transformation. Ditto on the lack of hip ratchets. The minuses ain't dealbreakers for me like Leader Prime's truckpack and complete lack of paint though. I think he's one of the best looking figures from TLK, and his alt mode is just epic.

I'm surprised to see no comments about the GORILLA ARMS. I mean those things bothered the heck out of me. I have the figure and the gorilla arms are so annoying. if only. but then again you can't have everything in the world.

He has wrist and bicep swivel, so the gorilla arms only happen if you want them too.

To be fair, the choices boil down to "gorilla arms" or "giant gaping wrist-holes". The reason I haven't voiced much on Leader Megs is simply 'cause I don't own him, nor do I plan to - I'm extremely happy with the Voyager I have, and having seen the Leader once in person (at a Toys R Us), I just couldn't work myself up to paying Leader price for another TLK Megatron when the one I've got is all I could ever want

We know these have been out at certain e-tailers, but many are still searching for Voyagers Scorn and Nitro from Transformers: The Last Knight. Well these are now being found on Amazon and at Walmarts. Fellow Seibertronians Megatron Wolf and reluctantyouth found them in a Walmart in New York (state), and on Amazon, respectively, where Nitro is already sold out. Good luck with the hunt and let us know if you find them in the sightings section and sightings forum.

Thanks for the shout out. I hope some fellow Seibertronians were able to pick up Nitro before he sold out. I just checked Scorn and there are 14 in stock still. I'll wait for Scorn if I find him locally great.

I found these almost 2 weeks ago (on 9/2/17) at ShopKo so you might want to check there if you are looking for them.

Didn't realize no one had spotted these guys lol... I bought my Nitro at Walmart like two months ago. Scorn was there too...saw them at a Target couple days ago.
Guess I will pay more attention next time...although I would've started a hunt that apparently no one would find till now.

I already reported my sightings to the board, but I'll just reiterate it hear for convienance. I spotted both Nitro and Scorn in Mission, Tx at a Wal-Mart, so if you live there better check and see if they still have them or if they have more.

Friend of the site and Toy reviewer at large, Chuckdawg1999, has posted up a new video showing off the most recent, and final, wave of Transformers The Last Knight One Step Changers! The assortment, consisting of Scorn, Drift, and Cogman, had started to hit store shelves quite a while ago, but thanks to the notoriously infrequent distribution of the TLK toys, they're still quite hard to come by! Check out his review, and his opening thoughts, down below!

I hope that's not the only Cogman that will show up at my retailers. My closest Walmart is STILL stuck on wave 1! Unbelievable.

Thanks to a post over on Ozformers, we have confirmation that the Transformers The Last Knight Voyager Class Nitro and Scorn have been found in Australia! After being spotted at Walmart in the US just a little while ago, these hotly anticipated figures have popped up in a Target in Perth! Unfortunately, we don't have a picture of the figures on the shelves or of a receipt, but it does provide some hope to Australian collectors that these figures are starting to appear at retail!

I snagged voyager Nitro and Scorn in the good old OH today. Still no eyes on Sqweeks or Cogman. They got enough Slash and Grimlocks to make a new Jurassic Park flick though.

So... I think I got the last Nitro @ $29.99. But seriously... now they're jacked up to over $100 through 3rd party sellers??? Can people seriously just "buy" them from Amazon and then warehouse them for re-sell THROUGH amazon... That shit makes it WAY TOO EASY for scalpers.... and the way Distribution has been (at least in) California... it really makes the Hunt(ing) depressing.

Yeah, they had that problem with 25th anniversary Unicron. Amazon released that one in waves and it kind of helped with the scalping but it's still awful. I don't order 'formers through Amazon if I can help it, but that was an exclusive. I try to buy local, but if not I use BBTS, Robot Kingdom, or some of the other estores that are actually good to us fans. Too many insecticons in the market places, no what I'm sayin?
