Transformers reviews for anybody with a short attention span. Jump cuts and wordplay and grindcore, oh my. "You consistently blur the line between 'toy reviewer' and 'world's most niche comedian' and I'm forever grateful." - Eric Wiebe
16:21 Thew: F this thing *orders the death of Trail "I can't believe it's not" Cutter* 16:25 Trail "I can't believe it's not" Cutter: Yeah, F YOU TOO! *fly kicks Thew's camera with its final strength*
Funny how haloween has become my holiday of hope. "Malicious Fairies who steal people away, monsters who infect and make mortals other monsters, wild curses and the rising of the dead? Sweeeeeeet. That sounds awesome."
My headcanon on this bot is that this is a post war optimus who has decided to tour our world at a slow pace, simply taking in and appreciating the beauty of the planet he fought so hard to protect. One highway at a time.
The Titans Return figure can remove the "turbine" from the middle and expose a port that his Titan Master can plug into for the flying-with-head-up mode. It id unbearably stupid.
I'm sure everyone's seen The Basics on Rock Lords recently, but apparently it wasn't even an original idea at the time. Loads of transforming robot toys were doing rocks and Gobots was just jumping in on the popularity. They were extremely popular for the first year or so, fell off, and it was a decade later when everyone started making fun of the idea.
Here's something interesting the alternate mode for energon rodimus is inspired by a jet truck literally called shockwave Unfortunately shockwave the truck was destroyed years back in an accident
Great video, this was my childhood Optimus Prime and one day on a car ride at a stoplight the figure slid off of my seat and underneath the front seat of the car and I never saw it again. I looked for it hundreds of times but I never found it somehow. Always thought it was an underrated Optimus figure
Just wait until we get a release date for Studio Series Commander Class ‘86 movie Optimus, Thew. Your inner childhood self is gonna be screaming and crying with joy.
I mean, "betrayed" is a strong word lol. It's been a good five years and the new toy DOES look nice. I just don't think I wanna drop commander class money on another toy of the same guy that doesn't even have a super mode or anything
@toygrind yeah... But it looks damn good🤩... I think I need to see how much of the truck facade ends up in the backpack. I love this Earth rise and uh, your particular video on it is fantastic and I'm glad you're still in the game. I love watching your stuff
Oddly enough, I think the classic Nissan Fairlady Z transformer-body, like Prowl or Bluestreak, could be a compromise between a capable transformer design and the need to put an obvious pair of big headlights on a fembot. For real though, I like this figure. Something about the big fans on the shoulders really make Nautica stand out.
Here me out... we need a voyager class unicron, a unicron merch that wouldnt break the bank (and toy shelf) and just be a nice little fiddle toy, how to make voyager into a ball without going nuts on parts count? No clue! (maybe two folding hemispheres that sit on his back similar to Armada), my dumb idea is to give him an attack helicopter alt mode where the rotors fold to become his wings and he comes with a Dark starsaber to wield as well as lots of hidden molded missiles in a chest cavity because reasons. I guess consider it a continuation of the Cybertron thing.
Honestly I never understood the hate this figure got. It's a pretty good incarnation of g1 prime. Although I could be biased because it was my first g1 prime. (Grew up on Armada)
My great great aunt and uncle bought me this toy in 2013, I loved it so much and i broke it and had to throw it away. I’m definitely going to have to buy another one now that I’m getting back into transformers!
This may not be a great figure, but the version of this that came in the two pack with Megatron was my first Prime and will always be my favorite Prime
I picked this up secondhand as an adult collector and I loved it. Not the gimmick, that was shite. But for posing dramatically? Slag, yeah! He felt like he stepped off the screen compared with my G1 Optimus. He was the centrepiece of my display. That was until Masterpiece took me. God that truck mode is vile.
the regular version was one of my first transformers, got him with the movie fast action battler. i still love this fugure tho, and if they changed him up make the thighs collapse and replaced the spinny gimmick with a swivel he would be almost perfect.
