Nerd. Filmmaker. Pretentious loser. Hey look, I just did one of those Twitter type list bios. That's awkward. Hi, I'm Wixhael. I don't know what to put here.
Hi, I'm here with news. Are you still on hunting? Just today checked local stores in russia, found magazine with cyberverse Blurr(the one from 8:40 ). But here's a thing - it's a unique one. As you know, there's war, so hasbro "officially" left russia, so this official figure doesn't have autobot insignia. If you want, I can buy it for you. It's same figure, with same colours, just without insignia
I just saw your video here and I'm going to throw a deaths head sized spanner into the works sorry but long before DH appeared in transformers uk marvel uk confirmed the transformation & G I Joe and the main marvel universe wear all in the 616 universe spider-men teamed up with gears in issue no 3 then the transformers had a encounter with ACTION FORCE the uk branch of G I JOE so all three are on earth 616
decided to revisit this after watching your review of marvel legends death's head, and while this is a *fantastic* (if unhinged) video, my favorite part was 4:27 when waltz no. 2 started playing as background music. one of my favorite memories of concert band was when our band teacher introduced us to waltz no. 2, both to play it, and also to teach us about the historical significance of the piece, why it was written, etc. it's unironically become one of my favorite pieces of music because of all this (i evem made a whole presentation on it in one of my classes last year), so hearing it here was just sorta the icing on the cake. it really adds to insanity unfolding! (13:38 is also really good lol. "scooby doo has crossed over with *star wars!*") ((and now, because of this whole side tangent i've gone off on, i wonder how death's head can be connected to soviet russia. hmm... much to think about))
Here's a quick update, for everyone tuning in now! First of all, the 3D card game has been fully found! Literally within a few weeks of uploading, DoctorFudgy reached out and offered to sell me his copy. Huge thanks to him! Second, the three magazine figures have also been located! Two of them were discovered by Silverfoil (whose video on the 3D card game I actually used for this video!), and the third one was found in Russia. I had to pay a guy on fiverr to act as a middleman but it was totally worth it! The only one left from the video that I haven't found is the Extreme Team Flip Racer. If anyone has any leads on that one, please reach out to me! Unfortunately, in the time since this video was uploaded, I've actually found out about a few MORE Blurrs that I hadn't even heard of when I first recorded this! The first is a variant of the Cyberverse Magazine toy, but with all the light blue plastic removed and replaced with the same dark blue as the main body. The head also seems to be slightly deformed on this version. The other "new" Blurr is actually from 1986; a rubber eraser packed in with milk caramel candies in japan. The eraser came in four different colors. I have the red and yellow variants, but I'm still looking for the green and blue versions if anyone has any leads on those! A huge thank you to everyone that's helped out or supported me on this crazy journey. Here's hoping these last few don't pose even more trouble than the rest of 'em have!
you, are the most talented, most interesting, most extraordinary person in the universe, and you are capable of amazing things, because you are the special, and so am I, and so is everyone. the seventh toa is made up, but it's also true. it's about all of us, and right now, it's about you, and you still, can change everything.
Maybe I missed it, but was it mentioned how the Doctor shrunk Death's Head down from Transformer size down to human size using the Master's Tissue Compression eliminator? That' s pretty important!
i found voriki from reviving bionicle (and got into bionicle itself because of that series!) and this video just made me love him more. ive always related to him specifically in reviving bionicle, he was such an intresting and relatable character, and as someone whos been on the internet since i was a kid his actual story, of being a leak and becoming a fanmade and fanloved character through the entire fanbase just feels... very nostalgic? i dont know, im rambling, but i enjoyed this video a lot, super good watch and made me enjoy a character i already loved, and understand the backstory on how he came to be better!! (also, im definitely going to do my part and create fanart of him as soon as i get the chance hehe)
I have been a Wheeljack fan since I were 7, Armada was my first exposure to TF and years later at 28 I now play Wheeljack in a stop Motion series called Transformers: EarthFall. Yes, his name is Downshift, also you missed Downshift from Cybertron
Whenever I'm sad, I come watch this video and it makes me feel a little better. I'm not even a bionicle fan (though I had a few as a kid), but because of how wholesome this all is. Also the memes are fire.
Actually, Go-Bots, which are now a part of Transformers, exist in the MCU. Drax's cousin was killed by a Go-Bot, as noted in the Guardians Of The Galaxy Holiday Special.
I will be totally honest… I did not know this character existed. But I independently thought up a lightning element bionicle (with a different color palette) and that just shows how awesome the fandom is.
I've seen this video multiple times and I always wondered which character was the one they were pointing to here 2:55 until I finally realized who it is, it's Roodaka, I'll be honest, I don't know why it took me so long to figure this out XD
There's a few crossovers you don't even mention in this video. I'm not going to touch on the broader connections because this comment would get WAY too long and it'd give me a head ache but I'll focus on the main 3 Death's Head directly appeared in. There's a rather famous comic book cover which featured a Black Suit Spider-man fighting Megatron. This was during the original Marvel run when they still owned the license for Transformers. There's also the Transformers Marvel crossover toy line which I personally don't really like. The Ironman toys from that run are pretty good and I could actually picture Tony making giant transforming mechas like that but all the other characters don't make any sense. They weirdly just transform into the character and not a robot which is another reason why Ironman kind of works since he kind of looks like a robot anyway. In fact in most continuities before the MCU version Ironman's identity wasn't known to the public and people actually were made to think that Ironman was a robot. Only members of the Avengers and those who worked closely with Tony like Rhodey were aware that there was actually a person in an armored suit, everyone else believed Ironman was an AI. Another reason the toys don't really work is that they usually pick the most random vehicles for them to transform into. There are a few exceptions but some of the most famous recognizable vehicles from Marvel comics still don't have Transformers toys but there are made up vehicles that have never been in any comic that are Transformers like Spider-man's car and Motorcycle... his famous vehicles in his colors that he has never used EVER! But at least there's a Transforming Venom toy to tie back to that comic of black suit Spider-man fighting Megatron. Too bad they didn't think to make it a Megatron wearing the Venom symbiote instead of a random car. You didn't mention the fact that Death's Head was originally Cybertronian sized and the Doctor actually shrunk him down to human size. The Doctor has actually been to Cybertron during that crossover and there are multiple other Doctor Who references in Transformers. Transformers have always been bigger in the inside, see The Transformers The Movie from 1986 specifically the scene where Astrotrain some how manages to fit the entire Decepticon army inside him including having enough room for the Constructicons to form Devastator despite the combiner being 6 times larger than Astrotrain's entire body. It's implied that Cybertron some how obtained this technology from the Doctor. It's never explicitly stated exactly how or why the exchange was made but this oddity of Tranformers being bigger on the inside like the TARDIS was not a thing in the comics until after the Doctor had appeared on Cybertron. There's a Decepticon in Transformers named Octus who literally transforms in a Dalek. There's a comic where Starscream seems to be picking up radio signals from U.N.I.T. talking about the Doctor. And certain transformers characters have used holomatter avatars to appear human appearing as different incarnations of the Doctor in their disguises. I could also mention while there's nothing officially stating these two are the same character... I believe that Quickshadow from Transformers Rescue Bots is literally River Song. Both characters are known to have multiple aliases. We never hear any examples of other aliases Quickshadow has used but it's mentioned in her first appearance that's not her real name and only Optimus is aware of her true identity. It's never shared what her actual name is. I think this could have been part of the deal made where the Doctor traded Time Lord Technology in exchange for an blank body that didn't have a spark. River Song's consciousness was saved as a digital copy in the Library so instead of having a Spark like other Transformers Quickshadow may very well have that Digital conciousness inside her and that's why her real name is such a guarded secret, because she's not a real cybertronian. Both characters are also portrayed by Alex Kingston. On and Clara Oswald was seen playing with a G1 Galvatron toy in the Crimson Horror but Doctor Who has also mentioned other franchises as fiction in that universe despite crossing over with them. Also the Doctor can travel between universes it's just very difficult. It's happened a few times but he does mention every time it's happened that the TARDIS isn't meant to be able to do that.
The worst part about Slicer in MtG is that his non-Shattered Glass universe card having Armada Wheeljack's colors is that it's completely unnecessary because another character who was in the recent Shattered Glass line; Flamewar, also has cards, but both her SG and normal cards look the exact same. They created a problem that didn't need to be there.
Awesome video I love the dedication, even though I wouldn't count any of these as real figures. Also, I wasn't assigned a character, I was assigned a TV show. I have the unique luck of absolutely loving transformers energon to death.
Another wrinkle that came out after this video: the GoBots are mentioned in The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special not as toys but as an alien species that killed Drax's cousin. Hasbro owns GoBots and they have been worked into the Transformers canon several times, sometimes as the predecessors to the Transformers.
11:09 damn, "юла" is actually not best place to find things. You know craigslist? Here in russia we got 2 sites with that concept, "юла" which is basically dead now, and avito. I think people in comments already helped you, but if not, i can help you find something in runet
So far, I haven't heard anything definitive from anyone about the magazine Blurrs. I'd definitely appreciate the help looking on Runet, thank you so much!
@@Wixhael hmm, i'm not sure about this, but i think all this figures is just 3rd party figures with hasbro license. Find "Transformers Cyberverse Magazine With Optimus Prime" from same lithuanian guy. I checked my local store, and right now they have not similar magazine(it's not even officially called transformers, because war in real world) with similar figure. I made photo of back of paper, it says it was produced by Quanzhou Liqi Plastic Productions Co., Ltd; liashenn Road Anping Industrial Zone, Anhai, Jinjiang City, Fujian, China. Was imported by same publisher(Издательство "Лев") that previously had license from Hasbro, but now doesn't Figure itself 99% identical, it's just doesn't have autobot logo
I feel you on so many levels. I have been collecting Brainstorm figures for a while now and i have two left. Both Exclusives in different parts of the world. A titan master only released in japan in a set and Sddc one locked behind a 4 pack
Thank you, I really appreciate it! I've had someone say they miiiiight be able to send me one at some point down the line, but no one's actually sent me anything yet or even definitively said they will send me one yet.
@@novaexplosion8257 Thank you! To be honest, I probably would if I knew how to do it. Maybe I'll give it a shot once I have 'em in-hand so I can take some photos, though!
