They designed Bumblebee that way because they wanted to make him look chubby and baby-like in order to emphasize the kiddy features in him. It's why he got so much air time and hung out with Spike a lot. They wanted the audience to identify with Bumblebee the most out of all the other Autobots.
I agree with the entire list besides long haul. I like how big he is and his head looks very cool. I would have him in good tier but yeah. Soundwave does have the best design.
I just got mine a couple weeks ago, and I love him! Definitely worth the wait. I’ve never been so excited to collecting minibots! I like your bumblebee, is that the Netflix one?
thundercracker is the best decepticon character that hasn't been covered as much in the series as in the comics. blue color, the color of the sky is enough for him to be great, or at least good. but for me he is superior. thundercracker was a favorite in our society... 😊but everyone has their own opinion.
There are much better drawings of these characters. Given the right artist all these designs are superior. G1 characters are some of the most unique and visually stunning characters ever. These characters have been with me for 46 years and because of their designs I'll always be obsessed with them. Enjoyed your video brother
i also love the g1 designs they are some of the most unique in the series but this was ranking them based on how they looked in the g1 show using the show models
I was never a fan of those show models. When I picture the transformer I always go by how the movie had them look. But I understand why you ranked them how you did. Again great video
I've always wondered what G1 Optimus Prime would look like with modern robot mode articulation, and this figure has made that dream become reality. :D I wonder if we will ever get a missing link Megatron figure?
A thing about Optimus' design that really works is how they were able to incorporate the front of his alt mode into an abstract torso design. The windows give the illusion of muscular pecs and the grill resembles washboard abs. It makes him look like the strong warrior that he is without being too distracting as an integral piece of alt mode 'kibble' It works alot better than Ratchet's and Ironhides where their alt mode window sections jut out from their chests awkardly.
Honestly I think Bumblebee is the best Animated figure so far. If Hasbro insists on this geewunnification crap then Prowl is way too geewunned, Prime isn't that bad but something about him is just off to me, but Bumblebee's design is near perfect. The only thing I don't like is the clear plastic chest and back with the hinges and being so important for transformation, its why I call him brittlebee. I really hope they start doing Decepticons though, cause I feel like their designs will fit the geewunnification better than the Autobots, so long as they're done as well as Bumblebee's design was.
🤩🎬GREAT VIDEO🎬🤩 I’m glad I found your channel & I MOST DEFINITELY look forward to seeing MORE of your videos🔔 📺 I do mostly TRANSFORMER Stop Motion 🎬📸🎞️ I hope you enjoy my animation‼️ 11:34
i also wish for them but with lockdown i think the best we are gonna get will be the star seekers version that's coming out, though i do hope we get a accurate animated lockdown
@@Ultra_Blast To the designers' credit, they never referred to Star Seekers Lockdown as the one from Animated, so a potential Animated Universe Lockdown could be in the cards.
The worst think about the mini bot missing link figures is they won’t make more if these don’t sell well. The fate of the line is dependent on sales of figures the most don’t want.
Reason why the color looks weord is cause they looked at the gameplay version and that was the actual color hes more new retool like he does not have the missing heels and may have wrist bend cause barrica can barley bend his wrist cause of the transformation
10:17 Those are the stereo microphones actually - similar to Sony TCS-310. Not sure whether in cartoon those were meant to be speakers though. The Takara version came with stereo headphones.
I know your Australian but why are you stretching out everything you say like a excited Game Show Host but also almost totally monotone. Not trying to be mean, criticism can be good, I got to say it turned me off the video right away.
I've never really been good at speaking so i didn't realize i was coming a cross like a monotone game show host, ill try to improve the way i present my videos, thank you for your criticism, also it could be because im bad at reading off of scripts
Great review Ultra Blast!!! I'm glad the debate of who is Rumble and who is Frenzy has finally been settled. lol Fingers crossed that we get a Buzzsaw figure. Keep on being amazing.
