Fans Toys RECORDER (Blaster) : EmGo's Transformers Reviews N' Stuff 

Every time I see rewind I just picture cromedome frantically looking for him

Kudos to this asymmetrical design. This transformation was a surprise.

If I'd only seen this version, I would have thought he was the definitive Blaster, but then seeing the Fantasy Club one next to him, he instantly looked a lot less appealing. Funny how that works sometimes, lol

oh wow... that transformation escalated really quick lol

What a blast! He looks great just want to see him grappling Mr Grimlock

I really quite enjoy this guy's transformation, especially the way it slides the chest over for a detail absolutely no other post G1 toy gets right.

I'm amazed nobody had made a Blaster and/or Soundwave with real functionality. Making them bluetooth speakers should be doable.

The transformation isn't as bad as the Fans Toys official video made it look, but I don't think this is enough to replace my DS not Blaster. It looks toon accurate to a fault on those derpy looking shoulders and I'm just not a fan of that head sculpt. Great review though.

That G1 arm was so floppy

That transformation seems needlessly complicated in sections (specifically the feet). I realise that transforming into a box is probably going to involve flipping out some panels (though some older Soundwaves seem to avoid this), but that heel spur transformation is just taking the mickey. No need for it to have so many small pieces and hinges.

Fast Forward(Rewind) I felt was far superior to their Frenzy and Rumble. I have KFC’s, Deformation Space, and This one. I have to say they all have qualities that I appreciate! I can’t wait for the other MMC tapes though. Great Review as always Emgo!!! Thanks man keep up the good work!😊

Blaster : Hey, Perceptor, what's shaking? Other than this fortress? Perceptor : Blaster, Ultra Magnus sent orders to contact Optimus Prime on Moon Base One! Blaster : All right! Cover your receptors, Perceptor! [He transforms into a ghetto blaster and broadcasts the message] Blaster : Optimus Prime, do you read me? The Decepticons are blitzing Autobot City, we're really taking a pounding. Don't know how much longer we can hold out

Blaster looks good

Holy crap, the engineering on that seems overly complicated.😮

These look really cool. I like the new transformation engineering.

Blaster to me has always looked like he's wearing a red leotard over short shorts, and leg & arm warmers.

Hasbro: What’s hard engineering? Siege: … Earthrise: … Kingdom: … Legacy: … Titans return: … Combiner wars: … G1: WHAT EVEN IS THAT

Rewind the bot with the golden gun

The tape deck mode's tape compartment being off-center is driving my brain nuts!! Great video as always, EmGo! Thank you!

Soundwave, perceptor, n him are my favorite g1 characters

My rewind only came with one gun…. I’ve seen this with other reviews. What the heck?

The asymmetry in alt mode drives me nuts, but it seems to be good quality overall.

Great review, great video, great figure!!!

This is looks good to me. Hopefully, when I can get the money, I can buy it. Also, great video, Emgo! Keep up the great work!

The fact that the tape area isnt dead centre is driving me up the wall, and I can’t not look at it

I like the upper body transformation but the alt mode kills it for me because It tries to mimic the g1 toy boom box mode but since I can still see the core block, I’m hurting while looking at it. Still good review.

Wow that back view of Fast Forward is as hollow as hasbro’s intentions on quality.

I finally fell in cartoon-accuracy vibe, but I'll be keeping my toy-accuracy era MPs anyway because they were already awesome. That said, though I really love my KFC non-Blaster, it has gone back to his box and Recorder is now in the shelf. I really hate FT transformations but that's the price you have to pay for accuracy, and I really don't transform my MPs so I cannot care less. Fast Forward will stay in the box, KFC's will still hold the seat until MMC releases a non-Rewind. My biggest issue with this figure is the lack of functional heels, which is really annoying in such a solid mold.

If that G1 toy head just looked a little more like his Marvel comic head I'd have ordered this guy Day 1, because Marvel Blaster > Cartoon Blaster. Maybe a 3P upgrade kit will make my dreams of an MP Marvel comic Blaster come true...

HA Id get this JUST for the Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo ref

I thought exactly the same thing about the shoulders when I first got mine. I’ve no problem at all with the proportions, I think it looks incredibly toon! But man if those shoulders were up just 2mm even, it might e made all the difference.

Though everything closes up good, it SO much of a hassle. They should've thought more about that.

I completely forgor about this release lmao

Is it blush comparable though? G1 blasters left arm was shaking a bit in the comparison. It seems like the fan toys version of the toys are better than some of the newer mainline toys because my brother has kingdom blaster and this is better in my opinion THE BOOMBOX MODE IS SO GOOD

I can only think of James Bond with Rewind purely because of the golden gun

Can we get our freakin' geek to 1m subs plz? He's earned it with all of these solid reviews.

Totally fine with the over complicated-ness lol Just treat it as a TF rubik kube or puzzle 😅

Emgo do you think its worth replacing DS for this figure?

23:25 g1 toy has the buttons centered FT moved the buttons with the door off center. Imo make box mode look wierd. I think DS just looks better.

Something about the hip/waist sculpt really doesnt work for me. He looks like he's wearing a leotard. Its totally cartoon-accurate its just a weird look to begin with

So Emgo, what’s your preferred MP blaster?

cool

So can he hold all 4 tapes or just 3?

I’ve just started getting some third party figures, got two Newage figure and they’re great but what is the best place to third party auto bot/deception sticker/labels?

Is the head armature plastic or metal?

Not enough ratchets 😢

More Mascot reviews please

Wheres the autobot logo on his chest?

What did Maskot say at the beginning?

Lol the hasbro version is rewind and this version is fast forward the opposites

Does anyone have website suggestions to get third party/masterpiece transformers in the UK as it costs alot of money to get them from BBTS Please if anyone could lmk 🙏🙏

Why is the cassette section off center?

Oooogly

Fast fooorward Leonardo Donatello Fast fooorward Raphael and Michelangelo Teenage mutant ninja turtle fast forward Teenage mutant ninja turtle Faaast forward

Hmmm. 10000% increased complexity of Legacy Blaster for 25% increased looks of Legacy Blaster. Not made for me.

Hi

The fact fans toys has hollow spaces regardless of the figure it is on, is why I’m glad I stopped collecting when I did.

Ds02 is better 😂✌🏻

I like Fanstoys but their tapes are terrible.

What "Soundwave" decal is that on his chest? I got both he and Blaster coming tomorrow and I want that badly!
