I agree with your comment about the G1 cartoon not having a standard look for each character. I can still remember times when Starscreams wing Decepticon logos were up one way in one scene, and upside down another. Sometimes the scenes were back to back, it looked quite weird having theme suddenly one way then the other.
First off I loved the 80's sitcom reference because I'm an old fart lol. Second amazing job with the transformation id of never figured it out. I like the look of this figure but I think I still prefer GUNDOG. However I won't know until I get Willis in hand. Thanks for the great review and keep up the great work.
Was waiting for the "whatchu talking bout Willis?" the whole review XP He looks interesting Body transformation does seem a bit annoying with the way the dash panel has to be but I can see it couldn't really be avoided too much it seems Or maybe it could if it's trimmed a bit
I haven't seen anyone elses review for this yet, but with all the schlock I read about the over engineering... I think it looked pretty straight forward. If anything it only seems difficult because of how a reviewer would be reaching around a camera. Thanks for the review!
this Hound's alt mode reminds me of that episode in Topgear when Richard Hammond was driving the Mercedes Benz 6x6 in Empty Quarter, Dubai when he spots a really huge Willys Jeep replica.
Emgo your a smart guy what do I do?????? My lifeis falling aapart and its one of those things that cant exactly fix.....I don't know what to do it's been like this since I was 8 and I almost lost faith in God above so many different times but it feels like no how much i believe in him or at least try to he hates me evenmore Looks what iI'm trying to say is what do I do ??????? I'm losing faith in everything and everyone aroundme YYou helped me once can you help me again???????? All i really is a prayer or some words of wisdom It's ok if you can't I absolutely understand
+beastlyhero100 Don't every lose faith. about a yr and a half ago I lost my ability to walk because I was stuck in a hospital bed with an autoimmune disease. I kept asking why I was being punished like this.
+Nick Gerke but last summer the doctors figured out what I had and now I'm on a tremendous healing path. God gave me the strength to persevere in that yr. And I am close to walking normally again. What I'm sayin is that God never gives us anything we can't handle and ur never alone
I really like Willis, I already have Gundog and like it a lot too. I might just get Willis also and display one in bot mode and the other in vehicle mode. Well done review as always.
awesome review emgo and I should've guessed that that would be ur cut-a-way gag. Willis should have come with a little dude to sit in the jeep for his hologram ;)
Great review. I think you got the transformation as close as to official as I've seen so far on RU-vid. Is there a purpose to those little black bars that swing out and sit on the outside of his ankles? Stability?
There are two slots at the rear of the toy that the windshield slots into that I believe you missed. (The windshield would be flat against the back like the cartoon character and the G1 toy.) The color's a bit off but overall I think it's nicely done! A lot better looking that what was available in the 80's. I love Hound, he's one of my favorites.
I can actually see that ending in an episode of gen 1 I would fit perfectly for hound and inferno. Just a thought love the reviews and the mascot, then endings and priceless, have you ever that about the best of intro's and endings series of video's.
The only issue I've noticed is the shoulder cannon is too close to his head. Other than that... It's nice. Despite the blinged out paint job. Which to me,is actually a nice touch.
Nice looking figure. Looks good in both modes. My only problem is it's greatly out of scale in alt mode. I don't know if you've ever seen an army jeep in person, but they are small. But that being said gundog is the same way.
Got mine of Ebay a few days ago. The quality is realy good for the most part. however i had a bit of bad luck while switching the heads. the peg snapped at the base while I was attaching the animation head. but as i said besides that it is very good.
very nice detail for hound... by the way emgo when ever you get products for test shots do you get to keep those toys they send you or do you return it with a note where there are problems and stuff that seems out of place?
it would be great if you could do side-by-side comparisons with third-party Transformers . like Willis vs gundog or Invisible vs. Sphinx excetera . Thanks I love your reviews and you definitely influence the purchases I make.
got min just a few days ago. its verry good for the most part but i had bit of bad luck. the Peg that the head is attached to snapped at the base while i was switching the the animation head. Happy new year to all of you.
emgo316 I love your reviews! I buy most of my takara masterpiece-third party figures based upon your reviews. But if u were to do masterpiece Voltron and the pre-order Voltron on BBTS, I would Love u even more, thx.
Hes not just a Jeep a la USA, he's a Mitsubishi "Willys" J59 Jeep. Only important to note for people who complain he's too massive alongside the car bots, when in fact the Mitsu was actually really big. Yeah he's still too big but not laughably so.
+youmongrel Unlike the cartoon and the comics, plastic doesn't shrink and grow when it's transformed. :p But yeah, I'd rather the bot mode scales than the jeep mode, but the jeep mode isn't too oversized. I saw a picture of a Spike figure (which fits in MP Optimus Prime) sitting in Willis and he was obviously way too small, but if you take the same figure, he is way too big to be sitting in MP Bumble Bee or MP Sideswipe.
+emgo316 STOP DOING GREAT REVIEWS AND WE WILL CHANGE OUR MINDS. :D We love you're videos. Keep up the awesome! When the hell are you getting that silver or gold play button. You should have like 12 by now. You should have had one after you found your nitch. I think I spelled that right.
too bad the cool black gun in alt mode doesn't turn into a gun in robot mode. they think of everything i'm surprised they didn't do something with that...
He, like Make toys Gundog in vehicle mode doesn't scale well, but in bot mode they scale great. TFC'S version does NOT scale well in either mode. I love my Gundog the only thing I want from this version is that grenade launcher, don't get me wrong if he was available with Gundog I might have gotten this guy instead.
Great review as always, Great reference to a clip from g1 cartoon with ending. Is your bumble having toilet issues as he was using part of his car bonnet as a nappy at 24:55.
