I Didn’t Think These Could Get Any WORSE |  

I can’t wait for skids and mudflap to get executed by transit in Transformers: Unicron goes to Starbucks 2099

DOTM Mudflap was my childhood holy grail. I was falling behind in school and my reading teach told me hed buy a transformer if I improved my grades, It might not not be a good toy but it meant more to me then anything else at the time.

I can easily say that as someone who had mudflap, That toy was extremely fiddly

The human alliance of the rotf designs are the closest we’ll get to mpm figures of these guys, and mudflap is apparently super rare/expensive too

I honestly think that the skids and mudflap toys are pretty good for what they are trying to replicate

For years I thought that the mudflap arm poping off problem was a thing of my copy. Glad to know there's a fix for that.

Despite all the controversy surounding them i still have hopes we'll get them in SS eventually. As a kid i genuinelly loved them- mainly due to the fact they actually had screentime as opposed to most other bayformers, but i did love them nonetheless. Especially Mudflap in ROTF, i really love his altmode, and his bot mode design is much better than Skids' in my opinion. And i do love their icecream truck appearance

I remember owning both of these at one point, and they aren't great I remember my skids right arm would always fall off the ball joint and as for mudflap the I hated the transformation, but I will always treasure the dark of the moon toyline as my favorite toy line even if they had some flops in the line

despite what people said in a poll, Bay completely disagreed and had them killed off in the dark of the moon prequel story where shockwave attacked and killed off a good deal of the autobots including arcee and her sisters or clones whatever you want to call them and skids and mudflap were among them as well. Bay said their dialouge in Revenge was very off the wall racist and apparently even paramount and spielberg were on that same page. them being in dark of the moon was a mistake bay said was too late to correct after things were already done.

Actually, if you look at reviews and pictures from the time. The "Yellowing" on Mudflap isn't actually yellowing, it's just the color of the plastic they chose for some reason

6:39 To quote PerspectiveEnd for this part (and modify said quote): "There's no way they were like, 'Yeah, live with the kibble on the backs of the legs, and then have the knee joints go-' THE WRONG DIRECTION!" "...because of his insubstantial knees, and their limited posing that only works THE WRONG WAY!" "And knees that ONLY BEND THE WRONG WAY!"

The funny thing was, when the human alliance toys were released, their versions were very highly sought after.

Shame that Skids and Mudflap were removed from Dark of the Moon. These new color schemes look awesome as hell.

I feel like Skids and Mudflap would have been not hated as much in DOTM if they were kept, but I agree with them being removed from the film. Not being allowed to have studio series is ridiculous because all they need to do is bite the bullet, but they are unwilling to. For good reason, but I just wish they would.

I got these figures for two reasons 1: because I lost the original ROTF versions 2: my mom actually likes the Twins and begged me to add them to my collection

If someone made new heads for these, I could pretend they're entirely new characters... But no one has, and i can't, so that sucks Also, incorrect- Crankcase is the best Legacy Skids anything

I remember I was at the store ready to buy a transformer, and I saw Skid’s head in the window and somehow that was an ultimate deciding factor to get Mechtech Ratchet. It was probably a good thing I picked Ratchet though

I thought you said you weren't getting these

Bro the twins in the thumbnail look like they boutta say “instead of transforming you should go transform some bitches”

I actually keep my Dotm skids feet untransformed and backwards so they can properly bend and just dont look clownish, and never bothered to get a DOTM mudflap because the Tuner mudflap is honesty the perfect one i need. I cannot imagine how much copium people are dosing, but im so in love with Skids and Mudflap UPDATE: I just got Dotm Mudflap and I love how goofy he is

I have a lot of nostalgia for the dotm mudflap toy because it was one of my first transformers I ever got and I lost him somewhere at sometime when I was to young to remember anything and for the sake of nostalgia I look on eBay for him every now and again and I want your advice on if i should get it

I think they are pretty good and cute! The colour scheme is matching the dark theme. I put them together with the black bumblebee in my shelf. Orange/Yellow/Green

i own these there really not that bad the head sculpt is nice and the car modes are pretty smooth and its simple to transform i like it

Yo congrats on 100k

I got rid of my ROTF skids and mudflap because I hated those characters so much. Now they are the only ones from the movies I don’t have and I need everyone. The toys weren’t that bad and now I’m gonna have to try and get them again.

I had Mudflag, and he cut my foot open 👍

100K!!!! Nice man!!!!

Love that you went full sentinel prime on them

Cool to see that deleted scene of their deaths 😉

Well now you've brought it up. Gotta do human alliance skids & mudflap. Might as well knock out a few other (assuming better?) human alliance guys while you're at it, it's a cool toyline.

Hey@thattoyguy can you do a review of Human Alliance Skids and Mudflap?

I have that Mudflap toy and just now I don’t know how but i successfully closed the door complétant one one side! No gap!

i have the rotf mudflap and i actually really like that figure. the alt mode is ON POINT, nice and intricate transformation, and it results in an accurate enough robot mode!

I owned mudflap years ago, he was missing his doors and the hood of the car though as I got him used, and honestly I really loved him. He was weird and ugly but I enjoyed that about him. I don't know the asymmetry just appeals to me I guess? Again, I don't know, I just really like how he looks.

10:10 bro can still tell Leo to get a haircut in vehicle mode.

I have the mudflaps that the arms pop off, they simply put the mushrooms pegs on the outside so when you lift them up you also lift the pegs. I hate that so much.

And we know that hasbro isn’t gonna do studio series for skids and mudflap cause hasbro have been blocking people on instagram people asking if they are gonna be making studio series

Where do you get your figures from? Great video!

That Mudflap was my very first Transformers figure, and as I said on the other Skids and Mudflap video; Nothing will stop me from reuniting with my boy Mudflap!! The possible yellowing will be an issue...

That’s the first time I’ve seen Optimus prime shoot skids and mudflap

I just bought the legends/cyberverse ones to scale with my studio series toys

i had the mud flap as a kid and hated it, right up there with prime rid airachnid

Weirdly Skids and Mudflap almost have G1 proportioned designs. Intentionally or not they're the closest to G1 styled designs in the Bayverse.

You know its a good day when he uploads

Is there a spark model?

As an old f*rt, who grew up with G1 Transformers and the Cartoon, etc, etc, etc... I mostly forgave Michael Bay for the first TF Movie, because it was the first time we'd ever seen those beloved little robots in live-action, even if they weren't modelled correctly, and the alt modes and transformations were all wrong, but ROTF, DOTM and TLK were just like, WTF dude!?! All I can say is, thank GOD for THAT Cybertron scene in Bumblebee and Unicron in Rise of the Beasts!

1:41 Bluestreak blows them out of the water just by standing there

When I played with the skids i would always imagine him getting blown up by my other cooler figures and falling out of buildings

I had these toys I got them on eBay and they cost like 16 dollars together witch was a decent price for both up them together but after I Bought them I destroyed them both

I bought these two recently, not because I really wanted them, but because I want a dotm twins representation

Reminds me of the little bionical guys because of the oversized arms and feet

I had both of these guys I kinda wanna get em again just for Nostalgia

wait he didn't show us if they actually scale with masterpiece, if they do then that's a huge W

Devastator chew toys

Again a reminder in the tie-in comic for dark of the moon sentani prime kills the twins and ironhide with the rust gun after he betrays the autobots after making a deal with megatron.

I actually want both of these characters as toys

Friendly reminder that we almost had three of these guys during the production of ROTF

If there’s a hinge in the middle of a bot I somehow break it. I have these two and they aren’t exceptions.

I will continue to recommend reading the IDW movie stuff with the movie adaptations. That also follows the book that you guy mentioned. Skids and mudflap are just idiots in the background. Still in the scenes they’re meant for, but but no racial overtones. As always great video my man.

Can you fit them a mpm figure

Woah Skids has the new air jordans!

*SKIDS GOT DA BIG SHOE BIG SHOE*

I got Mudflap on my 12th birthday and Skids I got after I saw Real Steal in Theaters.

I got mudflap as a return gift from a birthday

Holy carp the gigantic doofy feet on skids! You could hold up a titan class figure with thoes things!

Good analysis in the beganing of the vid

The legion clas figures of these two are genuinely their best toys imo. They’re very charming

I just bought a Chevy spark and I need one of these

Looks way better than the ROTF deluxes at least.

Will you be ordering MetaGate's Shatter? They just released the first colored photos of her. So glad the new pics showed she can stand on her own.

I hope they make a studio series of these guys

I own these two and I have almost no issues other than Mudflaps wings are loose.

Where are their weapons? Where they purchased from eBay or a junk lot that didn't have their weapons either way?

The best characters in the franchise

I actually want these can someone tell me where I can find them for the cheapest?

I used to have that Skids, but one day I got angry and threw it on the floor, so my parents came and threw it in the garbage

i have these,i got them years ago,great toys,why all the hate towards them? what did they do wrong?

I want them but can’t find them at a good price

they look like they have drip shoes on

They actually looks like fun little car-formers... If it wasn't for those horrendous head sculpts and the obvious source material.

I got DotM Mudflap at some point for some reason I don't remember why, and I genuinely kinda hate the figure. It's just a mess. Car mode is genuinely pretty good once you get it all stuck together, but the transformation and robot mode just suck so much.

my friend has the mudflap and it is yellowing EVERYWERE!!!!

The closest we're getting to an SS scale twins is the legends class figures from rotf and dotm

Funny enough, 2 days ago my dad walks in and we randomly brought up these 2 in a conversation. He then asked why tf these lads weren't in the 3rd movie. I regret telling him as I think it ruined his day... Anyways yea that ain't yellowing plastic, it's just the way it is.

i just like the idea of: "Sentinel killed the Twins" my own head cannon

0:17 reloading sounds*

I got the Skids figure when I was very young and it was new. I got it from a store and the arms kept falling off, got a refund, bought a new one, ars fell off again and I just kept it. It's a piece of shit but unfortunately I came to be attached to it and couldn't bring myself to getting rid of it. But yeah the arms do that no matter how new or old.

Fun fact, mudflap isn’t yellowing. That’s just how the plastic was when they came out. I had them when they came out and mudflaps biceps are just different colors for no reason.

You got ss 102 yet if not I might be able to get you one for a little more than retail

I like skids and mudflap . Is that a problem!?

Second comment, but also, for me one of each deluxe was more expensive than the other. ROTF Skids was cheap, but ROTF Mudflap was expensive. By contrast, DOTM Mudflap was cheap, but DOTM Skids was expensive. On terms of the ice-cream truck, I found one with stickers on that make them screen-accurate.

I actually have dotm mud flap. He is broken though

Went ahead and clicked the like button as soon as you shot them.

I loved those characters

Skids in vehicle mode is still bugging me. 😂

Not a transformer comment BUT I thought you said it was hard to pull back the spring on the nerf gun. Go pick up a nerf rival blaster. The Optimus blaster is the rookie numbers of strength. Nerf rival fires rounds up to 90-100 fps. Muzzle velocity not constantly cause that would be scary.

Did you or did you not buy the Nerf Roblox I Love Bees blaster? 🤨

In the comic adaptation, these goons were killed off by Sentinel. OH HOW I WISH THAT MADE THE FILM. I could watch that on loop, watching them rust away. Instead of Ironhide.

I understand now

Man skids can not catch a brake just anyone with the name skids is doomed for something horrible
