Cool. Yeah, the paint scuffing - its too limited I think. It doesn't look natural or weathered or like he's been through the shit, it looks like an after thought. If they wanted to do that they should have done it all over the figure I think, not just certain areas - the back end looks fairly pristine for example, at least in comparison. It works better for Springer, but again - its too limited I think. Also, its about more than paint - to pull this kind of thing off well I think you have to have texturing of the plastic, maybe melting or deforming it slightly to indicate that he's been around for a while and has seen some things. The sides of the alt mode look a little bare as well - the numbers really help I think. I have the generations version of the character which is very cool, even if the scale is a little weird and the exhaust pipe accessories are a bit odd (I think they're meant to be spanners or something). Cool figure overall though, and nice video. :)

The one with Tracks and Blast I recall is the episode at Dancitron. That was a fun watch. Anyway, onto the figure itself. A classic G1 figure. I like it. There are things I would change, but those are nitpick things. Plus, it is a G1 figure. Those are hard to come by regardless of quality, so you tend to let certain things go on that alone. Sweet review. Keep up the awesome.

It could use some work, but I do like this figure quite a bit. I think the updated version is a pretty well done, all things considered. And hey. Targertmasters are normally a plus, so there is that too. Sweet review. Keep up the awesome. :)

This is some good tunage. Something you can drive to. I mean that is a good way. It has a vibe, ya know? Keep up the awesome. 🙂

Has flashbacks to The Rude Awakening of Optimus Prime. It's a decent figure like the last one, but at least there is more to this based on name value. I guess it could be a fun little desk bot. Anyway, sweet review. Keep up the awesome. :)

Life is a freeway! I wanna ride it....Never, actually. It is a decent figure, but nothing I would get all gaga for other anything other than nostilgia reasons. Sweet review. Keep up the awesome. 🙂

The battle damage done on these figures is very hit and miss, it looks great on some, and rubbish on this one and some others. That being said, it's a decent mold and has some great sculpting! I'm glad I still own the MP version (and the Exhaust repaint/retool). Belated Merry Christmas, all the very best for 2025!

Great video. My thoughts about this figure remain the same since he came out - what is wheeljack recognisable for? Giant wings and a huge rocket launcher. Don't understand the miniature versions. Merry Christmas Gérard

Great video and Merry Christmas Wolfkang1

Epic!

Absolutely LOVE this bass heavy track. And the lyrics are great, I do enjoy a bit of vitriol. Superb.

Great intro for Hugh...I mean Dave lol, and no, you're not 14 but you act like you are lol. I really like the guard towers, those are a good idea :) The new school looks great, it'll be interesting to see what is different on the inside. Yup, raiding the radio station was definitely a bad idea, still funny though! Great stash near the end, great episode lads!

Though not a massive fan of the character, he was quite cool. How many more of the Mini-bots are left that could be upscaled like this? It would be cool to see Seaspray and Powerglide get updated figures. The parrot being added is a really daft thing to add to the box for the price point, but at the same time it is a nice deep cut for fans of the G1 cartoon. I must admit, I'm not keen on those gaps between his arms and the seats, especially when looking down through top early in the video. That being said, the weapon storage for this figure is pure genius, and it's not used in an attack mode, which considering Beachcomber was basically a pacifist, makes sense lol. And I like that the rollcage is now part of the transformation, and not just sitting on the back like the G1 version, they almost look like jet exhausts/a small jet pack or something? Speaking of weird accessories for future toys/minibots, they could give Powerglide Astoria from the cartoon, and Alana for Seaspray? Great review :D

👍👏

Very cool, I keep meaning to get hold of this guy. He's a brilliant rescale and I like the parrot! I have Huffer, with the gun that comes apart, and also Brawn from the Bumblebee movie (yes, I have seen his transformation into a toilet, lol)! Hope all is well, man - Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah and see you in the next one. :)

I really enjoy the way the guitar(s?) are being played in this one, and just the general vibe and the title, kudos!

Impressive.

Gosh! I remember this one, and it's another track that would have been great to hear fully mastered.

A great intro for Dave, a new series but a continuation of a previous insult, nice! Great haul that he got with his first use of a lockpick, that was lucky! The labels on the boxes look new, that's a fun and interesting visual change/update to this version of the game :) And Dave makes a very good point, it's a small change about where the characters look, but a long overdue one. You may get hit by Mallam's Mallet! That sounds dodgy on so many levels lol! Great episode lads!

I got this figure on pre-order, the altmode is near perfect (except where they've had to modify it to add the battery section) I don't mind the robot mode, the visor/sunglasses are a nice touch, but the waist tab not catching properly bothers me, as does the fact the arms/legs pop off fairly easily, so he's staying in altmode from now on, just waiting for my reprolabels from Toyhax to arrive, so I can hide the robot parts behind some stickers for the windows lol. Great to hear your enthusiasm and nostalgia for the TV series and the original car itself come through during this review btw :D It's a real shame they didn't use any voice clips from the series, that would have made the toy that much better. I know this is essentially supposed to be KITT as a Transformer/Cybertronian with his robot mode looking like Michael Knight, but part of me wishes they'd of found a way to include a mini figure of Michael to go with it/sit in side, or maybe made him a Headmaster unit? A retool/recolour as KARR would be cool, maybe with the robot mode looking like Garth Knight with the goatee? Or a recolour/retool of an Optimus as Goliath, and then one as the F.L.A.G. mobile command unit/headquarters, and Agent Knight/KITT could fit inside? Great review btw!

I have a friend in the States who owns a Trans Am - they're awesome. Ohhh, that skirt at the front is annoying! As far as effects go? For me the KITT voice is too iconic - can't have someone else doing it, I would have just had the lights going I think. For the robot mode, I wouldnt have gone with blue, I don't think - you only need the face for it to be Hasselhoff. Interesting that you mention the Dellorian though - its the only one I want really, so I'll pick it up one day if I can find it. Cool. :)

also, the waist tab thing doesnt go in on mine either, methinks it is an inherent design fault due to the swivels on the bonnet not having enough room to fully rotate downwards.

Weird thing, the super pursuit mode transformation in the TV series was completely unnecessary, as the trans-am had been wind tunnel tested up to 350 mph and was completely stable, so all those fins and air rams etc would only make the aerodynamics unstable.

why the game look so horribles?

A much more 'mellow' version - very much enjoyed.

Hard to believe it's Season 5/version 1.0 already! Doesn't seem that long ago you started off alll by yourself in an earlier version of Alpha, and now here we are. I really enjoyed the new intro sequence, and Dave's insulting intro. Liking his avatars hair colour, maybe he could replicate it in real life for charity, and though I've only played version 1.0 a bit, part of me likes the new outfits etc for characters, part of me misses the option of mixing and matching clothing and armour etc. I think the zombie's exploding head animation is new, or slightly upgraded from the last version of the game? All in all, I'd say you're both of to a reasonably good start for this series, well done lads!

Incredible.

Always great to hear a new/different take on a song, thanks for uploading this :)

Well, that certainly was a new start. lol Glad to see the boys back in town. Keep up the awesome. :)

Stereo-type? Very good, Sir. I’ve never owned a G1 Blaster tbh. I had reissue Twincast, but I just couldn’t get my head around the scale for display. Kingdom version is good enough for me 🙂

👍👏

Still easily one of my all time favourite G1 toys (and characters). Love the addition of the silver Autobot symbol, really makes him stand out and look unique comared to the others owned by other collectors. Not entirely sure what it is, but for some reason, I've never liked or understood why his gun has that massive hole/gap in the middle lol, or the scope for that matter, as Blaster isn't a weapons expert or sniper. I would love to have a Masterpiece version, maybe borrow some engineering from the Kingdom version (which I own, and think is a really well designed and well put together updated figure). I've never been a fan of the tabs as feet in robot mode, I wish they'd been designed differently in some way, maybe something on the back of the legs as well? And until I played closer attention to the instructions, I'd always left his arms extended and hadn't turned them around, they looked better that way to me than they did right next to his body and facing like you have in the review, I know better now lol. Awesome review, kudos to the subscriber who gifted you the replacement :)

Why is there a big hole in his gun? I'm just wondering if you can store it between the bits of the handle that fit together. Cool video, man. :)

Love the intro guitar riff at the start, reminded me a little of the Sweet Child O' Mine intro (same kind of vibe). This one comes as something very personal and cathartic, getting something out of your head sounds good.

😢

Tune!

Incredible.

My version of Legacy Needlenose is in storage (moving very soon), but there is definitely a knack to tabbing it together in jet mode. Someone at Hasbro really loved this toy, because this is a great homage. The head sculpt is amazing! Probably getting Quake now too! 😉

You need to check out -Prime vs Prime’s video on Legacy Needlenose to see how it all snaps together tightly in vehicle mode.

I've never owned either version, I like the altmode as it's a modified version of the F-16 Falcon, but I've always thought the name was a bit rubbish. I just looked on the TFWiki, you're right, they've recoloured and retooled it to be Windsweeper, which is a shame as that had a completely different aircraft altmode. This one isn't too bad, the headsculpt is really good. A shame about the targetmasters being almost exactly the same as the original, and not adding extra articulation, Hasbro/Takara being lazy/cutting costs yet again lol. I think I prefer where the nosecone/cockpit section went on the G1 version to this, but like you said, the attention to detail/sculpting on the Legacy version does look good. Great review!

I'm left feeling like I don't know what to feel, which is exactly why I count on you. So thanks, I think!

Yeah, I like this one a lot, man. Very cool. :)

Another demo that's an instant classic. Not sure how else to describe it, it kind of feels like it's a song that would be part of a soundtrack or playing inside a video game in the early 2000's.

Wow!

Wonderful demo, Wolfkang. Good work as always. Keep up the awesome. :)

Oh, this is one of my all times favourites just brilliant.

I have a soft spot for this figure. It was my first pre-order and I was so excited to get it. I feel like it was the first Orion Pax to have his own mold too. I need to check the feet on mine though! 😬

👍👏

A real fun song, sir. Groovy, yet filled with emotion. I likey. Keep up the awesome. :)

6 down and you are now free of this bearbale garbage. You did well. Keep up the awesome. :)
