So So So Much Junk In The Trunk…And Arms….And Legs | #transformers ROTF Deluxe Class Brawn
Yeah, revisiting this mould in 2022 made me realise how much of the TFWiki canonised a lot of attitudes I held a decade ago like "all shell forming is bad". Going back and assessing the Fallback version on his own terms I actually love this guy and now the Siege Seekers are one of my favourite moulds of all time.
Shell form is only a problem when the shell doesn't look part of the robot and is just packed on the back.
@@jkliao6486 even then, it's fine as long as the figure looks cool. Same with "backpacks" and "kibble". I honestly don't give a damn if my robot aliens that turn into vehicles and animals, don't have a clean humanoid design. Shit is supposed to be weird. Let it look weird.
@@dn22pkkdd476 then u are just better off buying an action figure and not a transformer. a transformer, with the verb itself as part of the name is meant to transform. you might be better suited for the highly articulated 3rd party sculptures
@@dn22pkkdd476 well yeah but if the robot on screen *doesn't* have a backpack full of kibble, it ruins the immersion
i thought shell forming is when you have like half of the car behind the character (as a shell basically) and 1/4th on each leg, as a solid piece. this model here has big panels but it's far from having like "whole front of the car used as a cape" :D personally i like when you see the car parts on the bot mode and can make out which car it is. what i don't like are fake parts like the fake front windows on the chest of the studio series primes or the g2 laser prime. or the fake hood on... i think it was hot rod
This reminds me of the GI Joe X Transformers that've been coming out.
But then again this doesn't have the collaboration price tag,
I think this mold would make a perfect autotrooper, it's just so stocky and battle ready
This guy and Fallback were my neoG1 representatives, a la ROTF Bludgeon, for so long. Glad we got updates but these guys still impress all these years later.
The design look really great. I am so lucky I find him in a comic book store. Yeah I agree with some parts in robot mode. But I like when the toy hide the guns duel to the transforming. When I put his guns away those things fold and hold the windows can hold the guns if anyone challenge him for a showdown. And I used that gun on his back as a shoulder gun again it look amazing.
Plus his head is kind of basic on his Robot In Disguise 2001 anime form which fit good.
I completely forgot I had this when I was younger. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
He has doom slayer helmet vibes
Nice jobby ref
I had have this guy since he was released and I still do but I lost one of his guns
I have this mold! It’s the sand coloured one though
I have the reveal the shield repaint of this.
You’re a brown truck?!
BRAWN. Such a good toy. I really think ROTF was a golden era for Transformers. So diverse and interesting transformations.
The HftD subline was the pinnacle, though. I remember when I got Battle Blade Bumblebee, I was like "they're never gonna top this thing at the retail level." And they haven't, either.🤷🏽♂️ Same with the retooled Leader class Battle Hook Optimus and the Voyager class Battle Blade Optimus.
Even though ROTF was written during that writers block which overall made the movies plot a little goofy, It's still my favorite Transformers movie. The toys that came from the movie were awesome and around two years ago I completed my SS Devastator and am currently working on getting the rest of the parts for the Devil Savior Devastator. If it wasn't for that movie I probably would have way more money to get other things though.
@@DragoonMS reveal the shield was where it was at
@@DragoonMS HFTD Bee's proportion is extremely odd, but I gotta admit it's easily one of the most enjoyable Bumblebee ever with all the gimmicks it comes with.
2009 was when I got into Transformers. The rotf line is so nostalgic for me. For that reason it is my favorite toy line in Transformers
This was one of my favorite toys from the Bayverse era. Just loved the articulation, the guns, and the digitigrade legs on it. Plus the head makes me think of the Steel Brigade from GI Joe.
This is definitely one of those figures where the kibble actually works in the figures favor and this mold looks so cool it's a shame I never managed to get a hold of one as a kid
The era where kibble was used aesthetically and not just a lazy backpack.
Love all your videos man... you are getting me through a really tough time in my life and I always a m so happy to see when you've posted a video. Thank you for all that you do all the hard work because you're making a real difference out here providing smiles to a guy who feels like the entire world is against me
how depressing
Tough and depressing time for us Chelsea fans
I love brawns design he looks so Badass
Yeah, we’ve had plenty of Optimus figures with two modes that look great, and a robot mode that poses well BUT CAN HIS TRUCK TRANSPORT SNACKS?!? I think not.
Also, my god, ROTF reinvented the small guys like Seaspray and Brawn to be such badass bruisers, and not in an obnoxious edgy way 😎.
I like to rotate the hood pieces 180 degrees on the ball joints and have the hood become the thight, gives him a more grounded look, also loving that g1 toy head
yeah that's what I do too. The hood covers the thighs in a way it kind of looks like a battle skirt for a samurai or a gundam
This was my favorite Transformer toy 11 years ago. I liked his truck mode! We still have all of our transformers toys.😁
I believe ROTF had the best toys.
he is one of the best figures for the older days of Transformers. it can be annoying.
I've seen a lot of people who look like that figure.
Roasted!
I think the Fallback recolor looks so much better to me,but that could also just be my repaint bias though;I usually just prefer repaints,such as:legacy Silverstreak, Siege Crosshairs, United Ricochet/Stepper, TFCC Barricade, Netflix Deep Cover, RoTF Smokescreen, HFTD Payload, g1 color RoTF Mixmaster, AoE Tracks (or Hotshot on the box for some reason), GS Exhaust, and Kingdom Shadow Panther.
Also yes,I did just list off a bunch of figures on my shelves.
Same 100%, there's just a unique charm repaints have. I have Siege Crosshairs, TFCC Runabout/ Runamuck, Universe Roadbuster, Allspark Big Daddy, Allspark Crankcase (my second favorite Transformer ever) and the Fallback repaint of the Brawn from this vid.
I even have a list of the best repaints I can think of
I've been tempted to get HotShot (2014 Tracks), but reports of the soft plastic cape breaking keep me away from him
I actually like his kibble, because it's just feels that brawn should have it, brawn had always been a tough bot and this kinda fits in, very armored and will makes you think to not mess around with this guy
Yo ,first again. And also youre doing a great job man. Love the vids
I wish mine hadn’t fallen apart. Still have a leg and a pistol, but the rest has disappeared at some point in the last 11 years. Such fond memories of this guy
bro got them junk in the trunk if you know what I mean😮💨😏
Maaan, that’s a great Transformer…
I have him and he is SO enjoyable to handle and, you know, play with.
I actually got hftd outback today for 3$ he’s in perfect condition but missing a few weapons.
Today I woke up in a different universe, I swear fallback should be called outback
That noise that you don't like reminds me of every time I try to click out legacy cosmos's head. That click freeking scares me
Big Loud Summer Blockbuster is so over the top it's below the bottom
I only got this because I'm a G1 kid and it was a desperate time for us, but honestly this was such a fun and satisfying way. I always felt the kibble was more like a cape or wings etc and was a style rather than a compromise.
I genuinely wish all the '84/85 characters got the same treatment.
You know. It makes sense Brawn would have issues with his shoulders, lol.
I used to starve myself in college saving up to buy these toys. somewhat pleasant memories. This was one of my most favorite figures in my collection. It's nice to remember all of it with this review. the hips really are loose.
This kinda looks like a cross between g1 Brawn and 2001 RID X-Brawn, with the bayverse aesthetic, and I LOVE IT!
I have both Transformers Revenge of the Fallen toys fallback and firetrap which if you look at the two of them fullback who is supposed to be out back and firetrap who is supposed to be Braun
My uncle got me this toy back in the day and I still love it. I'll admit the robot mode is kinda annoying and flimsy, but the truck mode is awesome.
TTG: This Thing Sucks
Also Me: *AAH!!!! IT'S SO AWESOME!!!! I WANT IT!!!!*
I really wanna get this guy someday, I think he, Outback, and Recon Ironhide would make a good commando team
1 of my fave bayverse type figures, the dual pistols, the predator shoulder cannon, i like it a lot
The hand guns when not in his hands, can be stored on the doors at the top using the flat parts, its not exactly the smartest of locations, but not much can be done about that, thou it would of been nicer if they could been stored in the panels on his legs, because I feel he could be a alterative verison of RID2001 X-Brawn, just going by his headscuplt, it looks very similar
i have always wanted this thing. i always thought it looked cool.
1:59 bro really turned Italian
I had him! I had his gun tho but lost it and well he was good except on my copy the balljoint on the truck with the headlights was loose
back when deluxe class alt modes couldnt be fully hidden in your hand
Back when you couldn't crumble them into pieces by closing that hand too. Nice hard plastic on this guy.
As a fellow brown person the little “Like me” bits always make me smile
Ended up selling mine when I was a bit short of cash. Kinda regret it, kinda don't. The legs was what annoyed me the most.
This is still one of my favorite movie figures to date. Always wanted one as a kid, might have to go and get one now.
Brawn was literally one of my favorite figures I ever had, I know he’s packed away somewhere but I gotta find him
needed more pics wuth studio series figs, especially Ironhide!
Nice
I had the good fortune to meet the designer of this toy Alex Kubalsky in a pub once. He talked about how he liked to make the transformations dynamic as well as both end modes. That's why the guns are in his hands. So he can be exploding out of his alt mode already fighting. I also showed him the alternative configuration of the leg kibble where you rotate it 180 and position it over the tops of the hips to form armour. It cleans up the legs a lot and fits like it was always supposed to go there. Better than the official configuration. I asked Alex if that was always the intention and Hasbro got the photos and instructions wrong. He said no, but it was actually better that way than how he designed it.
As much kibble it has, I can totally see this design in the movies
Actually doesnt look that bad, the palette, the articulation, the head sculp look neat.
I have the white repaint of this guy
Insert clear plastic is what we should have more often to prevent the figure from breaking. Just like we got with the Legacy Arcee figure. You'd expect the whole front of the motorcycle to be clear plastic due to it having a window there but no, it's a separate piece. Either that or just make the windows on a car just opaque plastic.
I remember looking at him on the catalog that came with the figures before I bought him. My sister was the one who pointed to Brawn and said he looked cool. I agreed and bought him then.
I love this figure so much! I miss the rotf line 😢
Has ro shouldnt really remake these obscure figures the movies line from 2007-2011 lines becuase i think hasbro can remake these figures in studio series Theres a lot of pontential
With the way his helmet looks, he gives me MASSIVE Doom Guy vibes (totally not from me watching a few Doom vids before this)
Don’t forget you can flip the headlights out on the arms and turn them into arm mountain machine guns. Or you can flip them all the way around onto the fists and make him have really tall boxing gloves
damn, he chonk (in vehicle mode). This figure is giving me confusing vibes. Looks alright, top poseability, top vehicle, but that shoulder omfg, and so much kibble
3:26 sent shivers down my spine, I thought it was going to break on the spot
I inexplicably have this guy's legs, just the legs, not a trace of the rest of him.
[Dear God why is talk to text so temperamental lately? For that single line above I had to restart dictation 4 times because it kept giving up.]
Even though I just have the legs I have figured out my preferred transformation.
Bumper halves with the flat side facing up, with the thigh panels flipped 180 so the windshield overlaps the wheel, and the strut compressed against the thigh so the curved edge of the hood has something resembling cohesion with the rest of the leg
still have mine form the rotf toy line and it still holds up today definitely a worthy pick up if you can get him at a good price and rotf Brawn is one of many favorite not cannon movie figures the others include
Wreckage
Breakaway
Dune runner
Backfire
Hailstorm
just to name of few .
I hope that surprise on the other shoulder squeak was a joke BC mine always does that. And somehow he’s probably one of my most intact figures from the time… funny.
Question power of the primes moonracer. She's good. But the legs are so unsupported. And she's alot of backpack
If this guy gets a rework will get it. Its actually awesome
I was thinking of getting this figure back then but when I found out he's a shellformer I skipped it (wasn't able to find one anyway) also I know ankles weren't a thing back then but how does this figure hold up or stand without ankle pivots?
He is pretty much AOE crosshair but better… duel guns, hip skirts and green and just like crosshair I’m betting he’s a sharp shooter
It could be worse...could have back kibble like the new Bumblebee/G.I. Joe A.W.E Steiker
lol the legs on mine popped off a lot, something about the angle and proportions just makes them easy to leverage I think. Classic movie fig though, pairs great with Dune Runner from the line too. I turned the hood pieces around to cover the thighs as makeshift hip guards.
You have gotten me into collecting Transformers now I brought my first transformation in over 10 years now o got the legacy knock out since I like him in prime but I got into prime 3-4 years ago so I miss the original set of prime toys.
I had a few old movie and Generations toys who made such noises and they are not good.
Those sounds are the ball joints getting scrapped by the socket joint on the shoulders and because of this Perticular mishap a very large collection of my transformers are either broken or just deadass loose
Because of my carelessness and it is a copy default so watch out stuff like these in old toys.
Especially the movie ones.
*wrrrg one of my favorite reviewers still at it with the videos*bzrrr also How’s the old hot shot figure any destructive plans for it*wrrg also just keep up the good work
You would think that he is going to be bulky in robot mode because he has SUV alternative mode,but no he has big knees and over shoulder jacket.
Should pop those shoulders off and give their balljoints a nice little sanding, since it sounds like at certain angles they’re grinding pretty hard against plastic, which is never the healthiest for a figure.
I have Fallback Brawn looks worse in alt mode but better in robot mode. But as a stupid child, I tore a corner of the heat reveal insignia, thinking it was a sticker to peel off to reveal his insignia
I want to get the Fallback version of this mold if I can find it sealed for cheap. There’s a legends class figure that looks more like brawn, so I plan on getting it at some point too.
The Fallback (Outback) version of the mold is cool and I feel that Fallback works better since the truck mode and kibble fit the design of G1 Outback better and he looks great next to SS BB Brawn.
Got his moldmate Fallback. Enjoying both the vehicle and robot mode.😁
Doesn't look like a shellformer when in robot form. But my son didn't like its appearance.
I still love this guy. I really liked him before, and I still do. The kibble just works for me.
one thing I've started to notice recently is how few bots have weapon storage in bot mode other than their hands especially on smaller toys even though it would take one slot in the back or something, and problem solved.
This figure is sick! I really wish I had him
Fallback version of this mould is better... change my mind.
i just scored this guy on ebay. Complete $25!!!!!!!!
He looks like someone made doomguy out of car parts, and suceeded! I want this guy so badly.
That's a cool looking transformer! He kinda looks like doomslayer
The Fallback repaint is so good. I have him, it looks like a desert mission or a safari vehicle, and the permanently attached gun makes more sense for him than for Brawn.
One of the things I love the most about his mold, is how relatively little paint it needs, multiple details are little pieces of plastic put together with screws. All the roof pieces are opaque plastic instead of the usual transluscent roof/window piece with paint. That (as well as the functional truck bed) is something this mold shares with another mold I love, Generations Kup
I swear you upload like yesterday but ha I’m not complaining always a good surprise to see your videos
Heh
i used to love ROTF brawn when i was younger! I had no clue he was brawn though
Imagine a deception chasing this truck and it transforms and you just see hands with guns pointing at you
I used to own this figure for 20 minutes and I threw it at a wall and broke it into pieces for no reason when I was young
I think it would be cool if hasbro took all of the ROTF toyline and turn them into studio series
If the brown in vehicle mode is too bland, u can make like foxitron and paint him or a duplicate
Man's like the more stuff I have covering me the better chance I have of survival
If he things this truck bed is usable, wait till he gets his hands on 07 dropkick
I really like this guy and he's totally a shellformer. But it works.
