I think you nailed it with the team feeling a somewhat lifeless. I was expecting it to be more rewarding seeing them all together but idk, they kinda just feel a bit… plane
Man, Arialbots, I know, but daaaaaamn that is a lot of crap hanging off his back. Didn't some of the others try to hide the wings away better, or am I misremembering? (Then again, one can go too far in the other direction. Dream Star. [shudders])
I would have bought it if it didn't come with the combiner parts. I love the planes but the combine mode doesn't interest me. This is way too expensive now.
Comedy Show? If he is ever in your area (and I've seen him at Mogooby's Joke House near Baltimore), go see Dave Attell. Greatest Stand-up Comedian of All Time. I'll die on that hill. Can't wait to see these guys combined and see how they hold up...literally :)
Wow... Great review as always :) So bot mode looks ok... really hate the sacrifice with the waist (like the other arm bot) Also not crazy with the kibble. Yes zeta cheated, with removable wings... but I already seen the screw holding the wings on, and it wasn't like I was looking for it. I don't know... Alt mode is spectacular So torn in so many ways... for the price it should be soooo much better. I think your comment really sums it up... I don't regret it :P
He said afterwards he should have been more prepared. He’s a smart guy and knows it. He thought he remembered how to transform them all from years ago without even messing with them. He said it wasn’t that difficult had he read over the instructions at least before streaming live.
Dunno what meltdown you saw. Dude had a few hiccups here and there and I wouldn't call that a meltdown. TBH would like to see you do a livestream oh wait! You don't have courage or probably the figures to do so LOL
@@i.still.function3463 He's one of my favorite reviewers, and even he'd say that it was one of his worst reviews in a while. Also, I have no idea why you decided to go for the ad hominem approach at the end lol
So is the next video going to be the full on Fans Toys Superion? If so, I’m there for it! Also, hoping Newage can make a slightly less complicated version of Fans Toys Superion so we’re not left with just the Zeta version for legends fans.
These are cool being mp scale but I don't think I'd get these.. strongly enough I got.the legends metallic Set and it's actually been awesome. I know their was se issues but my sets been decent. The ... left ratchet on the shoulder seems week but I think that's been an issue for everyone 😂 great vid
Sayin' that they're "lifeless" is puttin' it gently. On the other hand, I think that the designs are...okayish...but maybe, *just maybe*, what they need to really pop all the way off is that G2 repaint. Is it blasphemous heresy to folks seeking that ultimate G1 look? Probably. BUT!! Just imagine: • Silverbolt: blue & red w/silver on top of the jet • Slingshot: gold w/silver chest, blue hands, & tiger stripes on wings & tailfin • Fireflight: red, white, & silver with flame tipped pinstripes on wings & tailfin • Airraid: blue, white, & silver with red on the wings & tailfins(and I guess a blue grid on the red?) • Skydive: silver w/blue head & arms, blue on the wings, and a blue & white checkered flag pattern on the blue of the wings and the (straight up silver) tailfins It would definitely stand out a lot more on a shelf, whether indimavidually in robot modes, indimavidually in jet modes, or combined into Superion (whose hands & feet are also blue). Speaking of which, now Superion gets a silver face (faceplated or not doesn't matter, it's still silver) and also gets the "Hasbruh MP & Siege Soundwave treatment" by having the red visor eye replaced with yellow. Maximum popoffery here. The Stunticons pop off because you have a big bricky box of a robot that's a truck alongside a few cars, and errybody is a different color (black, yellow, maroon, gray, & white or cream depending on who colors Breakdown). The Aerialbots?? Aside from Airraid, whose jet mode is black, errybody rockin' red & white. (Fireflight rocks it so hard that it bleeds over into his G2 palette like Screw the Rules) Sure, it's nice and uniform like the Constructicons (puke green & purple) or the Predacons (black, orange, red, & yellow, and howdafuq does Razorclaw work in ALL THAT successfully!?)...but for a buncha jetbots...it can get a little bit boring, lifeless, or even soulless. The Combaticons & Terrorcons (and thus Bruticus & Abominus) don't care about uniformity...why should the Aerialbots?
Question: why do these ariel bots have such piss poor articulations?? No waist rotation, no double elbow, no double knees etc... Even CHUG have way better articulations then this.
The head sculpt looks like Woody Harrelson with sunglasses lol.
I can't unsee it now🤣
I'd honestly say Mr clean. He already has orange-ish tan
Looks more like Matthew Frewer.
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂

Well played!!
You had me in the first half, not gonna lie.
Finally FT finished their Superion set, would love to see the combine mode.
The Jet mode is so good! Thanks Bobby!

Love the subtle tombstone reference
Dont do the combined mode, just out of spite.

I haven't had a fans toys bot in a while, I forgot about that awful noise the constantly make
That jet mode!!!! 😍

Man… watching the transformation of these things gives me anxiety. So much creaking and flexing.
Funny how, the more I enjoy a Fans Toys figure is inversely proportional to how much everything is painted.
Great review my brother
Thanks, dude! Shout out to Dennis, so to speak. 😅
classic head sculpt, but it still reminds me of the guy with hair on the sides and a bald streak going down the middle.
Thats a nice looking group...
this set is pretty half-assed
That orange head and mostly white body is giving me that dude from Karateka vibes.
Mines just arrived, think I need to set an afternoon aside, i want to go through all bots, all alt modes and then combined.
Wow... Great review as always :)
So bot mode looks ok... really hate the sacrifice with the waist (like the other arm bot) Also not crazy with the kibble.

So torn in so many ways... for the price it should be soooo much better.

did i miss the size comparison? did we not get a tigettrax cameo this time?
seeing how Paik of all people had a meltdown with the combiner... oh dear.

Part 2 coming for full combination reviews?
Thanks for the video, Looking forward to your thoughts on the combine mode! At last! Haha

Set and it's actually been awesome. I know their was se issues but my sets been decent. The ... left ratchet on the shoulder seems week but I think that's been an issue for everyone 😂 great vid
I'm surprised that you didn't choose cybertron for they're backdrop. They were created the same time as the stunticons.
I think they look goofy in non realistic backgrounds. So I wouldn’t do a cybertron, Ark or nemesis background ever. Me personally.

Hey Bobby why don’t you put autobot symbols on your bots? Thanks
‘Any butterfly…na’ lol😂

Engineering for combined mode... the arms got the shaft so to speak :P
@@voodooneightyeight7929excuses
Let’s gooooo
i hate them. my alt mode transforms into a nice backpack for me to lug through life.
