This possibly is one of the most traumatic packs for TF fans born in the 80’s, they must be reliving those childhood memories! I like how they gave us the ER Prowl again but a bit annoying that he isn’t a clean rerelease and is in a two pack.
Thankfully there's a port on the blasted area, we're probably gonna see 3rd party sellers make a piece that can just tab in to port and make the windshield look somewhat normal and do something similar for prowl
@@Bebe_HippoI’ve seen one for ironhide on a used figure on eBay, so someone has made the file, it’s just not hit mass production yet. I’m considering picking the dead figure up, just to swap heads off my original 86 and put that piece in, and a sticker to cover the whole mess up.
I like to think this is Hasbro testing the waters to see if we'd want to see non-transparent pieces on future Generations figures, could also maybe lead to them expanding Studio Series further by including TV series' and giving us more accurate figures
If Studio series makes figures based on television shows. I just hope they actually keep the figures as close to the show as possible. Unlike the Legacy line that keeps stuffing G1 into their TFP and Animated figures.
@@tallietorchersproductions2740 yeah same with knockout, like that’s not knockout either, that’s a completely different head with a basic body that any car former could have. I could excuse it if the head was correct, but no, the G1 aspects to the head make it look like a completely different character. Knockout? Nah that’s decepticon Wake-up from TFP
Such an iconic scene. Personally I think the death expressions and battle damage are chef's kiss. I wish Prowl had the orange eyes. That's the real missed opportunity!
@@SpeckyNation It'll also cost $10 this making this toy $10 more, $20 if you buy both sets. I love Toyhax but, it also adds $10 - $40 or $50 to the cost of the toys. My Menasor set cost a total of $120 for all the sets. $45 for Motormaster, $60 for the 4 cars and an additional $15 fit the upgrade kit. Which then brings my set to a whopping $370 total before taxes. Same for my Rodimus Prime, $80 fit the figure followed by $35 fit the decals. Then you've got gap fillers, which I also buy, and it gets crazy expensive. So, my Menasor set is over $400 with the fillers added.
Imagine if Prowl had orange light-piping. Now Hasbro is selling the corpses of your FAVORITE characters! Vaporized Starscream? Run-over Shrapnel? Blown up Wheeljack?
This is the figure they should’ve released since the beginning, Yellow stripe✅ 0 clear plastic ✅✅✅ Better color matching due to lack of clear plastic ✅✅✅✅ Clean blue colored windows ✅✅✅✅✅
Looks better but still the plastic that they used is not of very good quality, I transformed him once with tons of care and now the figure has some signs of stress on the legs plastic, now I fear breaking it if I transform him once more
I love that the tabs on the roof don't stand out in red. The translucent blue on the last version made it look like a fire department support vehicle. I think I'll just cover the window with blue cardboard and display as the vehicle.
Well as soon as we get a 86 ratchet, the next set will be a dying ratchet and brawn. Also I could see them rereleasing a new clean prowl that’s exactly like this one but with a different head and no hole In the chest
The real car it’s based on often has those windows filled in, so no, it’s not “not painted for g1 accuracy” it wasn’t painted in g1 because of the real car
I guess the colour is close enough to swap heads with the SS Ironhide, but you can’t swap the chest plate, because it has the transparent windscreen and that would stick out. Side note, I think the reason they couldn’t do the stripe was how bad colour matching yellow on blue transparent plastic is. Also it’d be hard to find a red that looks right with a yellow that works right… the new damaged version has the stripe because it doesn’t have any transparent plastic.
As you mentioned, optional swap out parts for non-damaged pieces would make this piece an instant buy as then, collectors would have the option to have toon accurate ironhide and prowl and not only corpses which only look good when they're posed dying.
Like eh man (or woman) You wish the dying version should be clean? Like what? You wish a solid colour release would exist? I think that's what you mean, but like what?
@@autobotzein4689 well I completely disagree like eh a reissue of a slightly older figure and a kinda new figure just seem utterly unnecessary like yeah people missed out but like at that what's the point like every transformer especially with the current supply issues is missed out upon so just reissue every product constantly? Should we get a star wars black series/vintage collection issue in which almost everything is just repacks? Like this a completely new thing we have never gotten but people will want it. Like it's one of the most iconic moments in all of the transformers yet toys shouldn't exist because we just have to have the same thing over and over again?
Even if they didn’t have the budget to add swappable parts, they could’ve at least added a small windshield piece to connect to the port on Ironhide’s chest, just to fill it out.
I JUST got this set! Simple solution for me was, got matching color paint for the windshield, popped Ironhide’s heads off and swapped the 86 version, took the pins off the front and also swapped. Painted the windshield, and bam! Now Prowl, I’m working on that. It’s a risk if you choose to customize it. For me, totally worth it!
Mods stop the idiocy. Stop erasing my posts already. I don't even report other people's posts. Stop being such a bunch of satan's pathetic commie puppets of his. You are going to pay for it later if you don't stop doing it to others. Including me. You are asking for it. Remember God=Lord Jesus Christ and His divine justice later.
It is not a missed opportunity, because including swappable chests would have required them to completely re-engineer for the pieces to be swappable, and they weren't going to do that for a sideline that consists of mostly repaints. Extra heads, sure, that might have been feasible, depending on how they attach (if there are no screws), but chests?
@@Mattwreys Yes, but that would've looked awful as well. There is no way to do swappable chests without it being an extra expensive retool. If there is enough demand, we'll get color accurate animation versions.
I feel like they could've just made the shattered glass parts more inset to the chest, that way they could just have made a flat windscreen piece to cover it up if you wanted to
“Such heroic nonsense!” 💥 Okay jokes and quotes aside, the painted windows instead of clear plastic is a rather nice touch. They should make it a staple of the ‘86 line. Maybe DNA Designs can come in with some pieces that fill in the battle damaged
I hope they release barricade the same way with the Netflix bee. Mine broke while back maybe as rivalry across the universes 2 pack as a bay movie call back
I think we have to draw a distinction between missed opportunities (wants) and what they have done (needs) - they gave us toys of a huge fan favourite scene from the movie which a few years ago would have been an absolutely pipe dream. To then say they also should have included more parts and head swaps seems to be asking an awful lot and would absolutely destroy the point of this pack in the first place? Hasbro move to satisfy fans desires with cool packs like this one to then have “actually add more and do this” levelled at them - there has to be some reasonable expectations on this stuff.
Just got the two-pack at Toysrus this Thursday! It was a really pleasant surprise, as I thought they wouldn't release it until later this July! The background display and blast effects are a nice touch. I also have Studio Series 86 Ironhide, so now all I need is Brawn and the Earthrise figure of Prowl (you know, for continuity). Still, I didn't like their idea to kill off Ironhide. According to his character bios, he should have been tough enough to survive. In fact, in my stop-motion recreation I'm planning, as well as episode 1 of my "What if" styled anthology, the Decepticons will have upgraded their weapons to achieve this feat, and, in my splinter timeline, Ironhide will fake his deactivation until Megatron's boarding party throughs him out into space... until the Quintessons abduct him and give Ironhide a fate worse than death.
Hasbro needs to realize that we don't want clear plastic in car roofs, forearms, clips, unions or as an entire vehicle door. As a frequent buyer with a limited amount of money and other responsibilities, it hurts to see stress marks on figures that I almost never touch. It's just so unfair to get official figures that are time bombs and will break out of nothing sometime in the future.
I wholeheartedly agree we deserve figures that are worth the price we pay for them why is it so hard for HASBRO to give us QUALITY with figures we love so much i want durability i want to be able to pick it up mess with it and it be ok after legacy armada starscream its put me off from collecting but I have hopes hear and there for certain figures
For some reason, My local target already had this pack on sale for half price. Picked it up and it’s great, really enjoying the blast effects as well as the figures themselves. Trying to figure out a custom design for a filler piece that covers up Ironhides chest.
You made some excellent points. It's like what the hell were they thinking? Lol great review as always. I just got the two IDW box sets the ones you reviewed recently. That miner megatron is wicked!!!
I much prefer the opaque blue painted windows. It looks so much more cartoon realistic than the transparent windshields. I'll be replacing my older sets with any new sets with these windows ☺️
These figures look so cool and I agree with you. They could have come with swappable heads and chest plates. I may skip these two but I would love to have gotten them. Out of curiosity what type of stands do you use?
"We do get two blast effects with this set so you can have Ironhide and Prowl die the same time". This for me is easily the TH-cam comment of the week. I have no idea why but it tickled me and I am still trying to suppress laughter as I am writing this comment. Good job PVP.
I do want to get an earth mode prowl, but not with the battle damage. I'll wait to see if they release a cleaner version of him, or a re release of the earthrise version.
I like the battle damage on prowl because it looks like a but of damage and can still be passed of as a battle, but with ironhide the damage is too large
I'm a bit on the fence when it comes to clear plastic windows vs light blue. The blue paint looks very nice, but somehow also cheaper to me overall (I also miss diecast for the same reason nowadays). I can also see Hasbro releasing quality blue stickers so there's a choice.
Thought I can agree we can get switchable parts. There ate downsides like having to retool the figure from the ground up and marking the price up to be more expensive. We gotta be careful what we wish for because at the end it'll come to bite us hard
I am going to get em for Christmas cuz i can still do like they alive the prowl doesnt look That killed and for ironhide ok i can still do like he survived both great pack for an amazing g1 prowl figure.
Agreed. I do NOT want dead versions of characters or versions of characters as they are getting sniped. It's traumatic to watch our beloved characters get blown to pieces as it is in the movie without freezing that moment and constantly reliving it.
Because they know if they had released a clean version of this with no battle damage but had this paint people would buy that and not this so that's why did it imo
These moulds are repaints, any of their tooling expenses were likely covered but the first few runs of the mould (especially the Datsun mould) I really don’t think it would’ve cost them much at all to include at least a swappable head 🤷🏼♂️
I don't see why they couldn't at least give us pieces to peg onto the exposed pieces to clean them up a little bit, I mean a piece that could peg into the windshield on Ironhide and another on Prowl would have been nice, wouldn't it?
This could have been a great meet in the middle opportunity. I would be willing to pay a little more for this set if it did have swappable clean accessories. As opposed to just straight up having to spend more money on different figures. They could have given us that and made more money still by just charging a bit more for extra accessories.
I still really cannot believe they did this. Like imagine being a kid on Christmas and opening presents and the first thing you see is your favorite transformers CORPSE.
I completely agree with your review and critiques PvP, and while I do think that the shaded in windows are better than the transparent ones, a part of me kind of wants the transparent version to match with all the older figures (eg. Having a Prowl with colored windows along with the transparent window Bluestreak, having a Ratchet with colored windows along with the transparent window Ironhide, etc.) Because with the prices nowadays, I don't know how keen I would be in getting another Bluestreak or another Ironhide just for transparent vs colored windows, if you know what I mean. I try to avoid getting two versions of the same character (the rumored Commander SS86 Ultra Magnus might be an exception though, we'll see how good he turns out).
Right with you on alternate parts. I'd rather pay a little more for an extra head sculpt than have to repurchase the same mold "but better!" Just make it correctly the first time.
I would love to get a clean version of 86 Prowl and as I said from time to time, nearly everyone from the 86 animated movie including Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Megatron and anyone that some people missed and that they’re on at the after market for ridiculous prices (e.g. Thrust, Dirge and Ramjet)
Guys hear me out since this two pack exists are there gonna be another diseased two pack characters like the insections and thundercracker and skyward?
I am looking at the prowl comparison, and saying that they have the tooling for the chest price is not 100% accurate, because the ss86 prowl has bumperettes and the lights are now molded into the bumper piece.
What's the odd that a 3P will make a non damage window to covered the damaged window cos you got the 5mm port in the front and aswell a normal head to replace the horrific one?
This possibly is one of the most traumatic packs for TF fans born in the 80’s, they must be reliving those childhood memories! I like how they gave us the ER Prowl again but a bit annoying that he isn’t a clean rerelease and is in a two pack.
he'll get a clean release eventually im sure
Its not the first time in my book
The original was a 2 pack but, with a different Ironhide.
Nah sun….them having a blasted dome head swap for Iron Hide would have tripled down on the trauma
Haha yes! This and sleep mode OPTIMUS Prime are very morbid releases haha 😆
Thankfully there's a port on the blasted area, we're probably gonna see 3rd party sellers make a piece that can just tab in to port and make the windshield look somewhat normal and do something similar for prowl
Unfortunately it still hasn’t happened

We can only hope that's the case. They already chickened out of non-clear plastic after Buzzworthy Cliffjumper and Kup
If Studio series makes figures based on television shows.
I just hope they actually keep the figures as close to the show as possible.

Such an iconic scene. Personally I think the death expressions and battle damage are chef's kiss. I wish Prowl had the orange eyes. That's the real missed opportunity!
I think they went with this as it's the last moments just before he died. The orange eyes being when he's already a corpse.
I prefer if there was a head swap accessories I don’t mind the battle damaged/giant wounds on their chest
I have to disagree, if they’re gonna do dying Prowl, then give him the orange eyes at least… 😅
I do agree with you. The eyes and mouth should have gotten orange light piping.
@@ARMsMaster well, I’m fine with paint, but orange and not blue… they wanna recreate that scene, do it right.
@ARMsMaster maybe not that, since they'd likely just make the entire backside clear plastic (never a good thing on ball joints lol

Will they definitely release the normal ones?
My prowl has some bad qc the lower half keeps coming off so might just get the baiwei Megatron so he can at least have two
Honestly I don’t mind the battle damage, but it would be nice to have an extra head and not just a screaming head
Absolutely agree!
I originally passed on this set when it was in store but picked it up at a discount store when I saw it.

im thinking ironhide will get a buzzworthy bumblebee reissue with his strip and painted windshield like they did with kup
I might get this for my birthday one reason is bc of the blast effects
Great review PrimeVsPrime!! I just want Ratchet with solid plastic windows from the SS86 Ironhide mold. lol Keep on being amazing.
i dont get that ratchet came clean first, i mean, he's a reskin of a clean ironhide
Think with the prowl u can get away as just battle damage as you said hard too get the other prowl

Prime vs prime what studio series is the best Mirage Or Optimus primal (my opinion is Primal)
Primal! 🦍
If only a Prowl had been released without damage at Legacy United

Definitely needed the attachable/detachable pieces.
That was the FIRST thing I thought.
You could use original ironhide for bot mode and damaged for vehicle mode
That would be a good idea!
Thanks because the cartoon ironhide had no stripes in robot mode
Because they know if they had released a clean version of this with no battle damage but had this paint people would buy that and not this so that's why did it imo

I don't see why they couldn't at least give us pieces to peg onto the exposed pieces to clean them up a little bit, I mean a piece that could peg into the windshield on Ironhide and another on Prowl would have been nice, wouldn't it?
There’s one rule about this channel:
Never forget the music intro
This could have been a great meet in the middle opportunity. I would be willing to pay a little more for this set if it did have swappable clean accessories. As opposed to just straight up having to spend more money on different figures. They could have given us that and made more money still by just charging a bit more for extra accessories.
As morbid as it sounds, I wish Ironhide had a few more damage points. He was shot 4 times before the final blast from Megatron.
I still really cannot believe they did this. Like imagine being a kid on Christmas and opening presents and the first thing you see is your favorite transformers CORPSE.
They killed off iron hide so quick in Transformers the movie. (Also can i get pinned?)
Because his G1 toy was trash and didn’t sell well… sad, but true. 😅
Time to sell new figures!
*ENTER 86’ CAST*
And he died in DOTM! Poor guy cannot catch a break 💔
@@PrimeVsPrime Jazz lived in the 86’ movie. I think Daniel saved him from being digested at the last second.
What kind of blue and red color they use?
Megatron: "Such heroic nonsense."
Bro They Looks So Amazing, I Wish They Would Work On The Studio Series Leader Class Megatron From 86 Transformers The Movie
I would LOVE SS86 Leader Megs!
Me Too Bro!
I completely agree with your review and critiques PvP, and while I do think that the shaded in windows are better than the transparent ones, a part of me kind of wants the transparent version to match with all the older figures (eg. Having a Prowl with colored windows along with the transparent window Bluestreak, having a Ratchet with colored windows along with the transparent window Ironhide, etc.) Because with the prices nowadays, I don't know how keen I would be in getting another Bluestreak or another Ironhide just for transparent vs colored windows, if you know what I mean. I try to avoid getting two versions of the same character (the rumored Commander SS86 Ultra Magnus might be an exception though, we'll see how good he turns out).
They should have done painted battle damage like in siege so we could rub it off, especially if they weren’t going to give us interchangeable parts
Also I would like to see that transforming t rex. And btw are u a jurassic world fan? I love both tf and jw and jp
Right with you on alternate parts.
I'd rather pay a little more for an extra head sculpt than have to repurchase the same mold "but better!"
Just make it correctly the first time.
I would love to get a clean version of 86 Prowl and as I said from time to time, nearly everyone from the 86 animated movie including Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Megatron and anyone that some people missed and that they’re on at the after market for ridiculous prices (e.g. Thrust, Dirge and Ramjet)
"Battle Damage" version you say?... How about "Murder damage" version?
Guys hear me out since this two pack exists are there gonna be another diseased two pack characters like the insections and thundercracker and skyward?
Are we getting a 86 movie battle damage dead ratchet also ?
I am looking at the prowl comparison, and saying that they have the tooling for the chest price is not 100% accurate, because the ss86 prowl has bumperettes and the lights are now molded into the bumper piece.
What's the odd that a 3P will make a non damage window to covered the damaged window cos you got the 5mm port in the front and aswell a normal head to replace the horrific one?
So, no shoulder cannons for this Prowl then?
I honestly bought this set just for Prowl. He is easily my favorite character, and yet is crazy hard to find at a reasonable price.
I’m hoping they’re gonna do a two pack of Brawn and Ratchet.
Whats your intro theme songs name bcoz its so cool
I love how Hasbro cares about the collectors that keep them in business.
And yet some of them still aren't satisfied and want more
@@kylegregory46 And many are happy settling for less.
