Had the video completed before I crossed this particular milestone, so I'll call it out in the comments instead - thanks to everyone for 15K subscribers this weekend! :D
Chris McFeely You're welcome, man! Hey, have uou done a Basics episode on Ratchet or Lockdown yet?
NO PROBLEM.... I HATE RESCUE BOTS..... WELLL NOT AS MUCH AS RID 2015 .... AND I HATE RB BECAUSE NONE OF THE BOTS IN THERE COULD FIGTH EVEN A SINGLE DECEPTICON.... NOT EVEN SOUNDWAVE'S MINI CASETS.
That’s great when I first saw this series I’ve watched every episode so I’m glad it’s a lot of attention looking foreword to more episodes
Chris McFeely can you plz do basics on titans
Congats on the 15K and if you were to do an insecticon story I expect Bob The insecticon to be mentioned
I like how the IDW comics gives characters who were normally crowd filler a chance to shine.
That’s bad for Hoist because he doesn’t want to be in the spotlight
Mega Nerd but he got the SPOTLIGHT
But in some cases like cyclonus and tailgate they f**ked em' up.
@Baseeruddin Syed there in some time of relationship. Not everyone is a fan but I could care less.
Comics don’t need to pay for voice acting
If I had a nickel for ever time Chris McFeely said “offlined by a cosmically powered starscream”
You'd have enough to buy Hasbro
"My personality isn't the result of a crippling psychological disorder."
When the writers call themselves out you know you've got some good folks working on a project. Hoist, welcome to my codex of transformers I never knew I wanted in my life. Great video.
Sir/ma’am you have a Kamen Rider Ichigo profile picture, so your argument is the most valid you magnificent man/woman of culture!
@@NoahDaArk Bless you my child.
Hoist was so underrated.He was the first Commemorative Autobot I picked up when I returned from Iraq.Much better use of the mold than Trailbreaker
Patriot Prime Reviews hoists chances to shine was the G1 animated series he was underdeveloped in the comics though the same can be said for almost every character in budianskys run on the comics and in the unicron trilogy he was smokescreen WTF!!! Maybe on the new cyberverse series we can get a cool hoist and a continuation of the animated series at some point in the near future
Yo think engineerhoist will live this
thank you for your service. god bless you
I've only known Hoist for 5 minutes, but now I'm going to look into him more. He's such an interesting character, if only because the idea of an Everyman Transformer is so uncommon.
Personal I think he could get an acting role on whatever thundercracker writes up
This should happen.
Always liked Hoist and Grapple, that duo made a lot of sense. Really enjoyed this video too!
I find them criminally underrated. Personally my two favourite G1 characters
this feels a bit refreshing, to be honest, I agree most characters have their personalities stand out but Hoist is kind of like the transformer equivalent of the everyday man, the "everyBot" if you will. and Congrats on the 15k Chris!
Probably the reason why i personaly like him so much. Compared to others like Percaptor, Power Glide ore Warpath he realy is just you normal Bot that just so happens to be part of Optimus Team on Earth.
Am I the only one who likes how Chris pronounces the name 'Bob Budiansky' every single time? Its like ASMR to me hahaha
kaiplue marry me you beautiful avatar. :)
megatron29 gtfo of here you pervert
kaiplue I say who cares budiansky didn’t give our favorite characters from the show no development in the comics
i agree
@@jakeproven5931 Could you say that again without the double negative? I can't tell what you're trying to say.
Awesome job once again. I wondered what happened to Hoist, since he appeared and then disappeared so quickly back in the 80s. I figured he must have been one of the unseen casualties of the battle of Autobot City. Oh, for the record, during my college days when my friends and I discussed the topic, the consensus was that the season 2 Autobots who simply appeared were actually there all along. To conserve energon, several Autobots were in emergency stasis aboard the Ark, so that when they reached a world with better resources, they could be reawakened and help with the work. The new Decepticons were simply reinforcements from Cybertron. Would love to hear your thoughts on that theory, and keep up the good work.
Poor Skids only ever got one episode and Roadbuster never appeared in any G1 episodes, Hoist was quite fortunate.
for some reason i absolutely love g1 hoist's voice. he sounds so kind and comforting
Never appreciated the meta-joke about Hoist being uninteresting in the Spotlight comic. Thanks for helping me understand how much i underappreciated the poor guy.
My boy in the orange shorts!
I've always had a soft spot for Hoist
Hoist is the Tad Strange of the Transformers universe. I imagine him acting like Spongebob from that episode where he tried to be "normal."
Optimus: Hoist, we need your help to stop the Decepticons, at all costs.
Hoist: *hi, how are ya?*
That’s actually funny 😆
wrecker type yet he's never been a Wrecker. tragic.
He's probably hired by the Wreckers to clean up their messes.
69, nice
ProxyMoron he will be during earthrise under my direction
Palpatine: ironic
Basics on my favourite underrated character Warpath
I'll say what I want “BLAM!! BOOM!!! ZAM!!!”, one of Warpath’s great quotes.
I'll say what I want And I like how he punched through deadend window in g1
ZOWEE!
I would love that. Warpath is one of my favorites! He's a tank with "Turrets" (Tourette's) syndrome!
When caboose like tf
I always like a good bit of Rescue Bots love. That show introduced me to transformers
Now this, THIS is why I love this show! :D
Taking characters and concepts from the TF franchise, which either haven't gotten a lot of love or have almost been entirely forgotten, and bringing them back to the forefront in a unique & exciting analysis :D
Get work Chris!
Can't wait to the next episode!
I always loved poor Hoist. Hoist Goes Hollywood is probably my favorite season 2 episode.
I'm gonna flip when you do a spotlight on Warpath. BOOM! BAM! WAAAAM! ZOOOOOWWIEEEE
Such an obscure character, but I'm so happy he's got an episode of the basics on him!
It’s awesome that hoist now has a figure of him for the first wave of earthrise
Its funny how Hoist always seems to be a retool of Trailbreaker, but in the new Earthrise toyline, its *Trailbreaker* who's going to be a retool of Hoist. That totally flips the tables around.
(btw, I love Hoist's toy. His proportions are just so lovable for some reason)
its messed up tho it would be cool if they could bring some of these underrated characters back like Hoist, trailbreaker, warpath, durge, skywarp and all of those characters
Awesome episode of the Basics, I have always loved Hoist. The episode "Hoist Goes Hollywood" is one of my all time favorite G1 episodes. I have had the G1 figure since 1986 (got him on clearance back then).
Congrats on all the subscribers and I can't wait too see what you do next.
Not gonna lie, if I were showrunner for a new Transformers show, I'd make Hoist part of the core cast. Seriously, Hasbro could mandate I replace every character with Bumblebee, and I'd still fight to keep Hoist in. :)
Sure, if I did that, they'd probably just fire me for refusing an executive mandate, but it’s the principle that matters, right?
you like him a lot huh
I know, it's almost like I paid 50 dollars to sponsor on episode on him or something! :P
well this video and you enthusiasm inspired me to put hoist in a larger role in one my my fan fics.
@@Tamashikiri Well thanks. I also like Hoist.
I'm a big fan of Hoist too. I mostly only like the characters that don't have a human mouth. Having a battle mask is a must have to get in my favorites tier.
Hoist is right there at the top of the list for the Autobots.
Still one of my favourite G1 toys. Though primarily a comic fan, I did like his personality in the G1 cartoon. He just seemed like a good bot but with being corny.
I enjoyed his Spotlight. Sometimes it's nice to see a subdued, ordinary character among the bigger personalities.
Great video as always. I wouldn't mind a video on each of the following:
Actionmasters
G1 Inferno
Terrorsaur
G1 Prowl
Sentinel Prime
Metroplex
Rodimus Prime
When I was a Kid I liked Hoist because I thought his face looked cool. As an Adult, I look back and like him because he does Science and Engineering.
This episode was a lot more fun and interesting than I expected. You should do a spin off "Basics -Spotlight" seties where you showcase a different G1 character each week. And use the regular Basics series for broader topics like, Triple Changers, Seakers, Wreckers and Artifacts of the Primes.
I came here after picking up his earthrise figure
same
Growing up I was never a fan of Hoist until his IDW spotlight comic, where I found my beliefs and why of life was basically him. I much rather be in the background and live my life. nothing more nothing less.
Hoist is one of those characters you just can't dislike. I know he's never really done anything, and his toy and design are pretty bland, but there's just something about him that makes you get a little excited whenever he pops up as a generic extra in the background of a group shot in a comic.
Lesser known g1 characters are a great topic! Serve was my first ever toy and I love how, many years later, he got to shine! I'd love an ep in him or other similar characters
Even with all the other bombastic personalities and interesting storylines a lot of other Autobots have, I have a bit of a soft spot for Hoist. There's just something I love about him just being a chipper, friendly guy who just enjoys doing his job and doing it well.
Always loved Hoist. He was also a rad G1 toy. He could roll the furthest of all my other figures. Nostalgia.
My favorite Revenge of the Fallen toy I owned, was Hoist, I always thought of him as sort of like Master Chief from Halo, tall, bulky, and having a huge (sniper/blaster) rifle. I liked to think of him as the leader of an elite group of Autobots, akin to the Wreckers, but at the time I owned him, I didn't even know what a Wrecker was, dial up internet days.
3:48 when I first got the 2 Disc DVD Armada Boxset when I was Younger, I actually Thought Hoist was new Character unrelated to Hoist
Do a video on:
1. Spike and Carly (and Sparkplug)
2. Japanese only toys and shows
3. Cybertron/primus
4. Crossover transformers toys (Star wars, marvel ect)
Hoist and the other 1985 Autobot Cars got short-changed. If only, like the 1985 Autobot Mini-Vehicles or Decepticon Planes, they had persisted on both shelves and in episodes into 1986, the post-movie change might have felt less jarring.
In later years, the red version of the Diaclone toy would be released as a Transformers character named Lift Ticket.
Next time should be Scourge or Thundercracker (or maybe both as they are the same guy in G1)
You didn't watch the Cyclonus one, dd you? LOL
I did, but I never heard anything on Scourge besides from times he was with Cyclonus
Emperor Galvatron what about Overlord?
Always been a fan of hoist and trailbreaker actually. I bought them both when they came out during the War for Cybertron lines
I just got myself a WFC Earthrise toy of Hoist today for two reasons 1. He was a Shelfwarmer 2. He was only £10 reduced from £16.99 so I guess I got a soft spot for the forgotten and I love Hoist Spotlight episode from G1.
I love Trailbreaker and Hoist - two often overlooked characters.
I remember getting my own G1 Hoist figure as a surprise Christmas present a few years ago, and I'm still more than happy to have it. :)
Hoist is one cool ordinary guy. Oh, I have a cool idea for how to open the Basics on Trailbreaker, "The Autobot with force field finesse!"
Awesome video they keep getting better and better and Hoist goes Hollywood one of my favourite G1 episodes and I’ll look forward to more videos in the future and you should try one about Wheeljack.
He’s getting a earth rise toy so this needs a part 2 in 2020please
I would like to see a video on power glide, Red Alert, warpath, or sky lynks next.
I've always associated myself with this bot as long as I've been online. As a kid in a single parent (Divorced) family, I mostly had minibots as a kid, oh and Twintwist later for a Christmas present. Hoist however was my first regular sized bot after the minibots bought by my father, so naturally I was over the moon when he got me my first regular sized TF and I came to idolize that toy - sitting being the couch applying the decals, playing with it, nothing to do with the character though at the time. So when I finally got online in 2001 and started looking up TF communities it was the natural choice as a user name.
I want to see the basics on Sixshot, Scorponok and on Minicons.
Love your channel. Look forward to every new basics. Life long TF fan/collector
0:10
Duo of Obscurity
Christ ALIVE he's been unlucky. Still, he's getting an Earthrise toy, so maybe he'll be in the new show.
And now we have a new Earthrise Hoist with a faithful rendition of his G1 chubby self
I bought the reissue version of Hoist back in 2005 from Toys R Us. He was fun watching in the G1 episodes, along with Grapple.
"It fits just fine, commander!"
"You know why you can't get a *handle* on me? Because I'm an *ordinary person.* I'm *normal.* I'm just a mid-ranking *maintenance engineer* who takes each day as it comes. I'm not particularly chatty, handsome or clever, but you know what? I get by. I *manage.* So don't *dismiss* me just because-unlike all your pals on the Lost Light-my personality isn't the product of a *crippling psychological disorder."*
If I ever made a Transformers story, I'd have Hoist as the chief medical officer.
5:38 omfg it’s bob
My first Hoist was the Generations toy, though I don't recall ever reading the pack-in comic, or that it even came with one at all.
While i dont watch Rescue Bots i am simpley happy that Hoist get a Chance to Roul out again. He always was appealing to me maybe because we have such similiar personalaties. We both prefer to just stay in the bakground and go on with life. The Episode Hoist Goes to the Movie is also one of my favrites so i am realy happy that they made a small refrence to that in Animated.
I'm a huge fan of Hoist. He is definitely in my top 10 favorite Autobots. I'm glad you did this retrospective on him. I'm glad they made a toy for him in Transformers Earthrise. I hope we get to see him in the actual Netflix cartoon in the second season.
Season 2 autobots were poorly debuted they just literally appeared, like for example there was no episode to say that they're new recruits from Cybertron
Brick Springstern - I love it!
This calls for a smokescreen basics episode. Like the guys transitioned from a regular autobot, to a completely different character (only name) to being a prime. We need a basics on smokescreen
I just picked up the reissue g1 hoist last week
They better do right by my man hoist
There was a time here in my are, all the Transformers toys available was HOIST.
I love all your videos
Smokescreen/Hoist was my favorite character in Armada, His death devastated me as a kid and I stopped watching the show and buying the toys until I learned from a classmate that he had been brought back to life.
I remeber when I got hoist for birthday!!! I was so happy!!!
... so the game transformers fall of cybertron had a green-orange-painted bot which opend a defected door in the arch so the player (as bumblebee) could progress in the very first level... He (probably) died soonly after when the grabby-thingy of the decepticon ship destroyed the wall of the hall in which bumblebee, some autobot soldiers and that kind bot were. The soldiers got "suck" into the space and the last one wast that green-orange bot -
so was that "hoist"? It would make sense, since he was just in the background and trying to help his friends.
Fun fact, the film director from "Hoist Goes Hollywood" is the same character that directed the cold slither music video for Cobra over on G.I. Joe.
Hoist from G1:Who are you
Hoist Rescuebots:Im and your past
Basics on Tailgate Please!!!!!!!! He’s my favorite Autobot
Would love to see a basics on Prowl and Starscream
Star scream is my favorite g1Character
6:04 damn bro same
you forgot his appearance in TF FOC on chapter one when the Player learns how to jump and sprint across a crater
He also had a cameo in transformers combiner force if I remember... When Optimus was listing auto bots who were banned from cybertron, they showed multiple g1 bots, including hoist
Keep up the good work fleshling.
Great video as always loved it, wish that there was More stuff like this
Please do a vidoe on Grapple, he is one of my favorite G1 characters and he is very underrated
i had missed the armada episode that introduced hoist so i thought he was a completely separate autobot from smokescream for more then a decade till i got to watch hotshot and starscream working out their issues and hoist stopping hotshot from off-lining starscream
I like Hoist, because, he seems to be an underused 'Bot, and he just needs to have more friends.
Cool and as you mentioned grabble was in the first 3 tv shows but only in his truck mode
I got the Generations figure with the pack in comic. It was one of my first experiences with the IDW series and I loved it so much since the comic did amazing character work with an otherwise kind of nothing character/
challenge: try not to be offlined by a cosmically powered starscream
Makes you wonder in the comics if the characters like Hoist existed still on Cybertron if there crystals just had a ‘copy’ of their personality.
The 2001 Robots In Disguise character Tow Line reminded me of Hoist, mostly in his design.
Amazingly enough....I had his armada toy as a kid.
I never had hoist, but I did have the longrack remold
Ah yes, Armada Smokescreen getting rebuilt into Hoist. That mattered so much, I didn't even mention the name change when I reviewed Armada a few years ago.
Curiously, I felt Hoist had potential, if nothing else because of The Master Builders episode. Then again we do have Pipes, who fills more or less the same purpose in Transformers lore.
Armada Hoist and Refute were the first Transformers toys I ever owned. I had played with a few of my step-fathers Transformers before that, but I truly started with Armada, and Hoist and Refute were my first ones.
... I kinda miss my old Transformers toys. I am easily bored and constantly fiddling with small objects, but looking at the toys lining toy-store shelves these days is disappointing.
For some reason Hoist and Grapple always reminded me of those two gophers on the Looney Tunes cartoons that are always being polite to each other!
I think a good alternate mode for Hoist would be a Aggressive 2001 FORD F550 Tow Truck.
I remember having the armada hoist toy as a kid and being really confused by the name.
