Something I didn't mention in the vid, which I often bring up, is that Barricade was voted by fans into the Transformers Hall of Fame in 2017! Though he didn't get in under the main "favourite character" category; he won that year's one-off "favourite MOVIE character" category.
A shame he was wasted in TLK
Chris McFeely you should do...uhm... BRAWN
You should do blackout next, since there have been a lot of version of him
Tdg
Definitively do blackout, he is also one of the few good bayverse designed robots.
Reminder that Barricade is the only Decepticon in all of Bayformers to make it through all 5 movies without dying. That alone makes him the best of them for knowing when to cut loses and retreat.
Cowards do survive.
@@magnusprime962 he not coward, he just clever, and in transformers 5, he leaved, because he can't flying!
@@magnusprime962 He who runs away lives to fight another day.
Smartest Decepticon in the movies.
I thought he died before the third movie and in DoTM he was a clone
Legend says that Barricade is still searching for Ladiesman217 to this day
maybe then he will find love
Maybe the real ladiesman217 were the friends we made along the way
He is ladiesman217
@@matthew_natividad ...whoa. Just blew my mind there mate.
Is that why he would never just lay down and die when he'd been clobbered?
To think that Barricade became such a fan favorite simply because Michael Bay forgot about him
Zono heh to me he was just the best part of the first movie. The Punish and Enslave decals was the best joke. The only thing that made me burst laughing. So much that while I hated the movie, I did brought a punish and enslave t-shirt, and hurried to get the Siege toy of Barricade. I kinda hate the movie designs so did not get movie toys
Bayformer
@@oliviawilliams6204 Same. The bayformers were just so over-designed in an attempt to present a "realistic" take on what a vehicle would look like reconfigured into a humanoid shape.
Basics on Blackout please.
Barricade dodge the Michael bay transformers except the 1st & 5th movies.
When I was a kid I always referred Barricade as "The Bumblebee of the Decepticons" and that's why he's so memorable to me lol.
I thought that as well too😅😅
He’s memorable to me just by the fact that he’s a Decepticon who transforms into a police car
And like how bumblebee Is the only autobot to survive all five movies , Barricade’s the only decepticon to survive all five movies
Me too
@@slappystarfishgaming3920 Barricade has been killed in Dark of the moon and came back in 5
He's just like Bulkhead and Knock-Out. His name is just used in random until his name finally is associated to someone significantly.
Knock-Out for the sexy voice and sweet chassis, Bulkhead for the Wreckers...
Heh throw a name on enough characters and eventually you tell stick. Lol
@@SUSsykage i personally prefer Animated Bulkhead to Prime Bulkhead.
I now want to see them in a three way combiner team.
@@mechanwhal6590 you may also add Blackout. He share the same case as these guys.
It's ironic how Barricade's design and personality in the films made him more popular among fans than the redesigns of the more recognizable cast.
It's probably because he was a non-entity coming into the film and had nothing to lose if the character or design was hated.
@@kirbyfanprime Also, frankly, I think the whole "four-eyed knife gorilla" look actually works really well for a baddie.
@@misterbadguy7325 yeah. I'd even say he was the most defined Decepticon, both in character and appearance, in that film.
@@kirbyfanprime Blackout?
@@xanshen9011 as much as I like him, Blackout was just kinda...there. He didn't have any personality to speak of, was absent until the final battle, then got a rocket to the crotch.
Fun Fact: In the Bayverse tie-in video games, Barricade's voice was provided by Keith David, who is also known for providing the voice of Dr. Facilier in Disney's The Princess and The Frog, Bolo in Final Space, Spawn in general and The Arbiter in the Halo series.
And, honestly? That was a perfect casting choice, in my opinion.
Don't forget Goliath from Gargoyles, a 90s Disney cartoon
In that game, he also took on kind of a mentor role to Build-a-Con and that was my favourite depiction of Barricade.
Keith David also is Alex Miline's ideal voice for Tarn and recently, he's the newest voice for Grimlock. And I've been hoping for that casting choice for years.
He was so good in that video game, also the car he copied already had a decepticon insignia on it 😂
'07 Barricade is still, to date, one of my favorite Transformers designs. Something about the insectoid "gonna break with one breath" look of it makes it look really badass.
I honestly believe that Barricade was one of the best characters given to us by the movies. He is really great as a bad cop
All cops are bad. The only good cops are ones that aren’t cops anymore
@@tracytron7162 nah, i mean look, there are indeed bad cops, and the ones that dont stop the bad ones, doesnt help either but there are indeed good cops, maybe not in gringoland but other places they do in fact exist
And as person that comes from a family with a lot cops i can assure that there cops that are just, good people, doing their jobs the best they can to protect and provide for their family
Tracytron That is at best naive and at worst hateful. Cops are people, just like us. And their function, regardless of how well they’re performing it, is a necessary one. Not everyone can afford private security to protect them when someone tries to rob them or burn down their home. There are evil people out there, and we need to be protected from them. There’s also cops who help stop non-violent crime, such as the ones who helped catch the con artist who swindled my aunt and several other woman out of thousands of dollars while pretending to be their boyfriend. He is a dangerous man and people need to be protected from him.
Are all cops good? No, of course not. Do we need to change our system to better protect the public from abuses of power? Absolutely. Are all cops evil? No. No group of people is pure evil or pure good. The police serve a necessary function and the solution to our problems lie in sustained systematic reformation, not removing police altogether.
@@magnusprime962 Well said.
@@tracytron7162 BLM member?
Fun fact: In the nintenda DS version of the movie tie in game, Barricade is a tactical genius. He uses his police form to his advantage by radioing in dispatches to other officers to slow down bumblebee. He even says "attention all units" to them, which shows he did research on how to act and talk like a police officer. Just a great display on how smart Barricade actually is
That’s awesome
The Bayformer Universe MADE him popular!
One, out of a few things that Micheal Bay got right!!
Yeah, with memes
Alongside Bumblebee
@@the9der352 I have seen you on a kod video
@Drakon590 eh
@Drakon590 you speak lies and gibberish
Barricade, one of the only, if not "the" only Transformer to break the barricade of being, "just one of the Micromasters," and become a Decepticon repaint of classic character, Autobot Prowl.
True, though I personally consider them to be two separate characters that share the same name.
I'm not a fan of him just becoming a repaint of prowl. Wish they would give him his own design
@@RamWorkz he should always be a Mustang in my opinion. Instead of being the repaint, he's the original.
@@samuelrichards1288 That's a good point. :D
@@RamWorkz I guess Hasbro thought it was the best way to release new figures of him. :P :D
Diamondbolt: Barricade was a pink and blue micromaster, but nobody remembers that, nobody really cares. Now, because of you, they can only think in a police car.
Michael Bay: Yeah, but he looks rad as hell.
Brian (from TFanPage101): I mean, he has a point.
I mean Transformers is literally based conceptually on "the rule of cool", so doing things because it's cool fits perfectly in it. Like when, in the '07 film, Bumblebee was driving on two wheels while scanning the concept camaro. The only reason that scene exists is because it looked cool.
You know English? I always see your comments in auvelier xD
@@stopmotionfilms6481 I speak some basic english, grammar is very hard to me xD
Something I love about the 07 Barricade is that it helped sell the 'Robots in Disguise' aspect of the Transformers. Honestly, as much as I love Soundwave, having a cop car that Sam would initially trust end up as a Decepticon is an excellent part of the movie.
The number one thing I'll always remember (and love) about Barricade is that shot in the first movie that passes over his vehicle form where it would say "To Protect And Serve".
It instead features a Decepticon logo, and the phrase "To Punish And Enslave".
Yeah that’s a great shot.
I have to say, since I saw Transformers as a kid, that movie's Barricade has always been my favorite Bay movie design.
Nice my fav movie bay design is mixmaster
@@sneakrzzz8669 Yeah, he's cool too. It's a shame he had so little screentime
The movie 1 barricade was actually one if my very first if not my very first transformers figure.
I actually somewhat regret choosing A grimlock figure over the barricade figure 😭
And he's certainly an excellent choice!
Yo same he was fist figure I had but I don't have anymore sad.
same for me along with bumblebee from the same movie in a two pack(or three pack because frenzy)
only if you dount count knock-offs of brave exkaiser dash max
Me too
For us he was always a bad Cop, and we would have loved to see him in Transformers Prime...
Yush agreed!
No, This Barricade did appear in Transformers Universe!
@@heriablangel4419 thats true! In the concept art he even has the same pose as movie Barricade.
That’s a really dope design of him too. The one thing I never liked about Transformers Prime, was that it looked like a pre rendered game cinematic. I would have loved if he was in the show though.
Knockout would not be singled out as a Decepticon who disguises are a non-flying vehicle.
Fun fact! I met my wife of ten years because she wrote a fanfiction of movie Barricade! I left a goofy review and ten years later Barricade survived the scourge of Bay due to our love! With the movies rebooted, he will forever be immortalized in our hearts!
Cheers mate
Bet you named your mid Betty Katte lol So it can sound like Barrí Cade
@@lewisaino DYM 'kid'?
Ahhh that so nice to hear and funny to think about that fanfiction brought you together it such a funny ( yes I do read fanfiction my favorite so far "Prime rising" set in the animated universe) story, hope you to have a wonderful life
I feel that Barricade is going to become one of the big name decepticons, along side Megatron, Starscream, Soundwave and Shockwave.
Barricade is very recognizable with the "to punish and to enslave. . ." tattoo. He is Decepticon survivor throughout the Transformer saga and fight against his rival Bumblebee.
Only real fans remember playing Transformers Decepticons DS and hearing Keith David's sweet voice as Barricade
👍👍
I personally class ds barricade as the definitive version of barricades personality .
yoooooo
@@beaverscope8317Agreed

Talk about a"bad cop"
Barricade: *has an unquenchable thirst for battle*
Me: So I suppose he never drank Cactus Juice...
It’s the quenchiest!
He was just some random guy we let Michael Bay jam in, but we love him anyways.
Hey, even a broken clock is right twice a day.
Yeah Michael bay did some amazing work on the movie character designs and he should be applauded for it
All the mechanical details on all the bots is amazing
@@suze7937 Especially the design of the Autobot Knights in TLK. SO awesome.
@@ltb1345 yup but my favorite design is rotf devastator
Weird croch details and all respect that it took serious effort to make devastator move they animated him in separate pieces and spliced the animations together to create his scenes and that is why we really didn't see him for long
Barricade: Taking Police Brutality to a Cybertronian level.
The good bot bad bot routine?
Bot lives matter
@@matthew_natividad no, it's bad bot, worse bot
Barricade is easily my favorite movie decepticon. His fights with Bumblebee were always memorable because they were able to fight on roughly equal footing.
8:30 He's looking WIDE... Que the wide walk music.
It's really fun to see how dramatically some of these characters have changed, sometimes for the better, over the franchise's history.
Barricade is an example of a great name that, I think, was in search of a character worthy of it, and things finally fell into place for him.
Barricade is my FAVORITE Decepticon. The concept alone is a favorite villain concepg
Same here!
A fight between the cop version of the Bayverse and Prowl would be awesome
Especially if you set up in a backstory that they were once buddy cops.
@@levongevorgyan6789 You know, Bluestreaker reminds me of Barricade
@@ZirahPastel
Bluestreak and Barricade are ‘separate’ characters so I don’t see Blutsreak being Barricade
@@metal_fusion But remember that scene in Transformers war for cybertron siege where Shockwave told Megatron that They can turn Autobots into loyal decepticons? That's a good concept to use old characters from G1
@@levongevorgyan6789surprise surprise, we kinda got that setup in the War for Cybertron Trilogy when Prowl mentions a “dark chapter in Praxis’s history,” Praxis being one of Cybertron’s city-states. Sadly, we never got the head-to-head good-cop bad-cop face off…
Thanks to Michael Bay, Barricade became one of my favorite TFs.... actually Bay made TFs relevant to me again in general.
I didn’t know Soundwave was originally supposed to be the Barricade character. Now the way Frenzy launches from his chest makes sense
The yelling of "ARE YOU USERNAME: LADIESMAN297!?" back in the first live action Transformers movie TERRIFIED me as a child (I believe I was...seven? eight? Something like that), along with that ugly mug 'o his.
Barricade was probably my favorite character in the first movie when I was little. He’s still really cool, wish he’d get more love.
Heres something I'm surprised no one has thought of, reimagine rollerforce, groundhog, and motorhead as police vehicles and make them and barricade a decepticon police sqaud
Oh I thought of it, it would be so cool, also having swift be on the autobot side while barricade on the decepticon side
That is actually a pretty good idea. Having barricade as the leader of scouts kinda like the seekers but with ground vehicles
@@notrod0918 deception cop patrol
I had the idea of Barricade becoming a member of the Stunticons, maybe replacing Dead End, whose personality really never fit the group to me.
And, being a cop, or posing as a cop, he would be at odds with Motormaster in thinking he is the commander of the Stunitcons. Maybe making Breakdown a police car as well would made it interesting.
@@freakctc interesting, but I'd prefer him to be in a cop themed group instead of car themed
I bought the Micromaster Race Track Patrol back in 1990 when I was working near Seattle. Still got the quartet living in the City of Metroplex.
Causing mayhem I presume?
I love his redesign in The Last Knight, cuz he has knuckles dusters that read "Protect" and "Serve". Always loved his loose cannon cop characterization. Plus a Decepticon masquerading as a police vehicle is actually pretty clever.
The designers liked it too, the idea of making the police car a Decepticon.
@Daniel Ashar bin Mohd Fraziali * Vro.
You mean "punish and enslave" is what was on those knuckle dusters
Another thing is retooling his team as a secret police force
@@wolfgang6442 i think it was actually to punish and enforce
His design in the first and third films should be his definitive design.
He's so intimidating and freaky looking but also badass
I agreed, his bayverse design is cooler and much less a Prowl remold which I’m disappointed that modem artists are going with
It's crazy that in the first movie tie in he was voiced by Keith David (Spawn, Arbiter) but had more characterization in the DS version.
I will never like the Bayformers, but I gotta admit, when it got something right it really was right. Barricade may not have been the biggest presences in the movies itself, but the concept of bad cop was so good it was almost guaranteed to make Barricade the breakaway character from the era (to the point that I'm surprised no one put this archetype in center stage before).
Barricade, I may not like your movies, but I sure like you!
Basics on Deathsaurus and Vehicons soon? :)
Lord Starscream, True leader of the Decepticons yeah the whole Punish and Enslave thing in the first movie is the only joke that made me laugh
Deathsaurus has to be the most metal name in Transformers.
I'm glad he's officially an evil Prowl police car. And Im hoping Nitro Zeus gets the same treatment as a silver seeker with a Shockwave head.
@@bantuboi3131 Same, and I hope his name is shortened to just Nitro, because that sounds cooler.
@Daniel Ashar bin Mohd Fraziali * tf1 and tf3 seem to be the least hated films since fans debate over which one out of the other 3 are the worst
Movie Barricade was definitely my introduction to the name. So much in fact, that when I found out about Micromaster Barricade, I was straight up shocked, as I had never knew about the guys with the name predating the Movie character.
Me too, I was very surprised when I found out that he was a completely different character in G1. I felt the same about Blackout as well
@@renatogomes4886 Yeah, I felt the same with Blackout as well. I think also Bonecrusher, too.
@@Its_Charlie_Young I remember been a kid and searching "transformers g1" and a movie character name to see what would pop up and I was surprised whenever I didn't actually found anything. Like I remember searching for Leadfoot and I was like "hmm, what is g2?"
@@renatogomes4886 I'm assuming looking for Mudflap was a bit of a disappointment.
@@Its_Charlie_Young Not really, thanks to that I've discovered that Transformers Cybertron existed. I guess that counts for something
Barricade appeared in the game Transformers:Forged to Fight
Just like Bulkhead, you never known what will be the DEVINITIV version of a character... And as for your question Chriss,... He was allways an BAD COP to me😈....
I mean with Bulkhead they always keep him as a former construction worker from TFA, TFP, and in the IDW comics.
@@Dawnelldo2 I sayed that, because Bulkhead first ever apprience was in Energon, as an Crazy old man with Springer look ( not to mention an platform turining in to extra arms)
And just like Bulkhead, its proof that reinventing a character for new media isn't a bad thing.
@@NexusProductions-rz1sv true.... But not every reinvention is alwayes good... Just take a look G1 and Movie version of Skids. (not that Skids had that much luck with been a character besides IDW MTMTE, but you get the point)
Barricade is one o the best Characters Bayformers gave us!
@pokemonrocks1 lol no
The 'new' characters Barricade and Blackout are two of the only good things to last from the initial movie. Just wish they'd jump Blackout to a more standard series and design like they did Barricade.
@@SwiftpawWolffox I think fire brothers should do a blackout redesign
Agreed...
And he doesn't really have any character to speak of so that speaks volumes for how hollow the film bots are.
I was introduced to the energon version of the Character during the final few episodes of the show, but after the Movies, I always picture him as a bad cop who has a rivalry with Bumblebee.
Yes! Barricade has been my favorite Transformer for a while now, and I am so glad that you gave him the Basics treatment.
I can rest easy now...
(Pretty sure I'm the #1 Barricade Enthusiast in the TF fanbase.)
Here I have some suggestions for a few episodes:
-The narcissistic Autobot Tracks and by extent his female counterpart Road Rage.
-Decepticon emperor of destruction Deathsaurus/Dezaras.
-Megatron's number 1 fangirl Thuderblast.
2:52 I still have that Barricade toy, and its one of the best TF toys ive ever had the pleasure of owning.
Michael Bay googling characters to ruin: Oh there's an unknown one named barricade
13 years later
Oh I made him popular
Being an evil police car has become such a huge template for Barricade! Say what you will about the Bayverse, but you've gotta give it props for making him more than just a Micromaster - even though I'll always love those little guys. :)
I only know Barricade from the movie, unfortunately, but he is still one of my favorite deceptions. I love how he’s kinda like bad cop with interrogating Sam.
It’s kinda hard to believe that Barricade was a small decepticon that seemed to wimpy to a strong and deadly police car
The BayVerse Barricade in the DS made me love Barricade even more. Especially Kieth David voiced as him in the DS Version. I preferred the DS Personality of him.
Yes! I flee for you that the vocie I all way think of the character so when I read one of the new transfomers IDW comic that his voice
Him and Blackout were the standouts of the Bayverse originals honestly.
Keith David as the voice of Barricade in the movie games was awesome.
Whelp he won’t come back bro
@@nazishhussain2712 is it because of the current situation?
To me, Barricade was the scariest Decepticon from the 2007 cast. I was terrified of him when I was a wee boy!
I will forever know him for hunting down ladiesman217
I know it only got a small mention here but I really love that Dream Wave profile comic series. So many lesser known Transformers got their moment in the sun because of that.
I remember getting the all spark power Barricade that came with a red frenzy.
First time I encountered Barricade was the 2007 movie. Always thought he was a brand new character created for the film, never mind! Haha
While everybody's gonna look for ladiesman217, Imma try to find helicopter 4500X.
But that chopper was shot down 3 months ago in Afghanistan
@@matthew_natividad I know. My friend was in that chopper.
Striker Lillith well there’s gotta be some mistake
Check again and recheck
I like how barricade is loved by fans though he was absent and most of the time missing
Barricade is one of my favorite decepticon from the first movie. That Bumblebee chase scene is very memorable
For me, Barricade is the most basic Decepticon I can think of. Like, what else can you say about him that he is a Decepticon.
ARE YOU USERNAME LADIESMAN127, WHERE ARE THE GLASSES!?
Probably the best thing about The Last Knight
Whilst admittedly I don’t like the bayformers, I do love cop barricade.
I really love Barricade's design and everything. He is in my top 5 fav decepticons and i wish he was in Transformers: Prime.
I love Barricades personality and 07 design. Its one of my only favorite re designs, and is overall one of my favorite characters
I've reimagined the IDW style Barricade in some Transformers roleplay I take part in, especially his relationship with Swift. And, just as in the Siege toyline, me and my friend have called the Micromaster Runner to distinguish the two characters and not confuse them with one another.
No one:
Not even a soul:
Barricade: *”ARE YOU USERNAME LADIESMAN217?!?”*
*Ending part of the film*
Barricade: "Aight I'm out"
His history sound pretty really like in his younger days, Barricade was just a streets racer he was arrested by the police, they teach him a good lesson about life and responsibility many years later Barricade become a cop and his old demon came back to surface
Or a cop street racer
@@ilikeapples1824 that work too
@@emiliencorbillon187 ya know like a young officer who LOVES being a speed demon lmao
@@ilikeapples1824 yeah sound cool
The 2007 movie Barricade was my first one from the films, I just loved the "To Punish and Enslave" tagline.
My favourite incarnation of barricade was the one from the ds tie in game for the 2007 live action movie where he was played by Keith David, his role is more like an intelligence officer rather than a shock trooper like he was in the film, but I think that suited his police car form more. As a character he was also more cunning and while he seemed more easygoing, there were times some times where he would loose his temper which was nice
I'm a little late, but the 2007 movie was my first experience with the franchise, and one of the most memorable parts of it was barricade and his hunt of Sam. I never knew anything about his micromaster form.
I always found it funny how he yelled LADIESMAN217 in that loud serious voice
I like the live action because that's the first transformers ever seen I thought he died in the first movie but I was proved wrong in the last night
You might say Barricade is among my favorites. Except that his Siege toy didn't leave me fully convinced. I was expecting the evergreen design. Still, he remains my favorite.
great job as usual, but I think you really should have talked about his amazing character in the Decepticon version of the movie 1 Ds game.
Barricade is my favorite movieverse character after Starscream. Realized I have many representations of him and loved when they released the Siege version. He is so cool, the concept of bad cop should be explored a bit more in future Transformers shows and movies.
Hes actually in my top 10 fav characters lol
I didn’t know about the micromaster version until I picked up IDW’s Ultimate Transformers Guide Book.
I always wondered why he had one of Soundwave's casseticons
Except here he's more like a....CD-con? Stereocon?
I absolutely love his 2010s evergreen design with the dark blue and the white at his head makes him look like a stormtrooper, which is what you want for an evil decepticon cop
Great basics video on Barricade. He was my favorite movie Decepticon and I really enjoyed his character and rivalry with Bumblebee in the comics.
Thumbs up to you from me.
I really like Barricade's first movie look he just looks cool.
Don't forget that there was a toy of barricade in the 2018 Bumblebee movie toyline
I really like the idea of Barricade and Bumblebee becoming rivals, especially after they hyped up their rematch in the last knight and basically forget about it. His design from that movie (which was the inspiration for his evergreen design) was like a twisted version of Bee's design from the movies. They both turned into sports cars, but while Bee was bright yellow with black accents, Barricade was dark blue with white as the primary contrast, both have their insignia on their foreheads and both had the front of the car as their chest. Not to mention what people believed was a cameo from the bad cop based on the trailers from Bee's movie, solidified to me and many others that the two (like their leaders) are destined to clash again.
Wow great story on barricade didn’t realize he had so many forms! He his one of my favorite decepticons!
so the reason both barricade and blackout's heads resemble the decepticon logo is because they were meant to be soundwave originally thats interesting (the decepticon logo is based on the original soundwave toy's head)
Barricade was always a bad cop for me actually my first true introduction to the transformers series came in the form of the live action movie but I am not 100% sure which one but I'm pretty sure it's age of Extinction.
TLK Barricade legitimately has one of my top five favourite live action designs of any transformer, it's actually such a great design that encapsulates the ridiculousness of the original G1 series, while also touching on the gaudy edginess of the bayverse. I hope to god we get an SS version
*ARE YOU USERNAME LADIESMAN217?!*
- Barricade
I don’t know what your talking about-
I bought movie Barricade mainly for the pack-in Frenzy, but he's still a great character.
“ARE YOU USERNAME LADIESMAN217!?”
“What?”
“ARE YOU USERNAME LADIESMAN217!?”
Fan theory: Barricade is the movie verse herald of Unicron, which is why he can't die.
Prowl and reg human police:protect and serve
Barricade and deceptions:punish and enslave
Always loved the punish and enslave stickers on his police car in the bayverse movies
Everything i knew was a lie i thought barricade was a new character in the love action movie but i was wrong
He essentially was considering how little prominace his previous iterations had
