I’m glad things turned out the way they did. The Sunstreaker mold looks kind bland in red. The Sideswipe mold looks great in red, and black and yellow and as a fire chief’s car with a budget that’s out of control.
There are also Police versions for Sunstreaker and Sideswipe (but I think they are part of the Autobots until recently in the Masterpiece line, Cordon and Clamp). They are definitely assigned as undercover agents in Abu Dhabi or Dubai.
I know that Bobby Skullface has a KO of Tigertrack that he uses as size comparison (but is more a comic thing that he added), which he named "TigertrackS". He is aware of the name difference, but since is not the original, he could call it whaterver he wanted. But I wonder if maybe that's part of the confusion?
Ha, idk, I hadn’t clocked that but either way, it’s a point of confusion that has been around for ages and a lot of people get wrong. It is a confusing name, I guess.
Lambo COWNTASH. COUNTACH is pronounced as COOONTASH. Anywaythanks for covering Tigertrack, as he made his animated debut in the 1986 anime movie Transformers The Movie. He was first seen helping Huffer move a barricade. Sunstreaker was piloting or co-piloting a shuttle from Cybertron to Earth w/Prime, Hound, & the Dinobots
My selects has a black Red Alert head instead of Sideswipe’s. So I know have the proper Sunstreaker and Spin-Out is on his way. Please give us Delta Magnus, Black Ironhide and Blue Bluestreak!
Great Video Sixo!...congrats....and by the way, I have a cuestion and I think you’re the right person to ask.,...I have observed that the tendency is to take an autobot mold and repaint it as decepticon, but has it ever happened otherwise? you know, from decepticon to autobot?
Yeah, it's possible to still find him, although he's quite difficult to pin down these days. I had an eye out for ages before I stumbled on my copy, but they do still pop up.
I mean, he was an exclusive made in the early 2000's so it may be pretty hard to find for a reasonable price if the price for him has jacked up. Then again, it may have lowered due to people wanting to get the selects version instead-
@@chadderbug7587 I think if anything the Selects toy will drive it up. The original stuff doesn’t go down in desirability really. Same with Delta Magnus which is worth crazy money now.
@@SixoTF Well, there are those cases where investments could go down since said figure wouldn't be worth anything due to there being a way superior version you could get for cheaper than the arseholes on Ebay
@@chadderbug7587 oh absolutely - but that doesn’t really happen in the case of the exclusive G1 stuff is all; unless there’s a reissue of the same original toy then it tends to hold its value. Offhand I can’t think of any G1 toy that’s been negatively affected by a new version being released, although I guess it could happen!
It’s still crazy how the character models for Sideswipe and Sunstreaker we’re switched
Ha yeah, it's mad! Definitely one of my fave bits of TF trivia.
I'm so happy you say it correctly. Tigertrack, singular 👍

Mainline Transformers toys have never been better... and another fantastic upload! 🙂🐯
I'm looking forward to his upcoming Selects toy

Thst yellow sure looks sharp!
Just picked this guy up, what a looker!

I still don't have it in my collection but I hope it's the next one
Cool video! Love the opening theme music. I remember that being the music at every party in the g1-cartoon but does that tune actually have a name?
The original G1 Tigertrack toy needs a Vintage G1 reissue.
I have the Siege versions of Sideswipe and Red Alert also. This is a great review, Sixo!!
Nice! And thank you very much. :)

I love how in the early 2001's the people in the twin towers were erased 😂
Could you confirm that the blue shin stickers/tampos on the ehobby TT say "EP 45K", and not "LP 500S" like G1 Sideswipe and Red Alert?
Yep, EP 45K
@@SixoTF Thanks, mate. I don't know what special meaning that had for the toy designers, though. I just know it is distinctive.
Whoever disliked the video he is jealous of Sixo's photography skills :)
Can a collector still buy G1 Tigertracks? I have that orange and white G1 Astrotrain and that Blitzwing from 2015.

"It's recently been getting talked about online" Bro, we've known about it since June now-
Sure, and currently there are in-hand images of it arriving, hence it’s being more recently talked about.
