Jokes aside,its great to see diamondbolt still Care about his transformers content from the very start of his Channel in the 2010's,which is cool as hell
It does right? It's sad to see Bolt not uploading any of those good ol Transformers content much but we all still subscribed to him. And on occasion, Bolt does come back and make some Transformers vids
1:15 LOL that Skywarp seller was me! Honestly saved me the hassle of going down the rabbithole of seeker collecting. I'll keep an eye out for Ramjet and Dirge for ya 😂
"Well, it finally happened. I ran out of money." Has to be the GREATEST opening line in any video I've ever seen in my life, especially as a (casual) Transformers collector as well. XD🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That was also specifically regarding RED, so I wouldn't be sure about that meaning guaranteed Animated Legacy stuff... but of course, just today the hasbro design team says they actually WANT to do Animated stuff in Legacy, and there aren't any rights issues holding them back or anything, so... guess my comment aged poorly.
I'm finally glad that Hasbro is finally moving on from just making G1 figures with the upcoming Legacy wave. That Armada Starscream looks sick and I can't wait for the Armada Megatron to be shown. I really do hope the rumored Studio Series does feature the WFC/FOC ones, that WFC Barricade is a dream to me. I've always wanted to own one, after playing WFC.
I've really been loving the Transformers toys this year. Legacy has been so awesome right now as it feels like anything can come from the line, which is very exciting. But my personal favorite figure of this year so far is from Studio Series. SS90 AOE Galvatron is so darn impressive. Not only because of how much of a glow up it is from the original voyager by basically inverting the entire truck cab instead of having a huge backpack, but also how fricking early he became available. Like, Transformers toys really do be wacky like that sometimes.
They can only do so many studio series figures until they get to Skids and Mudflap… both figures of skids and Mudflap, the ice cream truck and the cars.
Watching this just makes realize that by the time I get a job and other insignificant stuff like school and a house, most of these figures will be long gone and unless hasbro has a decently good line at the time, I will never have any of the figures I want. I also can't wait to see them do animated that's gonna be fun
Just wished he had done a Jobbythehong collaboration with reviewing the toys. But I know that they’re in different place on Earth. Man I’ve been watching the G1 season 2 of Transformers and I’m glad that I’m reliving my childhood.
Nice to see Toys Are Russ getting some love, genuinely one of my favourite Transformer channels. An excellent collection being shared by a really lovely guy.
Seeing your toy collection is such an awe inspiring sight for me. I really want to collect more toys, expand my collection and get that childhood satisfication that I could never afford as a child. Guess that's one thing about being a working adult, huh? Hopefully I don't run out of money though, that would be bad b̶u̶t̶ ̶l̶b̶h̶ ̶i̶m̶ ̶p̶r̶o̶b̶a̶b̶l̶y̶ ̶g̶o̶n̶n̶a̶ ̶r̶u̶n̶ ̶o̶u̶t̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶m̶o̶n̶e̶y̶ ̶l̶o̶l̶...
Good to see the distribution in Australia still hasn't changed. I tried collecting the Power Rangers Lightning Collection figures but due to the distribution I eventually gave up as a lot of the waves of figures never arrived at retail.
I just started buying transformers and this video helped me so much. I had no idea about the size classes. Thank you so much! I hope you do more of these every now and then for newer collectors.
I started collecting around POTP, and even then it was kinda casually. I’m glad to know that there are $100 decorated pieces of plastic that I can ask for my bday now 🙃
Another great video, I love it when you talk about TFs in your videos. Also, Legacy is extending past one year, listings have surfaced for Wave 5 and beyond, with characters such as Armada Megatron and TFP Skyquake being included.
Something I actually realized about the Walgreens exclusives is outside of the prime wars figures (brainstorm, Wingspan & Cloudraker, and Wreck-gar) and Earthrise Bluestreak they've been giving us medic characters with Minerva being the latest one. I feel like earthrise ratchet would have been there instead of Bluestreak but probably got refused so they didn't have the same character two years in a row
I personally enjoy watching reviews after I get the figure in question. It helps me see different perspectives on something I have or points out something I may have missed and helps me appreciate the figure even more. Early bird or stolen toy reviews don't really interest me all that much for this reason.
The problem with reviewing stolen figures is that the trend to change the release day of the figures a good example is with the wreckers line it was supposed to be original release on November but now because all of the figures have been review by people that buy stolen merchandise it got change to now i had to cancel all of my pre orders cause i don't have the funds to buy them now and probably won't be able to get them down the line either like with the coneheads seekers and other figures cause i won't pay ridiculously high prices for figures in the third market either
I love these types of videos I love hearing about some else’s interests and I relate to this video heavily as I collect Godzilla figures and I know the pain of spending my money on multiple variations of the same thing
I only just saw Wave One of Legacy in my stores and I've only ever seen Voyagers and Leaders in person like 3 months ago, but believe me that's a good thing when their prices are three times the price of the other guys that I spend my life's savings on.
14:39 Same, man. I would go to my local Walmart every day after my shift at work, and I would check to see if they had any figures. They had a SURPLUS of Netflix Bumblebees, and only *1* Netflix Soundwave in the entire thing.
Finding transformers, even the most common ones in South Africa is nearly impossible and shipping and aftermarket prices are insane. I hate being a figure collector here.
I’ve gotten very few transformers in the last few months just because they are almost impossible to find here in Ireland and they cost your soul to buy, I originally wanted just to collect the ss86 figures but they began making more than I could store and afford at the same time, I also collect Star Wars and Lego stuff so it became a priority thing for me but I want to get back at it
So glad to see my boy toys r Russ getting some love. He has such a genuine channel and you really see how he just loves this franchise and enjoys talking about some plastic
Thanks diamondbolt I just bought a bunch of Transformers on Amazon because of this video even though I told myself I was done collecting them. ….. thx for helping me get back to my addiction.
9:31 You do realise the Revenge of the Fallen Constructacons can combine into Devastator, right? Like, I assume you know. But the fact you don't touch on it at all, despite making the scrotum joke, has me second guessing myself. They even released the complete set of Constructacons in one box and called it Studio Series #69, you can't make this shit up. Plus there's a 3rd party upgrade kit including Devastator's balls, along with various other panels and tubes that make the combined monstrosity even more film accurate. I've displayed my Constructacons as Devastator ever since I got them all, and he looks great. Also saves a ton of space, assuming you have enough headroom to accomodate his height.
Sorry man it’s just that some bayverse fan kept whining about the Michael Bay Transformers story not completed and has made the petition for it trying to force Paramount direct the sequel to The Last Knight. He just being so annoying and asshole to the people on social media liking the new TF Cinematic story. But hey Paramount and Hasbro are ignoring the bayverse. These plans are pointless to bring back the stupid TLK sequel.
They just released a figure of tarn which I can't wait to get. I'm surprised they did since he's such a obscure. For those of you who don't know in the transformers comics tarn is the leader of the decepticon justice division and they torture and kill traitorous decepticons in the most disturbing and violent ways possible, and of course to autobots as well. Pretty mature stuff for a franchise for kids. Thanks for another awesome video diamondbolt. Hope you're doing well.
I love the studio series. As a kid I would go every week and blow my allowance on a Bayformer toy. Never felt true nostalgia until I picked up Studio Series Blackout. I just accept the toys are the best part of the movie franchise. The films are just bad, but I love the character designs.
It seems like everything in the collecting scene is taking ages to get released. 1/6 scale figures for example have like 2 year wait times from preorder pretty regularly. On the topic of transformers specifically though, have you seen threezero’s transformers figures? They’re seriously impressive.
10:10 tbh there hasn't been any transformers toyline in India sonce freaking wave 1 of earthrise. Hasbro for god sake release lefacy and studio series 86 in India already. PLEASE. 🙏
I remember Fortnite had a colab with Hasbro and announced a figure of one of the characters, which would not release until over a year after, and even then when the release date came they delayed it by another month, its super annoying
See, what I see happen is people push Bulkhead's head down and steal Silverstreak's head. Also, I've waited for almost 100 figures in the main Studio Series. They can't avoid Skids and Mudflap forever. And the distribution is horrendous here in the U.S. because I found Kingdom Galvatron and Ultra Magnus at Target around 6 months after their release. I got an Earthrise Optimus Prime at a bookstore months after his release. I saw a freaking army of Origin Bumblebees. Never once did I see over half of the Studio Series figures in stores. I got a secondhand Jetfire by a miracle, and I'm overjoyed that they are releasing an autobot 5-pack with Ironhide. Also Kingdom Pipes never showed his ugly mug around here. We just get clumps of the same few figures.

My favorite parts of these videos is seeing all the funny ways Adam poses his toys for certain shots.
Don't tell him that ankle pivots exist
I like to imagine Adam will soon go full Breaking Bad just to afford more figures.
"Well, it finally happened. I ran out of money." Has to be the GREATEST opening line in any video I've ever seen in my life, especially as a (casual) Transformers collector as well. XD🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
“I can’t wait to see what happens when they do animated.”
that is some optimism right there
to be fair, one of the toy designers on a hasbro livestream said animated would be getting something
That was also specifically regarding RED, so I wouldn't be sure about that meaning guaranteed Animated Legacy stuff... but of course, just today the hasbro design team says they actually WANT to do Animated stuff in Legacy, and there aren't any rights issues holding them back or anything, so... guess my comment aged poorly.

Even if they release wfc/Foc, doubt they can beat planet x vulcun for grimlock
I was also wanting a barricade figure but I didn’t care if it was him or breakdown
A official omega supreme would be cool
Don't care, still mad about the TFP disrespect in that line
Ikr Armada fans rejoice
And bros dreams were realised with Barricade being the 2nd figure from Studio Series Gamer Edition
1:20 same energy as Tobey, Andrew, and Tom all finally meeting eachother and hugging it out
Been watching you for a few years now and seeing you go back to transformers toys feels so nostalgic, great content man keep up the great work!
Ik, it doesn't feel like a year since then
Its like visiting an old friend

18:00 - I have entered the DiamondBoltverse.
I’m not even a fan of Tranformers and yet I find these videos super entertaining, I think they bring out the best in diamondbolt.👍🏻

Buy one figure then fall into a rabbit hole. That's always the story when the madness starts.
5:56 “I can’t wait to see what happens when they get to Animated.”
And now I’m sad, ‘cuz Hasbro’s never gonna do that.
Which is a great thing too. Next the need to forget all the trash that came out of Japan in addition to the shitty animated.
I come from the future
They apparently are

8:36 “ARE YOU LAIDIESMAN217!?!”
6:14 obviously, so they can have Bulkhead's head in bulk
I hope the Transformers toy line does not reach over-saturation due to having way too many different lines released at the same time.
I did not understand nor recognize 90% of the things shown and said, but I really enjoyed this.
Nice to see Toys Are Russ getting some love, genuinely one of my favourite Transformer channels. An excellent collection being shared by a really lovely guy.
This video made me want to get every studio series figure. thanks for the new addiction man

I’m working in china right now… they have plenty all over the places…
“Australia just got them now”
Italy and most of Europe: you got them?
I still have all my old ones from when I was a child , Classic memories
6:06 in my experience, people just push the heads down, they don’t actually steal the heads, though that would be hilarious
I just started buying transformers and this video helped me so much. I had no idea about the size classes. Thank you so much! I hope you do more of these every now and then for newer collectors.

TOTALLY agree with you regarding Legacy!!
This year, I've grabbed Blaster, Kickback and Leader Class Galvatron....and they've been worth every penny!!
0:10
This is exactly why I enjoyed it.
That line about animated in legacy aged like milk. We got Prime, Bee, and Prowl, and who knows what else is coming?
10:02 hello I live in canada, did you know they still have a kingdom rhinox thats been there for AN ENTIRE YEAR AND THEY DECIDE TO NOT BUY ANY STOCK
All the contructicons are in the movie, despite most of them being in vehicle mode like Overload, Hightower, Scrapmetal, and Scavenger
12:20 That figure still isn't in stores, a couple places got lucky but everywhere else is bone dry
This video definitely feels more than meets the eye .
Excellent sequel! I enjoyed this one just as much as the last one! And if you do rewatch all the Bayformer movies, will you do a video on it?
13:03 my only question is how
Finding transformers, even the most common ones in South Africa is nearly impossible and shipping and aftermarket prices are insane. I hate being a figure collector here.
Man, this was a great video, also as a collector in South Africa I completely empathize with the struggle of retail transformers.
I’ve gotten very few transformers in the last few months just because they are almost impossible to find here in Ireland and they cost your soul to buy, I originally wanted just to collect the ss86 figures but they began making more than I could store and afford at the same time, I also collect Star Wars and Lego stuff so it became a priority thing for me but I want to get back at it
I live in Ireland too; Smyths Toys has been great for me!
I want an episode of this serie every year.
You should totally make this an annual series, it would be so much fun to see how things change over the years through your eyes.
I am so happy that Dimond Bolt did another one of these because I really like the last the world of Transfomers toy's video
So many boxes unopened. So many Transformers coming in all the time. My room gets smaller and smaller as my transformers come in and I love it 😀
That’s been my problem for years now
I still have all of my bay toys from 2007-2011!! Truly loved the hasbro toy models!
Studio Series got me back into collecting after a long hiatus, and damn I forgot how fun this stuff was.
Cant wait for part 3
Glad to see you still enjoying your Transformers toys.

It is unknown for how long Legacy will continue, but there are listings confirming that line will still be releasing new toys next year

9:31 You do realise the Revenge of the Fallen Constructacons can combine into Devastator, right?
