Wow this is a big one, eh? Both in scale and in MONUMENTAL MILESTONES etc etc. Matt's work can be found here: www.etsy.com/u... And you can support TRDQ over at / trdq
Just discovered this channel and I am fuckin' hooked. Love yer humour and I'd no expected to hear so many bits of Scottish patter on the internet. Long may you continue this madness.
Holy shit it's already been 4 years been here since the channel started as Twitter shorts and loved every second of it legit one of my favorite reviewers.
I loved the first episode of Zone, it’s so charming… even if it IS just everyone showering praise upon Dai Atlas because he’s just so great and how you need to buy his toy because it’s just so great and it’ll just make your life so great
I practically screamed at the end. Dai Atlas is nice, but I've always had a big crush on Roadfire. And with your lovely lighting setup, it's the closest I'm ever gonna get to feeling like I'm near that big gorgeous red all-terrain carrot.
Even when I went to Japan in search of exclusives I couldn't find Dai Atlas, he's rare there too, believe me I looked and looked for one. Came back with a Stat Saber in the box, they seemed to have all the big lads except this guy. A real treat to have him shown off on your channel.
The "Love And Let Dai" makes him sound Welsh 😂 I always liked the look of this lad! Was tempted at one point to get the LG EX Tomy one. Then, lack of space happened! Thanks for this one Nick and Gav!
Oh, a run-of-the-mill Dai Atlus review. I suppose I'll watch it while I wait for something unique like a video of two guys discussing if Transformers One looks good or not.
Hi Gavin. You've been producing some amazing videos these past few years. They're always such an informative and incredibly funny watch. Several years ago did you used to own another YT channel on which one of the videos on it featured a walk and talk and review about a TF comic called "The Smelting Pool"? If that was you I want to say how much I enjoyed that vid. And if it wasn't you? Ah, what the hell! You or Repugnus can take the cred at least until someone else steps up and admits to making that vid. 😉
Wow! I never knew about this lad and I always love seeing a new trdq review! Brilliant!!!! 🎉. Ps that base mode really is a belter of a thing best one ive seen! 😎🔥🔥👌
GREAT REVIEW! One of the toys I wish I had gotten. Just a simple, beautiful, fun toy. But, alas, I live in the U.S. So Japanese toys were TOTALLY out of reach for me in the 90's. Though I collected a few. They were mostly related to Godzilla, a close, personal friend of mine.
A name that essentially could just as well be called "BIG BIG". I dread when they make a new version of Dai Atlas and the other Powered Masters, only because I know those three are going to be an expensive Haslabs combo, if not just resell the toys they made for Japan only some years ago.
@@HiperPivociarz That was the one I was referring to, yeah. Just couldn't recall the name. Wouldn't surprise me if that was rereleased in some new look.
I love these Japanese exclusives. The look so different and awesome. Gavin, IF I can find you at TFNation, will you sign my copy of Thunderclash goes bananas?
I cannot believe Gavin made fools of us all, I never would have thought he would have the whole set available. More the fool's me, I suppose, I should have seen it coming, that sly man.
If Dai Atlas were ever to show up in another Transformers series, who'd you want to voice him? My pick would be David Fielding, the face & original voice of Zordon from Power Rangers.
Fun fact: Dai Atlas's japanese name doesn't have a space, its Diatlas, like that. This is of course an homage to how dire the price on these lads is now
my partner has the takara legends version of this lad with all the headmasters and whatnot, but i think it loses a bit without the motorized tomfoolery. i mean, he cant even roll forward while standing stock still, what’s even the point?
@@frankierandomnumbers7525 jokes aside, I'd love to see it. As much as I don't like the crowdfunding element from such a big company, all the releases have been great so far.
@@TRDQ Oh I agree wholeheartedly. Always a gross feeling that a company who lets their CEO walk away with 9 million while they lay off a significant amount of employees before Christmas, and THEY need the money? absolute shite.

The very first Welsh Transformer. Mrs Atlas must be very proud of wee Dafydd.

That you deserves an award for best ease-of-access to batteries.
I’ve always loved the JG1 fellas, when Kabaya was making those newer kits in the late 2010’s. Always wanted the tiny version of this guy.
The "Love And Let Dai" makes him sound Welsh 😂

The final on screen autobot leader in G1 Convoy, Rodimus Convoy, Fortress Maximus, Ginri, Starsaber, and this guy
Whoa man this is it. You did it! Doesn't get more impressive than this.
I’ve been a transformers fan for over half of my life and this is the first time I’m seeing these characters.
Happy for you for the surprise ending, hehe
Watched through the entire 4 year backlog of reviews in about a month and a half, love the videos Gav
I appreciate you waiting until after I acquired Legends Big Powered to drop this review. Tasteful as always Gav!
My skin is a light porridge color too.
depends how much sun I get on my extremities, but underneath the clothes is same
I find the aged white plastic look better than some of the brand new scarily white plastics.
There are some designs that make the yellowed plastic work, I actually kinda like it here

Good to know you can get repro treads for this guy.
I don't think I've ever laughed at a trdq episode so much
The jet is SO Ultraman I love it
My morn has improved ten gold, thx you gorgeous man
I thought that beak was a mustache and the duck was Steve Harvey. >.

They did make a new one, in the Prime Wars trilogy, it was a Japanese exclusive.
@@HiperPivociarz That was the one I was referring to, yeah. Just couldn't recall the name. Wouldn't surprise me if that was rereleased in some new look.
4th year of TRDQ and the 40th year of Transformers. Coincidence? I think not!
Reproduction rubber treads? That is a game changer.
I love these Japanese exclusives. The look so different and awesome.
Gavin, IF I can find you at TFNation, will you sign my copy of Thunderclash goes bananas?
Absolutely. I'll be at the TMUK table at The Forge most of the weekend
What a lovely chonker, looking forward to the next review. Weeeee!
LOL "whoooa I'm at the airporrrrrrt!"
That is one handsome big boy! And the toy is nice too
Wow he walks like something from a Hammer Horror, something I wish I could do.
I wish they would reissue this big lad and his two chums.
STUNNING!!!🎉🎉🎉fantastic

Greatest Welsh Transformer ever? I mean, apart from Beast Wars Injector, who is canonically from Newport, of course.
It's a sturdy toy. You can say it's Dai hard.
1:15 This genuinely made me gigglesnort. Missed opportunity to play MJ music for a couple of seconds.
Dai Atlas is fairly impressive
Best title

Hope you're having a good day

Yeah alright, fine: I'll just add another saved search on eBay shall I?
wow! it's idw accurate! gotta give thanks to takara tomy for giving fans what they want.

Man, imagine if they did base toys of the TFWiki... People would get so mad for no real reason!
Speeder is a spy changer.
Dude how tf did you get a roadfire in 2024. Congrats

Oooh....Brian May solo reference!
And very randomly I was listening to that album before tuning into this.
