Eyebrow Overdose 4 Felt like my Endgame and every video after that has felt like Marvel's phase 4 and 5 Something not stated in the video: I still feel like I should finish Brawn, there's enough work that's already gone into it that it would be a shame to let that go to waste
Have you considered doing “regular reviews”? Like with no stop motion at all like a Thew or TDRQ video? Then you can reserve the stop motion for passion projects or shorts or scenes you think are just cool.
Hey lazy eyebrow. May I ask you something? I have been watching your Chanel for many many years. You inspired me to up my stop motion game. And I’ve just finished making my first ever stop motion review of seige Astro train. If you would burden me with the honor, may I please use my Channel to try and become a predecessor to your stop motion reviews. I will never live up to your name and it will take a lot of time and money to even come close to what you gave us, but may I please try 🫡
Ah man, your transformer videos were some of the best on this platform! It’s perfectly fine to cut off the major videos entirely for the foreseeable future and focus on your job that actually gives you money. We will always be here for you whenever you upload. Good luck with everything and we will look forward to seeing you upload again!
Aw man. I think the writing was on the wall for a bit but it still saddens me to see it confirmed. You're a pillar of the TF community and there will be a gaping hole left with your absence. But I understand 1000% why you must do this. Your family and health always come first no matter what. Hope you're still around in the socials and I look forward to your eventual return! Hey and don't worry about my tiny Patreon support, that's not going anywhere, lol. 👍🏽
Important responsibilities of life definitely come first, I respect you for being open about that with your audience. Hopefully all goes well with your job and I’m sure I speak for all of your viewers when I say we look forward to anything you have in store for us, no matter how much time you need to upload it.
It was an absolute pleasure to meet you in person...you tall bastard. I'm honored to call you friend and wish you all the best, you know all of us support your decision. "Stupid Cheap" will now be part of my vernacular. Hooah!
your the reason i started a youtube channel to post stop motion thank you and i love all of your videos no matter what happens if you have videos i will watch them
It was awesome having you on the panel, and hanging out a bit at TFCon Orlando, It was a blast! Understandable about the change to your channel, Stop Motion, and editing takes a lot of time. Your stop motion is phenomenal. Your a fantastic animator.
All good my friend 🤠 you do you and be proud of what you have accomplished. 👨🔧 I am just so grateful to have met you in your prime at the con. 🤖 I will stay subscribed and cheer when you make new content. Worked before, will work again 🫡
Do what you need to do man, but I’d like to thank you, had it not been for you I wouldn’t have gotten into stopmotion and met so many awesome people, thanks lazy eyebrow.
This is heartbreaking, I remember when you first came back and I was so excited. I’ve loved everything I’ve seen from you since, and hearing this is a punch straight to the gut. I started stop motion because of looking up to you, you’ve inspired so much of my life. Thank you Lazy, I hope your family is okay and I hope you’re happy with everything you do in the future.
LER, My sons and I have enjoyed your videos over the years and inspired us to make our own stop motion videos. It was a lot of fun. Thank you for making them. We wish you and your family the best. We only have so much time in a day and there are so many important things to attend to. I think you’re making a good decision. By the way, I’m liking the beard! I just started to grow mine a month ago, still getting used to it😅.
I feel this. I have been forever trying to get the season 2 finale of Universal Collision done. It gets daunting. You do what's best for you and your family.
@Sirdilophosaurusthethird2.0 Um...okay. Only ever saw one Godzulla film. That was more than enough for me. everyone got their thing. You ought enjoy whatever makes you happiest.
The end of an era in top quality Transformers content. The thorough and well thought out 'brake' downs of the figures combined with the top notch stop motion and writing takes serious talent so I always appreciated the hard work you put into all your videos. It is a shame to see you step back but your choice to focus on family and career is a respected and understandable one. I wish you all the best in the future and look forward to anything you choose to share in the days ahead. Til all are one!
So little figures, so much time... scratch that, reverse it. Family before everlasting gobstoppers, and maintaining your mental health is a must. Super cool that you were able to experience all of this through a shared interest in Transformers and Stop-motion. I miss cartoon carpool, love ya brother
We will all still be here if and when you make a return, whatever that would look like. Stop motion or non-stop motion, I am here for your personality and comedic style first :) I wanna say thank you for all the lovely videos you've put up. I started watching a good while back now and always looked forward to the next one. Cheers :)
I am in a Similar Situation but its sad to see you go, at the same time life goes on and priorities come first. Thanks for the years of Smiles and Laughter! and for Inspiration. Always will be waiting for the next video!
it was a pleasure meeting you in Orlando, was really fun hearing your panels. You also came at the right time, as the hottest it got was like 25-30c that weekend lol. Summers it's like 40c. Greetings from a resident from Florida!
Thank you for all the videos from all the years, your channel got me into collecting Transformers, no matter what, i hope i’m correct in saying this audience will support you! Truly thank you, you’ve gotten me through the lowest times and brought me higher highs.
You know what man. Other than me expecting a good 10 minutes of your time to read all my comments lol. I gotta say, I'm completely on board with your decision to put family first. It's a very "real man" thing to do, and it deserves, and has my respect 100%. That's very selfless of you to do. I can tell it's hard, but I can just about promise you, you're making the right decision, and you will get paid divedends for making it. You'll have time to do what you want, down the road. Putting the work in now, for a more secure future, is pure wisdom. I'm with ya! I'm actually going to turn notifications on for your channel, so I don't miss when you can upload. That's something I've NEVER done, because I hate getting 20,000 notifications a day, so you're the 1st, since it'll most likely be slightly less than 20,000 a day... Good luck my guy, I'll be here when you get back! Glad you got to do the con before the break, that was probably a great feeling.
Yeah he said that perfectly man! You can never get that time back that wasn't spent with your family. 10000% making the right decision. What you have made has been amazing and I have loved all of your videos. @@TheLazyEyebrow
I'm sorry about your situation but you're making the right call your family comes first and no matter how much we love this your family is more important. Best of luck good sir. I hope and pray it becomes easier for you.
I have posted on the others, after meeting some at tfcon 2019 and 2021, that I wish I could have made it to that tfcon... like 98% of the people I follow were there. I just couldn't afford it this time around. I would have loved to have met everyone. And I said Canada showed up in force with you, Ultra Primal, and Protoman being there. And you mentioned Swittcraft too! Stupid money issues... Maybe another time. I remember when you walked away previously... I had just followed you at that time. I understand and support your decisions. We'll still be here so take care of business. I am still amazed by your talents and appreciate you sharing. Thank you!
Aww, sucks to hear but totally get it. Started a new job on the 16th of January of '23, it'll be a full year now in a few days. I have acquired so many projects that I can now afford, now I just don't have the time to do them in or maybe just the energy. Really enjoy your perspective on the toys as we tend to share the same opinions regarding car forms, the brakes!. Honestly if you did reviews without the animation I would still watch but that's a bit selfish on my part. I know you say it's not over completely but I still wish you the best, you seem like a great guy and I've enjoyed the ride.
1. Congrats on acquiring your ultimate holy grail. MP3 Seeker mold, gotta give it the respect it deserves. Even folks who like the MP11 or MP52 molds gotta give props to the original. 2. Congrats on the new job, too!! It's great that you decided to do what you need to do for yourself and your family, man. I'm definitely gonna miss new videos from you, but the important stuff definitely takes precedence.
Damn this one hits hard cus I’ve been watching this channel for years so thank you for the great content you’ve given us and good luck in your future endeavors.
Man this year has been an emotional rollercoaster for me tons of my favorite youtubers are retiring, I found an affordable deathsaurus, almost out of school, new Puppy taking up all my time good thing its almost over right?
I just got done shoveling a few hours ago and I wanted to say how much great it is to see your wonderful experiences at TFCON. I understand how much you need a work life balance not to mention the amount of work you do on your videos is what made you continue to show your passion to the hobby. As one of the people who supported you the moment I started to collecting Transformers, I’d say please take all the time you need. Your family needs you more than ever and we will be here waiting while we continue rewatching your amazing content. May the new year be in your favor with you and your family.
You were the whole inspiration of doing stop motion transformations and transformers. Garnet they are not at masterpiece value, but it was still fun to do. So Thank you for inspiring me to do stop motion and making me want to continue to go back and watch all of your stop motion toy reviews.
It's ok man, we understand it, your health and being a parent come first, we will be here waiting, so give priority to those things and we'll be ok :) I hope you can figure out a way to keep your health, spend time with your children and still have a creative outing, good luck!
It really sucks that it has to be dialled back but I get it, thanks for everything you’ve done up until now and whatever you do in the future. Your health and family absolutely have to come first no question. Hopefully one day it can go to what it was or something better that helps you enjoy it even more but for now take care and see you around.
Hey man take your time, do what is needed to be done. If you can come back that is great, if not don't worry about it. I've been a fan of your videos and stop motion for years. Glad to hear you had a great time at tfcon in October. I saw you and a bunch of other youtubers there but never got the chance to say hi (it was also my first time, so I was pulled in all different directions). Looking forward to seeing you return.
OOOOh. You got to experience Ross toy prices!!! I check out Ross's toys at least once a month. Haaa. You found a Thomas transformer! It's great to have a friend who gets as excited about toys as I do. I'm so glad you got to go to such a cool thing! Heh. I like the first photoshopped pic...
It was so great to finally meet you and I’m very grateful that you like my Sideswipe/Sunstreaker print! I’m so happy I was able to chat with you for a bit too! (I’m Deacon btw haha) I’m sorry that you’re having to slow down content for a while, but it’s understandable. Family first! I do hope you’re able to find some time later on to make stop motions without burnout though. You’ll always have fans that will come to watch new videos! ;) P.S. Don’t listen to any negative opinions on CiCi’s…it’s great food to binge out on as long as you leave some time at night to keel over in stomach pains from all the grease haha!
Well this sucks, I was so curious on what you were going to say about legacy Motomaster and legacy menasor as a whole :C it’s been a pleasure watching your videos after all these years, regardless of whenever I agree with you or not
Love to see you doing what’s best for you man love to hear it. We love you and ur work if you can’t animate we love just you talking toys hope you feel better soon ❤
Brother, you will be SO very missed. Not sure you recall, but I’m (one of the…?) the dude(s) you’d chatted with hhhhhhyper-briefly a few years back regarding TF scaling; one day, I’ll be doing more stop-motion animation for fun, and pursue voice acting someday (see below for my inspiration to do so), but YOU set the standard, and I (well, we ALL) appreciate you for it. You MUST go to more TFCons; they’re always a blast. I’d been SO lucky to get a chance to do script readings with the panel guest Voice Actors (my inspiration to hopefully voice act someday), and, as you now know, the weekends are any TF fan’s dream. If it’s not too much for you, hopefully you’ll be part of more panels! Family, Health and livelihood FIRST… we’ll all always hope to see you at some point. Hopefully, too, at a future TFCon! Also… never say never… do what you can, WHEN you can… all in your time. We’ll all be here. Cheers, Brother… AND THANK YOU. \m/, 😊 ,\m/
Hi again, @lazyeyebrow! Quick note… Aware that you are coming into a quiet period, or going into retirement, but I felt compelled to message you and say that it would really be awesome to see a short using the “missing link” G1 Optimus prime if ever, you get your hands on him… I will be doing my own Stop Motion animations again finally on my own (experimentation; I have a long, long way to go before they are ‘quality’), but seeing somethingof ‘your’ caliber with this new version of G1 Prime would be (as expected) legendary… Hope all is well. In the meantime… Cheers!
MP Starscream Designer was Shoji Kawamori, famous mech designer from Macross (Robotech Macross Saga Chapter) that is one of the reasons of the hyper realism.
It’s a shame but you do what you need to do but I hope you’ll be able to return in full swing eventually but until then we will miss you even if you’re not completely gone but thanks for all the amazing and high quality content you’ve given us throughout the years.
Its ok, we understand. I wish you the best of luck with your future endeavors, and the same for your family. Thank you so much for your kind words and great times.
Stop motion aside, your TF reviews are excellent. You are funny, with a great natural sense of humor. I would like to just watch your toy reviews with your signature humor 🙂🙂 Hopefully that doesn't take too much time and you can maybe put out more videos in that format.
I definitely missed your videos, and loved your stop motion and the training bits, which inspired me to do the same. I hope your circumstances change, but understand how you feel. Best of lick to you in all your endeavors
Just know, that just because you don't have the time, to go through the process of sharing your hobbies with the world, it doesn't mean you don't have time for your hobbies for yourself. Ya feel me? Get into the trains again, you don't have to film you getting into trains again, just do it, for you. Show us what you can, when you can, as you feel like it. But do your best to still have some time for your bots, or trains, or whatever... It'll keep you going, and help with stress, all that good stuff.
Shame to see that you can’t make videos the way you have anymore, but I understand why and you’re being completely reasonable. I’ll appreciate any upload you make.
Idk if you’ll ever read this but I want you to know that you are a big role model to me and you actually given me the want to do stop motion. You were one of the greats lazy and I’m sad to see you go but I understand. If you want it’ll be a while but you actually gave me the idea to make a show that’s in the works. It’s not my first ever stop motion but it’s taking some time to do. The point I’m trying to make is I’m so happy I could have someone like you in my life to boost my confidence and happiness. I hope good things come in your future and I’ll be waiting for the next time you post.
Thank you for your amazing content so far you are a big inspiration to me as a stop motion animator and take all the time you need I know responsibilities come first and I respect that 👍
Sorry to hear that real life gets in the way but i def understand. Full time job and trying to put out content and spend time with family takes up alot of time. But it was great meeting you and talking a lil bit with ya. Wish it would of been more but it was great. Hopefully in the future things can change and you can put out more great content! Take care good sir!
Wow. I'm glad to have found your channel back in the day and I have always enjoyed your videos and your sense of humor. I have a channel as well that I started working on and kind of stopped doing anything on because of work. I hope at some point you can come back to what you were doing, or maybe collaborate with another channel? I did find Cardboard Bots from your channel, an I'm sure I found yours from another one that I watched .Hopefully 2024 will be a year of return for you. I thought you were working with another channel to do the Reanimated MP stuff? I will continue to watch your videos and wish you the best. Look forward to your SS Brawn figure and whatever else you may decide to produce. Take care and God bless!
It’s all good bro we get it esp since your job is doing the same thing as your hobby you get burnt out hard core! I got totally burnt out on customizing Joe back in the day it wasn’t fun anymore as I was doing a lot of commissions! Thank god Joe die not soon after I quit . then I stayed out of any hobbies till WFC & got back in to TF as they didn’t need much work to look good when I found Toyhax! So we know you will be back as watching your stop motion was always amazing to watch! Take a break but don’t be a stranger. Do update videos on how things are going once in a while!
Love your TH-cam channel, hope that you can find the time for uploads eventually. Its good that you know when its too much though. (the beard is looking pretty good in my opinion)
I'll miss your content. I know how frustrating it can to have all kind of awesome ideas in your head but lacking the time to create content. But I also know how your health can suffer through being overburdened. So hang in there and good luck
Fuck man, it sucks to see but at the same time, I am glad you are placing your mental heatlh and your family above anything else, so until then, I just want to thank you, since your videos are part of why I got back to collecting Transformers, what made me appreciate good alt modes and the idea of making stop motion, while I am not doing that kind of videos, I still want to get into stop motion, all thanks to you. Thank you for everything, and I really hope it all goes well for you, and if you ever feel like making videos again, do it once you have figured it all out, don’t try to overwork yourself That’s all I have to say, thank you and hope you can get back on track sooner than later.
God, it sucks to have to put hobbies aside, especially when it's one you know you love... But you're right to do what you have to. Glad to have been here and am proud to support wherever you go from here, whether that's "cleaning up and leaving" or otherwise. Take it easy. (Watching a little out of order, definitely still gonna watch your TFcon report!)
I wish you luck dude. Loved watching your stuff and i think we all know that you burning yourself is not gonna help you. Take a break and we all hope to see you soon :)
Dude, I really do wish I could've been there. Hanging with you, PPR, Deluxe, Bert, TJ, that woulda been pretty awesome! I woulda gotten a kick out of watching you guys handle your adoring fans lmao. I, once upon a time, was in rock bands that got pretty big on the regional scene. I would go on tours, and headline mid sized venues, occasionally playing at the big places, like Ozzfest or the warped tour, on side stages, that sort of thing. Basically I'd live in the back of a van for a couple months, bathing in truckstop bathroom sinks, and eating uncooked ramen noodles, day in and day out, it was quite glammourous living the rock and roll lifestyle, lemme tell ya. The thing that always messed with me was the fans. See, me being the kinda guy that collects toys, plays table top games, and reads comics, meant I was pretty shy, still am, I believe "geek or nerd" are what they call us? Anyways, that's why I have always hid behind a big drumset lol. I know how I felt when people would come up and ask for my autograph, or to take pics with me, heep praise onto me, etc. I sat there squirming and blushing to native American shades of red, wanting to escape back to my toy room or van floor lol asap, feeling completely unworthy, and uncomfortable, with all the attention. I wonder if you guys, being of a similar, shall we say, interest set, have the same sort of feelings, when you meet you fans? I caught so much hell from my friends and bandmates for how I'd try my best to escape the stage, without being seen lol. Anything similar for you my guy? I suspect, in your case, you actually handle it pretty well. I saw how comfortable, and engaged you were on your panel. You basically seemed to be the one kind of driving the discussion, and helping the others make their points. But, TJ, Deluxe, and Patriot? I bet they at least turn a little red with some embarresment... or is it just I'm a antisocial freak lmao. Little comumn A little column B, i bet.
Well, good job, dad, you do what you gotta do. Hopefully you'll find your way back when circumstances allow. But you're obviously prioritizing correctly.
I just got motormaster a few days ago and was waiting for your opinion on menasor to fully enjoy the figure but I suppose all good things must come to an end
Hey, you do what you want with your channel, and you focus on what makes you happy! It was awesome seeing you at TFCon, I was the Shockwave and 6th Doctor Cosplayer who recommended Iguanus to you lol You were awesome!
Just set aside 2 hours on Sunday for channel related stuff without pressure. I know what it's like being old, fat and with 3 kids under 11. If you completely stop, a few years speed by easily and it gets that much more difficult. I tuned into your reviews because you mention stuff others do. Scaling comes to mind.

If only traveling to Orlando was stupid cheap 😆
I will patiently wait for that project that involves foc Jazz
totally understand, if you did plan on making toy reviews with or without stop motion, i would 100% watch it and rewatch it tenfold
Why is everyone suddenly leaving none the less we all love you and your BRAKES

good luck in the future, I will still follow and then go through all your old ones to see what you think of ones I have not seen. cheers
Aww, sucks to hear but totally get it. Started a new job on the 16th of January of '23, it'll be a full year now in a few days. I have acquired so many projects that I can now afford, now I just don't have the time to do them in or maybe just the energy.
Really enjoy your perspective on the toys as we tend to share the same opinions regarding car forms, the brakes!. Honestly if you did reviews without the animation I would still watch but that's a bit selfish on my part. I know you say it's not over completely but I still wish you the best, you seem like a great guy and I've enjoyed the ride.
1. Congrats on acquiring your ultimate holy grail. MP3 Seeker mold, gotta give it the respect it deserves. Even folks who like the MP11 or MP52 molds gotta give props to the original.
2. Congrats on the new job, too!! It's great that you decided to do what you need to do for yourself and your family, man. I'm definitely gonna miss new videos from you, but the important stuff definitely takes precedence.
Nothing wrong with making this decision man. It's here when you want and we're always here!
Damn this one hits hard cus I’ve been watching this channel for years so thank you for the great content you’ve given us and good luck in your future endeavors.
Man this year has been an emotional rollercoaster for me tons of my favorite youtubers are retiring, I found an affordable deathsaurus, almost out of school, new Puppy taking up all my time good thing its almost over right?
I just got done shoveling a few hours ago and I wanted to say how much great it is to see your wonderful experiences at TFCON. I understand how much you need a work life balance not to mention the amount of work you do on your videos is what made you continue to show your passion to the hobby. As one of the people who supported you the moment I started to collecting Transformers, I’d say please take all the time you need. Your family needs you more than ever and we will be here waiting while we continue rewatching your amazing content. May the new year be in your favor with you and your family.
You were the whole inspiration of doing stop motion transformations and transformers. Garnet they are not at masterpiece value, but it was still fun to do. So Thank you for inspiring me to do stop motion and making me want to continue to go back and watch all of your stop motion toy reviews.
It's ok man, we understand it, your health and being a parent come first, we will be here waiting, so give priority to those things and we'll be ok :) I hope you can figure out a way to keep your health, spend time with your children and still have a creative outing, good luck!
It really sucks that it has to be dialled back but I get it, thanks for everything you’ve done up until now and whatever you do in the future. Your health and family absolutely have to come first no question. Hopefully one day it can go to what it was or something better that helps you enjoy it even more but for now take care and see you around.
Hey man take your time, do what is needed to be done. If you can come back that is great, if not don't worry about it. I've been a fan of your videos and stop motion for years. Glad to hear you had a great time at tfcon in October. I saw you and a bunch of other youtubers there but never got the chance to say hi (it was also my first time, so I was pulled in all different directions). Looking forward to seeing you return.
Good luck mate!!!
Was really hoping to see reviews on the full MPG Raiden, and or the new ultra magnus, but its very understandable 🫡
Very noble reason. Familia always first.
Just remember, It's not a goodbye, it's a " see ya later,"
23:05 for the announcement
i totally get it man, family ALWAYS comes first no matter what. We will be supporting you through and through no matter what.
Take care of your family and your health, dude! Would be cool to see you come back in the future!
OOOOh. You got to experience Ross toy prices!!! I check out Ross's toys at least once a month. Haaa. You found a Thomas transformer! It's great to have a friend who gets as excited about toys as I do. I'm so glad you got to go to such a cool thing! Heh. I like the first photoshopped pic...
take care of yourself and fam. Your fans will wait. And just enjoy whatever comes out!
It was so great to finally meet you and I’m very grateful that you like my Sideswipe/Sunstreaker print! I’m so happy I was able to chat with you for a bit too! (I’m Deacon btw haha)
I’m sorry that you’re having to slow down content for a while, but it’s understandable. Family first! I do hope you’re able to find some time later on to make stop motions without burnout though. You’ll always have fans that will come to watch new videos! ;)
P.S. Don’t listen to any negative opinions on CiCi’s…it’s great food to binge out on as long as you leave some time at night to keel over in stomach pains from all the grease haha!
Well this sucks, I was so curious on what you were going to say about legacy Motomaster and legacy menasor as a whole :C it’s been a pleasure watching your videos after all these years, regardless of whenever I agree with you or not
Love to see you doing what’s best for you man love to hear it. We love you and ur work if you can’t animate we love just you talking toys hope you feel better soon ❤
I get it bro, only time I get to play is when everyone’s asleep or I call in sick to work. Crazy what we’ll do and give up for our ladies
Do what you got to do man . Love your stuff !!!!
Man I’m really gonna miss seeing your stuff, i wish the best for you
Brother, you will be SO very missed.
Not sure you recall, but I’m (one of the…?) the dude(s) you’d chatted with hhhhhhyper-briefly a few years back regarding TF scaling; one day, I’ll be doing more stop-motion animation for fun, and pursue voice acting someday (see below for my inspiration to do so), but YOU set the standard, and I (well, we ALL) appreciate you for it.
You MUST go to more TFCons; they’re always a blast. I’d been SO lucky to get a chance to do script readings with the panel guest Voice Actors (my inspiration to hopefully voice act someday), and, as you now know, the weekends are any TF fan’s dream. If it’s not too much for you, hopefully you’ll be part of more panels!
Family, Health and livelihood FIRST… we’ll all always hope to see you at some point. Hopefully, too, at a future TFCon!
Also… never say never… do what you can, WHEN you can… all in your time. We’ll all be here.
Cheers, Brother… AND THANK YOU.

Hi again, @lazyeyebrow! Quick note…
Aware that you are coming into a quiet period, or going into retirement, but I felt compelled to message you and say that it would really be awesome to see a short using the “missing link” G1 Optimus prime if ever, you get your hands on him…
I will be doing my own Stop Motion animations again finally on my own (experimentation; I have a long, long way to go before they are ‘quality’), but seeing somethingof ‘your’ caliber with this new version of G1 Prime would be (as expected) legendary…
Hope all is well. In the meantime… Cheers!
MP Starscream Designer was Shoji Kawamori, famous mech designer from Macross (Robotech Macross Saga Chapter) that is one of the reasons of the hyper realism.
im sad to see you go, but i completely understand! we'll be waiting for you, right where you leave us! best wishes!
I’m ready for everything. Can’t wait.
It’s a shame but you do what you need to do but I hope you’ll be able to return in full swing eventually but until then we will miss you even if you’re not completely gone but thanks for all the amazing and high quality content you’ve given us throughout the years.
Its ok, we understand. I wish you the best of luck with your future endeavors, and the same for your family.
Thank you so much for your kind words and great times.
Would you consider going to TFCon Toronto this year? 🤔
Stop motion aside, your TF reviews are excellent. You are funny, with a great natural sense of humor. I would like to just watch your toy reviews with your signature humor 🙂🙂 Hopefully that doesn't take too much time and you can maybe put out more videos in that format.
Totally understand l. I do enjoy your live streams maybe that might be an option since no editing is required. Whatever you do we will be here 👍
I definitely missed your videos, and loved your stop motion and the training bits, which inspired me to do the same. I hope your circumstances change, but understand how you feel. Best of lick to you in all your endeavors
When it comes to ice cream, one always wishes best of lick
Man, and I just discovered you today looking for Legacy Menasor stuff. Best of luck to you!
Just know, that just because you don't have the time, to go through the process of sharing your hobbies with the world, it doesn't mean you don't have time for your hobbies for yourself. Ya feel me? Get into the trains again, you don't have to film you getting into trains again, just do it, for you. Show us what you can, when you can, as you feel like it. But do your best to still have some time for your bots, or trains, or whatever... It'll keep you going, and help with stress, all that good stuff.
You got to do what's best for you mate, all the best from New Zealand
Shame to see that you can’t make videos the way you have anymore, but I understand why and you’re being completely reasonable. I’ll appreciate any upload you make.
@@Sirdilophosaurusthethird2.0 okay?
it's completely fine that you have burnout. take time off when you need to. I'm fine waiting as long as it takes.
Idk if you’ll ever read this but I want you to know that you are a big role model to me and you actually given me the want to do stop motion. You were one of the greats lazy and I’m sad to see you go but I understand. If you want it’ll be a while but you actually gave me the idea to make a show that’s in the works. It’s not my first ever stop motion but it’s taking some time to do. The point I’m trying to make is I’m so happy I could have someone like you in my life to boost my confidence and happiness. I hope good things come in your future and I’ll be waiting for the next time you post.
@@Sirdilophosaurusthethird2.0that’s crazy I don’t care about your existence. That doesn’t mean I have to say it.
Goodbye, The Lazy Eyebrow, you've been an inspiration to me since i've started watching. Thank you.
That is SOME Model of Cybertron!
we’ll be here when you get back, chief
Thank you for your amazing content so far you are a big inspiration to me as a stop motion animator and take all the time you need I know responsibilities come first and I respect that 👍
Sorry to hear that real life gets in the way but i def understand. Full time job and trying to put out content and spend time with family takes up alot of time. But it was great meeting you and talking a lil bit with ya. Wish it would of been more but it was great. Hopefully in the future things can change and you can put out more great content! Take care good sir!
Wow. I'm glad to have found your channel back in the day and I have always enjoyed your videos and your sense of humor. I have a channel as well that I started working on and kind of stopped doing anything on because of work. I hope at some point you can come back to what you were doing, or maybe collaborate with another channel? I did find Cardboard Bots from your channel, an I'm sure I found yours from another one that I watched .Hopefully 2024 will be a year of return for you. I thought you were working with another channel to do the Reanimated MP stuff? I will continue to watch your videos and wish you the best. Look forward to your SS Brawn figure and whatever else you may decide to produce. Take care and God bless!
It’s all good bro we get it esp since your job is doing the same thing as your hobby you get burnt out hard core!
I got totally burnt out on customizing Joe back in the day it wasn’t fun anymore as I was doing a lot of commissions! Thank god Joe die not soon after I quit .
then I stayed out of any hobbies till WFC & got back in to TF as they didn’t need much work to look good when I found Toyhax!
So we know you will be back as watching your stop motion was always amazing to watch! Take a break but don’t be a stranger. Do update videos on how things are going once in a while!
Congrats on your new job!
Love your TH-cam channel, hope that you can find the time for uploads eventually. Its good that you know when its too much though. (the beard is looking pretty good in my opinion)
I'll miss your content. I know how frustrating it can to have all kind of awesome ideas in your head but lacking the time to create content. But I also know how your health can suffer through being overburdened. So hang in there and good luck
Fuck man, it sucks to see but at the same time, I am glad you are placing your mental heatlh and your family above anything else, so until then, I just want to thank you, since your videos are part of why I got back to collecting Transformers, what made me appreciate good alt modes and the idea of making stop motion, while I am not doing that kind of videos, I still want to get into stop motion, all thanks to you. Thank you for everything, and I really hope it all goes well for you, and if you ever feel like making videos again, do it once you have figured it all out, don’t try to overwork yourself
That’s all I have to say, thank you and hope you can get back on track sooner than later.
May you continue to be strong. Do what you must.
God, it sucks to have to put hobbies aside, especially when it's one you know you love... But you're right to do what you have to. Glad to have been here and am proud to support wherever you go from here, whether that's "cleaning up and leaving" or otherwise. Take it easy.
(Watching a little out of order, definitely still gonna watch your TFcon report!)
I wish you luck dude. Loved watching your stuff and i think we all know that you burning yourself is not gonna help you. Take a break and we all hope to see you soon :)
A very loving decision you made friend, very proud of you. You will be rewarded for your sacrifice :)
Dude, I really do wish I could've been there. Hanging with you, PPR, Deluxe, Bert, TJ, that woulda been pretty awesome! I woulda gotten a kick out of watching you guys handle your adoring fans lmao. I, once upon a time, was in rock bands that got pretty big on the regional scene. I would go on tours, and headline mid sized venues, occasionally playing at the big places, like Ozzfest or the warped tour, on side stages, that sort of thing. Basically I'd live in the back of a van for a couple months, bathing in truckstop bathroom sinks, and eating uncooked ramen noodles, day in and day out, it was quite glammourous living the rock and roll lifestyle, lemme tell ya. The thing that always messed with me was the fans. See, me being the kinda guy that collects toys, plays table top games, and reads comics, meant I was pretty shy, still am, I believe "geek or nerd" are what they call us? Anyways, that's why I have always hid behind a big drumset lol. I know how I felt when people would come up and ask for my autograph, or to take pics with me, heep praise onto me, etc. I sat there squirming and blushing to native American shades of red, wanting to escape back to my toy room or van floor lol asap, feeling completely unworthy, and uncomfortable, with all the attention. I wonder if you guys, being of a similar, shall we say, interest set, have the same sort of feelings, when you meet you fans? I caught so much hell from my friends and bandmates for how I'd try my best to escape the stage, without being seen lol. Anything similar for you my guy? I suspect, in your case, you actually handle it pretty well. I saw how comfortable, and engaged you were on your panel. You basically seemed to be the one kind of driving the discussion, and helping the others make their points. But, TJ, Deluxe, and Patriot? I bet they at least turn a little red with some embarresment... or is it just I'm a antisocial freak lmao. Little comumn A little column B, i bet.
You do what you need to do, Thanks for the amazing content Lazy.
@@Sirdilophosaurusthethird2.0 I love it!
Well, good job, dad, you do what you gotta do. Hopefully you'll find your way back when circumstances allow. But you're obviously prioritizing correctly.
I just got motormaster a few days ago and was waiting for your opinion on menasor to fully enjoy the figure but I suppose all good things must come to an end
Are you still going to do the review of all five of the stuntercons
Hey, you do what you want with your channel, and you focus on what makes you happy!
It was awesome seeing you at TFCon, I was the Shockwave and 6th Doctor Cosplayer who recommended Iguanus to you lol
You were awesome!
Just set aside 2 hours on Sunday for channel related stuff without pressure.
I know what it's like being old, fat and with 3 kids under 11. If you completely stop, a few years speed by easily and it gets that much more difficult.
I tuned into your reviews because you mention stuff others do. Scaling comes to mind.
aww, man.. not another one..
I wouldn't mind seeing more chug/uniclasserations skits when you come back.
Sad to see, but I get it - Just know that you are an inspiration.
Soon as you said 6% I said, "You were here in Jersey!?" Then came the caption and the airline carrier, which told the whole story. :)
