This is the first character in my collection that I’m actually swapping out. This one looks so much better than the BadCube one, and that figure is still really good. I hope it has ratchet joints and a fun transformation!
There's no cramp in DalianJJ's chronometer. The speed their breezing..those combiners will be hammered out in no time! Badcube Grump, looks like steaming dump, compared to Variator. Fans Toys for the win!
I will never understand people like you who feel the need to insult another company's figure just because Fanstoys you seem to like better. From what I've seen recently and in the past, Fanstoys has been criticized for putting out a few "steaming piles". So in other words GROW UP !
No not necessarily, they don’t release in a certain order, they release figures at random, even though they’re numbered they won’t be released in that order
Actually super excited for this guy hopefully the transformation is easier than the bad-cube ( grump ) now if only Xtransbots would release A-bad-don ... think I would be good for awhile 😂
@@Jermainesutton43 And how am I meant to know you had it at Botcon? Become a mind-reader? Besides, the blues are mismatched in the damn video, so clearly the paint isn't "very nice", wise guy.

They have the best sculpts and materials. I personally like how they’re not afraid to stray a bit from the cartoon model in order to achieve a more heroic look. Like look at their Jetfire vs. Takara’s, or their Cyclonus vs. XTransbots. In most cases it’s night and day.
@@Jermainesutton43 Did I say I didn't like it? Nope. Not even once. I have a lot of FansToys products. A lot of them have arrived with issues, and others have quickly developed issues. FansToys has a track record for putting out garbage engineering, especially recently, and also has a track record for idiot fanboys like you defending them. It's almost like I can hope for a good product but not be a blind fanboy in the process by defending everything a company does. They're a toy company, not Jesus Christ.
Well off of the top of my head, stuff for which we only have limited or outdated options that don't fit the modern aesthetic. Top of that list would be Windcharger to round out the minibots (I don't hate MP-45, so I'm less concerned about a FT Bee, but I do like their Cliff so I would probably buy it...). I would dearly love updated versions of the Datsun mould. Ratchet and Ironhide definitely belong to that weird period between the old Hasui designs and the modern stuff and need an update (I'd also include Wheeljack in that). A better Sideswipe wouldn't go amiss either. Tracks and Rodimus are crying out for improved versions. There are no toon accurate Coneheads (although I assume they are coming from Takara). I'd even love to see weird things like the Centurion droids. Ratbat. Kranix/Arblus. A number of their existing figures could really do with 2.0 releases as well. Hoodlum is junk, Rouge could be better (in fact most of their movie Autobots aren't great for me), Spotter isn't toon accurate, neither are the Dinos... We already have MP-10/MP-44, TE-01 and two versions of Magic Square for Prime, so there's something for everyone. Hell, I'd rather see FT tackle Megatron before Prime. As much as I like some of MP-36's design, there's definitely room for improvement. My original comment could have been worded better to be fair. I didn't necessarily mean things for which we literally have no representation, but more those that aren't great or are under-represented.
@@Dokken1975 I'd be more than happy with FT doing them too. I just wish they'd go back to expanding on the 'toon character designs rather than strict adherence.
I just need them to rerelease their willis/hound figure and i’ll have all the autobots once i get him and this gears. I got the takara masterpiece hound but it might just be the worst figure in my collection lol
Great, so the blues are mismatched. What the hell is going on at your factory, FansToys? Cliffjumper and Powerglide both had mismatched reds, and now Gears has mismatched blues. And let's not get started on the non-existent replacement parts availability for Pipes.
Windcharger, Tailgate and an actual great looking MP scaled Bumblebee with a good robot mode would be great in the future.

Agreed. The Badcube one did a good job in the mean time though.
I can’t wait to do a Stop Motion with this guy🎬📸🎞️‼️‼️‼️
I like that they have done skits from the original show with the figure that’s about to be released. Great job Fanstoys keep up the great work.
I hope Fanstoys do a Wind charger masterpiece
Thats cool they done a skit with the cartoon more please Fanstoys i enjoyed that
Would love a Windcharger to complete the FT Minibots set ❤
Trust me they'll get him out to us

@ultramag0343 - I wish I could upvote your comment more than once!
Keep rolling them out FansToys!
Really outstanding figure in both modes with great articulation capabilities. Thanks again, great work guys, hugs from Hungary! :)
Getting my popcorn ready.
Omg they keep dropping new figures can’t keep up 👌
This must mean that Scourge can't be far behind...
No not necessarily, they don’t release in a certain order, they release figures at random, even though they’re numbered they won’t be released in that order
They weren’t low @ all. Looks decent too…
He was literally right behind!! :D
@@Ansem458but he's in the video
Gears is due September, Swerve October and Scourge December.
Let’s GOOOOOOO
Amazing looking figure. Now where the god dang flippity floop is Windcharger?
Actually super excited for this guy hopefully the transformation is easier than the bad-cube ( grump ) now if only Xtransbots would release A-bad-don ... think I would be good for awhile 😂
I can’t wait … very nice paint and it’s heavy awesome figure
How would you know? You don't even have it yet.
@@GareWorkshe had it in hand last week at Botcon.
@@GareWorks because I had in my head at botcon that’s how I know …any other question what want to ask ..smh

*sigh* aren't we passed single-piece front hips skirts now? Aren't we passed front hip skirts?
Im gonna guess everything shown so far is already finished and just waiting to release it.
Name: Gears. Faction: Autobot. Function: Transport and reconnaissance. Vehicle mode: Ford 4x4 pickup truck. Body colors: blue and red. Motto:” Nobody wins a war… …somebody loses.”
Meet Gears from the episode: Changing Gears. Synopsis: To drain the Sun for power, the Decepticons capture and alter the grumpy Autobot, Gears.
As usual I can’t wait to get this guy!
Nice, now where's Dead End?
Coming out in 2024
this looks amazing, looking forward to it
Not sure what to think about this one, but it will go into the G1 collection.
MY BOY!!!! 💖💖💖
Yep 👍
Sweet
We need you to do a Wheelie, that would be fantastic
😍
YESSSSSS LETS GO BEST COMPANY EVER
Best at what? Garbage engineering?
I agree!

Nope, we’re getting him at least next year
@@ViewpointProd… source?
Boring. There are already so many options for MP Prime. They're better off concentrating on characters we don't yet have.
Such as…?

Hahaha 23 hours waiting ok 😅
It’s time for Misfire, Slugslinger, and Triggerhappy!
I have a feeling they'll come from either XTB or KFC. Possibly Maketoys if they recover long term.
@@ianfortier6796probably right, but I’d rather Fans Toys do them just because I’m a huge fan.

God I’ve had a preorder in for so long I can’t wait, all I’m waiting for now is Fanstoys to make a Windcharger and my g1 cast will be complete

What is the issue with pipes? Mine has no issues.

You know that’s not even a backpack, right? That’s literally what his character design looks like in the cartoon.
Stop bitching for no reason.
