SK could also potentially refer to Shirako. It's a little more far fetched than what you said, but he does have an S and a K in his name and that is his car
There actually is a scene where we see an RD-S1 transform out of car mode in Ignition, in the part where what would eventually become Sparky latches onto Vert's Deora II! I always felt similarly to you, though, in that I never quite understood how you'd place a Drone in a prebuilt car and then have its parts still attach to it- RD-S1s pretty much universally have parts from the RD-06 on their bodies, namely the glass of the windshield and parts of the car's rear cowling/body, which of course doesn't quite match the RD-02s. Overall, what the S1s and L1s do is an interesting sort of design compromise where, rather than transforming outright into the entire car, Drones just make up significant chunks of them. Overall, excellent video! It always really strikes me just how much obvious effort and care went into not just the Drones but both Highway 35 and Acceleracers. The shafting they all got was undeserved.
Duuude... 16 years later and yet still here we are. Amazing video, I've been a fan since the release of this series and I didn't have any idea about the drone language being able to translate, that's amazing man. also a big shoutout to the few Acceleracers fans remaining.
Even now this series surprises me. I had no idea Vert's name was engraved as tread on his racing boots. And the fact that you can translate all drone text you see on screen??? Why did Mattel discontinue this series???
@@ashton9699 yep some corporate assholes who were scared that this would out due actual hot wheels so they cancelled out of fear of popularity. Which is stupid because this could have made them so much money.
THIS is fantastic!!! Excellent job. Really , this is a must see for anyone who enjoyed the Acceleracers. Can't say enough good things about this. Well put together & well researched.
I swear, Mattel keeps teasing us with the fact Acceleracers used to exist! Like, a graphic here, a similar recolour there (Or that one car that looked EXACTLY like a Drone’d Nitrium), or heck, one of the slot car packs they released a while back was literally a blue care with orange accents vs a black car with green accents. Coincidence, I THINK NOT!
Just a few months ago I scored a Wave Rippers set with Deora II in it. like, if they're gonna still make and sell WR and ACCEL toys they might as well finish the series??
Karma looks just like Galorum aswell So like, What is the family tree? We assume from World Race hes a only child and has a single dad Karma isent implied to be family But theres a lot of similarity, and we dont know when mom died
Actually, ALL of the female characters in Acceleracers look very similar to one another, even Lani. As for Vert’s Mother, her whereabouts are completely unknown. A lot of people think she’s deceased, but then again, she could be alive, but divorced.
8:24 What if... here me out, the vehicles the Teku and Metal Maniacs drove into the Drone Headquarters were not destroyed and Kadeem decides to make copies of their cars in drone formats, including his own. Each version would have abilities more than the standard drones. Teku Drone Cars [mainly Battle Spec, Bassline, SpecTyte, and Chicane] - these cars would use the sonar to send other drones and even sweepers to capture the other drivers. In other words, they can use sound that only drones can hear. To defeat these Drones, the drivers would jjust have to be fast enough to take them out before they sound off. Metal Maniac Drone Cars [mainly Jack Hammer, Hollowback, and Piledriver] would be given the stuff the Metal Maniac cars are equipped with. Sacrificing the ability to fire energy blasts to have a shield to allow them to attack drivers directly. They will be the most aggressive drones and attack along side the normal drones, sometimes even acting like shields. To defeat these drones, the drivers would have to attack them from behind. Finally, bringing back the clip cars from World Race with the ability of flight. These versions would have the wings, but also the jets. The vehicles would be able to fly and drop stuff on the track to force drivers to evade, but also can evade ground based obstacles. They would however be vulnerable to be struck out of the air and wouldn't be able to avoid obstacles normally driving cars wouldn't deal with, or if tight spaces are a thing, they are useless in. Similar to how Vert and the others dealt with them in the world race, Grab them and swing them into an obstacle, or have them crash into each other and they are toast. Kadeems car was seemingly destroyed, but what if it was rebuilt. Krazy 8 - Drone edition, would have the Teku sound to jumble enemy drivers tech, making it hard to hear others, The Metal Maniac weaponry, Drone energy blasts, His vehicles Dune Ratz signature ability, Clip Drones ability of flight, and be able to take more hits than a normal drone. A more durable Drone Car. Gelorum' s car easily is a fairly durable car, so who is to say Kadeem wouldn't have the same durability.
9:58 yeah, it would make sense, kadeem would use the cars the other drivers left behind as a way to make his drones become even stronger, faster, and better than ever before. Maybe these Drone Variants of Teku and Metal Maniac Cars would have been a sneak preview of Episode 5, before it was canceled. Just like Silencer Driver Reveals
i miss his show and my god has the animation not aged well by today's standards, but the art style and concept has. i wounder what it would look like if it was remade with today's open srouces for 3D animation. i mean some guy actually animated the clone wars scene of obiwan and anakin by a camp fire with the unreal engine
At the fps of the recon drone shown in the junk realm(before got shot by the x88droid), the text translated into"weldible eitldmnt"which I found hard to understand. Check that out in the film and it is clear to identify each letter, PLZ!
ngl i saw the racing groove video about the 2011 truck dron and i came here found your video did not watch the end found ris-2009 freaked out was about to post i found something then i watched as you unceremoniously said u had found that truck and disifered it. :/
The effort they put into the show still surprises me.
And for it to be cut off so soon feels like the ultimate betrayl
ok... i love the conspiracy meme of Vert's mom being Gelorum. Imagine if you went a step further with these gag conspiracy.
SK could also potentially refer to Shirako. It's a little more far fetched than what you said, but he does have an S and a K in his name and that is his car
Very good point! I actually had that in the script at one point, but I decided against it later on. Still definitely a possibility
8:10 either Monkey and Vert are related or he's doing some weird stuff to picks of Vert's mother 😂😂😂
Fans: Did you die??
RWK: I did, but I liiiiiived
HOLY CRAP
I thought both of your guys channels died 😂 glad to see u guys at least still active
Yo I. Love Your thinking patterns.

Because it was too good. Seriously, that's what happened 🤦♀️🤦♀️

Thank you so much!
My god. He’s returned. Again.
Acceleraccers still relevant in 2021
5:30 An in-universe explanation for the sweeper drone's Heads Up Display still saying RDL1 is, it could run on the same firmware as rdl1.
10-4 Dinosaur
Alright I died XD
The designer for porkchop had a hand in this 10-4 is a trucker expression XD
I still have the drone sweeper hot wheels toy

Honestly, I myself thought that RD-L1 stands for Large, and RD-S1 is Small
YES, MORE ACCELERACERS CONTENT, ur a king man
Acceleracer content has returned :DDD
Now that 4K versions of the movies are out... A redo is on the books perhaps?
When I first saw the main drone his noise and his vision reminded me of the predator when I was a kid
WOW DUDE, this video was so well edited and it's very interesting, congrats for such a good and creative video 👏
8:10 that fucking killed me
yo that vert's mom x gelorum theory is super sick
Karma looks just like Galorum aswell
So like, What is the family tree?
We assume from World Race hes a only child and has a single dad
Karma isent implied to be family
But theres a lot of similarity, and we dont know when mom died

This is something I didn’t see myself being interested in when I woke up but now am
This is really good man keep it up
0:42 need myself a racing drones type beat lmao
you should try seeing the 4k remastered movie version, maybe you could see more texts of the movie that way
Awesome work 🙏

4:09 "how to say (ok boomer) without saying it" 10-4 dinosaur
OMG H EUPLOADED
I still don't understand how this show isn't bigger ):
“Verts mom picture in monkeys room” sent me lmao shit too funy munkhey gettin some
Hope has been restored to the world
@ 7:55 I thought I was the only one
At the fps of the recon drone shown in the junk realm(before got shot by the x88droid), the text translated into"weldible eitldmnt"which I found hard to understand. Check that out in the film and it is clear to identify each letter, PLZ!
An rd-s1 transformed in ignition and got taken through the portal with vert and became sparky later in the series
woah hello there
The drones would beat the shit out of ALL other robots armies
The only game... is project acceleracers a fan made hot wheels game really great btw
wait... monkey has a picture of verts mom? easily the most shocking thing.
YOOOO
Is the acceleracers website still up?
No unfortunately but It’s archived on the wayback machine
Of all reused assets to put in Monkey's room, WHY DID THEY USE VERT'S MOM
When i goes to the link on the reddit post, it says "this content is no longer available"
if racing drones have codes, do silencerz have ciphers?
Here's a theory. What if before the Acceleracer Movies, the Tecku were called Street Kings?
They dont make cartoons like that anymore
2:26a.m. 6/24/2022
10-4 Dinosaur
What if the robots fusse with there car becoming one entity
Sharako is the SK
Like what if the drones once they drive a car they become one with it
Thousandth subscriber lets gooooo
You forgot kadeem
Gelorum is verts mother
ngl i saw the racing groove video about the 2011 truck dron and i came here found your video did not watch the end found ris-2009 freaked out was about to post i found something then i watched as you unceremoniously said u had found that truck and disifered it. :/
