This is it. To every one of my viewers out there, thank you for watching. I hope you take something from this, as I have in this three-year long journey. Until next time... See you in the next video ;)
absolutely stunning performance as Black Arachnia. I need someone who's able to do her voice, as it is far from my vocal range, but I wouldn't even know how to go about arranging such a thing. It was a delight to watch, and wonderful to see such an authentic take on her character. Thanks, (>'-')>
The depth of this video is priceless. It all started with simple fights between figures representing different generations of beloved characters and ended with a psycological analysis of what these toys mean to us.......fans. Man, you are a *LEGEND!!!!!*
Its unbelievable to think how this started off as some fun battle royale and turned into a series with an ending thats honestly deep and connects with us, reminding us to always appreciate what gave us such fond memories. Truly an amazing series. Also seeing prime starscream doing his dance was amazing.
The ending really touched me. I was a huge Transformers fan as a child, but had shut it out of my life for many years, until my former partner causally reminded me of it. I’m back to being a big fan, and have even found some of my old toys. Sadly, my partner passed away this past September, but my reignited love for the franchise will be a way of remembering her wonderful influence on my life. Thank you so much for this video, and the whole series.
Thank you guys! The time has been very kind to me, I got the support and love I needed in that awful time. Thanks everyone for the likes and kind replies :)
When I was younger I always had to pick and choose my Transformers. I couldn't have every character I wanted or saw on the shelves. I had no concept of waves, toy-lines, continuity, or uniformity in my collection. But that never dampened my desire to tell stories with the ones I had. Creating grand adventures through the stars, great battles visible from Cybertron's orbit, and defining moments for every hero and villain I had. Every figure was special because they were the ones I had. I created explanations for the discrepancies or absences. Starscream not around? Well, Megatron already dispatched him. Only two Dinobots? The others are on a mission elsewhere. Two Optimus Primes? This other one's an upgraded form! Transformers have been something I loved for as long as I can remember, but Combiner Wars was when I really began to foster my interest in storytelling through them. Silverbolt was my introduction, followed closely by Swindle. I saw brilliant stop motions online, ones with all the depth of character and intense action of Transformers Prime, the one I grew up with. I started writing down all my ideas for my own stop motion, drafting timelines, scripts, character biographies, and more. I discovered the world of 3rd Party through TFsource and ogled the hundreds of intricately designed, masterclass figures, and even saved up enough for a few! Time went on, and my ambitious plans for stop motion came into conflict with my novice animation abilities. I returned to planning and I continued buying new figures, finding all kinds of ways these new characters could factor into my ideas. I readily called myself a collector and I put up shelves to display them all. But time went on, and my plans for telling my story became only ideas fluttering in the back of my mind, no longer codified in written word. I continued to buy figures and think of ideas for them, but they became fleeting as that character became just the next on the shelf. Now, on the cusp of adulthood, my collection is brimming with the wild and vivid colors of Generations. I understand the complexities of toy design, distribution, sales, and where Transformers is. I'm learning to manage money, but my purchases are more frequent than ever. I'd begun seeking definitive versions of my existing characters. Hot Rod unburdened by titan masters, Optimus unburdened by being a triple changer, and a Megatron with all the intimidation and power I dreamt of. I replaced the older versions with their latest models on the shelves, but no longer with an explanation. Starscream has come back from the dead. The Dinobots were returning from their mission. And Optimus? Well, that other one is just the Titan's Return version. There's a feeling I've been grappling with lately with as I look back. I might liken it to melancholy. I'm buying all these wonderful toys of all these characters I can build up in my mind, and tell stories with, but something is still different. My purchases are no longer special. The scrappy, ragtag groups of Autobots and Deceptions I began with have swelled into armies, and every purchase now just fills out the ranks. I don't need to explain why Smokescreen isn't there, I can just search for him in the aftermarket or wait for the next one. It was a slow realization, but I began to wonder if I was buying because I loved the character and had ideas, or because I wanted completion. I tried to space out my purchases, but this did little to alleviate the gnawing worry inside me. I'm not really much of a commenter, honestly. But this video touched me in a very powerful way. It brought calm to my troubled collector's mind after all this time. This is the first video I've ever seen from your channel, and though I am missing the context of 3 years of this series, I still felt like I hadn't missed anything. It's time for me to slow down. It's time for me to tell the story I saw in my dreams. My collection- My cast- are the characters I love, not ones to meet a quota of representation. You've reminded me of the beauty in incompletion. Thank you, from the sincere heart of an internet wanderer, for this animation. A treat for the eyes, ears, and mind! Bravo, and I can't wait to see what you do next!
This whole comment really describes EXACTLY my journey. Sometimes we collectors get so caught up with collecting, completing, getting the best representation that we tend to lose the real reason as to why we started collecting in the first place.
Gotta say, this completely shattered (glass) my expectations. Such an amazing analysis of what these toys mean to us, how the progress on toy design and technology has been bombarding us with better versions of the characters we love, how this has become some kind of endless search for the perfect version. But, in the end, it doesn't matter how many versions you have or if you have the ultimate whatever, your first figures have a special place on your heart. And, as the time goes by, your collection becomes a part of you, it tells stories of your life, it reminds you of simple yet beautiful moments, it reminds you of the people around you, it is more than just a bunch of plastic, it is more than meets the eye!
this honestly cuts deep for me in a lot of ways, and sadly, i don't think i'll ever be able to afford re-buying all the figures i've lost/sold due to dumb decisions in my childhood. the figures i cherished most i honestly feel are lost to time, and it pains me. substitutions can be made, sure, but they won't capture the same wonder and joy as the original versions i had as a kid.
Yeah,and there’s even more with this kinda stuff for collectors like me,I prefer to get the the weird and obvious recolors,because when I was was younger my parents never had a lot of money (it’s not like that now) so they weren’t able to buy certain figures as gifts at first and had to wait for stuff to go on sale or clearance and even find stuff at thrift stores because where I live everyone got the characters that the molds were initially made for and just ignored the recolors most of the time,so I ended up with stuff like Smokescreen from movie 1 Jazz,Roadbuster from TFA ultra magnus,and Breakaway from Cybertron hotshot;so it’s because of stuff like this that I more like buying stuff like Nemesis prime,Soundblaster,and Ricochet.
Man. It's insane to see how far your skillset has come. This just might be your greatest work this far. all the mouth movements and extra animations, all the mid air shots, just everything in here. Stellar work man
Dude, as a collector, this really touched my heart. I think that this is the perfect message for all of us transformers fans, and that is the fact that even though things constantly change and... well... transform, the only thing that matters is what the franchise means to each and every one of us. Sure some may like bay verse or g1 more than the other, but the main point is that this is what makes us all unique, and transformers and any other thing in this world will constantly continue to transform around us, but one thing that will never change, is how we view the world, and what it means to us in our hearts.
Damn, as a lifelong Transformers fan that's spent the past decade or so collecting figures, that ending hit me right in the feels. Excuse me, I got something in my eye...😢
How could I forget how much these toys mean to me? How could I forget that Transformers made my childhood interesting and happy? I almost cried from the fact that I remembered all this thanks to the ending of this great series ... Thank you for reminding me of all this ...
I came here to watch an epic stop motion fight. I got that, great moments of comedy, plus some heavy feels that hit surprisingly close to home. This series really showcases how meaningful this hobby can be. Thank you all for this monumental work of art and passion.
The voice actor for Prime, god... top tier. Thank you Lumaken for this wonderful finale. Hope to see you in the future, will still follow your insta, and hope that greatness comes for you. Thank you
Man, that was strong... Not only you upgraded once again in term of quality, but I also found this video very touching and deep in a way. I don't really know how to express it correctly, but it touched me too. We can feel that Transformers figures played an important role in your life, and I recognized myself in it too, especially as stop-motion animator (as my channel and my desire to make videos also started with Transformers). So yeah, great job once again, and thank you for this amazing serie ! :-)
I think toy story TRIED to make a story like this where It doesn’t matter if you’ll get replaced as long as you left an impact of the persons life is what matters. But toy story took this away with the jokes and humor especially the “newer” one:/
I love this, speaks to me at the heart really just describes how my whole year struggling with collecting has been for me and just it makes it all feel better knowing that I don’t need every version of a figure, and any figure can have meaning as long as someone sees it with that and to not loose ones purpose within this hobby, as after all it is just a hobby! u made a masterpiece!
It was AMAZING ! The action, the stop motion, the voice acting, the 3D Model (quite creepy btw) and the ending were just PERFECTION !!! I'm so glad to be one of your subscribers and for having followed this wonderful adventure ! Happy Thanksgiving ! And never forget... YOU GOT THE TOUCH !
This was honestly deep for me especially at the ending. I mean everything changes but that doesn’t mean you are alone the ending to this video proved it and I hope you continue your channel and keep creating.
This is truly beautiful. The animation and voices were amazing. Those last lines brought me back to when I would play with my transformers as a little kid. "Nothing in someone's heart can be replaced". "It means that we will be there for you always" Those lines reminded me of why Optimus Prime is one of my favorite characters in all of fiction and why I loved my toys so much. Thank you for an amazing series and a great finale.
God that last line actually started to make me cry. I was thinking about one of my first Transformers. when I was 5 or 6, I remember getting the Transformers Cybertron Optimus Prime for Christmas. And I had him for about 7 years. Then me and my brothers made my mom mad about us not cleaning our room and she stepped on it when she was marching in the room to yell at us. It was an accident, but it definitely wasn't fixable. The head and chest were completely shattered. All those memories with it in the trash. For my next birthday after that happened, she got me a Transformers Animated Optimus Prime. I had that for years as well, but I still miss that old TF Cybertron one. That had a lot of memories to it. It's too bad I can't find one for cheap now. I'd love to have another one like that someday. A few years ago I gave all my old Transformers to my younger cousins cuz they liked them too. I'm sure they still have some of them. Whether they're broken or not is a different story. But I'm starting my "collection" again, if that's what I can call it. I've got One of the Studio Series figures, a couple of the War for Cybertron Trilogy figures, and a couple of the Titans Return figures, at least I think that's the line they're from. But Nothing will live up to the old ones I used to have.
Man, for something that just started as just versions of characters fight into a story of childhood, perfection and character. I saw this back in the day and now that the Stop motion, 3D animation and more that has evolved over time and man I'm happy that I watched it. You truly did an amazing work Lumaken Studios, and I hope to see more great videos in the future.
Ok and technically all seekers (besides like slipstream and the coneheads) are clones of starscream so they should also include Thundercracker, Skywarp, acid storm, ion storm, nova storm, redwing, Hotlink, and every other seeker is a clone of starscream in animated and in the full transformers continuity going back to g1
I was kinda worried how this series would wrap its ending up in a satisfying conclusion, but holy shit you blew all my expectations and hit it outta the park! Honestly this makes me wanna go back into my old toybox and meet some old transformers that I've been ignoring lately because I've just been caught up with trying to be a completionist. Thank you for this amazing work of art! This is truly your magnum opus.
Oh my god this is going to be awesome the best one that he ever made this will be our last stand long live lord Starscream The leader of the Deceptacon’s
This got oddly wholesome at the end but it brought me back to simpler times nonetheless. Thanks, Lumaken, for making it this far, and putting a smile on everyone's face.
I love how this started out as a great simple battle royale for characters (well, groups of the same characters) but had a full and deep meaning in the end. Man I feel this and had to have a glance over at my own collection, noticing all those golden oldies that still shine amongst all the new stuff. Amazing work and can't wait to see wheat you'll grace us with next.
It can't be over! Not now! After all these years... It's over! I can't believe it! Oh well... I suppose this truly is somthing to be thankful for. This really captures the heart of any transformers fan. I hope we get more moving videos soon! See you then!
What an incredible series. My son and I have enjoyed every single one. I can’t imagine the time this took, as well as the coordination with the voice over artists.
3 años viendo esto. Valió cada maldito segundo. Se me salió una lagrima con el final. Colecciono desde los 7 años y la verdad agradezco enormemente el esfuerzo en estos videos, el amor, el tiempo, la dedicación. Simplemente es algo espectacular. Porque los transformers, siempre serán más de lo que se ve a simple vista y eso escapa a lo tangible. Gracias en serio, mil gracias.
Wow, just wow! Not only has the interesting story of this seemingly simple series gotten more fleshed out, but holy, the animation. Lumaken, over and over again you’ve outdone yourself. Never give up and congratulations on all you’ve accomplished!
Lumaken, just like so many content creators out there, you took something fun and silly and turned it into something...bigger...deeper...touching. Just like the Transformers franchise itself, this little series started out innocently enough, but proved itself to be more than meets the eye. Lumaken, continue being awesome and continue the good work. Till all are one.
Damn this hits hella deep. I'll say it now, Transformers toys are some of the highest quality figures out there (probably because the franchise kinda revolves around it lol) and have made my childhood. Thank you for this video, it truly reminded me of good old days with my Transformers phase. Now, for which continuity is the best in the Transformers series.... THAT. Is an entirely different tale to tell.
Nice work on everything - especially the puns (that Siege line cracked me up). Man, you got one hell of a collection I bet. I've always felt like Terrosaur was more like Starscream myself. Ending does give you the feels. No perfect version except to the individual that it is to.
I can’t wait!!! These videos are so cool. I love how all the different versions Battle each other. I grew up with the 2007 transformers and I watched transformers animated as a kid. I even loved watching the original transformers movie from 1980. It’s so cool to see them all together and the stop motion looks so cool
This video reminds us that you're never too old to relive play with toys like a kid it's always going to be fun and no matter how much these toys Advance we will all still appreciate the very first toys we've had thank you and have a good day
I can't describe how amazing this was. the stop motion was beautiful, voice acting was great, that hand characters design is so cool and the story was great.
It was a thrilling conclusion! massive fight scenes, the final villain revealed, lots of my own transformer toys seen in the background, and a touch of warmth for the heart to top it all off. Top marks!
This was very pleasing to watch, the stopmotion was on point, up to the point where it didn't really stop. A very good message as well. I also like the idea of showing yourself as a yellow and blue beast wars megatron, speaking of that depiction of your self, i really think that is what made the message matter and heartwarming, because you show yourself as this very picky and creepy organism that later realizes that it isn't about the perfect one, but all of them, especially the first figures, bringing the real human you into the story, creating that great message, a good end, and a heartwarming scene over all. Happy Holidays!
I used to play with transformers when I was younger, I made animations of them transforming because I thought the concept was cool. I would sit in my room all day playing with them, this makes me happy and sad at the same time
I get it. You can do anything with a push of a button, you made those transformers fight with a push of a button, You did stop motion. Those controls that made the transformers fight was a camera and editing studio. The one behind all of that was you, you acted as the controller who had that collection. I can’t wait until the next video.
This entire dang series man... it’s fantastic! Seeing your skill as an animator and storyteller progress throughout this entire project is so inspiring.
No matter where I go, no matter who I become, I can still find inspiration in that small rag tag team of space exploring Maximals that were the only ones available to stop that purple faced maniac that stole the Golden Disc. The rest is silence....
Absolute kino, I don't really have much to say that hasn't been said by others here but the ending just really touched me as well. I've been watching your videos since 2013, and it's just really nice to see a conclusion to this story, especially one that's heartfelt. (Don't know if that's the right word, but damn well feels like it.) You and many others in this wonderful community have inspired me to make my own stories and just be creative in general. Thank you for the memories, Mr. Lumaken. I'll continue to watch your videos for as long as you make them ^^
13:18 ngl that hits hard the only reason I'm watching this is because of my first transformers toy (Optimus prime from the 2007 movie) and it true does give me a lot of good memories of how I slowly got into the series
I gotta say, my transformers have always been there for me. I had a crappy childhood and I suffered a lot of mental abuse from family members. The one thing that always bought me joy were my toys, they meant a lot and still do mean a lot more to me than I can possibly imagine. Thank you for reminding me about my action figures, I went to my display shelf and started crying. We need more people like this.
Lumaken I really admire your skill with stopmotion, your animating has become better the years. I hope you continue to be an awesome person. this series has made me happy in some bad times, thanks for making this.
I love this series I love each and every episode that you have created for this and the fact that you've been making it go on for this long and to see a final conclusion to this series sends a very very powerful message thank you for being one of the best stop motion transformer TH-camrs out here and you probably got inspiration from other people too but this also shows that collecting is one of the most amazing hobbies out there it's okay to give yourself breaks every once in awhile and we shouldn't take that type of stuff for granted yes as you said they are pieces of plastic but they mean so much to us they inspire us to do more but for my final message this was an amazing ass video and wouldn't one nothing else this message in the video shows what happens with the collector over the years we still buy because we love the hobby we continue to buy each and every version but the thing is we buy because we want to find the perfect one each figure is like a trial and error phase but we keep going you can take a look back to see what all the figures and where you originally started with this hobby and think I'm glad where I started but I'm glad I'm also where I'm at now so thank you this is a great reflection for all cut types of collectors from transformers to gundam or any type of hobby this was amazing hope you have a great Thanksgiving and soon Christmas or whatever holidays you you celebrate ❤️❤️❤️❤️
That ending was beautifully done, i loved your original trio, and the diversity of them is something I myself can relate to. not a day goes by I dont miss enjoying the pleasantries of my first transformers figures (BW: Silverbolt, Armada Megatron and bayverse Starscream the bulky o.g voyager y'all shot at point blank on-screen) Happy Thanksgiving, this was awesome
Yo the ending had me in my feels. As collector with multiple versions of a character, I always feel like there can only be one character for each toy after finding the perfect toy. So many generations of Transformers over the years and the joy it has brought me from my childhood, teen years and adult life. I was amazing of how you threw in the 3D you learned. Your videos inspire me to get back to making some of my own.

How could I forget how much these toys mean to me? How could I forget that Transformers made my childhood interesting and happy? I almost cried from the fact that I remembered all this thanks to the ending of this great series ... Thank you for reminding me of all this ...
Same
I came here to watch an epic stop motion fight. I got that, great moments of comedy, plus some heavy feels that hit surprisingly close to home. This series really showcases how meaningful this hobby can be. Thank you all for this monumental work of art and passion.
The voice actor for Prime, god... top tier.
Thank you Lumaken for this wonderful finale. Hope to see you in the future, will still follow your insta, and hope that greatness comes for you. Thank you
Man, that was strong... Not only you upgraded once again in term of quality, but I also found this video very touching and deep in a way. I don't really know how to express it correctly, but it touched me too. We can feel that Transformers figures played an important role in your life, and I recognized myself in it too, especially as stop-motion animator (as my channel and my desire to make videos also started with Transformers). So yeah, great job once again, and thank you for this amazing serie ! :-)
I’m happy you felt all of this☺️thank you!
@@LumakenStudio that breaks the 4th wall, for ever
he is alive desco i'm hype to your next video
Me to
@@LumakenStudio I love your work!
You've done amazing with this series, and it's good to see it now wrapped up. Thank you for including me as well, it was awesome
Omg tf fan page
This took Toy Story's meaning to *A WHOLE NEW LEVEL*
Loved it! Congrats Lumaken!!
I think toy story TRIED to make a story like this where
It doesn’t matter if you’ll get replaced as long as you left an impact of the persons life is what matters.
But toy story took this away with the jokes and humor especially the “newer” one:/
8:11 All hail Starscream!
7:38 WHAT IN THE ALABAMA STARSCREAM IS THAT. As soon as i saw iti couldn't stop laughing (the bottom left one)
7:24 I know right?! Why did they make such a amazing Starscream design for blitzwing?!
I don't freaking know
I love this, speaks to me at the heart really just describes how my whole year struggling with collecting has been for me and just it makes it all feel better knowing that I don’t need every version of a figure, and any figure can have meaning as long as someone sees it with that and to not loose ones purpose within this hobby, as after all it is just a hobby! u made a masterpiece!
It was AMAZING ! The action, the stop motion, the voice acting, the 3D Model (quite creepy btw) and the ending were just PERFECTION !!! I'm so glad to be one of your subscribers and for having followed this wonderful adventure !
Happy Thanksgiving ! And never forget... YOU GOT THE TOUCH !
Animation gives me Courage the Cowardly Dog vibes.
This was honestly deep for me especially at the ending. I mean everything changes but that doesn’t mean you are alone the ending to this video proved it and I hope you continue your channel and keep creating.
This was worth the wait. This'll be an amazing finale!
Yes it was!
It's a final
@@srakenpierdaken428 yes it’s a finale
Muito bom mas tô triste que acabou
6:52 POV: London
*Wolfenstein Reference*
Look it’s unicron *stabs 80 times*
This is truly beautiful. The animation and voices were amazing. Those last lines brought me back to when I would play with my transformers as a little kid. "Nothing in someone's heart can be replaced". "It means that we will be there for you always" Those lines reminded me of why Optimus Prime is one of my favorite characters in all of fiction and why I loved my toys so much. Thank you for an amazing series and a great finale.
I was already expecting this to be amazing, but this managed to blow my already high expectations out of the water. This is so freaking good
This was a incredible ending to this series
7:47 Prime Starscream doing his Iconic dance XD
God that last line actually started to make me cry. I was thinking about one of my first Transformers. when I was 5 or 6, I remember getting the Transformers Cybertron Optimus Prime for Christmas. And I had him for about 7 years. Then me and my brothers made my mom mad about us not cleaning our room and she stepped on it when she was marching in the room to yell at us. It was an accident, but it definitely wasn't fixable. The head and chest were completely shattered. All those memories with it in the trash. For my next birthday after that happened, she got me a Transformers Animated Optimus Prime. I had that for years as well, but I still miss that old TF Cybertron one. That had a lot of memories to it. It's too bad I can't find one for cheap now. I'd love to have another one like that someday. A few years ago I gave all my old Transformers to my younger cousins cuz they liked them too. I'm sure they still have some of them. Whether they're broken or not is a different story. But I'm starting my "collection" again, if that's what I can call it. I've got One of the Studio Series figures, a couple of the War for Cybertron Trilogy figures, and a couple of the Titans Return figures, at least I think that's the line they're from. But Nothing will live up to the old ones I used to have.
Man, for something that just started as just versions of characters fight into a story of childhood, perfection and character.
I saw this back in the day and now that the Stop motion, 3D animation and more that has evolved over time and man I'm happy that I watched it. You truly did an amazing work Lumaken Studios, and I hope to see more great videos in the future.
6:49
Starscream: look its unicron!
Starscream:WHERE WHERE?
starscream: *goes up to starscream* *INTENSE STABBING*
Welcome to london
GTA players be like:
28 Stab Wounds
*Starscream's Kingdom PTSD intensifies*
If this has Starscream then it's also got to have Sunstorm as well considering Sunstorm is a clone of Starscream.
Ok and then there will be uh?... Oh... Huh... Oh maybe ..... 😬 Uhh Blitzwing
Ok and technically all seekers (besides like slipstream and the coneheads) are clones of starscream so they should also include Thundercracker, Skywarp, acid storm, ion storm, nova storm, redwing, Hotlink, and every other seeker is a clone of starscream in animated and in the full transformers continuity going back to g1
This Isn’t a Finale…THIS Is A Work Of Art
Breaking the 4th is ok
The end?? 🥺😭😭 I know it’s going out with a bang though, I have faith in you!! Let’s make it one hell of a final show!
I agree with you.
I was kinda worried how this series would wrap its ending up in a satisfying conclusion, but holy shit you blew all my expectations and hit it outta the park!
Honestly this makes me wanna go back into my old toybox and meet some old transformers that I've been ignoring lately because I've just been caught up with trying to be a completionist. Thank you for this amazing work of art! This is truly your magnum opus.
Why did I just notice 7:47 Transformers prime Starscream is not even fighting he’s just dancing 😂😂😂
Oh my god this is going to be awesome the best one that he ever made this will be our last stand long live lord Starscream The leader of the Deceptacon’s
Yes!
And Waspinator, doesn’t forget about waspinator
Agreed!
Hmm
How was this posted the day before the video
“Freakish Dorito thing”
Best starscream line ever.
This video was absolutely awesome, and now you can take a *much* needed hiatus to relax.
This got oddly wholesome at the end but it brought me back to simpler times nonetheless. Thanks, Lumaken, for making it this far, and putting a smile on everyone's face.
This was an awesome ending. Seeing the reality of the series and how the stop motion animation works. This was a masterpiece
I love how this started out as a great simple battle royale for characters (well, groups of the same characters) but had a full and deep meaning in the end.
Man I feel this and had to have a glance over at my own collection, noticing all those golden oldies that still shine amongst all the new stuff.
Amazing work and can't wait to see wheat you'll grace us with next.
This is what the true Cybertronian way is, to always 'Keep Transforming'.
6:49-6:55 is probably my favorite gag ever in the series. Had me cracking up to no end lmfao
It was an honor to be apart of this, in any shape or form! Truly a great video. Can’t wait to see what the future holds.
8:11 All Hail Starscream!!
(Because they are all Starscream in Transformers: Multiverse)
6:34"Who are you?"
It can't be over! Not now! After all these years... It's over! I can't believe it! Oh well... I suppose this truly is somthing to be thankful for. This really captures the heart of any transformers fan. I hope we get more moving videos soon! See you then!
What an incredible series. My son and I have enjoyed every single one. I can’t imagine the time this took, as well as the coordination with the voice over artists.
3 años viendo esto. Valió cada maldito segundo. Se me salió una lagrima con el final. Colecciono desde los 7 años y la verdad agradezco enormemente el esfuerzo en estos videos, el amor, el tiempo, la dedicación. Simplemente es algo espectacular. Porque los transformers, siempre serán más de lo que se ve a simple vista y eso escapa a lo tangible. Gracias en serio, mil gracias.
the fact that i know this series longer than my sister is old, doesn't just make me feel old, but kinda sad too
Wow, just wow! Not only has the interesting story of this seemingly simple series gotten more fleshed out, but holy, the animation. Lumaken, over and over again you’ve outdone yourself. Never give up and congratulations on all you’ve accomplished!
The flashback with 07bee, bw megatron, and Cybertron optimus hit so incredibly fucking hard
O MY PRIMUS THIS IS GONNA BE SO METAL! I NEED THIS IN MY BRAIN RIGHT NOW!😄🤟 I CANT WAIT MUCH LONGER
Lumaken, just like so many content creators out there, you took something fun and silly and turned it into something...bigger...deeper...touching. Just like the Transformers franchise itself, this little series started out innocently enough, but proved itself to be more than meets the eye. Lumaken, continue being awesome and continue the good work. Till all are one.
Damn this hits hella deep. I'll say it now, Transformers toys are some of the highest quality figures out there (probably because the franchise kinda revolves around it lol) and have made my childhood. Thank you for this video, it truly reminded me of good old days with my Transformers phase.
Now, for which continuity is the best in the Transformers series....
THAT.
Is an entirely different tale to tell.
''look it's Unicron!''
'' where, where?''
* Stabs 47 times in the jugular *
Nice work on everything - especially the puns (that Siege line cracked me up). Man, you got one hell of a collection I bet. I've always felt like Terrosaur was more like Starscream myself. Ending does give you the feels. No perfect version except to the individual that it is to.
This was incredible, i absolutely love the personal journey you went through in this. i hope this blows up and gets the recognition you deserve
I can’t wait!!! These videos are so cool. I love how all the different versions Battle each other. I grew up with the 2007 transformers and I watched transformers animated as a kid. I even loved watching the original transformers movie from 1980. It’s so cool to see them all together and the stop motion looks so cool
This video reminds us that you're never too old to relive play with toys like a kid it's always going to be fun and no matter how much these toys Advance we will all still appreciate the very first toys we've had thank you and have a good day
thank you so much for making my childhood as good as it was, those 3 years felt like a decade of wonder imagination. you rock lumaken, thank you
I can't describe how amazing this was. the stop motion was beautiful, voice acting was great, that hand characters design is so cool and the story was great.
It was a thrilling conclusion! massive fight scenes, the final villain revealed, lots of my own transformer toys seen in the background, and a touch of warmth for the heart to top it all off. Top marks!
This was very pleasing to watch, the stopmotion was on point, up to the point where it didn't really stop. A very good message as well. I also like the idea of showing yourself as a yellow and blue beast wars megatron, speaking of that depiction of your self, i really think that is what made the message matter and heartwarming, because you show yourself as this very picky and creepy organism that later realizes that it isn't about the perfect one, but all of them, especially the first figures, bringing the real human you into the story, creating that great message, a good end, and a heartwarming scene over all. Happy Holidays!
Btw the way did you do the voice of the yellow and blue megs a.k.a. you?
I don't know who voiced Optimus but he actually sounds so incredibly similar to Peter Cullen. And Blackarachnia too! Spot on voice work
homie literally added McDonalds starscream xD
Wow, man. This is a true homage to all Transformers collectors and content creators. Phenomenal.
Dude, it's been so awesome to see this series over the years, outstanding work man!
Lumaken my friend, "Worlds will live, Worlds will die, and the Transformers Multiverse will never be the same"
I used to play with transformers when I was younger, I made animations of them transforming because I thought the concept was cool.
I would sit in my room all day playing with them, this makes me happy and sad at the same time
Starscream vs Starscream kill count
4:59 - Waspinator
5:57 - Beast Wars Skorponok
6:48 - Seige Starscream
7:13 - Nitro Zeus
7:43 - Cybertron Thundercracker
7:45 - 2007 Voyager class Starscream
7:55 - Bumblebee Starscream
12:34 - The Game creator (IDK what he's actually called)
Total: 8
Most Brutal death: Waspinator
Least Justified: Skorponok
Most tame death: Thundercracker (if you count that)
Most Epic: Game creator
I get it. You can do anything with a push of a button, you made those transformers fight with a push of a button,
You did stop motion. Those controls that made the transformers fight was a camera and editing studio. The one behind all of that was you, you acted as the controller who had that collection. I can’t wait until the next video.
Love the meta a commentary, the deeper meaning of being a fan and not merely a collector !
From a simple vs video to one with a build-up of lore, it all goes down to this. No matter what, Transformers will always be there for us.
"Who are you?"
- G1 Starscream 2021
This video is mostly JobbyTheHong talking to himself. Which isn't dissimilar from his videos so I guess he's always like this.
This entire dang series man... it’s fantastic! Seeing your skill as an animator and storyteller progress throughout this entire project is so inspiring.
My favorite character with the Lumaken quality seal? The last one? It's gonna be an amazing one, can't wait!
3:48 That scream is priceless
I new I recognized that voice from anywhere. This has depth tho. It went deep. I have nothing to say because the video summed it up.
No matter where I go, no matter who I become, I can still find inspiration in that small rag tag team of space exploring Maximals that were the only ones available to stop that purple faced maniac that stole the Golden Disc. The rest is silence....
Absolute kino, I don't really have much to say that hasn't been said by others here but the ending just really touched me as well. I've been watching your videos since 2013, and it's just really nice to see a conclusion to this story, especially one that's heartfelt. (Don't know if that's the right word, but damn well feels like it.) You and many others in this wonderful community have inspired me to make my own stories and just be creative in general. Thank you for the memories, Mr. Lumaken. I'll continue to watch your videos for as long as you make them ^^
15:01 I KNOW IT! IKNOW THAT JOBBY IS THE STARSCERAM. HES VOICE IS TO PERFECT TO THIS ROLE
13:18 ngl that hits hard the only reason I'm watching this is because of my first transformers toy (Optimus prime from the 2007 movie) and it true does give me a lot of good memories of how I slowly got into the series
That “Look it’s Unicron!” Bit made me laugh, my man came in with the heat!
There is one Starscream that was missing from here. Armada Starscream. He would probly be the GOAT in this battle.
OMG! IT'S ON THANK YOU SO MUCH SIR FOR DOING SUCH EFFORTS FOR US
Omg! Your stop motion videos are so gorgeous, Lumaken!!
And also such a great stop motion pro, too!
Keeping work and have a great day. :)
Well done, Nothing could top it better than a classic toy story ending
I gotta say, my transformers have always been there for me. I had a crappy childhood and I suffered a lot of mental abuse from family members. The one thing that always bought me joy were my toys, they meant a lot and still do mean a lot more to me than I can possibly imagine. Thank you for reminding me about my action figures, I went to my display shelf and started crying. We need more people like this.
Lumaken I really admire your skill with stopmotion, your animating has become better the years. I hope you continue to be an awesome person. this series has made me happy in some bad times, thanks for making this.
I love this series I love each and every episode that you have created for this and the fact that you've been making it go on for this long and to see a final conclusion to this series sends a very very powerful message thank you for being one of the best stop motion transformer TH-camrs out here and you probably got inspiration from other people too but this also shows that collecting is one of the most amazing hobbies out there it's okay to give yourself breaks every once in awhile and we shouldn't take that type of stuff for granted yes as you said they are pieces of plastic but they mean so much to us they inspire us to do more but for my final message this was an amazing ass video and wouldn't one nothing else this message in the video shows what happens with the collector over the years we still buy because we love the hobby we continue to buy each and every version but the thing is we buy because we want to find the perfect one each figure is like a trial and error phase but we keep going you can take a look back to see what all the figures and where you originally started with this hobby and think I'm glad where I started but I'm glad I'm also where I'm at now so thank you this is a great reflection for all cut types of collectors from transformers to gundam or any type of hobby this was amazing hope you have a great Thanksgiving and soon Christmas or whatever holidays you you celebrate ❤️❤️❤️❤️
You have done well with this series, Lumaken! It's nice to see that it is finally wrapped up. Keep up the great work as always, man!
Really impressive. I've enjoyed the whole series and I especially enjoyed the humour and references in this episode.
THE EDITING!! THE VOICE ACTING!! THE ANIMATION!! I LOVE IT!!
Wow, you just summed up how I believe in my literal toys. And everyon laughs at me for playong with em.
This was awesome
That ending was beautifully done, i loved your original trio, and the diversity of them is something I myself can relate to. not a day goes by I dont miss enjoying the pleasantries of my first transformers figures (BW: Silverbolt, Armada Megatron and bayverse Starscream the bulky o.g voyager y'all shot at point blank on-screen) Happy Thanksgiving, this was awesome
HOLY CRAP! This is spectacular,Such a great ending to a dope ass series
This series has been incredible, and to the wholesome ending...man you never forget your first transformers...man..👏👏👏👏
Yo the ending had me in my feels. As collector with multiple versions of a character, I always feel like there can only be one character for each toy after finding the perfect toy. So many generations of Transformers over the years and the joy it has brought me from my childhood, teen years and adult life. I was amazing of how you threw in the 3D you learned. Your videos inspire me to get back to making some of my own.
I’ve got to hand it to jobby for voicing so many starcreams and waspinstor 😅 his voice is just so perfect
