    Sandstorm was one of the few genuinely complex characters of G1 surprisingly enough. Growing up on a planet of pacifists but still feeling a need to fight, working alongside Drcepticons like octane when necessary, and shrugging off his home getting blown up paints a picture of a well meaning but kinda fucked up guy which IDW played into. Hes a super underrated guy and it was vindicating to hear this toy was the original when Springer was getting all the love. Hope that rumored new one is cool.

    I hope the release of Legacy manages to make this guy cheaper, he's kinda expensive in the aftermarket.

    April 2024, G1 Sandstorm gets released along with G1 Sureshot and SS86 Swoop. This finishes the triple changers, targetmaster and the Dinobots. Unless they do a new Broadside, down the line.

    When in VTOL mode, while you can position the arms all the way forward for the "wings", like you said they get in the way of the rotors. You're actually supposed to just fold the black part over itself, not up to the yellow. That way you still get the wings facing out, and still have room for the rotors.

    Alt mode reminds me a lot of the Energon Cliffjumper aka not Sandstorm. Only ever owned the Springer release and for the most part a decent toy with fun alt modes/transformation. A definite highlight during the thrilling 30s era. 2024 apparently is giving us a Legacy Sandstorm and 86 Springer. Probably the same mold, but heres hoping each has an original mold or at least enough retooling to differentiate the two.

    I was JUST THINKING of Sandstorm last night, and looking up any toys, as the G1 Sandstorm looked pretty cool, and so was this version!
    I can confidently say that this and G1 were the only Sandstorm toys (that were actually THE character, rather than his name just slapped onto whatever toy) that I could find on eBay! Don’t get me wrong, both toys look cool! But personally I kinda wished there was a Legacy toy of him as well! (Also, I already sent my Christmas list to “Santa” so… I’ll have to save up for my own Sandstorm toy…or toys! As now that I think about it, since there are only 2 actual Sandstorm toys, I could buy both so that the G1 version is his earth mode, and this one is his Cybertronian mode!)

    Ehhhhh.....I can sort of see how this design was first. if you look at Nick's older art of his Springer, the car mode isn't really anything like the art for Springer's car mode. It seems though that they took aspects of this, made additions to make him into Springer, then went back to Sandstorm and changed him to add more Springer to his design until there was more of a balance, and then released Springer first, lol. Personally, I like Springer better. The top heavy nature of Sandtorm didn't do it for me and without leg wheels his legs look very spindly. I never had a problem with standing the Springer figure. I only have that Legends release of the T30 mold because I like the G1 colors on him a lot.

    Both alt modes look great as well as bot mod and it is so much FUN to transform too.
    The sandstorm is going for like 80+ on ebay but the Springer is going for around 50 NEW and as low as 15 used at this very moment.

    Both modes look really good for a triple changer. Usually, they'll have a more compromised mode, but this one does both quite well. The only one that I would say is the more "comprised" mode is the flying one, mainly because you have a few unavoidable car bits showing.

    Sandstorm is still my favourite. This mold got me into this ridiculous habit.

Recently got the Dr Wu legend class & awaiting new stock for Sworder. I'd love a Legacy update but not if the Blitzwing designer is involved. That was rough Hasbro.

    "The toy itself though looks very, very cool." Whoooooo!! My brother in Primus, Unicron, and Gaea, if you like the way that looks, then you should get your mitts on (or at least find a picture of) the Takara version. It may come across as bland for all the added orange, but it also looks like the then-modern update on the character. (I am so NOT lookin' forward to how the alleged new "Leader class" Sandstorm is gonna turn out if they do like Siege Astrotrain or Legacy Blitzwing and have a Voyager with extra stuff...)
    That T30 IDW Sandstorm was the original mold that got retooled into T30 IDW Springer is just WILD. But, it does explain why Springer's car mode looks like a wannabe Batmobile. I honestly don't see how Hasbro can top the T30 Sandstorm. (Aside from G1 accuracy, they really didn't complete the pass in going from T30 Springer to Siege Springer...)

      If they do make a new one I don’t want it to be toy or show accurate I just want it to be a updated version of the 30s version he does not need a helicopter head

    The car mode and proportions make me think that this would be pretty good for an RiD2015 Steeljaw custom

    In VTOL mode, his arms are supposed to be transformed as of they’re in robot mode, aside from the fists being folded away inside of the forearms. The feet should be in the middle slot. Like it vehicle mode they’re all the way to one side, and in robot mode they’re all the way to the other side. There’s a middle area between the two sides, that’s where they should be in VTOL mode. When you transform the feet, you can feel the plastic flex around the grooves as it slots between the three locations.

    7:05 Those panels on my copy refused to come back out after pushing them in, I was worried about breaking them. Other than that, I loved this figure, as I had lost the figure at some point.

    I actually have this figure and I like him. Question though was DNA designs around back when it released? If so, I’m surprised they didn’t release an upgrade kit for this guy to help with some stuff.
