Whoever at Hasbro that though repaints of older moulds for the 40th anniversary for the movie was a good idea was only thinking of how much money they could make by reusing old moulds, cheapskates, making it a money grab instead of honouring the fans with new accurate designs
I'm really annoyed with them changing the ss86 packaging design & throwing in random bussworthy bumblebee series packages,  then they dropped the ss86 lable for MTMTE lable making the collection look like three different collection mashed together, so getting a uniform collection is impossible
That's one more thing the 'apology tour' can't make up for, for anyone trying to get them all uniformly, but then i never thought id see the original movie get a line of toys all these years later

Til All Are One

On Hot Rod you forgot to mention the cool Flip-down Visor for Targeting. That feature is usually reserved for Leader/Masterpiece.

Thanks for the video. If I could just make one critique, I had to learn this for my channel early on, turn down the music a little bit. It's one thing to have to hear the same repeating midi for 2 minutes, quite another for 50.

Excellent video!  I have been hard on SS86 in a lot of my discussion videos, but I do enjoy the figures in the line for the most part.  I don't like how it has hijacked Studio Series on the whole, but at least a lot of the figures have been solid.  

And as always, great work here!  Really like your style and how you explore the topic; your videos are a joy to watch.

The Red Cross is a trademarked and legally protected symbol, not censorship. Apparently they had edited it for G1 subsequent runs way back in 1985, but most of us were too young to care or even notice. That's why they use the lifeline symbol or autobot cross. 🤷🏻‍♂️

This line would be amazing if each figure had a production budget and paint application budget of more than $0.12 cents, and if the prices points weren't fucking ripoff (deluxe $30, voyager $38, leader $58, commander $118) As  it is, the cliffside drop in quality is more than enough to give it a berth

🎉thanks for this very exciting and acknowledged happy y made this + love the video game background!! Smooth as ice

One Fun Factoid on the "86 Kup, mine at least was made in Vietnam instead of China. Hadn't checked others, just noticed on him.

Hasbro already finish with 3 main seekers in this years, they also revealed the rainmaker seekers for next years will be sold in pack. I hope they also released conehead seekers to make it completed in next years

From what I understand, the red cross has very strict rules about using the symbol outside of its intended purpose. By the Geneva Convention’s own standards, depicting Ratchet with the red crosses on his shoulders would in fact constitute a war crime, lol

I can accept a few remolds from generations if it means we get really good new molds in the line but I agree they went a bit nuts this year for the 40th. Should have saved Devastator.

While new molds would be nice, I can defend Sunstreaker/ Wheeljack though, as someone who has the 5-pack. Like others I imagine, I sold my 86 Jazz to get it. So if that pack became redundant less than 2 years later, I'd be pissed off. Thankfully I guessed they were repacks after seeing listing for 86 Hound.

The amount of 86 figures this year have shot themselves in the foot, 86 is almost done haha. So no surprise they are starting SSG1 to get everyone else

I don't collect Transformers, nor was a big fan of the series/movies, but I thought this was an excellent video.  Most interesting was when you point out differences between the figure and movies.

A couple things i cant help note 1. Thank goodness im Australian and dont have put up with exclusives in the main and 2. As someone newer i dont mind reissues but you need be careful you dont end with something thats getting updated soon , although things like Astrotrain can happen , Galaxy Shuttle is my only Astrotrain

Windcharger’s ability is magnetism, not wind…despite his name.

Lovely video! About halfway through right now and this is scratching my brain’s need for robot talk

I love the 86 builds.  Most of them are pretty solid.

I like Red Hot Rod and G2 Blue Grimlock.

Completely agree with you. For myself I can appreciate some of the mold reuse IF I never got my hands on it while it was in Earthrise or Kingdom. I will say SS86 provides some of the funniest box art at times. For example the single frame of Hound in the 86 movie in the back of where Optimus takes up 85 percent of it 🤣
Nice video! Got yourself a sub!

Like video you did also for mystery of convoy main menu music well music is jp op theme for s3 or was know in japan transformers 2010

The Dinobots are all fantastic, and there some amazing figures within the line. More good than bad IMO. However, there ARE a few extremely valid complaints
