7:15 Personally, and I think a lot of people can agree with me, I think Ratchet and Brawn’s vehicle modes are both more futuristic versions of those RV-styled lunar rovers. With the exception that Brawn’s rover mode is built for mining, given the drill.
"Now he's just flat out stolen the Juggernaut's helmet" That's a pretty epic accomplishment if you as me Also, I can't believe you didn't make a gag of him looking like a toilet. Go with Sass Hands
Thanks for summing up exactly my thoughts on character design “it doesn’t have to look exactly like G1 but I should know who I’m looking at without the name”. The Impressionist movement Mr Bay…look it up.
This is the Brawn we deserve and I hope that we'll get some Energon Gauntlets for him as an Upgrade Kit and as well as a Reference to the Canceled Universe Brawn figure.
Animated actually RESPECTS the original while adding its own stylization onto the characters, you recognize optimus as himself, but his personality, appearance and build are a lot different then the original, same with bumblebee, megatron, blurr and some others
Yes. That's precisely it. It's not just being the exact opposite to be the opposite. It's changing the look to it's own thing without displaying that it hates it's source material like the movies did.
@@PerspectiveEndthe bay films seem like it wants it all to be mature and adult like, kinda like the "quit having fun" meme, even tho I like majority of the designs, it is a tad try hard at times, animated knew it was a unreal and immature idea, and used it to create an amazing storyline and characters
I think my favorite thing about this version is if like an 8 year old saw Bumblebee and knew nothing about G1 they'd probably think he was a short little brawler type, which is of course great design.
I mean he got shot through the shoulder, but he was running full tilt at the gun at the time. So he didn't get shot in the shoulder he got shot in the everything.
Your remark about tigatrons and rhinoxs is so true lmao. At my local toys R us there is a literal PILE of about 30 rhinoxs (no exaggeration it’s literally that many) all just sitting on the shelf because no one is buying them
So funny how I literally just got this guy a few days ago and I absolutely love him. Cannot put the little guy down. For me it has a fun fun FUN and not too simple transformation that I'm constantly changing him back and forth. Fantastic review as always @PerspectiveEnd!
@@PerspectiveEnd Oh man, I've definitely been good. Got my full time job and my health so I can't complain, lol. My channel keeps me busy with the little free time that I have but I absolutely love it. Who know there were so many cool people on UA-cam? 😁👍
I like the bumblebee designs on most of them. Better than making one faction humanoid and the other monsters with one being a flying dorito. But yeah this looks like a great representation of that Braun design and I'm looking forward to all the ones coming down the pike.
Right? I wouldn't have minded what they did with the Cons as much if it was universal across both factions. That being, you'd find some bots on the Autobots AND Decepticons that were a little more normal looking like the Autobots were, and some bots on the Decepticons AND Autobots that were a little more... however you'd describe how all the Decepticons looked in those movies. Instead it looked like Autobots and Decepticons were races instead of factions, *_which they aren't. EVER. They aren't supposed to be._*
0:28 honestly sass hands fits the bill, also something you should try with ratchet (or anyone with sass hands) is make it look like they're deep in thought at a table
2:16 Not even Prowl, the commander Fox (the one even his own clone brethren hates) of the autobots in G1 doesn’t even look like his G1 counterpart. (Now I wonder what smokescreen and blue streak would look like in animated)
For me this design is a perfect example of taking a design from G1 and making it better and putting it through a movie filter. I love the different choices they made. Such as the ones you brought up like his head and his more oval chest and back.
@@PerspectiveEnd To each their own. I don’t feel that all the G1 designs are their best designs just cause they were first. I don’t mind Brawn’s G1 design but after seeing his Bumblebee movie design it just looks actually cool to me. I’ve actually started to like him a lot better and like his G1 version a lot better because of this design. I really hope we see more of him in the future.
i agree with you on wanting to know who the characters are right away, and if i could go back in time i would totally do that, but at this point reusing names for unrelated guys is such a normal thing at this point
I love this figure because this just captures brawn perfectly I love the build, cause it's the bulky little Autobot that snuck it's way into my top 3 favorite Autobots, Brawns whole thing is he's the strongest and toughest Autobot there is, able to fight Megatron in a head to head fight and come out unscathed (something that actually happened, tho in reality he also fought Starscream and Soundwave at the same time as Megatron), and that just shows how they wrecked his character in the 86 movie.
I mean, is getting shot like DIRCETLY in your EVERYTHING a change to his character. That shot went in his shoulder and existed his kidney. As good as he is at punching I think that's kind of a Reasonable point to die at. Like he didn't go down from anything less than CATASTROPHIC injury.
@@PerspectiveEnd I mean yeah, that makes sense, the issue is in the show Megatron couldn't even dent Brawns armor with shots to him, but one shot in the movie was enough to Peirce his armor in two places and blow up his insides.
Who would Brawn be digging trenches for? He's one of the smallest Autobots, and his drill is pretty small in proportion to himself, so the trenches he digs would be tiny. I mean they could trip a Decepticon maybe?
well at least this Brawn doesn't become the victim of the SHOT THROUGH THE HEART song and yes in the 1986 movie Brawn was shot in the Heart or spark, if you pause when he's falling down after being shot you can see a hole on the side of his torso where his spark would be I swear I can't be the only one who's noticed that
I mean he gets nailed like the second he said "Stand fast" And I don't think he was shot through the spark, especially since that didn't exist yet in the lore. I think he just got shot through the everything. He was running full tilt so when he got hit the shot exited below where his rib cage would be on a human, just tearing through literally everything on the way there.
@@PerspectiveEnd fair its just that technically sparks do exist in the g1 continuity thanks to beast wars but yeah even if they didn't there's no way a shot to the torso like that wouldn't have hit something vital
0:07 that’s kinda funny I’m having the opposite problem. Idk what is happening with shipping or If stuff was put out early but a target that I live by put out most of wave one of legacy and I now got everything except g2 prime but none of the bumblebee studio series stuff.
There's an upgrade kit out on ebay somewhere where it literally turns brawn into a doom slayer transformer Literally. It gives him a crucible sword a green visor a super shotgun. A blade arm and cannon too. Honestly this was the most weirdest thing someone could make for him but i kinda find it cool
@@PerspectiveEndyeah it is. Ngl ID software and hasbro should do a crossover one day And make some doom slayer type Transformer. Or maybe use the mechs in some of the levels probably
Revelations had potential. Too bad the decided to make the MC such a self righteous bitch, who felt entitled to everyone's loyalty over all others. "HOW DARE YOU NOT TELL ME ADAMS SECRET HE TOLD YOU NOT TO TELL ME, DONT YOU KNOW BEING LOYAL TO ME IS MORE IMPORTANT!!!"
This is my second favorite design from that Cybertron scene in Bumblbee ( the first one is Soundwave ) when i first saw this designe in cinema the first time it just POPED it was so unique so fresh so dumpy i just liked it and it was very cool animated , when he fall i understood how he has fallen in the dark light of that scene . I want this guy so bad . Sorry if i said something wrong english is my second language .
Your English was fine. No need to apologize. And for me Arcee was my favorite, just because she had such human looking face, and it was proof that the Cybertronians didn't need monster faces to look real.
Hey Perspective, I have a quick question. So I know this isn’t a G1 take, but how well does it fit in with WFC figures? Does it fit in well, or stick out like a sore thumb? I ask this because I still need a Brawn for my G1 seasons 1-2 collection, and I’m conflicted about whether to get this one or the Titans Return version, because while that one is more G1 accurate, the aftermarket prices on him are like three times more than what he seems worth. Should I get this one, or fork out the cash for the Titans Return one?
It's a little different, but it does not stand out remarkably against a regular Chug collection. It can pass for Chug, not perfectly, but on a shelf with others you will not notice easily.
I just ordered a kongdom rodimus, do you think I should get the legacy or kingdom version of glavirton to go with. It? Thanks so much for paying attention to a nobody like Mrs comments
I can’t decide between picking up Rachet or brawn they both seem extremely good. I had the same dilemma with BW Megs and Galvatron. In the end I got both but 4 months apart since my local target is weird that way. If you had to choose between Brawn Rachet or Wheeljack which one should I get first?
My fanfic is that he was a miner on Cybertron, which explains the altmode, drill, and hollow roof. It also explains his role as Autobot demolitions expert.
How do you guys feel about 3rd party accessory kits?? I have never purchased but I'm starting to consider it, because a lot of these fingers are pretty damn good, but would be pretty damn better with ...An energon mace or a wrist flap to cover a hollow spot or an energon ax… for brawn I just saw an adapter for the drill that fills up that hole in vehicle mode and it looks sick... And I didn't have any problem with this Brawn in the 1st place
It is my opinion that if a figure is already good, then feel free to upgrade it. If it was already enjoyable then upgrading it with 3P kits only makes it even more fun. I how ever do not think you should upgrade bad figures in the hopes they become good.
I completely agree on the G1 bit. People say we complain about the Bay designs cause they're not G1, but Bumblebee's designs aren't exactly G1 either. They're G1 inspired, but also unique on their own. Blitzwing looks NOTHING like his G1 design. Not even his colors! I still love it.
The Bumblebee movie slapped some detail onto G1 designs, and changing up like 3 proportions that make them just look bad, especially in live action. That doesn't stop the designs from being G1, they're still WAYY too cartoony to be believable in a live action setting. Brawn takes the most unique departure by also not looking like there's any possible way he transforms. And Blitzwing was a seeker which was literally a G1 design. The model is used for every seeker in the Cybertron scene. People praise the Bumblebee designs as if they're super creative, but these designs were slapped together in a week. They didn't do anything different, they just modelled like three designs and slapped together re used parts for almost all of them. For fucks sake, Soundwave shares almost half his fucking model with Optimus.
I don't think so. Nothing about them is the same. If all the shapes are different and how they transform are different, and all they do is Evoke the original's then they are new designs.
The Juggernaut helmet. This is exactly why this figure can be the start of a new Marvel Crossovers line with this (or an upsize to Voyager and the appropriate added engineering) repainted as ol' Jugglenuts, I mean Juggernaut. (That daaamn Juggernaut Headcrush from X-Men vs. Street Fighter...and it's even worse on consoles: the Saturn lets you pick two of the same character, so imagine a team super of TWO Juggernaut Headcrush at the same time. And the PSone version adding in Hyper Cancels from Street Fighter EX plus Alpha means start with a single Headcrush and go into a double Headcrush for maximum nut juggling pain. Only thing worse is Gambit's Royal Flush...) From there, they could probably reuse the Bumblebee Ironhide mold as Cyclops, maybe use Bumblebee Arcee as Storm, etc. But yeah, this is a pretty neat take on Brawn.
His face from afar looks like the Bay Knight Optimus Prime , with his faceplate, in Juggernaut's helmet. And you can't say anything to change my mind. This figure is really good. This is a great example of why I don't mind smaller figures. It's plus articulation, looks and transformation, minus size. Idk about y'all, but that's a fair trade for me. Although I hope we don't get much smaller than this. Anything smaller than this or WFC Cliffjumper will be a bit too small. Great vid as always. A good way to finish a week, into the weekend.
Tbh, I thought I had it bad with only a wreck gar and a couple sweeps. Funny how people to the north and south of my state are finding Legacy figures, but I can’t find a darn thing.
My Brawn actually had a few problems. The way the legs plug into the front wheels caused stress marks, and the gun hole was too large for its port on the back. The design is neat, but not enough to look past those problems. The best movie Brawn is still the SUV from Revenge of the Fallen.
Sorry to hear about your's QC. That is the biggest frustraition about being a Toy Reviewer. If you buy a video game everyone gets the same game. If you buy a toy, some just come worse than others.
@@PerspectiveEnd that's a good point. Aside from differences in tolerances, you never know when you'll get a paint error, especially with the current factories.
You’ve really got a point with who the bumblebee movie just had to get the basic shape and color down for you to recognize everyone in the Cybertron shot hell I think I recognized several characters in that one scene on my first viewing of the movie when with Crosshairs from Age of Extinction I did know who he was until year after the movie. side note: did get my SS86 Starscream and it’s interesting the face is a new color and his fins are unpainted to match the animation like the two-pack of Skywarp and Thundercracker oh and his hands can now open which makes them look bad either open or closed. Upside to all this my Galvatron now has a throne.
Yeah that's the only reason I want that. The throne. As for the movie. Yeah, I recognized literally every character instantly in bumblebee, and each time I saw a new one I was like "Oh! OH!" It was great.
So I guess legacy is now out and I got Blaster and bulkhead the only one's in store for me which is weird because I've never actually seen the kingdom box Blaster in store
I'm really a fan of this figure, he's got some issues but they aren't a dealbreaker to me. Honestly, my only two issues are his overly-detailed face, and the lack of any sort of cover for his hole in vehicle mode. This is definitely one of the situations where weapon storage isn't just a feature, it's essentially mandatory because at least SOMETHING is blocking the view of his head. Even then, I'm not too rough on it given that the Cybertron-only Bumblebee characters had absolutely no alt modes designed for them, there's only so much that can be expected when you force toy designers to take those designs and make _something_ out of them, and he still fares a ton better than characters like Shockwave or Soundwave.
I think the best part about this figure is its dynamic sculpt and the design it's based on, because of his proportions and everything, his articulation restrictions aren't that bothersome.I got mine yesterday and I've had so much fun posing him around.
Kind of precisely my thoughts. It's objectively not good on the posing front, but like I said with the shoulders it looks great. So while there is less poseability here than there should be what is there looks better than you would expect.
If it's in a video it will be in the Fraternacons. Rufus is just something my brother called Brawn because he didn't remember the character at all, and he thought he looked like a Rufus. And the name just stuck because he was right.
This is off topic, but I was wondering, will you be collecting all the legacy figures? I remember you said you're only completing Kingdom because it's beast wars, so I was wondering if you're going to do the same for Legacy.
I don't think I ever said I was only completing Kingdom because it's BW, especially since most of it isn't. This is my job now, so I will be grabbing everything to take a look for you guys so I can help you make informed decisions. Well most everything. If I'm not interested in a Titan I'm not grabbing that.
Might grab this, it kinda fits with iron factory. Don’t care about scale because honestly the “minibots” seem like they should be big characters(except for bumblebee and beachcomber)like for example I use generations warpath with my iron factory autobots.
Rufus may be the smartest transformer... Whoever read IDW more than meets the eye knows that Cubetronian does have a brain, as was shown when Tarn put someone's brain into their mouth... So Rufus has double protection for his tiny brain
Yeah the seekers are kind of the weakest in general. I think Shockwave had some really bad features. Like the MASSSSSSSSSSIVE gun arm that ended in a tiny gun, but over all the were the worst.
The fact that the drill thing on his alt mod was used by g1 brawn in a g1 episode,make this figure even more funnier
It's an enjoyable little nod yes.
@@PerspectiveEnd YEEESSSS.
Heh
7:15 Personally, and I think a lot of people can agree with me, I think Ratchet and Brawn’s vehicle modes are both more futuristic versions of those RV-styled lunar rovers. With the exception that Brawn’s rover mode is built for mining, given the drill.
Brawn could be that yeah, but like more a personal conveyance. It doesn't look built for a crew. More like a Lunar Quad Bike.
Dude really does look like he stole the juggernauts helmet
I'm the Juggernaut b!+c#
The tiny goblin thief!
"Now he's just flat out stolen the Juggernaut's helmet"
That's a pretty epic accomplishment if you as me
Also, I can't believe you didn't make a gag of him looking like a toilet.

Thanks for summing up exactly my thoughts on character design “it doesn’t have to look exactly like G1 but I should know who I’m looking at without the name”. The Impressionist movement Mr Bay…look it up.
Yeah it's real simple, and I don't know why it took them this long to do it.
@@PerspectiveEnd probably because no-one in the Bayformers films liked the property, so gave less than 2 shits about putting any thought into it.
I always think of that wrist articulation as 'check please' articulation
That's a good one.

They are so much more stylish than the bay one's it hurts.
You said a few things here that was long over due and needed to be said. Bravo kiddo. You're kill'in it.
I feel like I've said stuff along these lines many times before.
Brawn's v mode is like a futuristic version of the ninja Turtle shellrazor

Nail-checking wrists sounds the best
It is the most descriptive.
I think my favorite thing about this version is if like an 8 year old saw Bumblebee and knew nothing about G1 they'd probably think he was a short little brawler type, which is of course great design.

I think from people who Geewunners treated like crap for what they liked, so they wanted to hate G1 for revenge.
You should call them Narcissiwrists.
I loved that one when I heard it.
This was actually my most anticipated figure I’m this line. I really want to pick this one up. 3p would be great too
It's not bad at all. Just odd.
I actually saw a leaked listing for an 86 rufus
Good morning Mr.Perspective
Good evening.
If I ever get this guy I am going to color him like a space marine.
I can’t decide between picking up Rachet or brawn they both seem extremely good. I had the same dilemma with BW Megs and Galvatron. In the end I got both but 4 months apart since my local target is weird that way. If you had to choose between Brawn Rachet or Wheeljack which one should I get first?
I mean they are on Amazon so that should make it a little easier to get, but maybe wait till my next review to make that call.
@@PerspectiveEnd I have decided Rachet since I have no medics 💀
Narceawrist is a really good name I wish I could have come up with that pun
Yeah I liked that one too when I heard it.
1:49 I can’t tell if that makes him look better or worse
The face is definitely horrible either way.
My fanfic is that he was a miner on Cybertron, which explains the altmode, drill, and hollow roof. It also explains his role as Autobot demolitions expert.
I feel like that's a pretty reasonable assumption for Brawl.
@@PerspectiveEnd Brawn
@@TEENFORMER roofus
@@nathanmacrae9199 You're supposed to say, "roofus ya doofus"
Cool my "Narci-wrist" suggestion made the top 3 (gimme credit tho lol)
Brawn looks like he's wearing a hoodie
He does look like he's wearing a Hoodie, and I take it I know what your vote is for.
How do you guys feel about 3rd party accessory kits?? I have never purchased but I'm starting to consider it, because a lot of these fingers are pretty damn good, but would be pretty damn better with ...An energon mace or a wrist flap to cover a hollow spot or an energon ax… for brawn I just saw an adapter for the drill that fills up that hole in vehicle mode and it looks sick... And I didn't have any problem with this Brawn in the 1st place
It is my opinion that if a figure is already good, then feel free to upgrade it. If it was already enjoyable then upgrading it with 3P kits only makes it even more fun. I how ever do not think you should upgrade bad figures in the hopes they become good.
Brawn-weep-grawn-ah-weep ni ni Brawng.
Roof-Weep-Roofnah-Roof-Nini-Roof.
Brawn is
Nothing(Roofus).
Roofus is everything.
ThIs Is JuSt ThE gEeWuN dEsIgN!!!!!!!!!!!1!!!!!1111!!!
How dare!
I completely agree on the G1 bit. People say we complain about the Bay designs cause they're not G1, but Bumblebee's designs aren't exactly G1 either. They're G1 inspired, but also unique on their own.
Blitzwing looks NOTHING like his G1 design. Not even his colors! I still love it.
The Bumblebee movie slapped some detail onto G1 designs, and changing up like 3 proportions that make them just look bad, especially in live action. That doesn't stop the designs from being G1, they're still WAYY too cartoony to be believable in a live action setting. Brawn takes the most unique departure by also not looking like there's any possible way he transforms.
And Blitzwing was a seeker which was literally a G1 design. The model is used for every seeker in the Cybertron scene.
People praise the Bumblebee designs as if they're super creative, but these designs were slapped together in a week. They didn't do anything different, they just modelled like three designs and slapped together re used parts for almost all of them. For fucks sake, Soundwave shares almost half his fucking model with Optimus.
To be fair though, Blitzwing is just Starscream with the Serial number filed off.
What's your thoughts on the leaked photos of legacy blitzwing
I'll make a video about the leaks soon.
These bb Figs are turning out to be great. I know wheeljack may be slightly worse then theses 2, but these 3 really are great
We will see what I think about the Wheeljack on Sunday.
Id say the bumblebee designs are reimagining the g1 designs as live action designs and those hands should be called the fruity wrist flick
I don't think so. Nothing about them is the same. If all the shapes are different and how they transform are different, and all they do is Evoke the original's then they are new designs.
The Juggernaut helmet. This is exactly why this figure can be the start of a new Marvel Crossovers line with this (or an upsize to Voyager and the appropriate added engineering) repainted as ol' Jugglenuts, I mean Juggernaut. (That daaamn Juggernaut Headcrush from X-Men vs. Street Fighter...and it's even worse on consoles: the Saturn lets you pick two of the same character, so imagine a team super of TWO Juggernaut Headcrush at the same time. And the PSone version adding in Hyper Cancels from Street Fighter EX plus Alpha means start with a single Headcrush and go into a double Headcrush for maximum nut juggling pain. Only thing worse is Gambit's Royal Flush...) From there, they could probably reuse the Bumblebee Ironhide mold as Cyclops, maybe use Bumblebee Arcee as Storm, etc.
But yeah, this is a pretty neat take on Brawn.
Honestly. That would actually be KIND of fun. Like don't make them the Hero's who transform, do like an Amalgam thing.
His face from afar looks like the Bay Knight Optimus Prime , with his faceplate, in Juggernaut's helmet. And you can't say anything to change my mind.
This figure is really good. This is a great example of why I don't mind smaller figures. It's plus articulation, looks and transformation, minus size. Idk about y'all, but that's a fair trade for me. Although I hope we don't get much smaller than this. Anything smaller than this or WFC Cliffjumper will be a bit too small.
Great vid as always. A good way to finish a week, into the weekend.
Tbh, I thought I had it bad with only a wreck gar and a couple sweeps. Funny how people to the north and south of my state are finding Legacy figures, but I can’t find a darn thing.
I mean we both do. You can pick all these up on Amazon.
i've been roofed now i have to do it to some body else
Yes! Share the Roofing!
My Brawn actually had a few problems. The way the legs plug into the front wheels caused stress marks, and the gun hole was too large for its port on the back. The design is neat, but not enough to look past those problems. The best movie Brawn is still the SUV from Revenge of the Fallen.
Sorry to hear about your's QC. That is the biggest frustraition about being a Toy Reviewer. If you buy a video game everyone gets the same game. If you buy a toy, some just come worse than others.
@@PerspectiveEnd that's a good point. Aside from differences in tolerances, you never know when you'll get a paint error, especially with the current factories.
You’ve really got a point with who the bumblebee movie just had to get the basic shape and color down for you to recognize everyone in the Cybertron shot hell I think I recognized several characters in that one scene on my first viewing of the movie when with Crosshairs from Age of Extinction I did know who he was until year after the movie.
side note: did get my SS86 Starscream and it’s interesting the face is a new color and his fins are unpainted to match the animation like the two-pack of Skywarp and Thundercracker oh and his hands can now open which makes them look bad either open or closed. Upside to all this my Galvatron now has a throne.
Yeah that's the only reason I want that. The throne.
As for the movie. Yeah, I recognized literally every character instantly in bumblebee, and each time I saw a new one I was like "Oh! OH!" It was great.
So I guess legacy is now out and I got Blaster and bulkhead the only one's in store for me which is weird because I've never actually seen the kingdom box Blaster in store
I can't find either of those. Just went to some stores today. No hope here.
All I can find in ANY store is 86 Arcee
She's not bad, but that is lame.
@@PerspectiveEnd I know, I'm just not interested in collecting from the 86 line. All the shelves have 20+ arcees and maybe an SS Airazor
how is animated redraws of g1 like prowl was a motorcycle in animated not a datson cop car
I don't know! There are people who make that claim. I think it's just salty movie fans not being happy that that stuff isn't like the movies.
What are your thoughts on the recently leaked legacy blitzwing?
I'll make a Reveals and Leaks video in a few weeks.
Heh, you have the opposite issue to mine
I see an open mouth in that mess on his lower part of face, and i want to see nothing - just the mess
What mouth? There's nothing like that down there.
@@PerspectiveEnd i don't know, I can't explain it, my mind just fills in the gaps, somehow...
I was able to find one blaster and allt of slammers but I can't find hotrod.
Like the 86 hotrod from way back. Funny I just saw a bunch the other day.
I'm really a fan of this figure, he's got some issues but they aren't a dealbreaker to me. Honestly, my only two issues are his overly-detailed face, and the lack of any sort of cover for his hole in vehicle mode. This is definitely one of the situations where weapon storage isn't just a feature, it's essentially mandatory because at least SOMETHING is blocking the view of his head. Even then, I'm not too rough on it given that the Cybertron-only Bumblebee characters had absolutely no alt modes designed for them, there's only so much that can be expected when you force toy designers to take those designs and make _something_ out of them, and he still fares a ton better than characters like Shockwave or Soundwave.
I like this a lot my self, but I'm ok with the head hole.
I think the best part about this figure is its dynamic sculpt and the design it's based on, because of his proportions and everything, his articulation restrictions aren't that bothersome.I got mine yesterday and I've had so much fun posing him around.
Kind of precisely my thoughts. It's objectively not good on the posing front, but like I said with the shoulders it looks great. So while there is less poseability here than there should be what is there looks better than you would expect.
Which video was roofus’ origin again? I’m trying to find it.
If it's in a video it will be in the Fraternacons. Rufus is just something my brother called Brawn because he didn't remember the character at all, and he thought he looked like a Rufus. And the name just stuck because he was right.
lol thank you
Also, thoughts on Legacy Blitzwing?
I'll make a video on leaks and reveals in a week or two. No previews.
This is off topic, but I was wondering, will you be collecting all the legacy figures? I remember you said you're only completing Kingdom because it's beast wars, so I was wondering if you're going to do the same for Legacy.
I don't think I ever said I was only completing Kingdom because it's BW, especially since most of it isn't. This is my job now, so I will be grabbing everything to take a look for you guys so I can help you make informed decisions.
Well most everything.
If I'm not interested in a Titan I'm not grabbing that.
2:50 Which is actually part of his character.
Indeed it is so it's acceptable.
I found Legacy at my target and after a day the only one left was the Arcee. I dont blame the scalper
Man I would love to find a LEGAcee. I need them to review.
the new ercee
I can't wait for this guys! I have them all pre ordered! Haven't arrived yet!
Man take them off preorder and just buy them directly on Amazon. They are Prime Delivery figures.
So I was rewatching this video and I’ve been meaning to ask, why do you call Brawn Rufus?
It's something I started to do because my Brother couldn't remember his name, but he thought he looked like a Rufus.
@@PerspectiveEnd Okay, I understand now!!!
Might grab this, it kinda fits with iron factory. Don’t care about scale because honestly the “minibots” seem like they should be big characters(except for bumblebee and beachcomber)like for example I use generations warpath with my iron factory autobots.
Well I mean the whole joke of his character is that he's tiny but the strongest.
He's the Dutch Boy Toph of Transformers.
It may not be the best out of the bunch,but I find it the most enjoyable to play with
It is an enjoyable little spud.
Rufus may be the smartest transformer... Whoever read IDW more than meets the eye knows that Cubetronian does have a brain, as was shown when Tarn put someone's brain into their mouth... So Rufus has double protection for his tiny brain
Oh my God you are right!
The only designs that didn't work in the Bumblebee movie were the seekers.
Yeah the seekers are kind of the weakest in general. I think Shockwave had some really bad features. Like the MASSSSSSSSSSIVE gun arm that ended in a tiny gun, but over all the were the worst.
@@PerspectiveEnd Yeah. I mean why design the seekers without the Null Rays on the shoulders. Plus the head in the figure isn't good.
