it’s a real treat to see this guy in motion, most of what ive seen of him is just the photos on the wiki, new content of this big lad feels very special
I have seen Grandus featured on another Transformers channel and totally forgot about Grandus til I saw the YT short (a to z) of him.Awesome review of Grandus!
I always loved Grandus so much ! i would be so awesome to have a new titan from hasbro eh eh one can dream.... what an amazing figure! , awesome review!
Such a brick. LOL Still would love to get one someday. 😁 I would have sat there on the floor for hours as a kid, letting my imagination run wild. Sure wish they would do an Encore version of that line.
I am happy to see this great review to this amazing Japonese figure. We found Grandus in the same time, and i decided to create the missings parts.. It was normal to share this parts with you, i am sure, some days, you will find the originals ones...
Fantastic review! This has to be a UA-cam first or at least very close to it! I’m more familiar with the Brave Dagwon Dagbase version of this mould due to The Collector 75’s vid from after TFN 2019 funnily enough and I heard it had been retooled a bit for that release. The front of the aircraft carrier is totally different and Grandus has really cool Fortress Maximus-esque cannons on his legs. It retained the spinning radar dishes and antennas feature though. It’s a phenomenal playset, bristling with weapons and comes complete with super launchers!
There’s a line on the wiki page about this guy that makes me laugh “the creator of the Triple Changer must be spinning in his grave”. Thank you for these videos. It’s nice to see good quality videos of these rare pieces.
congratulations russ thats very greatest best amazing awesome review exclusive japanese return of convoy battlestars figurine grandus autobot transformers g1 1991. thank you buddy toys are russ have a great week-end god bless
Sounds like you’ve got yourself an amazing figure then. Plus as crazy as it sounds at a great price as I’ve seen this go complete for double what you paid.

Thanks very much for saying so, it’s great to share so people can see him too.
Great video! Man, that bot mode is a quintessential G1 brick!
Indeed it is! Still loads of fun though
Neat video. Grandus is great as a little (well, big) base. Love all the control consoles, garages, and the elevator.
Glad you enjoyed it

Thanks very much and thanks for sharing!
I say you've done Grandus justice here. Terrific job. :)
I say so too!
Did I do a grand job?
@@ToysareRussYou just ad to say it and yes you did. ;) :D
@@David315842 it was lined up ready for me.
@@ToysareRuss :D :)
Early on I had the chance to pick this 1 up, but I passed. Awesome that you have it- thanks for showing it! Definitely would make a cool playset!
No problem, glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for commenting

Also just noticed the aircraft carrier mode has ‘371’ written on it, which is Grandus’ number. How cool is that?!
@@RetroActionUK Yes, very cool, the Japonese Cybertron toys number write in the toys...
Thanks. I think it might be the only grandus review. So I’m pleased everyone is happy with it.

No problem. I will get around to doing videos on all of the others soon too.
That quote is funny, I’d not read that before.
You must show the BEST G1 Vehicule combination !!, GRANDUS and METROPLEX in a special video.
Will do soon, when I can remember it
An amazing figure, great review Russ! One that will have to stay on my list for a while before I'm in a position to go after one lol
When you go on the hunt for one, I’ll go after the accessories and Micromaster
Such a brilliant playset, awesome to see it all come together!! 😍
Thank you 🤗
That’s one chunky bot.always enjoy your Japanese exclusive videos.
Thanks very much. Loads More to come!
congratulations russ thats very greatest best amazing awesome review exclusive japanese return of convoy battlestars figurine grandus autobot transformers g1 1991. thank you buddy toys are russ have a great week-end god bless
Much appreciated!
@@ToysareRussyou're welcome buddy toys are russ transformers have a great week-end god bless
I paid a fortune for this guy a few years back. Haven't seen another in the same condition since. 2400 dollars US
Sounds like you’ve got yourself an amazing figure then. Plus as crazy as it sounds at a great price as I’ve seen this go complete for double what you paid.
I just bought the Studio series nest ratchet and he is a nice figure to have
I saw that today. He looked good
Great acquisition one of the hardest figures to get 👍
Thanks very much.
@@ToysareRuss No problem 😊
Amazing 👏
Thanks 😄
It looks so G1. But they had their attraction. Got core class Snarl today. Wish there was a way to show you my pics
Oh wow! That’s great. Can’t wait to get him myself
Hasbro update please titan it up amazing review
Thanks buddy. Titan definitely!
Imagine a Missing Link version of this!
i never completed having the trio, that grandus red cockpit part cost 10k yen at jauce. 🙄
All of the pieces for this guy are insane prices.
did the full join up based video come out?
No I’ve not done the battle stars platform video yet. You’ve just reminded me though. So I’ll get it done this week.
This needs the Titan Class treatment.
Definitely and obviously with loads more articulation.
Lol thankfully every micromaster is the exact same so you kind of do have it
True. I doubt very much I’ll ever find an original though.
Bro is massive
He’s a huge play brick!
You know what im just gonna do this joke
Why is grandus built like CaseOh💀
Why’s that then?
terrible robot, awesome playset! pretty much went full circle to the diaclone playset-robots of the pre-transformers era
It’s hard to actually call it a robot as it has no articulation. Play set though is ace!
That makes sense as they had quite a few of these robot-esque playsets for the smaller human figures.
