What Leader Class Used To Be | #Transformers Dark of the Moon Leader Sentinal Prime - Розваги
I still have fond memories as a 6 year old, opening and playing with this figure for back in 2011, it immediately became my 2nd favorite leader class, first one being rotf leader prime
How did you even transform this? At 6 yrs old?
Its a really annoying transformation.
@@McRcFlyI always just had my dad transform mine untill I figured it out myself
Being a guy with a small budget, I've always collected Legends class bots. The Core class was an absolute dream come true for me and allowed for a small collection on the table to mess with.
Cool
Sentinel primes are always so hard to find nowadays. The only leader class figure o have is studio series leader Megatron from dotm and its a great figure
Im gonna buy leader class bumblebee
@@dawg694 I didn't get the joke till now. Lol
@@_V.Va_ haha
Most of my collection over the years has been deluxe class, but in recent years I've become a huge fan of how solid and chunky voyagers are, especially pre-Age of Extinction. I still love the modern stuff, but something about the amount of plastic you get in something like Generations Springer, DotM Skyhammer or RtS Lugnut. Solid chunky toys that feel great to handle.
Can't beat a proper chunky solid toy
I am a voyager class guy, the engineering is typically pretty solid and they usually don’t have the annoying repetition that a lot of car bots have (who are typically deluxe)
This figure... actually looks super sick. Especially the way that backpack is formed and how all those panels can be splayed and articulated like a proper cape. The poor balancing is unfortunate, though.
Same other than that he cleans up really well with utilizing all the vehicles parts. Pretty much i could say no shortcuts were taken
I had this figure as a kid, and I couldn't properly transform it for years. Definitely the hardest figure from the movie line. I kinda miss transformations that complex on official figures.
Sidenote: the hip joints on my Sentinel were REALLY loose (as in he couldn't stand up whatsoever without the joints giving out). good to see it was just my copy
It was mine too, and the whole chest would untab, was not a fun toy to play with after a while
objectively leader is great but as a kid, voyager was as high as my parents budget could get for me so my world was populated with deluxes and towering voyagers so those two hold a place in my heart
Leader class is great, I remember my mum bought me the Armada Optimus cab from a charity shop when I was younger, I think that was technically my first ever leader. The first brand new leader I bought was the AoE Optimus which I got on sale. I bought a bunch of TR leaders on sale too haha, had so much fun with them!
But now, leaders generally don't go on sale so I don't buy many.
I would say that voyagers are perhaps my favourite scale, good sizes and engineering and we get most of the main characters there. Only thing is that they are close to costing as much as leaders once costed.
I really like deluxe figures too, we can get main characters there too, the WfC figures from 2010 were incredible, especially Optimus. Even now, deluxes are still so cool.
Used to LOVE legends scale figures, that's what I started off with, as they were cheap and cheerful. 3p legends are incredible but so expensive.
I mean, they're as expensive as they should be dude, did you expect them to be the same price of a mainline legends figure?
Leader class is my favorite size class, due to all the figures I own in the size class being really fun to mess with and I like how big they are. My favorite leader is galaxy upgrade Optimus Prime.
I have to agree with you in that the leader class as some of my favorite figures of all time. TR Sixshot, Overlord, SS 86’ Dinobots and Kingdom Galvatron just to name a few.
I remember gettin this guy all the way back before the movie even came out. Had him for years before I finally sold him recently, such a fantastic figure but for me nowadays I want as close to screen accurate while affordable figures and KO stuff is what's been doing it for me.
that opening was hillarious
Your third
Place
@@Dominick6571 ok
I remember when my mom bought me Sentinel Prime for Christmas; it reminded me of what I felt when I transformed ROTF Optimus Prime for the first time. Yeah, he has his problems, but the fact that there is no fake chest, the wheels end up where they are supposed to be and that the transformation in general is so intricate yet fun makes him an amazing toy in my opinion.
Most of my all-time favorites are definitely voyager class figures. I think they've always reached that sweet spot between good robot modes, good vehicle modes and complex transformations. Nowadays, a voyager class figure is pretty much a mini-Masterpiece, so there is that. Also, I guess I am a bit biased about this because my first figure was ROTF voyager class Starscream.
Damn ironhide just got shot like he was nothing 😅
Good job making second place
@@Dominick6571 👍
Yes! Thank you for making this! After this it was never the same
Ever since I started collecting this year, my favourite without a doubt is the Voyager Class. Being the happy medium between a Deluxe and a Leader is definitely one advantage I like the most about it.
I personally love legends class, which then became cyberverse class, and now core class. When the 2007 movie came out I was a tiny little elementary student and obviously toys weren’t allowed in school. So some friends and I would sneak in 2007 movie legends class transformers which we loved, if only we knew better on how terrible they were. To this day I still love them especially because of the giant transformers such as titans and combiners are great to have alongside legends class figures.
I really like a lot of new leader figures, but there’s something special about old leader figures. Part of why I really like MPM Megatron is that he feels like an old leader class toy. He’s big, chunky, and has nice and loud ratchet joints.
My favorite size class has to be legends/core. I like tiny and cute things.
Transformers aren’t cute! (Except for Arcee or any other fem bots) the only core class that I have are SS BB movie Shoke wave and Ravage
@@hotwheelsbrothers687 Man got heated cause somebody called transformers cute
I know why they don't use the actors for the old leaders but when I was a child I was really put off that it wasn't the actual actors. To me, it made the toy seem like a bootleg and not a official toy and it put me off the old leaders
When you mentioned the gun sounds for when you pegged that gun in, since I didn’t know, I put in a gun then pressed the piece that activated the sounds and… it sounded different! It went from “I am sentinel prime” to, “What has happened to the allspark” and “Good to see you alive, Optimus!” So uh….. pretty neat
My favorite size class is probably deluxe or voyager,I like the small and very dynamic figures like those.But leaders are also something I wish to get more off
I bought this at an op shop when i was younger, it costed 10 bucks so when I got it I considered myself super lucky.
Greetings. Great to see Leader Class Sentinel Prime being reviewed on UA-cam again. I bought this at my local discount store in California way back in late 2012 after searching for him for about a year. His robot mode's tall and imposing and his vehicle mode sleek and boxy. Transforming him was a nightmare because of his side panels and small parts, though. Speaking of small parts, shame that my figure's side view mirror broke off at some point. I've never managed to successfully glue that mirror back since. Nevertheless, this figure was a good use of $25 and some change.
Regarding Leader Class Transformers figures overall, I also noticed that they weren't the same anymore. They stopped including electronic lights and sounds after the Dark of the Moon line and they've shrunk in size ever since. The last Leader Class figure that I bought was Studio Series Age of Extinction Grimlock in late 2018. I've considered that Grimlock to be acceptable by today's standards. Plus, I also bought him at a reduced price. Wonder if Leader Class Grimlock will be looked at later on.
For me, voyager figures almost always satisfy when it comes to complexity vs price vs scale. They have the most leeway too when it comes to being a bit bigger or smaller with more accessories. Leader figures are great but there just aren't that many of them, and a lot of the time they're taking HUGE characters and making them a bit too small (these days), or taking small characters and making them way too big (older leaders). I don't miss the lights and sounds at all, and I'm glad they got rid of those. Way too many older figures were built around having to accommodate those battery compartments and wires. ROTF Megatron was the worst offender probably. That thing looked awful to me even back in 09.
*ayo why'd you have to hit me with that intro so hard I wasn't prepared for that ;-;*
"Trying to figure out this transformation for the first time though was a bit of a pain took me about 15 minutes, but i was also like half trying to remove a fridge out of a wall. so there's that" genuinely laughed my ass off when i first watched this
Iron hide got hit HARD
I’m really out here at 6am watching this. Loved the video though!
Sameee, watching this during breakfast
This is the best sentinel prime to me, no doubt. I haven't seen that knock off yet but I just love the size, the complex transformation, the truck mode, the sounds, the weapons, even the inaccuracies like the chest, I love that even more than the final design from the movie
I loved leaders when i was a kid because big toy but as i grew older i learned to love smaller figures like deluxes, micromasters, mini cons and such
That intro was amazing! XD
My alltime favorite bot is a Commander and I have huge fun posing my titans, but I think overall I've gotta agree with the Leader class choice.
I don't think I've had a leader class toy fail to meet expectations but I can certainly remember being disappointed at least once by every other size class.
I really loved the way this thing transforms. everything folding in to each other to form the legs and chest was super satisfying to pull off, with the way the chest and legs all tab and click together. I still have mine but I lost his sword. There was also a weaponized mode you could do with it in the instructions where you could tab the shield and sword on top and make the button on the shield activate electronics.
This Sentinel Prime broke me as a kid, like I couldn’t understand how to transform it because I was a stupid baby.
Dotm genuinely might be my favorite toyline for many reasons such as growing up with it and honestly kinda hate myself for not taking care of my figures.
Fun fact:
Plugging in the weapons in Sentinel’s shoulders also changes the voice lines when you press the chest button!
I love the leader class especially the old ones they were fun to transform
I had this toy when I was a kid and it was my favorite. My friends brother has down syndrome and likes to throw things and one day he tossed it out my friends second story window and it hit the driveway and broke into a dozen pieces. Good memories.
I rarely got my hands on anything bigger than a Voyager, but regardless I'd have to say that size class is my favourite so far. It feels like the best of both worlds, bringing the chunkitude and accuracy of the larger toys together with the fun transformations, play value and (relative) affordability of the smaller ones. In particular, the Voyager class Optimus Prime and Megatron from the Transformers Animated: The Battle Begins 2-pack were my favourite Transformers toys of all time...until I got my hands on Studio Series Gamer Edition Optimus.
My favorite size class is voyager class because they aren't too big or too small just the right size with great detail, articulation, transformation, and obviously the robot and alt forms.
I like the voyager class and maybe some of the deluxe class figure where you think they are voyagers. They have the fun of easy to handle figure like the deluxes and the complexity of a leader. I just head this, "wow, this is a really fun toy" moments the most with voyagers the last couple times.
Ya about Dino. They finally had the license for Ferrari so they released Dino with an accurate out mode
Voyager class is my favourite because it's a perfect balance of deluxe and leader in my opinion
Can never forget the time I decided to transform ROTF leader Prime for the first time. As a kid, I was always pretty good at figuring out transformations without the instructions but ROTF prime will forever live in infamy as the one that defeated me. So far to the point where I needed a video tutorial.
Love that intro bro
My favorite size class is Legends/Core for price and storage. I actually have two of the Legends Sentinel Prime, the original and a Dark Sentinel Prime I painted purple and white to resemble a fire truck at Newcastle Airport, with the robot mode being mostly blue.
1:20 I have an red and black ratchet repaint in that mold!
Leader, for sure. However, I gotta stump for the new CORE class. Those little guys are wonderful toys. Been very surprised by them.
My favorite is leader class too because looking at them on self they look so good also really fun to mess with to
OMG THE NOSTALGIA!!
Also my favorite size class is deluxe... mainly cuz I can afford it
Sentinel: hold a gun
Ironhide: *chuckles* *im* *in* *danger*
This style of leader was always great, from the 07 movie, to animated to rotf, to dotm, they all were packed with cool stuff, now they're just voyager classes with extras
you can stand him up much better (more stable) while also keeping the legs straight if you use this method: straighten the legs as much as they will go and align them to be straight with the body, tilt the toe all the way up, ratchet the ankle forward once, place him down and tilt the toes down until he is standing straight. that has worked well for me and even with a light flick to the chest he still stays standing
MP, followed by Leader Class.
I still love this toy.
Sadly, this guy never came to my country.....the last leader class i saw was ROTF battle hooks damaged head Prime, and i knew he would stay for a while in my life....and that is the only leader class figure that i own, even as of date....I'm 20 now...
I miss older Leader toys, mostly in their size and density they had. the electronics are hit or miss but I'm grateful my grandma always got me the older figures since 2007 till DOTM.
I like voyagers! they're big enough to have interesting transformations and high posability, but small enough to not break the bank
I don't mind leader class but deluxe, legend/core and whatever size the pcc line is, it's my ball park. I love small figures for some reason and seeing that hasTak is bringing back the pocket sized class gives me serotonin. Especially Iguanus, I can't wait for him to be available for preorder
Sentinal was doing the smooth criminal moves
I think the scrapping of lights and sounds is kind of a good thing since that stuff usually goes in the chest and moves the center of mass upward.
I know this is an old video but commenting anyway. To date I still love this figure. I own 2 copies of him. Everytime I transform it he leaves a feeling of Zen accomplishment. I use his back crane arm to balance it out when on display because he is not fond of standing on his own.
I had lots of fun with my lader age of extinction optimus prime and now my favourite is leader class toys
I love the intro
My favourite size class has got to be leader because it just has this feeling that will always be part of my childhood 😂
Imagine you're Sentinel holding itself up. Mine has such loose ratchet hips that he bends all the way forward or backward when I try stand him.
when you put the gun on that port he can say 2more lines “ Good to see you alive Optimus “ and “What has happened to the Allspark”
Back when, leader class were conquerable to masterpieces class. Speaking of size,
Idk if you knew this, but when you plug a weapon into his right shoulder that noise signals a second voice line which he asks about the Allspark.
Yup someone Made me sad bcs of the opening but good review
WTF?! Does Sentinel Prime know that Thanos is “borrowing” his double sided sword staff thingy without his permission?……
Also please write a sweet musical composition using the individual ratchet clicks!!!!
Also Also, I’ve been binging your channel the past few weeks and the other day when I was out shopping for the folks I picked up the ss Coronation Starscream….. he’s so awesome!!! BUT………
This is very slippery slope for me seeing as I already WAY too much crap!! Lol! Still super stoked I got him though so thank you for that Mr. That Toy Guy!!
I like Deluxe and Voyager the most. Legends and core are usually too small. Old leaders were a great value but I never wanted huge figures with electronics. The old Scout class was excellent during BW/BM and Cybertron.
i actually really love the legends cyberverse legion and now core class figures their the ones i have found memoires collecting them. their small and were really affordable i like how third party are really doing this class some justice with stuff like new age and Ms.
More recently I’ll say that voyagers is my favourite size class because many of my personal favourite characters are voyagers and just a right size for me
I used to hate this thing bc I was a dumb 10 year old and couldn’t transform it. I’ve come around to appreciate it over time
Hi there. Try not to feel alone. Even grown-ups like myself still have a hard time transforming Leader Class Sentinel Prime.
My uncle gave me this along with a voyager ratchet, this sentinel prime was fun to play with but was a FREAKING PAIN TO TRANSFORM, LIKE BRUH TO THIS DAY ITS HARD TO GET EVERYTHING IN PLACE-ahem my bad but I still love this figure but it was quite a pain.
I can't wait for ss ironhide review
I defiantly love leader class. My most memorable transformer is the ROTF Optimus Prime with the swords. Great and very solid figure.
That leader class sentinel prime is so great
I have a hold of the leader jetwing Optimus, Ironhide, starscream and Megatron a decade passed we have studio Series and MPmore accurate version of there on screen counterpart I can't let these toys go!!
Leader class, but that magnus in my opinion definitely made me fear for leader classes future, than grimlock, Bw Megatron, and Slug really showed me leader classes could still be good (ignores x spanse)
I love this version more then the studio series
All i could think in the opening was "No my boy!" xD
Scout class human alliance figures will always be my favorite line
You should DEFINETLY do a poll contest over a couple days or weeks to figure out which is the best class of transformers amongst the community!
My favorite Leader-Class Transformer is Revenge Of The Fallen Optimus Prime; both the original and the MB-11 version. So I mostly buy Voysger-Class figures now.
I love leader class,
my favorite so far is megatron, and grinder,
unfortunately the first time I transformered grinder his skirt front piece cracked, so now I gotta buy another one,
I heard the plastic used for blackout is better, but as you mentioned the lack of being able to turn his wrist is a big turn off, along with the price,
but I did consider it, along with getting that Lil scropinok
I wish we would get bigger leaders tho, and more intimidating looking one's, like a good leader studio series galvatron,
and the fallen,
maybe a leader MEGATRON without the battle damaged head
those are the top 3 I want,
but I would love to see other's get made, maybe they could do a studio series sparkless, make it more realistic looking with rust hole's, maybe a piece of the mouth missing exposing the robot skeleton in different places, that could be really cool,
I do like the Mega size class from the Beast Wars stuff. Voyagers are pretty good too.
“What you must realize my Autobot brothers, is we were never going to win the war! For the sake of our planet's survival, a deal had to be made... with Megatron!”
_pew_
I really like voyagers personally. My Last Knight voyager Nitro Zeus is one of my favorite figures I own and Studio Series Scrapper is the figure that sold me on SS Devastator. I saw Emgo's thumbnail of his Scrapper video and I was like "Damn that guy looks fucking cool"
I like deluxe class figures
They’re fun and easy to transform, and are a good size. Take Kingdom Warpath for example, fairly simple transformation that only takes about a minute
if i had to choose what size class i had to go with the new day voyager mainly because i was 6 when tlk came oyut and that was like right before studio series so it has a special place in my heart
As for favourite toy class. I think it's Voyager because I really like to mess with figures of this size.
Back when leader class was a scale and not a price point.
I also got this recently for $20 USD complete, it's okay even putting aside accuracy I don't think it stacks up to modern leaders. It just sorta can stand there and look big. The sword but the shield in particular are awful because they don't actually peg into the hand anywhere like an MP, they just sorta sit there loosely/as tight as the hand can hold them. The transformation actually wasn't as complex as I thought it'd be, but it works out because the truck mode owns
Also to answer the question, deluxes. I think it's because they're plentiful, pretty easy to find on an aftermarket, and a lot of the time aren't too time consuming or annoying to transform but not too quick and boring to be lame. I think a lot of cool tricks happen in deluxes, because you have to fit things into a smaller budget
The old leader class was and will always be the best. The new ones look good but I dislike how smaller they keep getting. Soon core class will cost over $25 smh
Voyagers have been non stop bangers there’s not a lot of voyagers that I dislike
My favorite class of transformers toys is probably Deluxe or Voyager class. I like how I could just grab it and start transforming it easily. Also, I have SS Grindor and he’s a really cool figure. Idk why, but trying to get him into helicopter mode kind of a pain, but I might just be doing something wrong.
I still having this one and all the ROTF and DOTM Leaders, deluxes and Voyagers.
My favorite size class currently is core class I was and still am collecting deluxes but I started collecting core class because the affordable and the don’t take up a lot of space.
