It's taken so long that it feels weird now. Like I'm nostalgic for years ago when the hype was still fresh. (And yet somehow Bandit STILL isn't out yet...)
I really love how the set turned out. Jester looks very good in all of the modes. One thing is that the wings don't fold up more in bot and arm mode. I know, G1/toon style, but it would have helped in removing kibble.
I'd like to say "this set was made to please Geewunners, and they're only happy if the figures look as cartoon accurate as possible" but the Unicron trilogy is my G1 and the character models were designed after the toys so i can't say that without sounding like a hypocrite
Anyone else think that the Bio sounds like the opening narration of Voltron Defender of the Universe? Seriously reading it I could practically hear Peter Cullen reciting the legend of Voltron.
This whole thing looks awesome...hope Has ro comes out with a proper Superion done up like Menasor now...this group looks fantastic but i don't have the room for them...
I might be the only one wanting this but I would love these third party companies to make masterpiece scale versions of rook and especially alpha bravo, he’s my personal favorite from combiner wars :)
You know after watching this vid I can't help but wonder if anyone has made an updated version of the Energon Superion I see 3rd parties making G1 Superions all the time, but I don't know if any have done the Energon version at all. I'd certainly love to get a newer more posable version with actual hands. I love the original toy, and want to have it get some more love. Especially now that the legacy line has been bringing attension back to the Unicron trilogy figures. And we know Hasbro is only doing the G1 Superion team next year instead of the energon version.
i dunno why, but when i saw the thumbanil, i thought Slingshot was missing his head. maybe it is the coloration (orange) that is similar to the cockpit, that made me think that...
Looks good, but man the cost is a lot! Newage/Magic Square, please one of you step up as I don't want to wait a year plus for Aerialbots/Superion official release!
Do you guys think that an Alpha Bravo could be made next? I'm just surprised to find out that it was Slingshot that Alpha Bravo replaced after Superion took on Devastator and Slingshot was reduced to nothing be rubble and wires.
@@emgo316 ouch. I love em. They aren't as complex and good-looking as for example the thrilling 30 but I loved them. Sadly I couldn't get my self a titans class figure. Initially I was looking at the generations metroplex then I figured I'd get a fortress maximus, couldn't get my hands on either of them but I did manage to find a combiner wars Victorion. You gotta agree. Victorion is one of the best. Her sword🤤
as a balding young adult..im no longer laughing at slingshot anymore.
HGH Surge by Bio Align will cure hair loss. No joke, it worked for me and now I couldn't pull my hair out.
24 and starting to bald at the crown...same
Emgo: "Why are you fighting me now?"
Answer: Because the camera's on!
exactly
Funny thing is up until now I never noticed that Slingshot has basically the same/similar head style as Leader One from the Gobots, "goggles" and all.
Just an entire jet strapped to his back like every Arielbots😂
The fact they actually had a seated cockpit and not just have the head under the glass like EVERY SET EVER really impresses me
The set is finally completed, i almost forgot Fans Toys made a Superion

These Arielbots apparently came to the Danger Zone
Looking at his huge orange head takes me back to Max Headroom

Well now that Dream Star is no longer on the menu, I will need to watch the other Fan Toys videos to determine which Superion I want to invest in.
"Ah naw jester you're mine" Maverick- 1986
Wow you have a lot of work to do, thank you, can’t wait
Slingshot looks good
That was a great shot of the five bots together.
Ah, that's better.
(DSTs was too much silver and the qc complaints on silverbolt....oh primus)
A near 5 year journey with the ending in sight
Ive been waiting for this review ❤
“Yee haw Jester’s here!”
I also remember Slingshot shooting at Motormaster who transformed to robot mode and then jumped onto Slingshot and started pounding him!
🤣Optimus DOES need sensitivity training. That much it certain.🤪
To quote Goose: Yeeha, Jester's dead!
Love the yell at the beginning. Do it again!
Funny how Fans Toys finished this set but not the Menasor set they did years ago.

We need more plane / jet transformers with clean bottoms you know what I'm sayin? Or if Unique Toys made a UFO, that would also suffice.
This whole thing looks awesome...hope Has ro comes out with a proper Superion done up like Menasor now...this group looks fantastic but i don't have the room for them...
My head canon is Slingshot is Leader One's twin.
I might be the only one wanting this but I would love these third party companies to make masterpiece scale versions of rook and especially alpha bravo, he’s my personal favorite from combiner wars :)
And same goes to Dead End. Also completed Superion!
I always got a kick out of how Slingshot's head seemed like Hasbro kinda taunting Gobot Leader -1's.
Is it just me or does the head sculpt look a lot like 80's icon Max Headroom? 🤔
i can see it
Love the Top Gun references 😂
They are all named after pilots from the movie Top Gun.
Correct
His head reminds me of leader one from gobots.
Awesome figure
It looks so good. The only defect in my opinion is the need of extra parts for the combiner.
Do they all scale well with the legacy and WFC toys. might get this.
FINALLY! Now if only EmGo can get a hold of the rest of the Maximus Pro and Bastion teams (Ocular Max/Masterminds(?) And X-transbots Defensor).
The rest of the MMC set isn't out yet. Just got their hotspot though and I'm not finishing the X-Transbots set.
@@emgo316 Seems you got the Hotspot pretty late, but curious to see what you think of him!
Ya know after all this time I just realized that the transformers were doing yoga before I was a mainstream thing 😅😅

FINALLY WE CAN COMPLETE ETHERAON
In the cartoon, Slingshot sounds a lot like comedian Bill Burr.
How the F did I miss this yesterday?
i dunno why, but when i saw the thumbanil, i thought Slingshot was missing his head. maybe it is the coloration (orange) that is similar to the cockpit, that made me think that...
Fans Toys has taken soo long on the Aerialbots...have they finished the Stunticons?
Looks good, but man the cost is a lot! Newage/Magic Square, please one of you step up as I don't want to wait a year plus for Aerialbots/Superion official release!
OMFG! I just bought Zeta Toys Superion. I need these bootlegs in my life. Off to sell my Zeta . I prefer the cartoon look, myself.
looks very accurate
Knowing that you're a fan of Kill la Kill, have you seen the 40th anniversary music video by the same animation studio Studio Trigger?
yes
I would not object to 2 hours of EMGO's sexy voice 😅
Do you guys think that an Alpha Bravo could be made next? I'm just surprised to find out that it was Slingshot that Alpha Bravo replaced after Superion took on Devastator and Slingshot was reduced to nothing be rubble and wires.
A Third party figure called “Jester” , oh these companies simply jest
Emgo, I keep waiting for your review of Fanstoys Gehry and the JTI of it...
He’s on the way. Just waiting for him to be delivered.
Yay!
cool
Dunno why but the head reminds me of a balding quattro bajena with orange skin
Skipping trough videos?! Never with EmGo videos!
Man i miss the good old titans return and combiner wars days
I definitely don’t miss the combiner wars days lol
@@emgo316 too big to handle?😂
They weren’t that good
@@emgo316 ouch. I love em. They aren't as complex and good-looking as for example the thrilling 30 but I loved them. Sadly I couldn't get my self a titans class figure.
