Vector Prime's alt mode always struck me as something of convenience to get around rather than a disguise, so the fact that all the robot bits are visable worked for me. Beta Maxx could have been called Xaaron, but that might have been too much of a stretch.
The thing I love about this is, Fun Pub fiction (Forest Lee specifically) could've done the predictable thing and had this just be G1 Alpha Trion in a new body, or ignored the reuse of Vector Prime's mold entirely. Instead [SPOILERS] they made this Shattered Glass A3 instead!! That was a magnificent plot twist, I fricking loved it when I finally got the chance to read that story this year thanks to scans online!! 8D
I used to have the Vector Prime this was based on, it was pretty cool from what I remember. The same time I got the Vector prime I also got that Cybertron Hot Shot or Red Alert, I don't really remember. It had a gigantic missile on it's vehicle mode that opened with the Cyber key, which was the best part of the toy in my opinion.
Yep, this guy'll cost you, but he's so great. I like him so much, even though he's not my favorite Botcon figure I own. That spot goes to Deathsaurus. Great review!
Having an original Vector Prime (Hasbro Version), even on him the wrist guards never locked 'up' or 'forward' and it was only by the grace of the shoulder pauldrons that the wrist guards don't move in vehicle mode.
Now I need to hit ebay for a replacement of my Vector Prime's sword...man is it cool looking! That weapon has been lost for so long I even forgot how it looked :(
I remember really loving this mold but trying to get my hands on it has found to be very difficult, i made so many fanmodes with this .... man I really wish i could explore my galvatron fanmode and make it a custom Also Could you possibly do energon.... or maybe it was universe 1, barricade i still got the guy and he is so fun, albeit lacking in some articulation but i found he was fun to just mess with and fanmode.
+Sir Grim Locksmith VIII I started watching this video almost immediately after it was posted, so the video hadn't properly been processed yet, making the only available quality option 144p. At first I thought TJ had accidentally screwed up the rendering, but I was mistaken.
Beta Maxx should really be a SHE because the name is based on A-3's girlfriend from the G1 episode "Forever is a Long Time Coming" though I'm not sure why they added the "Maxx" part as the original character was just called Beta.
As a Shadow the Hedgehog addict, I am inclined to agree. However, what does that have to do with this review? Mega Drive Megatron came with a Sonic cartridge though...
review a g2 toy please mabye that combat hero prime toy or a laser sword toy mabye that one prime figure withe the white bit at rhe front from g2 i liked thet figure anyway botton line g2 please
could you please review tfg primes or Megatron.Maybe the combination of prime and silverbolt along with his review please it would awesome if you would.
Transformers generations prime us an obimanation that proves that nothing will probably beat classics optimus prime as the best Optimus prime representation
+Jetfire48 Face it. The Classics figure isn't great either. Fake lower chest, loads of kibble on the arms and back, unnecessary yellow paint, and without the weapons he looks bad in vehicle mode.
There is an Alpha Trion redeco of Minimus Ambus releasing with the Takara version of the new Ultra Magnus figure, but he's smaller than Beta Maxx here so YMMV...
I like to call the alt mode "time yacht"
Lol
Just subscribed dude :D
Lol
+Jetfire48 thnx dude :)

the reason why this alpha trion looks like this is because this was when he was fighting unicron with the thirteen

5:00 Whenever you fire off a BotCon exclusive missile on camera, scraplets eat your bank account.

i enjoyed the live stream. It was nice and relaxed and a good fix between videos
If Optimus is Luke Skywalker, Alpha Trion is Obi-Wan. :D
then who's darth vader, armada wheeljack?XD
aligned megatron is darth Vader.
"beta max"? well, thank god he isnt a headmaster, otherwise it would've been named laser disc. or VHS
"Beta max" . Congrats hasbro. You did it
I'm still surprised that this molds sword never was upsized and released for Cybertron Optimus.
Cybertron was definitely my favorite line, especially because of the cyber keys
Here's to hoping Prime Voyager Alpha Trion isn't just a recolor of Legacy United Vector Prime.
keep up the good work
knew you would review it
Yep, this guy'll cost you, but he's so great. I like him so much, even though he's not my favorite Botcon figure I own. That spot goes to Deathsaurus. Great review!
Transformers: The Basics on Vector Prime...what if The Doctor regenerated into a Cybertronian?
Having an original Vector Prime (Hasbro Version), even on him the wrist guards never locked 'up' or 'forward' and it was only by the grace of the shoulder pauldrons that the wrist guards don't move in vehicle mode.
I have that repaint of Vector Prime that's gold, black, and orange. Not like Sideways.
I mean this is shattered glass alpha Trion so the old warrior look really fits
vector prime mold! yes!
This must be the only official alpha trion we are going to get but MAYBE 3rd party companies will create their own homages to the character
4 years and 2 retail Alpha Trions later...
the takara combine warriors ultra magnus is going to have an alpha trion (a repainted minimus ambus)
Actually, I looked up some images, Vector Prime's wings weren't angled inward, in either the show or the toy.
Vector Prime was basically the Time Lord Doctor of Transformers Mythos right?
Spaceship! Spaceship! Spaceship!!!!
Yours for only between 350/500$!

Lol +expensive shipping and etc
Now I need to hit ebay for a replacement of my Vector Prime's sword...man is it cool looking! That weapon has been lost for so long I even forgot how it looked :(
OH NO .....BETA

Damn, you have to love Transformers Cybertron!
I remember really loving this mold but trying to get my hands on it has found to be very difficult, i made so many fanmodes with this .... man I really wish i could explore my galvatron fanmode and make it a custom
Also Could you possibly do energon.... or maybe it was universe 1, barricade i still got the guy and he is so fun, albeit lacking in some articulation but i found he was fun to just mess with and fanmode.

I had some trouble, it kept freezing.
oooh titans return alpha trion up next :) I would be more excited if titans return wasn't qc hell.
Riley Graves
"QC hell" kind of describes all of hasbros toys from mid 2015 til now. The TFCC toys are good though.
Will you post the live online? PLS
It's a great toy. :D
He is also i think a shattered glass alpha trion
He is
Beta Maxx should really be a SHE because the name is based on A-3's girlfriend from the G1 episode "Forever is a Long Time Coming" though I'm not sure why they added the "Maxx" part as the original character was just called Beta.
RialVestro Beta Max is a video format. A old format.
Sonic Adventure 2 is awesome.
As a Shadow the Hedgehog addict, I am inclined to agree. However, what does that have to do with this review? Mega Drive Megatron came with a Sonic cartridge though...
review a g2 toy please mabye that combat hero prime toy or a laser sword toy mabye that one prime figure withe the white bit at rhe front from g2 i liked thet figure anyway botton line g2 please
could you please review tfg primes or Megatron.Maybe the combination of prime and silverbolt along with his review please it would awesome if you would.
Transformers generations prime us an obimanation that proves that nothing will probably beat classics optimus prime as the best Optimus prime representation
I don't understand what you are saying?
Obmination*
Transformers generations prime is just a remold of the motormaster mold plus it doesn't look as great as classics optimus prime
+Jetfire48 Face it. The Classics figure isn't great either. Fake lower chest, loads of kibble on the arms and back, unnecessary yellow paint, and without the weapons he looks bad in vehicle mode.
did his minicon's name come from big hero 6?
No it was I believe in 2007. Way before Big Hero 6
Technically there was a big hero 6 comic that came out way before the movie
Who's Beta Max?
Why is Beta-maxx a cringy name?
There is an Alpha Trion redeco of Minimus Ambus releasing with the Takara version of the new Ultra Magnus figure, but he's smaller than Beta Maxx here so YMMV...
Probably wasn't announced before this video was made because he ore made a LOT of videos to be uploaded later
