The Old Wreckers Were Better….Maybe?? | #transformers Dark Of The Moon Topspin And Roadbuster Review - Розваги
R.I.P Leadfoot order 🙏🏻
Rest in peace my friend 🙏😔
Rip leadfoot Order🙏
Topspin articulation: "Nothing at the waist"
*PROCEEDS TO SHOWCASE WAIST ROTATION FOR TRANSFORMATION*
As somebody with the Toospin toy, it does have waist articulation however, it is very very limited and you get only 3-6 degree of movement making it useless
@@leostrachan-evans7559 how do you only get 3 to 6 degrees of rotation when you rotate it a full 180 for transformation?
@@j0hn00 Kibble in the way that moves out of the way during transformation.
@@leostrachan-evans7559that only if you won’t move the kibble *slightly* out of the way
When he realizes Roadbuster’s wheels move, I love how he says “They move? What the hell??” 😂😂
I used to pretend Autobot armor topspin was leadfoot 💀
You’re so real for that
Fun fact. Ride evac design used Roadbuster. So the fact that their transformation is very similar is neat
The old Roadbuster used to be the closest thing I had to a Jazz figure and so for years I pretended that he was Jazz
Poor Bren never had a Sideswipe 😢
Pretender
@@PhelesDragon I did indeed not have a sideswipe until I was an adult
I miss these guys. They were among the first few figures from DOTM that I got along with bumblebee. Not to mention how into nascar I was and am. Pissed me off we never got deluxe Leadfoot here because Reed Sorensen was my favorite Racer back then.
I have owned the Roadbuster figure since it came out in 2011. I had no idea the hip wheels moved! That is crazy!
same!
Saaaame
So as a kid I absolutely loved my topspin, when he broke I was absolutely devastated. Years later I had the amazing idea to fuse him with multiple broken transformers of the following, 2011 skids, 2011 mudflap, 2014 evasion Optimus, 2011 bumblebee, studio series dino, and an old lego Optimus. After mashing them together I decided to give him the name Wideshot, he's in perfect condition and I absolutely love him
Link?
@@PhelesDragon that pic was from last year, he still looks the same but with Dino's arm blades
As someone who had a roadbuster when dotm came out, I was today years old when I found out the hip wheels move down 😅
I actually just got this Topspin figure last week, along with Human Alliance Leadfoot and Roadbuster. Store owner even gave me a 20 euro discount for nabbing the three together, which considering Topspin was listed as being 25, that's as close to free as you can get. Glad I had a lucky find like that!
“The ship? We were never in the ship! We designed the damn thing dint we?”
I used to have the original leadfoot because one of my family members got it as a gift for me when I was little
Love these throwback reviews for figures that I have in a box and haven’t touched for years. Memories!
And I am not wondering if I also knew whether Roadbuster’s wheels shifted down…?!! 😂😂
BTW I like how often you post it's really nice getting to watch a new vid every 2 days
Two of my all-time favs.
FYI, there are panels that fold out on Roadbuster’s missile launchers. The green panels on his lower legs also rotate a bit. And the arm ports aren’t spring loaded, only the top panel is.
Would love to get a Leadfoot someday to complete them.
After years of trying to get all the DotM wreckers just not able i got the SS ones when they were released and i am super happy with them all being in armored vehicle mode. They are the only SS i have left. But these were awesome way back when
So glad I rushed at getting a Leadfoot back in the day, the lineup is so fun. Just wish we'd gotten Roadbuster in his bulked up form... The reprolabels for these things also elevated them so much. Also even liked the race-car conversion Bumblebee mold with the racing nets for the door windows, really cool stuff. Ultimately I wonder if the Studio Series Roadbuster might not fit in better with the other two, though (I suppose scale might be an issue but I still really love Topspin and Leadfoot)
Topsin is well articulated! For MPM Wreckers, I want them to base it off THAT MOLD
Which a 3rd party company actually did a KO OS
I did a silver dry brush on topspin's gray parts to match the painted silver on his waist. Also painted some of the blue guns and pipes on his car mode silver and boy does he look great.
I like the new one better I’m JAUT having a hard time finding road buster and lead foot
I once handled a Topspin. It was missing its legs. If I could find some of these old DOTM toys, like Topspin, Roadbuster, or Soundwave, I'd die a happy man.
This video came at the perfect time I was just thinking about getting a Roadbuster to go with my Topspin. Topspin was a childhood figure for me and when I got him again I was so surprised at just how good he actually was.
I remember when I got Human Alliance Roadbuster, goddamn that figure was the first time I had a transformer that felt "premium".
The green panels of Roadbuster's inner lower legs rotate out for robot mode, and the missile clusters over his shoulders have another panel on the sides that fold out for robot mode
I used to have a full set of studio series wreckers but *huge epic breath in* leadfoots chest door snapped and over time became loose, topspin wierd shoulder door broke and his head disappeared, and roadbuster just poofed out of existence.
I love this roadbuster, still have it after all these years
My Roadbuster despite it's age and a few missing pieces (including the weapon and the missile pods) remains as a solid figure in my collection
I recently rebought topspin,roadbuster and track battle variant roadbuster and imo they look better than I remember still on the hunt for leadfoot
I own roadbuster, the 5mm ports aren't spring loaded on mine either, a thing pops out on the other side of arm to help push out whatever you stick in the 5mm cuz it's a snug fit
I've had Roadbuster since he was new. Never knew the wheels go down
A I have three of that topspin mold, and roadbuster.
Had the roadbuster since he came out, and never knew about the wheels.
I remember in Australia topspin was really hard to find it infuriated me as a kid it was like my holy Grail once I got it.
Totally gonna make “Ruby isn’t impressed” a reaction meme
Bro I bought a bin of random toys and I got the arm for roadbuster. I’ve tried to complete this toy ever since
my friend wanted to get me something, and this road buster figure is what I asked for. thanks, dudette
The gun ones also retroactively fit the Reactivate aesthetic.
I owned roadbuster as a kid and I have Topspin now, and love them both.
I want SS Roadbuster and Leadfoot so I can finally complete the set.
And Topspin just stomps his SS Figure imo.
But SS Roadbuster and Leadfoot I say are worthy updates imo.
These 2 were my childhood i also wish i got lead foot too 💀
I have that roadbuster and I've owned it since it came out when I was little and I never knew the wheels moved down
Crazy how the best three modern figures of these guys are Titans Return Topspin, Wreck N’ Rule Leadfoot, and T30 Roadbuster
They can be bangers but not in the designs where they’re actually a trio apparently lmao
speaking of leadfoot, I heard rumors that baiwei is going to do a SS version with possibly some upgrades of that guy.
(if its true, I might finally be able to start my wrecker collection)
The arm panels on topspins never had spring loaded mechtech 5mm, thats just how it was designed
I had both of these at one point. I have no idea where topspin went. I have one small piece from the back of the car as well as the guns. I still have rosdbuster but he’s yellowed on the arms somehow despised no sun exposure. I kind of want to buy topspin again, I really like his vehicle mode.
Ah, I remember having two Topspin Variants. The Original and a Grey and Red one (I forgot the name for it)
I always thought the transformation was so clever. I miss owning it..
Got my hands on a knock-off version of the original Leadfoot from a local shop for really cheep, it appears to be almost identical except all the brand logos are slightly misspelled.
All I'll say about it is a modified Gordon Ramsey meme: "Where's the bloody pegs!"
Those old two I LOVE THEM DEARLY. I need to get those two again I mess up as a kid
Man That topspin figure was one of my favorites
I never had these deluxes back in the day, though a cousin had Topspin. I did get a DOTM topspin from a friend but he was in eh condition and I needed up selling it off, which I do kind of regret. Currently the G1 toy is my only representative of that character. Thanks Titans Return scalpers…
I never was able to get Legion Topspin as a kid either, though I did pick up legion Roadbuster and Leadfoot. Leadfoot came in a two pack with a blue repaint of Cyberverse Commander Ironhide who I just decided was the third wrecker now
You can search for the KOs from Dream Factory of these Wreckers, they retool a lot of parts for movie accuracy
I know that the Takara DOTM Duluxe Leadfoot is pretty much made exclusively from Unobtainium??? But there are other KO options to getting that Figure like Toy House factory THF-02 or the Dream Factory GOD-03 both of which have been out for some time and are quite scarce now but worth seeking out and a darn sight cheaper than the official figure...😊
I only got studio series leadfoot since he was exclusive I found one and knew I had to jump on it. Didn’t realize the others would go for so much lmao may just get these to go with SS leadfoot
I just got my bbm Ironhide today
I remember fiddling with Roadbuster back in the day and the backpack has always been loose.
I have an orange road buster at my grandma’s house it’s pretty neat
I remember these guys shelf-warming since they were kind of dicks in the movie. Absolutely regret not atleast picking up Roadbuster then, that transformation looks super satisfying!
THE ROADBUSTER is the wrecker that i want the most it just looks fun
Cemetery Wind cancelled your order
I always thought it was weird they did one as a clean version and one as the armored up version. It seemed really silly to me especially with Leadfoot being armored up too from what I remember; like why not just pick one so all three wreckers would match??
I got roadbuster at a con new in box a few months ago and didn't know about the wheels either
I used to have human alliance roadbuster and leadfoot and my mom got rid of all my transformers but I remember both of them being a pain to transform
I got SS Leadfoot in Montreal for $70 CAD, I think the same guy has another one for $160 now, which is insane.
I just bought roadbuster a day ago , what are the odds
The KO Leadfoots are solid. I picked one up a few years ago and it's still intact. THF-02 THE PLUMB was the one I got
Have had both of these since I was a kid (had a redeco of Topspin idk of what but it was grey), I feel old for some reason now LOL
I have the "Autobot Armor" repaint of DotM Topspin (if I can ever get the original blue, that's gonna be Topspin with the gray one being Twin Twist). If I can get a DotM Roadbuster, I'd rather make it a nod to G1/T30 being a big boi and get the Human Alliance one. Good luck tryna find that Takara DotM Leadfoot (AND Soundwave), though.
Bro, 13 years with that Roadbuster, and now I realize the wheels can go down 💀💀
I always found it annoying that, despite it kind of being their whole thing in the movie, none of the toys released during DOTM had a complete set of fully weaponized Wreckers in alt-mode.
With the deluxes it was Roadbuster, Human Alliance had Leadfoot (not to mention HA didn't even get Topspin), and with Cyberverse (not that one) it was Topspin.
And yeah I know Roadbuster can do the thing where his rocket pods can fold out in car mode but that doesn't count.
2:36 the ports on the arms aren't spring loaded only the one on his back.
one of my roadbuster's wheels broke when i tried to move them down after just realising they could lmao
I like how you realized that the wheels moved but i bet you still don't know that the missile pods also have little flaps that fold out to become wings .😂
And the green pieces on the inner shins also move
Never owned them when I was younger but always wanted them, picked them up recently and I'm genuinely happy without the Studio series. These were worth it for the price, the ss isn't for what they do
I have the grey Topspin, and he’s a super fun figure
so back in I think 2010 or 11 I used to owned roadbuster but he broke and I think it was on the back and I have no idea what happened to it
Fun fact: the mech tech ports on roadbuster arms aren’t supposed to be spring loaded, you have to manually push them in and out
I have roadbuster
When I moved, someone left their Topspin Figure behind
I still like these guys a lot, but I prefer the Studio Series Roadbuster and Leadfoot. But the original Topspin is the one that sits on my shelf. He’s so interesting and cool and he fits right in with modern movie toys so I probably won’t be getting the Studio Series.
Studio series just makes me want the originals (almost) every time
Waiting for you to notice the little wings on Roadbuster's missile launchers, now.
Next review you should do 2007 longarm
You didn't technically do anything wrong by the wheels, at least according to the instructions, because the wheels and most of the upper arm transformation isn't in the instructions, I remember this shit somehow.
Also you can relax on the "chalking it up to being used" because I got mine sealed at a yard sale, very awkwardly taped together with sealed deluxe starscream, (very slightly regret not getting the sideswipe soundwave combo) and it took only like 2 weeks for mine to manifest very similar defects, mine has a doubly floppy shoulder on just one side, the head likes to split from the ball joint, various chips and gouges in the plastic abound, and the wheels have rusted pins because my sister hid it in the yard for a few days
Also those little panels on the insides of the shins, those also move, that however CAN be chalked up to misremembering the instructions
Better plastic, better design, better size. Yes, sometimes, old toys are better
I bought Topspin for £8 in a bargain store. They did have the grey and white one but I didn't liked the colour on that one. Have lost his mechtech weapon but had kept his main weapon which is more important! This was before I came back into the fandom so when I saw the SS version, I was unimpressed how small he is (didn't know the smaller size are the new standard) to the mainline version so I never got him.
I tried to move the left hip wheel on mine but it just broke off 😢
Is the roadster the human alliance ? I’m about to do a review on this myself he’s so bad ass
I have a grey version of this Topspin and I was wondering if you know its official name.
My favorite transformers have always been the wreckers especially roadbuster so I honestly prefer the studio series. Because it more accurate and the vehicle mode is perfect. But top spin 100% choose this one
we saw 3rd parties doing wacky stuff like triple changers with black magic transformation, when will we get 3rd party Wreckers that transform from Nascar to stealth force and robot mode?
Topspin is definitely better than the SS one; Roadbuster is a tie, but the SS has the armored car, so that gives it an edge; I'd argue SS Leadfoot is an update to the original
Original deluxe Leadfoot is awesome, I have it. The other two are meh. The Studio Series versions were also pretty meh, but at least they weren't subject to the QC issues these original two had.
yoooo i got roadbuster MISB for free at a yard sale🇨🇦
roadbusters ports on his arms arent springloaded only the one on the roof of his alt mode is :p
The SS Topspin is basically just this one with better paint……. But with less decos for some reason
For me the problem with the ss is leadfoot's red is bland, topspin lacks red and roadbuster's visor is green and not red
Dotm Wreckers were so weird. You could never get a complete team or a team fully weaponised. Human alliance didn't do topspin and leadfoot wasn't weaponised. Cyberverse you could get them all but Topspin wasn't weaponised and Deluxe Leadfoot was hard to get and Roadbuster wasn't weaponised.
Road Buster doesn’t have springs in the arms only on the roof of the car
A protoform getting ripped limb from limb, jeez I wonder why 💀
I had owned roadbuster and honestly regret losing it after seeing the ss
So far, the only one I need for my collection is topspin.
That’s funny. I have three topsins! Two with the beige deco and one as the blue deco.
@@dbartstopmotionstudios3404 you mean two armour topspins and a regular one?
You mean two autobot armour topspins and one regular topspin?
