When Perspective starts a video by repeatedly saying yes, you know it’s good.
It is a rare occasion that I get to be this happy.
@@PerspectiveEnd hoping Sandstorm and Gears can do the same.
Hey Man,Thanks for the Shoutout! The surgery did go well,as for the figure,i always thought Tigerhawk had a Awesome design and this Figure just amplifies that to the extreme!
I still remember the part Tigerhawk said," Tigerhawk, I like the sound of that." is one of my favourite lines because it establishes the Tigatron and Airazor in him, having Tigatron's voice and Airazor's personality
Yeah. It's too bad that they killed him off only a FEW EPISODES AFTERWARDS!!!!!
@@Ironmew05it wasn’t even a few literally the next 😭i guess he was just to OP to be kept around
@@Jaxionisnum2 nah it was bc hasbro were unsure of whether they were gonna release the toy or not. They eventuely descided to release it and asked for him to be in the show which they did, only for Them to become unsure again and ask for tigerhawk to be killed off in the finale (which was right after his introduktion). The toy was eventuely released... a few months after the characters death.
I thought the Beast Wars animation looked antiquated, but then I saw Rodimus Primal's retrospective on Dinobot and I knew I had to give the show a chance, no regrets
Tigerhawk started out as a TransMetal 2 version of Silverbolt before they changed him into a Tigertron/Airazor combo. That's why his beast mode has almost the same configuration.
G2 and Beast Wars were having an insane block party everybody missed
Agreed. To their detriment too.
With Beast Wars I've always felt that it's a bit like Portal 2 or Borderlands 1 or even Halo CE in that it's AGED, but there is a strong enough Art style and design that you don't really notice that age because every other visual aspect has such a fucking strong feel of, 'Yes, it's MEANT to look like this.'
Or maybe I'm insane.
If you said portal 1 I’d agree but how has portal 2 aged it still looks really good to this day
No I agree.
Beast Wars has such an iconic look that any attempt to remaster it would just end up making it look worse. Just look at Halo CE Anniversary.
I dont think I've seen you express so much emotion on a single video.
"I don't know why he needs a hard line directly to take control of shitting ..." Made me spit out my drink laughing lol
Beast Wars animation has aged a bit but it was so cutting edge and the writing was so good its also aged amazingly. Rewatched the series a few months ago with my partner who is only somewhat into Transformers and now she LOVES Dinobot and Rattrap and was genuinely sad/upset that neither of them were in ROTB.
Absolutely, I'm not arguing that it hasn't aged, but it's definitley not ugly.
And of course she does. Those two are some of the biggest highlights of the show.
Beast Wars is peak.
I don't care what people think. These characters are amazing. Usually the villans are one-note, bad because bad, generic villans. But in BW, they have solid motivations and personalities. The visuals hold up well, and the Voice Acting is stunning.
Y'know despite being born in 2008 and seeing so many shows when i watched beast wars i never really thought that the animation was bad. I just was like "it was the best of it's time and it still holds up today" i never really thought it was ugly. I really enjoyed it
Beast Wars still looks gorgeous and so does this figure. Immaculate.
It never really clicked in my head that Tigerhawk is a Transmetal 2 Fuzor. Damn!
100% agreed.
I KNOW RIGHT!!! IS THAT NOT AWESOME!
The ultra Magnus callback was hilarious 🤣
I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that Tigerhawk's OG toy was meant to be an updated silverbolt at some point in development, hence the fact he's like, the only transmetal fuzor. Could be wrong about that though.
His chest model was from polar bear.
Funny that they would've just switched him from wolf to tiger.
I love, and I mean LOVE how tigerhawk's alt mode has the buffest ever front and then a twig like behind, i love it so much
Just like the Vok, Hasbro dragonball fusion Airazor and Tigertron from Kingdom, into Legacy fuzor Tigerhawk, and did an awesome job.
I got mine recently and its probably one of my favorite figures.
His robot mode is ridiculously awesome looking with no fake parts, all you see goes were you expect it to go and its astonishing how they managed to do that.
Im fine with having not wrists swivel for the trade off of having sword welding wrists.
The transformation some how is manageds to be extremely complex without becoming complete mess.
The parts all go and hold together well and have satisfying steps to them.
By the end you have a nice and solid alternate mode.
I at first did not like the tigerhawk mode when looking at pictures but its quickly grew on me once i had it in hand.
The top heavy front half looks so cool and strong however its a bit of a strange choice that they made a whole set of unique alt mode feet instead of using the robot mode ones,
They could have freed up engineering for better leg articulation but what we got works fine to.
The back half works surprisingly well.
On pictures the hind legs seemed ridiculously small but in person they work just fine.
Of course i understand why some still might not like how small they are but for me they actually look good because they do look like bird feet which helps to make clear its a fusesor.
The one part that i still dont quite like about the figure is the wings.
Proportionally they are fine articulation is fine but they just dont look as natural as airrazor or silverbolts wings.
They should have doen the overlapping wing design that airrazor had to make it look more natural when the wings are completely folded out.
Final thoughts on the figure.
Regardless of my critiques of it it is still a fantastic figure that dose all the things i wanted it to do almost perfectly.
I would highly recommend it if you are a beast wars fan, even if your not you would probably still really enjoy the figure.
I'm not surprised it's one of your favorites now.
For sure it's sick as hell looking.
I find that sword weilding wrists are more often useful my self.
The only problem with the transformation is how much the shoulder piece likes to pop off, everything else about it is super fun.
It is funny how Back Light the tigher mode is, but it's just so bad ass I don't care, and it's enough like the original to make me very happy.
I wonder what a Regular Transmetal Fuzor would have looked like.
I can't agree that Silverbolt's look better. They are so small and stiff and wrong.
I'd recommend it to non beast wars fans.
@PerspectiveEnd on my figures the sholder piece never pops off I didn't even notice it wasn't pinned.
Also I noticed that you can get way more up on the tiger head articulation by opening up the panel on the back of the head used for extra robot mode possibility.
Also yes seliverbolts wings are a bit small but what I meant was that silverbolts and airrazors wings have overlapping pieces that make the poses you can do with the wings look way more natural.
This is best observed with Airrazor who can pull off a ridiculous amount of natural looking wing poses.
It would have been nice if Tigerhawks wings weren't so bracketed off from the rest of the wings.
Still is a amazing figures regardless of its few flaws.
Eating Easter breakfast with this!
I knew you would love this thing!
In my head cannon, the folks at Hasbro were shooting for a Sphinx to square off with their Megatron dragon. Someone didn't know what a sphinx was so tossed around the animals that make one up like a salad. As soon as he said Tiger and Hawk, the marketing folks stopped dead in their tracks and declared 'That's much cooler. Lets go with that!'
Man a Sphinx Beast Former would have been cool as hell.
man you really hit the nail on the head.
Tigerhawk is basically "What if beastwars, but Generation 2. " i love it.
I'm glad to hear that I was insightful for once.
This is peak transformers😂 also I just got to the part where you asked the beast wars question and my answer is I watched it I don’t like it it’s good for it’s time and a pretty quality show. Even new transformer shows have a hard time keeping up with it so I really like it. Keep up the good work.❤
You are right on Beast Wars, the show literally carried the franchise and arguably saved it. I'm G1 fan but I love watching beast wars. Tigerhawk looks very cool without a doubt, thanks for the review!
Absolutely, a lot of people act like the Bay Films saved the Franchise, but the Franchise was going strong at the time.
The Falloff in the intervening time between G2 and Beast Wars was serious, and Beast Wars is what put the Franchise on it's back.
And I'm happy to do it. Especially when it's on something this good.
"Tigerhawk Beastmode!"
Thank you for the comment.
Nothing makes me happier than someone defending beast wars❤
Of course I would defend Beast Wars. Beast Wars was amazing, and deserves so much more recognition than it gets.
It's so great to have this, dragon megs, and potp optimal optimus! They all naturally go super well together on the shelf, I'd have to pick tigerhawk as the best of the 3, it's so damn good!
Literally got this last night. Beginning of the vid was my reaction to seeing him on shelf
Hi PE! I'm a 48yo g1'er that grew up with g1 as the end all, be all favorite toyline of my childhood, and the only member berry IP i collect as an adult. I've only been collecting since the end of kingdom, so my experience with anything other than the live action stuff, and g1 cartoons/movie, has only happened in the last 3 or 4 years. So you asked for someone who saw BW after hearing its animation was bad for years to tell you what they thought. Well, at first yeah, it was a little bit off putting. Not the modelling though, more the generic super plain environment. The characters were actually animated amazingly good in general, but when you comsider the era they come from, and their place chronologically in CGA history, HOLY CRAP! To do it that well, so early on, without anything coming before to draw inspiration from, or learn from, makes me wonder just who on that crew sold their soul at the crossroads to accomplish what they were able to? Now, to be honest, I've not made it through season 1 yet, i just cannot get sucked in. I'm at a loss to why though. The storytelling is top notch, characterizations are absolutely iconic, the world building is great, and the issues i had with the background animation, was totally forgotten about in an episode or 2. Dinobot, is my dude, and his relationships with the rest of the Maximals, and Predicons is probably the highlight for me, especially him and Rattrap. I don't get what's keeping me from binging it, like i have ao many of the others. I've got a ton of respect for the show, and have had enough spoiled for me, to know its going to get REALLY great later on, so why won't I watch it? With the Unicron Trilogy, it's cut and dry, i just cant get passed the understandably clunky dialogue. I just can't take it seriously, but wirh Beast Wars, I seemingly have nothing I can point to, as the reason I won't finish it. I lovw every aspect if it. I've got almost all of the modern figures on my shelf, so whats my major malfucntion? It's NOT the animation, i can say that for sure! So, to FINALLY directly answer your question, I think it looks great. It holds up very well in 2024, but in like 95ish? Whenever it was new, i can only imagine how blown away I'd have been! It's such a beautiful, roundbreaking, and pioneering series! Perhaps I'm taking my time, savoring it, so I can enjoy the 1st watch through, for the maximum amount of time? It's been about a year, and I'm probably 3/4 the way through season 1. Who knows, but I've got mad respect and love for it.
I just got this guy, I was already excited but man once I got it in hand. I completely agree with you! I’m happy you look as excited as I was with him xD
Nice! Glad to hear that you enjoy this thing as much as I do.
That intro of silence and then sigh made me think you hated it and then YES
It was meant to make you feel a little uncertain.
I got mine the other day and agree good sir.
YES.
Nice! Glad to hear that.
I was never much of a Tigerhawk person, I’m a rattrap kind of guy. But anyways, he appeared for 3 episodes but my god those 3 episodes were hype. But cmon, he’s A *TRANSMETAL. 2. FUZOR.* ITS FUCKING INSANE.
Tigatron & Airazor: FUUUSION---HAA! we are----TIGERHAWK!!!!In memory of Akira toriyama.
I grew up with transformers Animated and transformers Prime. I then gave beast wars a chance and my goodness, best decision of my life. Amazing characters, great voice-acting and sound track, and a very well-written plot. Ofc the animation is outdated but you really get used to it and it fits the overall ‘feel’ of the show. People need to know that this was revolutionary for its time and it was the most expensive cartoon ever produced. Highly highly, HIGHLY recommended!!!
I'm so happy to hear that! Beast Wars is by far my favorite show in the franchise, and it gets weirdly disrespected by the people who've never seen it. People who have watched it don't have a bad thing to say typically, but so many who've yet to try it just turn their noses up like it's an Olympic event.
Glad to have one more person who can enjoy it.
I needed to see this. I had a rough week recently and just seeing this review made my day (and most likely wanting the figure now even though I'm not a die hard Beast Wars fan). Thank you Perspective.
I love this figure! Can´t wait for mine to arrive! As I said in your Livestream The only thing I don´t like is his beast head, I see bear´s head, not a Tiger´s head... Yeah he is definitely Polar Claw!
Wait? What Livestream did I do? And I'm happy to hear you like what you see, I think you will be blown away.
I watched beast wars after hearing u praise it to the allspark and back (and also the entire show is on youtube) and while the animation is very much dated (specificly the enviroments) the sheer greatness of everything else completly makes up for it and by the time of the second episode i stopped noticing the flaws cuz i was just having such a good time watching it. Seriosly its one of my favorite tv shows PERIOD! And i cannot thank u enough for convincing me to give it a chance.
Yeah, even as a Beast Wars fan, I admit one of its greatest weaknesses are the very plain outdoor environments.
mainly the first season since they had to redo all the characters after deciding that hyper-toy accurate designs looked awful@@enrique6335
0:01 - 0:11 The pure unbridled joy makes me happy!
I'm so happy to hear that.
@@PerspectiveEnd you should be!
I had the exact same reservations about the short robot legs and lack of posing on the wings before getting him, but oh boy did those melt away when I got him out of the box. For one thing the legs look less out of proportion in person, and the rest of him is so awesome it doesn't even matter.
I'll also say mine doesn't have problems standing even with the wings back, and that chest panel on mine is solid.
Yeah, they aren't an issue when you get it in hand, it's just all glorious.
Hi PE. I finally got for myself an MP Skyfire. I got him at a discount, since this one has a wingflap rather bent. IMHO this Jet mode really did not need a wingflaps gimmick. I would have preferred solid wings. Anyway, while I am certainly impressed, there are definitely a few problems with him.
1) You said his transformation was good. We must have been handling different figures then. Skyfire's backpack keeps fighting me, when I try to shove in or out his arms, and when I try to compress his backpack. An unholy amount of force is required to close his backpack. I watched Emgo's vid, and noticed even he didn't compress the bottom part all the way.
2) I am genuinely worried that his white would turn yellow. Then again, FT Phoenix was white and didn't turn yellow, so maybe there's hope. But I have personally handled enough Takaratomy and Hasbro stuff to know, if there is one thing you can count on, is that white = yellow.
3) At least 2 reviews reported that ratchets of Skyfire giving way. One of them was TMreview. I don't think it's a widespread issue, but enough to be concerned about.
4) I know people don't like to leave his butterfly joint tabbed in, but I do. And my goodness, that thing likes to come out every time you move his arms.
Overall, I like this guy, but I worry about the longevity.
I'm glad to hear that you are impressed even if you see issues.
1 I don't mean to insult or anything, but I think you might be doing something wrong, if you have to put in that much force, something may not be in the right place.
2 I don't expect that it will, they are using more premium proven plastics in the MP line than Chug does.
3 I can say mine are still good.
4 Sorry that part is a frustraition to you.
I think he will hold up, but I'm glad you like it.

Making beast wars Megatron proud I see
Oh so very proud. Honestly I should have broken out the impression for one of those.
@@PerspectiveEnd I thought you were going to tbh
1:36 this had me like that meme of Leonardo DiCaprio pointing at the TV
You are one of the real ones.
considering how honest you are when it comes to most figures, when you say BUY IT! it must be special.
Indeed, I save my recommendations for the best of the best.
Its always nice to see this dude happy
It's rare that they hit it out of the park like this.
I was told that it was an ugly show and I was lied to. It's really well animated and I think it's beautiful to this day. And I absolutely agree with your assessment of the writing quality as well.
Absolutely, there are some things you have to get over, or look past, but quickly those melt away, and all you can do is enjoy the show for it's amazing quality.
thank you so much for the shoutout man! It was really fun to participate in the weekly art contest! Thanks for the channel shoutout too!
2:57 I saw it a couple years ago, it is now my favorite show of all time along with The Clone Wars.
That thrills me to hear. I love seeing new fans get added to the Beast Wars Pile.
I was actually introduced to the Beast era through Beast Machines, as I watched that show first, because Beast Wars wasn't on Tubi at the time, and though the show was fine at best for me, when I went to watch Beast Wars, it was like a breath of air sent by heaven itself, because I could actually look at a show without wanting to rip my eyes out.
You’re the only Tf reviewer I watch … been broke can’t buy as much … but you make me happy n entertained lol
Man, Tiger Rock is the name of the Taekwondo academy I attend, I can't tell you the confusion when I saw this notification and went "why is PerspectiveEnd talking about my Taekwondo academy" and then I clicked it and it was Tigerhawk. My confusion quickly turned to joy but still lol.
To answer your question, I got into Beast Wars after Watching Rodimus Primals retrospective on Dinobot and I saw how the animation was "aged" I saw that it looked very good and I watched it and I loved the writing of the show, the characters, and some of the humor actually made me laugh.
The animation is so much better than people want to give it credit for.
I'm glad you enjoyed it. The more Beast Wars Fans the Merrier.
beast wars is not as bad as people say and it still holds up today
I saw beast wars after years of thinking it was horrible. However when I saw it instantly became my second favorite transformers show.
P.S. I first watched it on your recommendation.
It’s not that I don’t like Beast Wars, it’s just that it never really stood out to me. Although knowing what I do now about the show I think I’m going to give it a try. P.S. thanks for your reply
1:21 I have a pretty bad headache rn. This bit made me laugh so hard. Definitely made my day better. 👍
I am so proud to hear that. That's my favorite moment of the episode and one of my favorite things I've done in a while.
A review of a Beast Wars character on my birthday?
Yes! I was on the fence about getting Tigerhawk but after watching reviews and seeing all the different angles and articulation, I think I'm going to finally pick him alongside dragon Megatron to recreate their iconic fight. I already have JiangXing's Winged Dragon, which is a thing of beauty,but there's no Tigerhawk yet to match him in terms of size so these Legacy offerings will do for now.
I'm a 90s kid that grew up on Beast Wars. It was my G1 and to this date when I think of Transformers I think more of Maximals and Predacons than Autobots or Decepticons. Never seen the original G1 from start to end, only a few clips here and there and maybe a couple of complete episodes. I saw the 1986 movie in 2006. Maybe I should actually sit down and watch G1 to see what I think of it one of these days.
As for Beast Wars aging, yeah, it's definitely aged, especially the 1st season but I think the two subsequent seasons looked better.
Think tracks alt mode would be fitting for silverbolt.
It would make some sense yes.
The culmination of a dead tiger and falcon. I'm honestly impressed with how good he is as I just picked him up yesterday.
That's just it, I think he's fantastic
If Beast Wars was redone shot for shot with modern tech it would blow peoples minds. That being said it is and always will be my favorite TF series
I would love to see it redone with modern graphics, but it's hard to say that it would get the love the original got. Like do you really see them paying the faces the same level of attention.
It's so perfect that there's a video on Beast Wars Jesus posted on Easter.
Now all we need is more Legacy updates of Transmetal and Transmetal 2 characters. Especially a transmetal Rattrap that has a backpack that ACTUALLY ROTATES!!!!
I watched Beast Wars last year, after the second episode, I got used and forgot the graphics being badly rendered.
6:12 kinda like how Tigerhawk and Silverbolt got similar builts, being a quadruped with bird wings but their transformation and engineering couldn't be more far apart though it's due to their size differences with Silverbolt being smaller
He and rampage’s defeat were the only parts of the beast wars final i wasn’t spoiled on.
I was spoiled on rhinox making the final blow, megatron’s dragon form. Dinobot’s honor coming back. Everything
2:56 Before I listened in on the Transformer community bubble, I was a kid who had my parents’ Netflix, and I stumbled across Beast Wars. I didn’t have any refined taste, but I really did like the show as a young kid. If there’s anything I found ugly, it was probably some of the Transmetal upgrades. Some characters I didn’t mind, like Megatron and Rattrap, some I didn’t find as cool like Cheetor and especially Optimus. Tarantulas I forgot, but he’s cool. I definitely think the new characters that started out as Transmetals were fine, and the T2 redesigns were definitely way more favorable to me.
Wait, so what characters didn't you like as Transmetals, cause you like listed all the TM characters as at worst ones that didn't bother you.
@@PerspectiveEnd yeah, i didn’t like the transmetal 1 designs back then, even now some of them I don’t, but I did and still do view the Transmetal 2 designs more favorably
I found one at target on friday and immediately took it. I haven't transformed it yet , still admiring its robot mode. My only thing with it are the hands look kind of small. Then I thought about it and now tell myself they got Airazor's hands in the fusing.
Thanks for the happy birthday! (I am silverware325) I coincidentally got this Tigerhawk for my birthday.
I just got this figure today and holy shit you were right. You say a lot of stuff I don't agree with but you still say those things in a way I find entertaining, but my god you were not lying with this video. I'm going to go watch every beast wars show now
I'm proud to hear all of that. I expect you will love it.
Hello to answer the question in the video I did actually watch the beast wars TV show because I was bored and said hey can't be that bad and you know what it's pretty dang good [favorite character dinobot ] so anyway there you have it and happy Easter 🐇
Beast Wars is beautiful. It is the chrome finish of Transformers shows.
Its beautiful and i think the sliverbolt is a retool of this thing
14:00 What everyone else telling to do at the end of this videos?
Great vid
Wasn't sold on him when he got announced but honestly he looks way better then I expected. Plus I just started collecting beast wars so that might help my perception of this guy.
I'm sure that having a collection he fits helps.
I don't know how ya feel about upgrade/filler kits but there's one available for this. It fills in the wings and other areas. I got it and it turned this figure from great to outstanding.
Thr vendors more likely forgot Tigerhawk existed by vitue of being in a tiny number of episodes at the very end of the series. Hell, I only remember him because when i watched Beast Wars through about 5-6 years ago I was personally not impressed by him (I didn't hate him, but i just didn't think he was all that cool).
I'm glad he's so on point though. I'm always glad when a fan gets tthe designs they love.
It good you get use to it
Indeed, you do, and even then there's not much you NEED to get used to.
I really hope the ‘Leader Thundertron’ coming out in the Star Raiders line is a repaint of this guy instead of the Voyager with more stuff.
Wow our experiences with this one is night and day. Mine broke within a week and you are head over heals for this thing.
Beast awars isn't ugly... just old. Keep in mind that Beast Wars was one of first full CGI shows. Image it with modern animation.
Trans metal designs:
@@doog462they weren’t that bad
Epic review PerspectiveEnd!! These days it's rare to find a Transformers figure that has more strengths then weaknesses. It's fantastic that Tigerhawk is one of those rare gems that not only is a great Transformers figure, but has also started off the Legacy United line really strong. lol Keep on being amazing.
Just got all the kingdom beast wars characters, so I decided to watch the show. It’s has story building like TFprime before TFprime, funny random episodes with episodes that build up the characters. Even the sequel series (though a lil ugly) still had a good buildup to me.
Glad you liked Beast Machines more than I do, but yes Beast Wars is soooo good. They handle mysteries so well, the characters are ultra endearing, and they got a really great Main Villain with that version of Megatron.
This maw the most positive review of this toy I have ever seen and you have convinced me to maybe getting it sometime
I think you will love it.
Man, I'm jealous. This guy sold out everywhere immediately, so I might not get my hands on him for a long time.
I had to find him randomly in a store.
1:22 is why I am a subscriber of this channel 😂
And I am proud to bring you that kind of comedy.
Happy Easter fellow nerds
Thank you so much for getting me into beast wars
I am beyond proud to have done so.
Hi, I was wondering if you could tell me what the blue material you use for a background is. I noticed Robo seems to have a similar setup.
It's just a blue plastic sheet that comes with the lightbox I use. What do you mean Robo seems to have a similar set up?
@@PerspectiveEnd Robo's background is bent towards him from a vertical to horizontal orientation.
Thanks for that though, I was under the impression it was cardboard or fabric. Didn't think of plastic!
For your question, I watched Beast Wars not because of the hate (that would be energon) but because you and many others kept recommending it. I just never had a way to watch it till during the pandemic where I had a lot of time on my hands and it was to lead up to the Netflix seires for Kingdom. I'm really glad I finally got around to watching it! Beast Wars deserves more love!
I just picked up Tigerhawk today and my GOD he’s such a good figure!
Definitely my favourite of Legacy United so far!
When i first saw this figure announced, i promised myself not to watch any tutorials on how to transform it, and when i finally got it in hand, that transformation actively changed my philosophy, and now i absolutely avoid transformation tutorials like the plague in hopes ill find a high of figuring out how to transform something as good as this again
Exactly! This is why I don't tell people how to do this stuff. Figuring it out is so much fun!
@@PerspectiveEnd genuinely thank you for doing that, im now avoiding the transformations of sandstorm because that helicopter mode looks like witchcraft to me despite the backpack and i cant wait to figure out how that works
I've unfortunately had some bad luck with distribution regarding the beast wars figures (my store has been all sandstorms and buzzsaws for the past two years)
so i doubt i'll be seeing this boy anytime soon
but if by some stroke of luck i do then i'm definitely picking him up because holy shit is this a thing of beauty
6:54 “kisses”
Kisses?
@@PerspectiveEnd ok that's more little bit more dark humor
@@PerspectiveEndI forgot why I commented that it’s been a while
I liked this figure, but honestly forgot it existed hahaha. I do get sick of people punching down on beastwars, It added so much to the fiction and saved the franchise as a whole.
They should appreciate it on that level alone, like no beast wars No Sparks, but noooo.
I don't know how you can forget this ostentatious thing though.
I haven’t seen beast wars but i have seen small clips here and there
After a few minutes the look doesn’t bother me and the things they manage to pull off kinda impresses me, definitely plan to watch it
I was going to say that you don´t need to keep the arm unpegged to give the head mobiity in beast mode, but then you pointed at the rotation and shat me up. But, I´ll say that you can rotate the forelegs at the hip, rotate the feet, and then you get the forelegs to have all the crouching you want for the about to pounce poses you want. I know it´s not show accurate, but still.
Also, there´s already an upgrade kit for this guy. Mostly a gap filler, and mostly for those amazing wings.
Anyway, great video as usual!
1:20 through 1:36 - Well I'm sold on this figure XDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXD
I'm glad so many people pegged taht as the stand out moment of the video.
I'm stoked to see a Razorclaw recolor out of it (it is bound to happen, just wait and see) but I am also wondering if it will include the falcon mask for the figure. it was most likely planned for this figure since it has an unused slot on the tiger forehead and matching unused storage slot under the tail feathers but they decided to go with the animation accuracy over the toy accuracy instead.
Hey man, I feel like it's been a long time since you last commented?
Oh man I didn't even think of repaints. And this is one of those that's so good, I would totally grab a repaint. I hope if they do they continue with the stuff like the new heads. So yeah give him the falcon mask.
@@PerspectiveEnd I think I have commented on one of your recent videos? Not sure if I have?
But yes, a Razorclaw recolor would be fantastic to see. He is just Tigerhawk but corrupted according to the Universe lore.
To be fair I might have missed it, I've not been able to keep up with all the comments I get.
After I watched Beast Wars my mind was blown when it comes to what you can do with animation. I won't describe any particular scene because y'know, spoilers, but the way the characters move and how they were able to apply squash and stretch were genuinely amazing, especially when you consider how complex the models were for the time. If dated rendering software is the only reason you're calling it ugly, then to be honest you weren't good enough for Waspinator anyways.
12 seconds in and I agree 100%. This guy is awesome. Hope that 86 Swoop is also fantastic though he seems to be a bit smaller than the others (not by much, thankfully, not to mention it's cartoon accurate).
EDIT: I think this guy shows why the texturing in the show makes the designs appear ugly. The updated texturing makes this design look amazing, yet the show's texturing made him look cheap, annoying when the other later Beast Wars characters (hell, just several of the other Beast Wars characters in general) look great regardless of the textures.
When will you make a video about the reveals
Soon was the plan.
