Because G1 Diehards are suckers for buying the same figure twice because the redecot/retool appeared for 5 seconds in their favorite film. Why else did we get 4 CONCEPT FIGURES, only one ACTUALLY being based off of concept art... yet only got ONE SINGLE BAYVERSE CHARACTER in Mohawk from TLK? It's because nomatter how many times it gets rehashed, people will buy G1 Characters nomatter what, which then makes Hasbro become complacent, which then makes 95% of the franchise G1, but with slight stylization. (Sorry for venting, I'm just genuinely upset we got 1 stinking Bayverse character when Commander Class MAGMATRON exists, while we STILL don't have a Leader/Commander Class DOTM Devcon.)
my favorite of 2024 is easily Deluxe G1 Toy Optimus Prime, it's such a cool toy, and not just because it's a budget Missing Link figure. it's purely fun, and i also have it as a defacto tribute to a friend of my dad who sadly passed away a few years ago, he gifted me a G1 Optimus ko for christmas one year, which i don't have anymore sadly, so the Legacy G1 toy Optimus hits hard for me
Sandstorm ended up not just being my toy of the year it might just be my favourite transformer toy period. The transformation is satofying as hell, i love how despite its size the backpack is inteligently engineered to both mimick the og toy and make the other forms the best they can be, all while not heavily compromising its posability, the winch and cage are a fun addition, his tiny handcanon gun is hilarious. I know some people had really bad times with loose chest panels and that makes me sad cause a non QC one is a beautiful time. Big reccomend
Hey Mr dumb nice video love how you ranked the toys I hope one day we get some good aotp toys from cartoons like prime armada beast wars beast machines rescue bots and esetra but yeah love this vid man
Genuinely baffled how someone is involved enough to watch tf UA-cam but somehow checked out entirely so much that they don’t know a whole figure exists (in reference to the chatter about Tasmania Kid)
I’m glad I’m not the only one who was disappointed by Animated Bee’s robot mode. As an Animated fan who only recently got back into transformers, Bee was cool at first but the longer I’ve had him the more issues I’ve found. The leg design and the clear plastic cab are especially egregious, as they feel like changes just for the sake of changing things instead of doing a proper version of the character. It’s not as bad as Legacy Prowl (who is an abomination imo just from an aesthetic standpoint), but nowhere near as good as how Animated Optimus turned out.
It’s weird because for me, I love Legacy Animated Prowl, as that Prowl is my favorite Prowl design, but most of my collection is G1, so having the animated design with a more G1 aesthetic was perfect to me. (Though for people who wanted just an updated Animated Prowl, completely understand the hate) But yeah, if I’m honest I never would’ve bought SS86 Bee, if Legacy Animated Bee had legs that were actually accurate to Animated, and I really wish he could actually have his Stingers on one hand, I don’t like they prioritized his combined stingers.
@@gagedsmyeah, the stingers and the peg hands are another thing I don’t really like. I’d have preferred just two smaller whole stingers on straight or adjustable angles than the two halves that only really work together in one specific pose.
I love legacy prowl. Animated has by far the best prowl design, so to have a versatile version of that character design that goes with everything else as my definitive prowl is rad as hell.
Siege Soundwave already did that lmao, if you open the bottom flap of the box (I don't think the Legacy re-release did this) and shine a blacklight it shows a secret alt-mode that's his lamp mode
Personally I really liked Slipstream, though with some caveats. I think she's a better version of the mold than Windblade, even if Slipstream doesn't look like she did in Cyberverse. Windblade's biggest issue is her face having those puppet mouth lines. They're too wide and too deep. Slipstream's new head is an improvement there. But the REAL reason she looks the way she does is because Legacy Slipstream is based on the Takara Legends Slipstream from the 2010s that was a retool of Generations Windblade. My only complaint is that she should have gotten new shoulders with ports on the sides to allow her Null Rays to plug into them. But I can live with them being under her forearms. I might make some 3D printed add-ons to have them fit better.
Legacy Vector Prime is overhated and definitely worth getting. He is inaccurate, but he’s just a fun figure to mess with. He’s an already cool mold with a sword and a cape. Cybertron in general are good this year. Starscream, Hot Shot, and Cannonball were great too, and they have Cyber Keys, so they’re definitely worth getting
I don't HATE Vector Prime but I still have my original so it didn't seem as worthwhile to me. It does look fun though, Jhiaxus certainly is. My only complaint is that VP's chest is just on the bottom of his nosecone and you're expected to pretend it's not there.
1... There was only 1 BAYVERSE CHARACTER THIS ENTIRE YEAR!!! And while Mohawk actually is a great Core Class, he shouldn't be THE ONLY BAYVERSE CHARACTER in the entirety of 2024!!!
You DID NOT just disrespect Cheetor like that
But the face tho 🥲
WE WILL NOT TAKE THIS SLANDER!!!!!
@@Kingmc974 that's what his face is supposed to look like! Mostly.
Cheetors studio series is amazing but the core class is ugly
Cheetor is trash don’t even we all know it’s a rip off bumble bee
TF1 reawakened my love of these toys, so I actually missed most of these! Thanks for putting this together!
@sierrajohnson717 true after I went on Tubi and found the g1 show and beast wars(transformers one needs its sequel)
I didn’t realize there were dead decos of the 86 cast. Why is that so funny?
Probably because they made toys based on the scenes that discontinued the original toys.
Because G1 Diehards are suckers for buying the same figure twice because the redecot/retool appeared for 5 seconds in their favorite film.

I haven't been rolled on Perspective End's wheel yet, but I am the poor schmuck who's favorite of 2024 is quake
it's ok we quake defenders gotta stick together

Merry Christmas !
Merry Christmas jake
Hey Mr dumb nice video love how you ranked the toys I hope one day we get some good aotp toys from cartoons like prime armada beast wars beast machines rescue bots and esetra but yeah love this vid man
Intro is correct, new transformers fan here because of tranformers one. And im loving animated 2008 so far.
Merry Primas Mr. Jake
Animated Motormaster is probably my favorite figure this year.
Overcharge is already my favorite figure of next year.
Tasmanian kid is definitely in the good tier.
Genuinely baffled how someone is involved enough to watch tf UA-cam but somehow checked out entirely so much that they don’t know a whole figure exists (in reference to the chatter about Tasmania Kid)
Ferak is awesome, you are severely misguided 😂
100% Amen
It's almost like it's subjective and people have different opinions or something.
@@OtakuUnitedStudio dumbjake doesn’t know what he’s talking about

I feel like there's no way they're gonna do a new mold for the 86 soundwave idk what to tell yall 😭
It's just going to be another reissue.
Is there any way to make this a public list so we could do our own and share it with you on?
Best…SS 86 OP
Quake did not deserve to be sent to the lowest pits of hell
Quake feels so good in hand he might be slightly boring looking but I like him as a random Decepticon soldier.
How DARE you SLANDER Ferak, currently the BEST figure of the year!
Do better Dumbjake
Eh.
1:03:10 never knew he can store his ion blaster until i watched this vid😭😭😭
In my humble opinion anything Origin is top tier. It always kills. Origin Soundwave when?
Origin Soundwave would push the designers to their engineering limits
Boy have I got news for you
Siege Soundwave already did that lmao, if you open the bottom flap of the box (I don't think the Legacy re-release did this) and shine a blacklight it shows a secret alt-mode that's his lamp mode
@@qtarocujoh Yeah and that secret alt mode is NOT show accurate at all lol
@QuintonRe2s The tape deck version gets closer but still isn't quite right.

Springer has a hammer because he was a Wrecker in the comics. It was Rack'n'Ruin's before they died.
While I didn't get alot this year, my favorite is by far chase due to my bias lol
Tigerhawk is a fusion of Airazor and Tigertron
Airazor and TIGAtron.
“Transformers should make a FNAF fan universe” oh my god are we 9 years old lmao

Don’t do bee like that his robot mode is fine
His head is too small and he's too transparent
Gears was my fav
You missed legacy united galvatron the small one
No way crumb cake released tier list. I hope cheetor is respected..!!
1... There was only 1 BAYVERSE CHARACTER THIS ENTIRE YEAR!!! And while Mohawk actually is a great Core Class, he shouldn't be THE ONLY BAYVERSE CHARACTER in the entirety of 2024!!!
Shard and Bumblebee deserve best and I will die on this hill
Bumblebee at least should be near the top of Good
My favorite. Is jada toys remote control optimus prime
Bro u cannot disrespect energon megatron like that
Apple or coconut
HOW DARE YOU DISRESPECT RESCUE BOTs LIKE THAT
finn the dog and jake the human!!
It was all fine till you mentioned Leader Class Megatron. There is no way that Legacy United Wheeljack and SS86 Bumblebee are better...😭🙏
You're right... I think they're WAY better😂
