C'mon man, you can't tease my kids with this link to buy them and when I go to order they are sold out 🤦♂️ lol...Any idea when they will be back in stock?
@@WheeledHamster engineering like the accurate measurements of the pieces going in it together to show this awesome masterpiece like it's pulled out from the movie.
Revenge of the Fallen may have not had the best dialogue but God damn did they do an amazing job with the redesigns for the transformers we all know and love. Jetfire was always one of the coolest transformers that people never really talked about and seeing him transform with Optimus Prime was amazing to see.
The love of the original 80s series went into the engineering here, you can feel it. the g1 intricacies that (*most*) of the toys had was exceptional. what happens on screen is not a simple thing to translate into reality - which makes this combiner that much more respectable! kudos to the design team and Thanks Norm for an AMAZING shoot here!
The icing on the cake of this video is the timelapse at the end, and watching Jetfire just sort of dwindle away! While watching this, I kept thinking of the scene in the movie, so seeing Jetfire get smaller and smaller and just sort of... fall over... was very analogous
Michael Bay's Transformers get a lot of hate largely for it's story/writing and "action that is hard to tell who is who". But you have to admit, he brought some amazing redesigns for the Autobots and Decepticons. Characters such as Ironhide and Sideswipe were completely different from their G1 designs but it worked for the betteri And those action/fight scenes were worthy of a blockbuster movie. They were all original, unique, and "explosive". Also, the CGI and VFX basically told the film industry "we can create complex CGI for big blockbuster movies. There's no need to be afraid of doing it. We've taken the risks and it's proven it can be done." Lastly, I want to mention how the soundtrack by Steve Jablonsky were beautiful. It seriously creates a lot of hype, emotion, and thrill.
I bought the Optimus prime figure and the figure itself is so amazing. For me this is the most detailed and accurate in an 11 inches plus height figure. I would rate the figure 10/10 and I might buy another one to keep as it is inside the box.
Great transformers tv cartoon show and film this my favourite optimus prime and bumblebee are awesome hero's thanks sir for sharing this wonderful video.
"Me boy, that's not a toy!! It's a piece of art! " my grandpa would say to me. But, he was speaking of his '63 Corvette, split window. Thank you Norm, you have a very nice "toy".😂
I literally just put my 8 year old to bed after watching the first 2 transformers films for the first time with him and this pops up 👍. Norm is there a video of your collection?
If you get the studio series toys of these characters, along with the DNA Designs upgrade kit to replace some of Jetfire’s more ungainly parts, you can replicate this for much cheaper, PLUS they transform on their own. However this is absolutely awesome and stands up on it’s own merit.
You should take a look at some third party transformable figures; some manage to have the detail of a ThreeZero whilst also being totally transformable!
There's something oddly pleasing about the cutting mat backdrop presentation for the "build" portion of the video. Brings to mind one of those obscure, unassuming Japanese Gunpla channels where some guy just pulls off the most batshit brilliant scratchbuilding you've ever seen like it's nothing.
Jetfire “My father was a wheel, the first wheel! Do you know what he transformed into?” “No…” “Nothing! But he did so with honor!” So his father is one of the most useful Transformers in history. Now we have cars, bicycles, wagons, dollies and airplanes! First of all, wheels can get you from place to place.
Great video. I will be getting threezero voltron. It can transform/combine. It has the lion leg covers like blitzway. It has more articulation than SOC Voltron. Can't wait.
I have their Bee and a Optimus from Bee and my god they are hands down the best figures I have owned. The design details, articulation work the way three zero always push their limits and designs to achieve more than most other companies. Their business ethos shames the likes of hot toys who just pump it out with little to no innovation apparent.
The Blitzwing and Soundwave would def complete your collection ;) Of the four I would say I like the Soundwave the most (even though Optimus is my favorite character), absolutely amazing; bulky and intimidating (and the included transforming Ravage is a huge bonus) he somehow just evokes nostalgia! And I agree, Threezero give you a LOT for your money and even a warranty. And these things are solid, you know they won't deteriorate over time.
All that care and talent and creative ingenuity and attention to detail, put into statuettes of Bayformers. Impressive work by ThreeZero, but I'm clearly not their target market.
These made me angry as a kid because I couldn’t complete them. I will never have the patience for these. I will never do this. I am completely okay with that. Good job dude😎
@@tested would love to see how they get from reference art to those injection molds. 3D modeling, clay maquettes? What's the process? That level of detail is just fascinating and speaks to some serious artistic focus.
I’m beginning to think those chinese third party dishing out unlicensed, yet impressive mecha figures hire people like this fellow to design their toys.
Pretty Impressive. However I found it interesting that you said that the "physics" don't really make it possible for them to transform into "vehicles". I say interesting because Hasbro didn't seem to have a problem doing that and that was back in the 80s. You'd think with all the tools we have today that this company could have managed that as well.
The issue is more the Physics of the Designs as Shown in the Movies, The parts simply can't be manipulated and connected the way they are in the CG, (I can't find the reference, but i believe they even do some part scaling, shrinking/growing during the transformation process.) So it's not that they can't make toys that can transform from those robots to vehicles, It's more that they can't make them so so while maintaining the same detailed, screen matching aesthetic.
The G1 toys and designs were far, far less complex than these designs, and far less complex than modern renditions of G1 designs. The movie leader class Optimus Prime toy that was released in 2009 was a masterpiece of transforming toy engineering, but Jetfire had to fit a robot into the incredibly thin SR-71 plane. It's basically impossible without CG magic or making a toy that is incredibly impractical.
Hey! Great work! Can you please let me known how much leg space jetfire optimus prime holds, I'm making a platform for that, wanna know the dimensions. I have optimus, jetfire is pre ordered. So want to know the space in centimetres/inches that jetfire optimus use up.
Just wondering have I purchased a fake one from taobao, the jetpower Optimus Prime I got, (jetfire from tabo, optimus prime from local retail) I never be able to finished the combination since piece just kept falling... (I offered the price for jetpower is somewhere between the retailer-to-market price)
I have the original ldr class of these 2 and they are msv when combined they look amazing but this is on a different lvl mine cost 70$ ea when they were new im curious wtf this beast costs

Cool site! Too bad they're sold out of so much stock. Hopefully they'll restock at some point in the near future.

Wow. The engineering that must have went into making those be able to interconnect is astounding. So amazing looking.
Lol or u simply don't understand because it's not even impressive let alone astounding...
It doesn't transform, what engineering.
@@WheeledHamster engineering like the accurate measurements of the pieces going in it together to show this awesome masterpiece like it's pulled out from the movie.
Third party transformers toys are much better that this. Check out BMB Optimus prime, its full of details and can also transform into truck mode.
the replies to this comment suck idk why people insist on being so bitter
The Bayformers designs are amazing, Josh Nizzi really outdid himself bringing the Transformers concept to life perfectly
Nizzi just did few of them
My favorite is Last Knight Megatron
@@fn_flashy9101 Aye!
Ehhh, not really. To each their own, I suppose, but the Bayverse Transformers designs are was too complicated and busy, especially their faces.
@@Agentcoolguy1 yes because there aliens now a blocky ass dull human looking as face.
Jet Optimus has always been an epic combination.
Revenge of the Fallen may have not had the best dialogue but God damn did they do an amazing job with the redesigns for the transformers we all know and love. Jetfire was always one of the coolest transformers that people never really talked about and seeing him transform with Optimus Prime was amazing to see.
The forest battle was the best part of the entire movie and easily one of the best scenes in Transformers history.

The movies after the first 2 started going down pretty fast, but I have to say I have a lot of nostalgia for them so seeing this makes me happy!
After the first two?
@@tappajavittu transformers 1 and revenge of the fallen
Nah
I’d say after 3. I personally loved DoTM.
@@TheKing-dm3br same, i liked the first three. The ones after just didn't draw me in. Same with the Pirates of the Caribbean movies
We need more transformers content on Tested!
oh man just watching you build this, my inner child is screaming BUY ONE NOW haha
the fact that if u notice, optimus used jetfire's legs as turbos to fly is kinda cursed
ududueieieieieieieie
How do they even design this toys. Mind blowing 😱
Gives me a headache just thinking of the engineering involved to achieve this! Great stuff.
Transformers became a meme but the CGI and the actual transformations, action scenes and the sound effects were always insane.
I would have to buy 2 sets.....keeping Optimus and Jetfire complete and then the Optimus Upgraded version
This video deseres 4K... the detail on these models are insane

Thank you Norm, you have a very nice "toy".😂
I feel like Norman’s mind would just be blown if he sees what third party is doing
I still have my Soundwave Transformer/Casette Player from the 80s
Norman, this thing is INSANE (but in the coolest way)!!
I literally just put my 8 year old to bed after watching the first 2 transformers films for the first time with him and this pops up 👍. Norm is there a video of your collection?
This is GLORIOUS!!!
the presence of this thing in the room would be like the feeling of having the principle walk up to you and looking you in the eyes
That figure is really amazing.
Well done this is so bad ass… easily one the best scenes of the series. Optimus take my parts…
As action figures da Tree zero são simplesmente espetaculares,,esse upgrade q vc fez no.Optimus Prime ficou sensacional amigo,,amei 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻🤩
I hope one day DLC finds a way to make these guys convertible.
no way. it is really amazing
Been fighting the urge to buy Jetfire for my Prime.
Do it! 😇

Can't wait till this guy arrives 😁❤️ thanks for the showcase
Jet Prime is amazing but Optimus with his trailer is badass, love the way he looks in Dark of the Moon.
great job! only the knee parts are actually up side down
This is awesome. I prefer to get transformable figures but this is awesome. Imagine losing a piece.
Good choice for a review. Three zero puts out absolutely amazing stuff👍
Transformers is LIFE!
You should take a look at some third party transformable figures; some manage to have the detail of a ThreeZero whilst also being totally transformable!

ThreeZero does some nice work
My sister recently bought the 3 figures from dorohedoro.
It's amazing, it's a great piece
So these toys can't transform anymore... but they CAN transform anyway. Fucking amazing !!
Don’t let the kids in to that room!!! 🤯🤯🤯
I wish I could give this more likes
Imagine how dark this would be as a Toy Story movie. Disassembling a toy to put onto another toy lol. It’s Sid from Toy Story 1 all over again.
Wow thats amazing! I want one
"Optimus, Take my parts and you'll have a power..you've never known...Fullfill your destiny" - Jetfire
How can a human possibly even engineer this complex design??
Jetfire “My father was a wheel, the first wheel! Do you know what he transformed into?”
“No…”
“Nothing! But he did so with honor!”
So his father is one of the most useful Transformers in history. Now we have cars, bicycles, wagons, dollies and airplanes! First of all, wheels can get you from place to place.
WOww, those are amazing..
Revenge of the fallen will always be my favorite
Great video.
I will be getting threezero voltron.
It can transform/combine.
It has the lion leg covers like blitzway.
It has more articulation than SOC Voltron.
Can't wait.
Imagine a stop motion with these
Hated the movie, but that's an awesome model!
Happy Birthday Adam.
It will take me a month to finish that n this guy finish it in less than a day.
I have their Bee and a Optimus from Bee and my god they are hands down the best figures I have owned.

I obsessed with Transformers 🤣
This is beautiful!!!!
I'm subscribing!!!
Ok, but why did I think he was going to build a model completely from scratch?
*metal transformer parts kinetically transforming while simotaniously buffing optimus prime* optimus prime - "LeTs rOll😈"
Looks like a Gundam! Well done!
Wow keren banget transformersnya🎉🎉❤❤
Tener esto en mi vitrina seria demasiado increible
I love the figure I finally got jetfire last night only problem is the outside thigh part don’t wanna stay on the tire 😭
That's insane!
Have you seen the real Optimus Prime model that really transforms on it's own?
i think they should transform but still cool
All that care and talent and creative ingenuity and attention to detail, put into statuettes of Bayformers.
Impressive work by ThreeZero, but I'm clearly not their target market.
These made me angry as a kid because I couldn’t complete them. I will never have the patience for these. I will never do this. I am completely okay with that. Good job dude😎
They don’t transform dude, just this set combines the rest are just normal figures.
Byformers Figure models are the most american gundam influence
Norm, have you all ever endeavored to tour the factory for these and see the process from start to finish?
i would love to, just to see injection molding machines at work!
@@tested would love to see how they get from reference art to those injection molds. 3D modeling, clay maquettes? What's the process? That level of detail is just fascinating and speaks to some serious artistic focus.
Hey @Tested. How come Norms podcast has disappeared?
July 12 and 13th is also Prime day
The original jet fire was a red and white f14 tomcat my first ever transormer
Just think, the Bayformer movies are old enough to be someone's Generation 1 cartoon now...anyone else feel hella old?
I’m beginning to think those chinese third party dishing out unlicensed, yet impressive mecha figures hire people like this fellow to design their toys.

With those weapons Optimus Prime can beat Ironman
Cool video
looks cool but it's such a busy design.

Looks cool, 2 hours is very long

Wow. Just wow.
How do you take a circle shot that it’s so steady? Can you show us?
I didn’t like how they made Jetfire a gold geezer
Oh wow blowing my mind
the next Gmod nextbot
