![Lp. Последняя Реальность #107 РОДНОЙ ДОМ [Финал] • Майнкрафт](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/IK3QKzKUlHM/mqdefault.jpg)
Razorclaw was my childhood favorite Beast Wars figure. It's kind of ridiculous how over the moon I was for that little crab. I even had him seize control of the Predacons from croc-Megatron for an hour or so.
*THE MAN TERROR APPRECIATES HIS INCLUSION IN THE THUMBNAIL!*
For context, Manterror was known as “The Man Terror” in the first Beast Wars Uprising prose story.
He was always one of my favorite beast, wars toys.
@@THANATOS-PRIME Oh yeah, not arguing with him taking the best of deluxe class for the year.
I really wish we had gotten a reissue of B’Boom from that Walmart retro Beast Wars line 😤
10:57 I would absolutely love a new modern toy of Bonecrusher, his design was so cool in the comics
We’ll end up with him as “Maximal Bighorn” if United not-Snarl has anything to say about it.
@@EternityKingdomsHeadHoncho
The thing is, Beast Wars Snarl and Beast Wars II Tasmania Kid are virtually identical, where as Beast Wars Bonecrusher and Beast Wars II Bighorn have different colours in robot mode (Bonecrusher has white, while Bighorn has red).
Cybershark is my favorite Beast Wars figure overall, so glad to see him on the list
I literally threw my arms up in the air in triumph when my boy Snarl showed up.
He was one I missed. Don't know why. Do have Legacy Tasmania Kid though, so appreciation for the design has grown. For me though Clawjaw was the best scout of the year. A real oddball animal, like Snarl, that has a neat transformation, and the tentacles kinda being wings in robot mode works really well.
I literally just found a Tripredacus in a bin in a collectibles shop last week. He is so awesome. A lot of these others have been on my radar.
I adore Beast Wars II, so seeing my boy Apache/B'Boom so high up is amazing.
15:11 Sentinel Primal.
I will not take debate.
I always saw him as Ultra Magnus.
Bonecrusher and Manterror were my first transformers. They will always have a special place in my heart.
New mold or not, Machine Wars Starscream is amazing and I still want a modern one.
It's why I've been holding off on the Legacy Skyquake/Dreadwing mold. I hope they do one in the MW Starscream colors with Galvatron's canon to homage that one piece of art.
Finally some praise for Cybershark! Best BW Deluxe toy for me.
Airazor was my first BW toy and I loved it from the gimmicks and look the little figure had.
Manterror is definitely underrated, very posable toy for the time and the perfect companion to Cybershark (You could even interpret him as the Joker to Cybershark's Batman).
B'Boom is great all-around, great articulation and look.
Magnaboss and Tripredacus are easy choices but I will always prefer Magnaboss because the combined mode looks better.
The only head-scratcher here is Bonecrusher, he has a good design but the missile gimmick limits his head articulation and doesn't lock his neck. Other than that, solid list and I hope we get updates for all of these toys.
When I think of Magmaboss. I continue to think of BW2 Magmaboss, with Lio Junior, Skywarp and Santon. I know those are 1998 figures, but they was also in BW2 and made a cameo in BW Neo.
My very first beast war toy was Polar Claw on my 5th birthday. I was hooked after, so 1997 is the year for me.
Razor Claw was my first ever Transformer, still one of My favorite Transformers of all time.
I still remember being on a road trip 28 years ago and picking up Jetstorm simply because it looked cool
My Razorclaw is broken at one of the translucent plastic loops holding the crab legs on.
Also, I'm glad you put Bonecrusher higher on this list after putting him surprisingly low on the Beast Wars tier list.
I didn't know about B'Boom, but... wow. I very rarely want to get older toys to actually open, but I want to open that one and play with it! The artillery mode actually looks thought out and not like a throw-in, too.
Early squad reporting in!
B’Boom is a personal favorite. He’d have been great to see on the show.
Such a great year! My top ten:
10. Clawjaw
9. Inferno
8. B'Boom
7. Airazor
6. Bonecrusher
5. Manterror
4. Razorclaw
3. Cybershark
2. Spittor
1. Jetstorm
green and orange are complimentary colors, they go together like peas and carrots!
TJ neglected to mention that the Silverbolt part of Magnaboss suffers from major GPS here in the States. I recommend the Japanese version (although it came out a year later), as the gold plastic parts are regular plastic painted brown in that version.
Apache, Big Horn, and Tasmanian Kid all made it yay! Lio Junior, Santon, and Skywarp are also welcomed dearly ❤. Mantis as the sole Insectron is fitting since he was the leader of their pacifist crew. Now TRIPLEDACUS??? The Jointrons are absolutely welcomed here, those boys are so funny. Gimlet, DJ, and Motorarm are some silly geese. Seeing almost all of BWII make it on here only makes sense. That Toyline is top tier
Snarl is still one of my favorites, due in no small part to the fact that I really like Tasmanian devils.
The og air razor one of my favorite toys of all time
Sweet, my birth year. Thank you, boss!
Idk of anyone who prefers Tonbot to Jetstorm. A red dragonfly looks more like a fire ant than an actual dragonfly. Whereas Jetstorm looks more like a dragonfly with the darker color with bright accents.
I prefer Tonbot
You are aware that there are red and orange dragonflies right? For example there is the red-veined darter or the flame skimmer. Both of these species are fairly common as well in the parts of the world they are located in.
@@makutateridax584 Tonbot looks a tad too much like Inferno for my tastes. To the point it almost makes him redundant if it weren't for the fact he's not a Predacon
This video introduced me to bw razorclaw. I will now buy beast wars razorclaw.
Its weird seeing all these chars from BW2, and finally having watched it know who their repaints are.
Can't wait for Magmatron to be on the 1999 list because Magmatron
I had magnaboss, and yeah ironhide was a mess as a standalone, but hes like 75% of the combined form.
And the head always wanted to untab in the combined form.
Silverbolt to his credit is airazor with bigger wings.
only had 4 of these as a kid Airrazor, cybershark, baboom and manterror wish i had them all but i can't complain to much lol, i really hope we get a new megnaboss and tripredicus some day soon, i mean we got a new magmatron so it's not impossible.
I was hoping that we'd get to see B'boom, Bonecrusher or Jetstorm in the BW Vintage line before it died, those are the 3 new mold figures I still need from the organic era. At least we got Cybershark who had been the 4th before that.
Managed to get Apache and Bighorn pretty cheap (at least compared to ebay) off Mercari via Buyee, so now I just have to track down Jetstorm. Tonbot is an option in a pinch, but I like my bugs to be Predacons, so Jetstorm is the preferred use of that mold for me even though Tonbot does look better.
Finally time for the year I was born
So weird: I remember Magnaboss being in stock back in the day but none of the other figures of this list. Or my mind sucks or they never got released here; probably the first one. T.T
Surprisingly Bboom is one of the few original Beast Wars character I still have. Love the figure and would probably be last bot standing if I had to purge my collection.
Great video
I was just waiting for B'boom to show up,
I would love if Hasbro ever redid the BW combiners with modern engineering, plastic, etc. Even if it was a Haslab two-pack. Really sucks about the GPS for the originals.
My Top Ten for 1997, there actually wasn't enough figures this year to ignore the Basic class like I did for 96. There were a few repaints I had to ignore. And of course this was the year Machine Wars started which were just a bunch of Repaints of Euro G2 toys so it's actually a little slim on brand new molds.
10. Spittor: He's a frog... and I think the Diver version of this mold has a better color scheme. I know he's suppose to be a poison arrow frog but I looked up pictures of the actual frog he's based on and they come in variety of colors and patterns I'm just not seeing any that look like him. Especially the repainted red version with the black tech detailing painted on that definently doesn't look organic. Decent mold just never liked the colors.
9. Manterror: Some how I have a feeling this guy will end up on TJ's list some where too just a question of where he'll be placed.
8. Airazor: Again trying to keep my bias for the show out of it otherwise she would be higher but as a toy I think there are better figures.
7. Razorclaw: The first crab before we got Rampage and I actually kind of like this little crab guy. Side note, I did not even look at the translucent version of this mold. I was looking at the more realistic looking version for my list. It's still a good mold either way just personal preference which color scheme you prefer.
6. Snarl: AKA Tasmania Kid... thanks Legacy for using the Japanese name rather than the American one.
5. Bonecrusher: I always thought the head on this guy looked weird. The face does look a little better in the Beast Wars II cartoon than it does on the actual toy but still a decent looking figure.
4. Cybershark: I never had this toy when it originally released but I did pick up the reissue and other than a loose ball joint where one of his fins keeps popping out every time I barely touch it I love this figure... plus I love sharks so of course he's high on my list.
3. B'Boom: I actually did have this figure when it came out... never liked the weird 3rd mode it has. To be honest I was never even sure what the alternate robot head was for cause I don't remember ever seeing it in the instructions. Apache was the one that really made that a thing in Japan but I was just confused why there was an extra head there. Also because of the tall shoulders and the coloring, I always imagined him as Beast Wars Ultra Magnus. Some how Ultra Mammouth got that role just for the pun but B'Boom actually looks like him.
2. Tripredacus: Technically cheating cause it's 3 figures but I had this set as a kid.
1. Magnaboss: The other combiner set I did not have and always regretted. I meant to get both but could only afford one and went with the other set for reasons I can not remember only to look back and realize... Magnaboss just looks better as a combiner having actual hands and a sword. I don't know what the weapon Tripredacus is holding is suppose to be. By the way I love the fact that their weapons also combine, I don't think any other combiners before this have done that and FoC Bruticus did it years later but it's such a rare thing to engineering for the weapons to combine as well. I really want a modern Magnaboss in the Kingdom style but all we got was Skywarp/Silverbolt from the Airazor mold which doesn't combine with anything. Or at least reissue the original set, maybe with inflation it'd be better to release them individually now days rather than in a box set cause I don't know if I could afford the inflated price unless they're released one a time.
Next year is going to be really hard to narrow down because it's the start of some really good Japanese exclusive molds from Beast Wars II, Fuzors, and Transmetals.
I LOVE BEAST WARS
I miss the beast wars
My 10. 10. MW Optimus Prime 9. MW Megatron. 8. Drillbit 7. Jetstorm 6. MW Soundwave 5 Airrazor. 4.manterror 3. Powerpinch 2. Inferno 1. MW Hubcap
Very odd choices other than the Beast Wars figures, except for Drillbit, which I didn't think anyone liked.
I think Magnaboss is the first toy I've owned that has been on one of these lists
Just wondering, but are you going to re-upload “here’s 10 of 1994’s best transformers toys?”
Yeah, I was wondering what happened to that video.
Early to the late 90s
The only one I didn't own back in the day was #8.
Maybe I missed it in the video, but no Inferno?
Character aside, Inferno is just okay. Nice spring-loaded mandibles, firing missile with said missiles storing/doubling as the ant's rear legs, and the abdomen opening up into a spinning jet is definitely interesting. But that spinning jet is a pain to get to work without something bumping into the panels, (either your hand or the middle ant legs the toy does basically nothing with) and the transformation is basic despite being a Mega class.
But you're certainly free to put him on your own list of best of '97. He's definitely better than Transquito.
@@DetectiveBarricade He was so bad, he shelfwarmed, so bad his Transmetal toy was renamed Scavenger (the toy didn't do any better!).
@@twistedgaming9185 Inferno isn't that bad of a toy, just a giant ant toy wasn't exactly appealing to kids. Didn't help that he was sold as a solid case IIRC.
@@DetectiveBarricade kind of funny to think a giant ant isn't appealing, yet the spiders did just fine to my knowledge. To my knowledge more people dislike spiders than ants.
@@R0-83-RT The spiders were also cheaper than the ant, nor were they a solid case.
To me, Ramhorn is such a bad figure I couldn't put Tripredacus in my top 10 SeaClamp and Cicadacon could have their own spots easily but Ramhorn is Retrax levels of awful.
Creb
Jetstorm was my grail figure when I was 11, since the '97 beast wars deluxes and megas never came to australia. Say what you want about his colour scheme, but it was good enough for Yanmega!
A crying shame Jetstorm and B'Boom weren't part of the Beast Wars reissues a couple years ago. Either their molds were unavailable or the line did so poorly Hasbro canned it before they got to them. Likely the former considering RETRAX of all things did make it into the reissues, and I don't think there was really anyone clamoring for him.
