I consider this this figure to be one of the prettiest in my collection. Gold red and black is such an underutilised colour scheme. Loads of the Transmetal lads had stunning colour schemes. Terrorsaur and Airazor come to mind.
I have this guy. I found him in a buried bag from university days several years later and I have absolutely no recollection at all of actually buying him, especially since I wasn't collecting Transformers at university.
Nah, it's not the age. I've had one of these since I was a kid, and I have many fond memories of getting increasingly angry that the little bastard refused to stand up straight or stay in one piece.
Y'know, when I came home from work and from the pub after that, I was feeling like the biggest piece of human garbage imaginable. Then I saw you'd made a new video and... well you and Snipe are really some of the only things that keep me going in this hell of a world.
I love how the jet mode is a reference to him being possessed by Starscream, and I've seen pictures of the wasp legs arranged to look like Starscream's iconic Null Rays in both robot and jet mode Now if there was a repaint in Starscream colors, and if it was remade with modern design input (like some third party developers) I'd be so happy
Glad he brought you joy, Bought from a con just as they were going cheep and Nabbed as I thought I'd never get the chance at another version of BuzzBoy for the sum of £4. TF Pricing is wild.
I had one of these back in the day, my dad had to glue the wings back together quite a few times and I think even melted some thing wire into them to make the repair a bit stronger
Wish they would re-release this guy and the yellow recolour Buzz Saw color scheme too. They would make a perfect WARUDER ARMY Troops for my Diaclone Transformers to Fight. I would buy like twenty of them.
You could say that the jet mode is basically there way of saying he’s the Starscream in the group in a way. Plus Waspinator did get possessed by Starscream in the show.

Glad to see a return to Ford Cortina based violence.
A relic of a more civilised time...
Now I want to hear the Waspinator impersonation 😛
Me too. Even though I know it’s going to be terrible
If you need something waspinated, he's the guy to call.
Who you gonna call? Wasp busters!
I remembered having this toy as a kid, along with mostly insect predacons.

I remember always wanting one of these as a kid, but they were long out-of-production when I was little

Always been enchanted by the design, though.

Hope things improve for you!
We're rooting for you dude, hope you do well :)
What a deco! From an era of transformers when I was not looking at them. Great video and thanks for making me want him :/

I really need to see a comparison between the two using your Ford Cortina hypothesis.

Fun fact, the Beast Wars game would use his color scheme and jet mode as a point to say that Starscream is still influencing him. Which is neat

Awww I wanted to hear the waspinator impression
you can tighten up those ball joints through a variety of methods if you want a more imposing wasp

I didn't know you did non-warhammer stuff, wib. Neat
Really hope we'll get a movie version of triple-changer Transmetal Waspinator if ROTB is ever gonna include Waspinator 🤔
Nay! I say thee *Nay!* we humbly request upon thee, give unto us the Waspinator Impression!!
One of the guys I regret losing the most after a house fire
AHHHH BESST WARS! good video
Like you and very normal reporting, Sir!
Pity Waspinator never assumed this form in the original TV series.
Every transmetal-vehicle-mode is stupid. But i still love them. They are the good kind of stupid =)
@Azurious - like hoverboarding Optimus or roller skating Megatron. 😉
Hoverboard monkey = good monkey
Waspinator jet mode inspired by Starscream
Nah... I would let you if you thought it was fun. I would reserve rights to silently judge though.
please dont yeet wazzzpintor at a cortina, ford gang
Wwwaspinator get coolest toy, yet Waspinator no get transmetal in shooow!
Why couldn’t Waspinator have been a Transmetal on the show?
Sploot.
Do it you coward! (Love you really (But do it!))
Thumbs down for lack of Waspinator impression. You got my hopes up, man!!
