Glad I'm not the only one who was pumped for this guy, and satisfied when he finally arrived. That said I always loved the G1 pacifist take on him so I almost always stash his guns on his back in 'bot mode
Love the montage at the start. Mine arrives on Monday, 3 weeks ahead of schedule thanks to Amazon. Wish they would redo Blitzwing and give us G1 versions of Astrotrain, Octane and Broadside.
Chef...you cooked this review well as usual!!! I just got him in today and I have the Hasbro T30 Sandstorm on deck as well. You're right T30 Sandstorm was no slouch either.
I wished my preorder was delayed because I just saw him at retail for sale at $35 along with other Leaders - Tigerhawk, RotB Optimus Primal, Bumblebee movie Megatron, BW TM2 Megatron, and Skyquake 😞. Oh well, you just never know when they go on sale. But I did get BW TM2 Megatron on sale, so it wasn't a total loss.
@@Sayerservante whaaaattt?!!! those are crazy clearance prices man, something that will never happen here in Manila that's alright, at least you secured yourself a copy of this awesome figure...
Geez I share the planet with u please cage landing heli is useless because you can't pull the string. A real heli would give slack to the cord and not land on cage. Cone on guy 😢😂
Outstanding review Chefatron!!! Sandstorm is incredible. Fingers crossed that we get new figures of Broadside and Octane after the upcoming SS86 Springer figure. :D Keep on being amazing.
your 30th Anniversary Sandstorm has a different paint deco than mine. different paint deco version? update: i found it: Hasbro Transformers IDW TG29 Sandstorm Voyager Anime Figure Action Figures Model
I want a maskless version of the Legacy United Sandstorm, I have decided not to buy it until that happens. Sadly it’s probably not anytime soon though.
I had problems getting the cockpit tabbed together at first and my helicopter rotor blades are stiff and won't spin freely and they are pulled up and I don't understand what the problem is causing this.
just transformed this guy to vehicle mode and your tip on making sure the legs were pushed all the way in helped alot! love the vehicle mode, gives a very mad max vibe. thanks for the review!
I'm sure they'll have one for the SS86 line... the faceplate is actually toy accurate I think... because in the cartoon we could see his nose and mouth when he spoke

oh awesome man! did this figure get a lot of hate? I thought most collectors and reviewers loved him...

oh thanks so much man
awesome! I'm sure you'll love it!
yeah, let's hope so
That cage is his and Astrotrain’s picnic basket
hahahahahahaha so true!!!
I think it was Octane his picnic buddy.

I love both vehicle modes, just not a fan of how the botmode looks, though it's faithful to the original toy and cartoon so I can't complain too much!
same bro@ yeah, the G1 nostalgia on this one, won me over

thank you so much my friend 😀 oh I hope we get those guys and a better version of Springer...
You're welcome my friend!! 😎👍
@@chefatrongreat review, are you going to be reviewing Springer leader class?
@@Zangief-i3c thanks so much bro
yeah, when Amazon finally decides to ship it to me, I will... it's taking forever man...
I was almost in on this guy. Glad I waited it’s a pass.
that's alright man, glad I could help you make your decision

yeah, this is the Japanese Takara Tomy version under their Transformers Legends 30th Anniversary line
I heard that the rubber wheels on Beachcomber and Sandstorm aren't actually rubber, but PVC or something? I dunno....
oh really? wow! hasbro still being cheap even if they're looking premium...
Thrilling 30 version is a much better looking toy.
yes, perhaps... as a figure, it really is superior... but the g1 nostalgia with the new one, just won me over
Yes it is, I have it and its even a tad bigger
@@Zangief-i3c awesome!
Looks amazing. Chest piece peg is bummer but nice regardless.
yeah, but if you tab the chest well enough, it will hold... unless you get him into some really crazy chefatron poses LOL

I'm sure a third party company will give us one
I had problems getting the cockpit tabbed together at first and my helicopter rotor blades are stiff and won't spin freely and they are pulled up and I don't understand what the problem is causing this.
hmmm.... I've never had those issues... interesting
Note that his crouch can be pushed in when in Robot mode !
Gives better stability and also better clearance to move the legs.
yeah, I forgot to show that off, thanks for pointing it out!
This is going to be arriving for me in roughly a week alongside Magmatron and i am VERY excited
awesome bro! and great hauls! i skipped magmatron though...
the hands (feel like its giving me the middle finger) and the propellers throw me off completely.
oh sorry to hear that
Hey do you think this would be a good figure for someone starting a collection?
I would usually recommend getting a good optimus prime figure for people starting their transformers collection...
i think we will get a two pack of him in a more cartoon accurate style and a ss86 arcee retool as lifeline
hmmm... that sound's interesting....
How does he scale with Titans return octane
okay I guess...
Yesterday's Voyagers are today's Leaders.
sad but true...
Flying Weener Mobile! lol!
hahahahahahaha o nga no?!
Astrotrain
no Sandstorm
just transformed this guy to vehicle mode and your tip on making sure the legs were pushed all the way in helped alot! love the vehicle mode, gives a very mad max vibe. thanks for the review!
oh awesome! glad I could help man 😀
I'll wait for the new headscuplt of Legacy Sandstorm, rather than the cartoon accurate with faceplate!
I'm sure they'll have one for the SS86 line...
the faceplate is actually toy accurate I think... because in the cartoon we could see his nose and mouth when he spoke
✨🤩😀😁🥳
thanks buddy!
Legacy Sandstorm G1, pure premium, so solid quality i like this.
yeah definitely bro! love this figure!
I like all the modes. The cage is great for posing and displaying.
awesome man! yeah, that's what it's for I guess
Great review sir! Agree with your prediction on the reissue 😂
