    Just so you know, there's a LOT more voice clips than were heard here in the review. This is understandable, as they're apparently randomized, so getting to hear all of them wouldn't be practical without a lot of repeats and/or video editing. Mode 2, in particular, is extensive-31 voice clips in all.
    You already figured out the first round of voice clips, and some of the others are just as obvious, but to be complete, here's what's heard in the review...
    Mode 1 (main, 4 lines total)
    "Cybertron senshi, Transform!" / "Autobots, transform!"
    "Transform! Start your engines!"
    Mode 2 (G1 seasons 1 & 2, 31 lines total)
    "Saa, tanomu zo, Roller. Ano futari ga dou natta ga sagurun'da. Ki wo tsukete na." / "Okay, Roller, I'm counting on you. Find out what happened to those two. And be careful."
    "Naani, daijoubu da. Atarashiku soubi shita jidou shuri system ga sadou shite kureta you da na." / "I'm all right. It seems the newly installed auto-repair systems are functioning."
    (Hearty laughter)
    "Lambor ga iru ka! Omae no rocket booster wo kase! Meirei da!" / "There you are, Sideswipe! Lend me your rocket booster! That's an order!"
    (Pained scream)
    "Matei! Sou ha ikan zo , Megatron!" / "Hold it! No, you don't, Megatron!"
    "Ha ha ha ha ha ha! De ha Destron no nakamaware wo takami no kenbutsu wo sharekomuka." / "Ha ha ha ha ha ha! Then let's treat ourselves to the spectacle of a falling out among the Decepticons."
    "Yamenaika, Gong, ii kagen ni shiro! Kondo Perceptor wo bujoku shite miro. Kono watashi ga damatte inai zo." / "Stop it, Brawn! Enough, already! Just try and insult Perceptor next time. I will not remain silent."
    "Megatrooooon!"
    "Anatagata wo osotta no ha Destron no hakai gundan de, yatsura kara chikyuu wo sukuu no ga wareware no ninmu no da." / "The ones who attacked you are the destructive forces of the Decepticons. It is our mission to protect Earth from them."
    "Aa, Spike, watashi koso honmono no Convoy shireikan da. Tsumari watashi ga Cybertron no soushireikan de ari, kimi no tomo Convoy da yo." / "Yes, Spike, I am the real Commander Optimus Prime. In other words, the supreme commander of the Autobots and your friend, Optimus Prime."
    "Teletran 1! Destron no space bridge no basho wo dashite kure. Hayaku!" / "Teletran 1! Provide the location of the Decepticon space bridge. Hurry!"
    Mode 3 ("The Unicron War", original movie lines, 9 lines total)
    "Omae no okage de nannin no Cybertron ga shinda." / "How many Autobots have died thanks to you?"
    "Tanonda zo, ima warera ni hitsuyou na no ha energy to kouun nan da." / "We're counting on you. Now all we need is energy and good luck." ("Now all we need is a little energon and a lot of luck.")
    "Meister, keibi joukyou ha dou natte iru?" / "Jazz, how's the security situation coming?" ("Jazz, report security status.")
    "Uuumu, mada da!" / "Rrrrh, not yet!" ((Pant pant) Never!")
    "Tatoe kono mi ga gisei ni narou to mo, Megatron ha taosu shika nai!" / "Even if it means sacrificing myself, Megatron must be stopped!" ("Megatron must be stopped, no matter the cost.")
    Mode 4 ("The passing of the Matrix", 5 lines total)
    "Saa, daidai hiki-tsunagarete kita Matrix wo...leader no akashi wo...uketore." / "Now, accept the Matrix...the proof of leadership...passed down for generations." ("[I]t is to you, old friend, that I shall pass the Matrix of Leadership, as it was...passed to me ...")
    "Nani mo, nageki-kanashimu koto ha nai. Jiki ni watashi ha Matrix to hitotsu ni naru kara da." / "There is nothing to regret. ("Do not grieve.") Soon I shall be one with the Matrix."
    Mode 5 (2010/G1 season 3, 5 lines total)
    "Eichi no hikari yo, yami wo terashite kure." / "Light of wisdom, illuminate the darkness." ("Now, light our darkest hour.")
    "Uchuu ga...hitotsu ni...matomaru made ha..." "Until...the universe...is brought together as one." ("Until...all...are one.")
    "Ha ha ha ha ha ha! Aah, ii to mo, Bumble, omae no kibou douri, kore kara omae-san no koto wo Goldbug to yobou." / "Ha ha ha ha ha ha! No problem, Bumblebee. As you wish, from now on, we shall call you Goldbug." ("Ha ha! That you are, Bumblebee, so from now on, that's exactly who you'll be: Goldbug!")
    Mode 6 (Peter Cullen, 4 lines total, no translation necessary)

The people who created the models were geniuses. Figuring out how to transform the toy is one thing, but imagine how complicated it would be to create the original from scratch.

    @austinwelch7313 5 лет назад +11

    While my engineering background applauds what they've been able to do in going from a toon accurate truck to a toon accurate bot, this is ridiculously over-engineered. Takara has gone completely overboard with the toon accuracy. I always looked to MPs for the toon/comic silhouette, but with the real-world deco and details, and this is why they're losing me more and more to 3P stuff. I'm more than happy with MP-10, not only for his (relatively) more direct transformation, but the truck-y kibble and non-hit on my bank account. Still, happy for those that this satisfies. And jealous of some of those trailer features!

  • @darrenbent7601
    @darrenbent7601 5 лет назад +2

    I think that I still prefer MP-10 for a couple of reasons. One, the vehicle mode looks too plain. There is no white stripe around the cab, and the trailer looks too dark, with no blue stripes through the white highlights. And Two, I would prefer that the backpack did not have the electronics, I would prefer to have the weapon storage done in the same way as it is for MP-10, seeing as the Ion-Blaster still has the fold up feature.

    • @pootisbear
      @pootisbear 5 лет назад +2

      Whilst admittedly over-engineered in a few regards there is a reason why some aspects of the transformation are the way they are, Optimus in the cartoon does not rotate his waist or legs whilst transforming from cab to robot in spite of the fact that this is how basically every single figure of him has handled the transformation including previous MP iterations. Takara are so sringent about the whole cartoon accuracy thing that they wanted the figure to reflect the actual transformation as depicted on screen as much as possible, so the designers had to make an extremely complex workaround to ensure Prime's transformation involves no waist or leg rotation whatsoever whilst simaultenously maintaining the cartoon accuracy in as many other aspects of the figure as they could manage.
      Even if you don't like the finished product I think the effort put into this figure by the designers is worth acknlowedging and appreciating. Even though it's completely trivial to like 99% of people the preservation of Prime's actual cartoon transformation really just shows how committed these people are and more over how much respect and admiration that they have for the character and the original source material.

    I get that they're going for show accuracy, and in that regard they did a great job, but the lack of detail and metallic paint just makes one of the most expensive Transformers figures look, ironically, like a cheap knock off.
    Credit where credit's due: the engineering is absolutely phenomenal, but from an aesthetic standpoint, it's just missing something.
    I think if they'd swapped the grey paint out for silver and picked out the eyes in metallic paint like they did for MP-36, I feel the figure would've looked A LOT nicer.
