    some non transforming transformers are really good like the three-zero BUT some are just bad like the R.E.D series when the plastic is literally disintegrating all the time so yea

      What hurts for me is that they don’t do anything that transforming could compromise (articulation, sculpt, paint). They don’t look better than their transforming counterparts really.

    Idk about all non-transforming transformers, but this guy is certainly worth it.
    Edit: since this is your first Revoltech, the line uses much less Revoltech joints lately and pretty much focuses on the Amazing Yamaguchi line these days, which follows the “stylized proportions for more articulation” trend. They’re much more stable figures nowadays.

    At 4:59 thanks man! Wasn't having the best of days and had actually forgotten about the tweet so when the video started I was like "is it... Possible?" really cheered me up. As a photographer I absolutely love what you do with these posing segments, although it's a video, the way you capture it, with the simplicity of the background and the crisp focus. Has inspired a change in the way I do my stuff, and also gotten me back into collecting transformers, my wallet would love to thank you. Take care man and keep up the fantastic work! You are genuinely one of the best review channels I've found, and I'm very picky lol , once again if you have read this far into my mad ramblings, why? And I wish you all the best

    Honestly as time consuming as they can be, I’d highly recommend the transformers model kits. It can be a fun experience building them and once their fully together, they feature great pose-ability and decent accessories to help with those poses. I recommend the G1 Optimus Prime by flame toys, the bumblebee movie Optimus Prime(in the process of obtaining), the Megatron(IDW) by flame toys, and the starscream by flame toys. These are the ones I currently own and it’s been a fun time posing them

    One thing to keep in mind is your version is a first release. There was a later "Legacy of Revoltech" release which was a part of a line of re-releases that fixed any notable QC or general issues.
    Like others have also said, modern Revoltechs are using more variety of joints. Recommend you check out the Amazing Yamaguchi Optimus Prime which is one said modern Revoltech.

  • @RingoLoadagain
    @RingoLoadagain Год назад +3

    I think the bayverse is popularizing non-transforming transformers, because it's almost impossible to make a truly accurate transforming version of these characters. I don't understand the point of a non-transforming beast wars or G1 figure, since those designs are much more achievable as transforming figures.

    0:26 I don't know. From where I stand, transformation hasn't been the sole defining aspect of "Transformers" since about 1985. Ever since then "Transformers" has also been defined by characters and lore, as well as other gimmicks to the point where the action masters happened only 7 years after the beginning of the line.
    I can say for myself that if I had an option to replace all my transforming transformer toys with better looking non-transforming ones, I wouldn't hasitate a moment before doing so, because my "Robot enhanced design" "Prime" Knock Out for all its flaws is still unmatched by any transforming toy of him.
    When it comes to live action movie and other equally complex transformers designed for fiction first, I would've been asking if transforming toys of them are worth looking at if there was actually a proper amount of non-transforming ones as an option, because a toy of a live action transformer can either look as good as Revoltech Optimus does or transform, never both. It can get close to it, like "Studio series" did, but there will be either drawbacks or an unaffordable price.

    This figure really is awesome. I had the version that had the entire jetpower backpack with all the dotm accessories. It was really cool but the real reason I sold it (as mentioned in the video) is the soft plastic. Things started to stick and warp a bit and yeah he falls over and sort of blobs out of poses sometimes.

    I love non transforming transformers, and am in it more for the unique character designs, rather than the vehicles. I've modified nearly all of my SS figures the look as screen accurate as possible, even at the cost of the transformation. As for this figure, I love my copy, and didn't even know the forearms popped off. I did buy it used, so it's possible the previous owner glued them...

  • @robowarrior369
    @robowarrior369 Год назад +1

    The masterpiece looks fat next to this and it makes clear the issue that transforming movie figures always had specially the first 5. They really never were able to nail the screen accuracy of nothing. The movie designs are always so organic and slim and trying to make these kind of robots out of vehicle components is impossible unless mass shifting becomes a thing.
    They are always able to get really close to the cgi designs but not quire 100% accurate. Like in the ending of dotm when Bee turns into robot mode next to Sam, the car front doesn't just angle the sides and turns into his chest, It gets a bit smaller in order to looks proportionally right. If movie designs didn't had that pretty much all movie bots would look clunky and toyish something Michael Bay didn't wanted to. That seems to be part of the reason the bbb movie figures are so great. They were designed with the toys in mind.

    A long while ago in a forum grab box I was mailed incomplete Revos of Prime, Megatron, Hot Rod, and Starscream. As older releases they aren't exactly as amazing as this Prime, but still articulate, and fun novelty toys. Should look into some replacement joints as HR, and SS lost a leg somewhere along the way. As for other non transforming figures, I almost consider Soundwave one as he looks great in bot mode, and I see no reason to ruin that by transforming him into whatever space vehicle Siege had dreamed up for him

    Personally I don't have an issue with Non-Transforming Transformers figures. Most of the figures especially for Bayformers have their accuracy, detail, and articulation comprised due to the transformation or a specific gimmick that was popular at the time. Claiming that it's worthless and it shouldn't exist because it can't transform is superficial and arrogant.

    I think it's fine if a figure might not transform if you're a display guy (Sometimes, not always, but sometimes), but then I know that for some, that's blasphemy.
    Personally, I could see some merit to non-transforming toys as some figures design-wise are just going to have some compromises due to how they built these designs to not transform (For some, that just means Accuracy is a mistake, but then there's a reason accuracy sells (Besides the obvious idea of a figure drought)
