one of my favorite thing to see is when Thew just holds something up, looks at it, processes what it is, and just starts chuckling to himself. such a good vibe.
It's actually the Select Convertors version of Beet-Gadol/Barrage mold called Crawler. Beet-Gadol (the Beetras verison) was black and had slightly different detailing and the Convertors version has much lower quality plastic and no metal parts. The GPS one is Morphus, the Select Convertors version of Beet-Vadam/Ransack.
Woooo! Happy to see my custom finally arrived! 😁👍🏼 BTW, you can totally tilt the wings back for a more natural look. I had to tilt them forward to fit in the package, lol. Glad you enjoyed it man!
I felt secondhand excitement when the Road Caesar bits showed up. I saw the Motorvators review a while ago, and I was randomly wondering if you ever got the bits. Glad to see you finally have a completed Road Caesar in your collection! Also, I think that tiny Macross Valkyrie was a Select Convertor. I vaguely remember seeing that from toy stores as a kid. Love your content. Keep up the good work!
Roadceaser (the combine that got thew excited) would be a cool thing to have in legacy like gripper is a leader and the other 2 are maybe voyagers/deluxes and it would be a cool 3 bot combiner if it ever happens
I'd be down for the Motorvators being a thing. a simple 3-bot combiner with some extra bits to spruce him up something nice. Maybe a Leader and 2 Deluxe?
That Road Ceasar repro box was magical. I always love seeing people's eyes light up seeing something they were looking for for years. Also, the Skywarp-palette nail polish is fucking choice.
The way you can just transform things you've never encountered before is great. I guess it's a skill developed over time by many a TF fan. I'm always a bit scared to try despite having been in this thing since the start. Having said that, there are times I'll just see random manufactured items out and about and start to see how they _could_ transform. I bet I'm not the only one afflicted with this perceptual state.
Second figure is a toy from "Exo-Squad". An animated space opera with with alot political stuff about equality and war, from the early to mid 90s That figure I beleived belongs the space pirate leader. It was released in the latter end of the franchise run where they were making suits for obscure characters that appeared in the show(suit an character), as well gimmick retools that weren't in the show.
I just remembered something from my childhood. I had a knockoff deluxe insecticon just like the blue beetle one as a kid. I could never get it to transform correctly because it didn't come with instructions and it was definitely missing key joints.
Oh man... Massive nostalgia boner from the mech suit. Captain Jonas Simbaca, leader of the pirate clans from ExoSquad. Easily one of the best stories any animated show ever cranked out, but it was never finished. It ended on a huge cliffhanger that, nearly 30 years later, STILL has me salty as hell.
The mini-con police car is named Armstrong. I got it as part of the Classics line in the 3-pack Night Rescue Team. First ever Mini-cons I ever got, and I still have a go at them today!
My gosh, every time i think "sheesh... perhaps i should quit to collect transformers, i cant afford them... my country its so complicated for this..." Thew release a super happy video with a Road Cesar moment and he with a lot of joy completing it and my mind goes like "DUDE I LOVE TRANSFORMERS!" Thanks Thew
That first black car Bot is Korean Tobot V Mini Classic (or Paragon in the english dub) as is that white Mini Shuttle Bot Tobot V Mini Rocket/shuttle, just thought I'd wade in before KRBrickbot tells you what it is 😉
The blue beetle seems like a Barrage bootleg. Barrage is the Rhino Beetle, Chop Shop is the Stag Beetle, Ransack is the Locust and Venom is the Cicada.
The white mech suit with the geezer inside is Exosquad! You definitely want to give it a go, it was one of the first American cartoons to try to do the long-form story thing in an anime-like way. It cribs a lot from Macross and Yamato, but in a good way. Kinda like how Stranger Things didn't do a lot of original stuff at first but did what it did well.
Absolutely excited that you repaired your G1 Soundwave, hearing your story of it from way back when and seeing you managed to fix it now is really great.
Can i just say i love how much you are amazed by the things that your fans send you. I wish i had anything to send out. Instead i will send out my cheers online!
I used to have that gold KO of Ransack and it ended up in about as many pieces too. Loved the sheer glee at the Rad Caesar parts. Also digging the nails!
The Mobile Suit at 25:04 is the GM Cannon II, so the Guncannon wasn't too far off. It's a "descendant" meant for limited production while also incorporating advancements from the NT-1 Alex Gundam, and a partner unit to the GM Custom. GM in all these instances is pronounced "Jim."
I just got a haul as well consisted of the creatures collide pack the buzzworthy terrosaur and mpm blackout and some minor bankruptcy but still great figures and great video love the haul ones
love everything you do and while i hadnt thought abotu it in about as long that tobal no.1 mug was legendary, that was such a great game traveling down those endless halls haha, great video have fun at TFN!
Oh shit, never thought I'd see Tobots on this channel, that black and gold classical car guy is like a mini simplified version of a larger toy that is the same guy what turns into a car
So glad to watch another vid from you, Thew! Today's probably the 5th anniversary that I've been watching your videos - I think I'll send you a note. I'm not sure I have any figures to send that you'd be interested in (or willing to give up). Also, I've never heard of Tobal No 1. That's Akira Toriyama art for sure, so I think I'll check it out when I've got time. Have fun at TFNation!!
The minicon is Strongarm from the night rescue team. He's a bugger to transform until you learn the trick to it. Cool little figure though. Fun fact: There's a yellow taxi version of him called.... Get this.... Overcharge! 😂
Oh! 7:25 I get casually name dropped, how nice :) Glad that Prowl makes you happy, and that the ageing plastic that broke could be replaced. Miss you my d00d!
Those TFNation showcase videos are some of my favourite recent trends (couple years is recent?) It's like a mega compilation of rapid-fire mini reviews and banter peppered in. Worth the edit crunch for lil old me!
Fun video! Thank you! Oooh, that first Art Deco Roadster-Bot looks bloody amazing! And thanks to tfrWLDNAS, I should have one of my own on the way, very soon. And that Super Couper is a great piece! You paying attention, Hasbro? More of those classy old-time alt-modes, please!
@24:00 that black gun is from Ransack. (Too many comments to search if it had already been answered). I loved the Deluxe insecticons. They were among my very first Transformers as a kid, I had Chop Shop, Barrage and Ransack. Never had Venom sadly. Great video as always! Thanks!
Good luck, my friend. I got lucky at my Walmart when I saw that they had just stocked the Velocitron deluxes. Like they were legit tearing down the shipping boxes from their pallet as I showed up. There was only one
Lmao the games, the Arnold voices....what is today doing to me...nostalgia is great....was at the outlet stores today and "Eddie Bauer" was just a natural Arnold voice word to say...it's pretty fun if you try...what a great episode!!! Love it
The difference with these lines I think, and why we’re not getting sick of them, is they just cant stop putting out *bangers*. Each wave has *multiple* bots worth getting for even the most picky collectors. I went from a dozen or so bots to well over a hundred in the last 18 months or so because its just been a deluge of must haves
Oh my god YOU ACTUALLY FINISHED ROAD CEASER I don't really know the character but I watched your review of the motorvators and it's so exciting to finally see it competed!
"3 years ago?.. That's almost 5 years ago" hahahahahahaha
There's something wonderful about legitimate Thew joy, whilst Unicron looms in the background, plotting.
one of my favorite thing to see is when Thew just holds something up, looks at it, processes what it is, and just starts chuckling to himself. such a good vibe.
Unicron represents the state of the world while Thew represents all of us fawning over plastic toys to distract ourselves
He’s just standing there..... *menacingly!*
@@optimistprime3192 *WEE WOO! WEE WOO!*
the white mech with the dude inside is an E-Frame from exo squad, specifically a pirate E-frame piloted by Jonas Symbaca the pirate leader!
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one!
God, I wish we could get some sort of collectors series Exo-Squad stuff. I'd buy a nicely made, posable high end e-frame or two.
@@LaBambaMan I'm not really a 6" collector, but it would be great to see a 6" scale J.T. Marsh w/ e-frame.
That blue beetle is the original pre-G1 version of Barrage, from "Armoured Insect Battalion Beetras" by Bandai.
That's what I thought when Thew transformed it. So is the GPS one also the pre-G1 (Pre-1) version?
It's actually the Select Convertors version of Beet-Gadol/Barrage mold called Crawler. Beet-Gadol (the Beetras verison) was black and had slightly different detailing and the Convertors version has much lower quality plastic and no metal parts. The GPS one is Morphus, the Select Convertors version of Beet-Vadam/Ransack.

9:35 just the escalation of emotion on his face, from "oh" ok, to "Oh!" didn't expect that, "(gasp) can it be?!", and lastly, "AH! YES!"
The pure unfettered joy exhibited by Thew when Sidewalk Vinagarette got their combiner jammies is probably an ingredient in the cure for cancer.
I felt secondhand excitement when the Road Caesar bits showed up. I saw the Motorvators review a while ago, and I was randomly wondering if you ever got the bits. Glad to see you finally have a completed Road Caesar in your collection!
Also, I think that tiny Macross Valkyrie was a Select Convertor. I vaguely remember seeing that from toy stores as a kid.
Love your content. Keep up the good work!
Right? I’m not Euro (and 26 years younger), so I have no nostalgia but I absolutely knew when he said “Road Caesar” how much it meant.
The Motorvators review was actually the first Re-Thew I watched so I definitely share the sentiment lol
Roadceaser (the combine that got thew excited) would be a cool thing to have in legacy like gripper is a leader and the other 2 are maybe voyagers/deluxes and it would be a cool 3 bot combiner if it ever happens
I'd be down for the Motorvators being a thing. a simple 3-bot combiner with some extra bits to spruce him up something nice. Maybe a Leader and 2 Deluxe?
Man I genuinely feel better after watching these videos.
That fist box was nuts! Glad to see you back Thew.
That intro never gets old.
Love you Thew, from the Philippines
That Road Ceasar repro box was magical. I always love seeing people's eyes light up seeing something they were looking for for years.

If TFWiki is anything to go by, the ones with missing joints tend to be Polyfect's KOs. The ones often associaed with Big Lots.
The white mech guy-thing is Exo Squad
Oh man... Massive nostalgia boner from the mech suit. Captain Jonas Simbaca, leader of the pirate clans from ExoSquad. Easily one of the best stories any animated show ever cranked out, but it was never finished. It ended on a huge cliffhanger that, nearly 30 years later, STILL has me salty as hell.
I loved the first-person dungeon exploring mode that turned into a 3rd-person 3d brawler for the fights in Tobal #1
The mini-con police car is named Armstrong. I got it as part of the Classics line in the 3-pack Night Rescue Team. First ever Mini-cons I ever got, and I still have a go at them today!
Close; his name is actually Strongarm.
Lol my brain reversed it haha
The Gundam series mech at 25:08 is an RGC83 GM Cannon II ;)
Love the way you did your nails, they look fabulous
I haven't seen Thew this happy since he got that Super Gobot Cy-Kill in the mail.
My gosh, every time i think "sheesh... perhaps i should quit to collect transformers, i cant afford them... my country its so complicated for this..." Thew release a super happy video with a Road Cesar moment and he with a lot of joy completing it and my mind goes like "DUDE I LOVE TRANSFORMERS!"
Thanks Thew
The prophecy has come to pass.
Sidewalk Vinegrette: Balsamic Mode
That first black car Bot is Korean Tobot V Mini Classic (or Paragon in the english dub) as is that white Mini Shuttle Bot Tobot V Mini Rocket/shuttle, just thought I'd wade in before KRBrickbot tells you what it is 😉
Thanks for that! I should now have one on the way to me from Amazon. Greatly appreciated, mate!
The blue beetle seems like a Barrage bootleg.
Barrage is the Rhino Beetle, Chop Shop is the Stag Beetle, Ransack is the Locust and Venom is the Cicada.
4:44 I think that battle mech thing is from a toyline called exo-squad! Toy galaxy did a video on it a while ago, and it looks pretty similar.
Yes. You were right. It's actually the leader of the pirate faction that later became the co-leader of the human forces in Exo Squad.
@@joshshields9229 figured!
technology has advanced so far that somebody just 3D printed an accurate replica of G1 toy parts in their home.
Seeing Thew in just absolute childlike glee has made my day immediately great.
The green and white Gundam with two cannons is an RGC-83 GM Cannon II, a very delightful and slightly obscure lad
4:58 & 8:36 I didn't expect you to get Rocket and Classic Mini version from Tobot V Series
Thoroughly impressed and delighted that Thew was able to fix his childhood G1 Soundwave so that it functions properly once again. Well done Thew! 😊
Dude I swair that was the best arnald swartsinager impersonation I’ve ever heard
My favorite guy on RUclips uploading on my birthday 🎉
Thank Thew very much! 🥳
The Euro-Road Caesar was great to see
Never knew we are of the same age. So glad that our generation was full of cool stuff.
The white mech suit with the geezer inside is Exosquad! You definitely want to give it a go, it was one of the first American cartoons to try to do the long-form story thing in an anime-like way. It cribs a lot from Macross and Yamato, but in a good way. Kinda like how Stranger Things didn't do a lot of original stuff at first but did what it did well.
I just love your energy so much. It’s always a joy to watch you sit down and talk about robits and robutts for however long at a time.
Always good to see a toy get completed...and what a stunner! Love Road Caeser!
Absolutely excited that you repaired your G1 Soundwave, hearing your story of it from way back when and seeing you managed to fix it now is really great.
Can i just say i love how much you are amazed by the things that your fans send you. I wish i had anything to send out. Instead i will send out my cheers online!
Wow I could feel the excitement for the Road Caesar gear through the screen!
I won't lie, the nails looks amazing ✨
why thou?
The nails are 10/10 love them
I used to have that gold KO of Ransack and it ended up in about as many pieces too. Loved the sheer glee at the Rad Caesar parts. Also digging the nails!
I love your nails. They kind of got beast wars megatron colors
Excellent, A Thew Unboxing to get us in the TF Nation spirit. I hope to see you there as I always seem to miss you in the bar.
The Mobile Suit at 25:04 is the GM Cannon II, so the Guncannon wasn't too far off. It's a "descendant" meant for limited production while also incorporating advancements from the NT-1 Alex Gundam, and a partner unit to the GM Custom. GM in all these instances is pronounced "Jim."
I'd take a GM over a Gundam any day haha
I just got a haul as well consisted of the creatures collide pack the buzzworthy terrosaur and mpm blackout and some minor bankruptcy but still great figures and great video love the haul ones
love everything you do and while i hadnt thought abotu it in about as long that tobal no.1 mug was legendary, that was such a great game traveling down those endless halls haha, great video have fun at TFN!
Finely the motivater has returned still one of my favorite vids on the channel
Absolutely love the nails
I just painted my a simple dark green nothing special
Keep being thew and always enjoy yourself
Oh shit, never thought I'd see Tobots on this channel, that black and gold classical car guy is like a mini simplified version of a larger toy that is the same guy what turns into a car
Great unboxing session! I love your enTHEWsiasm and your videos always brighten my day!
Looks like an Exo-squad that 2nd figure as my brother owned those figures when they came out.
So glad to watch another vid from you, Thew! Today's probably the 5th anniversary that I've been watching your videos - I think I'll send you a note. I'm not sure I have any figures to send that you'd be interested in (or willing to give up).
Also, I've never heard of Tobal No 1. That's Akira Toriyama art for sure, so I think I'll check it out when I've got time.
Have fun at TFNation!!
it wasn't until I saw the skywarp colors on your nails that I realized he's Ace Flag colored. What an icon.
Can’t wait for TFN, so close !!!
The minicon is Strongarm from the night rescue team. He's a bugger to transform until you learn the trick to it. Cool little figure though. Fun fact: There's a yellow taxi version of him called.... Get this.... Overcharge! 😂
Oh! 7:25 I get casually name dropped, how nice :) Glad that Prowl makes you happy, and that the ageing plastic that broke could be replaced. Miss you my d00d!
love the vids!!!
Needed a dose of nostalgia today and this hit the spot. Have no idea who the cop bot is but I've got him somewhere in the home.
Hearing Thew talk about Parappa was absolutely incredible and my day is better because of it
Excellent!! I can use some Thew today.
Oh damn, love the nails Thew!
I love that you’ve completed Road Ceaser - that’s awesome 👏
Holy shit, an E-Frame from Exo Squad! (the second item) That's Simbacca!
Those TFNation showcase videos are some of my favourite recent trends (couple years is recent?) It's like a mega compilation of rapid-fire mini reviews and banter peppered in. Worth the edit crunch for lil old me!
Thew, I love the nails. It’s a good look on you.
Like the skywarp nails, they look on fleek
Fun video! Thank you!
Oooh, that first Art Deco Roadster-Bot looks bloody amazing! And thanks to tfrWLDNAS, I should have one of my own on the way, very soon. And that Super Couper is a great piece!
You paying attention, Hasbro? More of those classy old-time alt-modes, please!
Your happiness unboxing that Road Ceaser has made my day.
Luv Ya Thew ^__^
Yo I love your vids man you just made my day.
So much fun packed in 28 min!
@24:00 that black gun is from Ransack. (Too many comments to search if it had already been answered). I loved the Deluxe insecticons. They were among my very first Transformers as a kid, I had Chop Shop, Barrage and Ransack. Never had Venom sadly. Great video as always! Thanks!
The geezer in the mech suit is Jonas Simbacca, leader of the space pirates from Exo Squad
Euroad Ceasar is a thing of beauty. Congratulations!
Super cool that you used the broken Soundwave to repair your old one.
Those nails are on fleek god damn
Oh hey that pirate mech guy is from Exo Squad!
I like and love whiching every dammit open and there being me joy and happiness 😊 😊
I'm in a high speed battle with other collectors in my area to find Cosmos. Best of luck at TFN. Botcon Nash is next for me.
Good luck, my friend. I got lucky at my Walmart when I saw that they had just stocked the Velocitron deluxes. Like they were legit tearing down the shipping boxes from their pallet as I showed up. There was only one
@@krazyguy1234 yeah man, our smallest Walmart had them first but cosmos is gone. The bigger ones are just now getting the stickers on the pegs.
I also have that MSIA grandpa Gundam but with a slightly different deco. Amazing!
Love your nails, Thew
Mech suit is the Pirate Captain E-frame from exo squad! I loved that series!
Lmao the games, the Arnold voices....what is today doing to me...nostalgia is great....was at the outlet stores today and "Eddie Bauer" was just a natural Arnold voice word to say...it's pretty fun if you try...what a great episode!!! Love it
Everything you do is entertaining mate
For some reason my replies not staying here
I did message back straight away
Was also great to see you at tfnation
HOLY CRAP, I had that beetle dude when I was kid, this is the first time I've seen it in like 25 years.
That Tobot V Mini Classic is a banger. Enjoy it!
The Battle mechs are called EXO Squard Robotech. which there are rare toys
I just recently discovered Hobbies with Jose and love his stuff. It's fun to see my favorite TF content creators interacting.😁😁
Thanks Tom! 😁👍🏼
Love the self expression with the nails! I want to paint mine again!
Everytime I see these, it just reminds me I have to write and send some stuff to Thew. Hope he enjoys TF Nation!
The difference with these lines I think, and why we’re not getting sick of them, is they just cant stop putting out *bangers*. Each wave has *multiple* bots worth getting for even the most picky collectors. I went from a dozen or so bots to well over a hundred in the last 18 months or so because its just been a deluge of must haves
love the vid and love the nails 😁
That cop minicon came with the TF Cybertron Primus I believe. I still have him kicking about somewhere.
Oh my god
YOU ACTUALLY FINISHED ROAD CEASER
I don't really know the character but I watched your review of the motorvators and it's so exciting to finally see it competed!
Digging the nails! Looks all skywarpy
That black gun you asked about belongs to Ransack. He came with that and a tiny, yellow shield.
