I must have had some “Once in a Blue Moon” luck when I got my silversteak, because their is nothing wrong with him.
Same
Same here
There*
Likewise
Same for me.
I have a headcanon for the Mutant Tigatron. I like to imagine him as a separate character: a Predacon named Shearcon(a play on the tiger character Shere Khan from “The Jungle Book”), who is more visceral and brutal than Tigatron and could serve as his rival. He’s a firm believer in “survival of the fittest” and believes everything is fodder for his (and the Predacons’) conquest of Earth. His special weapon is a set of claws that can shear any material(hence the name).
I also have a headcanon for Silverstreak. He’s Bluestreak’s twin brother, and is a bit of a jokester. He was originally the silver and red one, but he and Bluestreak occasionally swapped paint schemes as a way to mess with everyone. He hasn’t been seen since the early days of the war. Some people say he died at the Battle of Crystal City. Others say he fled to one of Cybertron’s colony worlds. And a certain few can swear they saw him roaming around Earth in a black and purple police car alternate mode, with a distinct decal that reads “To punish and enslave.” But whatever the case, Bluestreak keeps his brother’s memory alive by wearing Silverstreak’s silver and red colors with pride, forever confusing his fellow Autobots.
Wow, that got cringy real quick.
I mean is it a play on his name when it's just the two halves stuck together. I feel like it needs to have a double meaning to be a play on that.
But yes this would work better as a Villain, and it's not even non cannon since this guy doesn't have a faction badge.
I mean Barricade is more Prowls rival, not Bluestreaks.
@@PerspectiveEnd I mean, he’s a tiger who shears through things. That’s kinda what I was thinking when I said it was a “play on his name.” Sorry I got the meaning misconstrued.
Huh, I didn’t realize he didn’t have a badge until you said something. But that’s just another thing that could make the idea work.
Also, I’m just sayin, have you ever seen Silverstreak and Barricade in the same room together? Cause that would honestly be cool to see in a Legacy series. But the Roosterteeth team would probably botch it like they did the rest of the WFC Trilogy.
Love the idea
I see the yellowing issue more and more, and I honestly think it's due to Hasbro going cheap on the plastic mix, because I've heard of cyclonus and Siege Megatron having the same issue with their gray plastics.
I do not have that experience with my Galvatron nor Cyclonus, and I've had them a lot longer, so I can say that those ones may be a bit exaggerated.
@@PerspectiveEndit’s been two years and my Cyclonus looks more yellow than grey.
I really wish Hasbro would make some repaints of bayverse/Knightverse studio series molds. I would KILL for a Jet Shatter in skywarp colors, or a ROTF Optimus in nemesis colors, maybe even a barricade in prowl colors. The possibilities are so damn awesome.
It's so annoying how there is Knight Optimus, and now also Travis Knight Optimus, so confusing.
As for Jet Shatter in Skywarp colors, that could be cool yes.
It would be really cool if someone made a compound to fix yellowed plastic like the joint compound stuff.
I believe the stuff already exists, it's just a little dangerous to the finish of the figure.
I was honestly tempted to get the Starscream just for the swords alone. I really wish Hasbro would release accessory packs sometimes.
Yeah. I would buy accessory packs my self.
I would like to see more of these repaint/retool compilation videos. Also the colorscheme on the shattered glass Starscream makes me think of an ice cream sundae with strawberry sauce and crushed oreos
Well you will have to wait, because I did all the ones I collected recently in this one go.
He does look a bit like that yeah.
@@PerspectiveEnd Don't mind the wait
Nice video. The short segments were extremely enjoyable. Only one of these I want to pick up is silverstreak, so that I may paint him into prowl. You should totally look at MMC mirage next though.
Man how do you know I have that?
@@PerspectiveEnd magic
Silverstreak is honestly one of my favorite figures as it's a amazing color deco and I'm thinking of getting a second one.
I'm glad you prefer it. I find it to be too flimsy to be comfortable with.
Shattered glass perspective be like:
“I love micheal bay, parts forming and faux forming”
SG Perspective be like "Transformers is Dumb, DC movies are where it's at!"
man even with a good mold like the earthrise dastans Hasbro's QC still finds a way to screw it up
It does look better than the siege version for sure.
The head sculpt is actually very accurate to the original shattered glass comics
On which one?
The Skywarp one is so frustrating too, because his picture on the official Hasbro site depict him with both the null-rays _and_ the fork, complete with the fork having a cooler deco that makes it look like there's a burning energy core inside of ridges on it. I still love the Skywarp (even if mine had one of his pegs break so his chest no longer clips into place), but god DAMN that was a missed opportunity.
As soon as this video was over, my little brother stumbled in Drunk off his ass and stepped on Skywarp, so now a wrong weapon is the least of that figures problems.
I only got the skywarp because I'm committed to trying to get every core class figure
dude, the head doesn't look off or wrong at all, it's exactly how SG Blurr's head always looked like since his first figure, a repaint of the cybertron blurr. Not to mention the lightning paint job which was also present in said cybertron repaint.
The head looks like a creepier version of the original Botcon head, but it doesn't quite match up with it's own comic at all, and it doesn't fit the character who is just a Mercenary, this looks like the head of the torture expert.
@@PerspectiveEnd that's the point geniusm to emulate the original sg blutt
The Buzz Saw is truly the only one I want I honestly think it’s the only one worth it if you don’t have a SG collection
Not sure if it will help at all, but there are ways to reverse yellowing on certain types of plastic.
You may already be familiar with it as a retro videogame collector, but apparently one of the ingredients that you get in a hair coloring mix will remove yellowing if exposed to UV Light (sunlight)
Yeah there are a few things I could try, but so far this doesn't bother me so bad since it's just on his back.
I also have nostalgia for buzzsaw, but not for the beast wars figure funnily enough. I had Cybertron buzzsaw growing up, which was a repaint of armada Cyclonus but colored to look like beast wars buzzsaw, and I loved messing with that figure a lot. Getting legacy buzzsaw made me realize how much I missed that figure tbh.
Man I didn't even know that happened, that's a Weird Repaint right there.
@@PerspectiveEnd that’s not even the only Cybertron toy remolded from armada repainted into an obscure beast wars character. Armada hoist was remolded and repainted in Cybertron to become longrack, a maximal from beast wars neo that turned into a giraffe, I had that one as well and loved the hell out of it. I wouldn’t be surprised if longrack and buzzsaw inspired the botcon set dawn of futures past, which had the beast wars cast in pre earth cybertronian modes, the molds of which were derived from the Unicron trilogy, mostly Cybertron.
Was recently at Target, and I passed on the Silverstreak since I wasn't sure if it would break on me or not. There were like 40 of them there, and I actually walked in on a lady putting more up, so I wasn't worried about not getting one, and grabbed an 86 Sweep instead.
Glad I avoided it, my only other options were 86 Blurr, Legacy Arcee, Coronation Starscream, and while there were the Legacy Leaders there, I didn't have enough for them at the time. I think I got the best of the lot
Good to hear that my warnings are not lost on everyone.
I renamed Mutant Tigatron, "Tigertronus" and treat him as a Predacon. lol Thank you for giving praise to BW Buzzsaw PerspectiveEnd, since I really want to get a hold of this figure. Keep on being amazing.
I mean it's not like my praise made him better, but I'm glad I was able to confirm to you that he will be good.
@@PerspectiveEnd Your praise did make him better, in my opinion. lol :D
Great video as always! Also, the e-mails regarding the fixes were sent
Ok I see what you mean, though the gun you used is very strange.
Love the idea of the Repaint Episode!
And did the idea turn out well?
Silverbluestreak seems to have a strange QC roulette going on. I have all versions of the ER Datsun boys except Barricade, and my Silverstreak is as good or better than any of them. No joint or transformation problems, and it's the only version of the mold I have where I DON'T need to strain the toy to get the shoulders to tab in place. I do see the paint work being rough in spots though. On mine the face paint is thick enough to soften his features, and I'm not a fan of the blue-over-white-plastic on the shoulders, which make it look like light is spilling out from them.
He does seem like he might be the most inconsistently handled. Maybe they ran him at multiple factories, and one of them was really bad.
Buzzaw looks really good
He does indeed.
2:06 Return of boy ! ! ! 1
Indeed.
Never called you blurr before. I called you Mr MicroMaster(piece).
If only I understood what you meant by that?
Been a month since this confusing comment.
Love this idea
Glad people responded so well to it.
So we got savage boi, pirate blurr, bule bluestreak, tiny shark, tiny goth starscream, a super fly boi, and starscream cosplaying as his boyfriend
yes I am very proud of these nicknames
They are good nicknames.
I feel so bad about your silverstreak😭 he's one of the best figures in my collection, got me some god tier qc, it seems that silverstreak is VERY hit or miss and I'm so fuckin glad i got a massive hit, anyway great video as always!
I'm glad that yours is good, from what I hear it's more miss than hit, but there are a few out there like you who got lucky.
7:52 the pun sure is a buzz!
Idk if I like the greenish teal or the mutant head or what but I love the mutant tigertron more than the normal one and I have both
I can understand why.
My original tigatron has goofy eyes
The pupils are rolled back in the head, painted to high
Like the one from the 90s or the one from kingdom?
@@PerspectiveEnd kingdom lol
I own that Buzzsaw and I agree with everything you've said about it, but kine has a few QC problems that involve the torso splitting from the legs (probably a flashing problem) and the yellow jacket head is so tight. But other than that, he is great, but I still prefer the Sandstorm as he surprised the shit out of me.
Also, now that you've reviewed Skywarp, is What's the best: Legacy Wave 1 coming soon???
I don't understand how the Sandstorm surprised so many people, because he still looks the way he does, and he's just the Scorponok in more boring colors?
I mean even if it feels better, that was only like 1/3rds his problems.
QotV:
My answer: Great video! Here's a comment.
I suck so bad I can't even remember to ask people to subscribe for the 2 year anniversary.
5:44 thats a your copy thing, mine fortunately has no issues but holy sh*t hasbro didnt care
The person who commented just after you had 3 of the Silverstreaks break, and just got sick of returning them.
Glad your's holds up, but yeah, treat it with kid gloves maybe.
Buzzsaw looks amazing. Waspinator but better. I don't really like his face. But the light piping is amazing.
I don't know if it's Waspinator but better, but it does look cool.
@@PerspectiveEnd It isnt *technically* better but it looks way better
Got dk-2 guard he is decent, depends on if you like the er mold or not
Got lazer prime, he is alright
Got buzzsaw today…. Because of this video… feels as bad as my waspinator…. I dint see the love for buzzsaw
I'm so sorry man. I feel like I steered you wrong. I really enjoy the Laser Prime, and I think the Buzzsaw just looks so cool. The build isn't great but I like it well enough.
I feel bad now.
Buzzsaw got sold out where I am and I can't find him
They are everywhere where I live.
Not the "Christmas themed Oreo"!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Glad you liked that bit.
Hasbro needs to make a waruders but with the new waspinator mold
I was so upset with the wreck n Rule set that the hammer of the wreckers was cardboard when the theme was combining weapons for Legacy. Would have thought the hammer would have been plastic pieces that can be used separate or combined together for the hammer. They already screwed up the whole gimmick
Yeah, it's a bit cheap. I guess it's kind of like the new Netflix, teletran 1 that came with that first wave of Netflix figures.
i like the legacy skywarp weapon and the combined 3 weapon in my opinion i don't mind the null rays
Also i love the Mutant Tigatron repaint!
Legacy Skywarp is fine as a figure. The Tigatron Repaint is cool, I was just expecting more.
9:04 this is the first time hearing that siegescreamer has a problem with yellowing. Checked mine and hes still perfect guess im lucky lol
Man that's all I hear about this guy, it was a HUGE controversy for a while because it's so bad and so fast people were like "How did you miss this?"
Have to jump in to say this but newer copies of SG Screamer don't have the yellowing issue so I thought I'd let that been know. Also based on my own research due to knowing 4 people who have it since it's a massive shelfwarmer in my area. Silverstreak has a lot of variance that it shouldn't. My own copy and two of said people's have perfectly fine QC but but the other two have SS86 Sludge looseness. Thigh hopefully that example is only a me problem.
My copy is only a couple months old though?
@@PerspectiveEnd I mean new as in copies from like 1 month ago. Though it's no longer available on pulse so not like it matters anymore.
I think the only repaint from the WFC trilogy that I have is the Soundblaster figure. Sure it still has that same barge alt mode, but the colors do make it look cooler to a degree. And for my copy, it had better joints than my Siege Soundwave, save for a slightly loose head.
With that said though, I do wish I had known there was going to be a Soundblaster with the Mercenary faction logo. The only real difference I can see is the faction logo and how very few fractures there are on the chest. I mainly would have wanted it just for how it helps the figure stand out more from the other Siege figures.
But since I already got the first Soundblaster, I didn’t end up seeing a need to get the Mercenary version.
I got Silverstreak for my little brother's birthday, along with Legacy Skids, I later found out that my Aunt also got him Silverstreak, so I just ending up taking the spare one. Mid transformation the windshield snaps clean off. I also find out that my brother broke his copy too. . .in the exact same spot.
Sorry to hear that. That sucks. Yeah he's just not well made, damn thing is prone to self destruction.
Speaking of Silverstreak, I have never seen one of those in person that still had its head. This thing released at the height of the “no plastic inserts” phase And hooligans were ripping the heads off of whatever toys they could manage.
Why are people awful?
Man I keep forgetting to mention that. I was going to then didn't.
You know what’s worse your mom finding a bee movie ironhide hide sending you the picture then a couple days later you get it and it has no head a the only reason you didn’t know he didn’t have his head is cause your mom took the picture at an angle where you wouldn’t notice his he didn’t have his head (luckily she also got a legacy arcee and skids and she gave me full support to every month or so ask my dad (he didn’t try to get the milk he just left after I was born) to get a figure I wanted on eBay so that means I’m getting a bee movie ironhide on Saturday (also that means I can get some rare earthrise figures mainly barricade and counter punch so that’s some revenge for leaving me when I just got born)
I really love the Mutant Tigatron over regular Tigatron… I prefer this alt mode over the snow tiger. I only bought Mutant Tigatron.
Core class Hotrod, so bad he makes two other core class characters worse (I really don’t like Iguanas’ accessory either).
I will always love the mesmerizing Green and White of the original.
Of the Walmart beasts the only one I skipped was nightprowler, buzzsaw and sandstorm I quite liked, but nightprowler desperately needed some hits of navy blue and gold
I think the only one that was interesting was Buzzsaw, I mean sandstorm is just so boring looking.
In your ER video you said that the ER Proul is an improved product over the Siege one. So the only good ER version of this mold is the impossible to find exclusive one? AWESOME 👍😀
Well I mean it looks better, based on my experience with the mold, it's probably built like crap, but I've never handled a ER Prowl.
Im surprised nobody has made a Knock off of the datsun mold without the clear plastic or a upgrade kit that replaced the clear plastic
I mean the clear plastic is a HUGE part of it. I don't see how you just get rid of that.
I just mean the legs but yeah you just reminded me back has it too
Somehow my Starscream hasn't yellowed, the only thing that seems slightly discolored is the spring-loaded gap-fillers on his calves. Sucks that he does yellow for other people though.
Like I said I don't think it's light, I think it's some kind of material that is getting on them or something, because there's no reason it should yellow on the back when that's in complete darkness and the front is what yellows when that gets at least a bit of light.
I got Silverstreak, and he's really odd with QC. His paint is all nice, and his joints are tighter than my bluestreak, but he has issues that one didn't have and vice versa. The gun is too tight on silverstreak, while the cannons are too loose on bluestreak. Bluestreak doesn't want to connect all the way at the legs and roof, and silverstreak doesn't want to plug in all the way at the the arms and doors.
Yeah, QC is a Crapshoot with these guys.
I actually have Silverstreak (this one should have been Bluestreak, but I don’t blame Bob Budiansky (probably misspelled his last name) because I think he actually thought he was getting a blue bot with Bluestreak) and I like him. I don’t love the figure but I like it. I don’t own any other Datsun bot so I can’t speak for plastic feeling, though I probably won’t be able to tell the difference because I can’t tell the difference between flimsy and sturdy plastic (except 86 Hot Rod, I’ve had the thing for well over a year but even when I got it for the first time the plastic felt weird but now that I own Kingdom Rodimus I can actually tell somehow that 86 Hot Rod feels cheap as sh*t) , but the only thing I’m actually afraid of is the legs, but other than that I actually like him. Also P I replied on the Iguanas video but I have no idea if it actually went through.
I actually think it was like a Copyright thing with the names.
Anyways I'm glad that you are enjoying it and it's not feeling like it's going to shatter at any moment.
I'll take a look and see if I can find the comment.
I love silverstreak mainly just because hes such a good mold, but the issues (besides the paint) you listed are exactly the same as mine. Which sucks so damn bad because aside from the legs it could've been amazing.
Also, have you seen the final version of magic sqaure optimus 2.0? I'm a recent subscriber and I went binging through all your videos, noticing you mentioned the figure at its baby stages
Glad you like your's anyways, but for me, I kind of want to never look at this again.
I've seen it yes, I've been considering getting it, but it's pretty expensive, and I want to try and spend less money right now.
I like the skywarp, hopefully they'll do a second release where they just give the accessories to hotrod and give skywarp his proper null rays, kinda like how the second release cyberverse deluxes from the first 4 waves removed the maccadam parts
I would be down for a second version with out the stupid tuning fork and with the guns.
For once, I’m glad I didn’t listen to your advice and got a Silverstreak. I like him, and got pretty good qc. Also added silver across the whole top and back to improve the car mode aesthetic, and painted the guns silver.
Glad to hear your's was good. Too many people told me their was bad, and when mine was too I couldn't in good conscience tell people to gamble on their figure.
8:30 I think it looks like he has a faceplate instead of a nose and a mouth.
As of right now, Buzzsaw is the one I'm most interested in. I mean... look at him! He looks sick! Anyway, great palooza.
He would look cooler with a face plate. And thank you very much.
Update: I actually really like buzzsaw, took me a while to actually enjoy him,
Glad to hear you came around on his Stylishness.
I’ve had cancer, and I’d take Silverstreak any day. Between him and Barricade, I sorta prefer Silverstreak only because I didn’t have to heat up the doors so the arms would peg in
I'm not crazy, I don't think a bad toy is actually WORSE than cancer.
-Golden Disk Collection Mutant Tigatron looks cool. His orange tiger colors looks well applied. I like how the mutant head pops more than on Shadow Panther. On him, it looks like a tribal mask. But on Tigatron here, it looks like what it's called, mutated head.
-Shattered Glass Blurr and Starscream looks cool. Like the blue/dark blue, black and silver body color on him. The orange on his chest plate and bits on his helmet really adds a nice touch to it. Head sculpt looks better than the SS86 Blurr hands down. And I swear, with the electric lighting streaks, I get Zoom vibes from The Flash show. Starscream on the other hand is great. Like how the Jetfire color scheme is applied to the tetrajet mold. The sword looks cool. I do wish the figure and many of his copies didn't have this yellowing effect. I haven't seen it on my copy, and hope it stays that way.
-Buzzworthy Bumblebee Silverstreak is alright. The colors are well applied. But I wish it was a complete recolor of the Earthrise Bluestreak, and not the Smokescreen body with Bluestreaks head. I don't have a problem with the QC on my copy, because I don't have my Transformers out to play. But I do wish Hasbro did a better job for the other copies. Looking forward to many more Diaclone theme characters to get their time in the spotlight.
-I heard about these knockoff SS86 Gnaws. Haven't read much into it, as I already have an army of Sharkticons.
-Core Class Skywarp is neat. I'm with everyone on wishing he came with null rays. It's the signature weapon of the Decepticon Seekers. And here he is with a tuning fork. That combines to make a bigger hilt for the core class Hot Rod sword. Ridiculous. But his paint job is well applied.
-Legacy Buzzsaw is cool. Like how you shown off his light pipping, especially when you had him in the dark with the light behind him. The figure itself looks awesome. I do wish his box and the other Walmart exclusive figures had the QR code that on the other Legacy box packaging. To read up his static like for the other Legacy figures. I got him, Autobot Nightprowler, and Predacon Sandstorm.
I don't know that it pops more, but it being bigger sure helps.
Yeah both the SG figures look sick.
I can't trust the Silverstreak, the reports I've seen and the one's I've handled really warn me away.
Nice, so you were able to troop build.
Believe it or not, the Light piping in the dark looks even cooler in person.
HOLD A BLOODY BEER! I've came up with the term "Repaint Palooza" all the way back in 2016! Where are my royalties, ah?
I don't see it on your channel, I think Copyright might favor me. I'll see you in court. Now where did I place that high priced Attorney?
Just a little piece of trivia did you know that Keith David voiced dreadwing in transformers prime and the fallen in Revenge of the Fallen well now you know
Keith David voiced neither of those characters. That was Tony Todd.
I had a few of the siege prowl mold so I wanted to get silverstreak so I could see what the retool was like. And just like you mine was shit. It was really bad and I don’t think I will get any of the earth mode molds.
Based on all experience I've had and been told the ER Datsun mold is just a half hearted cash grab made out of garbage.
Glad you picked up Shattered glass starscream. I don’t even like the SG concept but the figure makes a perfect jetfire with the commander being skyfire, since they’re basically 2 different characters
What's wrong with the concept. I think it's fun.
It be cool if hasbro pulse didn't take forever to stock figures with all the ones I want always being sold out like for example Commander class Jetfire
I know right. They are the worst about that. They really need to get on doing a better job of stocking..
My Brother Got Mutant Tigatron ~ a Month ago and It's Honestly kind of Mid, Shadow panther is WAY more fun
Interesting. I personally prefer Tigatron.
SG blurr is exactly what I mean when I say that a coloror may make it or breack it. also, that face looks like a car crash, and I think the one guy making the mold took it too litterally of a description
Yeah, just look at the Wreckers Springer. That thing should not look that much worse just because of the colors but it does.
People's SG Screamers are yellowing meanwhile my OG Siege Jetfire has no yellowed bits at all. Huh.
I don't think Skyfire is known to have plastics that yellow.
Damn, you got done dirty with your Silverstreak. Mine barely had any QC issues surprisingly. My only issue is that I ran out of shelf space for it
The only issue I have I had is that the doors don't want to tab in properly
There are a good number of people who seem to have had good luck with it, but an equal number who had the opposite experience. So I don't know if I got done dirty, or you got done fortunate.
It takes a lot for me to buy a repaint, usually it comes down to character. Skywarp will and has gotten me before.
Understandable. I think that's how a lot of people operate.
5:53 Ive had my earthrise Smokescreen for a while and it didnt even get a paint chip. Or loose joints. So I guess I had good luck
Glad to hear yours has survived, Mine has too, but I try not to touch it.
I'm sad buzzsaw doesn't have a regular waspinator head if he did I'd buy him or if someone made a replacement for it
The Creatures Collide box comes with a Regular Waspinator head, but I think half the draw of this thing is the new unique head.
while I kinda prefer the look of ER Datsun, I still think the Siege works better as a toy to play with.
SG Blurr is a cool repaint on otherwise a pretty mediocre mold.
(but the Velocitron Blurr version looks pretty tempting ngl, i might change my opinion on that version)
The ER does have a good look, but they are so bad to handle.
Yeah, the Velocitron one looks cool.
God I love all the repaints the shattered glass repaints are awesome and I don't have any problem with silverstreak
They are cool, wish hasbro didn't screw up my orders.
my Silverstreak fell off my dresser landed on the back and it was still good as new is qc isn’t a linear spectrum then idk what is
Glad to hear it survived.
Mutant Tigatron and Hoist representing the "Irish Squad" in Transformers 💪💪
Where's the white on Tigatron?
I must get that Tigatron. Even though the character's original design is cool, the mutant head just speaks more to me.
Interesting. It is a cool head. At least it doesn't have the puffy cheeks.
*Is it just me, or does the color of SG Blurr's chest/windshield look like a prescription medicine bottle.*
It does, and that may be what I'm thinking of.
You and Spector Creative doing a repaints video on the same day. Awesome.
Never heard of this person before.
I prefer the original tigatron over the mutant version, both because the mutant version gets rid of a couple stripes that the retail version had, and mine came with a qc issue where the pin that rotates the shoulder kibble didn't go in all the way at the factory, which blocks the beast head from tabbing in and finishing the alt mode. I can live with it but it is annoying. Shattered glass blurr does have some good colors but it's still the ss86 mold, so I can't justify an extra $10 even if it comes with a comic. I'm instead going to focus on the idw blurr coming out in the velocitron line. My silverstreak actually has better qc than my bluestreak, but I guess that means I just got lucky. I saw the sharkticon kos on showz for a good price but then I saw that they were like 2 inches. I got skywarp a few days ago and I think it's just ok. The tolerances are weird, its molded entirely in black plastic which I think is dumb, the forearms and waist could've been molded in purple plastic, while that would've made the waist the wrong color, at least its a different color from the rest of the black. I only like the transformation, the articulation is very limited even for a core class figure, jet mode is pretty good, though every time I see the fake nosecone at the bottom of the jet it annoys me. I don't care about faux parts most of the time but for this figure I think its one of the worst examples of it. Also got buzzsaw, pretty much fixes every problem I had with waspinator. Didn't get shattered glass starscream, even before the yellowing became a known issue I skipped it because I prefer the ER mold. I'm a pretty big fan of repaints, I have 6 versions of the siege sideswipe mold and I'm still prepared to get velocitron clampdown and shattered glass sideswipe whenever that comes out. Also ready to get hauler which would be my third version of the grapple mold.
I prefer that as well my self.
Totally understandable, it is just a Deluxe after all.
What problems did you have with the Waspinator, because I find the build is just about the exact same.
@@PerspectiveEnd waspinator had looser joints and while it looks accurate it also doesn't look as interesting as buzzsaw, so in a weird way that makes buzzsaw slightly more fun. The bug legs are also less noticeable
You must've gotten a not so good silverstreak because when i got mine i checked the one that had the best paint and join tolerance
I've gotten lots of messages from people who've had similar experiences to me.
Would you say the smokescreen or the silverstreak has a better chance of breaking
I've heard more tale of Smokescreen breaking but I will say that Silverstreak feels worse in my hands.
I put my sg Starscream into a drawer and took him out and damn he yellowed baaaaad so I think your right
Yeah, because it does not seem to be light doing the job.
My silverstreaks back got cracked and i only transformed it for 5 times atleast its not that broken
I'm sorry to hear that but that lines up with the stuff I've heard and experienced.
You like the light piping?!? Where is perspective and what did you do to him?!?
This is the exception that proves the rule.
4:12 the Yellow windshield on blue reminds me of the old lego space aesthetic. I didn’t even grow up with it but it still feels nostalgic to me.
I don't think I ever had any lego Space Ships.
Blur's windshield reminds me so much of Armada Sideswipe...
A bit yeah, thought that's not the thing I'm thinking of I'm sure.
Loved the video idea. At firsy I thought this was going to be WTB repaint
I can see why you'd expect that.
Titans Return Gnaw probably does a better job for legends scale
Probably yeah.

Man... Why are my stasts so Shit? Like did I choose to not just use a bunch of points by Draining Luck? Cause I should have a lot more Perception and Charaisma? I'm Called PerspectiveEnd! Where's my Perception?
@@PerspectiveEnd luckily you found a special armor piece that Increases perception by 3 but drains lick by 2
What sucks about my Buzzsaw is that it broke on the bughead. The clear plastic was super fragile on my figure. Which sucks 😭I was so excited for this figure
Couple thoughts.
Mutant Tigatron: I'ma repurpose him into an OC whose basically Shere Khan as a Predacon.
SG Blurr: I want an IDW Fasttrack from this mold.
Sharkticons: inbred dwarves they be. :P
Skywarp: puny porter. :P
Buzzsaw: meh, I'd rather have Buzzbomb (Theft Of The Golden Disk).
SG Screamer: repurpose him into Seeker Jetfire.
Someone else also came up with that Shere Khan Idea.
Man IDW Fastrack is so different.
Inbred is the key word.
What?
Who is Buzzbomb?
I mean isn't that basically what he is?
@@PerspectiveEnd Look up Theft Of The Golden Disk, sirrah.
Interesting video PE, wouldn’t mind seeing more if these in the future. I love the hell out of SG Starscream, but yeah mine yellows in the same spots. Lately I’ve been using a white paint marker to go over the yellowing spots to some decent success. Personally I’d give the recommendation for the SG Megatron, great colors too and it technically being a triple changer now.
I have been interested in the Mutant Tigatron before, just looks cool to me but hasn’t been a priority
Yeah that sounds like a good idea to paint it. As for the SG Megs it was sold out when I went to buy it.
Totally understand why it's not a priority.
random issue but i had to rant about it somewhere, why in the fuck is the SS86 Starscream’s head molded out of blue plastic and off tinted grey, it’s like they wanted the blue to show through scratches and wanted you to be unable to fix it with color matching. to the point where i took the head off my broken siege thundercracker, broke it in half, blacked out the light piping, and painted the eyes red, and now starscream looks badass but he can’t wear his crown anymore
I didn't know his head was that way. Yeah that's lame. Then again that whole copy of the figure is lame.
@@PerspectiveEnd honestly, but its also the only official modern rendition of his earth mode
2:18 Guess so, I’ve listened to your content so many times that I thought you slowed down the voice audio.
2:17 my brother calls you Transformer reviewer Eminem
I don't know why I get such a cool nick name.
I think i might get some of the figures also the boy skit is amazing.
Thank you. I knew I had to do a call back.
Yeah your speed is just normal and now I start to talk really fast
I'm so powerful I make those around me faster.
1:04 he looks really cool. Everything but the face.
I don't know, I like the face.
Finally some SG reviews, even if it a couple mini reviews
I mean they aren't really changed. If I got the Megatron it would probably have worked out to it's own review since he's got a new "Altmode" finger quotes.
