    Kup was one of the best characters in the movie. And now to find out he was voiced by Max from Hart to Hart, incredible. Thanks for the review!

    Kup would probably say " don't mock me on being old, with age comes an understanding that the wisdom and advice you give others is just as important a legacy to leave behind as that of great deeds that are accomplished for society sake".

    Kup gets better with age. I don't have my original anymore but proud to have the Studio Series 86 Kup now. Don't forget Michael, Kup knows Japanese as seen in the season 3 episode which is one of my personal favorites of the third season, "The Burden Hardest to Bare"

    Great video as per usual. I got Kup myself a few months before seeing the movie. It was the first time I saw 86 toys on a store shelf and just really liked the look of him. I was later thrilled when he had such a big roll in the movie(once I got over the trauma of watching almost my entire collection die on screen that is). He would later be joined Ultra Magnus, Metroplex, Springer, Rodimus Prime(because my Optimus broke a leg shortly after his onscreen and comic book death), and Pipes, Tailgate, Swerve, Outback and Wheelie(because I loved minibots). At age twelve it was my last year collecting Transformers toys(Though I got Sixshot as a Christmas present the following year), so my 86 crew were retired with honor at the end of "my Cybertronian wars". I held out hope for a Powermaster Optimus Prime to stand on my shelf with them but he would not arrive until years later when my interest in Transformers was resurrected as an adult. Good ole Kup though? Still in really good condition, weapon included, and standing beside my reissue Hot Rod where he belongs. (With just a little wear that adds to his character.) 'Til all are one!

  • @TonySalazar933
    @TonySalazar933 3 года назад +2

    I know Kup gets a lot of grief especially for his G1 toy but I was one of my favorites growing up. I'm a sucker for "futuristic" alt modes and he was easy to transform.

    Ah, Heart to Heart, used to watch that a lot back in the mid 90s when the original fX network (before it became the FX of today) did nothing but repeat old 70s and 80s shows (they also had a morning news show featuring Tom Bergeron and a puppet named Bob as well as Phil Keoghan of The Amazing Race and Suzanne Whang of House Hunters among others). It's also where I would watch a lot of Fall Guy, Green Hornet, Wonder Woman and Batman.

    The UK didn't get the movie until December so my first exposure to Kup was in Marvel UK's Target: 2006 when he, Hot Rod and Blurr (displacing Shockwave, Frenzy and Thundercracker into Limbo) went back in time to force Galvatron, Cyclonus and Scourge back to the future.

    I love Kup he's such a good character he's just one of the better old timers, you would've expected his personality to be like Gears (When we first saw him first in 86 well I did anyway) although he's genuinely one of the funnier characters, the point is Kup is just excellent.

    Not sure if this conflates with the comic or not, but it's just what I assumed with some of the other post-movie characters...

      Michael Mercy, between you and the guy from The Basics, you make my son and mines weekends fun watching and learning about the toys, cartoons, and comics I grew up with as a child. You do it in a way where I can relearn things and be nostalgic while at the same time it keeps my son interested in what he calls 'stuff from the 19s'. We always look forward to new videos of yours coming out and we always enjoy watching them on the weekends when we aren't in the middle of an outdoor activity. We even listen to your GI Joe year-by-year history anthologies while on road trips.
