Yeah I agree, bayverse is the best transformers studio series figures, I just hope figures are more available because I couldn’t find any studio series Optimus prime or ratchets and of course iron-hide anywhere, they re-released ss 44 Optimus and he basically didn’t show anywhere and we haven’t even had demolisher, a protoform I really want a breakaway figure for the concept line
Seriously!!!! I’m so tired of 86 and BumbleBee/ Rise of the Beasts. I want an actual white variant of Demolishor, and Payload to finish off the Constructicons. Perhaps even a variant of Buckethead to give Devastator a more accurate left hand.
The toy designers said multiple times, even live on stream when presenting him on Hasbro Pulses channel, that they will rerelease him in the main studio series line. They are only allowed to give off a limited amount of studio series figures usually at once, but that rules doesn't count for exclusive lines. So by making him exclusive they could sell more ROTB characters than they otherwise could have done. Just have patience. The japanese studio series line by takara tomy also started to sell him again. It's just a matter of time for the rest of the world.
They said that he will get a normal SS release, but they never said when, they just said at some point, probably soon. I need him so badly, & I really hope he comes out in maybe like March-May this year. He looks like an absolute masterpiece (Not literally MP/MPM. lol), or at least very close! The only problem I have is the small gun (I like the gun from the movie, but the SS version is too small), but its fine & I'd probably give him KingRise Optimus's Ion Blaster with extension (Rog/Red Cog extension piece, grey one with 5mm post on 1 end, 3 mm on the other) or the Reactivate Optimus's (If/when I get him) Ion Blaster, if RotB Optimus need more fire power. The Energon blade looks sick, the Axe from Primal looks great (I want Primal too), the paint, the transformation, the sculpting, everything! He looks PERFECT!
Happy New Year PVP from Leeds!!! You're the best Transformers reviewer out there and I hope 2024 is an exceptional year for you! SS102 was a great release but could've been flawless had they sorted out that hideous truck bed.
PvP, just for the record, mirages clear plastic actually holds up really well. I knocked one of my shelves down on top of him, should’ve smashed him to bits if the clear plastic didn’t hold up, but he took no damage at all (except that really thin piece of bumper detailing on the back of the backpack)
I think my number 1 would have to be Ultra Magnus, followed by Scourge and Prime, then RotB Bumblebee, and Nightbird. Gamer edition was a pretty disappointing for me. I sold all mine off. Great video man. I love seeing everyone’s personal favorites
All said and done in less than 15 minutes. Impressive. Never had a shot a finding ROTB Prime so really hoping he gets a mass release next year. Exceptional figure though the premium edition first movie release is still very good for a SS release. Mirage has kibble issues but other that I ended up liking him a lot more than Nightbird which feels slightly out of scale next to both the Porsche, and Camaro. Really need to pick up Battletrap to round out the Decepticons if he ever restocks. 86 Ultra Magnus made my number one of the year. Finally after all these years and updated attempts a definitive G1 Ultra Magnus in the collection.
Here's what I'm hoping for 2024: 1. Rotb Arcee getting a deluxe figure 2. FOC and AOE Dinobots get toys 3. For Hasbro to Approach Transformers Prime Predacons Rising (And I honestly wouldn't mind if they just rereleased the old figures from the old Transformers Prime toylines)
To me both 2022 and 2023 were the peak years of Studio Series, we’ll see if 2024 will one up them?! Definitely my favourite SS last year was GE WFC Optimus when my least favourite was the GE WFC Megatron.
@@youtubepunisher8695, they have been great for most parts it is just sometimes a few of their figures have been misses but most TF figs have been hits recently.
I think the future SS figure I'm looking for the most is Swoop. I really want to complete the Dinobots. I will probably pose them with my DVD that just contains Dinobot featured G1 Episodes.
I recently just got Nightbird and what I like to do with her wings is angle them all the way to the front near the back of her head. It makes the figure look less awkward and kind of fills the backpack ever so slightly.
Another great year for SS! Can't wait for the Pablo and Mohawk reviews and also pumped for SS24 with the 86 Dinobots finally getting completed and Bayverse making a slow but steady return. Personally I think for next year you should rank the core class amongst themselves because there are definetly some that are better than others
For me Magnus, GE Prime, and Snarl would be top three, they are far less compromised compared to anything else on the list and they have little to no issues. GE Megatron would also be higher up there as he’s very accurate to the game and does exactly what he was supposed to (once you get rid of those useless knee tabs). I ended up picking up a ton more studio series this year then I normally do and I’m glad they have expanded out past the bayverse because SS86, GE, and the BBM stuff has all been great and definitely lives up to the studio series name. Can’t wait for this years releases, especially more GE stuff and finally completing the dinobots.
Ultra Magnus (86) and (GE: WFC) Optimus Prime were both great figures, I am still a little annoyed with myself for not picking up (86) Snarl. The (GE: WFC) Megatron was alright to me but felt like they could’ve done more seeing as he’s a voyager class.
I honestly hope that they do a SS 86 Devastator or a Gamer Edition Bruticus soon since Starscream just showed his glow up so I hope Bruticus can get his. I WOULD GO FOR OMEGA ANY DAY NOW HASBRO
Hey prime, great video. Can't wait for what the new year will bring us. 86 commander prime, or maybe a Voyager/Leader Lockdown? Either way this year will be a great 40th for transformers.🎉
With Mirage, they HAD to focus on the vehicle mode due to it being officially licensed by Porsche. It's unfortunate, but maybe they'll release an F1 race car variant since he technically did turn into one in ROTB.
Rise Of The Beasts is my favorite SS line and I really want to get Optimus Prime and Optimus Primal so bad but Optimus Primal is my favorite in 2023 and next is gotta be Wheeljack/Pablo really hype for that
@@PrimeVsPrime no! The figures have crappy availability lol We need studio series tf prime and way more bayverse even a re-release 32 or 44 prime again cause literally I don’t know anyone in my whole city and other cities surrounding my area that have home either from that toy guy and tfanpage
I don't agree with core classes being left behind. Yes its a low price point but it all comes to how well its executed. I maybe am just biased because i just handled ss mohawk. I was really surprised by that thing. Turned out to be quite a banger. Has good plastic, non floppy joints, head has jaw articulation, they gave a weapon that was not in the film and serves as stabilizer for alt mode so the bike is upright. Hope you review him soon.
0:00 I infinitely agree that the core class figures sucks. Minicons as minifigures make sense in terms of size comparison to voyager figures AND it is something I can accept, but voyager characters minifigures not only too small in comparison but also limiting the pose ability and flexibility, ESPECIALLY in the ankle pivot.
Yo for ss rotf Soundwave, all they needed to do was just make his satellite mode more accurate and not give him a robot mode because that is what ruined the figure in the first place, and he could’ve been scaled up to a voyager! They could’ve also included him with a small satellite, added some light piping to the eyes, better paint job, and then gave him the small wires he used to hack the satellite in rotf. Overall this would have made for a dope and unique studio series figure..
Interesting list! I have made a list of transformers I want to get this year! #1 Ratchet (BBMSS)✔️ #2 Brawn (BBMSS) ✔️ #3 Mirage (SSROTB) #4 Scourge (yolopark) #5 Optimus prime and Soundwave (Reactivate) #6 Soundwave (SSDCC2016) #7 Optimus prime (WFC gamer edition) #8 Cliffjumper (BBMSS) #9 Optimus prime (SSROTB) #10 Code red (collaborative Target exclusive) Extra: Legacy G2 Sideswipe, Toxitron, ER Netflix Optimus prime, SSROTB Bumblebee, mainline ROTB Airrazor, Netflix Bee, Legacy animated Optimus prime, Legacy animated Bumblebee, Armada legacy Optimus prime, CW Devastator, legacy Clampdown. I may not complete this list in time. And I might buy them out of order.
I think you were too harsh on SS WFC Megatron. Hes better than you think. I don't have him, but hes not that bad. Besides the stupid knee stopper things & the slightly too small Fusion Cannon, hes actually pretty good. & I don't think Megatron in the game actually had the fold up treads, I think he was just a hover tank, so ofc the SS figure won't have that feature cuz it technically wasn't accurate to the game model & SS prioritizes accuracy, cuz thats kinda the point of the series. & the paint is pretty good. The only real problem with him would probably be his size, he might be a little too small. I have never played the game, but I think its true, that he was always a hover tank. So, you might want to reassess him a little. & I really hate the SS Cheetor cat mode with a burning passion, it looks nothing like a cat. If you wanted a cat-former, then your best bet is Netflix Cheetor or RotB Mainline (I don't have SS or Mainline, but the mainline one's cat mode is great), or probably Kingdom Tigatron. Its not like Cheetahs are licensed, so theres no reason for him to look like a man on all fours with a bear head. The bot mode is quite good, apart from the butt flap & the paint/coloring. Cheetor, as you said, in the movie was a little more yellow. He wasn't orange, he was a gold-bronze-y color. If I were to get him, I'd probably keep him in Bot mode, cuz thats his best mode. The only SS RotB characters who have an amazing Beast mode are Rhinox & Optimus Primal. Besides that, I think your list is pretty fair. & when you said that all the Core Classes are Honorable Mentions, do you mean that all of them are good? & I REALLY need RotB Optimus! He looks PERFECT, or at least VERY close! The back of the truck isn't that bad, like it could be better, but its fine. I REALLY hope his normal release comes out VERY soon, cuz I NEED him!!
Facts hasbro should have waited till the final designs were available before rshing because now we’re stuck with concept art figures that go against the whole point of studio series and because they rushed concept art stuff took slots from bayverse stuff🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Man, I was so upset that I never got a chance to get 102 Optimus Prime, he looks so freaking cool, too bad that he is WAY to expensive for third party sellers like Amazon or Walmart
I agree with most of those, I would put Scourge lower since he seems to have qc problem with plastic backpack - hinge causes too much stress on it and causes stressmarks/breaks. Same for Optimus Prime - terrible shoulders, puny weapon, half-assed truck mode and being an exclusive. Primal and all maximals were amazing, truly stealing spotlight from autobots and terrorcons.
I was almost surprised to see ss conpect megatron as number one but either way prime and megatron are the best ss figures ever seen. plus I can’t wait to own two of ss figures soon 🔥🔥🔥🔥
What Hasbro should do is have a line based on redoing previous figures better, really the possibilities are endless. It could be as simple as re-doing WFC barricade entirely, giving him better ankles and articulation and folding up some of the kibble better, to going as far back as thrilling 30 springer and doing something similar. It's clear that every now and then, a studio series figure is rushed and suffers as a result, I think Hasbro know they could do better and tbh we deserve it. SS Stinger, Lockown, WFC Barricade, SS Airazor, possibly even Grimlock made a commander class. It would just be about giving figures a second look, and making improvements where needed, without putting another version in the same line, or waiting another decade for them to revisit the design. I doubt Hasbro would ever do it, but it makes sense to me, most figures have been out long enough to not immediately screw over people who bought the originals, especially if they go back to Thrilling 30. Could be called "Reformatted" or something like that.
On the topic of redos, we definitely NEED: -Lockdown -Stinger -Shatter (car) -BBM VW bee (great figure, but it's the concept art version) -Drift (Mercedes) -Sentinel Prime -Soundwave (Mercedes) -Blitzwing (BBM) -TLK Bee -Ratchet -Megatron (DOTM) -Barricade (07)
My hope is that with the 86 Dinobots finishing in 2024, we will FINALLY get the long awaited SS AOE Dinobots in 2025! Scorn or Strafe in early 2025 I hope!
Awesome video bud. 2023 has been a good year for Studio Series in my opinion. Also quick question, how long did it take for the Yolopark Scourge to arrive for you?
Great video once again. You never fail me. Pretty good ranking. For me 20- Barricade and 19- Mirage. Just bad bad figures. HNY and let us see what HasTak has for 2024. PS are you going to do the same for Legacy figures (two videos? One for the bad ones and one for the good ones)?
Man, I’ve been very let down by the Terrorcons this year. Nightbird and Scourge both disappoint me, and Battletrap really isn’t fun for me to transform. Mirage, on the other hand, sits relatively high for me. Despite the compromises, he feels like the designers tried as hard as they could and presents a good stab at the character with a good transformation and great alternate mode. I’m hoping a company comes along and makes an action figure style robot mode for him so that we get something screen accurate that’s still in scale with the rest of the Studio Series. Otherwise, great list! I personally would rank RotB Bee first, given the value as a deluxe versus the exclusive Voyager that Optimus is, but everyone thinks differently! Looking forward to a bit more variety this year.
I would put SS106 ROTB Primal as #1, SS86 Magnus as #2, and SS86 Snarl as #3. SS 100 ROTB Bee is #4, and SS102 ROTB Optimus Prime will be #5. As for the rest of the list, no complaints.
We need for Bay verse figures this year. We need Protoform Stascream, Cybertronian Stascream, FOKKER DR-1 Starscream 5 Cybetronian mode Autobots, 4 RotF concept art Primes toys
If they are doing concept arts studio series then we need studio series Transit it will be the first live action bus transformer so having it is a must
Two things I just want to get off my chest, one, I wish Scourge wasn’t so overpriced because he’s so cool qwp Two, where on GODS GREEN EARTH, is hound? 🤨
too be fair, old war for cybertron megatron is a concept before they decide to make it to a hover tank cause in the game, the treads don't fold when using the thrusters. it stayed hovering on the ground like an real tank did. and with brawl, he's a hover tank. i got my information's from That Toy Guy. but hey, an opinion is an opinion. continue the good work!
Yup and everyone will buy them all up and sell them online for triple as usual. Vast majority of my studio series collection was not found in retail stores.
i think Mirage and Air razer should be at least one spot higer, or maybe even share a spot, beucse they were major charecters, and i actually like there figures, and both there modes look good to me. let's not forget they sacrifsed thems elfs in the movie.
We NEED more Bayverse figures this year. It's kinda crazy that SS started with Bayverse and now we get nothing
True true, we need a Leader class Onslaught rn
Yeah I agree, bayverse is the best transformers studio series figures, I just hope figures are more available because I couldn’t find any studio series Optimus prime or ratchets and of course iron-hide anywhere, they re-released ss 44 Optimus and he basically didn’t show anywhere and we haven’t even had demolisher, a protoform I really want a breakaway figure for the concept line

SS Nightbird is my favorite in the studio series line
Just because she was my favorite character in the movie
She did have a neat design!
I bet you’re excited for Godzilla X Kong then! 🔥

It could be as simple as re-doing WFC barricade entirely, giving him better ankles and articulation and folding up some of the kibble better, to going as far back as thrilling 30 springer and doing something similar.
It's clear that every now and then, a studio series figure is rushed and suffers as a result, I think Hasbro know they could do better and tbh we deserve it. SS Stinger, Lockown, WFC Barricade, SS Airazor, possibly even Grimlock made a commander class.
It would just be about giving figures a second look, and making improvements where needed, without putting another version in the same line, or waiting another decade for them to revisit the design.
I doubt Hasbro would ever do it, but it makes sense to me, most figures have been out long enough to not immediately screw over people who bought the originals, especially if they go back to Thrilling 30. Could be called "Reformatted" or something like that.
On the topic of redos, we definitely NEED:
-Lockdown
-Stinger
-Shatter (car)
-BBM VW bee (great figure, but it's the concept art version)
-Drift (Mercedes)
-Sentinel Prime
-Soundwave (Mercedes)
-Blitzwing (BBM)
-TLK Bee
-Ratchet
-Megatron (DOTM)
-Barricade (07)
My hope is that with the 86 Dinobots finishing in 2024, we will FINALLY get the long awaited SS AOE Dinobots in 2025! Scorn or Strafe in early 2025 I hope!
For me the main thing that determines whether or not a transformers figure is good, is the back of the robot mode
I'm sad because I never found Scourge, Primal, or Snarl ever in stores at all. Only ones I'm missing and I fear I never get them.
I know it's not really studio series, but the reactivate toys are really worth to see on like a top figures of the year
Awesome video bud. 2023 has been a good year for Studio Series in my opinion.
Also quick question, how long did it take for the Yolopark Scourge to arrive for you?

hey dude really enjoy your content. im curios what blade did you use for the yolopark Optimus prime thank you!!
Thank you very much! They were from the APC Toys Optimus Prime
Do you do rankings for thr Legacy figures? That'd be awesome because Evolution was pretty good this year.
Great video once again. You never fail me. Pretty good ranking. For me 20- Barricade and 19- Mirage. Just bad bad figures. HNY and let us see what HasTak has for 2024.
PS are you going to do the same for Legacy figures (two videos? One for the bad ones and one for the good ones)?
Hope you have a good year PVP!
Man, I’ve been very let down by the Terrorcons this year. Nightbird and Scourge both disappoint me, and Battletrap really isn’t fun for me to transform. Mirage, on the other hand, sits relatively high for me. Despite the compromises, he feels like the designers tried as hard as they could and presents a good stab at the character with a good transformation and great alternate mode. I’m hoping a company comes along and makes an action figure style robot mode for him so that we get something screen accurate that’s still in scale with the rest of the Studio Series.
Otherwise, great list! I personally would rank RotB Bee first, given the value as a deluxe versus the exclusive Voyager that Optimus is, but everyone thinks differently! Looking forward to a bit more variety this year.
amazing! and i'm getting scourge from studio series from amazon that i ordered there
Oh wicked! I hope you like it!
@@PrimeVsPrime i will
Ngl i loved ss wfc megatron(i have the old one and i prefer the new one) btw i agree with your ranking the other figures .
I would put SS106 ROTB Primal as #1, SS86 Magnus as #2, and SS86 Snarl as #3.
SS 100 ROTB Bee is #4, and SS102 ROTB Optimus Prime will be #5.
As for the rest of the list, no complaints.
0:27 why did you use main line Pablo if u have the ss version?
I sense a Pablo coming
Very soon!🤓
We need for Bay verse figures this year. We need Protoform Stascream, Cybertronian Stascream, FOKKER DR-1 Starscream 5 Cybetronian mode Autobots, 4 RotF concept art Primes toys
What about the newest Studio Series Shockwave and Megatron from the Bumblebee movie? Those should be number 1
W Video and W ranking but will you ever do reviews on the DNA kits?
Thanks mate! & yes when they release👌🏻
I can’t wait for Megatron to come out next month!
I really hope they make a FOC bumblebee as a new mold with the REALLY BIG chest smaller
Very cool video primevsprime
I’m still left thinking: how did the make the waist joint? HOW DID THEY DO EVERYTHING WITH THE REMOVABLE TRUCK!? for the commander magnus
Ikr?! ultra Magnus was a very well engineered figure! 👌🏻🔥
My cliffjumper has terrible QC issues. I often times just take the backpack off for transformation.
Hasbro should keep reissueing all the studio series. It makes perfect sense for the consumer.
Nice list. I would agree with all of them if I was able to get some of them from my stores. LOL
I mostly agree except for war for Cybertron barricade and battle trap
WHEN is legacy united thundertron?
If they are doing concept arts studio series then we need studio series Transit it will be the first live action bus transformer so having it is a must
I really dont get the obsession with rotb bumblebee. Especially being higher than ultra magnus
Ultra Magnus is easily the best SS figure released this year but PvP has a clear bias towards bayverse/movieverse designs.
Brawn shouldve been higher and i disagree with a lot of the top 5 ranking 😬
I advocate for a remake of Age of Extinction stealth mode Bumblebee
Optimus Prime & Bumblebee will forever be at the top of everyone's lists, sadly. Too many of those two to count.
WE NEED JUSTICE FOR MY BOY STRATOSPHERE
@@Sirdilophosaurusthethird2.0 thats very nice.
Two things I just want to get off my chest, one, I wish Scourge wasn’t so overpriced because he’s so cool qwp Two, where on GODS GREEN EARTH, is hound? 🤨
too be fair, old war for cybertron megatron is a concept before they decide to make it to a hover tank cause in the game, the treads don't fold when using the thrusters. it stayed hovering on the ground like an real tank did. and with brawl, he's a hover tank. i got my information's from That Toy Guy. but hey, an opinion is an opinion.
continue the good work!
Thank you very much for checking it out! 🔥🔥🔥
@@PrimeVsPrime no problem!
I really like ge barricade even if he's a brick I still love him even at first glance promo
Images plus he's fun to transform imo
Hasbro did confirm that the Studio Series 102 Optimus Prime is getting a mass release. Finally.
Yup and everyone will buy them all up and sell them online for triple as usual. Vast majority of my studio series collection was not found in retail stores.
i think Mirage and Air razer should be at least one spot higer, or maybe even share a spot, beucse they were major charecters, and i actually like there figures, and both there modes look good to me. let's not forget they sacrifsed thems elfs in the movie.
can you make a compilation of all of your rankings?
I hope Arcee gets a deluxe this year, but I doubt it. I'll take a TLK Megs though
Imagine a three zero dlx rotb mirage that would be sick!
When will we see a wheel jack review? I saw him in the background
