What's this? A rope with string and a little cage accessory? Actual toy-like features on a Transformers toy? In 2024? Did I wake up in a parallel dimension today?
I thought the same thing!
Sandstorm is not trying to flash the bird. He is giving the Decepticon noogeies!
That too
3:46 So, it turns out that almost, if not every single figure that has a closed fist is molded to have the middle finger slightly raised as a sort of "copyright" protection measure in the sense that only the original Hasbro produced molds would have said detail, or something along those lines. It is however much more subtle than on Sandstorm most of the time, the other notable example would be Kingdom Galvatron who also has it prominently raised.
a subtle way of giving the middle finger to bootlegers
But why can't the bootleggers just... Replicate that?
@@hanhong2267 I have no idea honestly, I would be lying if I said there is a reason they wouldn't be able to replicate it
Edit: I think the whole point actually is to track down bootlegs, the kinds that change the name but use the exact same sculpts with some modifications ala baiwei for example, if they retain the raised finger it's a way for Hasbro to prove that the tooling was originally done by them, how this applies for open hand sculpts I have no clue
I feel like it wouldn’t look as odd and would make more sense if they molded the hands to have the index finger raised a bit rather than the middle finger. Not that I really have a problem with how it is now, but it would probably look better 🤷♂️
@@lordzeroevilfloatingeye I don't see why they would need to prove it when literally the whole design of the bootlegged figure is ripped from the original, but I do find this idea interesting
Sandstorm giving the middle finger? He's really "Darude"
I can hear the song playing in my head
@@Yeetus-yc1vyforever it will play in your head
Groan!!!!
High-five!
Nice
*In the Autobot meeting*
Optimus - Alright who is Sandstorm?
Mirage - Da rude one
Ultra Magnus: 🤦♂️
Sandstorm: you betrayer me mirage!!!
I'm gonna be honest, I'm perfectly happy with the Thrilling 30 Sandstorm from a literal decade ago.
HOWEVER! I am four minutes into this video, and I am now seriously considering getting this figure solely because of the subtle Middle Finger.
The only thing that could fit in that cage would be a minicon
We finally have a Legacy G1 Triple changer for Sandstorm.
Nice to see you review my favorite triple changer. Keep up the awesome work Emgo!!
Emgo is great!
These videos are better instructions than the actual paper instructions in the box.
Ngl Emgo really threw me for a loop when he said he was refusing to show us the articulation. Watching like 15 years of toy reviews and then just getting that out of nowhere is hilarious.
Emgo I love your reviews. I found this guy for 25$ today for memorial day weekend. In that honor he will be repaint in true ch- 58 sea dragon colors. You brought my attention to his finger. It's for the blackout comparison . I also mistransform his tail for a better look in heli mode.
The middle finger bit made me genuinely laugh😂
Man this boy looks so good. Makes me wanna start collecting mainline again.
It's neat that some of the helicopter mode windows become taillights for the dune buggy mode.
The robot mode is pretty spot on IMO.
I think it's the dune buggy mode that suffered the most.
That being said, it's still leagues better as a triple changer than Astrotrain or Blitzwing.
It could be the middle finger could be a sign they wanted to make his hands have articulation similar to the kind Jhiaxus had but scrapped it last second 😂
The humor in these reviews never fails to amuse me. Despite some strange design choices still looks like a really fun Transformer to play around with and swap between modes. Unfortunate the bot mode has to be the weakest but still a decent enough update and well worth adding to the collection. Excited for him to arrive in June. Now waiting on a legacy War Criminal Leader Octane.
I've noticed the middle finger molding on a lot of my transformers actually, it just seems a lot more prominent on this sculpt lol, I think another example would be legacy galvatron
Great review as always! God bless you and yours! Praying for you.
Love the review emgo. Keep up the great work. You make things fun and informative. Just like Emgo316 always does.😊
Thanks so much!
It's sort of strange that they wouldn't have the winch fit on the front bumper that would've been nice if they did
I had real issues with buggy mode & had trouble getting it to roll until i see Emgo transform it correctly with the blades pushed in & the "cap" covering them. Now it's perfect! 😂
Need this figure NOW.
Another fantastic review, ur an amazing RUclipsr Emgo love all ur videos. And the iconic box throws 😂
I *NEED* to get this guy and Gears *ASAP!*
Thank you EmGo! Loving the friendship between Octane and Sandstorm!
4:00 that middle finger is obviously for Rodimus Prime.
I guess the cage can rescue headmasters and prime masters and such. I can't think of who would be the third triple changer for the bots. The cons have Octane, Blitzwing, and Astrotrain originally. I like the cage in the back of the buggy. Toyhax will probably fix the unpainted windows.
It would be Broadside.
@@misanthropologist The aircraft carrier...thanks.
like that flying guillotine kung fu flick
Character pics, are we experiencing EmgoVOLUTION?
We love you man (in the normal total respect way not in the hiding in your driveway late at night way just to talk to a rockstar 😅)
I revisit this and I can tell why I liked his vids so much he truly is the best toy reviewer
Emgo commenting on the quality of the string is exactly like Sokka in Avatar saying "Hey, this is some quality rope!"
As Triple Changes go which are norturous for having one mode being very compromised, I have to admit Hasbro have done a great job with Sandstorm, I would go so far to say he is the best Triple Changer yet...
I would ask I wish people would stop comparing Hasbro with 3rd Party...
The 3rd Party do not have to consider mass production and have a much highee price point..
If Hasbro where willing to sell Leader Class for similar prices to 3rd Party companies, I'm pretty sure they would match or even better them.
I I've watched this channel since childhood even before the planet X genesis which was 10 years ago nice to see him as active as ever
I need this in my collection. He looks really good.
I get there going to g1 vibes and that’s nothing wrong with it but, the comic book version of sandstorm is my personal favorite.
Sand Storm looks good
I wasn't expecting Sandstorm to be Leader Class, but damn, I want him in my collection
Sandstorm...triple-changing king of the noogie!
That is one sweet looking chopper more. The Generations Sandstorm is cool and everything, but this one is definitive.
This looks like a fun figure. Definitely on my 'to get' list.
Just about every other mainline Generations Transformer since Kingdom has skewed toward the animation (culminating in Animated Bumblebee and Optimus), now Sandstorm comes along with his toy head guaranteeing that he will stand out from the rest. This is the reason he is low key giving us the bird 😏
Bizarrely, the G1 toy did a better job on the buggy mode 😂
Having the metal finger stuck out in a fest like that also increases the chances of doing damage because if you hit somebody with that in the chest you can actually crack and or break their ribs and God forbid you give them a shot like that to the temple its lights out permanently
Beautiful cameo from ALAN there.
a broadside update would be nice too. 🤔
The g1 toy has the most functional triple changer mode...
Cool to see they managed ti recapture its magic
Looks noice!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤
Now we need new "Transformers" figures for Broadside & Octane
I was hopping to see the legacy Decepticon Triple-changer version of Octane.
This guy is one of the few triple changers that I am legit interested in buying
The mere fact that ALL THREE MODES look genuinely good, even the weakest mode, was enough for me to buy this guy! And after waiting nearly a whole month…I can say Sandstorm is awesome! The main propeller in copter mode doesn’t really spin as freely on mine, but it does spin! I just have to keep my finger on one of the plastic blades and turn it manually, so thankfully it’s not difficult to spin. (I can still easily use it in stop motion!) And maybe as I keep playing with it, the rotor might loosen up! But either way, while it might be slightly disappointing that the main rotor doesn’t spin as freely, it’s not a deal breaker! (Plus, it’s most likely just my copy, and it still can spin pretty easily, even if not as freely as the small propeller, or the wheels!) and besides all that, it’s still an awesome toy in my book!👍👍👍
He looks like he's going on a long hike and planning on camping, I kinda like it
Gave the 50th like baby!
No comparison made with the Thrilling 30 Sandstorm? Would have been nice to see this one alongside the last mainline representation of the character
New Geek episode!!! Let’s Gooooo
As much as I like the different take the T30 version had with the Armored Car/VTOL mode I am super happy to see Sandstorm get updated with his G1 modes as well.
Upscale it, fill in the gaps, change the upper arms to yellow and I'd happily have this an MP Sandstorm.
"A storm is coming" 😂😂😂
I was half expecting an April fools vid where he immediately changes the figure halfway through to someone else
I don’t do April fools videos.
Eat my dust!
think i’m gonna wait for the more cartoon accurate version but he looks like a fun figure
I like the Helicopter mode. Makes me wish we got a G1 style Blackout to go with Earthrise Barricade.
Personally, I would like it if the tail end of the helicopter folds away into the backpack, and the head sculpt is different. But that’s just because I don’t really like the g1 sandstorm design that much, and rather prefer the voyager sandstorm from 2013, the vtol wings on the back make it very cool.
7:01 DID YOU JUST REFERENCE THE DOOZER GRADUATION SONG!?!?
I've always wondered if Transformers with Radically different sized Alt modes could retain the size of the Alt mode in robot mode cause a helicopter is way bigger then a dune buggy. could be why no one notices Laser beak is cause he's actually the size of a cassette tape when spying.
Both Sandstorm and Whirl were always odd ones because if they origin as Dorvak toys.
Partsformers more Parts then meets the Eye, also damn Hollow the Boy !!
Awesome figure, i cannot wait to find him. But i got to nitpick, Sandstorm looks like he has the Autobot equivalent of RBF..
Ok who is that decepticon in the skit part?? I really like his robot mode design.
Based on Hasbros Hasbroing as of Kate I think we all know we are going to get another release with a different head sculpt in a different sub line
21:34 well I'll be honest misunderstood is a part of a third dimensional villian
I really wasn't playing on getting this figure. But the middle finger thing kind of saved it So now I I want One
If I collected Legacy, I’d be excited about this guy. Heli and bot mode are great.
I'm still waiting for a new release of G1 Octane. I loved that character
Have you checked out Cang Toys/Trans Age Hunting Shadow (Huntpow)? That's probably the best looking and most realistic triple changer I've ever seen. It transforms from a Trumpchi Empow car to a Shenyang J-16 fighter jet and then to a leopard that looks like Ravage. Pretty sweet.
So is your Sandstorm’s chest not loose like all of the other reviews where it won’t stay tabbed in when you move his arms? Great reviews as always!
vast improvement over the unthrilling 30 version
Hes my favorite auto bot triple changer
Nice! Sandstorm vs. Blackout?
not sure anyone has noticed but this storm looks like Mashin Drilljan from the top to the head of Kirameiger with the crane there plus i like copter bots like the decepticon Cyclonus I wish they could do more Aramada line into the Legacy United line I’d love to have Cyclonus or Demolisher
This figure as his G1 counterpart was my first autobot I drew when I was younger...but sadly I lost that picture due to a storage issue....figures
Knuckle punch!
Ugh the backs of those legs are horrendous, but necessary for the copter mode I guess....
4:00 maybe it's to tease tf1 😅
The chest won’t stay pegged in on mine. Annoying.
Also whenever I try to move his waist, the mushroom peg tries to fall apart. The only thing stopping it is there’s no room for it to come all the way off with the bottom of his chest hanging in front of it.
This and the gray piece that's supposed to peg down when in buggy mode. Super annoying.
When a triple changer is designed, one mode is always compromised. Honestly with the budget they've done really well to balance them all out.
I would say his buggy is the weakest, and the packaging is crafty showing a front on view to hide the kibble at the rear BUT it reminds me of the original toy so it kinda balances out. It has a good presence on the table and nice details all round.
His helicopter mode is beautiful and I love how it hides most of the buggy away. The little touches such as the pinstripe paint app and extra panels coming out to fill gaps ... lovely. I also like the little touch that you can push the rotors down to the body so they can pose in position rather than being loose.
Only issue with Robot mode are his legs, in robot mode they bend at the knee but really only in three set positions. fully straight, bent, fully bent.
The other issue is the rails used for his transformation, kinda scared he'll become loose and collapse over time, however it does really click in position nicely. still would have preferred if they folded out though.
Big plus points that each of his transformations are fun and easy enough to remember. Lose some points for having to keep the cage with him basically for buggy mode, plus points for the fantastic tangerine deco, really pops. Lose some points for the chest, mine does clip in nicely but you really have to fiddle with the engine block and head/neck area, then suddenly it just fits, but fits tight. And finally plus points for his awesome Motocross rider look in general, seriously he looks like he's dressed ready to do some jumps but with a backpack (maybe gonna do Dakar?). I'd love to see someone get him on Wreck Gar's bike mode.
Looks like a fan of Motorhead
Does his chestplate on your copy actually tab in when in robot mode? Mine and many others don't actually secure properly.
How?!?!? Wasn't it just announced a week ago?
BBTS got some in and shipped out pre-orders last week. I got mine on Thursday. I was shocked as well. BBTS hardly ever gets stuff in early.
It looks like hes suppressing the urge to flip someone off
one amazing legacy figure who turns into a dune buggy with rubber tires was awesome, but TWO! you spoil me hasbro, also his wheels look exactly like lego part 55981
Robot mode looks great from the front but too hollow at the back.
It would be awesome it they do an octane
This should have had the accurate head and i think the Autobot symbol should have had a white background/outline.
I guess his feet Do look like a kid wearing their parents flip flops which are way too big for their little feet 😅 side note EMGO.... The other day while at a light waiting on people to actually move I caught myself thinking out loud "Finally, Traffic Rolling Like Rolling things Should Roll"! Thanks bro, this isn't as bad as catching myself singing baby shark because of watching My nephews and nieces 😅.
Sandstorm is pretty sweet, chopper mode is my favorite. I love it even more at the voyager price. Target finally came through lol Be geek!
When I finally get my Sandstorm, I'm gonna get rid of that stupid orange noggin!!! Been waiting for ages for him and this is the stunt they pull on us! Anyway, hopefully the next triple changer we get is Octane. I already have him legends scale but want to get the Hasbro one to complete my triple changerHasbro set. Broadside does not count. He is the equivalent of Duplo to Hasbro's Lego...
As much as I like this update, I hope one day they make a version of him with the dune buggy alt mode replaced with a more appropriately scaled vehicle for his size.
I hope this means we get Sureshot some point in the future.
