    As someone who is interested in engineering, I've always loved transformers. The idea that you can take a car/boat/plane/ect. and turn it into a robot is just so cool to me. Especially when it comes to the triple changers and the six changers. Sure, some of the modes aren't pretty especially on the earlier figures, but just the fact that someone was able to get 6 modes out of one figure will always be impressive to me (even if 1 or 2 of the 6 modes feel like just an "in between" mode that just kinda happened).

    • @Violetlsdoingokay
      @Violetlsdoingokay 4 года назад +6

      I agree. I'm actually quite impressed. The modes actually look better than I anticipated them to be. The guy's not the prettiest transformer out there, but it works. Definitely one of my favorite g1 figures mostly because of the engineering that went into him.

    • @cujoedaman
      @cujoedaman 4 года назад

      Quick Switch reminds me of the original G1 Broadsides. Granted he was only a small triple changer, but literally an aircraft carrier with two stubby arms and no legs, just a huge hunk of plastic and metal with fold out wings for an absolutely terrible plane mode. I miss ridiculous G1 figures sometimes :P

  • @TribalSpider13
    @TribalSpider13 4 года назад +19

    Quickswitch was Sixshot's "son", burdened with the task of making up for his "father's" mistakes. Though Getaway mistook him for a Decepticon upon first seeing him, Quickswitch displayed his true loyalties by making short work of both Horri-Bull and Snaptrap. old tv add and the Transformers Wiki

    • @theredprime
      @theredprime Год назад

      I wanna remake that idea for lore purposes. Quickswitch isn't his *biological* son. Sixshot just called him his son since their both six changers and Quickswitch was based off Sixshot. Quickswitch then joins the autobots after seeing how evil his *father* really is.

    My opinion on every mode:
    Robot: could be worse
    Hovercraft: quite decent
    Pistol: actually not too shabby
    Puma: nice try, but this mode definetly suffers
    Drill tank: best alt mode so far (for me anyway)
    Jet: better than the puma at least

    • @tycol322
      @tycol322 4 года назад +4

      For me the low two are pistol and puma.
      The jet works pretty decently for a g1 multiformer.
      Tank I agree is the best.
      Puma is horrid but that's at for g1. Hover craft is passable.
      The pistol is just the hover craft flipped over.
      And the robot mode is wierd but functional.

    Someone should seriously make an MP version of this one, and make him look way better, because there are enough versions of Sixshot, and he needs an Autobot of compatible skills to oppose him.

    I remember this figure. I think I picked him up at a garage sale maybe in 1989 or 1990. He really signaled the end of The G1 Transformers for me. I didn't know he had six modes, no matter what I did with him, he just looked helpless. For the most part, G1 had alt modes that kids recognized, and could transform their characters into. Half the fun was completing the alt mode without instructions. There was nothing recognizable about Quickswitch (I didn't even know that was his name until this video)

  • @cujoedaman
    @cujoedaman 4 года назад

    Wow, totally obscure Dinosaurs reference. Never thought I'd here that one again. That being said, seeing the box would have made it more disappointing to see the real figure because, like early console and PC game box art (I'm talking Atari and 386 games), the boxes made it look much more epic that the contents really were, so I think a paper towel tube is perfect for this reveal :D

Sixshot had dud modes too but since his robot mode looks badass you can ignore the others.
