The scooter is based of of the one that came with the Diaclone version of the original Skids toy that became Clutch, the drone to Skid's redesign Crosscut.
Yes but the original Micra I believe came with those little scooters (called a motocompo) in Japan in the 80's so you'd have some transportation in the city once you parked your car :P
@@ironman1181 yup.honda city. They also had a homfa city turbo I believe. Japan only, and came with that little compact motorcycle that fit in the trunk.
18:34 "Because he's precious!" Makes me spit out my drink every time. Love the reviews, and channel. It's my go-to for reviews (and laughs). Keep up the great work, sir!
This is the first 3rd party figure that really interests me. The vehicle mode is perfect and even includes the scooter the Diaclone toy had (and the actual Honda City as well)… and the transformation isn't ridiculously overcomplicated like it is with many 3rd party toys. WANT!
Skids was one of the first G1 dudes I picked up when I started collecting (albeit a reissue), so I have really been looking forward to seeing a review of it. And it looks really good! Thanks for the review!
I am the place in which sumthing has occurred. his name is skids. Think about it I am the place that has occurred Basically I have a skidmark. It's a joke ;-)
I think this version of Skids is better than the MP version. It use to be that the MP version was the best on the market and had the better QC for the most part, but the third party stuff has come a long way.
When Skids tries on the Michael Myers mask and it gets stuck! The engineering in the transformation is clever, especially in the leg sections. I really like the smokey plastic used for the glass bits.
Yep, I remember the crank handles. Never had to worry about possible having a window doing serious damage to your hand when it went up unless you stupid enough to keep your body part in the window and keep rolling it up (well,you might have had someone force you to keep it there while they tried to do you harm by rolling up the window rather than being stupid). Never saw a warning about windows possibly doing you physical harm when you had to physically roll up the windows. Now it's press a button and they roll up all on their own (well, motors roll them up). Also, remember trying to see how fast you could roll up or down the window? Someone farts and you're trying to get the window down in two seconds before you thow up in the car. Or you go past the dump or sewage treatment plant (or a dairy or pig farm) and you're trying to roll it up in two second before you throw up. And it always semed you never could manage that two seconds.
Hey Emgo! You've inspired me to review toys like you! Even though I just write my opinions and used stop motion... I also make webcomics! Say hi to Mascot for me!
Man, this looks nice. All it needs is a little figure of Charlene, that girl he became friends with for a couple of issues in the original comics. Would give the scooter someone to ride it too.
the whole is pretty good but I agree the head scuplt will have deserved to be a little more detailed as for the mouth I do not remember skid in the animated G1 so it may be well like that, but I liked that the scooter used to something in robot mode
4:14 I still have to do that on my truck 🤣🤣🤣🤣 And at 17:10 the bulge in the hood was to accommodate a turbocharger on the actual car, and by taking the raised bit off of the toy he transforms into a standard honda city, that kinda irks me a little bit
This is my first X-Transbots figure. He's pretty neat but I would have preferred they kept the raised section on the hood. It's weird they removed that.
I want those style collectors cards in the CHUG lines! If you're going to put them in, you might as well have all the profile and tech specs on there. The profiles are really what gave them a personality to me before the cartoon or comics were even out.
I can only think of IDW skids whenever I see any skids now. Except Movie skids, that one is an insult Also his mouth is doing the Tom Holland frog thing on this figure
Emgo u ever think about getting a shadow fisher's kits for ur mp-10 cause the top of the smoke stacks on your are wore out, i meant just as a suggestion. I have it on mine & i dig it.
This was made for the Skids fans... I'm sure they're both very happy
Yea me and DiamondBolt
and Thew
🥱
Amazing how they included the scooter that you get with the real car
The scooter is based of of the one that came with the Diaclone version of the original Skids toy that became Clutch, the drone to Skid's redesign Crosscut.
Yes but the original Micra I believe came with those little scooters (called a motocompo) in Japan in the 80's so you'd have some transportation in the city once you parked your car :P
Nevermind! Not the Micra. It was the Honda City
@@ironman1181 yup.honda city. They also had a homfa city turbo I believe. Japan only, and came with that little compact motorcycle that fit in the trunk.
Drive normally? What, you want his name to be 10-N-2 ? Speed Limit? Seat Belt?
This is an amazing transformer! The details like having SEATS AND A TRUNK in car mode is something I've never seen before.
Sad Pac-man, we meet again.
I'm now starting to see how very well the engineering and the G1 accurate they are

A new Emgo video makes a good day ever BETTER!
I'm super excited to get Crosscut version of this. That face is way better than skids and the silver looks awesome.
The Masterpiece Skids is awesome thank you for the video review Emgo.

I am the place in which sumthing has occurred. his name is skids. Think about it I am the place that has occurred Basically I have a skidmark. It's a joke ;-)
I like how they were able to make such a small red square as the Autobot symbol on his front grill. Nice review love your stuff .
I think this version of Skids is better than the MP version. It use to be that the MP version was the best on the market and had the better QC for the most part, but the third party stuff has come a long way.
Will wait for the Black & White recolor for that Your Under Arrest Look. Hope they do a X-over that include Miyuki & Natsumi from the anime.
Upper body transformation reminds me a lot of masterpiece Prowl
When Skids tries on the Michael Myers mask and it gets stuck!
The engineering in the transformation is clever, especially in the leg sections. I really like the smokey plastic used for the glass bits.
soo aweosme, you can't even tell that his undercarriage is a transformer :D he's here right now, he rolls so well

Second chorus, just like before-us
There is a new face with their Overheat.
The return of Sad Pac-Man always makes my day.
Hey Emgo! You've inspired me to review toys like you! Even though I just write my opinions and used stop motion... I also make webcomics! Say hi to Mascot for me!
I’m surprised skids only appeared in two episodes and in both he got badly injured
The way the mirrors flip into the body reminds me of Masterpiece Prowl, since he did that too
I love Savant more than official MP Skids, tbf
I like that 😁car like real open door
Man, this looks nice. All it needs is a little figure of Charlene, that girl he became friends with for a couple of issues in the original comics. Would give the scooter someone to ride it too.
Just got Surveillant from TFSource today. The face is much better on MX-17 R2; their version of Reboost.
Ummm no mention that skids is a Honda City turbo
not a car guy so I don't care lol
the whole is pretty good but I agree the head scuplt will have deserved to be a little more detailed as for the mouth
I do not remember skid in the animated G1 so it may be well like that, but I liked that the scooter used to something in robot mode
Thank you for this video.
Emgo every video: hooray for something
Me: hooray for hoorays
me: indeed
Another dope vid😎😎
4:14 I still have to do that on my truck 🤣🤣🤣🤣
And at 17:10 the bulge in the hood was to accommodate a turbocharger on the actual car, and by taking the raised bit off of the toy he transforms into a standard honda city, that kinda irks me a little bit

Love the color scheme
Wait if he is skids then where is mudflap heh see what I did there
He's busy on Cybertron.
Heh, see what I did there..?
yep

Mudflap? He's busy shelfwarming.
Alexei Galloway good one bro
There it is...wats wid the odr quite review...these are the coolest reviews there ever is...keep going geek
Nice
Honda city turbo II from 1985 with the scooter motocompo, nice.
Cept it's not a turbo, because flat hood.
you are right
I want those style collectors cards in the CHUG lines! If you're going to put them in, you might as well have all the profile and tech specs on there. The profiles are really what gave them a personality to me before the cartoon or comics were even out.
But prime! 😂😂😂😂😂
Deathsaurus!
Skids sounds like screamer in the skit
My left shoulder is lose
No one cares if you are first to comment, plus after a minute it is pretty impossible to prove. I know it is a thing, but please let it die.
Let it die! Let it die! Let it shrivel up and...come on who's with with me?
Now the end was just "PRIME"
I like my skids with a side of amnesia and natiua
这不是逮捕令里面的....小车和电动车么？
Not bad
Ha ha!! But priimme!!!
Cyberverse ultra class bumblebee
I can only think of IDW skids whenever I see any skids now. Except Movie skids, that one is an insult
Also his mouth is doing the Tom Holland frog thing on this figure
Emgo, will you be reviewing the WeiJiang and/or Black Mamba Grimlock?
Great review. Would you know anything about what's going on with Fanstoys hoodlum and hydra?
I still can't look at Savant's face without thinking "Tell me, Mr. Anderson, what good is a phone call if you're unable to speak?"
Ok, so my knowledge on Skids is a bit lacking. What's up with the scooter?
Are you able to do a Shattered glass Optimus Prime please
cool
His vehicle mode looks like a Honda I can't remember what it's called I just remember it from Gran Turismo
It is a Honda City I believe it's called. G1 mold was a Diaclone originally, used licensed vehicles for the line.
I've known this car as the honda jazz, my mom had one way back when
Rest Well, Soldier.... -ratchet to skids of nova cronium in the dying of the light
More than meets the eye right
@@M0306D Finally somebody knows!
emgo~~~~요즘 reviews가 늦네요!! 신상품이 빨리 나오는데
Your G1 Skids review has been marked as kid's content... shaaaaaame
This review's just good enough for me though
I always like Skids. How well does this one dance?
And how well does this one do it with Naughty Nautica.

Emgo u ever think about getting a shadow fisher's kits for ur mp-10 cause the top of the smoke stacks on your are wore out, i meant just as a suggestion. I have it on mine & i dig it.
Are they planning on doing a cross cut repaint of this?
I'm guessing you skipped the beginning of the review lol
@@emgo316 oh yeah lol
hey what's up emgo ✋ like yours videos view
Do you plan on getting the Crosscut repaint Emgo? Just curious.
nope
I don't like it, its too big, it should be about the same size as Bumblebee
Wait where's the movie skids
Id get this BUT IM SAVING FOR THE NEW MASTERPIECE OPTIMUS PRIME 450$ I SOLD MY KIDNEY FOR MY HOT TOYS I NEED THE OTHER ONE 😭😭😭
Or just buy the Magic Square or Transform element for 1/3 of the price which look just as good if not better
