Show Notes:
I really felt the limitations of my video making process with this one
There's so many aspects I don't like about this video. The camera work, the lighting, the editing. I'm trying to find ways to fix these problems and get these videos in a position where I'm happy with them

I couldn't believe that the 2nd pair of speakers on his legs rotate to a different mode. That shows the love and care put into these modern iterations. All shock, no talk.
Yeah its a great detail!
i seriously hope we get some cassette bot packs for this guy, same for the new soundwave
They’ll probably release them separately, if Rumble is anything to go off of
Really like how Blaster's handles are implemented into his shins in a way they don't hinder his ankle tilts. It's one of my only gripes with Kingdom Galvatron, as the little support pieces he has in cannon mode limit his ankle articulation when properly transform. Of course you can have full tiltage if you have them flipped out in robot mode like a some sort of robotic version of Hermes' ankle wings, but it would've been neat if the pieces had a hinge joint in the middle so they can bend with the ankles. Maybe one day I rectify this issue myself once I get more confident at molding parts out of instamorph.
Thats what I’m saying, its really neat. I never really noticed that on Galvatron, I guess I didn’t play with it enough
You sure you have him transformed correctly? Never noticed the issue myself
You are quickly becoming one of my favourite reviewers. You have a strong visual style and warm delivery. All that being said... open.the.box.
same
I agree.
Open.
The!
*BOX!*
Hello there
@@younglinc9950 General Kenobi. You are a bold one.
I kind of wish I got a second NFSW so I could have kept one in the box.
Love these reviews, you have big potential. I just wish there was more videos cause I love watching them so much 🤩🤩🤩
Thanks so much! I’m always working on new stuff so please check back often ☺️
The best mainline G1 Blaster figure ever! Leaps and bounds better than the Titans Return toy and I'm glad Blaster got a new figure in the Kingdom/Legacy line. Great review, mate! Keep up the great work!
I love this figure, such a winner
I also use his weapon as an antanna in alt mode. And, people who fuss about the tape being clear makes no sense to me. How many clear casettes vs solid colored casettes were around in their time? Clear tapes were FAR more common. You don't fuss about this, but like EVERYBODY else does.
I bet most people don’t remember or just don’t even know
Most complaints I see on Eject being clear is about the longevity of the plastic as clear plastic is known to break easily when under stress, especially with ball joints; considering most of Eject’s joints are ball joints, I don’t blame them for their concern.
That being said, Eject feels pretty sturdy in hand, so long as he’s not manhandled like a child he should last a good while.
Excellent review once again! Very fair points and your enthusiasm comes through! Very fine folks indeed :)
He just feels like a really important figure to me, so I want people to be aware 👀
My guy is an audio engineer too! Even more reasons to love your content
Not professionally lol just for these videos now and I used to do VO work for overseas markets
@@Gei4Mei That is awesome! I was studying the career a while ago, loved every second of it!
this is the first video im seeing from you but i subbed within the first minute. I can just feel the quality
Thank u so much ☺️ I hope you enjoy the rest too!
I fully anticipate a Studio Series 86 remold within two years.
They wouldn’t 🤭
How did you know
The gift of prophecy
That boombox/cassette player mode is PERFECT
He is perfect 😳
You know hasbro is definitely going to make twincast sometime in the future as some sort of GS exclusive or a Walmart exclusive
They better, I hope we get more cassettes too!
lmfao please get popular already LOL you have everything it takes to be the funniest youtuber up there with jobby and thew
Thats very high praise lol I’m just happy to know that people enjoy my content so far
That inset of the F&F @2:11 was really funny
I think I saw it come up in Shorts as I was writing this review so I had to include it lol
Great video Blaster is perfect he looks like his cartoon model.
He’s really cool, a great figure
5:08 Gei4Mei prophecy confirmed as of recent Legacy reveals
Yeah I’m a genius 👀 I think he might’ve been leaked initially around this time too, he was supposed to be wave 4, but they pushed him into wave 6 now
Open that Soundwave, sir! If only so I can vicariously live through you!
I'm still holding out hope that Blaster gets reworked into a wide release Soundwave.
I justhope we get a Soundwave rerelease, they can't let this mold sit there unused!!!
Your wish is granted
We're finally getting a Twincast recolor on Legacy
I heard 👀👀👀
1:27 Looking at my copy, the buttons do have labels! They are sculpted on top of the button(s) and go from left to right: Play, Rewind, Fast Forward, Stop
Yeah, I only noticed it when I was editing somehow, but I just left it in. Maybe one day I'll do a video about any mistakes I've made.
Also... lovely thumbnail. Love me some robotic religious reproduction iconography.
I do too, I think its kind of funny. The thumbnail was one of the first things I came up with for this one lol. Thanks for checking it out 😉
Blaster actually does have molded play/stop/ffw/rwd Arrows but theyre on top of his button
I know!!! I didn’t notice them until I was editing lol
I love a lot of the newer releases!
Which ones are your favorites??
they really dropped the ball on releasing this figure with those windowless open packages. It took five finds before I could find one that still had eject with him. I get the feeling some people are stealing the little eject so that they can repaint it into rewind. I really hope Hasbro puts out the rest of blaster's cassette team.
Very nice review
Thank you friend!
"the very fine people at Hasbro"
I legit spit out my tea lol
Don’t make a mess 🥺
Agreed. Just got him too and he is perfect.💯
Absolutely
dang, this guy looks sick!
He is sick, make sure you pick one up lol
If what I saw at 2:24 is what I think I saw (and it's hard to tell), Kingdom/Legacy Blaster still has labeled buttons...the symbols are just sculpted directly onto the buttons as opposed to below them.
True! I only noticed when I was well into editing this video so I didn’t mention it
" the very fine folks of hasbro"
lmaooooo
I am unhinged lmao
@@Gei4Mei yes u are bud.
Well, whaddya guess, Twincast really is coming! (With Rewind!)
I am a prophet 😳
@@Gei4Mei but he doesn’t have double cassette space or the correctly coloured gun
Nice review gayforme this figure was super well done!
Nice, I havent gotten to opening him yet, but I have the kingdom packaging... may keep it misb, I ove the art.
May as well, could also pick up a Legacy one to open
I have both this version and the Twincast repaint. I love them both! Especially since I'm a fan of Japanese-exclusive versions of characters, the difference in the head sculpts (the Twincast version has the best expression between the two), and I am so happy to have both Rewind and Eject. Now if only we could get versions of them that aren't made out of clear plastic.... Or the rest of Blaster's cassette. Steeljaw, Ramhorn, Sundor, and Strips, specifically. I mean, they have the molds for Laserbeak and Ravage, just repaint them into Sundor and Stripes! Make a Buzzsaw while their at it! Seriously, why have they not done this?!
I dunno, they might make them for SS86 cause they’re gonna repack Blaster this year (without clear plastic I’ve heard 👀)
@Gei4Mei DAMMIT! That mean I gotta buy this bot a third time?!
Don't worry about opening the box. There's a repack of Soundwave coming in Legacy apparently.
Edit: This aged horribly. 🙃
No spoilers 😣😣😣
Hasbro on SS86 Blaster: "Lets repackage this guy and put Rewind with him!"
Also Hasbro: "Cool"
Now we need a Voyager Cosmos to go with him
But Cosmos is so smol isn’t he??
@@Gei4Mei yeah, so a Deluxe Cosmos then? I heard they're making a Cosmos for Legacy
I dunno if it was a Velocitron figure or not, but I also don’t follow leaks too closely
Interesting review. You have Earthrise Allicon and Snapdragon? Tell your opinion about them.
Allicons pretty cool, he’s really goofy and I like that, Snapdragon has a cool jet mode, I haven’t played with him a lot tho
I had no plan to pick one up after I passed on the kingdom version but damn I might have to grab one😔
U should tho, I really shoulda stressed how much I think we won’t get another one lol
forgot about that sound wave Netflix .. I did picked up 2 still in their Box because it looked awesome... other than im not a Netflix fan, and would try not to support Netflix in any way..lol.but glad I pick them up. Looking at them now, they are Even more awesome than I remember when I found them in the store
Forgot what the cost was. But I did stick over a seat in one of them. 39.95. I remember thinking that was too expensive.lol
Everybody dance now
That is true, eject is blasters son
A powerful bond
very nice :)
Thank you friend for the kind words
@@Gei4Mei i love you 😍
Ilu2 😘
"You better hide that big ass forehead" 😂😂😂 bro you need that subscribers common GET POPULAR ALREADY lmao
I’m trine lol I also planned that joke way in advance too
Are siege/Earthrise Soundwave and Legacy Blaster's cassettes and cassette decks compatible with each other?
Yeah, I just checked and Rewind does fit in Soundwave’s chest, but he does get a bit stuck
@@Gei4Mei Huh. Well, that's good to know if I ever decide to get a Blaster figure.
5:24-OMG,Evangelion reference
Is it tho 🤔
@@Gei4Mei Jobby the Hong reference then?
I dunno honestly, I don’t really watch him much 😑
@@Gei4Mei Well,there’s was evangelism review where he beat his nuts to death by just looking at toy
open the box soundwave is a very good figure
Walahi he will never be opened!
@@Gei4Mei lol he yellows very easy anyways so that's another reason to keep him in box
👍👍
Wish he had his other tapes
Same, I hope we get some soon
hopefully the upcoming twincast come with rewind.
He really should!!
I think the reason why blaster not come with rewind because they knew rewind is more popular so they use him so people buy the twincast version later in the final wave
Almost definitely, but hopefully we see more of Blasters cassettes too!
OPEN THE BOX!!!
No! I will never open it 😤😤😤
Mind if I use your cover song comparison in a review? I think that's a great analogy.
I guess so lol
@@Gei4Mei thanks! I’ll be sure to credit you.
Okay 👍 Can’t say I’ve been quoted before
“Don’t talk to me, or my son, or my son’s son ever again.”
there are probably thousands of those sound waves in box
As they should be
Is there Cassette toys of Ramhorn Steeljaw and Rewind that can fit Legacy Blaster?
A Rewind is coming with Shattered Glass Blaster. No for the other two, but Studio Series is doing Rumble, so they all could be added to that line too!
@@Gei4Mei what about the G1 Cassettes of Ramhorn & Steeljaw and Rewind would they fit in Legacy's Blaster?
I’d have to check actually
could someone explain whats the difference between legacy and kingdom blaster
Its literally just the box lol so I just said I had one and not the other for the SEO
I wish he had a cleaner alt mode
Who's that microcassette player next to eject at the end?
Its Rewind! Its the same tank he was riding on
Wanted to love legacy sound wave, but I believe it transforms into a brick of something And not a radio
This figure looked good, but seeing this review makes him look great ngl. I fear for his cassette bot though, we've had clear plastic parts breaking for figures that came out in just the last two years, time won't be kind to this poor fuck that's mostly made of the stuff.
Yeah they probably should be careful with this stuff. The new weapons will probably be fine, but I’m gonna be really gentle with Eject
Never ask G1 Blaster what his allegiance is... He'll show you, but it's disturbing
A good start to legacy, too bad it went so downhill from here...
Been doing fingernail pushups to add some stremf for those gosh darn head flips 👇
Oh man that sounds like it hurts 😣
@@Gei4Mei lol who am I kidding, I got poosay nails
I hate having nails sometimes, I bang them on stuff at work a lot
@@Gei4Meiahh I'd imagine without the invention of the finger nail, there would be a lotta unsatisfied* itchy people
We probably still would’ve invented back scratchers tho
"He loves coming with his dad" LOL
They have a powerful bond
🥺Do not open Netflix Soundwave. I opened mine when I got it last year of course...I noticed some yellowing on the blue shoulder bits and other areas recently, more like a green effect on blue plastic. Being that it's worth like 150 now, some things are nicer in the box.
I knowwww once I saw the price I was like “damn glad I didn’t!” I woulda bought two if I found another but I never did. Luckily I just bought a loose one from a friend so I’ll have one for myself and one to keep valuable
@@Gei4Mei oh that's badass good move there, who needs crypto when you got Netflix Soundwave's knawmsayinnn
Does he really go for that much? I am not a Netflix fan And try to avoid supporting Netflix in any way.. But he But so awesome I picked up 2 of them still in the Box . I'm looking at them now, they are absolutely beautiful
@@miragexl007 yeah idk why but people want so much for it. I can't even find an E.R. prime for less than 90. I missed out on a lotta main figures but I found Netflix SW without intention on finding it. Netflix themselves can screw off but I like the Soundwave I got lol
Leave the box shut and preserve soundwaves value
He shall never be opened
Volume knob confirmed, Blaster is a great Toy.. but remember kids, the Kingdom version is best.. cos of the box.
Even tho I said it was Legacy Blaster, this is the Kingdom one 🤫 I thought it would help my seo lol
Although not a deal-breaker, I still don't like this animated cartoon head.
I really wish HASBRO or at least some 3rd party manufacturer out there had made him with
either an interchangeable alt toy-head flat out instead of this one.
There’s a rumored Twincast, so maybe he’ll have the toy head
siege cassetts were released separately
I know! I have them, its just weird, cause he always comes with one, and even his reissue is still sans cassette
1:21 actually if you want better weapon storage integration then you can plug blaster’s…blaster into one of the ports on the left or right of his back, making it look like an antenna for the boom box mode, this helps add something more to his glorified brick mode, at least for me.
Also I got the idea when I saw the reveals for the Blaster repaint that they’re making for legacy evolution, in which they did that exact thing.
We didn’t have that kind of technology last year lmao
Well now you don’t have to open the box there rereleasing that sound wave also cool they released a better version of this dude in studio series
Actually, he's about a head too tall, but other than that I agree!
That’s a cool update on Blaster! But it would be 100 times cooler if someone took a old Boom box that work’s and try to turn it into a Blaster Transformer with flashing lights and effects and also plays Cassette tapes and music from radio station in it’s Boom box form. I would pay atleast three hundred dollars for a deluxe Blaster. Too bad Hasbro would never come up with that idea.
They made a Soundwave that was an MP3 player like 10 years ago if that helps 🤔
I would legit buy figures that did nothing but transform into cassettes like shapes. i mean even optimus prime and other characters. id throw them in my pocket because i am a child...
They made an OP that becomes a pen, hows that?
I'd rather Hasbro turn Micronus Prime into an Autobot Cassette Transformer and partner him up with Blaster. Why? Because the Cassette Transformers are the first Minicons ever revealed, that's why. So why not turn him into the new Minicon partner for Heroic Autobot Blaster?
I’m just hoping we get some more cassettes soon, but thats a cool idea especially if we start getting new versions of the Primes
Dude, as an audio engineer, how do you not know that "On/Off" was the volume knob on every portable stereo in the 80s and most car stereos up to the 90s. Just a little disappointed that you didn't research volume knobs before this. Lmfao.
I’m not sure I ever had one like that lol even my dad’s old stereo had an on/off switch
@@Gei4Mei i was born in 81. Every am/fm radio up used only 2 knobs and no buttons and an antenna. And most portable boomboxes were still with thayt feature til at least 89. Almost every radio from radio shack at the time. Especially JVC and sony.
OPEN THE BOX
I will NEVER open the box 😤
Need steeljaw for him.
Why do you not want to open the boxu ?
He’s like double the price, he’s too valuable 😭
But I have heard some rumors...
@@Gei4Mei Same bro I still have it in the box
but if the rumors are true....
we are doomed.
I just wish I coulda found a second one. Saw tons of Optimus Primes back then. I’ll just be happy to get one I can open tho, I’m sure the current one will be valuable
Ok so i cant reply to my cooment here. I was here 4 months ago name Genomcyber. Accident happen with my old account.
Anyway, about the hands, my copy arrived and the hands work fine, they click.
I like to put Eject on his "back" (the back you open to take blaster head off) holding one of the battlemaster (wrung). Also fun you connect eject on side of his legs like is taking a ride on Blaster's Legs xD
Blaster is really fun. Although some repoerts of yellowing on the keyes and is... well... gray part near his dick. xD
People report some really bad yellowing but I never seem to have that big of a problem with mine
Kids now a days don’t understand G1 figures lol
G1 toys are so cool ngl
Oooooooooopentheboooooooooxxxxxxxxxxx
No i refuse 😤
I have seen and might be lucky, that some reviewers got the "quality control BS" copy.
I say this because what you said about the hands not clicking .
Comparing to Kingdom's Tracks, which was a full on shitstorm on quality control. ... My Tracks is just fine. He has no issues at all, presented and complained by so much reviewers. And he actually is one of my favorite of Kingdom line.
I already ordered my Kingdom Blaster, so ....let see if the hands will plug or not.. :)
I definitely think it’s intentional, but let me know what happens. My Tracks is a little floppy tho. And its a shame cause he’s like a 7 or 8 but since he such has common problems it sours him for me
I know the UK game store GAME got him for £15 but for the life of me, I just refuse to buy him! I know the toy itself is good but I just was just never interested in him as a character! When it come to cassette players, I am always on team Soundwave!
I wholeheartedly recommend him! Does Soundwave come with a cassette bot? I don’t think so 😳😳😳
@@Gei4Mei Maybe it's cos he only got introduce in the movie and aonward and not from the start like Soundwave. I'm more attached to Soundwave than Blaster!
Yes, not liking a lot of the legacy. 5050. Blaster looks pretty good Period of course I'm AG1 guy
Either open it or sell it now
No!
@@Gei4Mei it's probably gonna get a legacy reissue so get ahead of the curve or enjoy it
What was in your hand? EW.
I don’t remember
