Man, it really is sad how Cliff gets treated now, seeing this just reminds me of what a boss he was. Small, spunky, had a good record in battle, courageous, and surviving the worst of the worst.
Sucks to hear. All too common with reboots unfortunately.
@@MichaelMercy Well, more specifically him and how he keeps dying as soon as he shows up. Prime, Bumblebee Movie, WFC Siege, etc.
He's such a Tough Bot. One of my favourites. Never backed down from anyone. The Minibots were awesome.
I always loved Cliffjumper for his spicy personalty and courage to take on big challenges. Besides his G1 toy was a personal favorite of mine when it comes to smaller robots.
Same. In fact I only had 3 of the 1984 Autobots: Optimus, Brawn and Cliffjumper.
@@MichaelMercy Cliffjumper should appear in Earthspark. He would have an amazing dynamic with Bumblebee.
I always forget Cliffjumper is a Porsche but I never forget how epic he is as a character. Great video 🙏
Thanks! He'd make a great Renegade.
TREMENDOUS! Thanks for this look at ol' "Cliffjump." I always yell at the screen in Transport to Oblivion, "What are you shooting at?!?!?!" I think he's listed as Warrior because of the press slam on Mirage.
Thanks Bob. I bet he was the one who loaded up the Ark with the rocket fuel.
If the original G1 Autobots were dog breeds, Cliffjumper would be the chihuahua. Small, but feisty and rambunctious.
Good one.
Cliffjumper will always special for me. He was the first transformer i ever bought. I still have this figure after 35 years. The tires are hard now. Even dented at where it stood on. Very fragile too. But i will never sell it or thow it away.
This is a video for me cliffjumper is my favorite transformer. This great video just made my day a lot better.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. Take care.
You too
When I was a kid cj was the transformer toy I wanted the most. As an adult I’ve pre-ordered the Missing Link Cliffjumper toy, so after all these years I’ll finally get him 🙃
I guess, Cliffjumper’s Glass Gas is equivalent to liquid nitrogen
Hi Micheal, great video about the Autobot Warrior CilffJumper, keep them coming, also Great but superb Spotlight on an awesome character. I see you got the Studio Cell Pumpkin, Sweet! Also CilffJumper is one of both my favorite Transformers and best Autobots of all the franchise ever since I was a kid, also Incredible video, my man.Well researched and incredibly sharp photography.Also a tiny but mighty Autobot. Another great but excellent Video, well done. Casey Kasem is and will always be King.Casey was also the voice of Shaggy from Scooby-Doo. So Jazz and CilffJumper both survived the movie, but Scatman Crothers died and Casey quit over the insensitive name of the Middle Eastern Country.🤔, Despite that I too believe it was due to the late great Legendary voice actor Casey Kasem who also did the Classic,Original, Retroboot, Shaggy on Scooby Doo is why he had such a pronounce moments on the G1 show as he brought great but remarkable storytelling.Also Superb! Thanks for this look at ol CilffJumper I too always yell at the screen in Transport to Oblivion, "What are you shooting at" I too think he's listed as Warrior because of the incredible press slam on Mirage in the Classic Transformers episode Traitor. Man even though it really is sad how CilffJumper gets treated now, seeg this just reminds me of what a boss he was.1.Small,2.Spunky, 3.Feisty,but 4.Rambunctious,Had a good record in battle, Courageous, and always surviving the worst of the worst.Also I always loved CilffJumper for his spicy personality and courage to take on big challenges.Besides his G1 toy was a personal favorite of mine when it comes to smaller robots.Also the following information is from Transformers Universe(Limited, mini-series)#1(December,1986): CilffJumper Allegiance:Autobot,Function:Warrior, Subgroup:Minibots, First Appearance:1.(Comic)Transformers(1st series)#1(August,1984),2.Cartoon) More Than Meets The Eye(1984), Transformation(as of 2023):Earth Car,also Weapons/Abilities(as of 2023): Primary Weapons is what CliffJumper called his Glass Gas rifle this semi-automatic weapon shoots projectiles that explodes on contact covering their target with a destructive gas that disrupts most metals on a microscopic level rendering them as brittle as glass, Also great but superb content Micheal thank you for posting keep up the great work stay safe out there have a good night, have a Happy Easter,Transform and Roll Out and Nerdmaste.🙂👍🦸💪🇺🇸🇨🇦🏋️💚🔵🔴🟢🤛✌️🤓
An interesting quirk is that the scale discrepancy wasn’t fixed in animation for the mini bots so despite should being the same size as jazz he and the rest are little guys and it plays into their personalities.
My favourite Transformer of all the franchise ever since i was a kid!
Great spotlight on an awesome character. I see you got the Studio Cell Pumpkin, Nice!
Thanks!
His bio reads "Let me at 'em!"
...
...he's Scrappy Doo, isn't he?
One of my favorite underated Autobots
Cliffjumper was my first autobot toy way back in 1984. I still enjoy the minibots. Great video.
Same. He was basically a tougher version of Bumblebee. Thanks, happy that you enjoyed it.
Your content always warms my little autobot heart. Thank you for everything you do! ❤
Awesome retrospective for the little Autobot scrapper!
Thanks!
A tiny but mighty Autobot.
I love how you never, not once mentioned that your Cliffjumper has a loose arm
That alone just shows me you don't judge or shame your figures
Cliffjumper is my favorite bot. My older brother had a yellow Cliffjumper and I ended up breaking it to bits.
Really well put together, this Bio piece was excellent. Thank you
Thank you, happy that you enjoyed it.
That was a great video Michael, I appreciate all the work you into these videos, Nerdmaste 👍
Thank you kindly. Nerdmaste! 🙏
Have the Red Bumblebee, but always wanted Cliffy. He was great. Loved this video. So great to learn the history.
Thanks!
I believe it was due to the great voice actor Casey Kasem who also did the OG Shaggy on Scooby-Doo Doo is why he had such a pronounce moments on the G1 show as he brought geat story telling.
Yeah the whole Sunbow cast was 🔥
Thank you Michael for the great content! 🙏🏽😎👍🏽❤️
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it.
Cliffjumper was my first ever Transformer. Probably because of his appearance in Marvel UK's issue 48 Dinobot Hunt part 2.
Love your history, retrospective, etc. videos. More please. :D
Thank you. Happy to hear you enjoy them.
Christmas '84, my first Transformers Sunstreaker, Mirage,Thundercracker, Soundwave AND CLIFFJUMPER!!!
Excellent vid, my main. Well researched and incredibly sharp photography.
Thank you.
I don’t understand why we don’t see more of Cliffjumper on screen nowadays
I didn't have a lot of TransFormers back in the day, but Cliffjumper was among the few I got; this definitely brought good memories. Kudos.
Happy to hear it. Cheers!
I like the mini bots. As a kid they were most of the ones I could afford. It was cool the cartoon pushed them as characters a poor kid didn’t feel like he only had bit characters. If you just had prime and some mini bots you felt like you had a good squad
I have the yellow cliff jumper. On the hunt for a red Cliffjumper
I would argue that G1 Bumblebee is just as brave and fearless, but without the recklessness and eagerness for battle. 'Jumper is a great character, though, for sure. The Buzzworthy figure they released of him is absolute cartoon perfection.
9:42,hahahaha,after this momant,I got a commerical
another great video, well done. Casey Kasem is king❣️
Thank you! He is, and greatly missed.
This was weapons grade awesome!
Thank you!
Geesh...😕...just frickin' sad💔that he was more-or-less kicked to the curb and swept under the rug after two seasons and the movie...unreal...💯✔️
Cool video.
Thanks!
13:57 So, despite the fact that Spider-Man knows that the symbiotic suit is capable of morphing into anything,
(he was just using it in an earlier page to change from a civilian outfit to his hero costume),
his "brilliant" idea is to just put a army helmet on top of his head, and pull up to the commanding officer,
still wearing the symbiotic suit as his hero costume and hope that his "clever disguise" will fool the guy.
Pete, sometimes I think you just do silly stupid things to see if you can get away with it.
Fanstoys made a great cliff jumper
So another voice actor that voiced him was Dwayne Johnson … I can’t remember what the series was called but he was eliminated in the same intro episode
casey kasem was also the voice of shaggy from scooby-doo
I think Cliffjumper is representative of a variation on the question, "Well, if your friend jumped off a cliff, would you do it?" as a retort to the old proclamation, "But my friend did it!".
The answer is meant to be no. But that's also indicative of Cliffjumper's willingness to jump into action without thinking of the potential consequences or downside of his actions. More heart than brains, in other words. Optimus the voice of reason that stops Cliffjumper from "jumping off the cliff", much less have anyone follow him off the ledge to potential disaster.
Then again, he was one of the very few Autobots to survive the 86 movie, so he must be doing something right.
True, so many in the relatively peaceful Autobot City bought it but he was right on the Decepticon doorstep, got eaten by a monster planet and somehow survived.
I felt so bad for him in the Bumblebee movie
I actually thought cliff jumper was an 80s Ford 2 door Escort GT when I was a kid....
I dont get why the Bumblebee movie cliffjumper is part of the '86 movie series.
14:54 - I have....several questions.
The answer to all of them: "It was the 80s."
❤❤❤
What's that upgrade kit you have on devastator? Looks great!
What devastator figure is that at the 2:00 mark? It kind a looks like G1, but I don’t think it is… 🤔
It's a G1 with a third party upgrade kit: news.tfw2005.com/2012/02/22/x-transbots-xp-1s-upgrade-kit-for-encore-devastator-174462 . Mine's pretty crappy. Very loose and floppy. He can barely stand and barely holds his gun.
Are you planning on doing the History of the Transformers: 1987 Edition?
When frist saw the G1 universe with it's movie Cliffjumper was one of the characters I really liked from it and came up with an idea of him Jazz and Bumblebee being a trio of brothers. Which I then got to play out a lot with the 07 toys drew to all the Bees from the time getting repainted into him which I've always been ok with because they do look similar enough to might as well be repaints and I really hate that him dying at the beginning of Prime because the actor was to expensive has become a running joke now one because it isn't funny to murder your characters and most of the bots in Prime didn't get a lot of screen time because of actor cost and ignoring a majority of the robots didn't become a running trend. Just another reason why I found Prime a disappointing series.
I thought Cliffjumper would have made a better Classic Pretender than Grimlock to go along with Jazz and Bumblebee. I agree, the three of them go well together.
So, Jazz and Cliffjumper both survived the movie, but Scatman Crothers died and Casey Kasem quit over insensitive name of Middle Eastern Country…🤔
Yeah carbombia isn’t subtle. Little 80s humor that wasn’t funny.
I liked him over bumblebee
Is it only Transformers G1 where he does not die.
Not sure, I don't watch much of the newer shows.
The one I had one that was yellow, and Bumblebee was red?🤷🏽♂️ It probably was a factory error, but my friends said it was a lot of them like that?🤔
Not a factory error: "Cliffjumper was released in two primary variations, perhaps the most noticeable in Transformers G1: with an entirely red body, or entirely yellow. Both colors were available earlier as Microchange releases, but an interview with Hasbro executive George Dunsay states the variation was released deliberately to plump up the early appearance of Transformers variety in stores."

Hey Micheal what transformers did you have when you were a kid? Besides Optimus of course.
Just a few fron each year. For the 84 wave, I had Cliffjumper, Brawn, Megatron and Prime. Yourself?
Well I have Preceptor, Bumblebee, and Grimlock though I'd like to get a few more!
😗👍
👍
