21:05 Dammit, Barry! XD I'm out of the MP game these days and I'm pretty happy with my Siege "Refraktor"s, but it's always fascinating to take a look at different takes on these guys.
Always thought it was kind of funny that it took three decepticons to make one camera. Tank? One guy. Jet? One guy. Lots of examples. Boom box? One guy who was way more awesome than his alt mode would indicate. Camera? We’re going to need three bots to meet that kind of complicated alt mode, despite literally every Decepticon having built in cameras in their faces.
I always thought the all in one lens transformation was one of 3rd party's first real innovative achievements. Every other Reflector to this dayhas a separate lens partsforning element I believe. I miss Maketoys :(
They actually made it easy to remember who is who for anyone who cares about their individual names? Viewfinder has the viewfinder, like always. Spyglass has the lens. And Spectro? Is the one thats left.
I was watching your other video as well as this video on SEIGE "Refractor" and I figured out how to put all 3 of them together in ship mode.... it's not bad at all.
Face sculpt really adds a creepiness to the character(s), especially that "happy" face. Would love to see some series use their odd "one individual spread amongst three bodies" dynamic.
Pretty ingenious design on these guys, I think. He's my Reflector of choice. I wonder if Fanstoys was mad Maketoys totally beat them to the punch with their usual aesthetic with the white faces and translucent chests. Haha!
I'm glad you got this set. I picked them up on their first run back .... whenever that was. I've been very happy with them. The tripod adapter is the best part because it allows you to use any old tripod for a stand in your display. :)
It would be interesting to see a version of this character make the 3 small bots able to combine into 1 big one. May not look perfect but your could have one as the torso and the other 2 split into limbs.
The looks the one with the lens was giving was funny 😄...especially when you were removing the lens he looked over his shoulder like you like whats back there 😏
Been years since I got the Fans Toys one, but I'm still impressed with its faithfulness to the cartoon. Never cared for the Maketoys set. My fav is the KFC set, despite the fact it takes it's inspiration from the comics.
Am I the only one here who (pun incoming) "visualized" the camera mode on that tripod being like a third mode where it's like a octopus-spider mode with a missile pod there...?
Does having three bots to make one transformed mode still count as partforming? .....shhhhhhhhh.... Also, hope Megs isn't planning to use him to take his vacation photos.
Sup my dudes dudets and non-bons that are watching these videos I just want to ask. How are you guys doing how have you been have you token a brake and breathed and relaxed, have you drunk some water, have you told your parents (if they like you and are good parents) that you love them? If you haven't then go and do it.
I do love these guys, but they just can't stand up against the FT or KFC versions due to things like the outside of the shoulders and the lack of paint. Personally I've got the KFC set in their bot modes and this set in front of them in the camera mode.
Okay, stopping the background music when you did the flash bit made it 10x funnier lol
Emgo, I love the flash joke. I honestly love how you just put a flash figure instead of the actual camera flash.

He was to small to form a camera on his own I guess
Think like a business and you will understand why

"Okay, Reflector. Let's see what you can see."
Love that charlie's angels final pose...
I picked these guys up recently, the translucent green chests alone were enough to totally win me over
I loved how you added The Flash figure to Reflector
They actually made it easy to remember who is who for anyone who cares about their individual names?
Viewfinder has the viewfinder, like always.
Spyglass has the lens.
And Spectro? Is the one thats left.

I like that it has little by way of parts forming.
End segment was friggin' hilarious. Love it!
Nice "Charlie's Angels" reference there for their pose at the end. LOL

Is that a Charlie's Angels reference on how they are posed at the end? 👌🏻
The "install the flash" part really caught me off-guard... hahahaha...
Love the Flash joke, but also the Charlie’s Angels pose on the turntable at the end! LOL
The Flash figure caught me off guard. Almost burst out laughing in the office. LMAO!
Multiple instances of "Second verse, just like the first". Totally happy camper here.
Too bad the packaging didn't have Sad Pacman though 😢
I love their chest details and that shade of green. The also look cool in their reprolabels set :)
Okay the actual camera tripod adapter for this is just insane it's completely unnecessary and it's cool.
back in the 80's reflector was never sold in stores. the only way you can get him was thru a mail order thru hasbro.
The looks the one with the lens was giving was funny 😄...especially when you were removing the lens he looked over his shoulder like you like whats back there 😏
Another amazing review
Ah, so the (highly simplefied) MFT version is based on this one.
Been years since I got the Fans Toys one, but I'm still impressed with its faithfulness to the cartoon. Never cared for the Maketoys set. My fav is the KFC set, despite the fact it takes it's inspiration from the comics.
That's one for my book. Should i feel sorry for starscream or should I just laugh at him ......nah, maybe both
I hope Maketoys makes a comeback. They had a cool style.
never would have thought I would have heard a 76ers reference in an emgo review...who knew?
Triplets combining into one stuff reminds me of the Crimson Typhoon in Pacific Rim where a triplets of Chinese become the commanders of a Jaeger.
At first, I facepalmed at the Flash joke, but I couldn't stop laughing afterwards XD
Loving The Charlie Angel pose
I liked that joke. I'm not going to spoil it by saying which joke, but we'll know.
emgo: now to install the flash
me: if the flash isnt used it is a missed opertunity for a nice pun.
emgo puts the flash on it.
me: ROFL CALLED IT
Nice I love these toys and wish i could get my hands on a good bumble bee and Optimus prime . great video been watching since beginning
5:30 Smile for the camera 📸
Where were the hand gestures during the closure? I like that
Still think the Perfect Effect reflector team is my favourite version. That being said, they’re just so dang small
Here within a Minute.
Am I the only one here who (pun incoming) "visualized" the camera mode on that tripod being like a third mode where it's like a octopus-spider mode with a missile pod there...?
Those interchangeable faces reminded me a lot of Hexadecimal from Reboot.
The Charlie's angels pose..
Size of the camera mode reminds me of a camera from the seventies and early eighties lol
21:06 I actually cackled.
Does having three bots to make one transformed mode still count as partforming? .....shhhhhhhhh....
Also, hope Megs isn't planning to use him to take his vacation photos.
The pose on the final part of the video looks familiar... Charlies Angels!!!!
I have the opticlones and fans toys spotter but these boys look good. This is one of my favorite bot clones. Mite have to replace the opticlones.
Are Spyglass, Spector and Viewfinder the names of each of these guys or do they just go under the name Reflector?
they're the men in the box
They look pretty cool! but the shade of grey is so light :/ wish it was darker.
it bothers me more than it should that they all seem to have tabs on the back of their hands that don't do anything
Final pose: Charlie's Angels ?
Whatever happened to your TFC Toys Reflector trio from a few years ago (the one whose camera mode looked much more like a modern camera?)
I never got the TFC version. I have the Fanstoys version. They appear in this video.
I wonder if Masterpiece Megatron can hold the smaller camera?
After seeing the skit, yes he can.
watch the skit :)
I suppose you could store the button inside the lens
Can you do TFC Photron next?
THE FLASH 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
Nice. If you're looking to get rid of your Fans Toys version, let me know! For real.
Cool
Charles Angels pose!!??

This is my comment to appease the great algorithm
Did emgo316 do the protype from make toys years ago
I did the test shot for the Fanstoys set years ago.
I do love these guys, but they just can't stand up against the FT or KFC versions due to things like the outside of the shoulders and the lack of paint. Personally I've got the KFC set in their bot modes and this set in front of them in the camera mode.
I strongly disagree. Specially KFC, not in the competition.
Did that flash change the timeline this is from???
it might have
I miss sad Pacman..
Watch the Saturday vids. Sad pac man is always there
@@emgo316 I do watch all your videos.. I don't blame you for him being MIA because they aren't on any packages for stuff you review.
How could you have a g1 reflector im pretty sure they didn't make one
there is a G1 reflector
4 minutes ago and only a handful of comments... wow
KFC version ftw
But do u have the g1
No I don't
I got one but it’s missing the guns
Anyone else getting motion sickness from those “little boxes” being turned around like rubik’s cubes close up to the camera during transformation? 🤢🤮😅
21:00 the joke was so bad the music stopped for a moment and i think i heard Mascot Face-palm
