Just a heads up, my video file that contained the alt mode comparisons got corrupted so that's why there are none in this video. There are some comparisons in the Aegis video though.
Good job XTB. Best looking Hoist so far. Also, considering this is XTB, it's surprising he's not a puzzleformer like old XTB figures. He's not over engineered and I think they are learning from past mistakes. Also the accessories are pure win. Nice review as always.
Name: Hoist. Faction: Autobot. Function: Maintenance. Vehicle mode: Toyota Hilux tow truck. Motto:" You have to be rolling before you can be fighting."
After his adventures at the Indy 500, Mirage headed back to the Kanto region, and met up with Hoist outside Chrysa and Professor Cerise's research laboratory. Mirage: Hey! I'm looking for a tow truck named Hoist, you've seen him around? Hoist: You're looking at him... you know, I've been thinking if you'd try one of my moves in the Unova region when you were trying to find Red Alert, we might never have been friends with Snivy, Tepig, and Oshshawott. Mirage: Aw, don't remind me of that night. We were so lost... we couldn't find Red Alert anywhere.
Yeah, he's the most accurate so far! I don't like the silver that much and yes, I agree the head should be dark grey. I've made the suggestion to XTB, but we will see if they will change it for the final release.
Definitely the most cartoon accurate Hoist to date. I have the Ocular Max version of Trailbreaker, so will definitely pick this guy up as my MP Hoist. Great review, as usual!
I think that's a good mix. I probably slightly prefer the robot mode look of Terraegis over Aegis (especially the scale), but XTB did a wonderful job making their Hoist very different and more accurate.

+Paik4Lifehello
for me is the best Hoist on the market
this toy is almost perfect!
why they don't provide a dark grey head like the cartoon?!!!

Awesome review. He is really the most accurate of the 3 hoist so far.
Agreed!
