Whoever at Hasbro that though repaints of older moulds for the 40th anniversary for the movie was a good idea was only thinking of how much money they could make by reusing old moulds, cheapskates, making it a money grab instead of honouring the fans with new accurate designs <br>I'm really annoyed with them changing the ss86 packaging design & throwing in random bussworthy bumblebee series packages, then they dropped the ss86 lable for MTMTE lable making the collection look like three different collection mashed together, so getting a uniform collection is impossible <br>That's one more thing the 'apology tour' can't make up for, for anyone trying to get them all uniformly, but then i never thought id see the original movie get a line of toys all these years later<br><br>Til All Are One

Excellent video! I have been hard on SS86 in a lot of my discussion videos, but I do enjoy the figures in the line for the most part. I don't like how it has hijacked Studio Series on the whole, but at least a lot of the figures have been solid. <br><br>And as always, great work here! Really like your style and how you explore the topic; your videos are a joy to watch.

On Hot Rod you forgot to mention the cool Flip-down Visor for Targeting. That feature is usually reserved for Leader/Masterpiece.

This line would be amazing if each figure had a production budget and paint application budget of more than $0.12 cents, and if the prices points weren't fucking ripoff (deluxe $30, voyager $38, leader $58, commander $118) As it is, the cliffside drop in quality is more than enough to give it a berth

From what I understand, the red cross has very strict rules about using the symbol outside of its intended purpose. By the Geneva Convention’s own standards, depicting Ratchet with the red crosses on his shoulders would in fact constitute a war crime, lol

Thanks for the video. If I could just make one critique, I had to learn this for my channel early on, turn down the music a little bit. It's one thing to have to hear the same repeating midi for 2 minutes, quite another for 50.

One Fun Factoid on the "86 Kup, mine at least was made in Vietnam instead of China. Hadn't checked others, just noticed on him.

I don't collect Transformers, nor was a big fan of the series/movies, but I thought this was an excellent video. Most interesting was when you point out differences between the figure and movies.

Hasbro already finish with 3 main seekers in this years, they also revealed the rainmaker seekers for next years will be sold in pack. I hope they also released conehead seekers to make it completed in next years

I can accept a few remolds from generations if it means we get really good new molds in the line but I agree they went a bit nuts this year for the 40th. Should have saved Devastator. <br><br>While new molds would be nice, I can defend Sunstreaker/ Wheeljack though, as someone who has the 5-pack. Like others I imagine, I sold my 86 Jazz to get it. So if that pack became redundant less than 2 years later, I'd be pissed off. Thankfully I guessed they were repacks after seeing listing for 86 Hound.<br><br>The amount of 86 figures this year have shot themselves in the foot, 86 is almost done haha. So no surprise they are starting SSG1 to get everyone else
