I stand corrected.
The Throttlebots did appear in Season 3. That's what happens when you try to go off memory instead of researching first. 😊
I had all six of the Throttle Bots as a kid. Some of them might still be in my old toy box at my mom's house. I'm so glad we got the new deluxe class Goldbug, I hope we get more if not all of them down the line.
We need legacy throttlebots don't ya think?
We already got Goldbug in the Target exclusive 4 pack. I would love a Rollbar and Wideload.
Yes we need the rest of the team.
Yes please.
Toy story is real 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 wideload was running from the camera
Love to see updates to rest of these guys since have Goldbug already with the 4pack.
I remember having G1 Goldbug but forget what other throttlebots I had.
@@infinitedarb Rollbar could be an easy SS86 Hound retool, or maybe even a Crankcase retool even though Hound with a soft top would be better.
I still like it when you do reviews of our G1 figures
I used to take these Goldbug, or the whole gang, with me all the time. The bot modes are silly, but I absolutely loved there vehicle modes as a kid. It was disappointing when Goldbug was recently released as part of that 4 pack. I always wanted a modern version of him. Great video PP. 👍🏻
Yeah. I did want 3 out of 4 of them so i got it. but i had wanted to buy one for a childhood friend who had him as a kid. but between the price of the pack, and aftermarket it wasn't feasible for me :0(
Love these guys. I gave Goldbug to my stepdaughter. He disappeared at her dad's house. Searchlight and Rollbar are still around though!
Every Throttlebot: "Take my strong hand".
LOL!
My only Throttlebot from back in the day was also Goldbug. I was really sold on this evolution of Bumblebee. Several years ago when Reprolabels started to do those numbered upgrade sheets, the gradually came out with the Throttlebot upgrades, so once I got the set in upgrade labels, I decided to pick up the remaining Throttlebots. They really do add a lot to otherwise plain looking toys.
These days Toyhax has consolidated the upgrade stickers onto one set, so it's much more convenient from how I got into it.
Interesting thing I noticed with Goldbug, they used Bumblebee's original toy face as the inspiration for the animation/comic character model, which I was really glad to see
I missed out on Bumblebee, so Goldbug was my first toy that represented the character. While I agree overall the toy was lack lustre, it was the character that meant more to me. It's almost like the Atari 2600 games. The box art looked fantastic, but the game graphics were a let down, but so long as the game play was fun, that was what mattered, as imagination filled in the rest.
On a side note, these Throttlebots are the only G1 toys I let kids play with, and they hold up just fine.
Chase Searchlight and Freeway appeared in both parts of The Return of Optimus Prime. Wideload was in the first part. We didn't get to see Rollbar until season 4. I wish they would hurry up and update them. I though the Cliffjumper mold would have worked for the cars and new molds for the other two.
Goldbug's the only Throttlebot I got left, still works I think.
Just got back from a small local con and found a few G1 figures for cheap including Wideload, my first ever Throttlebot.
You should check out the 3rd party throttlebots. They can combine too. Also you should get aoe,rotf, alternators rollbar. Great figures
I love when you do those reviews, it`s really cool. Will you be reviewing the Hubcap you just got? Fantastic review as always, keep going!
I sure will, I'm going to do an '86 Minibots Review just like I did for '84 & '85.
I almost did the '86 one's last year but realized I didn't have Hubcap.
I never realized that Goldbug's face looks like the Fallen's in Dreamwave.
I really hope we get modern deluxe class figures of the Throttlebots to stand besides Legacy Buzzworthy Goldbug.
Sweet review man! I love the Throttlebots I think these will be my next review.
I Toyhaxed my throttlebots it makes them look so much better
I know they looked basic, but I always wanted the Throttlbots, even more so after I read the scraplet arc
I recently completed my G1 Throttlebots set, I love them, but I will agree the pull back feature can be a pain when displaying them in either mode.
I'd love an official combiner of these
I love transformers
I Absolutely agree with you, they would book amazing
I really enjoy the throttle bots. I'm suprised we've only gotten 2 i think since the originals. Chase (renamed Roadburn), and of course Goldbug. I wish they'd do the rest. there are so many opportunities for it. I wouldn't even mind if they were treated as modern mini bots. meaning they aren't all legend class size. Thanks for showing these off!
Any time, I've got so many more G1s to show off.
I do have two of them Goldbug and Searchlight and some of the Throttlebots did show up in the Return of Optimus Prime part one where Rodimus call a team of Autobots to recuse the body of Optimus.
When I hunted down the picture I used of them from the toon I realized that...but I wasn't gonna reshoot.
@@PatriotPrimeReviews it's cool nothing wrong in that.
Cool that you’re doing G1 again. How about the Powerdashers? I had the car but I can’t remember whether it was my first or second transforming robot. The other was the gobit Pumper.
Unfortunately I don't have any of the Powerdashers.
Strange. Issue 30 of Transformers was one of the last issues I bought. They feel like continuations of the Battle Chargers except they looked cool enough in vehicle mode that kids still bought them. The vehicle modes on all of these guys look like arse. :) Good review.
Hasbro sooo mailed it in with the designs of this crew.
I remember when my mom, brother and I found all six at K-Mart. $2 each, just sitting in a bin of them. They all still work, but some of the window stickers are peeling and the rub symbols take forever to discolor.
K-Mart was where I got my Goldbug.
Ahhh now this brings back some memories. I had them all but only ever displayed them in vehicle mode . Wasn't there a 3rd party company that made a Throttlebots combiner figure a few years ago?
I think you are right.
No idea who though.
I think toyworld made 3rd party throttlebots
True fact. Bumblebee was the leader of the Throttlebots of The Return of Optimus Prime part 1. The Throttlebots got hit by the hate plague and Bee help with Kup, Blurr, Blaster, Rewind and Steeljaw and got killed. And now the Throttlebots characters got in different Transformers games, show and movie. Rollbar become a Decepticon a recolor of Swindle in Transformers Robot In Disguise 2001 anime probably the definited version idk Hasbro bring back the Autobot on or Decepticon in Legacy Evolution. And Chase become his own character in a kid show Transformers Rescue Bots he follow the book in Earth stuff and rules and law. Sense the rumor leaks say about Chase fans goes nuts see Chase as a Rescue Bots so yeah that version of Chase we see more. The Combiner Wars used Chase's old colors but named it Roadburn so yeah Roadburn is the new member. Nice work.
Nice stickers :3
As a kid I was given Goldbug and Wide-Load and I'm still a bit salty about that second one as a chubby kid in 1987. These are terrible toys but great (and awful) memories and great characters in the comics!
I had the white and blue throttle bots
I'm surprised your Goldbug's gold colored plastic hasn't weakened and shattered with the passage of time.
I'm thinking GB lucked out, and he wasn't made with the same gold plastic the GPS bots were.
Bumble got damaged and rebuilt renamed to goldbug and a new color scheme
Had all 6 throttlebots hated them only TFs I ever got rid of. They looked more like cheap knock offs than real TF. Even today I just dont collect or want them. But everyone has their likes and dislikes. LOL I also hated the pretenders and action Masters... TFs that dont transform?? What's the point. I could also never see Grimlock pretending to be human seeing how he has a dislike for the weak..
I never liked these. I love G1 but won't collect these. They are good for desk decorations or to fiddle with if bored at your desk.
Honestly, I'd rather have stand-in's for their characters, rather than the actual toys. G2 Bumblebee, red white and blue Cliffjumpers, Brawn, and orange Long Haul. The pull-back action is cool, but not that cool.
🪄We're gonna get the rest of the throttle bots in Legacy. We're gonna get the rest of the throttle bots in Legacy. We're gonna get the rst of the throttle bots in Legacy. 🪄 🤞
I'd just be happy with an updated Rollbar.
Maybe we'll get Rollbar from the legacy earth mode hound. All they woul need to do, at the least, is give him a hard top.
