    Honestly, I like the translucent blue on Nemesis Prime's chest it gives more like he's a cold hearted bastard than red, but to each their own.

    • @NerdyTransformed
      @NerdyTransformed Pƙed 9 dny +1

      Same. My preference for Nemesis is red eyes, but blue or black chest

  • @mattr75
    @mattr75 Pƙed 9 dny +8

    Acid Storm and Overkill are easily my favorite repaints of the line

  • @jamesdashee
    @jamesdashee Pƙed 9 dny +13

    I got the Darkwing/Darkwind figure at a garage sale for $5 not to long ago. Best $5 I've ever spent. It's a nice figure and I highly recommend it

  • @toykash3872
    @toykash3872 Pƙed 9 dny +1

    I never realized how many of my childhood favorites came from this line the legends red alert was my favorite pocket toy back in the day

  • @robrice7246
    @robrice7246 Pƙed 9 dny +6

    10:44 Unless you're Thew Adams whose quite fond of it (he also appeared in IDW's All Hail Megatron comic).

    • @Jimboliah3985
      @Jimboliah3985 Pƙed 9 dny +1

      *Dropshot was happy one day because he then saw some Autobots with who he could do fight with!*

  • @defenderprime8046
    @defenderprime8046 Pƙed 9 dny +2

    I completely agree about the Cybertron Evac mold, in fact, it would great to get all 3 repaints, Evac, Blades and Springer, creating a super trio of these helicopters! One of the best for sure! Maybe at some point I will get the proper red Powerglide instead of the grey I still have in my collection.

  • @robrice7246
    @robrice7246 Pƙed 9 dny +3

    5:42 The Wings Universe comics had their explanation as to why Countdown had this form to being with.

  • @ezragrun
    @ezragrun Pƙed 9 dny +2

    I’d say this was the forgotten era of CHUG, but one that I was very excited for at the time. These repaints marked the beginning of 3rd party add-ons and figures. I was very excited to get the Target 2-packs with Springer, Roadbuster, Dirge, and Ratbat. Countdown was a Toys R’ Us exclusive, and I couldn’t wait for that to arrive in the mail. The one figure I regret not getting was Nemesis Prime.

  • @robrice7246
    @robrice7246 Pƙed 10 dny +4

    Think that some of Legacy's Cybertron mold will receive any of their Classics/Shattered/Universe 2.0 repaints (especially if that Goldbug needs his upgrade)?

  • @Martynde
    @Martynde Pƙed 9 dny +1

    Blades wasn't intended to be Blades. The color scheme was conceptualised first then the character was assigned second. Any difference or oddities to Blades not closely resembling the Protectobot toy is due to that.

  • @benjaminwiseman6567
    @benjaminwiseman6567 Pƙed 7 dny

    Green is my favorite color too, so I'm inclined to agree with most of your assessments.

  • @dziurawiec31
    @dziurawiec31 Pƙed 9 dny

    That Hardhead was a must-buy for me as he was the only Headmaster I had as a kid! As such, I bought the upgrade kit to make him a true Headmaster ASAP!

  • @VerdantRange
    @VerdantRange Pƙed 9 dny

    Funny thing is with Cybertron Blaster, it gives us the only example (that I know of) of a Laserbeak redeco that's an Autobot and not secretly evil like Sundor.
    I so want more stuff with Blockrock/Flashback.

  • @EternityKingdomsHeadHoncho

    Acid Storm’s fellow Rainmakers deserve the treatment they got in Universe 2. Give Ion Storm some Skydive-style lightning bolts on his wings and give Nova Storm some Kirby crackle and EarthSpark-inspired black to help break up all that yellow on her!
    I’m surprised the Cybertron Evac mold never got repainted into a G1ized Bayverse Blackout.
    Blaster retooled from Soundwave might be a relic of an era where HasTak cared less, but this and FOC Blaster are pretty neat as one-off variants of the character.
    Who invited Rufus the Hellhound to Universe 2? No seriously, they almost called Bruticus “Rufus the Hellhound”.
    Countdown absolutely rocks the First Gunner mold. Would love an homage to this figure sometime soon

    Darkwing: condemned to be forever alone unless you have his brother from BotCon 2007.
    There’d BETTER be a Dirge repaint planned for United Starscream. Skywarp’s finally happening; why not throw some love to the pre-existing repaints of the original mold?
    Classics Mirage would look great in any color palette. Yes, even the canned G2 colors.
    *NOW’S YOUR CHANCE TO BE A DROPSHOT!*
    Hardhead from weird Onslaught is honestly brilliant. Just give him a more G1 noggin and he’d be perfect.
    We honestly need more non-Constructicon Decepticon construction vehicles, and between him and ROTF Deadlift/Dirt Boss and PCC Sledge/Steamhammer, Heavy Load wasn’t half bad.
    The spirit of OTFCC 2003 lives through Hot Spot!
    Buy two Optimus-colored Lios and you end up with perfect color cohesion with Cybertron Optimus. Buy accurate colored Lio for nostalgia
 shame that was the best we had until 2017 with Legends Lio Convoy. Also, Optimus colors Lio came out first and accurate Lio was the Target exclusive.
    G2-style tank Megatron doesn’t look half bad in pure G1 colors. Huh. Also this release fixed Deluxe Classics Megs’s sdrawkcab legs.
    Hmmm
 maybe SG Nemesis, perhaps? The lack of red/hot pink honestly makes him feel gentler than the average black convoy.
    First Gunner turned into Onslaught is pretty cute. Wouldn’t mind seeing a combiner torso version of him that turned into a missile carrier

    You had bendy Prime, small bendy Prime
 and now you have GEEWUN bendy Prime! The trilogy is complete! In all seriousness, I’d love a new Deluxe-size Armada Optimus if A-level ever comes to Generations.
    Basic Deluxe Optimus with spinny waist is basic. Next!
    “Uh, sure. This is totally for Bayverse synergy and not because I’m going through a mid-life crisis.”
    Overkill from Grimlock is just as brilliant as First Gunner-turned-Countdown. Now if only he had a Slug-turned-Slugfest retool to go with him

    Finally, Overload is independent from being Optimus’s gun emplacement! He can be his own individual!
    Big Powerglide is best Powerglide. Why were only he and Seaspray embiggened while Cosmos got left out to dry?
    Honestly, Cybertron Sideways does a lot to help bring War Within Ratbat’s design to life.
    To quote the wiki, “I’m a repaint of Hot Shot? Primus help me!”
    “Roadbuster, what happened?” “I crashed into a TMNT turtle pie factory.”
    He exists. Story of Bluestreak’s life, honestly.
    Skyjack looks like he’s wearing a very tight speedo. Can’t unsee it now, can you?
    Smokescreen’s time in the hot tub made him the laughing stock of the Ark’s crew.
    Evac-turned-Springer: the one we have to thank for SG Galvatron being an Evac repaint.
    If I had a nickel for every time Starscream was the repaint of Thundercracker, I’d have three nickels. Guess who the other two were

    LET THE GEEWUN FLOW!!
    Unfortunately for those hoping to complete the Decepticon Air Micromasters, this guy is your best option for an update to Stormcloud. Kinda like him being so big, though. Maybe he’s just a carrier for his little buddies now.
    Call it the Hot Rod factor. That added orange compliments Thrust’s usual colors surprisingly well.
    Treadbolt- the name HasTak only used thrice, but all three of their toys were nice.
    Should we call him “Vecturd Prime”?

  • @Grimbot81
    @Grimbot81 Pƙed 6 dny

    As of 2024, Universe 2.0 Powerglide and Blades are still my definitive chug figures.

  • @CyberVforVictory
    @CyberVforVictory Pƙed 9 dny

    Treadbolt is still in my collection. Love that figure

  • @robrice7246
    @robrice7246 Pƙed 9 dny

    12:06 - 12:09 Not to mention that it does match his look in IDW's Devastation comic.

  • @jolemaire6629
    @jolemaire6629 Pƙed 9 dny

    Acid storm is one of the greatest repaints and a deco that should have been reissued on the MP and the modern seeker mods, but they never did. Such a shame! He is a holy grail!

  • @QueenStodge
    @QueenStodge Pƙed 9 dny

    Can't believe Dropshot was put in the flea market

  • @bloodstreak2001
    @bloodstreak2001 Pƙed 9 dny +1

    Think you should do video on best repaints for transformers throughout the decades

  • @Rampaging_Rhino_Customs
    @Rampaging_Rhino_Customs Pƙed 9 dny

    22:47 i remember getting the 2-pack of Optimus and Megatron from like Canadian Tire and the paint on Megatron would rub right off like it was still wet, i still have Prime’s gun just cause

  • @lynngreen7978
    @lynngreen7978 Pƙed 9 dny

    Custom head, and Roadbuster becomes Autobot-at-Arms

  • @Rampaging_Rhino_Customs
    @Rampaging_Rhino_Customs Pƙed 9 dny

    10:49 i got Dropshot not long ago and the panel for the side of the tank that food onto his leg is a duplicate so it doesnt form properly lol

  • @TheSharkKing45
    @TheSharkKing45 Pƙed 9 dny

    25:37 hilariously enough, this Overload isn't a random name dump.. as this is a (at the time) new figure for the Red Brick from Armada

  • @davewire87
    @davewire87 Pƙed 8 dny

    Aw man, one of the latest toys I’ve gotten is the first toy that landed in the flea market. Honestly, I thought it made for a pretty good Fulcrum from the IDW Scavengers.

  • @RangerOkie88
    @RangerOkie88 Pƙed 5 dny

    27:35 OverPowerglide 😂

  • @MrDoctorVK
    @MrDoctorVK Pƙed 9 dny

    I used to have Heavy Load till few years back I trade him on 2010 Generations Thunderwing.

  • @robrice7246
    @robrice7246 Pƙed 9 dny

    9:38 BotCon wanted to follow that up for their 2011 set by essentially re-releasing the toy with a more toon-accurate head sculpt (this was before the box set was switched to the Animated theme).

  • @luctheluckytd2264
    @luctheluckytd2264 Pƙed 9 dny

    Blades was my one of first transformers.

  • @robrice7246
    @robrice7246 Pƙed 9 dny

    6:40 I assume this was done for fans who have BotCon 07 Dreadwind.

  • @ethanmiller5469
    @ethanmiller5469 Pƙed 9 dny

    What if we got a new seeker called sea Strom using the original master piece starsream colors that sea form greenish blue

  • @robrice7246
    @robrice7246 Pƙed 9 dny

    14:30 Makes me wonder if Legacy's design team knows about this and might have the balls to do something similar with the HasLab version (if not, customizers/kitbashers will)?

  • @VAULT-TEC_INC.
    @VAULT-TEC_INC. Pƙed 9 dny

    22:43 I’ll agree that the Special Edition Optimus Prime was not a great REPAINT, but it was a great figure nonetheless. The Megatron @17:15 was terrible though. He didn’t even have a proper arm canon. It looked like guns shot out of both his wrists or something.

  • @RialVestro
    @RialVestro Pƙed 9 dny

    I am not a big fan of Evac. Out of the 4 Convoys in that series he is the one who feels the most like a generic Autobot to me. I usually don't like the repaints of that mold either. I don't think he works as Galvatron. Even as a SG heroic Galvatron it just doesn't work for me. Springer ALMOST looks good except he should be a triple changer and using this mold as that character strips away his car mode. Blades however is the best version of that mold. It actually works for the character and that color scheme makes the mold look so much better than any of the other color schemes. I actually love this repaint.

  • @medafan53
    @medafan53 Pƙed 9 dny

    24:00 Wasn't this meant as a homage to movie Optimus

  • @Megamanlanprime
    @Megamanlanprime Pƙed 9 dny +1

    Yea, I highly disagree with your placement of SE Megatron and Nemesis Prime.
    The Classics Megatron is bad enough to really pull down the benefit of such a nice paint job. So that’s down to retail/Bargain Bin. That Nemesis though
 wow you’re doing my boy so badly
 he’s meant to be a more G1-like version of Armada Nemesis, not Scourge. And yea he is great there
 the blues actually make him feel more intimidating to me. The Red wouldn’t work on the mold or the character design. He’s a great Nemesis, better than a lot we have IMO.
