Ngl that bulkhead repaint looks really amazing,the fact that animated is one of the most unique and genius toylines after the unicron trilogy/micron trilogy and rid 2001/car robots,make it more funnier
Every time I find you you have a different profile picture.
@@Protosilver97 yes,but what's the bad thing about that
@@bilal_MH-907 I just pointed it out.
This comment makes no senseless
This repaint sorta reminds me of the GI Joe Mudfighter plane. Same colors.
Would have loved to have seen Animated Perceptor and Wheeljack toys
Absolutely
Strika
Yes. Both huge losses.
Technically RTS Perceptor could be seen as a G1-ified version of Animated Perceptor with very similar features and gimmicks. Similar to the Legacy Bulkhead design philosophy, but 10 years earlier.
I'm so glad I decided to pickup Blackout, Jet Bumblebee and Jetpack Optimus instead of waiting for the Hasbro versions that didn't come.
Animated line is one of my FAVORITE ever. An amazing cartoon to toy iteration. Still blows me away. I look at that animated tf almanac and just wish and pray and imagine them making all of them. The list is too big to name
5:28 I would’ve burst in excitement of I saw this Optimus Prime toy on toy shelves in stores.
When I was a kid I tried to make Vortex Blurr out of my regular Blurr.
Needless to say that was to cover him in black sharpie.
Me with my Unicron when he got recolored in Energon.
But with paper and tape.
I never meant to watch Animated. Instead I got hooked from the first episode, and ended up getting pretty much all the toys. Except Lugnut. Something about him just didn't look right.......
. Probably my favourite TF series ever.
And I really wanted an Animated Omega Supreme figure, though the Titan Ark was clearly inspired by him.
They're probably never going to revisit the Animated aesthetic, but I wouldn't mind seeing more of the Animated characters make a comeback as CHUG figures.
The Titan ark wasn’t inspired by omega
This is just depressing. Poor Animated deserves so much more love. I know that it's pretty much impossible to get Season 4 now, but the least they could do is release these cancelled toys.
If they would just expand the concept series past the movies, then that would solve everything. That’s all has needs to do. And maybe using the surviving gray prototypes as reference points.
If there was ever a time 3rd party desperately needs to pick up the slack, it's with Powermaster Prime and the triple-changer Megatron from Animated. These need to happen, and if Hasbro ain't doing it, Fansproject or others like them need to.
personally I'm still waiting for a good reimagining of Broadside, but I wholeheartedly agree with you.
Especially the triple-changer Megs.
@@TornaitSuperBird Your wish was already granted in Titans Return, though
@@Spike-Prime that was garbage honestly
@@Convoy_Prime "garbage" is a pretty big overreaction. The robot mode was great, with a solid design and good articulation. Ship mode also worked well too. Only the jet mode kinda sucked, but triple changers nearly always have one mode which doesn't work.
I think we can cut TR Broadside some slack for one semi-bad mode when the others are solid.
No slack to be picked. Despite being loved by many, the designs are still very divisive and past 3rd party Animated toys showed the existing fans are not willing to pay 3rd party prices for them.
We also lost out on Leader Class Powermaster Optimus Prime, and that toy didn't even make it past the concept art stage.
I wish Hasbro would post reviews of their prototypes before they put them in the storage bin, I've always wanted to know how that Hotshot transforms
Wow, Windblade Optimus Prime is dope!👍👍👍
Just learnt that the voyager thunder cracker did actually release. There are some reviews, specifically one from peaugh. I can’t believe it is actually out there. Makes me want to track one down even if it’s near impossible. Perhaps a worthy white wale
I still cry a little seeing that unfinished Hot Shot figure.
a mudbuster bulkhead from the legacy mould seems cool to me
7:58 couldn’t agree more. I always loved these redecos that make the character feel like they are on some sort of covert mission or something of that nature. The last time we got a genuine true to form version of that kind of toy was in Cyberverse with Stealth Force Hot Rod and even then it was just a warrior class not a redeco of the deluxe or anything else :(
Now THIS is a list worth adapting into a "Mr Incredible becomes sad" meme!
Gotta love how I’m being barraged with commercials for Roombas while watching this. There was even one with this little command center-looking overdone dock.
I remember in Toys R Us buying Animated Ironhide and being interested in Vortex Blurr and Mercenary Swindle, but not finding them anywhere in the store.
I akso remember videos on CZcams of Powermaster Optimus Prime and Blackout and all like "Why can't we have those here?"
And the realization that was over a decade ago makes me feel 100 Years Old.
This and what I want for a #masterpieceanimatedtoyline is sadly just a pipe dream. You know I'd really want myself to have a masterpiece style blackout from animated in my hands in a masterpiece style of the other animated characters.
Idk why 3rd party companies don't put out Animated stuff. They do for other series but never Animated..
@@crunchy_wafers exactly! Come on we really need some MPA toys.
7:41/9:27 I smell a Selects repaint.
10:35 I'm already commenting on these images as I speak.
That will make Keyan Carlile happy.
omg i talk about that on my let's talk about videos but now all my let's talk about is in my podcast
I'll be that guy for the sake of anyone confused and point out that the Activator Ratchet he showed was not actually an Activator. It was a Bumper Battler. The Activators were typically like the Soundwave he showed at the end, with full robot modes.
That Soundwave I seen it before but someone has it in their hands on reddit
Rip marauder Megatron
Now I really want to see these Canceled Figures get released.
Actually, a few of the voyager Thundercracker did make it out the door. Peaugh was lucky enough to get one of them.
That Blurr looks like a batmobile.
In my head I have a mental image of a Voyager class Scrapper. Was he ever proposed?
Animated blackout looks like he’s wielding a Punisher T from war robots
It was never ok we did not get a Ark Omega Supreme Toy.
Note: some of these unreleased toys were released to the Takara line because they had more money
19:30 ominous foreshadowing
There were even plans to make an Optimus figure that could actually become a full-on firetruck. The “trailer” would have become Powermaster-inspired armor for his robot mode.
That winged Optimus technically was remade for Beast Hunters.
That Blackout cancellation hurts to this day.
I’m gonna sub to you. Been a sun before and am glad your trying to keep it going.
I loved the transformers animated toys. They were awsome
Make a video talking about all the plans for animated season 4
Hot shot and Megatron would be fantastic if they ever returned to Animated. Of course, they'd have to be willing to make things that don't have to slide into a G1 collection. Prime Arcee and Bulkhead... just doesn't satisfy.
If animated got a movie, we would have studio series animated figures
My brother actually has that Electrostatic Soundwave. He’s a fun figure. He’s a good SG standin.
Canceled Animated toys, aka the most depressing topic TJ could cover.
Great video!!
I know for a fact that Peaugh and someone called GenZhao did a review of a Transformers Animated Thundercracker (the voyager) back in 2009. They are, thus far, the only persons I am aware of that own/owned it and that Thundercracker probably saw a really limited release just like Movie Reverb, Gunbarrel and Backtrack
Lmao I had a ko of animated voyager Thundercracker
So in a way it was released, even if it was unofficially
Also what they did with Bumblebee reminds me of Siege Shockwave
If they made a fugitive wasp in Buzzworthy I would be...oh my god, I would be so happy. I would actually be in heaven.
I sweari have that ratchet Alternator though
Ah yes, the thousand-dollar Thundercracker. Disappointed I can't get that.
i would have loved a nemesis color scheme for the jet twins aka safeguard. oooh that would have been so amazing. they were my favorite toys of the line.
Very enjoyable video
I'm surprised that they decided to give the budget to Ironhide to give him a new head instead of Wasp. Wasp was way more prominent in the show and a more important character than Ironhide, who was essentially just a military version of a school bully.
meanwhile the Constructicons didn't get any toys at all despite their screen time.
in my opinion, the most offensive canceled robot is the blackout, fugitive waspinator and thundercracker
I loved animated activators esp the seeker mold
Triple changer Megatron fantastic. To bad he never came out!
Thanks 🙏
16:44, T_T Maaaan!!
TF Animated needs more love. 19:58, DO IT GUYS!
I have a memory of you reviewing that white Soundwave
where is the 3rd party love for animated, im so surprised there is none. i mean damn apc toys is making perfected versions of a lot of the prime stuff, we need the perfected versions of these epic animated toys man.
12:50 wonder if it gonna be own the rebuild es Blur gonna look.
PD: it's confirmed that he survive his encounter with Shockwave, but he end compressed in a cube like a scraped car, completely immovilized
That is even worse.
@@Protosilver97 in special for a guy can't stay still or shut his mouth for 2 minutes.
11:00 there's something I don't get sunstorm, skywarp, and Starscream came out in the Voyager line but not Thundercracker that sucks, but I've seen someone take a Voyager Starscream and repaint it into the blue and purple color scheme.
This line was cancelled for a rushed Prime line and I never really got to heavy in to prime. Some were good but animated reinvigorated the toy line, prime dragged us back. Such a shame
It really didn't.
There are already many reuses of molds and repaints that already exist but at least they are of actual characters (prowl/bluestreak down to Titan Masters Hardhead/Quake). It's upsetting enough without the Batman-stlye rainbow variants.
TFA Samurai Prowl was great because it was 1) canon and 2) a cool toy with extra pieces.
Blackout looks like a very good transformer!👍
I also wish we got a powermaster Optimus like the concepts seen in the Allspark almanac
12:55 Not to BotCon.
God, every time i see Marauder Megatron, part of my soul just dies. Also when I remember the concepts of an OP with the Star convoy chest star and Bayverse flames, who can then become a huge power master. We were robbed of what easily could have been the best TF toys.
There have been printable versions of Marauder Megatron
I still have that wing Optimus prime
I'm only missing the shoulder cannons.
I'd have preferred Wasp get the new head. He was more of a character compared to Ironhide in that series.
Not sure if you know but the facebook link on the descrip goes to a different page
Interesting…
At least they released most of these in Japan
Peaugh had a copy sent to him and I'm jealous to this day
Out of all the shows that I feel saddest about not getting finished animated is definitely at the top spot I loved that show when I was in middle school it was really good and I liked alot of the designs and characters I was really hoping that they would bring it back on paramount plus or quibi or something but since tragically derrick j wyatt passed away we can't get it back and see it's story conclude I miss that show and I wish we would have gotten some of the characters that never got toys in America and everywhere else they never got them and figures of the characters that never got toys
I like that Optimus prime with a jet pack and a hammer
Beast Wars has gotten love. Perhaps Animated will, eventually.
If we don’t get anything for Animated’s 15th anniversary this year, I’m gonna be so mad. We got nothing for Animated’s 10th in 2017.
Neither we did for 2001 RiD last year.
I hope they do a Hasbro pulse new mold for animated cybertronian megatron or animated megatron or starscream my favorite versions of the characters and the best versions of those characters in my opinion
Hot Shot and Bumblebee would've been like brothers, in some way or more ways than one. Right?
Best I can guess they couldn’t get the rights to make him cy-kill
More repaints? After the tuner mudflap blight of the mid 2000s?
Just a heads up, everything in the Allspark Almanac isn't true. Marty said himself that stuff like the character profiles was pretty much written to be like published fanfiction. The episode lists were all just pitches and something like 90% of that would've been changed.
Every story gets edited and changed in production, this isn’t really news.
The line and series shouldn’t have been cancelled as it was a great line that drew in new and old fans, what replaced it wasn’t all that great. I’d have paid to see the show get a 4th season
@@flowrebaz6189 I know, but many take the Allspark Almanac as pure fact. TFA was still great.
That makes a lot of sense. I never liked the Almanac for that exact reason.
@@vriderch1360 It's fun to read as like a fan continuation to fill out the world. (Like Keyan Carlile).
I can see why the thumbnail one was canceled looks hard to make
2:53 what do you mean one of the few characters that aren't G1, Blackout had a G1 toy. Unless you mean by his design then yes it is not based on his G1 counterpart
I love me an animated video
Ur a Bot
I really didn’t want to have to reap this show, or it’s toy line. Dang happenstances…
bruh
Hot shot is just so good 😞
Great video and I can see all these characters on the toy shelves selling out quick
The Animated Bumblebee being released in Buzzworthy ended up being bad info, unfortunately.
I'm relatively new to Animated toys: I'm interested in what are everyone's favorites? I have Oil Slick, Lugnut, Jazz, Sentinel Prime, Bumblebee, Blitzwing , Lockdown and voyager Bulkhead on the way- I'm blown away by these toys! what are the Best?
Honestly, you pretty much can't go wrong with any of them! But if I had to pick a few favourites outside of what you've already picked up...
I would definitely recommend picking up a version of Prowl - if you can get Samurai Prowl for a reasonable price, do it!! But the regular Deluxe is also extremely good. Soundwave and Swindle are both really fun and characterful toys. Blurr is incredibly slick in both modes, he's one of the real marvels of engineering in the line imo. Ultra Magnus is hefty and chunky and absolutely loaded with gimmicks... I could probably recommend every single toy for some reason or another, but I'll try and cap it there, lmao
Definitely blurr and rhodimus, they look fantastic (especially next to optimus which I recently got).
If anything maybe don’t get the seekers? They’re kinda 50/50 depending who you ask.
The dinobots are a lot of fun though, especially grimlock. As well as jetfire and jetstorm.
And if you were ever to go full on out check the botcon exclusives or the takara exclusive paint jobs, like shiny prowl, wing blade optimus or dark colored rhodimus or even the elite guard version of some of them.
P.S. while not released with animated, there is a slipstream toy out there but it’s a retool of windblade
Thank you!!!
Thank you!!!
Bumblebee's submarine armor is probably a reference to his G1 bio that refers to him as some sort of underwater operations expert.
Speaking of making money with generations selects, imagine if they rereleased Swindle with the clear plastic replaced with opaque plastic, they’d make a pretty penny.
I really want that Blackout but come on $400, really
Oh that first transformer in this video that got a toy
But I must offer this as a rebuddle to 15:02
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
I miss everyone of my animated figures
I always liked Bulkhead from TF Prime
Also, I personally feel that doing Hot Shot in blue helps set him apart as a different character from Bumblebee.
I could see him as a blue car with yellow flames in the front, mixing both looks.
@@wsc0tt exactly!
Are we sure that Grimlock wouldn't succumb to GPS?
You forgot to mention the actual powermaster optimus prime toy. It's was only in the concept art stage though.
