hot rod: "if you're gonna ride, ride in style." nemesis: "if you're gonna run, run them over."

Rodimus Unicronus doesn't need to light the darkest hour. He IS the darkest hour!!!

"taint destroying perma-split" that's one hell of a sentence...

Nemesis Hot Rod? Nah, that's Goth Rod! Also, I call my copy of Rodimus Unicronus Lemmy, for obvious reasons ;)

"What's the baddie version of [ride in style]?" Slam in the back of my Dragula.

I am 100% down for "Turbo Hearse" as an alt mode.

"Purple, poison- type pollution plume..." Thewlliteration at its very best.

Turns out the goatee on shattered glass rodimus is a reference to mr.spock’s evil counterpart in the Star Trek episode “Mirror, Mirror”

It's like he turns into a semi responsible goth bands tour bus.

I just imagined what he would say when opening his matrix ,,To drown out your brightest hour''

"spooky review-ky" - just over 20 seconds in, and i'm already cackling!

"Its long and mean and smooth" That is definitely what she said.

Best line of this episode: “Its not a phase mom edition” that had me laughing uproariously

Thew has a hoodie hung up to look scary. -calm It moves.-panic Its just Thew.-calm There are two Thews.-panic

I can say my life is enriched by the phrase “taint destroying perma-split”.

"He looks like he was listening to Motorhead." ... You know there's a lot of us, myself included, thay call him Lemmy Prime right? All he needs is a sweet hat to capture the look perfectly and probably that Laserbeak that transforms into a sick axe to be complete. Homage to a great right there!

Who knew the term "Turbo Hearse" would tickle me so much.

"... that asks, what if Hot Rod owned a tarantula?" I laughed so hard I choked on my soda. You're f****** amazing!

I'm sure this will be said a million times, but for the back panel on solo hotrod mode, you can rotate the legs into place to lock them into the panel, and it avoids any and all flexing and stressing.

Maybe the trailer represents the weight of being leader being passed on to him.

"I'm not saying that." Have i every told you that I love ya Thew?

If the phrase 40 year old metalhead was an action figure:

Lost it at "...I'm not saying that"

I JUST watched your Beast Wars Megatron review, and there's a new review ALREADY? *WHAT IS THIS MADNESS?*

7:36 A responsibili-toy.

3:14 "Some forgotten KZfaq clip..." Still can't believe its been 2 years now and that show just trickled out of relevance XD

When it comes to the Halloween reviews, I do miss Skele-Thew from the Terrifying Deathsaurus review. HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Hasbro should hire you as a Brand Ambassador Because you're -this- passionate about the hobby, it is beyond any doubt anyone would do better than how layered and so much thought put in into each one of your reviews are

When you become a prime you get a trailer its the rules.

"Look out, he's surprisingly heavy set" wow..if that ain't a mood for me right now...

I love this figure, unless they make a Shattered Glass recolor of the new studio series Hot Rod, in which case yeah this figure will be obsolete.

Rodimus Unicronus is actually one of my favorite POTP figures just for how fun it is. I skipped out on the regular Rodimus Prime one though. I felt like the half Shattered Glass half metalhead look was all I needed out of the mold.

"Taint destroying perma-split" broke me EDIT - "Serious face badness"....That's a mixtape name

God I remember watching your "best bots of 2018" or something video with this guy in it at like New Years Eve of that year and being shit faced drunk just impulse buying a ~60 euro toy for the shits and giggles. Not the first time one of your vids convinced me to buy Transformers lemme tell ya HWAT

"He's surprisingly heavyset" lol I'm dead

My Unicronus' leg assembly disintegrated the next day.

You legit had me at at "peace master" that's why your the best Thew, no one else can thew what thew do.

Fun fact: Rodimus Unicronus' mustache is a reference to Star Trek's episode Mirror, Mirror, in which the mirrored version of Spock rocked a handlebar mustache.

my favorite genre of thew reviews is whenever it's basically just "this is shoddy but I love it!". never fails to make me smile.

My first leader class. Was on sale. Only got my second leader class this week, a Studio Series Blackout that was also on sale.

I laughed so hard the first time I saw this on the shelf. Someone bought it for me, and it was the gateway back in to transformers collecting. I love how weird and bizarre he is. Thank you for the spooktakular review!

3:44 Thew: it rocking that skywarp look Me: wait did you get that figure for this halloween themed video or because it has skywarps colour scheme? Thew: ummmm........ the first thing

The most genuinely terrifying part of this Halloween video was when you briefly reminded me that the Prime Wars Trilogy web series existed. The horror! THE HORROR!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! I love Nemrod, lmao. I totally agree about the actual sports vehicle mode effectively coming across as more threatening and visually impactful in the darker colour scheme; It lends a certain additional sleekness to the design which suggests a more aggressive driving style; It pairs well with high speeds and high energy, which retains the original Hot Rod/Rodimus vibe while successfully meeting the idea of a darker take on the character. (And the Winnebago mode as a hearse would have been such a great way to change the design for a darker concept while maintaining a bigger, chunkier frame... Now I wish we got that, although I'm pleased with how silly a big ol' evil Winnebago is!)

this might be one of the most underrated channels on youtube

12:23 love the 4th wall break there

Nice video as always thew thanks for bring light to a dull year

@ 11:20. So, Rodimus Unicronus has his head up his... Wait, can’t finish the line, KZfaq might burn my house down or something...

2 wholesome TF reviews for Halloween? Thew, you are on fire on review making.

Happy Halloween to you to Thew

You're by far my favorite TF reviewer. I look forward to every video, keep it up.

The red visor combined with the mustache really reminds of the streamer, Dr. Disrespect lol

Thanks Thew. This was the entertainment I needed this morning. What a fantastic way to start off Halloween. 'Rodimus after listening to Motorhead once.' Classic. It was worth the wait.

"Transvolving" A new phrase when your friend fully transitions after HRT

"Snap you like celery" ow. I mean goals

I'm glad I'm not the only one who heard Macho Man's voice when I saw this silly thing. All I could hear in my head when posing him is "Oooh yeeeeeeeeah, I'm 'ere for YOUUUUUUUU, Prime!"

You did it again! Gave me a sensible chuckle, while I watched your review. Awesomely done! Speaking of that mustache, I once visited a show of a German band called Moustasche. They're awesome and you should check them out! Greetings from Bas from the Netherlands!

“What if hotrod owned a a tarantula?” Pffffffff XD spot on as usual Thew

"It's more like an upmarket garbage truck." Ooh, there's an idea. Unicron gets his hands on Hot Rod and wants to reformat him as his new emissary, so he makes him into something like a more mobile version of himself. It's not enough to simply KILL your enemies, but he has to CONSUME them as well. Devour their essence. Make them a part of YOU. All of that kibble delivery system is actually a massive trash compactor and energy converter, making Rodimus Unicronus no longer hunger for energon... but for those who stand in his way.☠

Two videos in one week? This is a Halloween miracle!

A review so soon? You’re spoiling us Thew.

Happy Halloween Thew 🎃

The head sculpt was what made me want this figure.

When you made that Motörhead joke it clicked how similar to Lemmy Kilmister that look is. Black like leather, silver lines like a studded jacket, and that dashing-as-hell handlebar and mutton chop echoing Lemmy’s own look. Like seriously, I can see Rodimus ‘Cron blaring Motörhead’s version of “Hellraiser” while knocking the sprockets out of Optimus, all leading to him saying something like: “You’re enjoying this as much as I.”

One of your best. Utterly brilliant.

Rodimus Unicronus is the fig that got me back into collecting as an adult.

Can we appreciate the Hot Topic Rod joke? I appreciate the Hot Topic Rod joke.

So Rodimus gaining the space winnebago is a metaphor for the responsibilities of leadership! It's taken this 40 something this long to realise that.

Before Siege and Earthrise, I was so sorely tempted by those all-encompassing nearly there POTP Leaders. This video has me thinking of hunting down the evil versions, at least.

I bought this toy when it was available without hesitation when I saw the head sculpt, because it just reminded me of Lemmy and I had to have it.

It took me 4 minutes to notice you matched Rodimus Unicronus' color scheme and layout with your outfit.

'Taint destroying perma-split'. I laughed so hard I started wheezing.

Happy Halloween Thew!!!!

I also love this toy. I've named him Chaos Prime.

I find that having him hold a combiner hand to hold the matrix of chaos looks incredibly badass, especially when posed.

You are spoiling us man, thanks so much

Looks like Rodimus cosplaying as Dr Disrespect xD))))

I Hope Thew Had a Great Halloween!🎃 looking forwards to see what your going to do for a Christmas special 😋

Rodimus Unicronus is basically a Shattered Glass Rodimus Prime.

Your intro just woken up my dad in the middle of the night

Having two Thew's in this was amazing.

Glad we can share enjoyment of POTP Rodimus for being a Hot Rod who turns into a Rodimus!

Roddy Kilmister : literal motorhead

One of my favorite pieces in my collection is the Fansproject Rodimus upgrade kit. It takes the Classics Hot Rod and turns him into a beast with the super cool trailer\weapons platform.

I thought the best cameo was when he showed up in animated... And that is also a great toy!

i like the idea of evil rods trailer making him a garbage truck. I can just hear him go "This time Autobots you're gonna get DUMPSTERED"

Two Thew videos in one week, we are spoiled for sure

The second Hot Rod elbows are so the little arms can come up over the shoulders and cover the splits. Like a huge popped collar of pipes.

That "Master of Puppets" bit had me in stitches XD

1:10 I knew this was coming and I absolutely love it! MASTER, MASTER! Just call my name 'cause I'll hear you scream!!

Never been this early for one of your reviews. I feel like I’m watching a premiere.

I had fun with the mold.

I ended up stumbling onto a site that does 3D printed add-ons and upgrades. They had a scythe that breaks down into a sword, and the shoulder cannons from the machinima animation for UnicRodimus. Pretty affordable too.

Dude I’m bloody rolling listening to this review. All I can see is Rodimus Unicronos driving around playing “ace of spades” Rodimus Savage 🤣🤣🤣🤣

1:26 Commander Class Rodimus : allow me to introduce myself

5:21 - Oh hey! There you go! I've heard some people complain about Rodimus' lack of a battle station (that he always all-the-time has... and calls a BATTLE STATION!), but that works nicely, I think. lol I love my Rodimus, but getting the Hot Rod leg upgrade is definitely an improvement. Would recommend for Unicronus here.

Nice Scott the Woz Reference hidden there Thew

I don't even like transformers but i just love how you talk about things

really good overlay thew, seamless

Love the video... but wow I threw up when the idea of that wedge front catching a knee at high speed was put into my brain.
