I can only imagine what horrors PE saw when he googled “beast wars silverbolts feet”.

Jesus. I knew you weren't gonna like it, but I didn't expect you to DESPISE it. This is why I'm glad I don't care for other people's opinions more than some people do, because I bet some people will be frothing at the mouth for ALL of this. Not me though, this is entertaining as all hell, even if I love the figure

I'll give you this, he is way better than whatever Beast Machines Silverbolt was. Of course, *'she'* can't find us here.

I remembered buying this and was weirded out why he had some random hinge joint on his chest for no reason and brought back my PTSD of the Legacy Insecticons

When I saw his headsculpt the only thing I could think was "I can't let you do that, Star Fox!"

I feel like if the modern Beast Wars figures were screen accurate, people would complain that the sculpts are too smooth or featurless or whatever

The fake hinges are show accurate...

Silverbolt and Rattrap are tied as my favorite transformers. And I'm in the same boat as you. Though, I'm not so much furious as I am disappointed. Congratulations Fuzors Silverbolt for getting a 2nd figure. I just wish I could love you. The Transarts Silverbolt cannot come fast enough.

Yes I do miss the question of the video. I never knew how much a waist swivel would hurt a figure so much

Where is the paint? They are saving it for the show "accurate/ premium" 2-pack version they are going to eventually release further down the line.

I was super worried when the first images leaked, thought it was going to be shit. Was pleasantly surprised by the in-hand feel of the figure, plus the posing and transformation are in fact quite strong.

I was wondering if I was the only one that thought the figure just didn’t feel like silverbolt. You can’t believe how happy I am for you to review this. Thank you so much!

I feel like it would help you to know that the lead designer on this toy was from Takara. Silverbolt was his first toy, and he is the world’s biggest silver bolt fan.

The extra chest hinge is there to prevent paint scuffing on the wolf's nose. The clearance is so tight there, it's better to flip the head assembly out to make way when getting it in and out of the robot's chest cavity.

This is the best example of when the TF team go too animal accurate than cartoon accurate on a toy, still both modes look sick though. Silverbolt is awesome and we need the rest of the Maximals and Predacons in Beast Wars!

"It's Legacy Shitbolt" And that's all I need to know about your thoughts on this figure : >

To be honest, i think the wolf headsculpt looks kinda adorable, but that might be just me :p

You are right about the unfinished wings. That's unforgivable.

The one take I will 1000% fight you on: Every transformers figure NEEDS a waist swivel. Take that away and you practically have a brick of a figure.

mmm, i keep getting into situations where its like, "so heres the figure" and i'm like "hmm not bad it looks good" And then it replies with "THIS THING BLOWS SO HARD MY HOUSE SHOOK" how do i keep finding these situations!??!!?!??!?

3:42 Bro got confused then angry💀💀💀

HELL YEAH NEW PERSPECTIVE END UPLOAD why am I always so hyped for every new video from perspective end

I grabbed legacy united starscream instead. Curious for your thoughts on him hopefully at some point. These figures are almost $38 now with tax at target

That “WHY” sounds like something out of smiling friends

i think its a very good toy and a ok version of the guy

So I wasn’t going crazy when I thought “ why do the wings feel like they should be higher”

Speaking of German shepherds, how do you feel about K-9? I know you didn’t like Wolfang when you reviewed him a few years back, but it’s a pretty solid retool.

I saw this at Target and put him in my basket. After about five minutes of staring at his lifeless face I put him back on the shelf. Silverbolt *NEEDS* an expressive face!

I bought him sight unseen cause I love Silverbolt, and when I got him out of the box it just felt... wrong. The fake joints, the weird proportions, the goofy headsculpt. And then his beast mode just made things worse. I got him on sale but was already thinking of returning him, now your video is kind of pushing me more in that direction (Admitted he has grown on me since the first day, but seeing the original figure next to him really drives it home how subpar he is)

I don't always agree with Perspective, but man when he makes me laugh he makes me LAUGH mooseknuckle onwards had me LOSING it

This is definitely a solid figure, but he could definitely stand for much more loyalty to the original show model and more wing articulation

I never realized how bad the compromises were just to put the waist swivel on this Silverbolt 😂🤣

I really want to get the original. This thing looks fucking freaky. But I cant afford it because it is so expensive. I’m just going to assume the Beast Wars Reissue line in cancelled because it just as never had an announcement in like a year, so i’ll see what i can afford on eBay. The original Fuzor looks great.

This entire review needs to be remained "rost a mans: legacy silverbolt" because it what is it.

From the pictures I thought this guy was a retool of the tiger hawks but it isn’t so count me pleasantly surprised I probably won’t get one but it’s cool they made a new mold

What do you think are the best designs from transformers rise of the beasts

I did not realize just how much better the original looks than the new one. I was totally 100% in on this until you showed the transformation that had random parts that don't do anything. I'll just get pounded on Ebay for an original. Thanks for the really in-depth review here.

All i can say is atleast he's reunited with the dark poison of his heart They can now be terrible figures together now

Why do the hind legs on the beast mode look like they belong to a bulldog

While I do see your complaints, and can agree with a few of them, mainly about the wings being too low on the back and the beast mode tail feathers being too short on its rear, I still really enjoy this figure. I’d give a solid 8.5/10. The only major thing I would liked to have seen given to this figure are calf swivels. Calf swivels would have allowed the front beast mode feet to go perfectly flat when the legs aren’t tabbed in; the way they are now doesn’t allow for them to be completely flat against any flat surface when they’re untabbed. But again, I do really enjoy this figure, from robot mode to beast mode. It also helps that I don’t have a preference for realistic beast modes against toon-accurate beast modes for the Generations figures. I can see the appeal for both options, I just don’t have a major draw to picking one side over the other. Of course the biggest thing this figure does for me is get me antsy for a new Quickstrike figure. While that Quickstrike most likely would have realistic animal elements to his beast mode, which would displease you, so long as it’s made entirely out of solid plastic it would automatically became a better figure than the original version. That original Quickstrike was 80%-90% clear plastic, and even though I got a brand new copy it did not take that many months for the feet become loose as all hell. It definitely needs an upgrade. Also, side tanget, if we were to get a new Optimal Optimus figure, what size class do you think it should be? On the one hand, a leader class size would make him more affordable. On the other hand, he was the largest character in the show so making him commander class would not only allow for a more accurate size, but also a lot more features and posability.

They should’ve replaced Beast Wars Silverbolt with G1 Silverbolt and make this year’s combiner (if there is going to be one) G1 Superion.

Update: Hes a fantastic toy! Super excited to see what my sister sees in him, i have no complaint except maybe more of a knee bend

And they got rid of the coolest thing ever his firing Wing missiles

I’m so glad I got the original shortly this one was announced. This one was definitely one of those things where in robot mode it looks off and the beast mode…it’s proportions are bad. It looks as though the front legs are either too long or the body from the front is too thin.

My only problem with this thing is that it can’t do the robot mode missile thing from the show. Also (5:19) the elbows bending pulling out the beast mode leg is actually show accurate. (Crazy, I know)

Outstanding review PerspectiveEnd!! I was blinded by my desire to have a figure of BW Silverbolt in my collection, I had no idea just how numerous his flaws were. lol Hopefully if we get a Legacy figure of Quickstrike it will be similar to Tigerhawk instead of Silverbolt. Keep on being amazing.

5:31 does wolfang count?

Kingdom Cyclonus was also one of my favorite, but literally every copy had brown limbs, like they oursourced to Weijiang for the materials. I got a Generations Select Cyclonus for that reason.

Pe what’s your favorite Weezer album?

hey my g i found a 3d printed set for the og silverbolt toy that brings down the wings and extends the legs by bynt-matrix

I know that feeling, one of your favourite characters being made an alright toy, but because you already liked the character a lot before you notice how wrong the figure feels. The explanation for this I think it is just that the it looks accurate but is so limited by how crap the toy is designed which prevents it from being peak that you know could have been avoided, making it a missed opportunity so big you resent the toy for it

PerspectiveEnd posts, Me: I have been summoned

oh lord save this thing you literally had to put the review on hold at the start just to be able to swear curse at it

Glad to know your an Silverbolt fan. I can definitely see what you mean about Silverbolt, it’s an odd figure that could’ve been improved with some better paint tbh

Ngl, when talk of a Silverbolt figure was going to be made, I thought it was just going to be a minor retool of Tigerhawk such a different head(s) and new color scheme. But to my surprise and shock, they made a new mold for Silverbolt.

This and Animated Bee are my first United figures and I gotta say, I love em both. Even with my love for the character I just, have a great time messing with it. The Fuzor aspect is something I love and am excited to get Tigerhawk for, and hoping we get Quickstrike soon too. Maybe they'll do another premium finish line if they make those two. Animated Bee, it's a fun little compact goober that takes me back to my childhood. Glad you liked that one, as for this I'm sorry you didn't enjoy it as much. Same with SS Rhinox and Origins Jazz considering the former I directly recommended.

Honestly, finding a used inbox old figure from the original beast wars would only be slightly more expensive than this. Like double the normal price at most for an amazing figure

Video of the year. Bravo.

I was definitely underwhelmed with the figure too. For me it was the colors. Repainted it myself and it was already x10 better. Just a bit of drybrush on the fur and wings took it from a 6 to an 8.

Those extra hinges and molded detail in the chest and shoulder confused the HELL out of me in the transformation, since I tend to try to not use instructions. I enjoy the figure though, but I guess once I get to his part of the show my opinion may change, still only on episode 5 or 6 of season 1

The fake hinges are for accuracy

Great roast. Glad you like the figure.

Honey the new PrespectiveEnd video just dropped Edit: WHY do shitbolt's wings look like that?!

I'd like to see you review a figure you know sucks but still love

Is it really that bad? I really like silverbolt, and I want this figure. So should I get it?

When did they ever give an indication that they would move away from the realistic beast modes? The behind the scens for tm2 megatron mentioned how hard it was for their pc to render the model due to all the scales they added for dragon mode. Tigerhawk they showed a diagram of what sculpting parts were reused from tigertron and airazor. The realism isn't going to stop anytime soon by the looks of things

At first, I was like, that's not so bad, and then you turned it to its side

The chivalrous hero fuzor of the maximals.

The intro reminded me of this quote lol “Paul Mcartney called us Shitnot” (Slipknot reference)

Not gonna lie, this video was quite suprizing, the fact that Bolt is one of your favorite BW characters ( hi to a fellow flying wolf fan ), or the reaction at the end resolt. As for my take,. the robot mode is dicent, but I do agree the head look's rather stiff. And the beast mode has wonky proportions to say the least, especially in the back. And as for the question of the video... As far as fuzors go, if you could pick, what non-show characters you would liked to see get a new fig and why?

Yeah, this is looking like an easier and easier pass for me. I was tempted at one point because I liked the novelty of having a half-wolf/hawk creature, but he's not for me. I never had Silverbolt as a child, so I have no emotional attachment to him. On the show, he had that whole Romeo & Juliet thing going on with Blackarachnia, and the fanfare jingle that played whenever he showed up on-screen was kinda cool... but otherwise he seemed like a Gary Stu.

His stomach comes off on pegs

Dang yea this figure does have quite a few problems. I’ll still get it since I need a chug silverbolt but I realise the transart silverbolt will definitely be a necessary purchase

Why do you speed your voice up in videos?

Ok so like did I just steal your sleep schedule? because I was having the exact same issue until recently

Too bad, I am loving my own Silverbolt. And I think you could mount the wings over the shoulder without taking away the waist, just build them like Siege Starscream

Welp right bicep tab broke off the first time i moved his arm. Looks like i'm buying the 3rd party one.

When I looked at it in images I knew he was going to be terrible he just looked so uncanny

Also, to someone who grew up with Silverbolt being a Concorde and one of the Aerialbots. . . This REALLY looks nothing like him!!

I had a feeling something was off about Silver but I couldn't put a finger to it.

To say this was unexpected is an understatement.

While I'm sad you hated it, I was still excited to see it up for review. Silverbolt was integral to my childhood, so I'm just pleased to have another of him after 30 years.

I think the robot mode is good, but I agree with you on the beast mode. It’s the most compromised by the waist swivel. I had the original toy and the new figure’s beast mode just doesn’t hit the same. The snarled expression, bulkier upper body, and curved talons made him look totally radical and gave him so much sauce as the kids say, but the new figure doesn’t have those so it’s just sauceless 😔

I’m just glad to have a modern Silverbolt to go with Blackarachnia. The original is definitely better, but he’s too short to fit with Blackarachnia. That’s literally the only reason I bought him. Also, I really like him.

I think the feet were changed to make it easier for him to stand since his original feet are shaped weird Even so it’s kind of a stupid thing to complain about, no one cares about the feet on any figure unless they make it impossible for it to stand

By far the angriest pe has gotten recently

At this point the colors are wrong on purpose so we buy the premium finish version 2-3 years later

still want him though, also jesus your sleep schedule is bad. i thought going to sleep at 2 am almost every night was bad

This figure and Rhinox and Tigatron were the only Kingdom/Legacy Bw figures I didn’t pickup just because they didn’t look fun to handle

Bought this along side BB Megatron and never really gave it any thought since Peak was on the shelf beside him but... ya, I can't help but agree. I am fine with him, but this could have been WAY Better. Mine also has the issue of loose wings, they are so floppy you'd wear he broke a bone Either way, he is now holding Blackarachnia in his arms between the Maximals and Predacons on my shelf and aslong as he can do that, thats great

Truth be told, the only thing I'm bothered by is the tail. His tail should not be that short. They also shouldn't have done that to the feather arrows/bombs

I grabbed Legacy Silverbolt, not because I'm attached to the character or wanted the figure. I grabbed it since it was 30% off and I already have a Kingdom Blackarachnia

I’m not sure I should be blessed or ashamed that my eyes are idiots/untrained, cuz I legit didn’t notice these sins until you said it

Damn I just had a staredown between this and animated Optimus to get earlier today. Sorta regretting not prime but I still like silverbolt regardless of its inacuratecies and flaws cause I cant seem to find a good condition silverbolt and this is the newest figure of him.

I’m really hoping we get the arialbots with a WFC look in the legacy line, I’m sure this is gonna F with that 😢

The shoulder hinges are from the show, same as the chest hinge, that's not toy accuracy that's screen accuracy...of course Silverbolt had those in the show for toy accuracy so it comes back around, but I like them. I agree about the wings, hope a third party steps in and gives us big wings with forward hinges, not sure if anything can be done about the tail feathers. The face feels wrong because it's neutral and Silverbolt was constantly making expressions or tilting his head in confusion.

I think the hinges were there because the show model had them. He did. I've rewatched Beast Wars at least six - seven times over the course of six years. Don't argue with me, boy.

Is this the new ER Cliff Jumper?

Honestly, the first thing that I noticed when I saw this figure was just how far apart his arms looked. All his other problems could still be there but just the way his arms look is so weird to me that I can't bring myself to buy him.

New Silverbolt so off the mark, you didn't even have Blackarachnia step on him. Now to track down an OG version. YEEEESSSSS.
