Awesome set, especially for a repaint! And thanks for being so thorough in your reviews. I'm actually happy the Classics Hover Bots are coming over to Origins. The red is striking but I hope they re-release the gray 3 pack so I can army build. I'm only a Filmation collector but this guy is too cool to pass up.

Great review, as always! I really appreciate the lengths you always go to with comparisons and parts swapping on the Origins figures. Keep up the great work.

Dayyyuuummm! 10 years passed already since Classics Hover-Bot came to our collection! 😮

Awesome review!! This one looks great and we get soft goods cape!! The Mechanical arm is cool.. I really like the paint scheme used for this figure..

Nice set. What do you want to see revealed at SDCC?

G'day Man Child, yet another fantastic review. I was not interested in buying HTP, but now with your informative review I might just grab one. (I like the interchangeable arms and attachments) Cheers. Thanks for sharing.

Pretty damn cool man! Awesome work like always bro!

The swappable arms and cape are pretty cool! The standout of this set is the Red Hover Robot! Very clever Mattel... we can't have just one Hover 'Bot 😅😅 So that means I have to buy more than one! Or three 😉

I’m glad they the classics ones as it means I can display it with them and vicea versa. Brilliant review as usual. This being one of them store exclusive things means it’s hard work to get here in the U.K. for normal price.

Seems Roboto's blaster attachments fit better with HTP more than Trappie's. 🤔 Nice discovery on the flip-flopping arm! Was hoping that it is, you just verified it! 😅

Fantastic review. Going army build this horde trooper. Already have 20 silver ones. Hopefully smyths will have them up for pre order.

An awesome review of this phenomenal Horde set!

I like your idea to use the Roboto parts. I feel like the silver looks better than the different color of red on the weapon attachments

I didn't pick up Mouse jaw so the extra arm on this is perfect for Metal Boto. Now the tricky part is finding this guy in stores lol. Then again, ToG Merman, Krang and Moss man have been plentiful.

We need more Horde! This line made it felt like the Horde got put aside and they concentrated more on the Snake Men instead. 🤨 They could've given us Bow and Sea Hawk in Origins buck already. She-Ra is so alone. 😢

Very cool set! I wasn’t aware that the cape was made of cloth. I like that because the plastic capes feel a bit awkward to me. On the other hand, though, I get nervous that the cloth might get ripped or stretched out if not handled properly. It’s sort of a debatable trade-off as to which material is better. 🤷🏻‍♂️ It’s really cool that they gave us Hordak’s arm cannon, and the interchangeable weapons definitely make the Horde Trooper Prime feel a bit more special and “important” in the Trooper hierarchy. Trap Jaw’s rifle has a slightly larger peg, which is why it doesn’t fit on the “Roboto” arm all the way. What’s funny is that I’ve recently been opening the early Origins waves with my 4-year-old, and we still have Turtles of Grayskull Mouse Jaw in package (who also reuses Roboto’s weapons for the Metal-Boto build-a-figure), so every time my son looks at it, he says, “Look Daddy, those are Roboto’s!” And I’m like, “Yes, they are!” 😂 He’ll probably do the same thing if and when he sees them with this figure too! At least they’ve changed up the colors instead of literally reusing the same black Trap Jaw accessories for Terroar (which kind of felt lazy to me). The Hover Bot did look identical to the one from Classics, so it’s not surprising they just repainted it. I believe they did the same thing with Mini-Comic Tri-Klops’ glow-in-the-dark ring, if I’m not mistaken. It still works, so I have no issues with that. I can see this set being a bit difficult to track down. Was it supposed to be a Walmart exclusive? If so…ughhh!!! 🙄 ~Damon

I have this figure on preorder as i am a huge Horde Trooper and Horde faction fan. Red is my favorite colour so this figure was a must for me, but i cant help thinking his eyes would look better being white for better contrast. I like the cape but the cloth looks a little cheap, the figure may have looked better with a plastic cape like scareglows or using higher quality fabric, it looks like it holds creases really easily.

Awesome! I need to start getting my figures wherever you do. Some of these places are taking entirely too damn long to get stuff in.

Nice review Ralph! I think this set is coming to BBTS at some point. Too bad they didn't give the hover robot the cool sticker on the Classics one. But other than that, I love it. Looking forward to having this one.

The best is the accessories! Now just waiting for the new eternia fig

Classics hover bots were the very first cartoon collection, lol. This straight-up reuse has to mean we’re getting regular hover bots in Origins at some point. Maybe as a BBTS exclusive?

Cool set!

Nice video again. Not sure if I'm gonna extend my Origins shelf any further, things are getting rather pricey these days........I am tempted though. I wonder if Dragstor will be released for the Horde team?

Super dope 👌

Great review! Been waiting on this figure and no regrets so far. When and where to preorder?

Great review as always thankou for the info hope we get the doom tower or the factory frome the mini comic

awesome

This guy looks cool. Really want him more for the hover bot, to be honest. I like the accessories. Hopefully it’s just a time exclusive at Wallmart and other online stores can get these. They couldn’t even change the date on the bots lol. Got a question. The stand that comes with the bot, will it fit origins Orko?

Hello Manchild! You got this figure already? At the moment in some parts of europe (also mine) the origins fall behind (also for "new" cartoon collectors). Wave 18/19 - CC/Regular/FF we are expecting in September. This month should come Orko FF, Webstor CC, Evilyn CC and this figure...but i doubt that. What is not falling behind are the goddamn motu-turtles (TOG). I'm slowly a little bit sick of that/them.

I'm closely comparing your video info to a couple of Troopers I have on hand. The upper arms are different sculpts.

I can't keep track of this line anymore. Is this a Walmart exclusive? Ever since they released the Cartoon Collection & Turtles Of Grayskull I can't keep track of the Vintage collection. I still don't know WTF is going on with Terroar, Lord Grasp or Vypor. I also don't know what's going on with Turtles Of Grayskull Moss-Man or Mer-Man. I just watched a toy hunt video & the guy's Walmart had 1 Mer-Man hanging there with a ton of Krangs. This confusion has made me lose interest. If Mattel wants to make the line impossible to collect & enjoy then I will take my money elsewhere. I have already moved on & have been focusing on Star Wars Micro Galaxy Squadron. I don't have the patience for the shit Mattel has been pulling in 2024.
