@MellowGaming
You're making me want toys I haven't budgeted for again. Never owned a G1 Blaster or Soundwave. If only there was a perfect time to do so when they were both readily available right now.
@n.jayhigley522
These should automatically be "Thumbs Down" because of the lack of decals.
@Takeshi357
One thing that's annoyed me about G1 Steeljaw ever since somebody pointed it out...the sunburst pattern

Just so you know, both Blaster, and Radi-Casse Robo’s rifles can also be plugged into their backs to disguise them as an "antenna" for their alt modes as well. There is a hole on either figure’s back that will hold the handle of their rifles in place, and makes them look a lot more complete, and aesthetically pleasing. This same feature was advertised on the back of the modern Legacy release of the mold used for this character as an "Evo-Fusion" technique in what I’m guessing was an attempt to add more play value to the figure. So technically, both figures do possess weapon storage.

Huge f’n smile on my face as soon as I saw the thumbnail 😊. For some reason, I love the boombox bots, Blaster and Soundwave, even though for alt modes they make little sense in groups of vehicles 🤣.

Collecting stopped to be affordable for people not in USA
@kidchuckle
we need a missing Link Optimus treatment for 》》》》 Soundwave/blaster
@arunca190
The original loooks waaaay better IMO
@sukmykrok3388
The last reissue of Soundwave I got was for the 25th anniversary. As much as I love these, and as much as these reissues blatantly hit my nostalgia button, I can't justify buying these classics again and again considering the leaps and bounds made on the newer versions.

I was turning 11 in 1984 so was an older transformers fan so didn’t get many as my mum was trying to get me out of toys, but a girl I went to junior school with had Soundwave and I was blown away by it, as good as modern cartoon accurate toys are, these old G1 toys are brilliant, it’s great newer fans get to enjoy them
@TheAutisticOwl
Honestly, I like how Blaster looks with his extended legs. Makes it look like hes wearing some fancy cargo shorts and i find that very fun and charming.
@JaceyMitchell
I wasn't even alive for G1 (was born in 2000), and I honestly like the fact that his Soundwave's kids are cassettes. I don't see any reason to update them to something more future-proof. In a world where giant transforming robots are out to conquer the earth's energy sources, and decepticon jets and autobot cars somehow need to scale together well enough to have them be able to fit in hand-to-hand combat when in reality an F-15 dwarfs a regular sized car to such a degree that most Autobots should look like hobbits at best (not to mention we have a space shuttle as one of the limbs of a combiner, and he is roughly the same size as the Jeep on the same team, and a freakin' motorcycle on one of the other teams),
@mcart4762
Appreciate you opening yours as I intend to keep mine sealed! Love these releases though
@TheVeryAngryGoose
I will watch the new uploads on loop of it means Sixo keeps making more videos ❤️
@atomD21
There is something just so undeniably pleasing about the G1 figures that I never fully appreciated as a kid when the first came out. These redesigns make these iconic figures just pop in a way they never have before!
@TTMMH42
As a huge fan of the cassette transformers I really appreciate that they went above and beyond to give us a fresh take on these guys. Would love to see a retro cassette pack that gave us some of the more neglected cassettes like Slamdance, Squalkbox, slugfest overkill.
@robotlorekeeper9880
Your eye for detail, excellent camera work and easy-on-the-ears voiceover made this a total joy to watch, and it’s really solidified the appeal of these two for me. I was interested before, but the close attention to Soundwave’s paint and stickers(!) has really made me appreciate how this is a full-on alternate take on a classic rather than a slight overhaul in the name of a cute throwback.
@ZeeTheNerdyVampire
I was very back and forth on this release of Soundwave but I can happily say you've convinced me to go for it. Great video as always and I love the comedic bits thrown in
@dustyyshellz1320
I really like the extended legs look
@manjackson2772
I really like the placement of Laserbeak's eyes there. The 'eyeslit' moulding really reads more like cheekbones to me, putting the eye on them feels like it's too low down. Birds don't tend to have that much of a brow, after all.
