Also 86 Sludge is my favorite 86 Dinobot of the bunch. He may have loose joints, but he is massive, with great proportions, and has a great gun accessory.
@retroandreissueАй бұрын
He's awesome! Looking forward to getting Swoop to finish the team (I'm hoping he's a bit smaller than the other since I think that's in line with the cartoon).

I didn't get 86 Hound (don't need to, I love the Siege one), but Legacy Detritus is proof of just how good the mold is.

Like you, Sludge is what got me back into collecting again after many years. I just kept looking at him, and posing him, and thinking this is the coolest fn thing!

Definitely - you can do a surprising amount of poses with that dino mode - I think his expression is completely different depending how open/closed his mouth is!

You 100% correct on your comparison of these to masterpiece figures. I collect masterpiece, but I think right now the main hasbro line is knocking it out of the part. Keep up the good work.
@retroandreissueАй бұрын
I've been tempted to jump into the masterpiece on several occasions. I keep looking at the Seekers in particular - those to me look fantastic! Thanks for watching and for the feedback
@rickarmstrong9089Ай бұрын
@retroandreissue yeah I would say space and the number of figures you can display between the two lines is considerable. With the quality hasbro is putting out recently you might have made the better choice. Also you are much more likely to complete a collection based on seasons of the cartoon let's say, than to complete it in masterpiece.
@retroandreissueАй бұрын
@@rickarmstrong9089 Yeah, the quality of the figures they do produce is unquestionable but Hasbro's rate of release is obviously faster and the range wider. I'm really wondering what the future holds. If the interest in accuracy continues will we see updated versions in the future - similar to the many versions of prime in Masterpiece. Or like the Star Wars ranges - where classic figures regularly receive tweaks.

Nice video Ha, favourites are super cars and dinosaurs. I’ve got sludge and slag, (1985ish my mum went berserk when she asked my brother what he wanted for his birthday and he said slag) and didn’t realise just how good they were. Thanks for pointing out.
@retroandreissueАй бұрын
They really are great. I remember thinking the Slag name was an odd choice even as a 7 year old! And would be very self conscious saying it out loud to a none Transformer friend!

Could agree more about the collect solid figures but not wanting to go overboard with high prices. I think my Favourite is Blaster. Solid Bot mode. Fantastic Altmode too. Great articulation too. Unironically, the ROTB mainline Arcee and wheeljack are really good too. Solid, Botmodes and fantastic Altmodes. Could easily be used as a base to make a solid legacy Deluxe figures in the future if Hasbro wanted to. Especially the Arcee. Really fantastic for the cheap price they are.

@Exaris79Ай бұрын
LOL, loved the Wheelie stomp. Hasbro should just buy out NewAge or considering that Hasbro is becoming an IP company, it's inevitable that they'll force the 3rd party producers to get licenses for their releases. IMO, NewAge is something that Hasbro should had outsource their Transformers toy development for G1 releases.

Great list.. I’ve come to admire all of these figures you listed. I’m completely satisfied with the Hasbro Generations offerings over the last few years, as opposed to the MP and 3rd party I’ve acquired… i just feel like there’s a solid consistency in quality, engineering, pricing, and transformation involvement that I prefer.
