I love that Starscream actually looks like a jet and not a robot laying down like the Earthrise.

The more I look at Bumblebee, the more I enjoy his design, though I personally enjoy Starscream more, with me using him as a Live action version of Armada Starscream.

"(YOUR LIKES) please give" becomes quieter and quieter with each video soon it will be nothing but silence

Bumblebee honestly looks like an earthmode of the High Moon design, and with the shoulders and door wings this feels like a better Prime design than the Prime design

The change between engines, from what I read, was unity to Unreal 5. Unity really unalived themselves.

I find it funny that you mentioned a Cliff jumper repaint, yet, not the amount of seaker repaints / retools that are probably gonna come from star scream

I think they idea is that they scavenged only the parts that were missing of each of their bodies, and humans had no paint to spare on those, so that is why they have black parts mismatched like that. Damage for both must have been much more extensive on the left side of their bodies. It´d also explain why this Starscream has blue eyes: they probably scavenged those of an Autobot to replace his own. Silverbolt´s maybe? Gotta be a voyager sized autobot used to fly, so it`d be cool.

What you were saying about Bumblebee is hilarious, while I do love the mute psychopath that’s in the movies I do enjoy Yo Mama Gremlin robot as well. Also when redesigning the Transformers while I do love it when the go completely bonkers it’s also very fun to see the “this character but we give em the super soldier serum and also every steroid but the kitchen sink”

To my understanding, at some point the Transformers were knocked offline, the Quintessons invaded and have taken earth over. So humans repaired the transformers with some left over parts, and reactivated (get the name now?) them to save the earth.

I think you forgot to spin Bumblebee's feet around for the alt mode. The back of the feet are supposed to be going out the back. Which is cool cause the heels look like stingers

On Bumblebee, his feet rotate and then flip in for transformation. The back of the feet have exhaust pipes.

5:29 This is the best Official Starscream ever just cause it can spin in the waist area

It's hard to put into words, but... the way that both of these are asymmetric fills me with rage. I almost wanna pay someone to take it off XD

The more I look at that starscream the more I think “I want them to do that as slipstream”

I might be tweaking but I can see a pretty good looking skids getting made outta that bumblebee

Never been too big on Bumblebee until this one finally came out, this is easily my favorite design.

Nice question of the video very thought provoking

I never thought that adding black to starscream,s G1 colors would make a huge difference for an improvement, and yet it does. Personally I prefer the look of Starscream over bumblebee, but the alt modes still are equal to me

I have not been able to find these two anywhere except for a collectors shop while I was visiting Los Angeles, but happy that you enjoyed them

I can’t be the only one that sees the star scream design kind of looks like rid 2015 star screams design, but this is way better because it doesn’t have a terrifying face

Ngl you're right. Starscreams head for this figure does look like sideswipe but without his horns

“YOuR LIkES” *whispers something so softly I can’t hear anything

Bumble bees heads up is for when starscream is flying him around seeing how they are working together against the quints lmao. A whole new world! XD

I got the prime and soundwave 2 pack for christmas and i genuinely love them both. Sheer excellence. Currently waiting on another reviewer who collects primes and loves soundwave to make a video on the set. I may or may not get the bumblescream set, but the primewave set is definantly a really good prime and a really fun wave.

With bumblebee back problems, I also struggle with it. so I decided to leave it out, not to push it in his backpack all the way and now I enjoy these toys more

I personally can’t help but see combiner wars star scream in this, with the chest being the biggest indicator. And I never would have thought the head looked like sideswipe if you didn’t point it out. Good eye! 2:22 also the more you talk about the wfc the more eager I await the roast/review

Starscream’s jet mode gives me vibes to his armada design. Especially if there was no blue

The bumblebee face does look like a mix of his and cliffjumper's but takes the exact opposite direction of a bumper head. Like solid and liquid snake.

Starscrea’s alt mode is reminding me of laserbeak oddly enough

The black-sides might be a sort of battle paint motif with the united factions. It won’t be that but it is an interesting idea.

I want this thing so bad, but there's this little thing called: Being Broke that I suffer from

I'm glad that starscream can do the gerwalk mode, it's my philosophy that every jetformer should have a gerwalk mode built into its transformation

Considering my gamer bee broke & I dont have a starscream, i might pick this up

I've seen how Shockwave is going to look in this game and man, if that design gets a figure with the same level of quality as the four we've already gotten, it would probably be in the running for my favorite Shockwave figure ever. Also, super hyped to see Steve Blum come back to voice Starscream for Reactivate. He's by far my favorite Starscream voice actor (Charlie Adler coming in second), so I'm really excited that between this and Earthspark he's currently the "main" Starscream voice. I'm going to die of excitement if he's in TF One too.

I like these. Now if I can buy them in Canada for the price of a Deluxe and Voyager combined, then these are great! On the other hand, if these are unnecessarily expensive for no reason then I can’t really give these the credit they deserve.

If they do a cleaned up screamer without a tag along figure I'll buy it

Starscreams head looks like hounds 😂

I missed my usual Singapore pick up for this line so I'm hoping they show up locally, but I gotta admit as more time passes the less fussed I'm becoming on getting them

Do you think the Reactivate Starscream mold fits Thundercracker's character? I kinda see offroad VW Beetle in Reactivate Bumblebee's alt mode, but I also see a lot of Choro Q (which is Penny racers in USA) Jazz in there. Skybyte, Superion, and Swindle are confirmed in the new 2025 TF line, codenamed Prime because it contains the 13 Primes. Is 32 bucks a good price for Legacy Needlenose? I can't find it for a reasonable price. My country missed megatons of Legacy Evolution.

I got the Optimus and Soundwave. I passed on this one due to been fed up of so many bumblebees... I have never been much of a G1 Starscream, and every time I got 1 seeker I end up getting the rest. In this case I would rather get the Skywarp than the Starscream. Now as a friend, would you recommend me to get this guys? I have only seen reviews praising them. And you said they are pretty good. Got me thinking.

Starcream head actually look more like Jetfire here

I understand why they aren't saying any release date because they don't want to make false promises and have to constantly push back the date like bendy and the dark revival did

Can't wait for the optimus review. Ended up painting the inside of the windows on my optimus metallic blue and he looks way better

0:08 Reactivate is apparently gonna get a trailer by spring

PERSPECTIVEEND core class dinobot lives it was moved to wave 5 of legacy united we can stop burning down hasbro

I personally like the starscream more, but I can see what you were saying

I wonder, if this game ever does come out will the designs be pretty accurate to the toys? Or will they be radically different in every way.

In short, they maybe not the greatest , but they are quite good for what they are. As for my take, I like them design wise. And as for the question of the video ... What character that wasn't annouced to be in the game would you like to see in this style ?

Compare this to ROTB Bumblebee and you;'ll see the better design with Reactivate Bee. Mainly because you're able to see the front bumper on the Robot mode.

Great review. I enjoy listening to you waste my time😁

The lack of a barrel on bumblebees gun makes me uncomfortable for some reason

Personally, from the teaser trailer I think the song they used feels like a transformers song. Also, definitely picking up these two, they look pretty bada$$

This Starscream provides an absolutely excellent Gerwalk mode too, basically a triple changer.

Retool this Starscream into an accurate 86 one

Starscream jet mode is kind of fire 🔥 I'm meh on bumblebee but the starscream with the asymmetrical colors works for me big time.

I didn't really like bumblebee when I first saw him but in hand he has grown on me a lot and I really like the starscream. I've been working on my own transformers story and I have some of the designs done mainly optimus prime even turned him into a 3d model in blender. And I think these designs especially the starscream will work really well as inspiration

the reactivate starscream is my fav design for starscream and all my life for trying to find the starscream for my shelves this is it.... now only if they did a voyeager earthspark soundwave to complete my decepticon 4 megatron - gen selects super megatron starscream - reactivate starscream Soundwave - currently empty shockwave - energon, prime, studio series dotm, authentics, animated (purple colours) yeah litterally any of these

I like this set a lot. So much that I preordered it (and the Optimus/sound wave pack as well) as far as price goes, I think it’s a bargain, two larger than standard deluxes for 60 bucks (that was what I paid at least) is awesome!

Hey when are u gonna cover those massive amounts of leaks we got?

the sad part is this line obliterates the gamer edition figures, which is SUPER sad when you think these are meant to be video game tie in figures, whereas gamer edition is meant to be dedicated screen accurate figures at maineline price, and yet these have clearly got much better budgets and much much better effort time and care put into them

Something that makes me more cautious about the game is that I remember hearing that it'll be sorta inspired by Warframe. As someone who spent a bit too much playing it, it both gives me positive hope and makes me afraid that they might turn the game into another "Warframe killer" and it'll not live up to that name, like pretty much every other game that tried it. If it'll try to make it's own identity while taking some ideas from Warframe, that'd be the best option, but kind of unlikely.

Another Bumblebee who looks like someone cosplaying 'Bee. At least this time, that only applies to 'bot mode: *the vehicle mode looks great!* Based exclusively on this video (no hands on, no even watching someone else's review). I'm also not saying the 'bot mode looks bad, I just think it is chasing a self-defeating goal; "upgrading" Bumblebee into a bigger "warrior" bot. *That's not Bumblebee.* I mean, technically it is because they've made him that in many, *many* different series. The problem is, once you try to force him that way, you lose what makes him unique. As a long time fanboy of questionable tastes and reasoning skills, I see only two solid approaches for Bumblebee: G1, the short, chubby, wise-cracking Bumblebee TFA the short, slender, wise-cracking Bumblebee. Doesn't mean Bumblebee can't be a fighter, but if we're describing roles, he's a scout or spy, not a "warrior" designed for the front lines. Forcing him that way causes him to overlap too much with characters like Cheetor, Hot Shot, and Sunstreaker in terms of aesthetic, personality, or both. Granted, I also feel like Bumblebee deserves flight capabilities, even if through external means; see his Action Master and Classics counterparts. I think also a canceled TFA figure... *Not that I didn't enjoy the video.* I found it fun and informative. I probably like the Starscream more than PE (reminds me of one of the few positives from Energon). Even with what I've just said, this still looks like a very good Bumblebee. I just wish they hadn't tried to make him look like a svelte warrior again.

Will you be reviewing the reactivate Optimus and Soundwave pack soon?

I think in the game you can customize and upgrade the characters a bit and the asymmetrical colors might be how they're trying to portay designs that don't stay consistent throughout the game

Which pack would you say is better to get if you could only get one? The optimus seems to be the best out of the 4 but soundwave looks bad

This game taking so long to release is just like how long it toke for spiderman 2 ps5 taking 3 years to make. Kind of like across the spiderverse taking 4 years At this point I'm kind of certain reactive won't release till 2025 or 26. Let's just hope it was all worth it and if its able to compete with its previous games like Devastation, War, and fall.

How do you even have that image? What have they done to my boy?

I really like the reactivate designs, I want to see what more characters like sideswipe, bluestreak or the combaticons look like

I believe there were supposed to be news at the gaming awards but nothing came up the devs even apologize about having nothing to show prior the awards. Maybe it's just me I see this as a red flag. NGL if it wasn't for leakers I'd forgot this game existed. In the game I disliked how long Bee's legs were. We definitely needed a game, the last game we had was devastation and that came out what like 2015. As for the movie do you mean design wise or character wise. Becasuse designs wise we all know MB didn't care about G1 designs, he even started he was gonna be doing his own thing. Character wise I just saw him as a guardian like as he's always been except his voice box problem is the most convoluted shit ever. And I love the film's (except the 5th one)

Well I'm finally early I do wish the two pack was actually available in the area I go to sometimes

Now if only I could find either of the two packs anywhere

So did you use two different images on Starscream's Jet Mode?

They’re quite good, but wished that we get more Reactivate game new soon. Love the Bumblebee more than the Starscream.

I definitely like the Starscream a lot more than the Bee. He just has a presence that the other doesn't. And for the first time, I feel like the wings sticking straight out is not the right choice for the design. What I like to do is have them angled backwards and pushing them slightly into the shoulders so they stick straight up. Not sure what character it reminds me of but it looks so much cooler

2:09 I was always confused about why it was attached to the guns being attached to the shoulder, mainly because it seems like your doing too much just to aim (Even if it’s just lifting your whole arm instead of just your forearm)

These toys gone really hard that they make SS WFC line look even worse. This is how you're supposed to make "Studio Series Gamer Edition". Really love Bee and Scream aesthetic, not a big fan of null ray on forearms thou.

Your my favorite KZfaqr.

These are pretty good versions of these characters especially starscream the head and nullrays are a miss but I’d take this over recent chug versions. Both of these 2 packs pricy yea but still good sets it’s just a shame the game is in limbo and these could be the only rise/reactivate packs we get for a long time, I’d always wanna see shockwave, megatron, ironhide, and sideswipe another run of 2 packs

i really enjoy this two pack. Starscream to me is great, though the only i don't like is the blue eyes. fortunately, i had a red Gundam Marker and painted his eyes red and it looks much better.

Bumblebee is such a good redesign of the character I think he is my favourite bumblebee design ever I hope the next version of bumblebee has inspiration from this one and the g1 design like a combination of the two more so then it is

Maybe it’s just me, but something about this Starscream having blue eyes feels off. I _think_ this is supposed to be him on the Autobots side, but even still, the blue eyes look odd. I would have preferred his usual red eyes as they look cooler. There’s something about a “good guy” character with scary looking eyes that’s just more interesting to me.

I'm sixteen now so I can swear. I will say it these two and the sound wave and Optimus are fucking awesome. P.s my friend has these guys.

Will there be a "What's the Best" starscream

These actually look pretty cool I’m not sure I’ll get them tho

What do you think of blue eye Starscream I don’t know why it’s become a thing in recent media And I’m not completely sure if I like it or not

SS looks like he has depression

6:08 As for bumblebee, ive seen the14th prime say the same thing but after a while they figured out they just had to do it another way, i forget how tho Also you forgot to rotate the feet in his altmode

The court finds you guilty of slander against the high moon designs. What do you have to say for yourself?

Yeah I absolutely loved both of these sets and i'm not a gamer

cant wait for reactivate to absolutely blow ass on a level like forza motorsport 2023 and starfield

the black parts are supposed to be battle damge either burns or replaced parts.... though is it me or is the one on starscream reminding me of the roft tatoos.... it can't just be me... right?

I want starscream to have red eyes, just my personal preference, he still looks good tho

Beescream was a much cooler name than Bumblescream, but, you do you

I would love to see this set straight up repainted as Cliffjumper and Skywarp - my only Cliiff is the Buzzworthy WFCE repaint, with all the things to hate about that mold, and Skywarp is always the Seeker picked for low-production exclusives so the giant Combiner Wars one and LGC core with a slingshot instead of null rays are it for him, versus VOYs for WFCS Redwing, Thundy, and Screamer. (And no coneheads but Toxitron Collection Cloudburst and Cyberverse Ramjet-with-Thrust's-fans, but I'm not as annoyed about them.) I never need another Starscream as I loathe the character, but I also refuse to pay 4-5x on the collector's market for a Skywarp, whether it's the cool BSG Viper like Siege mold or the Earthrise almost-F-15 upscaled from a now 20 year old deluxe mold, double packed with a Thundercracker I don't care about.

Starscream's weapons are way too Skywarp

Can’t wait for reactivate

0:39 I like Reaxtivate more

So, I have a question for you. Starscream. Do you have the tail fins oriented opposite angle of the large wings intentionally? I think the "proper" way is for them to be flipped up, same angle as the big wings, resting slightly above them. The reason I ask, is because I keep going back and forth on that step, because I like the way both orientations look. Also, I don't think the way you have the tailfins, in jet mode is "proper" either, but I'm not conflicted on that part. That's EXACTLY how I put them, because I mean, yeah look at it lol.

I heard that the game is done and we're gonna see the marketing campaign soon

As far as the impossible hood flap on bee. I had the issue, to the point where I'd literally give up, and go backwards, not transforming him. I'm not sure what I did honestly, but for some reason, I don't seem to have the issue anymore. I do know I'm more careful, going from car to bot. I go ahead, and get the neck flap, and hood flap making out, before I push that chunk to it's final position, and am careful not to push it too far. Maybe try that. I may have just worn down the stuck areas, but perhaps try the way I described, and see if that makes it any easier for you. That by miles is my favorite bumblebee of all time. I mean, my guy looks like he is here to whoop your ass, them f your girl in front of you lol😊
