    I can't believe nobody mentioned "thecollector75". Not sure if he is a member on here, but his reviews are excellent.

    I just started watching Vangelus and hey, that guy's pretty funny! Optibotimus is not, like some people from another website have said, he tends to gush, saying things like "OH, GORGEOUS! And on the Arcee review, he went into his thoughts about not giving women a bad body image...why??? You're here to review the toy, not to give your social opinion. Also, he is the rudest individual I have had the displeasure of conversing with. He always makes fun of peoples' grammar in the comments, then when people argue back, he calls them rude. He just treats people like trash sometimes, and it's not hard to make people angry. It's not exactly good for his image. I once told him to think about how the other person would feel if he replied to his comment, and I said think about it and it would help you become a better reviewer and more people will subscribe and like you. He answered back "I'm not your problem and you're not my problem." He then deleted my comment. He's just a rude, arrogant individual that whines about toys.
    Us subscribers and fans got him to where he is today, and he just dismisses them.

    Peaugh is very informative with his reviews and was my go-to reviewer for a time. Nowadays I watch more of Emgo-- also very informative reviews, but you can tell he has a blast doing them, what with the skits at the end of each review and all the jokes he makes. Not that Peaugh is bad by any means -- he does his reviews well enough and he's still perfectly respectable as a critic -- it's just that Emgo is a lot more fun.

    Sometimes I watch Baltmatrix's reviews for older toys (mostly Beast Wars figs, his reviews for those are excellent) and occasionally the guys from Your Transformer Needs, but those are about all of the guys I get opinions from. I did watch mitchsantona's review of Sky Lynx, though, and it was a blast. I might need to watch more of him at some point.

    I really appreciate it when a reviewer answers comments below the video. That being said i watch them all personally.

    It's Thew Adams. Cannot believe he wasn't included on the Poll.

    Second best has to be TJOmega.

    Vangelus is the ONLY reviewer that has ever made a video I will sit down and watch. No offense to the rest, but I skip about in their videos a ton, usually to avoid watching them struggle with figuring out how to transform the figure. They may all be informative, but Vangelus is the only one that's actually entertaining.

    I used to like Optibotimus and PEAUGH a lot more. But, Emgo gets my vote. He always has the most insightful, and detailed transformations, and I love his skits at the end. PEAUGH is really good, but he makes too many mistakes these days with Transformations, or he just breezes through a step I have to rewind to see, sometimes without success. He's, still really good. Just not as great as he used to be. If I were to rank I would say 1. Emgo, 2. PEAUGH, 3. Optibotimus being the top three transformer video reviewers. I do have to give some props, and an honerable mention to Vangelus for his unique reviews. He has his own style I appreciate.
