    What else is new. PvP just like to talk shit out his ass lately. Kinda feels like wants to be the first one to “catch something”, or “discover something new”.

    I don’t even watch his reviews anymore. Emgo’s reviews may not be as on point, lighting wise, but at least he’s honest with his reviews.

    Interesting. It still fits really well in the bayverse, but I get it's not supposed to be. Nonetheless it looks incredible

    Something like that. Still remember when he was saying 86 Swoop would be a Voyager based off a rumor which was kinda proven false by the designer at the time.
    I feel like it fits more with the BB stuff.

    Thank you! Unfortunately the perfect lighting only lasted long enough for me to get the one pic.
    Yeah agreed. It may be detailed and panely but it isn't bayverse looking at all, especially with those colors. It's more "gritty comic book" style, ala the original artwork, although it does look really cool.

    Agreed, also just it looks to much like Waspinator to be Bayverse lol and yeah the bright green and yellow I don't think fits with the Bayverse style. But yeah like most of his other drawings it is a cool design. And if Waspinator has an Earth or Cybertronian mode, a helicopter is the way to go.

    I've been posting a lot of pictures of this lad recently. It might be one of the best figures I own, breakages and all. It's just so much fun to pose PXL_20230318_002610467.jpg

    They're just LEGO chains. You can buy them from the pick-a-brick store.

    They seem like molded soft rubber chains rather than LEGO pieces.

    Eh PVP just said he thinks it looks like a bayverse design, not that it was one. After seeing the review there wasn’t much misleading, he just likely wasn’t aware of the artist behind it.

    As for Emgo, Idk about honest so much as by the numbers. I stopped watching Emgo lately for anything beyond transformations or size comparisons because, to me, he honestly doesn’t say much useful. He just tells you what you already see and doesn’t say anything about quality, or how a transformation is, or how the paint holds up. Unless a figure is straight up garbage he says the exact same things for all of em.

    idk for 3p stuff he kinda isn’t helpful to me.

    He really is, wish others could be like Mirage.

    But I think it would be cool if they did Bumblebee in this style instead of doing the transformation they always do now. Would be different and also better kibble management.

    They come with hexbug Junkbot canasters. I bought a few a few months back, and realized how useful the chains can be Screenshot_20230317-200608.png Screenshot_20230317-200552.png

    The other parts can also make some good custom fodder

    Pretty good. I just wish there was a little more movement in the cheetah mode, that you can have poses of him running like a Cheetah.

    I have yet to open Airazor, but I hope to use the Maximal cast with AOE Slash for a Maximal Dinobot.

    I didn’t watch it, but the title actually says movie verse, or something like that.

    IMHO, all reviewers should know what they’re reviewing, especially reviewers with such a huge following.
    I get what u mean abt Emgo, but at least he’s not like, “this has got to be the best figure Hasbro has given us” for like every other review. It’s like he’s kissing major ass.. which to each their own.

    There have Been a few times too, where he’s looked a bot, and been like “I dare say this reminds me so much of (filling in the blank)”, just bcs the bots he’s comparing have the smallest detail in common.

    I get that that’s his job, but I personally don’t like people that a say stupid shit, just to try to be catchy, or trendy.
