    Peaugh - I love his reviews, very informative, concise and to the point.

    Figure I will throw some of the unusual choices out there.

    Moggie215 - I just love his videos. Dude is just so happy and positive about life and Hot Toys.

    - The guy comes off as a know it all, but one of the only people on youtube that reviews vintage figures on a regular basis. If you like Kenner Batman figures, you need to watch this guy. He also does stuff like toybiz X-men and MMPR.

    peaugh and to much lesser extent TJOmega.

    i wait for peaugh to do reviews. TJOmega's look more professional, but he just rubs me the wrong way. now as for Peaugh he does the review and talks abit about the figure and even the character.

    Vangelus and Thew. Vangelus because his are entertaining and funny as hell, and Thew is nice and quick and gives a solid opinion about the toy. Everything else I'd honestly rather just read a written review rather than watching some guy ramble for 10mins, unless I really want extensive detail about a figure I'm on the fence on.

    Against the rules to discuss off-site drama, so best not to discuss this.

    I love peaugh, he's the guy who inspired me to do my own review so yeah peaugh all the way!

    and as for Sean long.... he's not a bad guy. I just think he's aimed for kids.. (oops)

    I like Vangelus, Peaugh, Emgo, FxFranz (for his MU stuff), TJ Omega, Timey2Whimey.

    Mostly, I enjoy Thew and Vangelus's videos though. Very entertaining.

    I don't watch Seanxlong unless he's got some MU stuff I'm trying to figure out if I wanna buy or not. I also don't watch Optibotimus, but for reasons I don't need to add (because its off-site drama!)

    all i want from a reviewer is:
    a.) knowledgeable
    b.) witty/having some fun
    c.) good prep work/ setup
    d.) clear view of the figure being transformed

    when i started watching reviews, i hated coming across kids who stood in front of windows with the sun coming in at the lens, blacking out the video, or they rambled on and on like they couldn't just read the back of the box, stuff like that.
    I enjoy Vange1us, Peaugh, and Thew; but i tend to rotate between them depending on what i need at the time.

    Vangelus is my favorite. Peaugh's not so bad either. Everyone else...might on occasion, but it all depends if I'm looking for something in particular about a toy (does it have the same QC issue as mine if that's the case, transformation I can't figure out, etc.) and that's the first vid in the Youtube search.

    I am glad you did. Nice videos. Keep it up! :)  Us lesser-knowns have to stick together, lol. I am also going to subscribe.

    Can I plug myself in return? I try to be humble and let my videos speak for themselves. I know I started off crappy but I think over time I have improved a great deal in comparison to when I started. I haven't turned out a new video in a while because my basement flooded. It is all repaired now and I have a new review table and set-up ready to go. :) 

    Cool, I'm subscribing! :)
