[@endersage3514]

Ben Dittrich Ultra Magnas: Ain't nobody got time that!

[@michelle_obarna4468]

Optimus: hello darkness my old friend, I've come to talk to you again.

[@nickcrazedstaber2592]

Ben Dittrich ILL BE RIGHT THERE

[@DiamondBolt]

*SKY-BYTE THAT'S ME* Say hello to my newest series - BOLT BYTES - a series of quick and more comedic reviews on practically anything! I really hope you enjoy this format, and be sure to let me know what you want me to review next!

[@darkstar5081]

Diamondbolt Fort Max run by Children CHILD SLAVERY ALERT

[@darkstar5081]

Maybe you should review Beast wars; you liked that didn't you.

[@endersage3514]

Diamondbolt Transformers Armada.

[@TalkingHeadProductions]

You seem to bash the revolutionaries crossover from the comics often. Would that be better here or as a ruined forever?

[@shaden99]

Diamondbolt Mmmmmmmm. So delicious. I order more of these.

[@dinoshot4682]

How do we know Sky-Byte is the best character in this show? Because he got into the IDW comics.

[@mithmoonwalker]

he must be the reincarnation of primus

[@stephenquinn7931]

So did gigatron (rid megatron)

[@Goc4ever]

And he also appeared in Transformers Cyberverse

[@alqu6375]

Side-Brun should meet Knockout. Side-Brun: *sees Knockout in his car mode* Well hello gorgeous how are you? ;) Knockout: *transforms* oh I super thanks for ask handsome. Side-Brun: Bahhh! You're not a hot female red sports car! Knockout: well 4 out 5 ain't bad kiddo. ;)

[@HouseholdWheel]

Oh my god, I would totally ship Knockout and Sideburn, they're perfect for each other. Why did this never occur to me it's brilliant.

[@endersage3514]

al qu Knockout and Sideburn would make a great couple.

[@AlmostAnimixers]

I ship it.

[@mithmoonwalker]

if a gender bent knock out existed then they would be near the level of love of rewind and chrome dome

[@Sax_Banana]

it really is a shame that rid was the only show sky byte appeared in, because i would love to see him in more tf stuff (please let him be in cyberverse. then that show might be good)

[@bendittrich1218]

sax_banana He was in IDW's last ongoing before Revolution.

[@brobot500]

At least he “exists” in the Animated universe. tfwiki.net/wiki/Sky-Byte_(Animated)

[@master5gamingandotherstuff490]

i think he's still there

[@kira-dk2mx]

I don't think even Sky Byte could save that oncoming mess.

[@BagOfMagicFood]

Did Cyberverse turn out to be good?

[@EbullientSMP]

This was a show I watched as a kid, lots of fun childhood memories are filled for me. It's also got my favorite design of Optimus, and the transformations, while cheesy and stock, are just so fun to watch, especially with the sound effects. It's a lot of fun and even though it's not the best, I still hold it in high regard. This is neat for short little bites and reviews, but personally I'm more of a fan of Cherished/Ruined forever formats. I _love_ hearing your full thoughts on things and what you have to say about them in depth. Tai is also very cute.

[@moarkrabz5182]

Roses are red, Sky-bite is blue, Wait? Wouldn’t it be better, If this were a haiku?

[@NewGabeOrder]

Sugar is sweet And so do you I win You lose

[@legogeneralgreivous8651]

A new series? This is going to be JUICY

[@TheGenuineDWNUT]

Awesome video for a good series. Back in late September 2017, I had the opportunity to meet Skybyte's voice actor in a pub in London. He signed my Generations Skybyte figure and my Robots In Disguise DVDs for NOTHING! We chatted and drank alcohol together. Ah good times and one I will remember for eternity.

[@smugsneasel]

Ah man, that must have been amazing! Lucky you!

[@EthanBurton]

Now DiamondBolt is going to change his channel art to Sky-Byte

[@legogeneralgreivous8651]

Nah skids is still better

[@jakolay69xd32]

Who's the smartest shark around, who's the baddest shark around, it's SKY BYTE

[@nightlypiano41]

Thats *HIIIM*

[@moarkrabz5182]

A NEW SERIES??? “Hey that’s pretty cool”

[@RebelliousRobot]

That intro is gold!

[@RebelliousRobot]

Great series idea as well.

[@nightlypiano41]

Should've been longer but still actually awesome (love that *twaaaaaaaansfomaaaaaaaaasssss... ROBOTS IN DISGUISE*)

[@maddiepanaiia6614]

*slams down button* Nothing else is important. Watching this. Deal with it life. You’re amazing my dude 😂

[@aerytful]

The best thing about R.I.D. 2001 was that Galvatron toy which had ten alt modes. It was one of the first TF toys I owned as a child. then i broke it whoops

[@ziltch2150]

Transformer toys in a nutshell

[@KamisamanoOtaku]

The U.S. release of Megatron (RiD 2001) actually uses the Galvatron (or rather, Devil Gigatron) mold, which was just a slight retooling of the Gigatron mold. Guess they figured, why bother with the original? Didn't bother me, any. :)

[@tscream80]

"Guess they figured, why bother with the original?" My guess is that Takara didn't have the original Gigatron mold anymore, having modified it for Devil Gigatron, so that's what Hasbro had to use when releasing RiD into the US. Either way, RiD Megatron *can* transform into all ten of Galvatron's/Devil Gigatron's modes, they just didn't advertise it that way. This RiD is probably also responsible for the "Galvatron is Megatron recolored" habit that the Unicron trilogy fell into - although in RiD's case, giving Galvatron four more modes at least justified the recolor, unlike the UT.

[@HuMaNise34]

3:48 "One of the most boring characters ever." Koji has nothing on Kicker, the god of being a nuisance. Why kicker happens to be my childhood why?!

[@ryanspees2857]

*ULTRA MAGNUS I''M IN TROUBLE!* *I'LL BE RIGHT THERE!*

[@sivamylvaganam4644]

Diamond Bolt: Ultra Magnus! Me (screams): I'LL BE RIGHT THERE!!!

[@ColtenCindy]

You should rename your Ruined forever from Transformers: Energon to Abortions in Disguise.

[@_kishken_1595]

*when you're trying to study for finals but DB posted a new vid* .... "Nah, my failing grades can wait"

[@marc-ericleblanc-seguin4514]

We need Sky-Byte as a guest character in your videos !

[@quirkyeggmuffin]

During my late junior/early senior years of highschool I remember watching an episode of Car Robots before school started and feeling like I was super cool over it. Just like when I’d read the IDW comics during free time in class

[@EddieDuan]

I'm digging this new format! Keep it up! Side Burn..what a guy

[@kingpablothe1stoverlordoft871]

Just from what you've shown of skybyte, im convinced to find the series and watch it. And to look for the generations deluxe toy they put out a few years back.

[@Dr.Indominus]

HHHHHHAAAAAAA BEAM!!!!!!!!!!!

[@inc6873]

"Hm that's pretty cool."

[@28stabwounds91]

ULTRA MAGNUS, I’M IN TROUBLE! I’LL BE RIGHT THERE!

[@blazngheart3496]

Hey, nice first episode of Bolt Bytes. I know I’ll love this.

[@malikreeves6011]

0 out of 10 no Starscream...

[@christopherbravo1813]

well there's DARKscream....

[@generaljimmies3429]

Skybyte basically fills in the role for Starscream. Minus the backstabbing, but I attribute that more to the writing than anything else.

[@malikreeves6011]

Christopher Bravo That sounds like an Asylum movie knock off character.

[@autobotstarscream765]

Isn't the "Ultra Magnus" of RiD 2000 basically an Autobot Starscream that tries to overthrow Optimus instead of Megatron?

[@chrishill9197]

Malik Reeves I like this show but I doubt that Dank Starscream likes it, then.

[@MutantsInDisguise]

I just recently wanted to watch RiD again. It's good, not as great as Beast Wars, but it's good. One of my favourite things from this show was Scourge, who in my opinion, has been the only time a black clone of Optimus Prime worked perfectly.

[@TFA1024]

This is pretty entertaining. i always liked this show and Sky-Byte is the best predacon. love him. look forward to see more and for a suggestion, would love to hear your thoughts on Armada. looking forward to more Bolt Bytes. keep up the awesome work man.

[@zaragozrex]

Sky Byte is our Lord and Saviour.

[@Ahmadu100]

4:25-"Especially Megatron who has to find a use for all 6 of his useless alt modes".You are totally unforgiving,that's Megatron for crying out loud!!!

[@Abbie-Apel]

4:48 Ultra magnus:ultra JET Optimus prime: blaze blaster Megatron: DRAGON MODE

[@ironhide615]

YES THE NEW BOLT BYTES CEREAL IS OUT!

[@MasterJunior93]

Sky-Byte for the win!

[@someguyinachair4187]

All praise our lord sky byte!!

[@davidelistonii5225]

1:42 He sounds better than the voice for Optimus in that Netflix series I hate watching.

[@N-GinAndTonicTM]

"My dad's in danger! Someone's gotta help him!" "And somebody will!" *wait wHAT-*

[@lukeskywalkerthe2nd773]

Brilliant first episode of this new series DB!!!! :)

[@vjestiprime2005]

AHHHHHHHHHHHH BEAM

[@allanlan9515]

Transformers:anime in disguise

[@austinroundsgallery83]

The Autobots fighting the Predacons is such an interesting concept for me. The best Transformers show to me! Right next to Animated

[@PepsiDeadpool]

*WHERE IS MAH POKEMON VIDEO?* EDIT: 1:09 oh so thats how your pokemon video is going

[@aitoranimations3612]

*Noticed notification* this come out of the sky, could you say it was an *SKYBYTE*

[@emeraldluigi4520]

Did someone say... *Sky-Byte?* Also, this seems like an interesting idea, can't wait to see where you go with this.

[@Yipper64]

2:36 not *a* child, not *a few* children *a whole freaken city* of children all controlling a giant robot cooperatively. *very likely i see no problems with this*

[@captainmichaelj.caboose1777]

3:55 IKR How convenient

[@sideways992]

Fun Fact: This is Steve Blum first Transformers role as Dark Scream. and Neil Kaplan who voiced Optimus is this also voices Zorkon in Voltron Legendary Defender.

[@TheRealDustinNunn]

I grew up on R.I.D. 2001 and it wasn't a bad anime. I always enjoyed the multiple transformations of Megatron/Galvatron and I also enjoyed watching Omega Prime, Rail Racer, Landfill, Fortress Maximus and the rest of the cast. If I remember correctly, there was an animation error where Wedge, the leader of the Build Team, is mistakenly called Landfill.

[@Dreamer-lz7ft]

Diamond bolt! A solo film with prime soundwave that was not directed by Michael bay and the writers were not on crack was released Diamond bolt: Hmm that's pretty cool

[@typicallyadingus]

4:20 my gosh energon Ironhide would die in the most satisfing way

[@stanletters]

Thank you for explaining this show.

[@alng3326]

Sweet vid!! This new bolt bites series is going to be awesome👍🏻

[@alng3326]

P

[@dnprime1737]

rid 2001 is fun, honestly. and scourge started the evil optimus/nemesis prime cashgrab storm that followed rid 2001. so now you know who to blame for the black optimus repaint money vacuum.

[@v0lant_bl0ck88]

DNPrime 17

[@Alex876]

motormaster was my nemesis prime

[@dnprime1737]

Kersten Furlong what?

[@Funnybones30]

Ultra Magnus: no prime I won't work for you because I deserved to get the matrix, not you! 2 SECONDS LATER We must work together and combine!

[@Funnybones30]

Yay senpai is noticing me

[@Mushroom_Man]

You can bite my bolts any day~

[@rumblino4947]

Dicky McDickface omg senpai

[@bluescreen828]

Dicky McDickface it’s you again

[@nightlypiano41]

*no*

[@lastgamer64]

Cyclons: Lord Galvatron I need take you some where! Galvatron: Um... okay... Cyclons: Were here Lord Galvatron for your mind to get fixed! Galvatron: NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO IM NOT CRAZY!! Cyclons: Bye Lord Galvatron!!!

[@MelnStarscream]

I always love your Transformers videos!! I live these videos! I'm in love with them! Please always makes more!!

[@zachamusprime6140]

Love this! Good new bit, do armada next

[@kkvidstash3407]

This was the first Transformers show I watched and got me hooked into the series, feels good to look back at this great show

[@nogame.metakethrone.3007]

And yet this voice for Optimus is still better then the literal netfilx adaption.

[@ryanmatthews3609]

4:42 you have no idea how true that is.

[@tannerprice2018]

TF RID 2001 and Sonic Boom Crossover....MAKE IT HAPPEN!

[@endersage3514]

It always feels good to watch DiamondBolt after school.

[@xaghi9832]

Hm... Life... New video... Why am I thinking about this?! *Starts video*

[@BH-98]

2:06 haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa BEAM!

[@jz2327]

good video Diamondbolt and keep up the good work :D

[@thehjt7071]

Transformers: Weeaboos in disguise

[@dominatorprime4705]

Diamond Bolt vs ultra magnus rid 2001

[@bradstar9023]

I personally think the decpecticons were the only good characters in this show. great review

[@optimoosejones9493]

*HAAAAAAAA BEAM!*

[@dragonstormx]

RiD's toyline was mostly a placeholder before the Unicron trilogy came out, mostly of a lot repaints from other toy lines. Scourge for example is a black repaint of an older Optimus Prime toy, which I admit is pretty clever. In fact the only villain who isn't a repaint is Megatron. The show feels mostly the same as the toyline, a placeholder that is alright but nothing that stands out much aside from Skybyte.

[@ultramovzardproductions1940]

Ooh nice a new series with a nice system as well! SKY BYTE

[@Saibot_the_Noob]

I still remember Sky-Byte discovering Shakespeare for the first time -"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times? That doesn't make any sense make up your mind!"

[@acero3652]

Yeee! More Bolt

[@Seawing99]

Whoa, a new series and the first episode has Sky-Byte in it, best birthday present ever!

[@DiamondBolt]

Happy birthday!

[@Seawing99]

Diamondbolt Thank you! Love what you do, keep it up! :)

[@thehatohyeahyeah5141]

Fortress Maximum: THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!!!!!

[@criedwolf9554]

AAAAAAAAAH BEAM!! P.S. SkyByte is best character. Good shark, best shark.

[@SuperGodzilla2]

i think i might give this a shot, doesnt look too bad, plus Sky Bite!!!!!!

[@tanitluminake]

0:22 Oh no! You've found my ipad background! I did grow up watching the show since they aired it on foxkidz when I was younger along with G1. And RID was the second transformers series I ever watched, even younger me thought Koji was whining to much but I still keep my love of Skybyte. I would recommend watching the Abridged series of RID it has mature humour and it grows on you very fast.

[@markey412]

you know when I think about it, Sky-Byte is the only transformer I remember about this show. other than the obvious canon characters

[@Cayden_Thompson]

Sideburn’s obsessed with red sports cars, as I am obsessed with Bolts awesome videos. 😃

[@nadillasakinah950]

This looks so much different yet better than 2015 RID. Great job, Diamond Bolt! And on my birthday too! :D

[@DiamondBolt]

Happy birthday!

[@nadillasakinah950]

Diamondbolt Aww, thanks DB!

[@jakevernon1073]

This is one of the transformers shows I grew up watching as a kid and still love it

[@yikes9473]

This series was, and still is, one of my favourite series out of them all! Thanks for having a look at it and giving it a good analysis also! Keep up the good work man!

[@smugsneasel]

00:25 "That's up the real hero of the story: Sky-Byte." After watching a few things beforehand, just like that, you have a new subscriber.

[@Eye_Que1725]

Bring back Bolt Bytes. Love em

[@nova6670]

im early enough to say this is EPIC

[@bifocalprime]

Aaaaaah beam! Skybyte is here, and now he's gonna look at you and make you grin! PD: Skybyte wants a heart.

[@unrealkaine]

Skybite is literally the saving grace of rid. He's like the best character ever lol

[@sergeanttrooper6953]

Oh man, this show was my childhood, enjoyed watching it whenever it came on, despite how corny it is looking back at it. Great short and sweet vid. Sky-yte was amazing. XD although I was a fan of Scourge :D

[@theelderscout0314]

Skybyte's a shark, so he's automatically my favorite transformer of all time.

[@maraj1014]

New series for db hopefully the internet stays alive from tommorow

[@henmar354]

I loved the voices of Megatron and Optimus and loved that they remained the voices for 4 series.

[@swordkingx4874]

Robots in Disguise was my first ever Transformers series.

[@FumusPrime]

Yesssssssssssssssssssss, I have been waiting desperately for this. And you are right about Sky-Byte, when he first appeared in IDW, I was so excited but his character was not the same :( Hey, maybe Sky-Byte can be Bolt Bytes' mascot :)

[@calamitousenigma9052]

ULTRA MAGNUS! I'M IN TROUBLE!

[@endersage3514]

Shadow Enigma I'LL BE RIGHT THERE!

[@Hewylewis]

You should watched the Abridged version on youtube. Friggin' hilarious.

[@notsoalex]

Good review! I'm am a fan of this idea. You could review things that don't fall to either CF or RF here.
