I now see they were a straight up repaint and rename of of the g1 combaticons. 2001 Transformers rid was the first transformers i remember watching as a kid (5 at the time). My first transformer i got as a kid was x-brawn. Used to have optimus, combaticons and scourge. Still have the autobot brothers, build team, ultra magnus and brawl in various states of missing/broken/yellowing pieces. Ah the nostalgia, thank you for a video reminding me of a well enjoyed childhood, i salute you sir o7.

We had a blast transforming him, unfortunatelly didn't live long because we had a knack for breaking stuff haha, had many cheap KO Transformers as a kid I broke, we couldn't afford the original stuff, which is probably a good thing, because now as an adult with a job and my own monthly earning, I get to enjoy the figures properly without breaking them, and I get to enjoy the figures I wasn't able to as a kid. This brings back a lot of memories though.

Got the RID version of this, and my "Vortex" is different when it comes to his legs - not loose, but tight. Using him as a leg bot is best avoided, because once the feet have been slid up, they lock tight, and I fear breaking him when trying to return him to robot mode.
