Insane Transformer News! When Transformers don't Transform?

[@polarisrustinpeace1797]

I'm glad you get it. Transformers is a noun, not a verb. Some of my favorite pieces don't transform. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours, Big D!

I don't have anything against Non-transforming Transformers. The Yolopark AMK series look amazing, and I almost bought them but that would be another rabbit hole I don't need to fall down. That being said all the transformers in my collection transform. I think it's mostly due to budget and space. It makes me more selective on what I purchase, plus it's nice to be able to take them off the shelf and transform them if it want to. But, if you want Transformers Action figures and have the mean and space for them I say go for it. The more Transformers stuff out there the better. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family! Great video as usual.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours, man! Personally I'm in the camp that doesn't care for non transforming Transformers. They look AMAZING, but as someone who loves to handle his toys daily, removing the one thing that drew me to Transformers from the offset seems like a waste to me. I don't hate them, but they don't have a place on my shelves.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. I love non transforming figures im a Threezero guy and Yolopark is a very close second but with their lastest figures and price may overtake threezero, sorry got side tracked. But how many figures do we display in vehicle form, aside from something like the dinobots not very many its all in robot form. And the detail is always just mind blowing. I have bought more non transforming over transforming figures in the last few years. BTW love the shirt

Happy Thanksgiving! When it comes to Transformers for me the transformation is as important as the character to me so I don't really buy non-transforming Transformers figures, but I'm glad they have all these great new non-transforming figures that look amazing for the fans who want them. Some of the modern ones look phenomenal. One thing though: the figures standing on my shelf doing nothing are IN-action masters, thank you very much!

[@stevest.hilaire2015]

Yolopark is a MUST, we display our figures in bot mode anyway. Besides they look awesome 👍👍. Happy thanksgiving

I don't have any rules about my collection-- I just buy what I like and I'm not looking to complete any sets. Sometimes the non-transforming figures really nail the aesthetics. I have a bunch in my collection. I'm glad to see Blokees getting so much love because they're bringing non-transforming to the forefront, which is good for the hobby. In some communities people are pretty against non-transforming figures, but I don't understand why. No one is forcing me what to buy, and whatever makes people happy is great. Lately I've done some soul searching and decided I'm only going to buy figures that really excite me. I'm going through my collection to figure out what I'll sell and any figure that I don't immediately have a negative reaction to selling, I'm selling. Otherwise I just keep buying stuff and it piles up!!! I think your idea about how most people's collections are actionmasters anyways is on point-- sometimes I feel like people add all these rules to what they can buy-- I've legit met people who will only buy transforming figures, but they don't transform theirs... so what they just want the toy to have the capability to transform? That's fine, but no need for the hate either way. Everyone can buy what they like. We need to be a pluralistic community... gatekeeping is bad for all of us.

I have sold off most of my toy collection as I’m getting older. But I still collect 3zero MDLX figures. I’m hoping they release the first wave of G1, and that’s all I buy. For me, these figures are the best example of the robot version we’re ever going to get. Watching reviews of transforming toys, you hear about “backpacks” and other ways to hide parts for the best front view. With MDLX, every view is perfect. No extra parts hanging out. They’re great for action figure photography. But they are not for everyone, and that’s fine. I like having options. But really, have you ever seen a constructicon collection displayed as vehicles?

[@peace4myheart]

While I don't hate non-transformable TF, I don't think it's for me. For me, if "Transform" IS in the name, then it has to transform, that is their gimmick. If you take that away, then what do you have left to distinguish them from another statue or action figure of a franchise? But if it makes someone happy, then more power to them. That doesn't mean that I want companies that make them to stop. There's a lot to go around for everyone and it seems like the fan have spoken bc their is definitely a market there. Anyway, Happy Thanksgiving my good man.

[@chuckskillz5184]

I don't mind them as long as they pose really well. I just want a lot a playability out of my TFs whether they transform or not

[@RazyelKayneReviews]

I think I'd probably do Legends, Threezero and Yolopark if I had to redo the collection. It`s pretty fantastic when you can pose your figures, and Threezero is great for that. Yolopark a little less, not gonna lie the nemesis prime feet could have use a tweek. Great topic, I don`t mind a non-transforming transformers at all.

when i was getting out of Transformers as a kid, the Action Masters came out and i was so excited and got them all. but now in adult collecting, i rather have a transformable Transformer just for the fun factor. flipping back and forth keeps it more fun and interesting for me. i collect alot of non-Transformer figures but i put them in a pose then they go on the shelf and look great. but Transformers are special for me because you can "play" with them in transforming them back and forth. i have a couple of non-transforming transformers and they look awsome, but i just prefer transforming ones to mess around with. sorry you might have to suffer this Thanksgiving from having the Giants play today. lol. they are terrible. lol

[@KOCustom4488]

Hello I mainly collect figures from magic square and new age. Sometimes Mechanic studio But sometimes I buy figures from other scales. One of the companies is Yolopark. I am guided by the appearance of a specific character and yolopark is currently the most balanced price to quality option among non-transforming transformers in my opinion. Regards and Happy Thanksgiving! 😀

[@thetitan914]

For me there's no hate on non-transforming transformers, it's just a preference. I like the puzzle aspect and the display options of being able to transform a figure especially at the price. I was really excited for Unix Square because you can "configure" them back and forth but the first one is a bit pricey, so not sure at this point.

[@NinjabillReviews]

For my part, there is no problem. I started my collecting life with transformers, however, it was Gundam which has always been my first mecha love. Yes, there are Mobile Suits that transform, that said, most of those are not great-looking alt modes in any real substance. I think Gumdam ZZ was one of the best so far and that is debatable. So I grew up in the 70's, there were not many transforming toys in that period, lots of giant city-smashing robot joy, Like the shogun warrior toys, which did not transform really.

[@dziadeck47]

I wonder if the Three zero would start doing the 'combiners'. I get the feeling 90% of collectors once they combine the individual bots they stay that way, so the fact they transform and all the engineering that goes in it is for little use. It becomes a non-transforming transformer. And wouldn't huge Three zero Superion be awesome? And surely cheaper than FansToys 😅

[@jamievaughn1485]

I collect the robot not the thing it transforms into. I’ll always appreciate both styles.

[@primalconvoy]

If they have a great play pattern, are if non-transforming characters, are really poseable, are cheap and/or have loads of great paint, then I'm up for TF action figures. If they're not, line 3Zero (which are overpriced), then NOPE.

[@niktes3337]

To me, a Transformer is not a Transformer unless it Transforms. Nontransforming Action Figures or Statues/Staction Figures are just representations of Transformers. I want my Transformers to Transform because that is what makes them Transformers, that is the interaction. I have some Staction Nontransformers that are just Chibi Figures.

[@jarettramagos8399]

I love the three zero figures that I have, I bought a few of the RED series because I really like the bot mode of that specific character. It really doesn't matter to me if it transforms or not if I like it I'm getting it. 😁
