Star Wars Transformers DARTH VADER / DEATH STAR Video Review
#TRANSFORMERS #StarWars #DarthVader

[@grimlock116]

The death star vs Unicron would be interesting, if you asked me

[@protogensvisiontimelost254]

Pretty sure Unicron would actually become Perma dead

[@TheEldestSoulDrinker]

I think unicron would win

[@uncle5486]

I think if the Death Star got a hit on unicron with the superlaser it would definitely beat him, but if they missed or it was still charging up, unicron would kick the death star’s ass.

[@Athabasca447]

Are you bozo?

[@larniieplayz6285]

One hit is enough to kill unicron

[@dinoshot4682]

"Once it was finally finished, the Death Star was the Emperor's favorite toy. It was also the most boring assignment in the galaxy for a Stormtrooper. Tedious inspection drills, endless hours of guarding impregnable force-field generators. Things got so bad that when a prison break erupted in the cell block, we were almost happy to have someone shooting at as again. If only we'd known what an embarrassing snipe storm we were about to wade into. We probably would have jettisoned the whole detention block into space." "After the embarrassment of the prison break, Lord Vader removed us from are comfortable belay and began dragging the 501st across the galaxy in a dangerous hunt for the now missing Death Star plans. Ironically our punishment eventually proved to be our salvation. The poor souls who took are place in the detention area were completely wiped out when the Death Star was destroyed."

[@rayquazaemerald10260]

When I was younger I thought this was Primus so went around saying Autobot Planet Vader 😂😂😂

[@autobotsNdecepticons]

This was best of the star wars crossovers. Goes well with Primus and Unicron.

[@DrVRhodes7541]

*that moment when you realize you have all three, but aren't displaying them side by side by side.*

[@heirofthedog1]

So if “The circle is now complete” should be for when you transform back into Death Star mode. I guess “I find you lack of faith disturbing” should be for when you give up trying to transform him! 😉

[@franciscop1192]

Haha! I got those references!! (My Dummy comment)

[@zacharyjochumsen9677]

@@franciscop1192 do you have this thing

[@OoFeRiNoo]

Now we need a Sheev Palpatine that transforms into the SENATE

[@MarkLoganFIB]

I really like the kibble on this. Makes Darth Vader actually seem like a cybertronian creation and gives an armored looks.

[@shauyaun4285]

“Now that we’re adults”...*giggles like a kid on Christmas* 25:10

[@davidpulipati2865]

I didn’t have any Star Wars ones, but I did have a few Marvel crossover figures.

[@Archive_7802]

Remember the Spider-Man ones?

[@Darkbotsz5]

Transformers and marvel and star wars yeah crossover principal.

[@VadraDamask]

I had this on my backboard shelf for over 10+ years in Death Star mode lmao

[@jediprime9498]

That was a childhood toy for mr and brother, I was my brother before he handed to me, I remember seeing the commercial for this figure and I was cool and it brought me so nastalgic. Thank you so much for uploading for this optibotimus til all are one and may the force be with you

[@marcussmith9807]

I had this as a kid, can’t remember if I was able to transform it or not😂😂

[@neobushidaro]

The panels on this thing are a very special flavor of hell

[@TheM0n0lith]

I would definitely like to see you review some older figures

[@ultrabrian8151]

I used to pretend that this death star toy was a core ship while rein-acting the Core-ship attack with my toys.

[@jacobcohen1801]

Gosh, that beeping and firing sound is just so nostalgic for me! I remember having this guy when I was younger and it's honestly just not a great figure. Total shellformer with kibble everywhere. Parts would break off, it was always hard to keep track of the little characters and the whole thing was just so unwieldy! I absolutely adored it anyways!

[@OVK-Productions]

I’ve always wanted this, but now that i see it, i don’t really want it anymore😂 it looks cool, but i wouldn’t want this in any of the movies

[@adhambarbour]

Man what a blast from the past, I remember when my friend got that on his birthday. Speaking of cross-over transformers, I found my old Spiderman and Ironman transformer. Oh the nostalgia.😄

[@UpontheGreyWind]

Never had, always wanted, legit saw him as Unicron crossed over into the starwars universe

[@jamesanderson9378]

If you hold the small button on the back for a few seconds, he says a few more phrases. Found that out when I got him.

[@darkkomet1653]

The Legs made the Death Star look like one of the Separatist Core ships (Even when the Death Star is a Separatist Design)

[@jelgerbudding8140]

I actually got this one of Ebay for about $20 including shipping a few months ago. Was really high on my wishlist. Misses his gun and rocket and the tie fighters and vader and Troopers but he has all his panels. Still a bit of a miracle he arrived undamaged seeing the seller sent it wrapped in half a bubble envelop and just put it in one of those bag envelopes 😮

[@c0r3theta]

Okay I'VE GOT THIS ONE!!!!! I have find him nearly 10 years ago at a friend house. He was siting in a corner of my friend's bedroom completely wreck, the pieces were fine, it just wasn't transformed properly. When he and his friend of him were playing on the computer, I take it into my hand and ask my friend if I could transform it. He respond "yeah, if you want, I don't know how it transformed anyway." It took me some time but I manage to transform the death star back into its form and then change it into Darth Vador *WITHOUT ANY SOME SORT OF BLUEPRINT* since then, it's in my house now. I didn't know it was this old

[@Chef326]

THE OLD INTRO MUSIC

[@lincolnmiller4757]

I wanted this figure more than any other toy when I saw it as a kid.

[@justinprime5205]

If Star Wars had a Unicron, this would be it.

[@rabet6334]

Man you're video quality is so good now with that new PC you got. Also I dig this Vader

[@keanueraine]

Thanks Op for reviewing this. This was a fun one. I think you described this one perfectly. I never opened my Han and Chewie Millenium Falcon or Obi-Wan and Anakin Jedi Starfighters. I still have them on my wall as sealed display pieces. I love the crossovers and am looking forward to the Maverick Top Gun crossover coming up soon. Again Thank you.

[@defenderprime8046]

Interesting crossover Transformer, I used to have the other Darth Vader that transformed into the Super Star Destroyer, but he was a lot like a parts-former if memory serves right, but I was more interested in traditional Transformers. If you got more of these gems in your storage bins and want to review the ones you haven't already, be my guest! Cool retro review, Paul!

[@keanueraine]

I had the box to Vaders Star Destroyer in my hand, put it back on the shelf to think about it as I walked around Walmart and decided to pull the trigger on it. When I went back for it, it was gone. Never saw it on the shelf again in my town. Even as a parts former it must have been somewhat fun to play with. :)

[@deanprowell7947]

It was a regular Star Destroyer, and it also turned into Anakin who turned into a Venator It wasn't a good figure.

[@syedhariz6963]

Miss the old theme/opening . Keep up the good work 👍

[@seifixnetwork4663]

Best cross over ever Whomever made this i give him big respect to engineer this

[@KossolaxtheForesworn]

I remember I wanted this for christmas as a child. how ever since my parents didnt find it, I got the second best option. the millennium falcon which is both han and chewie. sadly some stuff has gone missing through the years. I dont think I have neither han nor chewie mini figures anymore.

[@advaitlotlikar6940]

Classic review dude You always rock my man!

[@optibotimus]

I appreciate that!

[@Remember_Bubblebutt]

Yeah I really like the retro reviews and look backs. You should do em like every weekend or something.

[@harrisonblock]

You can also hold the button in the back for even more sounds

[@alexsgamingshow2474]

Megatron and Darth Vader would be great friends! 😂👍.

[@harrisonblock]

He rolls, as rolling things should. Hooray for rolling.

[@2040teejay]

In planet mode, if you had the gun and middle, tilting his head forward makes that little gray piece on his chest pop out and that actually shoots the gun from planet mode. There's also a light inside his left hand that makes all of the lightsaber noises when you put it in his hand! You're missing out my man!

[@brandonweaver2854]

May be a panel former but at least its still a decent look for vader

[@Soltic2]

I have it too. I love it in Death Star look. But can’t wait to see him next to Unicron.

[@Audioblare_official]

The spring in the head was probably a feature in the original idea for the figure that probably never made it in

[@YoshikiByankotsu]

I always found extremely funny how this was one of the best toy versions of the Death Star.

[@jasonregimbal-kung6154]

My Vader still has nice, stiff joints. Once the new crossover series started I took mine out of storage for my display. I still like him a lot. Yeah, he's panel-y, but I think that's unavoidable. And the Death Star is panel-y in planet mode anyway; it works for me.

[@attill2508]

"...and I'm also a fucking scorpion." And I'm also the deathstar.

[@bradmullaerialphotography]

I loved these cross overs more for the alt modes. Apart from some panel lines these are great ships which we didn’t get in the hasbro line

[@fastboy5557]

Yoooo, I had this as a kid! I only have a single storm trooper as a figure, I lost the others lol

[@havok404yt3]

This figure has 4 more voice clips in its death star mode, just hold down the button on the back

[@princeaphan8274]

Transformer Crossovers are so cool. I got the Captain Rex/AT-TE and Spider-Man/motorcycle.

[@aussieguy6908]

Push head in Death Star mode to launch missile. Gun fits in the grooves on the legs. I have the complete figure. When you place the lightsaber in hand, it has light saber sounds.

[@harrisonblock]

I have him, all busted up. A real pain in the ass that I could never get everything to tab in. But I still like it. Nostalgia wins.

[@sindhumathews6555]

If Vader is the death star,who is Luke? Answer:Optimus Skywalker

[@andreipoplauschi180]

"One shall stand,one shall fall,father" -Optimus Skywalker(maybe)

[@kre8or465]

I got this guy at a tag sale, I was not aware he was supposed to come with a cape.... or the storm troopers... I always wondered what those compartments were for.

[@redsabr]

I have that figure. I got him because Transformers and Vader. I’ve had him displayed in Vader mode for so long, I didn’t remember how to transform him!! 😊

[@malykothedragon]

Hey, it's a toy I had found at a goodwill a while back!

[@Jimnuts]

A friend gave me this when he moved. I honestly have never tried to transform him, lol

[@slapain547]

Man love my Death-Vader. Still have all the accessories and love this figure. Kinda sad the three ties wear around the foils.

[@godira8180]

can you imagine being in space in a spaceship o your own and the all of a sudden you hear breathing

[@Orthocryptopox96]

I used to have that and I could transform it like its nothing and I plan on getting this toy again

[@theguardianunboxing6720]

Super cool!!

[@kylec59]

i still have mine with some missing parts and i loved the series shame they didn't make them still i would have bought some such a wonderful series

[@aussieguy6908]

Sadly, my figure has lost the sound gimmick. But it still lights up.

[@CakesByChoppA]

I have mine still In the box. Never opened it.

[@wienersRus2023]

Same here

[@krizilid]

Every now and then I change modes on him and yeah it's a pain to get right but not so bad I'm scared to transform him. Lightsaber lights up in his right hand which is cool.

[@c4tb0mb]

Transforming this guy is HELL.

[@HeavyTanker-vx4oq]

This is the only transformer I have legit almost threw and tried to break during its transformation.

[@CodeXCDM]

That was MP Rodiumus for me.

[@acoote1701]

MPM-04 almost had me throw it on more than one occasion while transforming it.. TF Dream Factory's GOD-11 ROTF Megatron is a pain also, but that's only because of the multiple cuts on your knuckles after transforming it from the razor sharp tines and spikes all over the figure

[@AndreaHernandez-gy5ej]

I used to have one but I lost it and I move into a new house

[@winky1751]

Took me an hour to bring back in sphere, the real tricky part 😂

[@charlesjorden7499]

I have Unicron and Primus, need this feller

[@kingtanaka]

My brother had this when we were younger

[@shadowsnake5133]

I actually have the obiwan one... I keep forgetting the ship name, but all I'm missing is the missile and lightsaber (to my knowledge).

[@harrisonblock]

He does indeed look pretty damn cool

[@evanmoyer1562]

I had that Darth Vader since I was a kid

[@Zacblu10]

I loved this toy in robot mode, but I could never get him into the Death Star mode effectively as a child.

[@umbrellacorps684]

The Epic crossover is here

[@reddsosa4774]

I swear every kid I was friends with had one of these things

[@terryredding2042]

Yes I have it and I like it for the most part

[@kaijukingofthemonsters1075]

I remember having a general grevious Transformer

[@acoote1701]

Don't worry about "borrowing" Emgo's "Squozen" line.. his phrases and words have a habit of growing on you..

[@ragemalachi]

I've always wanted this guy but never was able

[@marcinmcula99]

One little nitpicky thing: it's not a gun, it's a blaster just like droids instead of robots

[@pawarl.o.s.881]

I own this, it's been in death star mode for years, I haven't turned it back because it's a pain to transform.

[@Antoniomoreno-ze4wy]

I just go ones of these in way better condition and more complete for $3 at a garage sale did not know he was so cool
