Patriot Prime Reviews 1988 G1 Pretender Landmine

[@BertTheStormtrooper]

LOVE the 'going to work on the state highway' part LOL! Awesome review as always!

[@chrisvellner3922]

I thought he was going to say He holds the gun side-ways "Gangsta' style"

[@chrisvellner3922]

I was in Basic Training when this figure was first released. I'm glad I already had a subscription to the Marvel Comics. So I had a few issues waiting for me when I came home on leave. I still have those comics today and they are in great shape! These Pretender Reviews sure bring back memories! Thanks for the jog.

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

Any time Chris. I enjoy pulling out these figures to review, many I have't touched in years.

Great pretender episode can episode on the diakron robot combiner

[@OverlordOfTheRubberDuckies]

Autobots raise their battle to destroy the evil forces of the Decepticons

[@paulsnickles2420]

hello Patriot Prime I'm enjoying your transformers pretenders toy reviews keep up the good work

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

Hooah!!! Thanks Paul.

[@CannonFodder93]

I think this might be my favorite of the Autobot Pretender. I actually kinda dig his design, the colors just pop in a very striking manner (and the Toyhax labels really add even more to that) and his robot form looks pretty cool. The Mechannibals and the people or Femax were a good idea, but the problem is that you can tell that Budiansky was really stressed about having to deal with all the characters, so I guess the story felt a bit tired. But still, the overall goofiness of it just adds quite a bit of appeal.

[@cybertronconvoy]

I like his vehicle mode it reminds me of Optimus Prime vehicle mode from Transformers War Within. The Toyhax stickers help make his robot mode look really great. Great review.

[@Tattimusprime]

The background on this guy is the best thing about him lol I have to read those comics now lol great review brother! \m/

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

Definitely a weird story, Cloudburst's side of the story is even wierder.

[@wonderwaffle93]

I’ve recently discovered your channel, you pretty much made me buy me Powermaster Prime with Apex armor(MIB too!) really love how informative and honest you are, especially when it comes to reviewing obscure TF characters like these. I agree though, I love Pretenders, but the Decepticons are just more appealing with the monster look, it’s like a mix of He-Man with how monstrous and mutated they look. I got Bomburst, Skullgrin and Submarauder(all in great condition too) The good news though is that the Autobot Pretenders usually seem to be cheaper to buy, definitely seeing myself only getting Cloudburst and Landmine!

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

The original 3 are fairly cheap...but every other Autobot Pretender is $$$$$. Thanks for watching, I hope you enjoy what I have to offer.

[@KingofPotatoPeople]

4:53 judging by Landmine’s pose he really needs a bathroom visit

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

There's no zipper in that shell. 🤣

[@WolfKang1]

"It's the 80's..." It is funny how much we either explain away or justify by saying those three little words.With regards to Landmine himself, I always found him to be one of the most lacking in terms of design in both pretender shell and inner robot. No matter how far their shitiness extends, I still love these things. With the exception of perhaps the PotP versions that came out last year. Those things are just inexcusable.

[@gw9241]

Thanks for another great pretender review. At least they painted the eyes in for this guys pretender shell, when compared to Waverider. Funny how they added this detail for this guy. Again another good looking robot mode. And "get this guy a cheeseburger" 😂

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

A double cheeseburger. 🍔

[@gw9241]

@@PatriotPrimeReviews lol, yeah this guy to do with a good Five Guys burger or two 😆

[@hgc7000]

"they looked like Giant red Pac-Mans... Its the 80s." Agreed. Also, Cocaine was a helluva drug!

[@soundvoxslegotransformers9633]

I got this guy at a garage sale love it. I was never a fan of pretender shells but I use the bot as a cybertronian mode. I like to think of these human shells as giant aliens that look human.

[@jboy667]

in masterforce he was known as lander and he was a lady's man who loved the ladies

[@TFfangeek]

EXCELLENT REVIEW PATRIOT PRIME!!!!!!!!!!! I see Landmine's alt mode as a tiny yellow version of Dark of the Moon Shockwave. :D I honestly think the Power of the Primes version of Landmine is better then the G1, despite being three times smaller. :P Thank you for this amazing review, you are beyond incredible, Double Thumb's Up. ;D

[@rosaoyola8074]

I agree I had land mine when I was younger he was one of the weakest figures keep up the great work on the episodes of The Pretenders

[@alekskot9240]

even its a boring figure, i cant hate any g1 toy. I only have 2 pretenders in my very small collection, but man, g1 toys are so nostalgic

[@bumblebreeze9456]

The arms in the back of alt mode must add at least 200 horsepower. Lol But I guess they had their purpose.

[@J_Lee712]

Great review. Always have wondered if the Autobot pretenders were recruits from G.I.Joe. that signed up to help the boys. Have to check yojoe.com but think there was. Joe named landmine at one time.

[@soundvoxslegotransformers9633]

Btw I like to use his sword with my Optimus Primes Earthrise and Rid 2005.

[@gijose83]

the japanese cartoon was animated a little too well

[@NathanSimmonsSworn]

Great review my man! A definite pass for me, thanks for sharing!

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

Any time, hoping to wrap up the rest of my Pretenders this month.

[@jason77584]

You need to watch transformers master force cartoon to understand why they chose human forms your missing out was great story and series the us comic Don’t do the toys justice

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

I know, I need to break down and order the Japanese collection.

[@eventprogenitor1873]

Sorry but it does sound like collars over colors, likely your accent carrying over but it does sound that way. Noticed in a few videos lately it's not meant to sound mean or anything just a wait huh did he just say.... As for car mode when younger i did "he was Hardhead's younger brother with mobile artillery" kinda thought it was the 80's we thought odd things, so now you got some dirt on me lol.

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

What accent? 😉
