Patriot Prime Reviews 1988 G1 Pretender Cloudburst

[@KatosKollection]

I'm really enjoying these Pretenders reviews. I missed out on them as a kid so it's really nice to see what I've missed.

[@CannonFodder93]

LOL, that weird story must be Cloudburst's most well known moment. If he hadn't said that he was a robot, I bet he could have scored big time with the First One of Femax. XD

[@chapeljohn9462]

Cloudburst's rather different in that his alt mode is ACTUALLY good and not something that you've got to squint your eyes to see a vehicle out of!! Unfortunately I haven't got a pretender in my collection, but I've got Walmart reissues of Devastator, Optimus Prime, Hot Rod and Starscream and they're all great!! Still, nice review!!

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

Thanks John, I fell in love with these guys about 6 years ago when I got back in to G1.

[@chapeljohn9462]

Patriot Prime, G1 may not have a lot of articulation, but they've got some charm to them!! I like the Siege line as well, because it's like masterpiece figures, but affordable. Still, G1 is a MUST for transformers fans!! If not, then the Siege or masterpiece figures will do!!

[@MDestron2282]

I remember the day my mom got me Cloudburst. I only have pieces of him these days but I think he's the Transformer I had the longest. I really love the figure.

[@TFfangeek]

GREAT REVIEW PATRIOT PRIME!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can see how you got Cloudburst confused with Cloudraker, they have similar vehicle modes as well as similar paint jobs and sizes. :) Keep up the outstanding work you do, Double Thumb's Up. ;D

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

Very similar, I didn't notice until I put the box up this morning. Then had to re-edit my video to highlight the mistake.

[@ivinbarajas]

Every time I see one of your pretender figure reviews I notice how much nicer the backpacks would have been with some paint apps! Great stuff dude

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

Thank you. So much wasted opportunity with those back shell halves.

[@gw9241]

Thanks for another great Pretender review - really been enjoying this series. I've also learned from this review, you don't mess with Amazon's 😀.

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

Yep, you'll never get ahead....but they will.

[@gw9241]

@@PatriotPrimeReviews yeah, they certainly will. It's funny looking back at the 80's comic book storylines as a kid they didn't seem that weird, or the TV storylines where you had the Decepticons hiring Furg (a punk with a mohawk), to act as a bouncer for their Dancitron nightclub. Gotta love them.

[@J_Lee712]

The Mechanibbals remind me more of robot killer tomatoes. Next time at my lcs gotta look for some of these issues.

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

LOL!!!! Never thought of that, you're right.

[@WolfKang1]

I always found the other Autobot Pretenders such as Splashdown, Groundpounder and Sky High to be far better in terms of their pretender shell designs. I don't think those 3 I mentioned were available in the UK. So owning them now is an absolute delight.

[@NathanSimmonsSworn]

Great review man! You definitely need to watch Headmasters, Masterforce, Victory & Zone!

[@jason77584]

Great video👍 my favorite of the autobots pretender is metalhawk from master force one of the hardest to find but I have three different recantation of him so they will have to due

[@ionacustoyreviews857]

The tf comics issue with the girl holding cloudburst has I believe Jim lee artwork on the cover.

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

I never realized that, thanks.for the info.

[@ionacustoyreviews857]

Patriot Prime Reviews I might be wrong. But I am pretty sure I am right. I think it’s like a $10 book

[@NinjabillReviews]

I never owned these fellows, so seeing them in action in your review is awesome! I regret not getting some of these guys ..as we all do when time passes on hahaha. I like his overall look, the colors really work well, and your idea of spreading out the wings really does look better. Thanks for yet another great look at this awesome old-school figure.

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

My pleasure, I love showing off classic bots.

[@blue18404]

Cliffjumper returns

[@Tattimusprime]

I can't believe I'm going to say this, but this is the only pretenders that I wouldn't keep hidden in the attic lol in my opinion this is the best of them all.\m/

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

I knew I'd turn you around...but I'm not done yet.

[@Tattimusprime]

@@PatriotPrimeReviews you have a rough road ahead of you my friend lmfao! \m/

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

Have you seen my Thunderwing Review?

[@Tattimusprime]

@@PatriotPrimeReviews somehow I missed it, going to check it out now\m/

[@mr.vgamestoys8066]

Nice figure and review bro I love the little bios in the beginning of the videos too

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

Thanks, I started doing that with my very first G1 review and git great comments regarding it.

[@jermaineivey4699]

Well done for actually trying to explain the Mecannibals story. It was awful...!!!! Cloudburst was my first Pretender.

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

I even reread it after I did the Landmine Review and still had a hard time explaining it.

[@fstopcornea]

The autobot pretenders remind me of Kenny of South Park, what with just the eyes being visible 😀

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

Holy Crap...I never thought of that.

[@KingofPotatoPeople]

Cloudburst and Bomb Burst must be related! Long lost brothers?

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

Hmmmm. I look into that when I research Bomb-Burst's history for his review.

[@chrisvellner3922]

Instead of replacing Cloudburst's outer shell, why not find a hobbyist with an airbrush and some skill to touch-up the ghost-grey paint? Finding an original G1 in better shape may be expensive.

[@Rudy_Zissou]

I'm looking for something quite niche in my comics.. I definitely need Microchips from outerspace. Check. Robot eating balls. Check. Amazonian warrior space hotties. Check. NAILED IT.

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

God I loved the 80's!!!!!!!!!!

[@Rudy_Zissou]

@@PatriotPrimeReviews Me too!! Some it is pure genius and will never see the likes of it again. hahaha

[@Rudy_Zissou]

@@PatriotPrimeReviews Fantastic review.. Really is one of the better Pretenders across all elements. Still has a large noggin though.. lol

[@alekskot9240]

i check on the screen the sitrep label, but nothing

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

Go to my playlist on my main page, the one on screen is just an image...not a link.

[@marcusgurley9495]

do you need masterforce?

[@PatriotPrimeReviews]

I don't have one Masterforce figure
