Pipes Vs Pipes - Vintage & Modern Unboxing!

[@ctkaltwasser]

Happy 1 year anniversary to this video! (Sorry, it only just popped into my feed this morning!) I find it a little cute that during this video you didn't seem to realize how on the G1 Pipes toy the arms extend outward at the shoulder, and the legs extend down. Since you didn't get the full original package with the Transform instructions, I guess that is understandable. (And perhaps not wanting to break the 40-year-old plastic, in case it has become brittle!) I have my own 40-y-o G1 toy sitting by my desk and just love him for the nostalgia. Too bad he wan't much in the cartoon. It is a fun little toy. Also, great condition on that original Prowl G1 toy! I have him and Bluestreak as a couple of my earliest and sadly both had their cab plastic break at the windshield. Hard spot to glue well. Cheers!

You can pull the legs down on the g1. They compress for truck mode.

A fun twist on a usual unboxing video!

[@AFCManUk]

You've given me an idea! From now on, I'm going to describe any vintage toy that is still in great or pristine condition, as 'Mintage' 😀

[@goodzillah7837]

Yay! Great review! Would love to see you review more G1 stuff!

[@rowantalmage]

G1's legs extend too.

And the arms pull out a bit. I had him and always thought he looked far better than Huffer with his wonky arms and his inferior orangeness. I remember they transformed a bit differently.

Great seeing them together. I don't know this seller but I like his flare with points and all. I would love to see Hasbro do some sort of return to tech specs on the boxes.

[@AFCManUk]

I have a soft spot for old Huffer (and that particular mould), as he was my very first Transformer I purchased as a kid. Before him, I could only afford Go-Bots :D

[@retroandreissue]

I've been looking at some Gobots recently. They're definitely not as high quality as the Transformers but I don't think they're that bad at all. In fact, if I had to bet back then, I would've guessed the lower price point would give them the edge!

[@AFCManUk]

@@retroandreissue The fact they were very generous with the die-cast helped too!

[@CougarNyht]

I added Toyhax labels and touch up paint to cover all pins. I have two copies. One displayed in robot mode and other in alt vehicle mode.

[@BillyBobKornhol]

I still have my original G1 Huffer AND Pipes.

[@DeltaTrion]

Kingdom Pipes is so interesting to me. I picked up my copy on discount and while he has some issues, I can’t hate him. He’s just a blocky dude who’s great at being…..well….a dude

[@retroandreissue]

I never thought of him that way - maybe a bit of a Chad? lol

[@OwenTomiczek-wu4yq]

nice video keep making your videos i love them so much

[@JohnTheReflector]

i too have kindom pipes and i got him for 14 dolars

[@retroandreissue]

Nice! I'm really glad to have picked him up in the end - defo worth waiting for those lesser known characters and hopefully scoring some deals

[@BillyBobKornhol]

They have that Pipes for $12 on BBTS forever. I’m looking across the room at MINE right now 🤣🤣🤣🤣
