Loser double-comment I know, but I’ve only been collecting since mid-2022, and the LG Arcee mold’s transformation feels SUPER unique and fun to me, making me wonder if maybe its steps were more common before the John Warden era. As it stands, the way her legs kinda fold PAST her torso and then go BACK to make the rear wheels, with the seat formed from a mashup of torso and pelvis that really hides her robot mode well, is all very distinct from anything I’ve done with a WFC/Legacy figure. Not meant as like some kind of objection, just fascinated to know if maybe your apathy toward it is because her kind of contortionist transformation was maybe more common back in the T30/Classics/etc. days

The Transformers Toxitron Collection are pretty cool. -Toxitron himself looks cool. Like the lime green, light/bright purple and grey colors. The orange Matrix of Leadership he comes with, I call the Matoxic. Matrix and toxic blend together. -Watermelon Mirage looks like he took up residence in Florida. -Dead End looks more lively then his G1 personality. I'm surprised that he didn't have a name change like the G2 Dragstrip figure from the Velocitron set renamed Shadowstrip. -Sunset Sideswipe looks very relax. Like he chills by the beach. -Orange Jazz is cool. The first unreleased version of G2 Jazz that was just concept art. He feels like Jazz got a job as a spokesman for SunnyD. Like the added weapons. -Lazer Cycle Jazz. She is base on another unreleased G2 Jazz, but got a toy but was cancelled. Everything about this figure, I like, but the tightly whities should have stayed white. -G2 Grimlock looks cool. In robot and dino modes, I prefer these colors over the old G2 blue colors. But wish the aqua blue tiger stripes went further up his back instead of being on the tail. -Buzzworthy Bumblebee Tow Line... I have mixed feeling about. I wish he wasn't a repaint with a new head from existing mold, and look more like his RID2001 self. But at the same time, like the new look. -Crosscut is cool. Honestly like this mold over Skids.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Toxitron's colors aren't as good in person. These colors on Deadend's robot mode with the altmode of the normal one would be great. Agreed the Tiger Stripes needed to not stop.

[@Windcharger84]

I feel the same about Towline, the scraphook mold doesn't fit him. He looks strange and out of place, not a big fan on the Laser prime mold, he looks good but a little skinny at the shoulders, I don't mind the look of it but it looks strange on the RID Scourge repaint

Laser Cycle is a "he" - it's based off of yet another unreleased concept for Jazz.

Alright so, never at any point were we told that these things would glow. You got your hopes up for soemthing we were never promised. Also I don’t get your point on KD mirage being Inferior. The kingdom gains so much more than one lost shoulder port. It got rid of the heinous transformation, only called that because of a really long strut. He wasn’t one whole process, he was 2 half hazardous shoved together. Also he gained an ab crunch out of it. Plus if you piss him right, there’s a port in the back of the shoulder for the launcher. I agree that this line is mostly a snooze fest, but the three largest go pretty hard.

[@KodyCrimson]

Toxitron has a complicated history. Basically he was a figure intended as a Universe repaint of G2 Prime/RID 2000 Scourge, but got cancelled. Then Botcon did their CW rendition of him and built upon the little bit of lore he had being an experimental clone of Optimus Prime who seeped toxic sludge from every orifice in his body with a whacked-out mind to match. So yeah, ANOTHER Optimus clone, but at least he's a more unique rendition of such. And fun fact, the Toxitron line, sans Toxitron, is all based on unused G2 decos.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Is he a con?

It would be weird if this was The Grimlock in the collection. (Though with the various Optimus body-types, Toxitron wouldn't stand out so much, we could call that Mirage "Barrage", every other G2 Autobot in the subline would make good genericons, and I have seen Crosscut be used as a type of Autotrooper before.)

Yeah! I actually thought about buying a Crosscut and using him as an Autotrooper. I thought he would go well with my two Legacy Red Cogs as part of a small team of troopers. But when I saw him on shelves, I just didn't feel interested enough to buy him, especially since I already have Skids

[@payback4140]

Do you not have a legacy evolution breakdown?

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I do not no. I've never seen one ANYWHERE.

[@dialNforNinja]

Have you seen the Toyhax sheets for Lemonwipe? It takes that sunset paint app and turns it up to eleven. Dorito Jazz importing some racing stripe flavor ends up looking really rad too, and the added color breakup on Pis-Cee takes it from bleh up to meh, if you didn't get rid of her already. Watermelon Mirage gets his gator stuff covered up with a lot of blobby lava lamp themes details, making him into an interesting OC instead of a random repaint where they threw darts at the neon color wheel, so that's kind of cool. The leadwers are the big disappointment of the lot, in that Grimlock doesn't include any more teal stripes to deck out his dino legs/bot arms or flanks/wings. I've been seriously considering picking him up now that he's started going on sale, but if I do I'll have to get some pearlized teal paint and handle that myself I guess. Toxitron meanwhile does add his name in big jagged 90s appropriate crazy letters down the side of the trailer and a bunch of cables and displays inside for its base mode, but just the usual scattering of G1-toy-like random greeble stickers and coverups for the transparent plastic to the cab/robot. I guess he's consistent in his disappointment? At least he's a different character to justify keeping a copy of the mold when I have the original versions of Laser OP and Nemesis Convoy and the WFCS/E toys are both better versions of Optimus Prime, though. Oh, and apparently according to convention comics lore he's working with the Wreckers because the Decepticons used him as an experimental subject and he wants to krump themwith the hate of a whole WAAAGH of 40k orks, and also latched onto them as the first bots to interact with him after a long damn while stuck conscious but frozen in place or something typically TF comics grimderpy. My 40k reference was intentional.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I saw them, they were pretty cool, but I can't say that I love the figure enough to want to put more money into it. I agree, Grimlock needed more stripes. That's a strange story they gave him as thats not super like the Toxic avenger at all, since he wasn't a bad dude before getting mutated.

[@hiimnameless5520]

The only thing I know about toxitron is that he was apparently a cancelled universe toy, I just think of him as this strange experiment that neither side of the war can knows who made him, he just showed up. I also like to call his stuff the might of sour candy

I got Dorito Jaz and Watermelon Mirage, and am still hoping to find Lemonwipe close to MSRP rather than 2-3x aftermarket markup. Jazz I used a little metallic lime green paint to pick out his visor (and WOW does that ever make it pop more) and he's easily entered into my favorites. Mirage, well, mostly makes me long for one in his normal colors, and think about busting out the 5mm drill bit to put a hole for his missile launcher to mount to in the tire that ends up behind his right shoulder. Lemonwipe... it's that sunset paint app. That's it, the whole thing that draws me to this figure. Why do I have to have such bad taste, and why do I not care? Ah well. At least it's the version of the mold I don't have yet, unlike the other four copies of Siegeswipe (original red, Diaclone yellow, G2 black, and "G2 Diaclone" blue editions) and I guess you can count Gigawatt too.

I in no way think g2 has the most pleasing color scheme, but this is so retroactively 90s that I just couldn't but pick up one, which was my boy "Orange Jazz". Now if could only get g2 dreadwing. His gatling gun is ILLIN after all

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I tend to not like G2 Colors much my self.

[@Windcharger84]

I would definitely pick up that dread wing, as long as there's smoke screan because we all know he's a 2 in 1 villain that's chillin

[@austinharris3139]

Only wanted a few from this sub line being Mirage and Grimlock. This Grimlock was pretty hard to find in stores, didn't want to buy it overpriced online.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Did you find the Grimlock?

[@austinharris3139]

@@PerspectiveEnd indeed I did. 👍

[@UnbreakableArachnid]

Finally got my hands in Grimlock and I love him probably bc I passed on the one ss86 one I ever saw but man he’s so much fun

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah the 86 Mold is Amazing, so having any form of it is a good thing.

[@jonrusek6503]

I don't know if anyone else thought this but I think the image on dead end's door is supposed to be a bullet.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

One other person mentioned that, and I can only see that in the vaguest of terms.

[@Ilostmycactus]

I love this Grimlock so much.

[@coffeeinhandproductions3238]

Out of all of these I would probably want the Toxitron, and Towline the most. Mirage I'm going to wait for the Crasher repack going into next year which now gives me a reason to order that Gobots pack if still available. I did come across most of the deluxe figures December last year and almost decided on Jazz, Sideswipe, and Deadend but I instead got SS Nightbird, and Mirage as I wanted something a bit more involved, and devisive. i do not regret my decision. .

[@PerspectiveEnd]

For a second there I had to think real hard who Towline was. Why were you after something Divisive?

[@nemesisproductions5987]

One time I got the legacy Deadend but the left shoulder wheel fell of and I lost it then the right one fell of now he’s just in a box

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah that part falls off too easily.

[@adrianesaffell9296]

Tbh I do like all of them I'm happy to have them all accept I did notice where is cloudcover?

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I forgot he exists.

[@TFfangeek]

Great video PerspectiveEnd!!! Will you also get Cloudcover? My favorite figures from this subline are Toxitron. Laser Cycle. and Cloudcover. due to them not being G2 versions of G1 characters. lol Keep on being amazing.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

At this point no. I did my Repaints Palooza, and I forgot he exists. I'm not going to pick him up now that I'm looking to offload most of the wave again.

[@TFfangeek]

@@PerspectiveEnd I understand. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and for shining a black light on these, as I call them, "Crayola" Transformers! lol :D
