[@TheLazyEyebrow]

[@nameforcomments4092]

I'm actively ambivalent on that Mirage. They definitely spiffed up the back and arms, might have reworked the whole torso transformation for better and worse (we'll see), and at least used new bits in the knees, but it's still kinda... eh. And the way they're throwing him in with the Dinobot recolor and doing them as an exclusive is kinda criminal.

I’d just like to applaud you for that Portal bit. That was so clean! And showing your animation rig through the bottom portal was a nice little bit of detail.

[@TheLazyEyebrow]

I'm glad somebody noticed the 4th wall break

[@h8GW]

Thanks for pointing that out. It's still pretty hilarious after being explained. Moving the rig to shadow Smokesc-...Bluestreak's horizontal movement would have brought it home.

[@horizontally_side_starscre2802]

Lazy Eyebrow: If only they made a better mirage... Hasbro: We heard the call...

[@darknightdown]

Definitely agree that these are the best versions of these characters, though aesthetically speaking I find Smokescreen better, as he has painted legs, where as Bluestreak and Prowl look like their legs are made out of glass, shame Hasbro couldn't splash a bit of paint on them, or you know, stop using brittle, breakable, clear plastic altogether 🤷🏻‍♂️ maybe the with the upcoming price increases they can afford to stop using it, but anyway nice review, really enjoyed it, thank you.

[@kevtronprime5182]

Honestly i feel the same about the names not matching the colors, also i got smokescreen at WalMart for $10 and bluestreak at Walgreens

[@cartkart1]

My earthrise smokescreen has a splotch of green paint on the back of his head and really loose knees, and when I transformed him once the peg on the inside of the shins got a stress mark. Now he can’t even transform at all, thanks Hasbro for your amazing QC work!

[@Whompens]

i watched the kick and roll, and the outro transformation of smokescreen so many times hahahah so well animated, man

[@maxbrandt6]

I really love that Bluesteak, he's one of my favorites from back in the day.

[@mightyfidif7090]

I guess I got fairly lucky with mine, having 3 out of the 4 not having the annoying roof problem. Bluestreak being the one the was sad, and he ended up being the first one I got and it got me worried about the rest to then not have the problem any of the rest, which made me super relieved, seeing as I really enjoy them.

[@wam9902]

If you want a fully G1 Smokescreen then you can take off the front end and 3d print a more accurate front end

[@andrewstewart5804]

Man I love your work keep it up my mom even likes watching it with me God bless an stay well

[@wam9902]

"now if only we had a better mirage" Kingdom Earth mode mirage gets announced the day it's uploaded lol also I am going to complete the trio, I have Smokescreen, I asked for Bluestreak for my Birthday (may 15th basically tommorrow), and I am going to buy a Prowl and Ironhide two pack "no matter the cost" (yes all Earthrise BTW) and I didn't think much of the mold until I transformed my Smokescreen for the first time, and I fell in love with the mold.

[@evanpassmore474]

Bluestreak was the first transformer Ive bought since 2006 and its brought me back into the world of Transformers so I really like this figure.

[@jonathanb1987]

I just ordered a set of the headlights from your Shapeways store. I'll have to buy a 3d printer one day.

[@cyberreatronprime]

Since Prowl was an exclusive and I'm not a huge fan of Smokescreen, I decided to get Bluestreak as my first dip of the mold. I am really impressed with literally everything about the figure. Great vehicle mode, amazing robot mode and that articulation is just insane. One of the most articulated deluxes ever. However my only gripe is the clear plastic, they feel weak and the pin joints there are also a little loose. Especially with so many breakage reports, I feel anxious handling the figure. I do feel it's more of the great display and one to pose around with but not one for consistent fiddling and transforming unless done with precaution. Nonetheless it's the best deluxe in ER imo

[@TFfangeek]

Epic review The Lazy Eyebrow!!!!! That opening skit was a riot of laughter. At 5:12 what did you want to mention about the price tag? I'm sorry to ask, but I did not catch what you wanted to say about the price of these figures. Glad you were able to get all four of the Earthrise Datsun Transformers. Keep on being amazing, looking forward to your next video.

[@TheLazyEyebrow]

My point was that it was amazing he got as much paint and remolded with the budget, but as such the lack of sponsorships is kinda lame

[@TFfangeek]

@@TheLazyEyebrow Ah, that makes complete sense. For the change in his racing number, I made a joke that Cybertron's racing committee does not allow the same Autobots to use the exact same racing number for life, and that numbers are recycled every 10000 Cybertron stellar cycles, or 1000 Earth years. LOL

transformers earthrise a.k.a "we sacrificed distribution and quality control to give you molded brakes on literally every figure even vehicles without them like semi trucks"

[@ShatteredGlassUnicron]

Speaking of that contemporary earth mode Mirage retool that got announced, it hurts my heart a bit that he sold out his pre-orders on pulse in a day while the two SGs still have theirs available. I am aware of the limited numbers the 2-pack with Grim had, but Blurr and Megatron have had weeks if not months of a headstart.

[@Vincent-396]

Great job. This was a fantastic review. I love these figures.

[@Brianguyanddude]

I try not to get more than one version of a figure mold and I chose smokescreen over bluestreak simply because he looked more unique and colorful with the blue and red. But bluestreak's still tempting me with his more sleek silver/gunmetal finish. The silver rims really help him too... Damnit I might just get him once this lockdown ends after all.

[@cliptrashbin2389]

I love these molds I hope they do the omnibots cause I would love to see a modern 3rd gen celeica supra downshift as I love the 240z and 280zx

[@NexusProductions-rz1sv]

The door wings are wings, shouldn't they move as if they were an actual other point of articulation? You know, like how wings are portrayed in literally EVERYTHING all the way back to the 80's. Also, noticed Prowl and Barricade were here, but you don't talk about them?

[@TheLazyEyebrow]

they do move, but the rest points are appreciated I'll talk about them in their own respecting 2 pack reviews

[@weik-2936]

Will you making a silverstreak repaint or your own custom paint for the mold?

[@pawarl.o.s.881]

I got Prowl and Bluestreak. I was going to get Smokescreen to complete the set then decided against it. I'm not even a fan of the mold. I'm terrified of breaking them and Bluestreak's legs won't even stay together in vehicle mode. I'm not going to buy another version of a mold I don't like. They look good but they don't feel fun to mess with. They feel too fragile. I might get him sometime but for now I'm not feeling it.

[@titusrodriguez286]

[@StealthBeeKid]

Am I the only one who thinks it was completely possible to make the legs out if normal plastic and then add the little clear piece inside (Just like with Kingdom Cyclonus cockpit)? Like, I can clearly see someone like DNA designs coming up a new leg piece and a pin remover so you just undo them, add your new legs made out of normal plastic and done

[@chasformer3091]

Now that is something I would buy

[@TheLazyEyebrow]

That would be killer, and easily done Apparently the issue isn't the windows, it's running out of mold space but having lots of real estate in clear

[@guardedbasket]

I have no idea why their names aren’t switched. Smokescreen is blue. And blue streak is gray

[@Jay_Rodimus]

Do you have the Fanshobby Naval Commander aka Armada Optimus Prime? It would be funny to have the Unicron triogy Prime (Who is a mix of Bright Noa from Gundam and Bay's Prime) meet G1 Prime and maybe other JP Transformers (Chromedome, Star Saber, and then Dai Altus collapsed on the floor with Lio Convoy and Big Convoy trying to pick him up)

I wish Hasbro would stop using clear plastic for everything. They should just get rid of it. Have the windows be solid plastic.

[@apolloknight9521]

I’m one of those people that got mixed up between Bluestreak and Smokescreen. For reasons being because of their color, when I heard the name Bluestreak my mind naturally made me assumed that Smokescreen is Bluestreak because he’s well blue while I assume Bluestreak is Smokescreen. As I said, their names tend to confuse me, as someone who as new in the Transformers Fandom.

Were it not for my sheer nervousness with the knees on both Siege and Earthrise versions of the Datsuns, I'd feel far more bummed that I can't get Prowl and Barricade (the ones I have an attachment to) on their own, coz these molds DO look amazing! As is, considering they're also kinda victims of Hasbro's unreasonably rampant exclusivity last year (such that I was actually fortunate to get Ironhide on his own, and at least SG Ratchet is "shelfwarming" for cheap so i can just paint him up), I don't feel too bad settling for Combiner Wars Prowl and TLK Premiere Edition Barricade with a Shapeways head.

[@senipain2785]

I know for me at least, I couldn't stand the Siege Datsons as I thought both robot and vehicle mode looked like complete trash to me. When I saw pics of the Earthrise versions... I could already feel my money slipping free from my poor abused wallet

[@Bobsheaux]

"Computer over?? Virus = Very Yes?? That's not a good prize! ...And the Teletraan just peed my carpet." re: custom headlights - I need to take this opportunity to say that I am so happy that I found this channel. It never occurred to me that modifying figures was an option, and as such, I've taken the liberty of spraying some rubber soles onto the heels, as well as securing the ankles of my Orthia combiner. Sure, she still suffers from some ratchet joints being flimsier than they should be (and I'm open to any suggestions on how to fix that), but just getting the feet to CONNECT to the legs like they're supposed to and not slipping and sliding around under her own weight is a VAST improvement. "And it isn't a movie-verse figure." Yeah, how DID Barricade get so popular that he's been reverse-engineered into a G1 character? Is it because he's the only other Decepticon who actually... TALKED?? You mean that these characters actually SAYING THINGS beyond just snarling and growling and declaring their names MIGHT just be IMPORTANT??? Get the f*** out of here...
