First time I opened the box, the fucking instant I touched the figure, Dai Atlas' main horn almost completely sheared off as if the plastic was made of sand. The wings literally felt like knock off plastic. Jesus, no wonder Takara stopped making exclusives after this.

Jesus, when I first saw these figures a few years ago I was like: "Damn, I'm digging how these guys look" but now, dear lord I didn't expect it to be THIS awful. What sucks is that I really like the designs of these guys, so seeing how absolutely dogshit these figures are makes it even more disappointing imo.

Sorry to hear that, at least I saved you the money. I may not like the look of these guys but the material problems here are astonishing.

[@teab0244]

I feel the same way. I actually really like the designs (to the point I even have a G1 Roadfire), but I’m only just now realizing just how badly made and quality checked they are.

lolwot? What's wrong with the SS86 Sweeps? They're just SS86 Scourge with a lighter color scheme, reversed hands, and no mold degradation to speak of. And it's a good mold too. If I didn't already own 4 SS86 Scourges I'd have picked up at least one of those. It's a fine alternative to SS86 Scourge for anyone who wasn't able to pick those up the first time around.

[@doctorprofessoroblivious1282]

"you guys added extra parts-forming?!" That is literally the figure's handheld weapon... so, no shit its removable? Fair enough on the rest of it though. But your absolute distain for the aesthetics as if they are an objective fact is annoying. You don't like it, fine, doesn't mean its the worst thing ever. The things like the drill being too small is accurate to the original toy which is what they are remaking here. if it were a "correct size" I bet you would complain about it being inaccurate to the original. i do want to mention that that I bought this set myself and will admit that i apparently hit the fucking lottery with the looseness of the figures in general and the "string spine" on Dai Atlaa himself is solid as a rock.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

It could have transformed without the Partsforming and had them still come off to form the weapon. That's all I'm saying. As for the next bit, I don't dare to claim that my personal taste when it comes to aesthetics is Objectively right, but it would really put a strain on the comedy to stop an interject a disclaimer that I don't think my tastes are factually correct. If it were the correct size I think my complaint would have more been that it's not even approaching the ability to fly anymore. I think actually what happened is I might have got the Cream of the Crap. After I released the video I did some thinking and realized this is likely the copy of the figure that was returned several times over for being too terrible, since it was the last one the BBTS had. So it might not be that other people got lucky with theirs, it might be that I got the foregone conclusion worst possible one.

Looking back on this set, it's actually rather interesting that despite the original set of G1 toys being designed by Takara, as it went on the Japanese side of TF went for alot more detailed and humanoid transformers, while the American side went for alot simpler designs, especially comparing G2 and BW to Car Robots and BW2/Neo (the most notable thing is look how little of the designs from there have Car/Animal parts be the chest of the robot)

Damn, based on the experiences people are putting into the comment section about this set, I must have been blessed by some devine deity because my version of this set dosent have any of the issues here to this extreme. The plastic feels as thick as any other Titans return figure and the joints are decently tight. The cockpit on the black one (Sonicaomaer/ Sonic Bomber) dosent lock into place and just hangs limply. The headmaster on my red one (Roadfire) is loose but still functions. Most importantly the string joint on my blue one (Dia Atlas) actually works as intended, but due to how the joint was designed he has a shakey torso. It stays attached but wobbles when you move it. If I may give some advice on the string joint, you need to make sure it is completely straight as casually move it into his body. Then when can't move it any further, sqweez the top and bottom half of the figure together, until you hear a click. If that dosent lock the figure in place, then quality control has truly forsaken your figure. I am sorry you and others spent so much on a set only to be burdened with issues. I hope your next expensive purchase is free of all the problems you experienced with this one.

Oh how this modern updates soils the Japanese Transformers legacy and the Brave series mecha directly modelled after them.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

The Japanese Transformers legacy is a soil upon it self, look what they did to Beast Wars.

[@Xeno-The-Wanderer]

We at least have Super Minipla Brave series and GaoGaiGar still gets enough love to get new figures and I believe Moderoid still makes the occasional Brave series figure but with Takara nowadays things seemed to have taken a bit of a dip though only on the transformers side, Shinkalion seems like it’s fairly popular overseas and merch as far as I can tell is good so who knows, maybe Hasbro is the real weak link here, doesn’t help that they stifle the creative possibilities of the franchise

[@Zo1dus]

Jeez, i know that japan loves noodles, but did they really have to include them into thier toys.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Oh man that was a good Joke. Yet another thing I wasn't funny enough to come up with in this vidoe.

[@aaronmosteller2997]

I’m glad I saw this, a buddy of mine wanted to sell his set to me for 200$. Definitely gonna wait for a new version.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I mean his is probably not as bad as mine, I have a theory that mine is uniquely bad, because probably what happened is when people were returning figures to the BBTS they weren't getting thrown away, just resold, so this being the last one was probably bought and returned several times for being so awful. But I don't think it would be worth the money either way.

Wow just wow. I had considered getting this a few months back, however I decided to get something else instead. Thank you for proving I made a wise decision. Like this is so bad it is making my least favorite transformer figure Retrax from Beast Wars look like a masterpiece. My mind is blown at how bad this is.

Oh man, I had Retrax, I hated him too. He sucked so bad, but yeah, some how this is worse and it came out like two years ago. Glad to hear you didn't waste your money on it.

@@illiteratedino ok . So long story short the transformers franchise started to take a dip in the early 90s is Japan, they started on another robot series called brave (one of the 2 exceptions to dril tanks) well after zone arrival they continued the story through magazines at the time witch was zone and the return of convoy, what they called Optimus in Japan. Now I don't really know how to look for the story on what happened. But to get a better explanation on this look up the basics on Japanese transformers

[@pandacyy2276]

I was a pretty big fan of the japanese sequel shows to g1 and their take on the headmasters. I prefered it to the American take and I was familiar with this character since he literally killed all the combiners and fricking trypticon in a straight to dvd finale of the japanese g1 anime shows. So it's cool that this guy even got a toy since he's a one and done type of character, even if the toy is a disaster. Almost fitting if you've watched any of the goofy anime disasters.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

That's what I hate about the Japanese stuff. It's always trying to flex on the actual normal Transformers media.

[@pandacyy2276]
