The MANY Figures of Ransack & Crumplezone - Getting to Know Ransack & Crumplezone from Transformers

[@harrisonwhaley7872]

“He got a speedstars” killed me 😂

[@ronbondujon9690]

Just saying, Starscream never got a speedstars. Crumplezone is better than Starscream confirmed!

[@Khristoka]

I'm looking forward to seeing Hotshot Red Alert and Scattershot to be next

[@ronbondujon9690]

Finally some UT love in suggestions! I can tell you, I’m dying to do a video for Hot Shot, Red Alert would be great, and I already have Scattershot in the que. Now, I have a lot of viewer suggestions, so it may quite awhile before I can make those videos, but absolutely they are going onto my list!

[@Goldtendo27]

trailbreaker/trailcutter. This guy is literally the most forgotten autobot from s1 g1 istg

[@ronbondujon9690]

That would be a great video. I’m goin to put Trailbreaker on the list, we’ll get to him before too long!

[@valentinvintila4246]

He may be forgotten, but then there is that monsterbots from like 1988

[@Goldtendo27]

Yes but I said the most forgotten from generation 1 season 1.

[@ronbondujon9690]

@@Goldtendo27 You’ve really got me thinking about that. I was thinking that Reflector might come close, but I think even he has more toys and media appearances. That’s wild.

[@ronbondujon9690]

@@valentinvintila4246 Once you get past 1986 all the way up until Beast Wars, there’s a whole ocean of forgotten weirdos.

[@geraldsinger9954]

Dark Crumplezone was the FIRST Transformers toy that I ever had alongside Brimstone, Shortround, and Soundwave from Transformers Cybertron.

[@ronbondujon9690]

That’s a killer line-up! Man, there’s always some magic to the toys you had when you were a kid.

[@DeltaTrion]

Was not even aware of his Movie verse existence. Wild!

[@ronbondujon9690]

A part of me would like to think that ROTF Ransack and Speedstars Crumplezone are buddies that eventually retired to Cuba to play volleyball.

[@theguywiththegoatee7801]

10:35 well, yeah. Its from when Optimus beat the absolute living tar out of Crumplezone on Gigantion. To quote, "When we catch up with him, and he feels our true power, he'll regret beating us up again and again and again and again" And "I hope you dont think I'm beinga tad excessive!"

[@ronbondujon9690]

Weirdly enough, they seemed to fight a few times in the show. I guess that’s what happen when you only have, like, six Decepticons for half of the show.

[@ZunkleFunkle]

I don't think I ever realized that Dark Crumplezone's mold is slightly different and pointier than the original Crumplezone.

[@ronbondujon9690]

Real talk, I didn’t realize it either until I made this video! It’s a cool part of the figure, but I think the colors make it hard to notice unless you have both Crumlezones next to each other.

[@red_crayon9771]

Love these toy evolution videos. Glenn walked so that these can run.

[@ronbondujon9690]

Man, I wish I was even in the same universe as Glenn Webb. He was the greatest toy talker of all time. Thank you so much for even making the comparison!

[@choostopher5018]

Really looking forward to Sideswipe next (and Sunstreaker and Jazz who I am sure you will do) but strangely I also want to see what you can do with Skids.

[@ronbondujon9690]

Sunstreaker and Jazz are both on the list, actually! Jazz was going to be the video after Sideswipe until I changed some things around. As for Skids, I was actually just thinking about him! He’s absolutely going into the viewer request que!

[@XsToyUniverse]

These two were never on my radar but you may have sold me on tracking down their figures. Lol . Great job. Subscribed!

[@ronbondujon9690]

Well, thank you thank you! I just hope you like the other stuff I have coming out before too long.

[@ToaKoran]

I own both of them, and I can genuinely recommend them both as they're just such fun, personality-filled figures. Even if I put the nostalgia-goggles away they're just fun and look great. Ransack I would say is probably one of the best figures Cybertron ever got, as he has insane articulation for the time at probably the smallest size class outside of Minicons. He even has a waist swivel and an ab crunch, the former being obscenely rare on bigger figures, and the latter not even existing for figures besides him. You'd be doing yourself a favor to get either of the repaints of both of these guys.

[@ronbondujon9690]

@@ToaKoran I really need to find Ransack. My cousin had one when we were kids, and I remember how great the figure feels. I still think his proportions are off, but the toy itself really is something special.

[@TFfan_09]

You should do Landfill, he’s awesome

[@ronbondujon9690]

Landfill, huh? It would be cool to talk about, but he doesn’t have many figures. Maybe if I did a video with him, Quickmix, and Scoop together! It may be awhile before we get to them, but that could be a fun time.

[@mitchmegaw7201]

I love biplane Ransack. He is one of the bots I have on my fairly small shelf. I also love the twins as the ice cream truck from the same movie line.

[@ronbondujon9690]

That was an awesome pair of figures! Probably the only Mudflap and Skids I want to get back in my collection!

[@spyredrum3447]

Can you do the many toys of WarPath I love the interesting history of transformers toys

[@ronbondujon9690]

I’d love that! Warpath has so many underrated figures. I’ll add it to the list!

[@talljoke]

I have that movie Ransack toy with a missing hand. Such a weird, ugly and oddly complicated figure. I love it so much.

[@ronbondujon9690]

He’s just so unique! I think his biplane mode really carries him, but there’s a lot to like about Movie Ransack.

[@Big_Em]

Fansproject made a Ransack years back. His name was Plunder.

[@ronbondujon9690]

Oh, wow! It was a retool of the Kickback, it looks like. This never came up in my research, thank you so much for telling me! That’s the rough thing about talking third party toys, so many of them just disappear after awhile.

[@donkeykong6426]

I love armada hoists quarry crane mode from whatever era you can think of

[@ronbondujon9690]

It’s such a great vehicle mode! I really wish we got more construction vehicles that *aren’t* Constructicons.

[@tommy2longview]

Because the Cybertron Crumplezone hits soo hard, it defaults the cybertron Ransack as my definitive "Ransack"... I just consider the g1 deluxe ransack as a seperate guy like i do the many joes and mikes i know in real life.

[@ronbondujon9690]

True, true, true. I think IDW was the first time where that kind of thing was acknowledged, with the Tankors all hanging out and people confusing G1 Knockout with Prime Knock Out. I understand why it wouldn’t work so well in a toyline, but I think that’s a good way to justify there being so many characters with similar names.

[@charliemarkle]

Really cool video man! Btw I was wondering if you could do a video on my favorite conman the one and only swindle (if you want to of course)

[@ronbondujon9690]

I would love to do Swindle! Now, I have a big list of requests that I’m working through, so it may be a bit, but Swindle is going onto the list!

[@charliemarkle]

@@ronbondujon9690 Thanks! Also don’t worry man take as much time as you need.

[@turboking9238]

I really hope Legacy does something with these two!

[@ronbondujon9690]

I would love that. I’d hope Crumplezone would get a new mold, but Cyberverse Chromia/Animated Prowl would be an awesome Ransack

[@Cheesimusprime2012]

Please make a vid on jazz blaster or cliffjumper after side swipe

[@ronbondujon9690]

Jazz was supposed to be right after Sideswipe, but I had to switch some things around. That said, Jazz will be out soon, and I’m going to put Blaster and Cliffjumper on the list!

[@nitromenace1424]

Would love if you covered Barricade.

[@ronbondujon9690]

Barricade has been getting a lot of love in the suggestions! The next Vids are going to be Thundercracker, Beachcomber, Lockdown, Jazz, and Breakdown. Those videos are all nearly done, so they get wrapped. After that, though? I think it’s time to give Barricade some love!

[@Marc048b]

i'd love to see a video on jazz and laser cycle at some point ^^

[@ronbondujon9690]

Jazz was supposed to be the one after next, but I had to shift think around so Thundercracker could be the 1000 subscriber special. Jazz will be one of the next few out, though!

Magnus would be a really cool character to look into, it would also be a great primer for an Optimus video. I have a lot of viewer requests I still need to work through, but I’m putting Magnus on the list!

[@dedalionarts6077]

If are in a market for sugetions, how about characters like Warpath Scattershot Or Guzzle ? (And yes, I'm a Autobot tanks enjoyer 😊)

You should do barricade or blackout next

[@ronbondujon9690]

Brawn would be an awesome video, and I have a lot of his toys, to boot! I have a lot of viewer requests to make, but Brawn absolutely is going onto the list!

[@CobbicusPrime]

I think the purple plane is a Corsair.

[@ronbondujon9690]

I had someone else comment that, too! Apparently, it’s a match for a specific year of Corsair, to boot.

[@Spideysuperiorfoe]

Can you do rollbar next??

[@ronbondujon9690]

Rollbar would be a fun one. I have a big list of requests to work through, and the next ones out will be Sideswipe, Thundercracker, and Beachcomber. That said, Rollbar is going on the list!

[@rikajougasaki3296]

If you're up for a mix of obscure and "slapped onto plenty of characters", why not try Brimstone? He's a Star Seeker and I had been expecting his toy, but alas it is not meant to be while goddamn Filch and Nightstrike get the goods.

[@ronbondujon9690]

Brimstone’s a really good pull! I have a lot of suggestions to tackle, but he’d be a fun video to research! Also, I share your frustration. I want Cybertron Brimstone back.

[@rikajougasaki3296]

We have two pterodactyl molds to turn into Brimstone yet no sign of it. In fact, they're not being turned into anything beyond the characters they already are. I guess there's the inevitable Gamer Edition Shockwave to make a thing from, seeing how they like to recreate Botcon Exclusives in comparatively cheaper forms.

[@ronbondujon9690]

@@rikajougasaki3296 I could see Cybertron Brimstone possibly getting into one of those buzzworthy 4-packs. Maybe if they did one just for Cybertron Universe or Unicron Trilogy characters?

What about beast wars retrax

[@ronbondujon9690]

I’ll be honest, I don’t know how well that would work. Retrax really only has one toy, two if you count the rerelease. At the same time, maybe I could roll him into a video about one-toy Beast Wars characters? 🤔 Let’s see what could work!

[@towzone]

5:20 Arrogant perception.
