Transformers G1 Triple Changer OCTANE! Bert the Stormtrooper Reviews!

[@baredas]

Remember getting this for christmas back in the 80s. Still have the figure with box insert and everything....still love the original G1 toys.

@@baredas that's awesome! Thanks for watching!

Another great G1 review my friend. The Decepticon Triplechangers are far superior to their Autobot counterparts.

[@BertTheStormtrooper]

@@PatriotPrimeReviews agreed. They're so good! Thanks for watching brother!

I always find it odd why they didn't bother to hide those arms in verhicle mode. Must say his head looks nicely sculptured. I love the recent third party one: MechFansToys MFT MS-27

@@randywatson8347 they were trying new things, some worked better then others I guess LOL! Thanks for watching!

IIRC, Octane's jet mode was supposed to be a Stratotanker, which was actually larger than the space shuttle for good reason. The stratotanker was purpose-built for aerial refueling of military aircraft. So it's size is required to hold all the fuel it needs to haul. In fact, even a standard airline 747 is larger than the space shuttle.

@@GCJACK83 good info, thanks for sharing and watching!

@@warwolveairsoft thanks so much brother!

Wonder how long it will be for him and Broadside to get WFC/Legacy style updates

[@BertTheStormtrooper]

Would be great to get updated versions of both! Thanks for watching!

I had this figure as a kid and he was my favorite triplechanger. I have to get him again.

[@ZedMazaus480]

Ah, that brings me back. This was one of my beloved and well played figures growing up. It makes me wonder when we'll see a new version of him again. The last one I remember seeing was the classics Octone. If it's been that long ago then this poor guy is reeeeeally in desperate need of a new figure. Hopefully they'll make him a leader class so he can get a good figure compared to the ones I mentioned.

@@ZedMazaus480 would love to see an update on this guy! Thanks for watching!

[@mr.motormaster9881]

I have this one🎉

Hey thanks for getting out a ruler/tape measurer & giving us the actual dimensions of the figures instead of just pulling out some random-ass figure that nobody owns to do comparisons with. A lot of other reviewers on here are notorious for doing that. As for the Optimus Prime there, out of all the bootlegs, reissues, re-releases, re-tools, & repaints over the past 41 years, in 2025 there's absolutely no reason why anyone who wants a G1 Optimus Prime mold can't get ahold of some variation of it. Also if you count all the variations of G1 Ultra Magnus that were released that's even more options for you.
