Ni Stuff Filch is actually a girl and she’s a crow hence why she’s even in this line 🤣

Hell yeah

[@beartrapinuwuland]

I want to believe that Roadpig puts his faction symbol on his foot to kick other cybertronians and freaking mark them, he looks the coolest to me.

[@NiStuff]

Dude yes, thats now my headcanon lol

[@scpenry]

Fun dact, Lockdown is the only one in the wave without the Star Raiders faction badge, which I've chosen to interpret as him being there to collect the bounties on the pirate crew.

[@NiStuff]

Ooooh nice!

Calcitron also does not have one

[@krimsonklaww611]

One of the only waves where I decided "y'know what, I need the WHOLE WAVE", because every figure had something I wanted about it.

[@NiStuff]

Hell yeah, it’s a great variety. Love a variety.

[@Will_Informed]

The secret satchel getting more and more ridiculous is my new favorite bit. I knew you would like cannoball the best, swirly gold plastic is beautiful and maybe dangerous which only adds to the beauty.

[@NiStuff]

🤣 and yeah Canonball’s the goddamn best!

[@arielverger5960]

Thanks!

[@Bunbiichuffn]

I think Filtch is a "she" but you wouldn't know that from the box. I miss the little bio blurbs we used to get

[@NiStuff]

Hell yeah and 100% a lil blurb or bio really goes a long way.

[@krimsonklaww611]

Ferak didn't really interest me at first, then when I saw him at the store, that off-white color looked so much better in person than the white in the stock photos.

[@NiStuff]

Nice!

[@michaelbeachy2435]

Dude! Thank you for recording and producing in the face of terrible life events. You're great at *this* and are bound to level up soon.

[@NiStuff]

Thanks! Appreciate it! 🥲

[@weby6731]

Since you’ve booted their captain, you can replace him with Flamewar :D

[@NiStuff]

Hell yeah! The one true goblin pirate captain has returned!

[@grimwolf100]

1 cannonballs weapons can fit in his legs like the og toy 2 filtch is a fembot 3 lockdown is based on his movie look so is technically the first and as of now only movie rep in legacy / AOP 4 the bat flag can plug into thundertrons shoulders

[@NiStuff]

Hell yeah, good fun facts!

[@theStridingRebel]

if you have Commander Rodimus Prime, you can attach the sword that came with him to Thundertron's "coat bits" on his waist, so it's like how a Pirate would have his sword sheathed.

[@NiStuff]

Ooooh nice!

[@TyphonMar]

I was delighted to learn that the bat can tab into Thundertron's shoulder

[@NiStuff]

Ooooh nice

I'm Australian these are general release here , well any serious toy/hobby store has them . Really like the Star Raiders good to have a 'different' faction

[@NiStuff]

Woah, crazy. And yeah agree, super fun wave!

[@astromotive6047]

12:37 Oh no Ni! You've now put in my head the mental image of some obsure forgotten movie from the 90's called *BABE: Roadpig in the City* .

[@NiStuff]

🤣 hell yeah

[@peppermintspacecapsule9898]

Sorry about the job, matey. In the plus-column, i did get four of the six new *Rock Lords* for Christmas! Now I just need Shard and your new homeboy, Calcitron, to make up the set. After talking to my nephews recently, I had to call their Dad, my brother, and get him to go outside and sift through his recycling bin before the binmen came to empty it, so that he could retrieve *all* the packaging from the Transformers I'd bought for his kids. I had to explain to him that those little bags are *not* packaging! Those are accessories! Those are 🎵 *Secret Saaatchels!* 🎵

[@NiStuff]

Hell yeah! 🤣 the true precious cargo!

[@amirrashidan3047]

8:51 I mean he was conceived at the time when old shows like Thundercats and Voltron were seeing their modern revivals. Additionally, the Legacy Thundertron's lion mode was designed with the Ligers from Zoids series in mind.

[@NiStuff]

Ah, got it!

[@panbat2367]

5:29 Oh, most depthinately. (Not really. Just wanted to make that pun.)

[@JollyMcCrowner]

if you really want to complete the star raiders, *youre gone have to spend $200+ on tidalwave* you are SOOOOO lucky to own cannonball man!

[@NiStuff]

Dang, Tidal waves a Star raider? Oof and why? Did cannonball get short packed to hell?

[@JollyMcCrowner]

@ according to botcon, yes. cannonball is just very sought out after (i think walmart learned for their cosmos incident)

[@thachocolategod]

My condolences sweet prince on the job predicament. I wish I could call upon mighty Unicron and have a position open for you as a mighty herald but alas I too,am a worker drone. This was a good review and a great wave of robots. Keep your head up and a positive spirit about you, I know things will work out soon. You're smart, charming, and charismatic so you will be back in the game in no time comrade!

[@NiStuff]

Hell yeah! Killer peptalk, appreciate it!

[@MethodFigures]

I only have cannonball and filch so far!!!! But I love them both so much but I have a personal attachment to filch she’s one of my favorite transformers

[@NiStuff]

Nice!

[@NiStuff]

Hell yeah, thanks! 🥲

[@harrisonwhaley7872]

There is an “official” build to make lockdown taller using the arms of Roadpig that Mark from Hasbro showed off on his instagram. However it would mean no arms for the pig boy

[@NiStuff]

Rip to all the armless pigs out there.

[@harrisonwhaley7872]

@@NiStuff dude ikr! I debated getting a second one to have them both in optimal shape, however I felt like it wasn’t worth it since I’m sure we will eventually get a more animated Lockdown someday

[@JROD082384]

I quite enjoyed how it sounded like you got progressively more drunk with each subsequent secret satchel. Please don't abuse the sauce in your time between jobs, but do keep us entertained as you usually do. Hope you get a new job soon, bro.

[@NiStuff]

[@SwedishSeacon]

Fun fact about the first Thundertron figure: you could fan-mode his one foot into a little parrot if you wanted him to go all peg leg. That way you had some usage for the foot when it wasn't attached..

[@NiStuff]

Nice

[@itsahostiletakeover]

🎵Secret satchel, whoaaaaa🎵 Filch is the only one of these I needed myself. As others have said, she is indeed a she. And as a Baltimore Ravens fan I needed a corvid Transformer 😅 Doesn't hurt that I love that Airazor mold already. The Filch of the Robots in Disguise cartoon was a Decepticon so she and Terrorsaur squaring up against Airazor and Skywarp on a shelf looks cool. Hate to hear that about your job man, you'll bounce back, keep your head up.

[@NiStuff]

Hell yeah and makes sense. Birds hate each other lol

[@pugmasterben]

Sucks that you don't like the most piratey of the pirates. Thundertron is one of my favorites of the crew. I don't have Filch or Roadpig yet but so far Cannonball is my favorite

[@NiStuff]

I wanna like him lol theres just something inside me thats like: ew

[@Eevee007King]

Sorry to hear about your job and Good luck with your future careers

[@NiStuff]

Thanks!

[@TechnicalJimActual]

I feel like the Star Raiders just came & went abnormally quickly for something I assumed was going to be a big deal. Maybe it was just my area & those deep discounts on Ferak & the Thundertron multi-pack? I saw some stuff on the shelves, but even the Holiday consumerism rush didn't clear the shelves. I guess more kids were asking for video games than plastic toys & other physical stuff?

[@NiStuff]

Dang, thats sad to hear. Done real bangers in this set, aside from Thundertron lol

[@snowbalalex]

Sorry to hear about the job dude, I really hope you bounce back! Also I'd be very happy to kick a little your way via a Patron or something if you ever spin one up.

@@Scerttle yeah, threads has also fallen to the darkside lol I’ll try out bluesky!

[@nopenopington2880]

My order from favorites to least is Cannonball, Thundertron (worth getting him twice considering I lacked Ratbat to put on his shoulder with the original Legacy figure), Ferak, Filch, Lockdown (while still cool doesn't feel too good to transform), and Roadpig (his legs bother me, I always feel like hes leaning too far on one).

[@NiStuff]

Nice!

[@quaginator]

Not sure if your job loss (sorry if true) is a contributing factor to a very wacky video! My fave so far nonetheless, and I've seen a whole bunch of them. Keep ya head up, and fingers crossed you land a new gig soon!

[@NiStuff]

Yeah, its a good one! Names can tell you alot about people / things. And this name says: buy me lol

[@Norrisc761]

Cool video, as always. Keep up the excellent work! I hope things work out for you soon. Do you think your hatred for the ultra-cool Thundertron is why you lost your job? Maybe your ex-boss thinks Thundertron is the coolest Star Raider ('cause he is). If so, your ex-boss sounds like a great guy! ;) In all seriousness, I lost my dream job years ago because I didn't like football and my boss, and his cronies loved it. I didn't fit in, so they fired me. They were all about money too, and I was all about being a good person. They were lousy at their jobs, and I was really good at mine. I've suffered with depression and anxiety ever since. Sorry for the rant. Where was I? Oh yeah. Great video! Can't wait for the next one! Keep your chin up

[@NiStuff]

Thanks and Dang, yeah work sucks. And nah, no one I’ve ever worked with has openly expressed any direct interest in Transformers let alone Thundertron haha but I’m happy you like him.

Imagine the gijoe crossover movie, if it ever happens, one lone motorcycle rolls up with a holo rider of that Gijoe character… it comes to a stop, the rider flickers out and then the bike transforms with a classic bay style panning / swoop camera movement… transformation ends where the camera movement began, the robot looks directly at the audience and says: NAMES ROAD PIG… how yall doin… oh, also I’m a PIRATE I guess… har haarrrrr!
