@@tappajavittu That all stems from the same problem though. If we spent more time with the Transformers, we'd understand their motivations more, and if they weren't always cutting away to the human characters every two seconds then it would be a lot easier to follow the action. (Not to mention I'm pretty sure every incarnation of the Transformers features both sides committing horrendous war crimes)

The problem I have with the Bayverse, is Bay's attitude towards Transformers as a franchise. Saying: "it doesn't matter how bad it is, you're still gonna go see it." Meaning he only cares about money.

I'm always astounded by Bob Budiansky's ability to create separate individual personalities for literally hundreds of different robot toys. It must've been creatively exhausting for him. Yes, I know we're not talking about great literary characters here, but nevertheless he had to help the readers differentiate between what often were many samey looking toys I also loved how their personalities were often thematically linked with their names As a creative writer myself I'm kinda in awe of how he did this for so many years

I really love the AOE Autobots; their personalities and designs really sell the fact that these are essentially the only available Autobots able to respond to Optimus's call for aid, and what we end up with are more or less the worst of the worst, a pack of weirdos who don't really like each other all that much. Maybe its my immense Bayverse bias, and AOE being my favorite, but these Autobots were a lot of fun.

I chuckled a bit when shortly after, the video got to that very iteration of the character. 😂

At this point, I think it's a very real question whether the movieverse Crosshairs can do the Knock Out or Bulkhead thing of displacing his older counterpart entirely. On the one hand, he's definitely more successful, on the other hand, well... fourth-at-best billing in the post-DOTM Michael Bay films is not exactly a high honor. I don't think it helps that his whole "car trenchcoat" design is infamously not very toy-friendly.

Maybe another of his special abilities would be letting him shoot rapid fire without any need for weapon cooldown for a few seconds or something.

His vehicle mode his maximum speed is 160 miles per hour. His Target Master Partner is a dual RPG(Rocket Propelled Grenade) Launcher that can lock on target in less than.00006 breems Crosshairs is notoriously cautious and Pinpointer is a member of the Nebulon Rebels and not only a sharpshooter but also a solider in the Nebulon Rebels led by Gort, also Crosshairs is not only a member of the Heroic Autobots but also he is a member of The Autobot Target Masters, also thank you for sharing Chris keep up the great work and have a good night.🙂💪🟢👍✌️💚🦸🏋️🌆

My only toy of AoE Crosshairs was.the one with the big fist. I wonder why he got that instead of something related to quick drawing

I can imagine crosshairs interfacing his systems with a computer that just so happens to have Minecraft installed on it, and instantly becoming a pro, not just because he was a robot.

I absolutely loved Crosshairs' design in the Bayformers movies. I know it's a little bit out there with the trenchcoat but it's inspired me to make my own version of Crosshairs that's a mix of Boyformers Crosshairs and Transformers Prime Soundwave- wish I could show off the design here but this is just the yt comment section. Crosshairs needs a bit more love imo

Maybe it's a generational thing, but to me the original Targetmaster will always be more well known than the movie character. They may have made more toys of the movie version, but that doesn't necessarily mean that he's more popular, because a lot of fans don't like any movie characters, and most just would rather ignore anything that comes out of the movies, especially all of the name slap characters. The Targetmasters in general don't get a lot of representation though in media or toys anyway. They've got a cool gimmick, but it's either too costly to make a lot of figures, or comics and shows just don't know what to do with them really, because you have to incorporate so many characters with all of the partners.

I didn't even realize he was in the bay movies, but then again I only ever subjected myself to the first one. I mostly remember him from the Marvel comic and even then only barely. It's funny that in Regeneration One he got his toy/anime style head finally, I guess he got rebuilt a bit sometime between issue 80 of the original run and then.
