Transformers WFC Earthrise Hoist

A while back I was asked by Dr Lockdown if I'd like to participate to his HUGE review of every WFC Transformers toy. Well, here's my segment on Earthrise Hoist! It's only 2 mins long but kind of fun, I think. Would you be up for me doing more of this kind of thing? Let me know in the comments...

[@dustyyshellz1320]

Even prioritized hoist over trailbreaker so hasbro likes him! A moist move indeed

[@SixoTF]

Hoist >>> Trailbreaker any day for me and I like TB too!

[@SuperMookles]

Hoist definitely had the edge over Trailbreaker in terms of personality.

[@burkeperrotta4495]

I love this quick, but thoughtful type of review. Very awesome!

[@bradensmith8682]

Hoist also boasts one of the coolest head sculpts next to Needlenose and Spinister.

[@SixoTF]

It's pretty great

[@BugBoss1205]

Don't forget Beast Wars Scavenger.

[@Psientologist]

I would call this a great TRDQ but we don't want someone's lawyers getting involved ;) Almost love how beautifully filmed and framed your videos are, makes me want to get this figure even though I have the Trailbreaker redeco and that "should" be enough for me.

[@SixoTF]

Lol I would never presume to think I was as hilarious as Gav is! Oh, and thank you, that's nice to read! I try. :)

[@CardboardBots]

A beautifully shot, concise review. Every word a perfect choice.

[@SixoTF]

Aw thanks! I tried. Appreciate that.

[@_Jetbolt_]

Given the alt mode, I can easily imagine him having a friendly rivalry with RID Tow-Line over who tows the most vehicles during a day.

[@SixoTF]

A tow off

[@gryndkor]

I love him, he replaces my broken Hoist from the 80's G1 toy line. Plus having him pair up with my Grapple is a recipe for construction 😁

[@theperfectpixl]

I would dig more short-form offerings like this from you. Maybe as KZbin Shorts?

[@SixoTF]

Thanks! Yeah I had considered that as an option - they'd need to be portrait (or square) though so something to take into account

[@TheAutisticOwl]

​@@SixoTF I think square or even 4:3 for shorts might be a better idea because I've noticed that shorts in the 16:9 portrait format tend to have their sides cut off or cropped for some reason which hides just a tiny bit of content that's already obscured by the shorts UI

[@sandstormer8386]

I agree, he's superb. Trailbreaker too.

[@GhostPrimeReviews]

One of the thing I find kinda charming is where the battle damage is on this. Seems like a not to all the old G1 Toys that have chipped paint on the hood (bonnet?) of the truck.

[@SixoTF]

That's a good point!

[@fearorcourage]

"Onscreen colleague, and husband, Grapple." You understand.

[@SixoTF]

:)

[@jiturnha]

As much as I don't care for Hoist, videos and toys like this are making me warm up to him! Good stuff, would love to see more

[@SixoTF]

Thanks!

[@RosencrantzxGuildenstern]

While I had unfortunately missed out on ER Hoist, I've managed ot get myself a Legacy Lift-TIcket, and am more than happy to pretend he's Hoist after conveniently acquiring a super mode. I especially love the head articulation on this guy, really expressive compared to many of his WFC\Legacy colleagues. He also has some of the best crossing-your-arms-in-front-of-your-chest action you'll ever see on a TF.

[@SixoTF]

I’ll have to try!

[@HidaAtarasi]

This is the best looking I’ve seen this figure. I now seem to be on the other side of the fence even though I was nowhere near it.

[@chickensoup1312]

love this quick lil review! hoping there’s more on the way!

[@SixoTF]

I think there can be yeah, although probably not in exactly the same style as I think they’d need to work as shorts. I’m working on it though

[@blud890]

Hoist also makes me .... marvel

[@SixoTF]

EXACTLY

[@Its_Charlie_Young]

I love how you praise the figure even though DrLockdown ranked it quite poorly on his list.

[@SixoTF]

Haha yes I noted that - I had no idea what number he was ranking it at when I did the vid so it was quite funny. I stand by my assertion though! :D

[@Its_Charlie_Young]

@@SixoTF He's not a fan of the figure, as shown in the review he did. I quite like it. Wouldn't mind a Scorch retool of it.

[@SixoTF]

I'd be well into that too

[@mattimusprimal637]

0:20 He’s all too often overlooked. Even frequently playing second fiddle to his onscreen colleague, and close friend, Grapple*.

[@SixoTF]

Sure, sure

[@mattimusprimal637]

@@SixoTF There was no concept of “LGBTQ+” in Transformers, until IDW introduced it to the West.

[@muisverriet]

​@@mattimusprimal637False. In Japan Airazor was male so he and Tigatron were in a gay romance. Energon Mirage was also clearly in love with Megatron.

[@mattimusprimal637]

@@muisverriet 1: Japan is the East, not “the West” (as I said) and 2: Energon Mirage only became very affectionate towards Megatron/Galvatron in the Japanese dub.

[@muisverriet]

@@mattimusprimal637 Doesn't matter. You said there was no concept of LGBTQ+ in Transformers when there was.

[@adamagnus]

Husband? Not friends but husband. 😅

[@coris3436]

Husband?!

[@mattimusprimal637]

It's his own shipping of Grapple & Hoist. (as "Husbands")

[@SixoTF]

Just a joke really :)

[@veelioTF]

Sixxxooo

[@SixoTF]

Hellllooo

[@devy_max]

Crazy seeing some people get worked up over the husband comment when you’re clearly correct 🙄 (I love them and I think they are gay because why the hell not?)

[@michaellombardi1620]

I'm a fan of most of him, just those arms and the panels behind them aren't great

[@SixoTF]

Very reminiscent of the original toy though so I kinda like them for that
