Why The Hell Does Lugnut Cost This Much?? | #transformers Reveal The Shield Voyager Lugnut

[@bungieman2810]

I have a funny memory regarding this guy. One day I was playing in my basement and said something along the lines of "Man, I wish I had more Transformers." My dad overheard me and led me to the closet in his office where he then pulled out RTS Lugnut still in his box. Since then, Lugnut is still on my shelves. Such a great figure. Thanks, dad!

[@Remember_Bubblebutt]

That's crazy, I wonder why he had it in there? That's a great random surprise.

[@boulder5540]

So here's the thing. Lugnut *was* rare back in the day. For some reason, he never hit mass retail until the very *very* tail end of the line and just went straight to those discount stores in limited quantities. It was great if you managed to find him in 2011 because he was like $15 from TJMaxx, but past that, you were absolutely shit outta luck. On top of him now being a cult character, yeah that's why he's rare and expensive.

[@fennekin1750]

Thats great! W mom!

[@gamblorrr]

I went to a toy expo with my mother because she collects barbies and I collect lego. That woman basically shoved me aside and haggled the shit out of so many sets for me. She was sweet talking and strong arming left right and centre. No one stood a chance. I reckon she saved me hundreds that day.

[@KarachoBolzen]

I still have this one! I remember playing with him back in the day, shit would always go down whenever he showed up. His jet mode is just so imposing, and he could flip out the giant cannon to rain hell from above! Imagine autobots running, screaming for cover, only for him to transform to land in the iron man pose in front of them, cutting off their escape... There's just so much cool stuff this guy could do. Also his giant articulated hands meant there were some other toys he could actually just pick up with one hand and hold by their collar! Then you could turn his other hand back into a wing, giving him a giant arm blade to threaten them with. I also mostly had deluxes, so him being a voyager meant he stood head and shoulders above everyone he was fighting, adding tons to his menace. Such a good time playing with this toy.

[@MrFedoraFilm]

With Animated Lugnut winning the hall of fame vote in 2022, I hope that Hasbro makes or announces a new Lugnut figure at the tail end of Legacy United or in it's sequel toyline.

[@SquatchyToyDad]

When this was released it was hard to come by in certain areas. I never saw it in my area and ordered it from eBay back in the day for around $50

[@alobaymar]

Now THIS was Legacy done well. Generations/2010 was a tribute for all continuities and gave them definitive REAL vehicles and keeping their colors, rather than blockifying/geewunning every design they touch. Sergeant Kup being a badass example

[@saimaidar9417]

That is one my favorite Kup figures, probably the only time he will ever have an Earth mode and it was a great adaption.

[@fennekin1750]

Yea, nahh, bro. You're all wrong. OG Generations/2010 was probably good, but that doesn't mean Legacy is bad at all. On the contrary, its actually really, really great! Most characters aren't even being G1-ified. They're more-so being Generations-ified, if at all. No, Generations-ifying isn't the same as G1-ifying; they're basically being changed _SLIGHTLY_ (if at all) to better fit in the Generations style. 9/10 figures who are affected by Generations-ification are really, really good. There are a few exceptions, tho, such as Shadowstriker, Strongarm, & especially Legarcee. Keep coping, bro.

I love this figure, but I had to get two copies because my first one started to develop a stress mark that evolved into a crack to form the hunch on his back. Couple years later, the joint holding his leg together just broke. I love him, and I hope this guy gets a much bigger figure in the future

[@thomasboguszewski7288]

Yo the same thing happened with the legs on mine - I have two copies and BOTH of them had the legs come apart at the knees and needed to be superglued back together. In addition, my first copy had two right wing tips. I wonder if breaking and/or QC issues made this toy extra scarce, and drove up the price.

I absolutely love Lugnut!! I own the Animated one. Loose and MIB! Was working on getting the Atomic version, but not I've gotta get this one first!! I really dig Transformers that actually look like an alien robot. Shockwave and Clobber are among my favorites for this reason! Already searched online for him while watching your video and the price hasn't changed much. Looking at a loose complete and a MIB one too. Thanks for this video!!! Haven't been this excited for a Transformer in a long while!! Mahalo, from a Transformer fan in Hawaii 🤙

[@empyreankirboi276]

I think that this is your best video. The music elements were a perfect fit.

[@thomasboguszewski7288]

One reason I think he’s so expensive is that many of them might have broken. I have two - my first one was a manufacturer error with two right wing tips. And on *both* my copies, his legs came apart at the knees and had to be superglued back together. I remember his aftermarket price inflated really quickly. My second one cost me like $60 and that was just like 6mo to a year after he first came out, and it’s only gone up since then.

[@roberttorquati5186]

Has nothing to do with why he is expensive

[@robdrabkowski2708]

Great review, Sir! Great haul too! I noticed that you got a Quake Blast in the trade. I have to say, it's one of the nicest 3rd party TFs that I own, much nicer than the official MP Shockwave. There are some issues you need to be aware of to avoid calamity, though. First, watch out when posing the shoulders, because some positions can actually damage the shoulder joints if you don't move them in a very specific way. Secondly, there is a design flaw in the arm cannon nozzle which will cause it to snap clean off the moment you connect the large alt mode gun barrel. It's best to remove the small clear nozzle from the wrist before attaching the large barrel. Mine came with an extra nozzle because of this issue but if you got this loose it's likely that all the extra little pack-in bits aren't there, so be careful! Otherwise, it's an amazing figure. That deep metallic purple paint is simply breathtaking, and the three led lights are piercingly bright.

[@BiomasterM2]

Man, now _this_ is a surprise to suddenly see pop-up. I can definitely understand why this guy would be a 'grail' class figure that you've been hunting for, as ever since I first got one back around when it first came out, Reveal the Shield Lugnut has remained my single favorite Transformers figure I've ever owned, so I'm honestly kinda glad you were able to finally get one for yourself. There's just something that's so… weirdly perfect about the way this mold came out, with how incredibly faithful it is to Lugnut as a character while _also_ having totally nailed re-imagining his original Animated design from the ground up to fit in with the more realistic esthetic of the Generations-style toylines of the time, having what is probably _still_ my favorite looking plane design out of any airplane based apt-mode Transformer, on top of also just having _so much_ articulation, interesting engineering, and raw massed packed into it despite only being a Voyager class figure, that to this day it's still the measuring stick that I compare new Transformer figures that I'm interested in getting to. Oh, and as a small little thing, while Lugnut doesn't really come with any extra accessories outside of the missile for the artillery cannon like you mentioned, something I always liked to do for displaying him or just when messing around with him in general was partially transform just the end of one his arms back into its plane configuration, since due to the way they went about designing his arms, the hand swirling back around to lock the wing-tip into place kind of gives it the appearance of having transformed into Bayverse-Optimus style armblade if it's done while still in robot mode (especially so if it's also extended outwards via the punching gimmick mechanism so teh forearm doesn't look like one solid chunk of wing), all without taking away any of the rest of the arm's articulation save for the finger joints.

[@baruscream7279]

Crazy coincidence, this guy has always been my grail as well. Had a good bunch of side jobs last year and finally saved enough money to buy it. Yeah, the $130 I spent packed a punch, but he was so worth it in the end. Lugnut, Powerdive, Lockdown, Mindwipe, Jetblade, Terradive, Hailstorm... ROTF, HFTD and RTS were full of unique and iconic designs, and the Decepticons definitely got the best treatment.. I hope HasTak revisit those characters given that Concept Art and Gamer Edition are a thing now.

[@primeoetgrunn]

Reminds me of how I got my RTS Lugnut back in 2011. He was hidden behind a few Strafes and Solar Storm Grappel and the only Lugnut on the shelf. Paid 15 EU for him back then, since that line was on discount for DotM to hit shelves around that time. It was the only and last time I saw an RTS Lugnut for myself. So glad I got him back then.

[@christadourian5343]

A b17 flying fortress like jet is the perfect vehicle mode for lugnut

[@cristiantiniguar-sevilla467]

Hehe. For my middle school graduation (I'm almost done with my junior year of highschool,) my dad gifted me not only RTS Lugnut, but also POTP Inferno, Elita 1, and Hun-Grr for $100 (American) as a bundle from an OfferUp seller. I knew this Lugnut was a well-loved item back then, but I didn't know he was considered "rare" when I got him. And yes, I opened up and played with all of them. Luggsy now stands with his fellow Decepticons to this day. My dad now says Lugnut is one of his favorites thanks to the alt mode.

[@Tazer_Silverscar]

The fact the gimmick doesn't screw up the transformation at all is really cool. I do wish I got it back when it was out, but fairly sure it wasn't around here in the UK >.>

I'm so happy to be one of the lucky few who found him at Ross. He's one of the crown jewels of my collection and I'm never letting him go. I still have the box. I use it to store Spychangers. It still has the $9.99 tag on it.

i have great memories if getting this guy from a discount shop called home bargains for £7, this was the last real transformer i ever bought before i stopped collecting, i have picked up maybe two or three G1 figures from carboot sales or conventions since then but never bought anything else. all of my transformers are packed away in the attic except a few, G1 springer, G1 rodimus prime, titanium g1 ultra magnus, rotf voyager mixmaster, rotf legends devastator.... and rts lugnut. lugnut was the perfect figure, amazing bomber mode, amazing robot mode, great articulation, he was the perfect way to end my transformers collection. the only figure i have desperately wanted since was the leader blackout, but due to being a poor uni student who had other hobbies and no shops around where i live stocking them at the time, i was never able to get blackout. maybe one day

[@sansgun]

I've had this toy in my closet for over 8 years, and only NOW do I learn how to properly transform it. When I was younger I only ended up transforming it half way, cuz I don't believe I ever read the instructions. If I were to guess why, I assume I got my copy at a thrift store, which was common for me. The transformation steps I didn't do were: 1. Flip the upper thighs around; so he stood tall and lanky. 2. Snap the torso into place; Because I guess I never noticed the 2 pegs on the torso. 3. Shift the thruster/wings section forward; because I didn't realize that was movable. 4. Compress the backpack; idk about others, but my copy's backpack was EXTREMELY tight and only went so far. I only attempted to push it in further after watching this video, and analyzing the mechanism. It took a LOT of force to get into it's proper place for both robot and plane mode. But after doing all those missed steps years later, I gained a whole new appreciation for this toy. It went from an unstable spaghetti, to a competent figure I thoroughly enjoy. Thank you, Mr. T. T. Guy for showing me just how cool this little wingnut is. (Also, you can flip the cockpit hatch down in robot mode to give him a funny, comically large hat)

[@coffeeinhandproductions3238]

Really nice find. RTS Lugnut, and HFTD Bludgeon were two figs that have eluded me to this very day as I really wanted both when then were on shelves, but Distribution was and still is a joke here, and I didn't have a credit card to buy them elsewhere. Funny thing about Lugnut is though he predates the Legacy line as a character update he almost fits in with what the line is doing now with animated, and Prime. While seeing Lugnut as an updated Leader would be great to really do this guy justice, at a proper scale he'd almost have to be Commander Class to be any good. SS Blackout already showed a large scale figure at a Leader price point doesn't exactly work as h feels cheap, light, and barely holds together.

If 14 years seem so many imagine still having the G1 toys you used to play with more than 35 years before! I am happy i still have them, at least most of them!

I think his scarcity is due to him being legit good toy, so collectors are keeping him. There's like TEN of these on ebay right now as I type this so somewhere the demand exceeded the supply. I got mine back when he was new and he is an amazing toy. I replaced the rub signs with dry rub symbols some years ago. I like the ones I added to his wings since I put them in a place that makes it look like he has Decepticon symbols tattooed on his hands XD Great poses in the video BTW. Really showcases hos advanced the design of this figure was that he can still hang on the shelves next to more modern toys. I somehow doubt a new Legacy figure will be as good as this is.

[@scarfazed]

dude. i remember seeing this in TJ max AND ross. they sold this guy for less than 20 dollars i think. my cousin bought the starscream (leader class) for me and optimus (leader class) himself for about 19.99 (ross) or 23.99 (tj max), not sure where he got them from but it literally started my toy collection journey. i remember these in the stores for like a year and nobody was buying any of these. i did catch the costo exclusive bumblebee with metallic finish and a mini bumblebee+mudflap in TJ max. after a few weeks, i ended up getting like 7 of them for 34.99 each. i kept 3 for myself (1 out of box, 2 still sealed), sold/gifted rest.

This figure is so good! I was super stoked when I found one at my local con for like $30-$40. This was before it randomly became super expensive for some reason. Awesome figure!

A straight re-release would be unlikely, but an update as a Voyager or Leader class for Legacy would be pretty cool - the only problenm then is that Hasbro likes to be able to do two or three repaints per mold, and who else are they going to get from this? Galaxy Force/TF: Cybertron Jetfire, maybe? Not a close match, but at least a similar kind of aircraft, with a new head and the right color scheme. The figures going for so dear on the secondary market is a big neon flag waving to say there's money to be made from the character if they offered one, at a minimum, just like 86 Grimlock getting a re-release next year.

I really hope we get a new toy of Lugnut. He deserves it!
