X Transbots Andras (Transformers 3rd Party Scourge)

[@PredaconKing-cn2xx]

*Frame **6:37** thru. Skully ~"Size wise, there's my slipper....And I wear an 11 1/2 wide ladies. Wife yells from Despondos, next to Count Marzo...."THE SIZE REALLY DOESN'T CORELATE LADIES". Saddened, Skully utters~ "Do you really want to hurt me?"...Do you really want to make me cry?? Dead.... LMFAO!!! You a fool Bobby. Love you brother. Salute!*

[@ThePenanceStare]

A while or not, its well worth a wait for a better product. Real curious to see what Fanstoys has been working on.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Krommdor i admire your patience

[@M_Alex]

I know it's been ages since you posted this, but I just wanted to say that I got my Andras today, and the way you transform the feet here really worked for me, thank!

[@MythsAndHeroes]

glad it helped

[@faintsmile88]

I salute you Mr Skullface, with your clear and precise guidance the foot transformation took me less than 5 minutes.....what was all the fuss about people!

[@MythsAndHeroes]

glad to help

[@eyescovered]

Love the Santa beard and the skit... Do you really want to make me cry? Thanks for the honest review. All the other reviewers went nuts for this guy, and overlooked some of its flaws. It does a lot right and it's a great figure, but like you always say: options! For me, I think I'll wait to see what Fans Toys does. I can wait. Great review!

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+eyescovered many thanks

[@chojinacd]

wow, the "foot-advice" just made my life 3 times easier!! thanks!! just got the sweep-set. chopped the starscream head off and curse looks great!

[@MythsAndHeroes]

glad to help

[@roosjen]

Never realized how funny you are when you are in a rant :) 'like a cokehead sneezed all over it', I laughed out loud at that!

[@elvisramon4749]

Glad you mentioned the coke spill. I was pissed when I started to transform the wings and saw all that stuff. Finally picked up all four that were made since fanstoys never came through.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

hahahahah

[@AD-316]

Great review thanks for being honest will wait for FansToys.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Easy Rex my pleasure thanks for watching

[@solomonwitt475]

I know this is an old video...but at 22:49 Bobby sounds like a foreman whos about to lose his shit!!! Love it! you are dead on thats how i talk to factories all the time..

[@johngavin1175]

About 5 yrs later,and no one else has done a Scourge,other than some legends figures. I wonder if the new version of Xtransbots Andras will be better than the old one.

[@Talisac80]

I think I read something about a swarmed set of these coming or something without rim fire and some differences to them.. but yea ft galvatron is put out to Sept 2016 already lol so 2017 before a ft scourge?!?!

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Talisac80 lol yea pass on the box set for sure lol

[@Talisac80]

lol. what puts me off the most is the price for him 150 plus for a scourge? nah

[@WalkingDeadpool78]

awesome review.. I'll wait for FT's

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+WalkingDeadpool78 dont blame you

[@micfox001]

WalkingDeadpool78 FT still has not even released a grey-scale graph for this character after one year since it is available..

[@bigbodyg35]

Still waiting lol.

[@notgray88]

still waiting... Hurry up FT I need a Scourge for my collection

[@kevingray1939]

gutted you had the issues with yours, maybe i got lucky cos mine is clean and has none of the paint chips, totally agree about the feet, both the transformation and getting them situated afterwards are probably my biggest gripe. all in all though im really pleased with him

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Kevin Gray that would be my luck

[@jackticon5843]

Hi bob thats the shoe i want lol the figure looks good cant wait for fanstoys take on this funny skit mister skullface,its friday!! Shattered cast day! Thx for review groeten

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+jackticon thanks for watching

[@Habakure_KJTB]

Mine has gaps in alt mode, but I still love his bot mode (I'm biased as Scourge is one of my favourites). Gotta love his flares, very 70's chic.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Kevin Byrne hahaha 70s chic nice!

[@i.still.function3463]

Lol When i saw the pic for the video i was thinking "Whats with that beard.?" and outta all ppl it happend to it had to be you! Well played sir,well played haha that made my day! Merry Thanks-o-ween to you and your family Skullface!

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+AnT Booth same to you and yours good sir

[@gallien]

just got mine. didn't have the qc issues you did but those feet!!! 30mins to get them through!

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+gallien yea theyre a pain.

[@YorSiri116]

Nice beardd....i think dx9 also gonna do scourge too since they will release galvatron soon

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Yor Sirimonga well, theres my three

[@AveryAccord]

i usually order from tfsource.com. I've had two major problems that they corrected swiftly. first one of the wings were missing from slingshot on my uranos. next my xtransbots Apollyon wrist was drilled slanted. It looked great in robot mode but that miniscule defect threw of the entire transformation. I just hit them up on Facebook.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Kenneth Jones thats awesome

[@DataSlam]

Mine had the darker blue ring piece around the neck stem that's affixed to the collar mis-assembled upside down so the lifting neck gimmick would not plunge all the way downward, which made his head stick up off his shoulders way too much. Looked ridiculous. Some frustrating diagnosis and delicate re-assembly fixed the problem but, come on, expensive toy to have such thoughtless QC issues.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+DataSlam ugh, sorry to hear that man

[@joshuateo4211]

just a little note: you can collapse Rimshot's barrel in, the one on his back. Thanks for another nice review. :) I'm looking forward to what Fanstoys will bring for this character, if certain silhouettes beside a recent not-Galvatron reveal can be trusted.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Joshua Teo good call and many thanks

[@alsundayperry]

Yeah Bobby S,mine looks like they box it in a salt factory,all in all a ok figure,not great but ok. Thanks for another true good review,you hit this 1 dead on.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+SUNDAYHEAT31 thanks for watching

[@prlostinshadows]

Bobby, I know this is an old video - but I only just got my Wrath/Bane set. The fricking foot!!!!! without this video I would have been completely screwed with the awful transformation. Thank you very much

[@rayneoftera]

Skullface....that white beard is why I love your reviews, not only do you tell it as it is but your sense of humor is second to none, brilliant, haha!!! A coke head sneezed all over this thing, hahahaha! Awesome review as usual!!

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+rayneoftera many thanks for the kind words

[@Protoinks]

Amazingly funny skit. The wife was watching it with me, and she died laughing over it. Great job. Good review as well. Sucks you got a beardless Sweep.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Bulkhide hahaha many thanks

[@toddmcdonald2450]

Did you ever get a proper beard? Rewatching this for transformation of the newly released T version

[@CobraLaLaLa77]

Awesome review again. But I'm going to wait for FT'S

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Lance Kienholz cant blame you

[@cdeuceriley4044]

Great review, sorry yours has all those QC issues, when I got mine I was like, it's solid, I will get two of these and one Fans Toy. But now I am nervous the next one has those QC issues. So probably do what you suggested, this one, Fans Toy, and whoever else throws their hat in. Thanks for the advice.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+cdeuce Riley thanks dude, yea ive heard rumors of DX9

[@brenoferreiraferreira4409]

I notice what you're saying about KFC/X-transbots just by watching you videos but I never had one in hand and until that happens (it's close now I just need customs clearance) I think their TF look good nothing else. Thanks for the review.

[@jazza1981]

Hahahah, I watched this months ago but came back for that excellent rant at the end...coke head sneeze comment gets me every time. :D

[@MythsAndHeroes]

Agent Shockwave lol

[@jfm424]

FYI - Just bought this and the feet are now fixed in the transformation. Was able to push them through no problem without having to re-jigger them like you had to.

[@jfm424]

That said, he can't hold the gun or the targetmaster in his right hand... *sigh*

[@jfm424]

Xtransbots...nuff said.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

lol well at least they got one thing sorted

[@frankmarzig1972]

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. for the figure hey, i think it looks great. sorry about that damn beard.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Frank Marzegliano same to you and yours!

[@CNFunnyJon]

Lol. Damn. XD Personally, to me. I would have said don't make me come over there! XD

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+CNFunnyJon lol

[@CNFunnyJon]

It's true! XD Chances are by the luck of the draw. She would say one more thing then run.

[@AcanLord]

is this a pre-production version or the final product?

[@MythsAndHeroes]

Final

[@AcanLord]

hmm. i see. i asked because i`m considering this guy, i just obtained DX9 tyrant and i love it though i feel like he needs his trusted lieutenants.

[@chrisgardner2052]

re-listening to shattered cast uncut episode 75 you stated that you would not be getting x-transbots cyclonus if scourge wasn't up to your standards, that being said, after watching your scott ian/Kerry King review, are you in for cyclonus?

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Chris Gardner havent decided, this figure isnt bad, theres just some issues. maybe if i catch a deal or something. we'll see

[@chestfullosixes5808]

Great review. I am thinking maybe the target masters should sacrifice some articulation or something... they look terrible lately.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+ChestfullOsixes maybe, idk, i mean i hear you, i do, and i agree, but at the same time ive been enjoying them lol

[@booksy1a]

i think ill wait on fans toys thanks for the heads up mac

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+booksy1a good call, mac

[@brantlisk786]

I can't get over the elbows. Same with their Megatron. The upper arms just disappear when bent. I doesn't look right. Good review as always. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!!

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Brant Lisk same to you and yours good sir

[@michaelbabich7448]

I appreciate your opinions I was about to order him just cause I got FT galvatron the other day and I couldn't agree with you more about his hands but anyway keep up the good work and thanks

[@MythsAndHeroes]

my pleasure, thanks for watching

[@dealerdestro5857]

It shouldn't look like a coke head sneezed all over it! LMAO! Thanks for saving me some $$$$$ and talking me off the ledge.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+DealerDestro thanks for watching

[@phoenixrichardson1261]

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family my friend.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Phoenix Richardson same to you and yours buddy

[@drewc9169]

Haha. Still waiting on FT Scourge.

[@8474Starscream]

Good review and Happy Thanksgiving to you and family. I like what I see here more than their Megatron release although Megs looks great in a stoic pose. Sweeps come in three. Its a good pickup to support Xtransbots as I see massive improvement moving forward so if we can help push the X folks into another category then so be it. Cyclonus looks badass and again there were more than one. Bottom line Fans Toys are a no brainer as well.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+David Lenshyn yea, but when is enough enough lol

[@rasmo0753]

This is one rare case where I am glad I am not basing a purchase choice on a reviewtuber (although I actually did have the figure before watching the review). Seeing your review would have made me think twice about passing this guy up, but as it was, like I said I actually had him in hand before you posted this vid, and I gotta say...I am sorry that apparently this time you just got unlucky and took one up the QC-hole. My fig had no problems at all (beard was full and intact :P). Finger joints were all tight, nothing was rattly, and even his feet were easier for me than I have seen in most reviews (although I DO have some crazy nintendo muscles). He didnt even come fully equipped with that extra layer of powder from napping between a coke whore's bewbs, and the "Fracas" figure was actually kinda tight and held together relatively well (in terms across the board from all the head/weapon/powercore masters we have seen. I actually LOVE this version for Scourge, and wouldnt mind if one of the infamous "3rd-er" parties made an optional kit for him to go all "melty mode" when you stick the matrix in his chest. Sorry you got one of the shouldnt-have-passed-QC pieces of the run, man.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Rasmo 07 hahaha, Nintendo muscles, that's awesome, and its all good man, the truth is, like I always say: if you like him, you win! I'm glad to hear yours was good to go.

[@DoraKage]

Ok your luchador mask and the jokes with the Mrs... yeah im subscribing.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

Welcome!!!

[@TabbyTimeOut]

Thanks for your tip on the feet. Couldn't have gotten those transformed without you. Now I can do it no problem. My main problem with this figure is the fingers. Those joints are too tiny and delicate. Bad design Shame. Other than that I really like the look of these guys.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

my pleasure

[@Transformadoo]

I just made up my mind, thanks for the review, and your honesty .

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Tran Sformado thanks for watching dude

[@4sakend1]

LOL! That skit! Anyway i think you are entitled in your rage, those were easy fix QC Issues that should have been done,

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+James Ramirez lol many thanks

[@theinconvenienttruthallen4498]

A Coke head sneezed all over this thing! Lol😂

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Darrian Allen lol

[@yellowgut]

Lmao! I'd probably return it, beard, neck, and dirty, looks to me like you got a lemon. They can't all have this many issues. But I really like the look of this figure.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+yellowgut that would be my luck

[@THEWATCHERISLOOKING]

Still waiting for the Fanstoys version.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

me too

[@CNFunnyJon]

Holy! That transformer got a manicure! XD

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+CNFunnyJon hahahaha

[@CNFunnyJon]

Well, tell me. There is noooo way. In the series, they let this dude have those kinds of fingers. XD Next, Megatron will have a face mask and hair curled up. XD

[@jakobwilcyn7437]

Well his enemies have nothing to worry about. He would never be able finish his transformation due to his feet. So unless he is versatile on knee combat, he is pretty much screwed. Not to mention he would never make it to the battle considering everything that fell off of him before transformation.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+John Byrd hahahaha "knee combat"

[@poloskier1967]

Mrs skullface is a savage for that comment😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+poloskier1967 right?!?!?!

[@Tombstonecross]

Nice review, hope FT`s version has a better quality

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Tombstonecross you and me both

[@Cyril29a]

Five years and we still don't have a fanstoys version.

[@gman6862]

Released !😂

[@VRHyoumaru]

You just know somebody's gonna buy at least 4, 5 or even 6 of this guy, always struck me as weird there was literally no difference between Scourge and the Sweeps. I mean sure there's Seekers, but at least they're different colors.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+VRHyoumaru lol, true

[@shockwave514]

Thanks for the review, this guy looks great but with all the qc issues he has I will pass, this the 3rd X-Transbots figure that I have been dissapointed in and maybe this company is not for me, thanks for the truthful review again. :)

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+shockwave514 my pleasure

[@AdriaCalais]

I'm sorry you can't enjoy the poseable hands. I have way too much fun with mine...

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+DrewsiferXXX hahaha nice twitter war mac

[@nujevad28]

Since he's such a shellformer, couldn't they give him more articulation to make up for it? An ab crunch + better wing poseability could've made this guy look fearsome.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+nujevad28 an ab crunch would have been nice

[@MultiJamesman]

I ordered this because another reviewer somewhat upsold it, which I am sort of regretting now. I suspect that Peeugh glossed over the faults of another free thing he got from TFsource, which he then scraped and ground into his desk.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+MultiJamesman I can't comment on his situation, but while I think this is the best thing xtb has made, its certainly not great... yet

[@jettshutter9906]

I got this guy and I love him, but god damn those fucking feet, and tabbing/untabbing the wing teeth just doesn't feel cozy with me. But to be honest, who ever displays scourge in space-soap-shoe-whatever it is mode. Also when I opened mine he was missing a blue spike from one of the lights, but it some how it ended up inside his chest compartment. Those feet.... I feel like my thumbs will bleed near every time I try and transform them.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

Jett Shutter hahahaha I hear you

[@Neopiate13]

I bet that if the fanstoys scourge comes in a limited 3-pack you chuck this guy out of a moving car. I felt the rage near the end and i'm surprised you didn't rip this company a new ________ over it. If i had seen your Apollyon review before i bought the damn thing i wouldn't have bothered with that either. I'm flat out done with KFC/x-transbots. It doesn't matter if they are first to market with something in the scale you like, if it sucks. Hopefully fans toys reflector washes the taste of this guy out.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Neopiate13 lol youre probably right

[@jaraxel888]

LOL, classic on the shoe size and skid. Am I weird for liking the target master more than the bot (and getting it for that reason)? There's a lot of anger at the end which I definitely can understand. It seems you had a much worse experience than other reviewers (I wont get mine for months... so will know for myself then) though I really wish they did much better with at least the light up pieces (that's consistently falling off in all copies... wtf is with that?!). IMO you're right, they got too excited and let the QC go, very unfortunate.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Jaraxel many thanks, and im with you on the target master

[@gilasilverman5566]

3 sweeps that's the way to go. It doesn't matter what it is, I always get at least 3 infentry minimum.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Gila Silverman yea 3 is good

[@gilasilverman5566]

I got two of the titanium scourges back in the day. My plan was to get classics/generations scourge when ever they made one and make him my official scourge. But instead I found this deal and got the Henki scourge instead. And that was my three. But a few years later I was looking for a cyclones on eBay..the guy was selling one with three of his own generations scourges. Now I have like six scourge type figures. But yeah..normally it doesent matter what I go for..it's usually three henchmen etc. Bobby Skullface L

[@SonicBoom12345]

Lol....That Beard!

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Sonic Boom! lol

[@RCCrawlerz209]

Sooo they made Scourge, would only be logical if/when they make the Sweeps like what happened in G1. 😎

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Smoke screen they have a box set of three coming with minor retools and no target masters

[@RCCrawlerz209]

Awesome! :) Still, idk what is up with this "target master" deal 3rd parties are doing all of the sudden...just seems a bit odd to me.

[@DoraKage]

Wait... X-transbots are not legit Transformers merch are they? sorry noob question

[@MythsAndHeroes]

Nope. They're unlicensed products. Original designs but not sanctioned by the official license holders.

[@aaronmauer7225]

is KFC and xtransbot the same company?

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Aaron Mauer yes

[@aaronmauer7225]

why the 2 names?

[@MythsAndHeroes]

im not sure, there are a number of companies that operate under multiple company names though

[@whyisgamora3721]

Nearly 3 years later.... still nothing from FT.

[@notgray88]

Yeah wtf Fanstoys. Nobody wants another Blurr give us Scourge already

[@Jaco534]

TRUTH! Bro I hear you on that rant.........Ill pass on this.......

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Jaco534 cant blame you

[@EmilyTempest81]

What did your wife say about the size. I didn't catch it.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

i cant remember off hand

[@Ralphenator1]

If MP's didn't have individually articulated fingers, then how would you have them flipping off other transformers? I thought that was the quintessential pose. It's interesting how so many of the people on the boards were saying that this thing was perfect, but then they admitted to things like the blue pieces falling out. I'm not saying that this thing is bad, but I think people need to look up the definition of "perfect" in the dictionary. I'm really tired of the hyperbole people put out there. Andras definitely looks like an upgrade to Apollyon. I hope FT shows their version soon. With the movie bots, I can be patient and wait.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Ralphenator1 yea, i think hes getting a lot of praise bc hes the best thing xtb has done, but they still have a bit further to go in my opinion

[@MrCable75]

i'm steering clear of this Santa Scourge like its got Herpes lol. i'll wait 5 years for Fans Toys mate.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+MrCable75 lol

[@notgray88]

Sadly it looks like we're all still waiting. HURRY UP FT

[@Gree187]

Yeah ! If your gonna make a figure , make it look good ! An not like some Coke head sneezed all over it ! Lmfao ! Love it !

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+HAWKSFAN79 lol, many thanks

[@kjsmith999]

I just picked this guy up... But man i wish i watched your review first because i contacted the guy i bought it from to ask if it was used due to all the fucking dust.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

KJ Smith lol!

[@jarison2008]

always looking forward for your review on KFC/X-trans before any purchased, thanks. btw, your wife, she is even more honest than you, lol, jk.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

I bet he only feels like a half of a man with just that mustache. Sucks you got it that way. Great review as always man. :) Hail SCU!!! Hail Hasbro!!! :) Get some sleep...

Always bet on Fanstoys.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Steve Fillion amen

[@jazza1981]

Thanks for the review. I'm sure I've read/heard somewhere that you actually pay for these yourself, right? If so, that's a pretty tremendous sacrifice and in my mind gives you way more credibility than some other reviewers. I won't be wasting my time on this - frankly the missing beard and paint scrapes are overly concerning on something that can basically be considered a random sample.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Jared Agent yea, every now and then viewers will send me something to take a look at, but the overwhelming majority is stuff i buy

[@Ramjet383]

Sucks about the beard. Your luck is like mine.. One out of a thousand missing the beard and that one ships to you..

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Ramjet383 exactly

FFFFEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTTT

[@MythsAndHeroes]

HahahahahahaHahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

[@macrick]

This pc's finishing is really not up to the standards. This is supposed to be a masterpiece, final finishing touches should be there. This pc is like buying a car without seat belts. In addition, I watched a couple of reviews on 3rd party combiners. They all try to be everything but in the end. It's a god damn mess. Excessive parts forming, (Esp Fansproject's Menasor)or some other QC issues. My money ain't going to Andras nor any 3rd party combiners. Simply not worth the price.

[@MythsAndHeroes]

+Alex im with you except for the combiners. warborton bruticus and feral rex are two of my favorite pieces in my collection

[@macrick]

Bobby Skullface L Fair enough, those were the exceptions.

[@oliviadelosangeles2102]
