My inner geek is screaming to get out, so here it goes. The Albatross biplanes (of which Ransack is) is strictly WWI native. The Treaty of Paris forbade Germany from having Fighters of bombers in the Inter-war years.
Understand, I am not criticizing the review, my inner geek just refuses to stay inner. Love what you do. keep it up.
you're in high school? And you're trying to tell me, how has a degree in history what i do or don't know? Germany, in the early part of world war 2 STILL used biplanes as part of their aerial assault.
both of you have a point but in the begiing of wwII and i mean in the begining the germans did indeed use by planes but they where quickly replaced, but i just dont see it as a german plane the colors are off
Great review and all, but I just wanna point out: Those aren't missile's. Missile's fire out, rocket-propelled. Those are just plain and simple bombs, biplane's would unlatch them and let them fall. Pew.
he looks awsome a kid at walmart cried to get it and well i gave it up im not bad he wanted it i got mudflap but my bro suprised me with him and i was happy :)
No offense, Optibotimus, but I feel like I'm watching the "Like So" show every time I watch one of your reviews. I always chuckle when you say like so now.
Quick question though: How did you mod the head on Breakaway? I've seen a couple of different ways to do it. So how did you do it?
Only downside is that I have the european version, so the information on the back of the packaging is reduced to one sentence (in 12 different languages that is) and the stats are missing.
It looks quite nice. He also has a battle mode, wich I find quite nice. Altough it's not so very different from the normal robot mode, it's still a nice addition.
was a biplane in one of the photos that Simmons had, when Wheelie was showing them where to find the "Old" transformers? You could kind of make a case for that being this character. I know there was a MOdel T- looking car (Which would make an awesome figure)
Ransack's robot mode, much like the alt mode, does a good job of showing just how out-of-date he is compaired to more modern Decepticons. His face has kind of a Terminator thing going for it.
When did he show u[ in the movie? Was he just in one of the pictures that a certain former agent had?
they should make like a special edition group of ROTF toys and call them "the seekers". they all have old vehicles for alt modes and look old in robot mode.
yeah i think, he does have a terminator look going on his face. its kinda cool how they made it seem as if the engine or whatever that silver thing is, look like a hat.
i got him today and this is my second transformer form the revenge of the fallen line. do you recoment a other transformer that when i see it i need to buy it?
well...i don't think the army would have much to do with something the air force would deal with :P....But...i never said that the US still used biplanes....the GERMANS STILL DID in world war 2. Maybe you should get a education with the help of the us army
it's a sony handycam. Nothing too special...but i use pinnacle studio 12 to edit my videos...and i'm able to sharpen things and lighten them to clear things up
maybe he crashed into the museum of national history and thought to himself "oh maybe this bi-plane is for this era" , comes out and there are vehicles much more advanced than he is and goes "oh shazbutt"!
oh ok i get it i figerd that you wouldent check out old vid but i do love your revus thay have goten me into transformers agen i owned all thebeastwars but my fater thue them out so i stoped geeting them but your revews have goten me buying them agen so 4 that i thank you!!!!!!!
People are likely going to tell you this a lot but WW1 was the time of the Biplane not WW2 (they had new fighters like the Mustang, the plane not the car for those who don't know)
Great review!!! I wasn't sure when I first saw him but I just love biplanes. His robot mode is cool too cause it looks old and like it has been in lots of wars.
as i told someone else...but i'll be nicer with you :p In the early years of ww2 the germans still used biplanes. The Henschel Hs 123 saw service from '36 (just before the start of ww2) till '44 before it was retired
dude wheel-e is for ROTF i have seen hime in wallmart you open the cab and the stering wheel is how you change if his an autobot os desepticon u sead that his nose is big it is ackuly his mouth i have seen him in wally-whorld (walmart) plz exuse my spelling:( also plz do another reveuw 4 him because u did the last 1 wrong.
oh i obviously dont? In the early parts of ww2 germans still used biplanes. The Henschel Hs 123 was used during world war 2 and was the last biplane the germans used during the second world war. I have a history degree pal...i know my facts...
sorry 4 my last comment , it was rudely but u said biplanes were used prevalently in ww2 in your video and this transformer doesnt look to be a henschel hs 123.
Awesome review of a chracter myself am warming up to the more I see him. This guy does appear in the book. He is not named but it is him in description. I so hope he made it in the movie cause he as a great scene with Jetfire.
At the early part of world war 2 germans had the newest and best Me-109 fighters and Ju-89 dive-bombers and Ju-88 bombers. There was one biplane Ar-68, from 1939 used as night figter, from 1940 was used as a training plane. Factory was making it from 1936 to1938.
there is something about this figure i really like not sure what it is, he is weird looking, but cool as well. his alt mode looks great. its cool to see and older type vehicle form as a transformer. i think he might be my favorite scout. great review paul
uhmm... sorry to be an ass, but you are talking about a world war I plane. not ww2. Aerial combat , however, was greatly improved thanks to these fellas in ww2.
ya know...i get pissed off when people complain about the length of my videos. Everyone else takes 6-7 minutes transforming him one way...I TRANSFORM HIM BOTH WAYS...thus..longer videos...get over it
do you live near an air port?
