Transformers DOTM Skywarp & Thundercracker

[tfhud]

Hasbro may release skywarp but I am sticking with this one. I wish they make the cone heads.

[fxfranz]

@tfhud

cool

[mrbilra]

It would be supercool if you could do a macross gerwalk mode with these transformers.

[fxfranz]

@mrbilra

maybe

[julian25051998]

@fxfranz

They are just GREAT!!!!!!! i just hope they make a ramjet repaint

[fxfranz]

@julian25051998

yup

[sunflower2362]

you know you done this video on thanksgiving right

[fxfranz]

@sunflower2362

yup;

but we don't have Thanksgiving holiday here in Manila. our biggest holiday is Christmas and New Year

[sunflower2362]

@fxfranz aww how sad

[fxfranz]

@sunflower2362

no, not at all. Christmas is the best holiday in my opinion.

[sunflower2362]

@fxfranz me too but ah do you eat turkey on christmas

[fxfranz]

@sunflower2362

sure.

but my mom makes turkey several times a year.  Christmas, New Year, Easter, and for certain special occasions like graduation, milestone birthdays, etc.

[sunflower2362]

@fxfranz oh ok

[PiperMMMMMMMMMM]

Skywarp is the best of this 3 Seekers

[fxfranz]

@PiperMMMMMMMMMM

yup

[transirocar]

who would u prefer starscream or thundercracker

[fxfranz]

@transirocar

TC

[eyongrobotreplica1]

When Optibotimus replies to a certain comment, its always a dick response from him, peaugh and fxfranz rule. Im gonna go and get starscream

[DarkNep]

@eyongrobotreplica1

Ya, and if you notice, fxfranz actually replies to just about every comment on all his videos. Plus no offense but he doesn't review TF toys with a monotone like personality, unlike Peaugh. That's why I always look foward to his reviews more!

[eyongrobotreplica1]

@DarkNep True story, I'm more of fxfranz fan :)

[fxfranz]

@eyongrobotreplica1

thanks :-)

[fxfranz]

@DarkNep

hey, thanks :-) man

[fxfranz]

@eyongrobotreplica1

well said

[eyongrobotreplica1]

I just got TC! sayang walang starscream at least sa pinuntahan ko, oh well i will find him soon. Sayang talaga si skywarp. Hasbro is losing alot of easy money on skywarp. Awesome review, sulit ang 350.

[fxfranz]

@eyongrobotreplica1

madaming starscream sa TK Mega

[brickarms666]

i accually like the starscream and thundercracker deluxe figures for the dotm line.

the thundercracker has exellant g1 details on it plus the starscream has great details for his alien tatoo stuff or what ever he has all over his jet mode.

[fxfranz]

@brickarms666

cool

[ImprovedFred]

The cheapest one I could fins was on Ebay for 30 bucks (that's included shipping.) Is that a good deal for this figure?

[fxfranz]

@ImprovedFred

that's about the same price i paid for this one, maybe i paid a little bit more.

[Knotje]

@ FxFranz : for easier transformation to jet mode : keep the shoulders vertical and rotate them inwards, in order to swing the clavicles inwards without them getting stuck. Also, the arms DO tab in ; the plastic nubs of his wrists are supposed to tab into the rectangular depressions of his abdominal frame.

[fxfranz]

@Knotje

cool,

right! sorry i missed that

thanks :-)

[deejay0129]

with the recent mark down on deluxe class prices at toys r us stores here in manila, i got myself a thundercracker and a starscream.. however when i went to greenhills to look for a skywarp, it was so expensive! is php 2400 just right for skywarp or are there other places where i can get them cheaper? thanks for your help! :)

[fxfranz]

@deejay0129

Skywarp is a Japan exclusive figure by TakaraTomy. that's why it's so expensive.

i was tempted to get a couple more DOTM deluxes as well, but i think i'll wait til the price goes down to p350. i still don't have the twins. i think they'll be the last to go, anyway and will still be covered by a second price mark down. how do i know? that's what they did with the HFTD deluxes--went down to 500, a couple months later, down again to 350.

[deejay0129]

@fxfranz

thanks bro, I'll keep that in mind!

[trence5]

the jet mode is beautiful - but I am not fond of movie Seekers...... They look like Waspinator with chicken legs

[fxfranz]

@trence5

cool

[BigDaddyEarl]

The cards are the Takara version of the Galactic Battle Game cards collect them and play....

[fxfranz]

@BigDaddyEarl

ahh, i see. thanks, Earl :-)

[luzyxify]

I really want that Skywarp.....so bad

[fxfranz]

@luzyxify

cool

[holsson85]

Man I'm way overdue for a new movie Starscream mold, I still only have -07 Starscream...

Anyway great review I'll be looking for these now!

[fxfranz]

@holsson85

thanks :-)

[TheArbiterand117]

sky warp is out??? i'll get it now!! i live in tokyo so ..

[fxfranz]

@TheArbiterand117

i live in Manila

[tranz7272]

AWESOME!!! AWESOME REVIEW!!! I hope to get Skywarp soon soon. I have Thundercracker and Starscreem. Does rtoys have website so i can order him as an import ?

[fxfranz]

@tranz7272

thanks :-)

cool

[Thomasthefan101]

hey how much did u pay for skywarp

[Zudon99]

Yeah Skywarp is the best of the three.. But this is one of the best molds in movie transformers. I have the regular DOTM Deluxe Starscream and liking him a lot :)

Great review man!! Keep up the good work! :D

[fxfranz]

@Zudon99

yup

definitely

cool

thanks :-) man

[fxfranz]

@BlueGunLaser

cool

[fxfranz]

@arkmagnus

thanks :-)

[Megathrone2559]

its funny how u scream in 7:46 lol.no offence

[fxfranz]

@Megathrone2559

LOL ;-)

[FPrimusUnicron]

ok, to form the "one bladed" sword and the "rifle2 just plug the mechtehc using only the "square" ports and rotated 90 degrees, now its just matter of plugging it in either forearm, believe me, it looks awesome and adds two more forms to the weapon making it one of the best mechtech, just one recomendation, rotate it in a direction the other gun(the not mechtech-ed one) in the way of the blade gimmick, if you still want to use it in this configurations

so... enjoy

[fxfranz]

@FPrimusUnicron

cool, thanks :-)

[eyongrobotreplica1]

Awesome review! I wish hasbro would also release skywarp, btw how much did you spent on skywarp?

[fxfranz]

@eyongrobotreplica1

thanks :-)

medyo mahal

[jordondykstra]

i noticed something is that an autobot logo on his sholder on the box art??

[jordondykstra]

@jordondykstra on Thundercrackers box

[TheMrmaster21]

@jordondykstra

no, its just the sticker that kind of makes it look like an autobot symbol

[jordondykstra]

@TheMrmaster21 oh hah oops.. i also looked at one at a store to see if i was going crazy XD

[TheMrmaster21]

@jordondykstra

lol its actually kinda weird how on the box art, the decepticon symbol is a stick, but on the toy, its actual paint

[jordondykstra]

@TheMrmaster21 wow that is weird..XD i wonder why they did that?



[TheMrmaster21]

@jordondykstra

oops, i mean "sticker" instead of "stick"

[SaxoRocks]

@jordondykstra Yah I see it too! Weird :/

[jordondykstra]

@SaxoRocks Glad you see it too, I thought I was goin insane!!

[fxfranz]

@jordondykstra

i don't think so

[jordondykstra]

@fxfranz ok?



[starscream7755]

if i got this in japan would the text be in Japanese or English?

[fxfranz]

@starscream7755

same as you see here, since R-Toys, the local hobby shop i got it from, imported this one directly from Japan

[ltranc]

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!!!!!!!

[MsRunions]

@ltranc sorry but your a bit late thanksgiving was 2 months ago

[fxfranz]

@ltranc

thanks :-) same to you

[MacDoom619]

your 1 fan here

great review!

:-)

[fxfranz]

@MacDoom619

thanks :-) man

[primeman454]

cool now they should make a sunstorm or maybe a ramjet

[fxfranz]

@primeman454

yes !!!

[ballworth]

maybe hasbro should rename thundercracker into nutcracker with that buzz saw.

[fxfranz]

@ballworth

yeah LOL ;-)

[redblast246]

They should make a G1 repaint of Starscream then you have a complete set of DOTM G1 Seekers

[fxfranz]

@redblast246

yes, definitely

[laenctras]

I think the chainsaw was pretty smart move of hasbro. Just swivel TC's chainsaw gun to the left(of the wings, and it can extend) Hope this helps.

[fxfranz]

@laenctras

really?

i think i show off that move in the video. try and watch a little bit more of the video

[Vdecepticon]

Sweet review man. I hate you for having skywarp :P

[fxfranz]

@Vdecepticon

thanks :-)

LOL :-)

[Vdecepticon]

@fxfranz No problem my bro. I hope you stop by my way some time. :)

[Segaman19]

Great review, mate. I take it that Skywarp is the Takara-release of Thundercracker? Also, shame about the saw-weapon's lack of posability in alt-mode.

[fxfranz]

@Segaman19

thanks :-) mate

cool

i suppose so.

yeah, hasbro dropped the ball on this one.

[juliusfgl]

i really like this guys! i allerady got starscream and thundercraker....skywarp its a litle too expensive here on mexico, but if it doesnt come in teh movie trilogy line, i iwll get him anyway! as you say, the tree amigos cant be separated!!!!!

cool review...as always man! ;)

[fxfranz]

@juliusfgl

cool

yup

thanks :-) man

[Darkscreamer785]

Not really a fan of the mold, but they do look very nice all together.

[SpidermanWebofTransf]

@Darkscreamer785 ok

[fxfranz]

@Darkscreamer785

cool

[SpidermanWebofTransf]

should i get deluxe thundercracker ??!!!

[AwesomeJohn22]

@SpidermanWebofTransf i got him, and i love him, so i'd say yeah. its good to have a good looking movie thundercracker.

[fxfranz]

@SpidermanWebofTransf

[SpidermanWebofTransf]

@fxfranz yes, like him

[SpidermanWebofTransf]

@SpidermanWebofTransf i like him, looks really cool

[SpidermanWebofTransf]

@fxfranz he looks cool

[mightybeanz01]

[uberkewl19]

Happy Thanksgiving! Hope everything is well with you. Don't forget to eat ALL that you can its only once a year. lol

[fxfranz]

@uberkewl19

thanks :-) bro, hope you guys had a good one, too

[takadox80]

I have them both AND starscream, but I display SW and TC more up front, cose I LOVE THEM! no boring grey plastic, silver black, purple and blue, red and silver, nothing can go wrong there!

[fxfranz]

@takadox80

cool

[Mecha82]

Its a good thing that they have unique heads so those are not direct repaints of deluxe DotM Starscream.

[jlogano20]

@Mecha82 no they still are the same they just look diff 

[BioformerCorviz]

@Mecha82 the heads look pretty much identical except for the paint and plastic color

[fxfranz]

@Mecha82

they actually are direct repaints

[ultimatemarvelanddc]

Nice review.

[fxfranz]

@ultimatemarvelanddc

thanks :-)

[SandDeath24]

[fxfranz]

[iDeLaGhetto]

[fxfranz]

@iDeLaGhetto

[tranzore14]

and btw nice review

[fxfranz]

@tranzore14

LOL :-)

thanks :-)

[dismantle123]

metallic poop. lol. thats what transformers excrete. nice seeker set. too bad i will not be completing mine since i cant afford takara imports.

[fxfranz]

@dismantle123

yeah LOL :-)

yup

ok.

[allycliftonsucks]

Human Alliance figures have the cards too and will you be getting DOTM Takara Vortex ? and i dont really like how TC and SW's heads look toooo similar except for the eye color

[fxfranz]

@allycliftonsucks

right, thanks :-)

probably not.

i'm ok with them

[DarkNep]

I just don't understand why Skywarp and Thundercracker couldn't make it in the movie. And I thought Skywarp was just a Japan exclusive? Is he priced the same?

[fxfranz]

@DarkNep

yeah, me too.

he's a japan exclusive. i picked this guy up at a local hobby store that imported it from Japan

[DarkNep]

@fxfranz

How much more expensive is he than a regular Deluxe?
