Transformers ROTF Scout Dead End

[fxfranz]

@legorooster

cool

[Anthrogynous]

Scouts cost 7 friggin dollars at Target, and 9 at Freddy's. Which is the reason Fred's sucks.

[fxfranz]

@Anthrogynous

wow! really?

[machoman5645]

i have this one :D

[fxfranz]

@machoman5645

cool

[oturansformer]

I agree with you man, my dead end is like yours too

[fxfranz]

@oturansformer

cool

[JunkyardCrap]

Cool figure for a common car-ish design! Have you heard about 'Decepticon Ransack'? It's a Bi-plane and it's fiddly as hell!

[fxfranz]

@JunkyardCrap

yup. check out my review of Ransack on my channel

[SamD465]

Hes just a red Nightbeat, but i like Nightbeats colours better.

[fxfranz]

yup, or perhaps, Nightbeat is a blue Detour/Dead End since the red version came out first

[ns02136]

its your model of this figure the soose and tight on goints

[fxfranz]

i guess

[zorotekz]

cool ninja pose to dead end

[fxfranz]

thanks

[ultratron562]

are you going to get the g1 inspired wheelie repaint

[fxfranz]

i'll decide when i see it on retail shelves

[migodrift]

Dead End is nicer when he is an Audi R8 like Sideways

[fxfranz]

yup

[gizi37]

before putting the "hood" down, put in the shoudlers.

Then,put your thumb in the C concave and index finger on th eother side.

bent it down into th eshoulders (not tabbed in, its below the tab and the 2 things are facing foward, then push them down......

[fxfranz]

right, thanks

[ultratron562]

his repaint is nightbeat

[fxfranz]

yup

[sammyb106]

scouts are £5 in england also deluxe £12

[fxfranz]

it's more expensive out there

[eagc7]

Scout cost around 100 bucks where i lvie >:(

[fxfranz]

really? wow

[eagc7]

legneds cost 50

scout cost 100

deluxe cost 150 (sometiemes 158)

voyanger cost 300

HA Line cost 400

Leader Cost 600

thats the price of TF toys on where i live

[fxfranz]

really?  what currency is this?

[eagc7]

currency?

[gizi37]

peso, euro, dollar, US dollar (there slihgty different), yen (i think).....£, $ are some signs.....

[heretotelloffdumbppl]

the microscope and the briefcase and megatron scout and legend class too

[zygas25]

hey ther is gonna be a deluxe version of this guy and that one is a retool of sideways

[fxfranz]

yup. it's out in most parts of the world. i'm sure it'll be out in your neck of the woods as well soon

[thenames9]

Chef frankie...$13 (£8) is the regular price. Your lucky to get your deluxe's at $14. The UK sucks for price and everything else.. as we don't even have wave 2 of ROTF yet =(

[fxfranz]

yeah, i'm actually surprised the importer has kept the deluxes at $14. and the leaders at $63 (same as last year) because based on the current inflation of the prices of toys and our exchange rate, out here, the deluxes should already be at $20.25 and the leaders at $71. but hey, who's complaining right :-) perhaps try ordering the must-have TFs on your list at hasbrotoyshop(dot)com, they have good rates out there, just be prepared to pay for shipping.

[thenames9]

If the price in Manila went up to that price it would be the same as the UK, and I asked Hasbrotoyshop if they would ship to UK but they said they wouldn't =(

[fxfranz]

really? that sucks. amazon then

[zallamh]

Your right this guy is a bitch to Transform!

[fxfranz]

hell yeah!

[AWstudios217]

did you wash him before nail polishing him!?

[fxfranz]

nope

the joints were pretty clean and i think too smooth and glossy that the nail polish just slides of when it hardens

[AWstudios217]

ahhh... i think detour is a better name cuz dead end is being used for the sideways repaint !

[fxfranz]

i know, i really thought the final box would say detour. apparently the european release is detour while the US is dead end for this guy

[danimus79]

nice review,i have seen the movie her in japan and its super awesome!!! Optimus Prime is so Badass!!!

[fxfranz]

thanks

can't wait to watch it

[eyongrobotreplica]

hey franz parand di ako sanay na walng mga parts ung reveiws mo. anyway gnda lht ng review mo sa rotf. hope you review leader prme

[fxfranz]

masyado daw mahaba mga reviews ko, kaya inigsian ko na lang. pinag-iisipan ko pa kung bibili ako ng Leader OP. Out of stock din sya palagi (kahit P3k sya ha) tulad ni Swipe

[eyongrobotreplica]

yeah havent seen op in stores mas mganda un mas movie accurate ung first movie ata kse parang ang taba..hehehe hoping for that review

[fxfranz]

we'll see. i'll do a review if i get him now. otherwise, we'll have to wait till clearance in 18 months

[eyongrobotreplica]

wow tgal pah bgo mgclearance lol sana 1k ulit ang mga leadr class

[fxfranz]

sana

[Kamentoyreviewer]

one of the stuncticons

[fxfranz]

perhaps

[flashboy95]

nice review

i just got him today

all the joint all super super ...tight..

except for the elbow and wrist

he is cool

if u wana put nail polish or superglue on ur figure joint

can u post a video of it?

i nvr try that be4

just wana fix my tfa soundwave1

[fxfranz]

thanks. yeah those 2 joints are horrible. it's useless putting anything on those joints.

it's easy, just remove the piece from the joint. then brush a thin layer of clear nail polish on the entire ball of the joint. let dry for a few hours then re-attach the limb to the joint

[rampagerumble]

uh, i dont think he is a type of car, just something hasbro came up with, coz hes kinda unrealistic

[fxfranz]

yeah, it looks very "cartooney"

[fxfranz]

cool

[fxfranz]

cool

[fxfranz]

really? hmm... will try it out on the next loose jointed figure i get

[longrack]

another transformer from ROTF thats hard/confusing to transform! Awsome review!

[fxfranz]

thanks

[andoy1504]

i also tried nail polish on some of my other figures but it rubs off. now i just insert/sandwich a small piece of paper in between the balljoints and all is ok.

[fxfranz]

cool

[x2k]

I was planning on getting this but he was 649 PESOS at RP!!!! WTF??? That's $13!!! A dollar more and you could buy deluxes!!!!

[x2k]

Just had to get that off of my chest, lol, great review man. I bought dirt boss though, and he's cool, too. You might wanna check him out, y'know, after you buy every other size class first.

[fxfranz]

no prob

thanks,

not too impressed with the dirt boss figure. perhaps on clearance

[fxfranz]

yup, i know :-(

[transformersguy21]

dude your the best

[fxfranz]

thanks :-)

[Aruthy]

great review picked this guy up for 6.97 cad and he is totaly awsome

[fxfranz]

thanks

that's a great deal for this figure

[Aruthy]

ye man usually there 10 canadian =/ and in some stores 13 =O. Luckily when TRU had the ROTF scout and deluxe sale i bought most of them.

[zversus]

sorry...now that i think about it the transformation kind of reminds me of activators bb but as for the make...its probably an unlicensed lotus elise or something...definitely european

[fxfranz]

yeah, i had trouble looking for the make of his car mode

[coonboy4ever]

i got ransack for $7.99, he is not a real car i think

[zversus]

ive seen that repaint and they shouldve totally named this guy detour...regardless i still like this guy and i might actually pick him up

[fxfranz]

cool

i was thinking of getting the blue repaint as well, but with the ridiculous price, i might just wait for it on clearance

[transformerskid2]

scouts are 8 buck in the US and deluxes are 12 bucks in the US

[fxfranz]

you guys are soooo lucky

[sonikdude49]
