Nearly 14 minutes of a bunch of uummm uhhhh buuuts. Edited out the transformation but none of the droning on. Sounds logical. How about showing the face in a clear still shot? Why not show the screw/pile driver looking pieces? Hand articulation? All that video and I barely know any more than I went in with. If we're calling these things video reviews, review the toys. Just calling it like I see it.

You know the guy took time out of his day to film that review just so everyone could see it. He clearly explained why he didn't transform on camera. Maybe a little gratitude is in order instead of unnecessary cynicism? Besides, it's not like "IN ORDER TO BE AN OFFICIAL REVIEWER THIS MUST BE IN THE VIDEO" just calling it like I see it too.

Maybe he could have taken a few more minutes to figure out the figures better and transform them. Maybe he could have take even a few more minutes and edit this into something that doesn't remind me of middle school girls attempting conversation. Gratitude for what? I literally know one detail more from that video than I already did. I'm a cynic because this video is bad and could be much better. You want a decent review? Here you go. http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transform ... ost7614268 That video is a guy repeating his opinion on two figures he hardly explores in the video.

Flux Convoy is a steaming pile of slag. Just 'calling it as I see it'.

Can anyone who finally gets set B (Still waiting on mine from tfsource) tell me whether Hook has a problem with all his wheels touching the floor and rolling freely? I feel thats a pretty big annoyance and could be fixed with some adjustment to all the overall pieces in alt. mode. Thanks.
