The thing is, Autobot_032 (sorry if I misspelled your screenname), I watch reviews of figures to find out about....the figures.... so forgive those of us who would rather forgo what we see as reviews more about Vangelus' personality and general goofiness than they are about the toys. Peaugh and Optibotimus can be funny, but their reviews are not all about them, with a toy as an added bonus.

Psst. He's from the UK. It was sarcasm.

I generally speaking don't get more than 1 version of the same character (although I am beginning to change that outlook), so Slug will probably be my main incarnation of Slag, or at least until that third-party FOC figure comes out; if the Not-Swoop (which I really need to get) was anything to go by, it should be great.
Scorn looks like a great character in his own right. If my customizing skills were up to scratch I'd buy a few and paint one up in Energon Cruellock colours.
Also, I'm not getting the Vangelus hate. Peaugh gives very thorough, in-depth reviews, but they seem a bit too clinical and dull for my liking. Optibotimus does good reviews too, and I've found does a great job with comparisons and making up my mind what to buy, but I find he waffles on and reiterates the same points over and over a it too much. Vangelus is unique in that he manages to make his reviews genuinely entertaining whilst still remaining informative, and also gets a point across without an hour-long review. Generally speaking I'll only watch Peaugh and Optibotimus reviews to get an idea of how good a figure is, whereas I tend to watch Vangelus reviews over and over for the heck of it. I dunno, i like his goofiness. You can't be dead serious about everything after all.

I agree with pretty much all of this. I used to watch a lot of Optibotimus reviews but his fixed style and yes, actual repetition actually really does sometimes actually kinda get to me sometimes kinda. I've never been a huge fan of Peaugh's reviews, I just don't often find them that entertaining. I do find them informative though and will usually check both those guys and Baltmatrix if I'm interested in getting a bot. Especially if it's a pricey 3rd party item. I've watched a bunch of Vangelus reviews for stuff I've had no interest in at all because he's entertaining, and sure, maybe not as straight "step-by-step" as some others, but he clearly has passion for what he's reviewing and will give honest opinions.
I watch Thew's Reviews because he's the best. Seriously, can we start a kickstarter to fund him reviewing full-time?

The review is what it is to whoever watches it. To some it's good, to others it's not. Your style is successful depending on if it can fit well with your viewers. I'll never apologize for my style. I do repeat things often. I know that, but it's simply just me talking. I don't script things such as Vangelus does. I give him credit for that. But i like talking on camera as if i'm talking to someone in person. That's my style. It's also something i take pride in when someone comes up to me at a convention, talks to me and says that it's cool that i sound just like i do in my videos. I also know that i say several things, like words, often in videos. That comes with me not scripting things. It's not my style. I apologize for that. But there are a ton of reviewers out there. So if you don't like one persons style, you have a lot of other options. Sometimes you have to wait longer to see a review on a particular figure by the reviewer you prefer. But that's just the nature of things. That being said, i'm always grateful for the support that i've gotten over the years. Both from viewers, community members and sites like Seibertron. There are always bad apples in the bunch, but i try not to let those that are few and far between ruin it for everything as a whole. So thank you for the votes of confidence guys. My reviews of some deluxe figures from AOE should be up next week. I've had a hard time finding Canadian folks that can pick me up the figures.
