    I feel like the "depressed annoyance" face fits Astrotrain. He has big dreams (like taking over the Deceptions that one time), but he's been relegated in most media to nothing more than a troop transport.

    Except the train mode is actually exceptionally accurate to a real world locamotive. There's like one or two things off and they're proportional issues. If any mode has a licensing issue it's the Shuttle. Granted NASA isn't hard to partner with, I mean Jesus there's like 80 Lego space sets a year, but it's the only one that would exist for this excuse.

    I’m like one of the few people who likes the addition of the tender, it just makes Astrotrain’s train mode slightly more accurate to his real life inspiration since that train does have a tender. Also it’s always bugged me that Astrotrain has always transformed into a tender engine that doesn’t have a tender, bit of ocd mixing with my love of trains.

This is a rare occasion where I think the extra weapons justifies the price point he was put at, because I can’t see this figure without them. His worst mode has to be his shuttle mode, the back part of it was a major letdown. Can’t wait to see how Legacy Blitzwing will look next to him.

    This guy is more worthy of leader for me than shockwave. The tender that transforms into a launchpad for the rocket legitimately makes so much sense for the character’s alt modes. More than a bunch of nonsensical armor bits that shockwave has. The guns are just a bonus since I’ve always felt like the triple changers, especially astrotrain, were the heavy hitters. Weird that he doesn’t come with his Toy accurate gun at this scale tho.

    Well, considering that the combined form of Siege Astrotrain's weapons is a sorta facsimile of the toy's BFG, the only thing that it lacks is all that purple (something that even Titans Return/LG40 Astrotrain got right with those fugly Sentinel Prime guns). Maybe the Siege Astrotrain weapons were gang molded with other black plastic components? (Ex.: Ultra Magnus's leg guns, etc.)

    The cab only pokes up over a steam locomotive’s boiler to the extent that the driver can look through the front windows to see everything in front of them only on specific locomotive designs like the 4-4-0 American standard and tank engines like the LB&SCR E2 (the basis for Thomas the Tank Engine) are like that. Other designs like Union Pacific Big Boy 4014 and the Mallard have the roof of the cab be the same level as the top of the boiler. Even the D51, Astrotrain’s G1 basis for his train mode, is more similar to Flying Scotsman in design in terms of the cab over the type seen on Thomas the Tank Engine.

    Having the cab be the same level as the boiler provides less wind resistance. That is part of designing streamlined locomotives like the Mallard. Besides, if Astrotrain would want to build speed in train mode before transforming into shuttle mode like in the show, would it be more beneficial for his cab to be like it is on the Siege toy over what it was in the G1 cartoon for less wind resistance to quickly build up speed before transforming into shuttle mode.

I've always really wanted to do reviews on KZread and I've decided if I'm gonna start i wanna start professionally so I found a Turn table, I created a logo but the only thing missing is a light box...the only problem here is the lack of light or just bad lighting so I want to get a light box Can you tell me how big is your light box and where did you get it? Thank you very much in advance!

  • @PerspectiveEnd

    2 жыл бұрын

    This is the particular lightbox I use, it's 14 by 16 which isn't big enough for some of the larger figures, which is why I have the bigger one. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07922MDPG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I also recommend you get a ring light, you can find those for about 10 bucks. So I take it you want to make reviews. My advice is to script. Always script. Even though it's boring. Nothing makes people click off a video faster than the person in it sounding like they don't know what to say next. Aside for Audio Quality... Audio Quality is the thing that will make people bail the fastest if it's painful to listen to. Anyways point is that scripting will keep you on task and keep you from sounding like your confused as to what to say next. Hope the channel goes well.

    @@PerspectiveEnd It's amazing in its modes, but the transformations are scary. I've watched a couple reviews on it, and one said that the construction wasn't going to break so easily, but it still makes me nervous. Like, the first time I tried transforming it using the directions, my fingers were sweating and it took several hours. There's a section that doesn't want to connect properly, the arms/cab roof and the thruster top/tail fin. Emgo filed down the tabs on his to make it connect better, one other guy brute forced it and somehow it tabbed into the ports, but I'm not there yet. The chest panels are a little scary during transformation, and on mine one of the side rods doesn't want to connect at all. Don't get me wrong, I love this figure cause it's everything I wanted in Astrotrain, but I think it was built too tough. Definitely not a kid's toy.

    I would never, ever transform this figure into its alt modes. The train is a wreck - ha... ha? - and the back half of the shuttle is ghastly.
