What were they thinking when they made THIS toy?! | stop motion
Фильм және анимация
It's exactly what you think it is.
A stop motion review of GoBots CRAIN BRAIN.
He's also known as CRANE BRAIN, Machine Robo, MR-24, Crane Robo, or マシンロボ クレーンロボ .
For those who don't know what a GoBot is, they're basically puzzle robot toys like Transformers.

As a kid, I wanted the Transformer Shockwave so bad but could never find him in stores. So I did the next best thing: I got the fake gray Shockwave that was sold in Radio Shack and nicknamed “Shackwave” by most Transformers fans. He also had a huge “dong”. His trigger in gun mode was long and pointy unlike the real Shockwave who had a short, square shaped trigger that didn’t look x-rated in robot mode.

Cool video! Nice little Go-Bot and funny too. Your stop-motion and editing skills are humorous and entertaining. Nice and informative without picking on the little guy for NOT being a Transformer. I was there before and during the Go-Bots era and Transformers era and both toy products were cool. Transformers became more popular and seemed to be aimed more at pre-teen aged kids and middle class income families and the Super Go-Bots and Revell model kits were directed at a slightly older audience as well. Tonka really messed up though with the Rocklords toys and that was an error that would cost them. Sometimes that's the way it goes though and experience is a good teacher. It would be nice to see another contender try their hand at converting robots close to this size here in modern times that has good details and decent articulation that even low-income people can afford and be something that people in higher-income classes would enjoy as well. I'm about to take a look at some of your other videos as this one has impressed me and I already have a feeling that I'm going to subscribe.
