Motto: "Don't do drugs, beer's cheaper anyway!"
Youtube user gigasteam has gotten his hands on a sample of the previously seen Transformers Revenge of the Fallen scout class Forklift. After ranting about reviews of toys that haven't been released yet he gives us a good look at the toys Alt-and Robot-mode. See the video by clicking here or by scrolling down.

That fake Leg Mode will surely fool a lot of people into thinking he'll form part of Devestator. That is, if they don't wtch this review, or watch it with the sound off.

I hate it when reviewers go off and start talking gibberish before talking about the figure. Really no one cares, just size compare, show articulation, transform it, show comparisons and your DONE!

I find it ironic that he wants to complain about early reviewers and he chooses to do so in his early review...

Still, nice looking figure, and acceptable review.

At first, I thought this was some kind of satire video because of that. But, not...sadly.....it seems genuine.

Figure good, review BAD. I haven't seen many reviews on YouTube but they are all rubbish. No-one seems to have planned what to say. And this guy is just annoying. He says "yeh!" way too often.

Nice for a Basic (which I didn't expect to make a comeback), but with feet that tiny AND double-hinged, I foresee issues with him standing up straight.

Great looking fig.
Crappy review.
Not a sheeple.
Think for yourself, don't let the magic TV box and social media do the thinking for you.
Question EVERYTHING!!
Just because you have a youtube review channel doesn't make you special.
No, I am not friendly online or in real life.
I look forward to attending a Botcon only to settle matters with idiots in person.

Brutal review of a 1/4 decent figure. I'm a big fan of thinking about what you say before you say it and that didn't have even the slightest sense of that. Mind you, that's not to say it didn't add to the overall charm of the review. I'd say a 4/10 for the review but it seems to be his first.

If you are reading this, I recommend perhaps writing a script of what you want to discuss and go into some clearer details. I couldn't really understand what you were saying at the beginning ( too many "so yeah"s ) and the part about the gold bits didn't make much sense. Please only that that as a friendly critique, I have confidence that the next one will be better :P

I might wait for a repaint as I'm not 100% sold on the head or paint job.

How many people see this figure saying "As Seen In The Transformers Movie Video Game!" like the others?

I agree. "But... yeah," is said waaaay too much. And dbanks may be an idiot but this guy is too. All these reviews seem more about stroking one's own ego and trying to play Paris Hilton (i.e. "look ma! I'm on youtube!") than giving a good review. I'll be patient and wait to buy retail and skip being an internet diva after paying 300% or more markup a mere 2 or 3 months early just to say I got something first. I've never understood that mentality.

Did anyone call him an asshole? Does anyone know him enough to lay claim to that name? My guess is no.

Now Counterpunch... that guy is an asshole! (I'm just kidding, he's a good dude and a demi-god at Street Fighter. Merry Christmas friend)
