I think...I might quit Skybound. Like reading it entirely. Joe is boring, MASK is just fine, Void Rivals doesn't intrigue me as much anymore and I just...don't care about Transformers after Kirkman took over. Its an extra $10 a week I don't have to spend. Eh. I'm out.

I can't be the only one who loves Legacy Soundwave's underslung shoulder guns, right? Yeah its vestigial kibble leftover from the (janky) dropship mold, but...its always hella snazzy. And hey; better than leaving untouched hooks, like Vector Prime's legs.

Dr Wu Devastator is coming together very nicely. Pleasently surprised with the head: not as bad in person. Might even have the last two members in a day or two, given SZS's odd shipping batches.

One day I do hope we get a reissue of Slicer, even without the exo suit. Not because I want one; I'm all set. I just wish more people had a chance to enjoy him. He's fantastic.

So. Y'all lost your Starscream preorders too, huh?

I miss blast effects. I wish we got new ones more regularly. Or that weapons would more frequently be compatible. They're slowly dying out, and its a damn shame.

The third and final Preview Gallery for the next episode is up. Bit worried the next video might ruffle some feathers, but ah well. Nothing for it; onwards and upwards. www.patreon.com/drlockdown/p...

Quick cheeky Preview Gallery to round out the night. Got a smattering of filming done tonight, including the transformation sequences. Gonna try to get the rest filmed tomorrow, so that's it from me for this evening. www.patreon.com/drlockdown/p...

Another weekend, another vidya! This week, we're taking a look back at the last twenty Doc Takes, with a big 'ol buncha yapping. Hard at work on the next Soundwave Versus Review, so hopefully this tides everyone over. youtu.be/Hl0xE2oGxZQ

So continuing the Starscream Saga, while I have mine, I went back to the original JB Hi Fi I preordered at to see how its going (saving that preorder for a friend). The staff were annoyed as well, because their stock got 'reallocated to higher priority stores' to be on shelves.

Well...that was a pain in the arse. And I just happened to stumble across it. My preorder is still open and paid for; stuck at my local store until potentially late next month. I don't think I particularly like artificual scarcity...

For a cheeky saturday treat, you can now catch a small part of me in Mr Loubat's 'Titan Class Conversation' video, where I dunk on Fortress Maximus because...god he's disappointing. Make sure to send Mr Loubat and the gang some love. :D youtu.be/IeJxVpa5lXc

First Preview Gallery is up for Review #190. Wowsers...190 reviews...how time flies. Guess weekly uploads will do that, but nevertheless, finally making some progress. More galleries in the coming days. Potentially tomorrow. More likely Sunday. www.patreon.com/drlockdown/p...

The next review is FINALLY fully scripted. Took a bit as I got stuck with writers block, but got there in the end, and happy with how it turned out. We tackling Legacy United VS SS86 Soundwave, a LONG overdue diagnosis I've had in my back pocket for ages. Preview Galleries soon.

Not a fan. It's not a bad figure, but it just feels like a downgrade in so many ways. Photographs excellently, but in person the paint is so whispy and the plastic feels super cheap. Back of the jet isn't figure-damning, but it is annoying, and the height extensions feel so

Cheeky compilation for a mid-week drop. Yes, today we're taking a look at the history of Hot Wheels Transformers starting off with the rocky controversy of Mattel Creations, before transitioning over to the more well-liked Collaborative stuff. Can you really beat that? youtu.be/lETFDqsbyFo

Wait...no shot these two are actually fantastic. Don't tell me Devastator is the lineup that ACTUALLY gets me invested in Dr Wu. Bloody hell.

Weird question. Later in the month, I had a new review on Dinoking planned. But SS86 Cyclonus has just dropped down under, and I'd like to know. Would y'all prefer a Dinoking Review in the middle of the month, or a Kingdom VS SS86 Cyclonus review? Up to y'all. Happy to do either.

This Sunday's review is gonna be a nice fify minute lineup of Doc Takes, in all their higher-quality glory. And I've already got it up for Early Access, ready to go. This will allow me to get stuck into the big future projects for this month. www.patreon.com/drlockdown/p...

Its time to talk robbitz! But not those robbitz! The other robbitz! Its OVA Hell time! In this episode, the gang goes back to one of the coolest mecha movies from Bandai Visual, with a healthy dose of introspection. OVA Hell: Patlabor The Movie, OUT NOW!

Oooooh yeah. That's the stuff. Haven't tried out all the bits, but very much liking this DNA kit.

Gonna be a chill week with some compilations dropping, as I have two HUGE projects I'm working on that'll need some extra time. So we got the Hot Wheels compilation this Thursday, a Doc Takes compilation this weekend...then the next...something I KNOW y'all have been waiting for.

In case you missed it, Review #188 is now live on the channel covering Collaborative Hot Wheels El Segundo Coupe, GT Scorcher & Red Twin Mill. Was a fun smaller project to work on before the next big thing. Will have a compilation of the three HW videos up at some point too.

So the first wave of Transformers Hot Wheels was honestly quite amazing, almost breaking the collaborator curse of mediocrity. But there's one sad thing wave two hasn't accounted for. 2026 budget cuts. Oh dear. Review #188, Collaborative Hot Wheels Wave #2, OUT NOW! youtu.be/YwdYDqsa_uM

Someone has their tik tok on their phone up so loud I can hear the "faaa!!!!" from across the train platform.

Sorry for the stumbling post a few hours ago. Was just utterly exhausted and on the verge of collapse after a 2am editing finish. Anywho, the Hot Wheels Wave Two review is done and ready for release tomorrow (or you can access it now via Early Access).
