To steal a quote from elsewhere, Splendid!  I never really thought about the 'tie of doom' until now. I have a Flywheels myself somewhere and now appreciate him even more. Ralph, if you and Nick are teaming up for future videos, what's the chance of Hub favourite Captain Shark having some camera time? ===KEN |

It would seem so. Soon, Captain Shark shall be cemented in no-budget video glory.
In other news, don't expect the daily schedule to continue. Now I know what I'm doing, Star Dub switches to a 'when I feel like it' schedule, which is how it should be. It is actually therapeutic to try to talk about why the TF toy hobby is fun, which I find helpful in my current unhappy circumstances. I honestly couldn't give a toss how many hits the vids get on youtube. There are after all lots and lots of very competant video reviewers on youtube. Have a surf and check them out. I tend to find folk who take the time to put together wee videos are positive about their hobby, rather than the terribly tiresome 'that suXXor5' attitude you see on some message boards. I like watching the reviews on the Kalel Prime, CobraCommanderTFW, peaugh and thecollector75 channels. Oh, and that blueshift2k5 chap. And whoever that Ken chap is.

Excellent to hear that Captain Shark will soon be immortalised in all his glory. Can mere video hope to contain his magnificence?
You are taking a healthy attitude to this - the important thing is to do it when you want to, and for your reasons. If other people like it then that is a bonus, first and foremost fan stuff should always be for the purpose of bringing pleasure to its creator I feel.

Well, I think you're doing a marvelous job, Doc'. I laughed out loud at Flywheels shooting flame out of his bum and killing Goldbug, again!

Love the Blot one! Brings back memories, Blot was one of my childhood faves. I always had trouble transforming his robot head. I found that tilting the monsters head up, and then back down whilst the legs are extended, sometimes pops the robot head up. I'm a big supporter of the Terrorcons. I finally found myself a Rippersnapper last year and completed Abominus.
Brilliant work on the vid, Doc'. The 'What' s at the end made me laugh!

I often find myself enjoying the less well known toys to a greater extent than the famous ones as there is more for my imagination to work on, so the likes of Blot is great. The Terrorcons are fab. I'd love to have a full set some day. I would dance a happy dance if they were re-issued.

The less well-known or seemingly forgotten stuff really stands out.

Thanks. I try for a different approach each time and for this one I felt a more low key "It's great!" approach worked as I had just got the toy and was really excited by it.

All good, but Blot's my favourite so far.

Action Master Megatron's tank DOES look good, but it lacks a /prison/  |

You can pretend the bit near the front behind the missile battery is a prison.

Ok I feel better now
When I was little if a playset had a prison it would automatically become better. So it made me so glad when Armada Unicron came out, and he had a tummy prison.

If you want, the jet throne cold be a flying prison too.

Nick and I did a Bulletbike review a while ago which may or may not end up on another channel. Something strange happened on the way to my computer though and the sound was very distorted. So, ah, some creative editing was required. Behold! The Adventures of Bulletbike: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DL9ED6q71g-Ralph |

The original may still turn up (my copy may just have had some strange compression flu), but it was fun to do the B-edit anyway.

Phew, I had a few to catch up on there. All really good, fun videos Ralph. Y'ever need a 'special guest'...... ahem.....okay maybe not.
Also after watching your videos, i lost another hour watching TF adverts. An hour of sheer joy!
Best quote of the last hour:
"action masters and pretenders were all stupid toys... micro masters had potential but was not well used... as for prime asking who would give up transforming hability to become more powerful, I wouldn't have followed, like Jazz did..." - random Youtube commenter.

TF ads bring much joy. I often watch them.
I am always up for 'special guests'. Our very own Kayevcee joins me for Star Dub's first ever 2-part video very soon. Wooo. It's in the can and will be going up on Star Dub later in the week.
