Power of the Primes Hun-Gurr review

Found this review for Hun-Gurr just now. Hope it helps in seeing what the figure is about. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hl9Pw-xiD6U)

Re: Power of the Primes Hun-Gurr review

I just don't get video reviews. It takes him two fucking minutes just to actually see the toy out of the box. How in the hell do you need 13 minutes to be like LOOK A ROBOT! LOOK AN ALT MODE! HERE'S THE EXTRA STUFF!

I know it ain't going backwards but I miss pictorial reviews. I find them far more interesting and useful.

That dragon mode is really goofy. Using CW Silverbolt for the basic engineering was clever, but I'm amazed those tiny vestigial baby front legs was the best the designers could do.

Seconded. Thew is the only reviewer I have patience for, and it's because his videos are usually well under 10 minutes. Plus the writing and editing goes far beyond the effort most reviewers put in.

At least if someone posted tooooooo many pictures, you could just scroll faster. Skip ahead in a video review and you end up missing what you came to see in the first place.

Hun-Gurr looks remarkably mediocre... nostalgia not a factor for me, and this is just generally less impressive than most CW or TR offerings, IMO.

Not sure if you're being serious, but check him out if you don't know. He's pretty good.

Longer run time gives you more ad options I'm guessing.

Re: Power of the Primes Hun-Gurr review

It is better to give constructive criticism to help him improve, than to be so rude with all the caps. I also find long ass reviews are annoying, and i just jump to the section i want to see.

I like thews reviews, but just for the commentary, the actual visuals are pretty bad as you cannot really see the item he is reviewing very well.

Bridgemagnet Toys does QHD video reviews mostly less than 5 mins, but updates are very slow so he is quite behind on stuff.
