I meant bothering with the hobby at all. I'm just tired of the constant chase and dealing with orders and just the whole thing.

Little worried this will bleed into Generations in a couple years as a cost cutting measure.

Had to take a long call at work so I missed Vector Prime on pulse. Decided to go with Entainment Earth, but I only wanted Vector Prime and Nucleous, which was like $20 short of free shipping, and wouldn't you know it, shipping was $20, so I figured I'd get just get another deluxe for...

Nucleous, looks rad as hell IMO. I'll definitely pick him up (I was trying to avoid grabbing the armorizers, but the Shard looked great, so I grabbed the other two, though one of my orders got canceled) Vector Prime is good enough for my purposes, but man those legs being completely untouched...

Yo, I heard you like nostalgia lines, so we made a supplemental nostalgia line for our nostalgia line.

I'd be very shocked if they tried to tie One into the live action stuff. B-127 is just a cute way of allowing the characters to keep calling him "Bee" even though there's no reason he should be called Bumblebee what with the bumblebee being an terran animal.

The thing I remember most is the terrible, terrible length of the Velocitron arc. It takes so damn long for them to finally get to the race and finish it, and then it turns out it was just a qualifier!

There's two possibilities for cybertronians. Either they know where they come from, in which case there's no mystery, it's just a fact they understand. Or they don't know where they come from, and as such they, being very human like in intelligence, would obviously build belief systems to...

Hey, have we heard who Steve Buscemi is playing in this movie?

though kids movies in the 80s were, like, the Neverending Story, so what the hell do I know.

There aren't really "kids movies" in the classical sense anymore, it feels like, as studios want to pitch the widest possible nets to maximize profits. They're all family movies at this point, so while the description is inaccurate, I understand why people would immediately conflate the two...

Making something intentionally terrible still means you've wound up with something terrible. But beyond that, they could have tried harder than "Badassitron" and still preserved the joke.

The Badassitron joke felt incredibly forced to me.

It is really weird they gave everyone else a different, ealier name but not to Elita-1, who is one of the characters who has an existing name like that!

Young Megatron is weirdly a sticking point for me; it's just weird to have him without some sort of gravitas; even the IDW version that starts off as a lowly miner at least had that idealist chic to him. Here he's just a dude and I know that's the point, but it's just weird to see Megatron...
