Well, his gold isn't quite the color I associate with GPS and I see little, if any swirling in it. But hip ratchets in gold plastic that loudly clicked once only to be suddenly silenced. Hrmm. Messing with it now, one leg has no ratcheting and the other ratchets at something like 80 degrees apart.

I like that figure.

Please no GPS on HFTD Sea Spray...

That moment when you realize GoBots is being talked about more then Transformers.

Anyone have experience with HFTD Seaspray? I just bought a used one (for a buck!) and all his hip ratchets broke on first movement. Does he just generally have fragile ratchets or is GPS starting?

Remember it, for it is the last thing you will hear before I *shuffle* EXPRESS MY FEELINGS IN SONG!!!!!!

Blitzwing, eh?

Huh.

He leaks his crankcase, then we all catch a few new dents.

Quick, somebody put his hand in some warm oil and see what happens.

Guys, SSSHHHHH. Megatron is passed out right over there, and dude is a MEAN drunk. Don't wake him up.

*checks Hasbro's offerings* so, never.

They're all hugged when Omega Supreme gets back

Megatron is hammered! Now, I, Starscream am leader of the Decepticons!

And megatron is so confused as to why no one is shooting at him anymore that he starts binge drinking.

Grimlock eats them for lunch.

Optimus wants to free the Minicons. Ultra Magnus says it infringes states' rights.

So... the nicest beings in the universe are fighting with each other?

No Decepticons. It's Autobots Civil War.

New York Comic Con is in October, maybe there?

So.. thus far, Hasbro only revealed Autobots for Siege. Any ideas which show they will reveal the Decepticons at?

So where did the "Stege" logo come from? All I can find is Sipher posting it an making fun of it. Where did that inconvenient version originate?

True. But it was due to Transformers' use of the name that Saban at the time couldn't use it.

But that's not necessarily a reference, just an attempt to use "Technobable" name.

It's not Power Rangers, but Saban's VR Troopers was originally going to be titled "Cybertron".

@paladin Energon would be too obvious. That's why I like Ore-13. It's not overt.. but still a nice nod.

the original Sentai called it "Enetron." all they have to change is ONE LETTER.

@saberblade True.. But I don't know.. I just want something simple like the "Energy source" in Beast Morphers to be Ore-13 or something like that.

@Tm_Silverclaw: Operation Overdrive did have a weapon called the "Transtech Armor"

*sigh* This is going to be a long subline.

I already hate the overuse of "STEGE".

I just want Power Ranger refferenes in TF and Vice versa now.

I think Hasbro might be after more than just my money this time around with these reveals.

@TheMightyMollusk Thanks for clarifying.

@Otaku, most people were oblivious. The smart ones did their emergency shopping the day before, so there wasn't much left anyway.

@wonko Only happened a few times and I don't remember the exact details, but yeah.

@TheMightyMollusk Is that really the same thing? I mean, it is if the people were casually shopping and oblivious to the danger to them or the employees of the store, but if they were desperately trying to get needed supplies themselves... or am I just supposed to be smart enough to know you wouldn't have brought it up if it wasn't the former? >_<

Okay, what? I've had to explain why the TV wouldn't work when the power is out to children, but never to an adult in their right mind.

*When I worked at the cable call center, some people wondered why their TV wouldn't work when there was an outage...

We had people still trying to shop while we were being pushed by state police to shut the store down due to flooding. The police finally had to help herd them out.

Or working for an airline and people complaining about not being able to take off in severe weather, and expecting us to know when the bad weather will end. *points at window*

Outages/fire alarms are fun when you work retail and people complain that they can't keep shopping.

Outages occasionally happened at the fulfillment center I used to work at. Never fun.

Apparently the early shift (i.e. those who didn't participate in the walkout) were sitting in the cafeteria, waiting for power to return, while the late shift couldn't even enter the building.

Oh, wow. I thought the news about the website outtage would have been the topper, but that pretty much wins.

Whoopsie.

First the union called for a two-day strike yesterday, and then today the entire city where the Amazon warehouse I work at is located apparently had a power outage.

So,uh. Seems like Amazon's Prime Day really didn't go well this year.

It wasn't just blander and more polite bacon like I was expecting
