Vi's cave of bad choices

The Lilo & Stitch fandom is full of irredeemably stupid people with incredibly toxic views on family and friendship.

I haven't been this legitimately angry at an emotionally stunted fandom since Toy Story 4.

Some of these people are in desperate need of therapy.

Like it really is the best remaining avenue for exploring the gemiverse.

The Crystal Gems are all finally relaxing and basically retired on Earth running Little Homeworld.

Steven has gone off to work on himself/discover more of his human half.

Homeworld has basically put the diamonds into a backseat role while it transitions to a democracy, and Spinel is playing jester to the diamonds to keep them placated.

Stuff with towneys is sorted - but Lars and the off colors specifically wanted to head back into space. They have no actual allegiance to Homeworld after everything they experienced and have the most growth potential since they were really just past the start of their own journeys. Lars, after his character growth, honestly makes for a great human everyman to replace Steven in the narrative.

I'm going to be so so so honest. I was familiar with the character/backstory introduced this week in Dan Da Dan (I fell down a rabbit hole after last season - though I've avoided reading the manga so I can at least be surprised by things still) and wasn't expecting to like them.

But seeing it laid out, presented and told like it has been it WORKS. Damm, that is a hard trope/character to get right and they've kind of nailed it.

Dan Da Dan continues to be an absolute banger.

I was expecting Jiji to mature/get a power, but I'll reserve my thoughts until after this storyline is resolved.
Agreed on Evil Eye. Poor albino kid, and all the other kids who got sacrificed. This is the 3rd misunderstood spirit with a tragic past who ends up taking over/teaming up with one of the MCs, but I'm enjoying it. Now blow up all the village elders, please.

After some effort I managed to find the basic Cyber World toys and Skorponok

Only had enough free cash to get one, so I got Snarl, who was my most wanted.

I love this at $10. Limited articulation and goofy alt mode, sure, but the auto morph gimmick is great, the molding and paint is stellar and the plastic quality and joints are probably the best I've ever felt on a budget line.

Feels like my childhood, honestly.

Getting Sky-Byte as soon as I can. This line rules.

Remaining wave 1 figures I need to get:
Sky-Byte & Galvatron

Gonna hold out for a sale/clearance for Scorpnok, and designs I like more for Bee, Prime and Megatron.

Next wave's off-road Bee and Prime for sure - and I'll hope Megatron gets another design. The Bull just doesn't do it for me. Worst case scenario I pick it up down the road.
