    "Welcome to the Literature Club! 💓"

    I wasn't sure how this Sunday would go for celebrations (as we were extremely unlikely to have a sequel to last year, where Monika -- with Vannamelon's help -- came partially into our world and showed off her 3-D hands). As it turns out, the Requiem Café in Anaheim, California has an event...

    Mayhem Transformers Discussion: Reheated Leftover POTPie

    My fandom has come full circle to when I first started liking this stuff at age 9: I'm in it for the fiction, not so much the toys. Of course, some of that is now because I can't really justify spending money on and then finding space for toys, but even so....

    I suspect a fair number of fanboys would be happy if they just had Monika.... (Though they way all the news reports keep setting up the references, I would have thought I'd get more traction invoking her here, as I do....)

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Hmmm. Well, they may want to remind us that they are toys, not statues, and should be played with. In a Kinetic, Imaginative, Shared Simulation. Which would make us--

    If ever there was a time to invoke his Scream Heard Around The Galaxy.... ...and silent, as is fitting. Though I'm sure we all remembered it.

    Strange New Worlds blamed a group of Romulans for changes made to the early 21st century, apparently they were more involved in the Temporal Cold War than the Berman era let on....

    The Taxonomy of Toy-Based Fiction, or a further look at Continuity Families

    No, SG Drift's own article suggests the same thing, though it's unclear if that trend was intentional or coincidental. Earlier iterations of TFWiki certainly felt that "outlandish samurai stereotype as portrayed by a stereotypical weaboo" matched how G1 Drift was originally written by Shane...

    The Taxonomy of Toy-Based Fiction, or a further look at Continuity Families

    Oddly enough, as I quoted from TFWiki above, as far as Hasbro is concerned Optimus Prime is Optimus Prime, even when he's Ginrai (who is, of course, Optimus Prime and Japanese ;)). A general information source such as Wikipedia might well feel similar, obviously TFWiki can't and shouldn't have...

    The Taxonomy of Toy-Based Fiction, or a further look at Continuity Families

    Well, you've certainly replicated the feel of the AVP columns! :LOL: Hm. I wonder if the "Vitalix" cluster (as I'm styling it) would be The One Where The Thirteen Posed As The Olympic Pantheon? Considering that in other Transformers universes you can't launch a dead turbofox from Cybertron but...

    The Taxonomy of Toy-Based Fiction, or a further look at Continuity Families

    For my part, I'd like to know if Hyperdrive was always meant to be his own character, or (as one fan theory has it) was an early design for what would become Thunderclash that got scaled down and renamed as Toei-G1 entered its Dying Days and Hasbro's European divisions were unwilling to commit...

    The Taxonomy of Toy-Based Fiction, or a further look at Continuity Families

    There's certainly a lot to consider here.... enough to invoke the multi-quote function! First, a confession: As the fan who came up with the add-ons to make a designation like "Quadwal [1.38e10.0] Theta" to refer to our own universe (not to be confused with TFWiki's Quadwal -3975.925 Theta...

    The Taxonomy of Toy-Based Fiction, or a further look at Continuity Families

    Star Wars fandom had a similar thing, which is (thanks to a helpful talk show host) how we got "Conan Antonio Motti" as the full name of the Rear Admiral choked by Vader in A New Hope. He was one of the few remaining prominent Imperials to not have a full name, Conan O'Brien asked about him...

    The Taxonomy of Toy-Based Fiction, or a further look at Continuity Families

    I mean, the current Neo-G1 and Legacy pushes are sort of keeping it going, but then you have something like BotBots.... My initial concern, back in '22, was more that TFWiki and related not-official-but-with-clout groups were treating the system as an Old Shame, and I couldn't fathom why. But...
