    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Off the top of my head: Optimus (at least, his trailer in #1), tank Megatron, Sideswipe, the Laser Rods, Rotor Force, Dreadwing, Smokescreen, Hero Optimus... and I guess the Skyscorchers in the #1 gatefold. Yeah, pretty slim pickings. I do wonder why they didn't at least have the repaint guys...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    The "bios are shorter because translation is expensive and per-word" seemed a bit bogus to me at first too, but got me curious. A quick googling makes it sound like translation usually costs somewhere between 10 cents to 40 cents per word, depending on language. I could see the sci-fi nature of...

    4/20: Beast Wars Annual 2022: Powerhug is amusing. The rest of this is a big waste, save your $6.

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    I don't really have any nostalgic feelings for the original (the toy is cool, and I have it, but I never watched the cartoon) so I know right away I won't be getting this. That said, I think it looks pretty cool, and as CoffeeHorse's post above points out, there's a lot to like about it. The...

    Shattered Glass Thread

    Woo, I can finally get Delta Magnus... nice to have the SG head too for the change every now and then.

    Welp, I just dropped a whole lotta money on a bunch of plastic crack. And that's not even deciding if I want to get Elita or hold off for Minerva...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Also happy to see the G2 Con symbol, but yeah, he really needs some more silver on the arms/thighs/feet to break things up. And a differently colored face (either lavender to match the toy, or blue to match the comic, would work). The all-silver head makes it feel like it's G1 Megs wearing his...

    Might as well ride it out with the end coming.... Week of 3/23: Likely these comics were done in full before the news broke of the impending end, as neither shows signs of building to any ending. I wonder if/when we will see any sort of changes to rush an ending in, given there's only a couple...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Wow, somehow I had never noticed his cartoon model had the jet cockpit protruding from under his turret. What a weird choice.

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Same here, the robot mode looks great and that's the biggest bit in favor for me. I was never happy with the T30 one, and skipped TR, so I'll likely get this one. But yeah, those vehicle modes... the tank having the random cockpit sticking out is so weird it feels like it must be a...

    Brawl Blitzwing Bludgeon Guzzle Quake Hardhead (sorta) half of Flywheels half of Overlord Treadshot when he's not an Action Master Tankor Strika Demolishor Shockwave (sometimes) And those are just the prominent guys off the top of my head, there's plenty more Mini-Cons or Micromasters, or guys...

    IDW to Lose the Transformers License?

    Oh wow, that's a bit sooner than expected. I thought they'd go until near the end of the year. I fear we will almost certainly not get anything approaching a satisfying ending. Some interesting choices for those 2020 G2 covers. A guy whose only memorable moment is getting slagged, and a guy...

    Transformers Collaborative (Transformers X NFL)

    Like Sabrblade and Donocropolis, I'm not really a GIJoe fan at all except where there's been some overlap with Transformers. That said, a HISS tank is a pretty iconic and unique vehicle mode, so I was interested to see how this would turn out. But doing a generic looking Megatron wearing HISS...

    Kotobukiya Bishoujo statues - Optimus Prime & Megatron

    No interest in these, but I must admit there's a lot of good little details, like the hairstyles echoing the helmet designs, or Prime's wheeled "trailer" suitcase.

    Fan First Friday 2/4/2022 11am EST

    I had held off on Leader Grimlock and Slug because I wasn't convinced we were going to get all five Leader Dinobots, but now I'm thinking we actually might? Though it is possible they're doing the "first three" that were introduced in the cartoon, and Snarl and Swoop didn't come until a bit...

    IDW to Lose the Transformers License?

    I'd say not really, the premise was intriguing but the execution has been lacking. A story that's basically just Grimlock fighting a new opponent every issue really needs to be carried by the art, and the art is kinda confusing/scratchy (the cover art is much cooler as ZC says).

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    No need/desire for the black Diaclone Ironhide, but I do love the red face/black helmet combo. Starting to get a bit tempted by that Laser Rod Optimus though...
