    (Nearly) All Transformers shows on Roku streaming

    Not sure if it's been pointed out, but for those of you with a Roku device, there is a dedicated Transformers channel (432 on mine). It appears to show about all US Tf cartoons, and just cycle through the various shows in episode order and in 1 or 2 hour blocks. You can also stream online...

    Masterpiece Theater: the MP thread

    It's not an excuse, it's physics. Every Transformer we've ever had makes sacrifices; some get very close in both modes, but there are sacrifices nonetheless. MP-44 is the closest converting, animation-accurate Prime to date. His truck mode is really good, but not exact. Alternators Optimus Prime...

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    Well I thought that was a great episode: another classic Star Trek trope but managed in a slightly different way. Plus, it explains away one of the sources of uh "discourse" we saw in the trailer for the season.

    Thundercats - General Discussion (and some Silverhawks too, whynot)

    Right? It's actually going to be built around a studio apartment in Soho.

    Post Pictures of your Transformers, Let's see 40 years worth of Transformers!

    I know they wanted to G1'ify him, but I really wish they'd found a way to better homage his unusual botmode proportions; he just looks so generic.

    Masterpiece Theater: the MP thread

    Yeah - no one is going to confuse the 3P versions as being based on anything more than generic train'ish transportation devices. It's (appropriately enough) like the difference between Earthrise Sideswipe and MP Sideswipe. Earthrise Sideswipe is close enough for most of us but if you're into...

    Similar in that they are oblong boxes? :D

    Transformers Collaborative (Transformers X NFL)

    That is exactly how Thrasher came up with it. And it was rumored to be inspired at the time by the Mad Max movies (Beyond Thunderdome came out in '85), hence the aesthetic.

    Transformers Collaborative (Transformers X NFL)

    "Dreadnoks" Anyway - he is very tempting. That being said, I already have an original Thunder Machine and HISS Megs really bummed me out. Maybe earrings Zarana (the earlier, "prettier" version) might have pushed me over the top, but even then I think I'll pass.

    The Stupid Purchases thread!

    Oh, I still have those thoughts from time to time too. I look around my toy room and think, what else could I have done with this? But then I realize I would have spent it on something else frivolous and repress... er, stop worrying about it.

    The Stupid Purchases thread!

    Do I need a thirty+ year old sports car that's slower than my daily driver sports car? No. But I wanted it.

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    Eh, opening the season with some more conventional action was fine. I think this episode would've set an odd tone at the start considering SNW's more classic episodic nature.

    Buzzworthy Bumblebee - the "everything goes" toyline

    Wouldn't it be another Waspinator? That'd actually be pretty funny if they just repacked a Waspinator and called him G1 Wasp. It's the homage Ouroboros!

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    It's funny. I wanted Detritus from the Siege mold because I didn't want that Hound. Meanwhile, I don't care about him from this mold, I just want the regular Hound.

    G.I. Joe thread - 09/13/2024: Pulsecon - Dreadnoks, Dogs and Cereal

    Can't believe they cheaped out on giving him his now iconic box of ammo with single, loose bullet! :LOL:

    She looks like 07 Movie Longarm now.

    Buzzworthy Bumblebee - the "everything goes" toyline

    I'm going to keep it simple and name him Prince because he's the "Purple Rain" maker.

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    Yeah, the camera rotation seemed like they were showing a grav shift but then it wound up pointing the same way as it started, so it didn't really make sense. Just a silly camera trick. As for the go juice, I chalk it up to the classic Trek trope of inventing something for a scene that we never...
