That’s a whole can of worms in itself! The EU sees itself formed in 1951 (European Steel and Coal Federation) or 1958 (when the Treaty of Rome formed the European Community), depending on who you ask. The EU as it is now is considered more a rebranding and reorganisation, IIRC. (Yes, I’ve gone...

Quebec separatists obviously suffer from a variant strain of the Brexit mind virus.

I can’t see a picture of a Cybertruck and not think of the driving section the Robocop 3 game.

Yeah, it was the US comic, but we got the US stories reprinted (with a delay). The story was published March 1986 in the Marvel US comic, and July/August 1986 here in the UK comic. I definitely noticed the similarity with Galvatron at the time, as the action figure was creeping into retail here...

I like that Starscream deco. We need more Starscreams in “Champion Edition” alt colour schemes, really. My favourite is Takara’s release of the G1 toy in Machine Wars Starscream’s colours, released sometime at the turn of the century.

Depressingly, it probably shows what non-white British people have to do (or feel that they have to do) in order to be accepted as senior politicians in this country. A policy that a decade ago would merely be the brain-fart of the BNP, UKIP or any other fringe far-right party.

The UK government have paid the Rwandan government over £200 million (so far!) to build and run detention camps.

Oh, it seems that yesterday (22nd) was the 28th anniversary of the Beast Wars pilot airing in the States. Doesn’t that make you feel old? (I saw both parts of the pilot in August ‘96 at the fan meeting, which was held in the old-style “cram 20 people into someone’s living room” format. I...

Does anyone else think that Magneus resembles Movieverse Ironhide crossed with a rock Pokemon?

https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-68871847.amp Government got its crazy “send immigrants to a prison camp in Rwanda at the cost of hundreds of millions of Pounds” law passed. They even struck down an amendment exempting from deportation the Afghans who assisted the British military.

That’s actually amusing, if you’re aware that “trump” is another slang word for “fart” in the north of England.

Hang on, here's a thought... The Infernac Universe figures... They're basically TransTech, but rock-based vehicles instead of animal-based vehicles? (I half wonder if TransTech characters would've been appearing in Legacy next year were Legacy not being replaced by the Swapticons range. Possibly.)

Chinese bootleggers on eBay claim another victim!

Bludgeon’s happy with his latest vintage G1 acquisition.

He won’t be properly gagged until he’s exiled alone into a prison dimension.

Demote Florida to territory status now.
