I jumped into the Server Slam for Diablo 4. I think I like it a bit better than 3, thus far. 3 felt just a bit too forgiving, but there’s JUST enough edge here that I feel like, if I screw around, I WILL die (Playing on Normal). That said, I DO miss some of the concessions in UI made for the...

I’m gonna say “no” since Transit was, IIRC, confirmed as Decepticon in the Tamara Tomy art reveal. I’m also saying his role will be as significant as Blitzwing’s was in Bumblebee. There are just a LOT more characters to focus on this time around. Maybe the social media teams forgot him and...

The assorted Social Media accounts for Transformers has been posted character “cards” for the cast of the upcoming film. TFW has collected them all in a handy quick view https://news.tfw2005.com/2023/05/12/transformers-rise-of-the-beasts-official-bios-online-482884 Details from them, again...

To be fair, Chalk was always going to be off limits even if Netflix had spent for union talent like Welker and Cullen. Same reason the Beast Wars guys could get even a non-credited Frank Welker to cameo in Beast Wars, there's a conflict between the voice acting unions of British Columbia and...

Sigma 6 launched in the fall of 2005, basically concurrent with Cybertron.

This franchise has done worse I don't expect Bumblebee movie good, but I think 2007 is a good baseline for a decent measure of quality.

Since this feels like the "General Generations" Thread, I saw couple odd things to report: Hasbro Pulse has restocked Transformers WFC Siege Optimus Prime. The Voyager one. I don't know why Hasbro felt it necessary to rerun that figure, as I can't imagine that there would be enough inventory...

Some juicy rumors for next year. The Origins line is going to wrap this year with Snake Armor Man At Arms, Squeeze, Spikor, and the Eternia Infiltrator (which, frankly feels more like a refresh for the Palace Guard). Rumors are that the first two waves for 2024 will be Filmation focused. I’m...

To be fair, the first “season” had a LOT of episodes deal with falling to the dark side in regards to similar themes being used across episodes. Even still, I think this batch was FAR stronger than the first season, when taken as a whole. The first season basically played as “Star Wars anime”...

Everything old is new again, again!

So, you wondering what Rhinox’s final (or near final) look in the film will be? https://www.allspark.com/new-first-looks-at-two-upcoming-studio-series-figures/ Turns out, he’s not THAT far removed from his other merch in looks. I dig the battle hammer, and it ties into the Maximal cast being...

The film is currently available on premium VOD services, with it being available to stream on Paramount+ on May 16 (supposedly, I’m not trusting of the sources I found for that)

I think I said this before, but the only MOTU vehicles I have any distinct memories of were the Turbodactyl (gotten in 88 or so), Slime Pit (played with once, basically ruined all my classic MOTU figures, or enough they got thrown out), and the Land Shark. I remember my mom had taken me with...

So, quick recap on where we were and how we got here: Hasbro managed to secure the rights to Micronauts around 2009, on the back of the success of Transformers and its sequel, eyeing the property as another potential film adaption with Paramount. Around 2014, Hasbro was apparently eyeing a...

The white Transformers boarder and the "first trilogy" Prime design give me weird 2011 flashbacks

I kind of dig the idea of this new “trilogy” being some sort of ”divergent time line” deal. I’m daring to hope that they play with the idea that, with the Maximals maybe coming from the future, you can “rewrite” the Bay films. I’m totally on board with them “Days of Future Past”-ing the...

I don’t disagree on the general sentiment, though I think Hasbro IS getting better. Beast Alliance and their Epic Scale (4”) Marvel figures have been hitting a REALLY nice spot in terms of value for the product. Though, being the Devil’s Advocate that I am, Masterverse figures MSRP is $24.99...

BBTS is also running a weekend sale on MOTU items, notably the first waves of Masterverse basic and deluxe figures. For Origins fans, the Buzz Off/Sorceress/Jitsu/Mini-comic Stratos wave is just $35.

And many of those aren’t even the original 90s molds, at least not completely.
