    There are medications specifically to help, but they give you the worst case of indigestion you've ever had!

    Don't worry. Though embarrassing, Furmanisms usually clear up after a few days.

    Thread of Thoughts, Questions (and Maybe Even Answers) That Don't Deserve Their Own Thread

    That's how I saw it, that the energy of the Matrix was just fundamentally incompatible with Unicron's minions. It's mixing continuities, but it would explain why it's not "evil" Cybertronians that can't use the Matrix (Thunderwing could, for instance) but specifically Galvatron and Scourge that...

    Side effects of The Matrix may include: Headache, Nausea, Itchy Lumps, Melty Transformation, Spooky Ghosts, Furmanisms, or Diarrhea. Do not use The Matrix if you are allergic to it or it's ingredients. Consult a doctor if effects last more than four hours.

    That was pretty much my line of thinking, too. A lot of times we think of the Matrix upgrading a bot into a Prime, but Hot Rod into Rodimus is the only example of it in the cartoon. The Orion Pax -> Optimus Prime transition was a product of a physical rebuild by Alpha Trion (though you could...

    Got my TF:One Sentinel Prime last night, and I was putting him in a line with the rest of the lineage of Primes (filling in as Nominus), and I got to thinking. Should Ultra Magnus be in there between Optimus and Rodimus? He never changed his name to Magnanimous Prime or anything, but he was...

    The Vintage "Lesser" Brand Robots Thread. "Give me your Converters, your Androform, your huddled Zybots yearning to transform."

    Yeah, his transformation involves tucking the tail up under the back "shell," which wasn't designed to hinge up high enough to get the tail to swing past the legs without an incredibly uncomfortable amount of flexing. I don't plan on doing much swapping him between modes.

    The Vintage "Lesser" Brand Robots Thread. "Give me your Converters, your Androform, your huddled Zybots yearning to transform."

    Been thinking we needed a thread like this for a while. Basically, a place to show off and/or discuss old 80's toylines that aren't knockoffs, so to speak, but also aren't major brand releases like Transformers and Go-Bots. Releases from smaller companies trying to compete/cash in on the...

    THE KNOCK OFF TRANSFORMERS THREAD

    I grabbed a helicopter and a jet out of curiosity. They're definitely cheap feeling, shampoo-bottle plastic, but the molding and paint aren't bad. and the weapons are decent. For $5 each, if you were trying to fill in the background of a battle scene with generics, it wouldn't be a bad way to...

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

    Small local comic and toy show in my hometown this weekend. Picked me up a few things:

    Transformers: Age of the Primes toyline discussion || update: stock renders of upcoming Alpha Trion, Micronus, Flatline, Fireflight, Skydive, ++

    Got Prima and Wasp on the 30% off sale, so I was able to cancel my preorders from Pulse. They had Megatronus, too, but he was already in my BBTS Pile of Loot, so I left him there.

    Prey (Predator 5) - streaming on Hulu

    Yeah, it looks really good! I liked Prey a lot, and this looks really fun! Feudal Japan, WWII, and Viking era are all fantastic backdrops for a Predator hunt story. The WWII one is definitely unique, looking like it may spend a lot of time with a Pred hunting airplanes from his ship, which...

    Looked at an Ollie's while I was working in Ohio. Tons of the Beast War reissues still, but none of these.

    THE KNOCK OFF TRANSFORMERS THREAD

    Dammit! Now I need a Paul Bunyon Crossover! Maybe an Optimus Prime with paint apps to make his torso look like flannel, a new bearded head, and the energon axe in a more traditional steel-with-red-paint color scheme?

    Discovered these yesterday on ebay. There seem to be several online. Loving this oversized, simplified Ramhorn remolded to be a....cow? Pretty sure cow. A cowsette, if you will.

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    Just showed it to my son a few weeks ago, and it was the first time I've watched it since I was a kid. There are some issues with the movie, but there are some great bits. The main ship design is amazing, Gothic cathedral shaped steel frame structure with interior lit translucent walls? It's...
