    April Fools! Real Transformers developments that would have seemed fake years earlier

    On a lighter note, finding out that PSAs for the Transformers cartoon were scripted, fully animated, voiced, and somehow never aired was most unexpected. I was also amused that the "Running Away from home is not the answer!" PSA was delivered by the Autobot that ran away from home in both...

    April Fools! Real Transformers developments that would have seemed fake years earlier

    Yeah.... ...I don't know if there's enough compensation in all the worlds for that. (In the style of the old G.I Joe PSAs) "But now we know!" "And knowledge can be a dangerous thing!" "S-C-P!!!"

    Transformers Arch foe's discussion

    Well, that's how things shook out (and Skyquake, a later European exclusive, would likely have gone to Japan if their G1 line wasn't in its death throes after "Return of Convoy"). A TV series holding its own against second-wave action cartoons such as TMNT might have meant more investment by...

    Transformers Arch foe's discussion

    It wouldn't be necessary for Sunbow-G1, however Marvel UK readers had the additional question of "Just who became Galvatron?" to add to the whole Cyclonus question that TF:TAM's script was so apathetic about. Once the whole slightly retconned body-horror-and-mind-control backstory regarding why...

    Transformers Arch foe's discussion

    Who in the fandom...? Well, probably Raksha, as she never did like any of the changes to the Sunbow season 1-2 status quo that The Animated Movie and Five Faces of Darkness made, and was never afraid to say so. Replacing/Reformatting Megatron and undoing Decepticon dominion over Cybertron were...

    Transformers Arch foe's discussion

    That's an interesting one, as the early toy commercials (presumably so as not to spoil the ending of the not-yet-released The Transformers: The Animated Movie), had Galvatron (with a Tech Spec Function of "City Commander") facing off against Ultra Magnus -- which was indeed how the second act of...

    Red Squad never let that stop them! ...even when, y'know, they really should have let that stop them.

    Random Thoughts From Out of Nowhere

    It must be noted that Penders' own art of all the echidna characters he claimed were his IP and his alone share a similarly grotesque look to the First Trailer Sonic design. An odd bit of convergence, that.

    The trees are turning pink again.... It's also tax prep season.... And a new visual novel has been announced! For more information, check out this post over in the gaming forum.

    Star Trek: Picard

    Yeah, while there have been a few attempts to chart various post-faster warp engine 22nd century cultural diaspora from Earth, people often try to forget the "Stage Irish" Neo-transcendentalists.... They could have been Travellers (the Irish ones, not the grayish ones from Tau Alpha C who may...

    The uploader requested that people not reupload this sequence of a translated Act 3 playthrough stream to other platforms. While I think that Allspark links rather than reuploads when an internal player is opened, I opted to obey the spirit of the request, so here's a link instead. It's kind of...

    Star Trek: Picard

    Given the likely late construction (after 2270, probably), one would expect so see a "Phase II" type (as seen in production art for the scrapped 1970s series of the same name) rather than the Bonhomme Richard or Achernar subclass (the type seen after "The Cage", of which casual fandom would be...

    Star Trek: Picard

    Neither did one of the Pocket Books executives (I can't recall which one off the top of my head), referring to The Return and its TNG-set sequels as the "Shatnerverse" continuity. As said books are basically to audiovisual canon Star Trek as "Wings Universe" is to Sunbow-G1 Transformers...

    Star Trek: Picard

    Well, The Lost Era tells us that Margaret Sinclair-Alexander (the CO of the disabled vessel) was the C-in-C of Starfleet at the time of the Tomed Incident of 2311, so it looks like long enough, at least in one secondary source. :)

    I can't claim to know his tastes well, but I had guessed that Yuri would fulfill one of those, what with her "big, beautiful posture" (to quote Reddit). Throw in the water balloon fight cosplay skit (now sadly rendered private), and she and Monika would be 2 for 3.... Honestly, though, if one...

    And now for something almost but not quite completely different: An art collective called MHCSF apparently has a visual novel called Tax Heaven 3000 ready for release, in which a pink-haired young lady named Iris.... offers to help you prepare your US federal income tax return. Was she...

    So that's a vote for option 5? Hey, wait a minute, that's not what I wrote up there-- Apparently Dan's closest-to-completion project is an Amiga game, interestingly enough. I don't know if it will quite fit in here or not but we'll see. If I figure out how to do a KS playthrough that should...
