    Final Fantasy

    One piece of advice, if you haven't already been planning on it, is to do FATEs. Start out in the lowbie zones, regain the feel of your basic attacks. Then work your way up to re-engage your higher level abilities. The challenge logs will get you a decent chunk of a level in the process, too...

    THE KNOCK OFF TRANSFORMERS THREAD

    For my "Mechruary" observance this year, I got a bunch of cheap Micromasters/Mini-Cons/etc from Wish and Aliexpress, and am posting one a day to my public Facebook gallery. ---Dave

    Dungeons & Dragons

    This thread was really more about tie-in media than the game, though. I'd argue there's room in Fun & Games for a "my characters and campaigns/homebrew stuff" thread, but leave discussion of the toys, cartoon, and upcoming movie in this thread. ---Dave

    Transformers: EarthSpark

    In short, Bumblebee looks least bad in robot mode (as you can see above), but Megatron looks like Donnie from Super Wings has a cranky uncle in vehicle mode (which may be a plus or a minus to you). ---Dave

    Dungeons and Dragons, The OGL and Wizards of the Coast

    Keep an eye out for a clawback, they might have accidentally put some IP (like Strahd and Beholders) into the OGL content. One of the core problems seems to have been that the guy in charge of D&D content came out of MMOs, and assumed that the whole subscription and microtransaction model could...

    Customs Studio Series Spike with fixed head

    Yeah, the hole in the back of Spike's head was a significant flaw in the toy, and the lack of eyes was just CREEPY. So I fixed one of mine (I ordered a couple to spread out the shipping cost). Comparison to the one I didn't mod: ---Dave

    Dungeons and Dragons, The OGL and Wizards of the Coast

    I can't speak for others, but I didn't bring it up here because I was too busy talking about it in several other places. :) Yeah, what a clown show, the spirit of the old T$R rising to haunt D&D again. ---Dave

    Disney animation and related media

    Yeah, credits shrunk on YouTube, shrunk even worse on cable. I suppose wait until it eventually shows up on Disney+? ---Dave

    2D/3D art Fire Blasts with pegs rather than sockets

    I commissioned Trent Troop (Prize Inside on Shapeways) to make some peg-based Fire Blasts, since a lot of more recent toys have 3mm sockets in the gun barrels instead of 3mm studs. (I was mostly motivated by Metroplex, but now he's on my Titan Shelf and a bit hard to get down for pics.) ---Dave

    IDW Little Fillies #3

    I've shifted to mail order that comes at the end of the month (the store I switched to last year has discontinued local weekly pickup and returned to purely mail order), so I'll see this issue in a few weeks. ---Dave

    Transformers: EarthSpark

    My Target had the tags up the last time I checked (Tuesday), but on empty pegs. Will check again today. ---Dave

    IDW G5 #8

    It feels like Price was either rushed or told to lay off the background clutter...there were a couple of background bits, but otherwise the backgrounds were practically deserted by Price standards. I feel he should've done more to clarify the nested flashbacks while they were going on...as a...

    IDW 10th Anniversary Special!

    Okay, that's a clever way around the rather deuterocanonical nature of the G4 comic. ---Dave

    A Very Cappy Christmas

    I ended up staying in (except to feed the strays) on Thursday, which was our worst day. And...I just realized I never turned off one of the faucets from dripping, be right back. Okay, sorted. (My house has a guest bathroom I almost never even go into, but I'd set it to drip since it was also...

    Customs (Non-TF) Dave's Final Faction Thread

    Someone was doing an Animal Companion contest, so I threw this together yesterday (then waited for the paint and sealant to dry enough to not scrape off). ---Dave
