Better weapon for AlphaYellow, dye and paint. I think it started life as a TMNT accessory. ---Dave

It was a matter of timing, the last episode dropped very shortly after Uvalde. ---Dave

The color of Innermost Energon, it's AlphaPink! "Normal" light, anyway. Under room lighting the neon pink looks very different from the bright magenta, but some combination of the lighting in my photo booth and the range of my camera makes the neon pink look very similar to the magenta...

I think part of the problem was that it was really an 8-10 page side story embedded in an issue that was otherwise spinning its wheels on the main plot. So it didn't really have room to be more than a "check the boxes" sort of quickie tale, and couldn't do enough to overcome the ennui of the...

I mean...they didn't just cut to a complete filler story that takes place before or after the main plot, at least. I was kinda worried that they'd do that. At least the plot is still there, just sort of spinning its wheels. ---Dave

And now, the second in command, AlphaYellow from Amari with an ACRM booster as jetpack, a spare Steadfast helmet (the one not used in the cookies custom) and a Dragonfly tail with an extra bit of rod as her gun. I cut off her hair and added it onto the helmet, sculpting an aperture to make it...

Starting the FinalRangers with their leader, AlphaGreen (it doesn't have to be Red) in Battlizer mode! And while I originally planned to glue the backpack on, it stays fine without glue, and is removable. (The missiles can be removed as well, but I didn't paint the shafts.) ---Dave

The problem arises when you try to get new stuff. ---Dave

Yes, the musical sting was clearly a modification of the "classic" song, if instantly recognizable to fans. G. Willow Wilson is credited as herself...I'm guessing she was one of the phone screen montage people near the end? Or was she in the crowd scene? ---Dave

Another P-131 from Final Faction modded into a Robotech Destroid or Battlemech. This time, a Rifleman. (The other two Destroids are too different in body plan, I won't be making those.) I built the central hump from some counting blocks, and the antenna from styrene slat and Lego. I went for...

So, out of ten episodes this season, two of them are Balance of Terror. The Gorn ep that plays most of the same beats (with a brown dwarf instead of a comet), and then the finale. I guess the writing room agrees with the high status of the TOS ep. ---Dave

Those are some disturbing tiny hands on Terrorsaur.... ---Dave

Of course, with Discord involved, it could all end up being a Q-style test, and he's not even from this reality. "Well, most of what I told you was true, but not the bit where magic faded and everyone forgot the past. But after a thousand years of harmony under Princess Twilight, I got bored...

Well, this was the emotional/family climax of the season, but it seemed pretty clear to me that the "new conflict" is actually the old conflict transplanted. The threat to the world is not over, it's just been moved from Karachi to Jersey City. ---Dave

It's "Tell your Tale" not "Swell your Tail," Izzy. ---Dave

(And yes, Cobra Exo-Armor would work with that faceplate too, I just didn't want to paint all that white.) ---Dave

And now, with paint! ---Dave

IIRC, the stretch goal was that Joel would host two episodes. ---Dave

Yes, Death's Head showed up in a short piece prior to appearing in TF UK, specifically so Marvel wouldn't have to give him to Hasbro. And that's a character they've done quite a bit more with. ---Dave

Given that Gorn can build spaceships, they clearly calm down (relatively speaking) upon hitting adulthood. ---Dave
