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

    This is true. I would 100% be ok with getting a newly-mold Metroplex instead of a re-release.

    Based solely on the fact that I want one and don't want to pay e-bay prices: Yes.

    The 3rd Party Toy Picture thread

    Those were my first Dr. Wu cassettes, too. I loved them so much that I bought Slamdance and Decibel as soon as they were available, too. I'm a sucker for cassettes, so I'll buy pretty much any of them that Dr. Wu wants to make.

    A Long Time Ago In a Galaxy Far, Far Away.... - Star Wars General Discussion

    It really is the best Star Wars has been. I'm still 2 episodes from being done (we're slow to watch tv), but it really is so, so good. I would love to see this level of writing and production be a reoccurring thing for Star Wars shows. I'm not at all opposed to the "dumber but fun" Star Wars...

    A Long Time Ago In a Galaxy Far, Far Away.... - Star Wars General Discussion

    I like that they're letting Star Wars be a lot of different things right now. "Star Wars" doesn't have to be a specific tone. It can be a setting, with a ton of different types of stories being told that take place in that same galaxy. You can have your adult-oriented political spy thriller...

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    It would have been interesting in that it's kind of Optimus Prime's colors, just in (mostly) the opposite places.

    Takara Missing Link G1 Series

    I always just shoved the big head back there so I wouldn't lose it. I guess it worked ina way. Now, approaching 40 years later, the only part of my original Powermaster OP that I still have is his head, which I converted into a custom Pez dispenser somewhere around 15-20 years ago.

    Bumblebee was amazed to discover that when the Cylon was saying "By your command," what he meant was "I love you."

    Takara Missing Link G1 Series

    Ha! very much in a "it's ALWAYS been that way, YOU'RE the one that's crazy!" way. As an aside, I'm not usually much of a purchaser of upgrade kits, but I would 100% buy an aftermarket toy head for Walmart Retro Bumblebee. Just take a casting of the Goldbug head and match the yellow plastic...

    Takara Missing Link G1 Series

    Yeah, to me the line is built for toy colors. Being exactly the 1984 toy but with full modern articulation is the whole point to me, but I can understand how some people would want the cartoon colors.

    Spam that came in to my work email. I work in a the machinery/metalworking industry, so 99% of my junkmail is in reference to that, so this one caught me by surprise: Honestly....maybe? Are we talking, like, clipper ships? Spaceships? Airships? Are you trying to sell me something, or...

    Post Pictures of your Transformers, Let's see firetrucks fighting with sharks!

    I've more or less cut ties with the Bay aesthetic, but those "Sir Not Appearing in this Film" toys from the time are, almost without fail, just fantastic toys. Just some fantastic work all the way around, almost all of which has that "halfway-between-Bayverse-and-Generations" aesthetic that...
