I could even buy that as standard issue ghosts (not the forced-into-public-service type that are otherwise seen in the original film) they slowly age over the course of their 100 year haunting before moving on in pure spirit form to the actual afterlife.

Definitely agreed. The Bay movie designs were way too busy. The BB movie did a bit better with scaling that back a bit and using larger chunks of alt mode in the robots, but kept it similar enough to the Bay movies to make them visually cohesive. I'm a big fan of keeping the designs simpler...

Faces have always been tricky in live action. The cartoon and comics can just draw the faces as though they were flexible metallic skin, but that doesn't translate well to live action? (maybe it would? I'd be curious to see.) So they went the route of lots of overlapping metal plates so that...

I really wouldn't be opposed to wildly different looking transformers as Cannonball, so long as they had the paint scheme. This go round, Cannonball was a Seeker. Last time, he was a garbage truck. Time before that, he was a motorcycle, and so on.

The full-animated Transformers One is probably the only route to go for a Transformers-centered movie. As long as humans are relatively cheap to film compared to rendering photo-realistic robots interacting with the physical world, any live-action movie is going to be mostly humans with the...

On one hand, the movies are clearly their own thing, so using the name Wheeljack to not be a G1-esque Wheeljack doesn't bother me any more than, for instance, Armada Wheeljack. On the other hand, there are like 14 very different guys in the live action movieverse all named Wheeljack, which is a...

The middle one looks like a Pinhead McBoo pail

In addition to Transformers, I also collect Pez dispensers. Once I found out that 5 Below had Transformers scale Pez, I had to get some.

G2 Grimlock has some delicious Pez he would like to share: I told myself I wasn't going to buy this Grimlock, but I found him for a good price at a vintage toy shop today on a work trip. Missing his gun, but I can live without it

I can find no holes in this logic.

Nice! Missed out on her the first go-round.

all accents come back around eventually

Not to overthink it, but it actually would make sense for interpreter droids to have an accent. it's a pretty intuitive way to express that, while I speak your language, I am not a local and may not know local customs/culture.

oh, I was definitely 80% joking. That other 20% is the slim chance that Vin Diesel WAS actually super into Street Sharks, or was at least in on the joke enough to do the gig for minimum wage just for the fun of it.

I'd rather see something totally different. Maybe more traditional blacks/browns/reds of movie pirates? Curious what would be packed in with him if he's going to be sold as a leader. Maybe RotB Airazor redone as a parrot (she sits nicely on his shoulder) and a couple of other accessories?

Curse you! Some things can never be unseen once pointed out.

Why didn't they get Vin Diesel to make the announcement?

Been a crazy day here, so I completely forgot about the Stream today. Managed to get on Walmart in time to order Lockout and Ferak, but missed out on Filch. Cannonball I don't think I'll order. I have the original, so I don't NEED this new one. I may get him if I run into him in a store...

Reminds me of an old bit from the show "Get Smart." They were discussing some criminals that all died during a raid on Fort Knox. Person 1: "Three of the men were shot by guards as they tossed a bag of gold bars down to the fourth man on the ground" Person 2: "How did the fourth man die?"...

There's Chainclaw, the wolf-to-chainsaw targetmaster, but he doesn't really look at all like Bullseye. Ravage is actually probably closer and/or cuter.
