"My own clone!"
"Now neither of us--"
"...will be the last survivor of a doomed world!"

" That is what you were going to say, wasn't it?"
"Er, of course. Krypto, stop sniffing Other Krypto's butt."
It would be nice if I could get one of these.
Slingshot was my first Aerialbot, and if memory serves, maybe my second or third Transformer overall (I feel like there was someone between Twin Twist and him, but I'm blanking there).
Then they did my boy dirty in Combiner Wars by dropping him and...
I feel like that's more down to them no longer being with the company that licenses everything from the '80s and '90s for comic books now. I mean, we were getting crossover comics for stuff that didn't have crossover toys, too!
There's admittedly some part of me that not only loves, but finds it appropriate that we're getting a Galvatron who is basically ripping off Rodimus Unicronus's whole "Lenny from Motorhead" deal.
Didn't even notice, since the windows are open and abs aren't visible in most of the robot shots.
Stuff like this has me torn between my love for Optimus Prime, and making me wish he'd stayed dead.
I'm glad he's still around, and I love getting new toys of him, but damn.
Hey, CoffeeHorse got to talk about Jaws, so I called dibs on Back to the Future.
And hey, I can talk about Back to the Future for a while, but I'll keep it brief.
On July 3rd, 1985, the movie hit theaters that was nothing short of generational, and generation-spanning. It was a movie that...
For me, it only really looks too Optimussy with the faceplate. Without it, it's a lot of common super robot elements that are just are shared, but still different enough that it feels like another guy to me.
The most egregious thing would be the crest on his forehead. For some reason, that...
Nuts. My wife and I were really hoping to finally go back this year, since our usual annual August trip to the States is basically cancelled and it's basically a couple of towns over. But unless a small miracle happens, we're probably not going to be able to afford it. 😿
Sigh. Maybe next year...
We also have a small tribute here, given what he's done for us all.

A friend had it, and we used it as our ersatz Autobot Headquarters.
And I mean, as long as one isn't too fussed over the details (or is willing to do some customization), it could still work if they were to re-release it.
Be funny as hell if a third-party made some sort of conversion kit for...
Preview pages for Mega Man X Timelines #1 and Mega Man Zero Timelines #1, as well as order codes, variant covers, and other fun stuff.

I don't think if 3D happened now, rather than when it did to make everyone sick of it, that it would have changed fortunes too much.
But I do think something that can set the theater experience further apart from watching at home in a similar way would be beneficial.
