Clearly what Hasbro needs is a council made up of us Allspark posters who can review all of these proposals to approve or deny. I'll get the robes and torches for the chamber.

Haven't investors been getting on Hasbro for excess stock? Sounds like they just found some unsold product in a warehouse sweep.

Jason is Friday the 13th. Halloween has Michael Meyers 😛

It was before that. I remember seeing DVDs in the stores like a month after the initial theatre run. This was in the 2010s. They were greasing that pipeline long before streaming picked up.

Jet truck.

Bold of you to assume Michael Bay would start following his own continuity now 😛

I admit I like theatres. Maybe it's my inner 90s kid, but I still love the experience. Be it being with the hubby on a date, out with friends, or just when I'm by my lonesome and have an afternoon to kill. But I am very much in a shrinking minority on that front. My friends and husband? More...

Now that's just not true.

"GIVE ME YOUR FACE!"

ROFL I did appreciate that. I donno. These things are fun. And manage to fill the "cute cheap desk toy" niche Funko Pops fill while actually being worthwhile. Still... I don't know if I'm gonna feel any urge to collect these guys outside of the random few I find interesting. I don't need to be...

Someone sold me an extra TFO Sentinel Prime. I enjoy him. The sculpt is fun and I'm kind of an idiot when it comes to model kits so I appreciated the dumbed down model kit feel. I want to get the chase blue IDW Optimus eventually but I really dislike blindpacking as a gimmick so... I'll just...

No, but I never read Powerlinx Prime's colours as black or dark grey. I still have my toy from back then. He's on a shelf in the other room. He's navy blue, and so I read the cartoon's colouration as navy blue for the body and royal blue for the hands and head. Because of this the colour scheme...

Yeah WW/Cybertronian IDW Prime is the only other Optimus design I can think of that does the hood chest thing, and that's what Cyberworld is committing to. I also get vague Armada vibes in that it seems like a heavy duty Optimus design. I like a lot of the designs Cyberworld has going for it...

There's a double edged sword situation here. I remember there being reports of a Hasbro/Paramount after action report on TFO's failings and the poor marketing was brought up as a factor. So plus side? They realized they done goofed. The downside? They resolve to rectify that... for the next...

We'll have to agree to disagree on this one, because there's definitely an energy (I don't know how else to describe it) to Bay's Transformers outings that I think RotB just lacks, despite its ambitions.

A lot of RotB, to me, comes off as not particularly interesting. I really liked the direction Bumblebee took things in, and was looking forward to RotB. What I got wasn't a continuation of the theme and style of Bumblebee, but Bay-lite. Is it "the same noise"? I don't think so. RotB has...

I'd argue that RotB is a Bay film without the sauce. For all of Bay's faults, his movies have a style and energy to them that makes them appealing. RotB and Battleship are what happens when you try to make a Bay movie without Bay, and it doesn't work.

I think he means that this is a pretty fresh reinvention for both, compared to what came before. Optimus has the broad strokes of his classic design, but he's also pretty different. He seems as far away from "Evergreen" Optimus as Armada was from G1 Optimus. And Megatron's a bull so no...
