I got it from Amazon when it went up for order. I normally try to avoid Amazon but I was also trying to use up a gift card.

The man, the myth, the legend: Jtprime17 over on TFW2005 dropped one more deluxe for the upcoming "Gen Prime" series, and it looks like we've finally got a second Combaticon: Vortex. This suggests the upcoming Swindle won't be the animated version and WILL combine for Bruticus. Which makes...

I got that Matrix that came out recently. it's not as small as I expected (It doesn't feel "full" sized for an adult human, but honestly, yeah this feels about the size of something you'd shove into a weird chest cavity. Absolutely worth the sub-$20 it cost, though. If the Hasbro prop replica...

Interesting there's no Starscream, even though the devs are obviously going to be getting milage out of pallette swaps with that Nemesis Prime, you'd think the seekers would have been the FIRST character model they made.

It was the bits in IDW where we see the early days of Cybertron, primative wars with roving bands of barbarians, beating each other over the heads with melee weapons, fighting in the names of the Thirteen. For some reason struck a chord with me and I just want to see more of the concept...

The Last Autobot's whole thing is that he's a legend that's discovered to be true. Beyond that, he doesn't really have a character, he's just supposed to await the arrival of the chosen one and initiate a reformatting a cybertron. Which basically the role the Arisen has in the current 13. Now...

IIRC, Alpha Trion was mentioned as being a "first generation" product of Vector Sigma in the G1 cartoon, so he might actually have more bona-fide credentials at being a member of the 13 than any of the other ones who got retconned into being members of the 13.

Not really that unusual. The could convince higher-ups for the budget to hire and pay someone to develop the functionality on their website, or they can just use freely available software that already does what they want. We've been doing dumb prime names since 1986 with Rodimus Prime.

Favorite of the 13 primes is a weird one given most of the 13 haven't had more than a more than passing appearance in fiction, outside of the Covenant of Primus. Like, I'd want to vote for Solus, but her "big thing" is getting murdered by Megatronus. I feel like this is a toss-up between Alpha...

Man, if I had known this would be released I wouldn't have gotten SS '86 Starscream. Actually I take it back, this version doesn't come with the throne, which was the main reason I got that Starscream.

If Hasbro does anything for the US, I still think Apeface and Snapdragon retools would make a decent King Kong and Godzilla.

Earthspark probably would have knocked Prime out of my top three favorite series if S2 had kept up the quality of S1. I genuinely have no idea how I'd rank it now, but I suppose I should wait for the rest of S2 and the rumored specials.

Despite how buff they looked, the Hive were supposed to have been so reliant on their technology that their bodies had atrophied, IIRC. They needed tech to even move around anymore.

Probably didn't want the crossover figure to be $200+

First look at the logo trademark https://news.tfw2005.com/2024/08/29/transformers-cyberworld-official-trademark-revealed-519621 Gives me a real 90's VR vibe, honestly, but not in a bad way.

In the cartoon I just figured they were an upgrade to the exosuit tech, which already allowed humans to transform, somehow.

Marvel revealed that eventually the two identities merge into one, so I imagine once the organic half dies they just convert to having a regular head an the organic memories carry on in the robots mind.

Apparently that's an urban myth, they had to backlight the water. https://web.archive.org/web/20140819083756/http://genekellyfans.com/musicals/myth-sitr/

They changed the lore for Titans Return to make it so the heads were little robots instead of humans in robots suits, which is probably why Daniel became Leinad.

Just gonna mention that Godzilla's coloring IS black (or charcoal, because he's a burn victim), because the 1954 Godzilla was a black and white movie and that carried through to most Japanese movies prior to the modern era where he continued to be black, (maybe sometimes being tinged green)
