Someone once joked to me that "Rodimus Prime" sounds like a Transformers porn name and it's like... yeah. I think it's too late to change that, he's Rodimus for better or worse.... but if we're talking about what could have been changed in 1986... Excellion Prime? Pyro Prime? Ignitrus Prime? I...

Yep. More of the same. Shame, the idea of the thread has merit, but "I'm going to tell you why your ideas aren't good enough for me" is lame.

More stuff that could have helped Rodimus. Give him a more unique design once he becomes a Prime. Hot Rod and Rodimus just look too similar and it may be hard to sell the idea that he's become Optimus' successor if he still looks like Hot Rod to a kid. Kids aren't stupid necessarily (well some...

Quintessa brainwashes Optimus into being "Nemesis Prime" and he shows up for the big climatic battle and gets the upper hand on Bumblebee. Bumblebee is at Nemesis' mercy when he finally gets his voice back and says something like "I'm Bumblebee your oldest friend" and that snaps Nemesis Optimus...

He's a buddy of mine. He mostly hangs out on Discord and BlueSky fandom spaces these days.

G1 season two featured Warpath, Powerglide, the Arielbots, and Jetfire on the Autobot side and the Stunticons on the Decepticon side. The "Autobots are civilians vehicles and the Decepticons are military hardware" divide didn't even make it to the 1986 movie. And really it didn't make much...

It's the Fire Guts version of FansHobby's third party Power Baser

Bumblebee has a lot going for it. It's a sweet movie. It tells a simple, straightforward story well. It hits all the right notes, the characters are shockingly relatable and likeable. I don't think this would have made Transformers a billion dollar franchise if we got it in 2007, but I also...

Luke Thompson gang, rise up 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

TF movie rankings because why not? Star Wars nerds love to do this and we're not as bad as them! TFO TFTM Bumblebee '07 DotM RotB AoE RotF TLK Really once you get below RotB it's all pretty bad. Also TLK has a lot of cool designs, music, and concepts, and part of me wants to put it above...

I've been aware of the AllSpark since 2000 or so, and I used to check it for news all the time. I didn't join until 2016 though. My longtime online TF board (TFINO) finally shut down, and the discourse at TFW2005 was getting more and more toxic so... I jumped over here. This place is nice...

I don't know if they'll make Nexus' torso a Commander class or if they'll just release Nexus as a five bot gift set ala toy colours Menasor but... I'm fairly confident he's happening. They'll get all thirteen of the... Thirteen... done before it's all over.

We're getting Bruticus and Superion in AotP. I'd put money on moulds from each being remoulded/repainted into Nexus before AotP wraps up.

The Bayverse only had seven.

That's going to be a natural consequence of actually using them in fiction. So you can have them be distant, mythical archetypes but when they were that people complained that they didn't do anything/there was no reason to care. Having them feature in fiction alleviates that but also makes...

Oh absolutely. I like dark tinted clear plastic for windows but totally clear plastic windows is... just self defeating unless it's that rare figure with a detailed interior (shoutout to Classics Prime, one of the GOATs)

I prefer clear windows, but I like them as tinted dark blue or dark grey clear plastic. Likewise I'm fine with painted windows if they're black or dark grey or even dark blue. Basically I like dark windows. I just think they work better on the toys, but I understand why people want the sky...

I'd rather it just stop happening honestly. Optimus is the franchise mascot (or at least 1B to Bumblebee's 1A) and Hasbro's not going to kill him off because they're still gunshy over 1986. So just don't bother with it. And who knows? If Optimus stops dying in shows and movies long enough then...
