All of this fanagelling on Selects G2 Megs that could have been avoided if Hasbro had just kept the 5mm ports on the top of his tank treads from Siege. Of all the things to NOT get rid of...

So....this is a thing. Apparently there's another Buzzworthy Bumblebee four pack? And two of those are going to be Parasite (Kingdom Waspinator repaint) and toy colours Scorponok (Kingdom Scorponok repaint with a swappable alternate head)? No idea what the other two are due to this guy...

Something that I figured I would post here due to a lack of anywhere else to put it... It seems in the collective mind of the fandom we've decided G2 Megs- the neon green and purple camo'd tank- should go up against G2 Laser Optimus. Only... that's not how it was. The original G2 green and...

The Diaclone is the Prime's elite strike force, led by Delta Magnus. All members of it are characters made from Diaclone-inspired decos. The Decepticon Diaclone-inspired decos are former members who defected to the Decepticons. Little does anyone know that Diaclone member Spinout is secretly a...

Kids who grew up during the UT are getting to the age where they begin to feel nostalgic. I care [/LukeSkywalker]

He's really nice! And you get a lot with him. He's very playable.

Yeah Hasbro is never going to get away from that... Can they change industries? Absolutely. They could do that. Will they? That's not a given. In fact it's pretty unlikely. The analogues to Nintendo just don't work because they both overly-simplify Nintendo's journey from playing cards to video...

Nintendo famously switched gears when they came to the US and saw that the US Playing Card Company wasn't exactly living the high life. Nintendo's executives realized that if the largest playing card company in the US wasn't going to be super successful, then what chance did they have in a...

It's almost like they're not an IP company. Whoever believes they are, or can be, needs to seriously re-evaluate themselves because there's no way they can be. They have viable IPs (and a lot that aren't viable) but they're always going to have to partner with a Nickelodeon, or a Cartoon...

Do we know that's why Netflix said no? Or is it just speculation?

Yeah, "we're an IP company" was more an Alvarez/Archer line when they were pushing the Aligned/Binder stuff then anything the new team has said.

I just popped it off.

I wouldn't subject my boyfriend to the Netflix series anyway 😛

I remember when Hasbro released a pdf of bios, tech specks, and short stories to accompany TR's launch. That was the sort of thing that, in the UT days, would have been included on the back of the packing and in a pack-in comic. But in this age where 1) everyone needs to figure out how to...

See...there's just a disconnect with this criticism and me. I'm perfectly willing to take the names and factions we got for those characters and just create something in my own mind for them. They're only blank pieces of plastic if you let them be, after all. I mean when I was a little kid my...

Who says they have to be mutually exclusive? I enjoy a good comic or tv show as much as the next person, and all of that informs how I view the franchise and how I'll continue to view the franchise. And my tastes change. I was all about "this franchise is SERIOUS BUSINESS" back in the mid 2000s...

Um...Hasbro pitched a Legacy show to Netflix. Netflix said "no." Given how dull the WFC shows were...I'm not too terribly broken up about that. Eh...I've been constructing my own personal canon for so long that this doesn't bother me.
