Yeeesh. Anyone want a mostly free Soundwave and Noks, without the Ravage?

I didn't agree with a lot of his brand running principles or ones that were attributed to him (no interest in Sky Lynx, Wheeljack must be a bad guy name) but others made sense to me or didn't get in the way much (avoiding too much of one color across a wave or on a shelf). But I'd love some...

First I'm hearing of problems with the Sky Lynx toy, but it was bound to happen I guess. I've always been very impressed with the overall design and what they got out of it. Hell of a way to validate Commander class, after Jetfire was basically "oh, so this means 'really big' with a few more...

It's flawed (and I probably will get one of those 3P upgrade swords), but it's really cool to see what they managed with Magmatron. Commander class seems to shine with a challenge. Took me longer than I'd like to admit to sift through buried animation memories to figure out what this Skysaur...

The Micro Changers rejuvenated that line, I feel. The minifigs were the most interesting thing about the box sets (which were just big versions of the characters), so focusing on them and allowing them to also have robot/alt mode builds was neat. Seeing how they carried those out was fun too...

This is a big reason why I was happy to jump into Kre-O Microchangers AND Botbots. Well, this AND the general lack of a significant rarity tier situation. (Botbots would sometimes have a character only be in one of the multipacks, but there was no truly random packing that would have just made...

The collaborative arm of the contemporary Transformers line keeps flexing its muscle, with Takara's Synergenex kicking things into a new gear. One of the latest offerings has finally gone up for preorder for US-based fans. Hasbro Pulse, Entertainment Earth and BigBadToyStore all have preorders...

Snuggletooth joins Slammoth as a name I need to see in Transformers soon. Would've been perfect for Botbots.

Cat tax!

Clearly Unicron is a Chris McFeely fan.

Absolutely. This was very refreshing. I've always loved her voice -- she's on a list of people I'd listen read the phone book -- but she's tended to coast quite a bit and so I wasn't sure what to expect. The Elita character is also quite engaging in this, as she's a fully realized person with...

It was pretty clearly a clunky way of saying "would you mind not putting that on me right now, I'm trying to keep us from dying".

Even the alternate name is a "this is what he is", lol.

Three BWAAAAdies Evolution

The latest news from the Product Does Not Convert corner of Transformersdom involves an upcoming batch of Blokees, the blind-boxed, assembly-required model kit-type representations of our favorite characters from Generation One (and actually Transformers One) and the live-action movies. The...

Oh, no, no, this would be a facetiously colored gorilla. There's a sentence I never thought I'd say.

And then he can hang out with a red and blue Optimus Primal with a sky blue chest...

Yeah, even Hot Rod kind of skirts that by being a gorgeous futuristic monstrosity rather than an Earth car that the term would be a more textbook match for. I don't mind the beetle idea. And to head off fan whining about "his name isn't Beetle wah", just paint the beetle up like a bee so it...

Damn, they even took being Poochie from Hot Rod to give to Optimus. At the time I did wonder if they could use the Seed to revive Cybertron somehow. Then when Quintessa became a thing I wondered if she could contribute to that. Nope! Why am I not surprised that fanservice won the day again...

I like a lot about this. I should have gone for something similar (a harder pivot) rather than trying to rehab ROTB and keep as much from it as I could. Although I tend to be of the mind that Charlie should get to ride off into the sunset, this handles re-involving her fairly well (and who am I...
