    Studio Trigger x Transformers 40th Anniversary Special Movie up

    Love that video. Definitely a fantastic celebration of the franchise. Awesome breakdown. I was able to catch most of the references, but this really helped with a few of them that I didn't recognize. I did spot one correction though. It's Energon Energon Ironhide, not Bulkhead.

    Takara Missing Link G1 Series

    I certainly hope they do go through with Arcee! I never loved that prototype that much, but just getting any real G1 Arcee would be amazing. Definitely not something I was expecting.

    Contemporary trilogies: WFC v Legacy

    I kind of have a hard time making distinctions between the two. I feel like the only significant difference between them is that WfC is overwhelmingly G1, while Legacy is only significantly G1. Even then though, WfC peppered in enough new characters, BW characters, a few characters like...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    They're not my preferred implementation by any stretch, but I do like them. In particular, I'm glad that we got at least the Masterforce Decepticon trio. They work well enough for how they were portrayed in the show, with the shells being basically human sized. It's a shame Waverider never got...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    In general, I'm perfectly happy with the current approach to pretenders, with the caveat that I want them to be handled with the same care in terms of scale as the rest of the line. As far as I can remember seeing in any fiction I can think of, the main '88 pretenders were all around the same...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    I never said likely, just that I'd like to see it. I'd point out I was responding to a list that included a Titan Spanner. Likelihood was never part of it... At the end of the day, I just want a good Monstructor. If SS86 Devastator is a success and Hasbro wants to use him as a template, that...

    I'd add: Commander: Dai Atlas Optimal Optimus BW TM2 Megatron - very unlikely given the Legacy Leader, but I'd still like it BWII Galvatron RiD Gigatron Animated Lugnut HasLab: Monstructor, especially if it included the shells

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    I can see the reasons for doing Gigatron as a HasLab to match Omega Prime, but this is one of the rare instances where I'd prefer not having a matching rival. I just don't like how big the new Omega Prime is. I'd really like a good Commander Gigatron who scales well with all the other RiD...

    Post Pictures of your Transformers: Turkey Time!

    When CW Devastator was coming out, I joked about putting a bunk bed in our older kid's room, moving the younger one in with her, and letting Devastator take the now open room with the toddler bed. My wife didn't appreciate it very much... :ROFLMAO: Weekend at Uni's! I can only speak for...

    Post Pictures of your Transformers: Turkey Time!

    I'm very happy to say that my wife convinced me to build a custom display cabinet during our basement remodel using some Youtube videos as a baseline. I was skeptical it would go well, and it was a lot of time and effort that I really didn't enjoy, but I'm pretty happy with the end result...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Thanks for the side-by-side comparison. As much as I appreciate the realistic animal approach for WfC/Legacy Beast Wars, Lio Convoy is definitely a case where it didn't work out the best. I don't love the anime lion head, but I think I would have picked it over the Legacy head if there'd been a...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Has there been any word about if or when any remaining SDCC exclusives will go up on Pulse? I'm awfully tempted by that Orion/Megatron set.

    Post Pictures of your Transformers: Turkey Time!

    Agreed on pretty much all points on Defender. I liked Protector and City Commander enough that I was willing to assume Defender would be better in hand than he appeared on screen. Sadly, 'twas not to be. Still, I found him more satisfying than any of the random car OR helicopter repaints that...

    It's iGear Delicate Warrior. She was a Classics-type figure that came out around 2010, I think. I saw a picture at some point with her lined up with the G1 toys. It surprised me how well she fit in with them, so I picked one up to serve as a G1 Arcee.

    Post Pictures of your Transformers: Turkey Time!

    I was going through my TFTM crate, so I decided to take a few pics while I was at it. Obviously missing G1 Springer and Blurr. They've never been particularly high on my wishlist, but I've knocked off enough other stuff the last few years that I'm starting to think about looking into...

    Studio Series discussion

    Completely random question here. While going through all my TFTM stuff, I'm reminded that I have the Generations Selects Galvatron and Cyclonus with their G1-toy-based decos and stickers. I had been hoping there would be a matching Scourge eventually, but apparently that isn't happening. I know...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    I love Beast Wars, but I always felt that Primal was the least interesting, most boring, and all around worst possible option for the poll. Of course, I also responded to a question about who should be the 20th anniversary figure that would become MP-1 with, "anyone other than Optimus Prime," so...

    Studio Series discussion

    He's around somewhere, but I have no idea where at the moment. Probably still in the storage unit. I've been in the process of organizing and trimming my collection, slowed massively by a flood we had a couple years ago. Just so happened that one thing I did have readily at hand is the crate...
