    Transformers CyberWorld: Optimus STILL Hates Spiders

    I have to double-check the episode numbers because I felt like I missed something. Last episode too. I guess I wasn't expecting a 3 hour movie cut down into five-minute bites, but the shift from multi-parter to discrete episodes is a little jarring.

    Kidding aside, I wish SS Devastator had more standardized limb connections. I guess the arms also being part of the torso make it tough, but hear me out: New limb potential- Duststorm, redecoes, whatever. And maybe they're not always construction vehicles-- maybe a submarine or dragon. New...

    General "Authentic Transformers" Just Doesn't Mean What It Used To

    Oh, absolutely. Lotta shades of gray and nuance to wade through. "Good" is subjective, and shovelware hurts the reputation of the system, so the Seal (like the Authentics branding) is at least *something*. At least in theory. Hasbro's made iffy decisions before. I don't know how much of the...

    General "Authentic Transformers" Just Doesn't Mean What It Used To

    I feel the need to point out that the Nintendo Seal of Quality was not *just* a marketing gimmick. It was also supposed to discourage shovelware by limiting the number of NES releases per company. The U.S. video game market already had a crash in 1983, and Nintendo really learned from it and...

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    Yeah, there's some interesting stuff in there, amidst the Hannah-Barbera vibe, disconnect with the toys, and so on. It's wild. The electrical energy being part isn't really *that* different from how Sparks/laser cores are sometimes portrayed, or the Allspark, or Kremzeek. Largely a matter of...

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    Without the gun-turning-into-ness. Anyway, as I read the CBS pitch, I was struck at how disconnected a lot of it was from the actual toys. Was the actual/prospective toyline aspect omitted, did they figure they'd match things up later, or what? Or did they seriously plan on a toyline only...

    If they did combiner limbs or Junkions/Armorizers/etc. in crazy testshot colors, oh, yeah. This is interesting (especially the unpainted one) but not what I'm looking for. (Still bummed we never got Titan Master head multipacks.) That being said-- it is a New Idea, and I like to encourage those.

    Transformers: Age of the Primes Thread: ll First Post All Listings II Update : April 12th, 2027 Bonus Wave: Repaint fun, Beast Wars, G2, Machine Wars

    There's *some* precedent, though. IDW's TMNT Urban Legends series (as understand it) reprinted the Image run and, since it wasn't finished at the time, commissioned the original writers to conclude it. (Granted, I don't think there were any unpaid legal limbo-type issues, which is really the...

    Transformers CyberWorld: Optimus STILL Hates Spiders

    If Hasbro makes accessory packs, they've gotta include Junkyard Ron's hat.

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    Transmetals PS was so much fun. A fighting game felt so right. The Armada game was great, too-- I wish we'd gotten toys of the Decepticlones and new Mini-Cons, but again, production/release schedules wouldn't've lined up even if they had wanted. ANYWAY That was kind of the era where...

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    The Player 2 colors were such obvious redeco possibilities. You'd think there would've been some coordination between the game people and Hasbro. I bet if there was a fighting game now, that'd be part of the fun.

    Toys Long Ago in a Distant Land...Transformers Timelines Feudal Japan Optimus/Starscream Revealed!

    Optimus kind of reminds me of the transforming Woody from Toy Story who turned into a covered wagon, but a lot leas cheaty.

    Many such cases. I'm still annoyed we never got that Demolishor from CW Onslaught. Previews are cool EXCEPT when they turn out to be lies.

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    It's a good mold. I was hoping we'd see it in Sky-Byte colors, or *something*. IMO every TF figure should get at least one redeco/remold/new head within a couple years.

    Now that I have Venin and *finally* caught all the the Insecticonmon (for now), I can't help but want a Galaga crossover. (Galaga 3 was the best one)

    ok but it'd be nice to get Slugfest, Squawktalk, and so on instead of restarting with Rumblefrenzyravageratbat all the time They always start at the beginning and quit partway through instead of starting at the middle or end and bouncing around. And not just the tapes! It's always 1/5,444+
