    New Conspiracy Theory: Dead End's personality component fell through a time/space anomaly into the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Universe, where the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation used it to pioneer their GPP feature! There's a reason their Marketing Department was the first against the...
  2. So... are we all still making jokes about Ghost Rider and Classics Kup around here?

    Ghost Rider has reserved a place IN HELL for Classics Kup! Or at least, that's probably a Weekly World News headline in my own mental universe... In reality he's probably still in therapy over the performance of his HasLab. I personally never let Classics Kup go because he's the only good one...

    Oh, ok, I had misunderstood. I thought he was 'next' quite a while back, hence my confusion over why he kept getting skipped. I hadn't realized they'd just advertised him way ahead. Then we find that he has no actual wavemates, just him and a Hasbro G2 Motormaster jammed into the same shipping...
  4. Generations 2027: No More Primes! It is the Age of Evolution!

    But is it an Evolution REVOLUTION...? *a short time later as people start to toss lit torches around the stake* I was just asking...

    That's why I've been a bit annoyed with Swindle. His preorder still isn't out. Products unannounced at the time he was revealed have beat him to shipping. I am totally confused.
  6. Studio Series discussion

    Huh...looks like a lot of mold reuse mixed in with the new stuff. I don't know if Fortress Maximus at that scale will work for me (I really do like the Headmaster functionality), but I have both the Encore G1-style with a full window-label upgrade and a DP Megatron hanging out with him to share...
  7. Hasbr-uh-oh - Business and Tariffs Discussion

    I love MeToons, and it's been amazing some of the incredibly obscure things they've gotten their hands on, like the old Black and White HUMAN Tom and Jerry, and more. For more modern stuff they have the Real Ghostbusters, Ninja Turtles, etc. I'm surprised though given that there is now a full...

    G1 Announcer: "The Transformers won't return after these messages...due to a forum ban." Kup, yelling in the background: "So when a DeLorean and a Pontiac Firebird love each other very much-"

  10. The Kaiju Thread of Building-Smashing, Flame-Breathing, and Slam-Dunking

    This is going to be another of those moments when people learn that in many continuities, nuking Godzilla is REALLY counterproductive, isn't it...?
  11. Generations 2027: No More Primes! It is the Age of Evolution!

    I picture fan-jet mode for Titan Skorponok as the hardest-to-swish-around altmode since G1 Fortress Maximus (though I've been told TR Maximus is even harder due to its legs not staying up, I don't know that for sure, as I don't have any Titans except Omega and Trypticon).

    Plus Armada/Energon/Cybertron were, to one extent or another, hugely gimmick-based, and in the modern day, it will usually come across as more of a model OF the character the original toy was made for, rather than a remake of the toy anyone remembers. The number of gimmicks molded into Armada...

    Could be worse. I look at the combined form, and I keep getting Ronald McDonald impressions for it, though for the life of me I'm not sure why. I think it's the golden mouth arches or something... Edit: You know, Jetfire IS technically a space alien, all these guns and their accessories...

    Jetfire: "I want knees!" (Monkey's Paw curls, his gun looses all its special features) Jetfire: "I want knees for my OTHER knees!" (Monkey's Paw hesitates, starts looking through a stack of stability-reducing design flaws) Jetfire: "I want a whole new Requiem Blaster with the original cast!"...
  15. Generations 2027: No More Primes! It is the Age of Evolution!

    True, they didn't even edit out the erroneous gun from the TR Fortress Maximus box.

    Given the way this team works, I could easily see the SpaceWarp deco later to go with Armada Nemesis. Then we can have SwordFight Jetpants vs. SpaceGun Jetpants. Assuming by that point that hidden design flaws don't cause all their partner weapons to break in weird ways before the fight ever...

  18. Generations 2027: No More Primes! It is the Age of Evolution!

    Given that we never saw the smaller scale Fortress Maximus that was rumored, if it even was real in the first place, I could see this Skorponok either being a remake of Energon or a Marvel interpretation (or both, depending on how creative the remolding is) to counter that same Fort Max if he's...

    Well, that picture answers my question, I guess. Payload took over Commettor's job. Ironic, Hasbro downsized the Minicon workforce...

    Well, on a serious note, my original Requiem Blaster did have some serious issues with stability, mostly the slotted connections between AstroScope and Skyblast, that I blamed on a mix of loose friction joints holding most of Astroscope together combined with thin plastic for the missile to slot...
