I think he HAS to screw up, so he has something to carry going forward and redeem himself for. To your point, the writing does him no favors there anyway -- I wouldn't have him screw up THAT badly, and I also wouldn't forget to actually HAVE him redeem himself (rather than just... magically...

Idk about Digital Doom, but this sounds right up my alley. I'll gladly pass on anything that smacks of Deviations' disastrous "my four year old self's revenge! And also Hot Rod stinks" fix fic to instead explore more Toxitron Collection level preproduction concept wackiness. There's so much...

I have to confess I'm not sure why you were and are being so apologetic about it to begin with. It's not really a debate; you not-inaccurately summed up a few fandom-side sentiments, and shared one observation from outside our bubble. Even Phazer's response echoes some of your within-fandom...

I, a longtime Hot Rod/imus fanboy, have taken too long to respond to this because of... (Wild Gesticulation) EVERYTHING. But here goes. I largely concur with LordGigaIce's observations. I've long been sick of the anti-Hot Rod pushback, which tends to be loudest and dumbest from people who...

I am well aware. And that movie HAD a toyline that wasn't weirdly under/mispopulated. And I mean, really, the main eventual antagonist here is MEGATRON. Sentinel plays a significant role and is at the center of a big twist, I'll grant, but were5 literally watching for the origin story of THE...

No one's ever NEEDED Musk, but there he is. ... I'm tired, boss. I'm halfway around the world and not even American, and I'm disappointed and fearful and exhausted. Sure, so many of the things this will immediately lead to are well out of my sphere of worry. But America's movements ripple...

For hug's sake.

If this were the case, they'd already have put more thought into that one choice than the lineup for the toyline/s.

Still think the kid line should be where the cogless forms are assigned. They're meant to be non-transforming, so this is the perfect place for them. Give them basic articulation and a gimmicked accessory (mining equipment, scrap cart, Energon crates, etc). Or make them Hero Masher types that...

Articulation opinions can be funny to read because the "they don't need to do yoga" argument formulation is predictably reliable enough to put on a bingo card, when what people are actually more likely to be looking for is the ability to take a few stances that are not standing firmly at...

You could make a thread! About Prime appreciation, or examining Alvarez's claims about it. Either way thanks for this; I hadn't known about this claim or refutation either.

I am fairly confused that this wasn't a ROTB style situation where the mainline and Studio Series alike had the main characters well represented, some even with two different molds (not counting one-steps etc) between them. That seemed to work okay. Or was it such a dip that they were gun-shy to...

Renewing the call, if anyone's out and about and can pick up an extra one...

The fact that the toy actually looks like he's in robo-JNCOs makes this perfect.

I think America has had its fill with orange in some circles.

I actually like the panels after that and don't see it as Rodimus getting all "emo", but a deconstruction of the usual woo bang bang kill bad guys portrayal of the good guys in war stories. I mean it can be an easy "add depth here" button to push but the story and character benefited from making...

I apologize if that seemed anything more than facetious.

Power Core Combiners retool without the automorphing springs for the drone limbs.

That's who I repurposed him as. I dig how the colors and finishes are coming out in these. There's a clean sort of muting.

Very intrigued by that Magnaboss-looking one on the box.
