Joyride/Hotwire are... Eh. I can see the logic of using Sureshot's mold, and it's not a bad idea. Close enough altmode, a little partner guy, makes perfect sense. But in practice it clashes with a lot of the associations I'd formed with the Joyride design. Even before getting into the...

Had no problem with the Animated clip. Wouldn't have minded seeing more variety, but they seemed to want to go with G1, movie, and Everything Else, and Animated got to represent that. Did kinda shrug at "Convoy", but as I noted previously I just chalked that up to them wanting to beef up the...

I appreciate it being shared here, as I was curious. Fair for Hasbro to take it down, but at least I know what the thing was.

Ah, damn it. Time to sell mine. At least I got to transform it once.

Hasbro seems to have skipped that with this Tracks. But that might be because they realized what a mess that mold was. I'd also like to see a yellow Tracks.

I'm somewhat stunned at how much I'm mulling it over, given that I have most of the stuff in it. Maybe I'll get rid of the dupes now and make some room. Or idk I could try and just sell the calendar minus the Op (and SC Grimlock) at a loss.

I'm on record worrying about this minimizing Rodimus. But once more details surfaced, that sobered into "well, it IS a short, maybe it's just an afterlife thing or a summative vision." The actual end product seems to bear that out, if being clunkily done. But I see Steevy's point of this never...

This makes much more sense.

Pain in the aft to find, pain in the aft to own. I do seem to have evaded the windshield problem (I've seen some reports of misfired pins) unless I just don't know what to look for. But the shoulders were absolutely scary tight. Thankfully there was a little dropper/squeeze thing of...

I'd probably still buy a Star Convoy retool of that.

That dialogue from the first movie was enough to kindle a lot of hope for how things would go. Peter makes it so good. "Were we so different? They're a young species. They have much to learn. But I've seen goodness in them."

The thing about Cliffjumper dying in the very first episode is that it doesn't shift the status quo, because he effectively never gets to become part of the status quo. The status quo we're dropped into is effectively post-Cliffjumper.

Yeah, i wish they'd sprung for a new Mirage that doesn't have this new transformation approach. I mean, why start now. Or maybe this is one of those "last chance for this mold" things and they will make a new one. Hard to say anymore.

The discourse really needs to evolve to understand the spread of options that lies between "great" and "done dirty".

Do tell?

All the more reason to make a transforming cab Magnus that fits into the armor... Get on it, you cowards

To my mind, TF Prime seemed to want epicness as an aesthetic affectation more than anything, and didn't really put much toward actually building it and executing it. It's like there was a checklist: dire, serious tone. Lengthy detente and small squads -- a tight bunch of Autobots and a handful...

Let me add to it. I think I can agree that the Bayverse Optimus started out okay and relatively faithful, then went off the rails pretty quickly. 2007 was a good first impression, relatively consistent, with some thoughtful, resonant lines that reflected a compassionate character. The...

It's kind of gone without saying for some time, for me, that one of the central tragedies of the Bay era was bringing back THE Transformers voice, instantly bestowing a layer of credibility upon the entire undertaking... Only to give him scripts that were middling with an occasional notable line...
