    Studio Series discussion

    It's more likely just a facet of life in the anonymity-aided, social-media bubble. Even individuals who are ordinarily reasonable (if you want to believe the best of people) can have their lower-order thoughts and feelings validated and magnified by others (including those who stand to profit...

    And then they'll get mad when Hasbro does make Starscream more widely available, including down the line as a main line release. How DARE you make my hard to find exclusive less hard to find and less exclusive, you're taking money out of my pocket!

    Studio Series discussion

    Sadly, the room temperature IQs and EQs (and the bots) populating social media comments sections are persuasive evidence otherwise. In that very post's comments, it takes (surprisingly, to me, but pleasantly so) six posts before some genius starts weaving a conspiracy theory about this being an...

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

    If you're going to do it, do it, not 70% of it with the 30% being watering it down for some nebulous purpose. They've done Optimus Prime-themed things before that do not have an Optimus Prime head -- IDW Orion Pax is one from the current era. That's about as much a G1-adjacent offshoot as MW is...

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

    This is where I'm at, with more leaning toward "just do the thing". Fondly close adherence to what came before need not be reserved for Classics Kup the Seekers. Of course, this could be easily solved by providing an alternate head, but that doesn't seem to be a thing these days unless you're a...

    The jankiness of TF lore: a feature, not a bug

    "Withdraw to the ship. Prepare to activate the core bomb." "With all due haste. It-- wait, ALREADY? AGAIN? Who did you piss off THIS time?" "Whoever this Jehovah is, their witnesses have reached this sector of space. Based on this morning's encounter, possibility of frequent repetition, 98.2...

    Transformers Collaborative series

    I kind of want them to make it with a proper United States flag. The ensuing outrage from morons (and, sure, Dukes purists) might be enough for me to step outside and make s'mores from the other side of the world. And then Toyhax could come up with a set that has the usual cel-shaded windows...

    Transformers Collaborative series

    If we don't get a Voyager class USS Voyager from Voyager, what's this all been about? (The main elongated disc part would actually be fairly doable with T30/TR Cosmos' transformation, and the rest can accordion down into backpack thrusters or shoulder cannons, or split up into weapons or...

    Energon Universe - ongoing Transformers and G.I. Joe comics from Skybound

    I was VERY confused to have been quoted in this because I had no recollection of asking the question. But then my brain is mush these days, so I had to check -- the "see original post" link went to an unrelated post of mine in a totally different thread, and the question quoted here was asked by...

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

    I hope it's a new mold, or at least a suitable retool that gets the cockpit and wings right in robot mode. It's distinct enough from Needlenose/Windsweeper and the Aerialbots to need it, and has a handful of easy redecos to help recoup costs. And I might get all of them. IIRC the Sky Fire is...

    No, I also had a bit of trouble parsing it as it seemed to go back and forth a bit.

    The jankiness of TF lore: a feature, not a bug

    I don't know about "we", but Beast Wars viewer discourse at the time was awash with "which G1 character is this BW character a counterpart/reincarnation of." Cheetor was Hot Rod, Rattrap was Kup, a whole host of flawed connections and comparisons because these are different characters separable...
