You put the YOU in Unicron.

I've been meaning to actually watch Headmasters for precisely that reason (that, and the fun factor of the toy commercial continuing I mentioned above). We get a little bit more of Rodimus in charge, even though he... isn't even prominent in the opening credits. "Hi I'm here oh sorry Chromedome...

I was very, very curious about the idea of Aligned, specifically because this was an insane undertaking, and wanted to see how that might be approached. It was never going to be one unified thing, not properly, but the effort would have been very intriguing. Takara's made a very entertaining go...

All of what you and Sabr say is true, but deliberately setting that up in a curated narrative with a specific cast -- in a universe where this is not really the done thing unless you're Scourge and a Sweep, or Fastlane and Cloudraker, and even then those aren't the same -- is still going to...

To be fair, this is pretty big ask and a ridiculous core concept for a sequel show that isn't specifically about multiversal doppelgangers and differences. "Here's your big franchise tentpole character, except it's not him, it's just someone's Megazord that happens to look exactly like him...

I'm really old, and all I remember of fan response to/view of JG1 was a sort of deep-cut fondness. Headmasters, Masterforce, and Victory were always spoken of as these really cool things, the legend of sorts growing due to its nicheness at the time. Some of this was getting to see more toys in...

This was my thought process at the time, and the exclusive Prime Masters (wish they had shells, but I ended up making some) kind of sealed the deal and let me talk myself into the price tag. I wanted a Primal Prime out of this, and probably would pick that over S1 Primal colors, but I was...

This is the best one. I remember having a poster of the one LordGigaIce posted, with the big Decepticon behind Prime (this was in like the late 80s/early 90s, with the original logo rather than the RID2001-onwards one). Never associated it with the movie myself because there's absolutely nothing...

I hope Transformers is still going strong in 10 years. And that people can afford it. (reads passed note) What do you MEAN, "pick one"?

"Engage in (inaudible)-atory chuckle."

I first came across this ep as a returning fan in my "poorly written fan fiction which turns out to basically be the movie all over again" phase, and was looking up Unicron lore to get ideas to excuse how my laughable photocopied threat would come into existence. All maybe a decade or so before...

It has to GET IN MAH BELLEH

I dig the lenticular pair by Don, and that Matt Ferguson art of Rodimus opening the Matrix is so clean. I wish the montage one had Op and Megs just facing off on a horizontal plane rather than at an angle and off-center. Love the blu-ray steelbook cover where that half of the montage is just...

I dig this. The vagueness is what I want back -- every time the idea comes up I say I'm all about (1) multiple possible pantheons and legends and (2) not confirming any of them, let them all be possibilities. And it's just FUN. The idea of these mundane mortal alien dudes (From Beverly Hills)...

I agree that it's not just flipped. The forward leg is noticeably different in terms of the slight curve. Hard to tell anything about the forward foot as the earlier piece has it getting Liefelded away because Op is wearing his altmode as a sock. Some details on the further arm's shoulder joint...

In truth, it's-- wait, here we go: There. Those can be called out in their own time.😂 In this case, this seemed relevant to the thread and to the discussion about minimizing Hot Rod in favor of Optimus Prime. As the discourse has drifted to, it's pretty clear that this is because Optimus is...

If anything, it seems like Optimus Prime is leading a charge AT us and Megatron (clearly not firing anywhere Prime is or was) is giving him cover fire. Seekers provide air support while Shockwave falls prey to Rob Liefeld Smoke eating his foot. (Hot Rod notably took the battle TO Unicron --...
