    Did Hasbro acquire it when they bought Power Rangers from Saban? Was that some sort of packaged deal? I would have thought Paramount would have gotten that when they bought the entire Ninja Turtles IP.

    Pretty sure UK Sally had a completely different body design, from what I remember of looking at pics of the Fleetway comics.

    Never got to read those comics, so, what's with the three Sallys?

    Like I said before. The original plan was for Cliffjumper to be Smokescreen and for him to die at the end of Season 1 instead of the first episode.

    Yeah, this is like saying the status quo of Beast Wars changed when the Axalon and the Othership first crash-landed on prehistoric Earth. Or the status quo of Animated changed when Optimus's team first found the AllSpark. These are inciting incidents, not dramatic changes to a preexisting...

    RIP Peter Cullen

    The original plan actually was for him to die at the end of the first season. And for him to be Smokescreen instead of Cliffjumper. But, gotta have that Gritty n' Mature™ shock factor upfront to show "This ain't yo' Daddy's Transformers!" Also made worse by Starscream refusing to shut up about...

    It might be preexisting stock art recycled for the merch. Looks to me like art by Hidetsugu Yoshioka.

    Tell that to Bulkhead. He came the closest to being the only other Autobot killed off mid-series with a meaningful sacrifice that would have been a very emotional and bold move for the show to go through with, but the show instead chickened out and went from the end of one episode showing him in...

    Beast Wars and Rescue Bots both won Emmys as well. Wow, such a big shift in the status quo we only got to see mere minutes of, and coming before the actual storyline even kicks off. Exactly how it was in the first episode before Megs showed up. Starscream going on the run? Neat! Megatron...

    Watching it in Japanese is a much less suffering experience.

    I just meant if Merlin's whole thing for an entire movie was "being drunk", then that would have been too much.

    RIP Peter Cullen

    I could stand it (and even enjoy/laugh at parts of it) because of how it was only for those few minutes of the movie. But an entire movie's worth of it? Yeah, that would have felt like a repeat of ROTF. We really don't need a repeat of ROTF. 😛

    RIP Peter Cullen

    Something never actually spoken in any 1980s fiction, mind you. He did want out after DOTM, yeah. It's just Hasbro and Paramount wouldn't let him go and kept sending dump trucks full off cash to his front lawn. A nice idea in theory. Terrible execution, though, with Bee suddenly, out of...
