Welcome to The Allspark!

The need to connect everything and everyone was indeed unnecessary, but the thing is, does Vader ever really interact with R2 and 3PO in the OT? The Droids not remembering Anakin can be handwaved away by memory wipes (which seems a pretty common procedure for Droids when they change hands)...

So, Haywire3 was watching Ultraman Ginga today for his Saturday morning "cartoon" fix, and he runs into our bedroom and tells his mom: "Japan makes the best shows!" Made me smile.

Apparently, there's a strong need for Godzilla crossover figures this year? Anyway, wave 2 of the TMNTxGodzilla is out at Target. Still waiting on wave 2 of MMPR Kaiju Rangers. The wife got Hello Kitty/Godzilla #4, Gigan, tonight at McDs. And Bandai just released a new Ultra Kaiju Series Jirass...

The meaning of the word "bug" in the context of robots and computer programs certainly could be what they're going for here. That the bug face looks similar to Waspinator's is kinda fitting. Heck, maybe they're going for a reversal of "Posession", where Waspy is the invasive spark this time?

Mr Cullen had an impressive body of work, and he will be missed. RiP, and condolences to his family.

So, I was at Walmart last night, and decided to investigate this, and sure enough, the drone head is designed to connect over Bee's face, in addition to regular and battle mask versions. There's definitely an intent to do...something here. Just not sure what.

They get to earth, and everyone else is holograms.

Ideon is one of those shows I really want to watch, but never find the time to search it out. I missed my opportunity to buy the blu ray set in early 2020, not realizing it would go out of print so fast. Much as I would like a physical copy, probably have to bite the bullet and look for some fan...

Batteries Not Included So, we picked up a drone on clearance for Haywire3 to play with, and it got me thinking about the movie Batteries Not Included. This is one of those movies that I love, but don't watch often enough. What I remember, though, was that the effects when The Fixers are flying...

Alternatively, watch the live-action Yamato movie. They knew all about these reactions, and they still went down that path...

Urban Artifacts was awesome! My only regret was not having enough time to properly browse, but I did give it a quick run-through, and there was so much cool stuff in there! When Toys Were Toys used to be in a strip mall, but the new location is pretty cool, not as visible from the road though...

"You got peanut butter in my chocolate!" "You got chocolate in my peanut buttah!" Both figures look great! (Wish they were doing something similar in 4" o-ring...)

Cool! I will have to try to check them out the next time we are that way!

Naval coat Shipwreck is great! Looking forward to that one! Also, the Snake Armor specifically says "rock disguise", so I'd say that is definitely based on The MASS Device appearance.

I mean, I would prefer he look like a gray jet with a more rounded head. Something more like this: ...but I'm pretty sure I'm living in the wrong timeline for that to ever happen.

The head raises and lowers as part of the transformation. Based on the seam, I would guess the front half of the head could be separated and replaced, but there's no screw visible on the back with the head fully raised, so getting it replaced would likely involve completely disassembling the...

So, the last couple of weeks have included some traveling to visit family a couple states away. And that means toy hunting! Shout out to @Donocropolis for some awesome suggestions! Trip 1: When Toys Were Toys in Dunlap, IL, has moved to a slightly different location. I didn't buy anything of...

Here we have Models of Modern Major-Generals: Beyond deco changes, Prime gets a new head, sadly lacking an eyepatch or even a soul patch, an axe instead of a cutlass, and 2 fewer energon thingies to bung into a storage bin in the future. I think Optimus wears the pirate look rather well: I...

GMK is not my favorite Godzilla, but that looks sweet! I forgot about the Hello Kitty promos from that era, and only remembered the Hamtaro ones. Didn't realize this was an 8-week promotion. Already picked up Godzilla, King Ghidorah, Mothra, and Rodan: My wife (who is awesome)(also, not...
