Nice pics! I think that SS Onslaught has the better overall robot mode, but CW takes it from the ankles down; much nicer-looking feet, IMO.

No, this is Is This It: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Is_This_It

If this were priced at or around an actual Hot Wheels car ($3 - $10), I would probably buy it out of morbid curiosity. But this really isn't for me. It's for Hot Wheels collectors who want a unique piece in their collections, and who probably will not free it from the plastic that it comes in...

I'll see your apron and raise you this: it looks like a minature version of someone wearing a G1 Bumblebee mascot suit. I think the weird-looking, dangly, open hands help sell that for me.

Yikes! That is...not good.

Yeah, I just do the pre-split and stick them on the arms that way. It's much easier.

Right arm! Make Swoop right arm (then tell him good part)!

Well we do live on a pretty phat planet.

I was disappointed with Airachnid. I really wanted to like her and thought that her alt mode was interesting. Ultimately, I just don't enjoy transforming her, and will probably donate her toy.

I have Monstructor and I really want to like that set. However, I just don't care about 90% of it. I think for all of the bulk and bluster it adds to combined mode, it makes the noggin look teeny tiny. It would have been cool to see an alternate head at least. And, of course, in typical DNA...

If people are super-pissed about it, they are welcome to join me in my living room this month, as I roll out (pun sort of intentional) my worn VHS copy of the movie. It'll be featured on an old, beat-up black and white TV (with rabbit ears), so no gripes about the color 😆! We'll have...

Interesting, to be sure. However, this was the information my eyes focused on: "The short will be presented following select anniversary screenings of the original 1986 film." Not sure what constitutes a "select" region, or if there is any way to tell whether the offerings in my city will...

I never got around to replying about this one, but it was a fun read! Thanks too, for the inclusion of my quote. I really enjoy the collecting spotlight feature, and the Memories from the Matrix section was interesting. Very cool to see the artwork of the "missing scenes" from the G1 pilot...

Matt Ferguson has some really good artwork. I bought that Unicron Lobby Card of his a few years back ( https://moorartgallery.com/en-us/products/matt-ferguson-ltd-edition-the-transformers-the-movie-lobby-card-unicron?srsltid=AfmBOorqRy-JALDZIk0OzQAflu8WwuepEHo8FoHolzcwOxB7Wz6O3SQ6 ), and it is...

I'm going to try to get to TFCon Orlando this year. I keep threatening to do it, and I never do. A couple of friends from Jax are going this year, and I should have the time to finally go.

Yes, but arguably, Chris Latta does the best "Chris Latta-as-G1 Starscream", and I think that is the point that was being made.

I was kind of put off of the anniversary stuff with that godawful soundtrack, which, I assumed, would be subbed into this version of the movie (great if it isn't). But yeah, I am not feeling motivated to go see it.

Extremely sad news indeed. I'm still in shock, and it will take some time to process. Wishing his family the very best.

Damn, sorry to hear it. He's currently a little over $200 on BBTS, and I feel like I probably would have pulled the trigger at half that (still would have waffled back and forth, though). It's weird now, because like the recent Blaster/Jem SDCC crossover, I kinda just want the guitar 😆

Yeah, it's an insane amount of money for something that is basically a curiosity. And don't get me wrong, I love the weird, bizzare, curious, out-there elements of Transformers, but this just pegged too many "what the actual crap?" moments for me, and pricing was certainly a big factor.
