    THE KNOCK OFF TRANSFORMERS THREAD

    I lost interest in the Bay-style figures a while back, but I made an exception for Scourge, Tow-truck guy, and the Freezer mold, who I use as evil Junkions. This is a great looking version of Scourge.

    McDonalds Changeables Return!

    That's one thing that I don't think the high-ups at McDonald's and such understand. You see the "Starbucks-ization" of everything, where all the stores and restaurants are trying to look modern and trendy, resulting in everything looking boring / samey. I'm sure the thinking is that adults...

    McDonalds Changeables Return!

    How can any of us forget? Getting a chance to interact with Kid Vid by itself was worth the price of admission to the Burger King Kids Club!

    Hasbro has announced that ALL upcoming releases are Scourge reissues. Saves them a bundle on design / tooling / etc.

    McDonalds Changeables Return!

    Yes, I love that they pretty much did 3 categories: 1: Updates to original 80's robots and 90's dinos 2: New Robots and Dinos in the style of the originals that turn into food/packaging 3: New concept Robots and Dinos that turn into McDonalds equipment (fryer, soda fountain, etc.)

    A Long Time Ago In a Galaxy Far, Far Away.... - Star Wars General Discussion

    In my pitch for Post-RotJ Star Wars, of all the systems that made up the Republic-that-became-Empire, when Palpatine died they'd split up basically like this: 35% remains the Empire. There's 10,000 years of momentum behind the original Republic/Empire, so that's gonna be hard to break up just...

    McDonalds Changeables Return!

    A warm, fresh McNugget is pretty good. A McNugget more than about 10 minutes old is basically Pla-doh. Their hamburgers are not TERRIBLE, per se, but like, I would put them on the level of school cafeteria hamburgers. If I'm going to pick up a fast food burger, there are 20 better options in...

    A Long Time Ago In a Galaxy Far, Far Away.... - Star Wars General Discussion

    I didn't read a TON of EU novels back in the day, but I did read a few. I did like the idea that the Empire didn't just disappear when Palpatine died, but continued on in a reduced, but still significant form that existed side-by-side with the New Republic in an alternating hot and cold war...

    McDonalds Changeables Return!

    Nope. Jean-Luc's on-again-off-again girlfriend. My uncle works for McDonalds. He tell me. You wouldn't know him. He's from Canada.

    McDonalds Changeables Return!

    Vash is, of course, named after the archeologist of questionable morals and occasional love interest of Captain Picard from Star Trek: TNG. Fergon is just a goofy name for a goofy toy.

    Toys It's the Return of the 'Mac? Rumors of McDonalds bringing back Changeables for 2026

    Was wondering that, too. At first, I mistook the milk bottle with a robot face for the Under-3 toy, but then realized it's just that they made sure the milk bottle was on-theme.

    Post Pictures of Your Weirdest Optimus Prime & Megatron Pairings

    That's actually a really clever idea! My local Target has had MotU Bumblebee and Megatron on clearance, but I've passed on them as I'm not a MotU fan and have been trying to be more picky with what I buy to preserve precious space (to varying degrees of success), but using them as Classic...

    Toys It's the Return of the 'Mac? Rumors of McDonalds bringing back Changeables for 2026

    I always had a soft spot for the McNugget plesiosaur, which I'm happy to see make it's triumphant return here.

    Toys It's the Return of the 'Mac? Rumors of McDonalds bringing back Changeables for 2026

    The original 80's Changeables were all your more standard robots, but in the 90's they did a line that transformed into dinosaurs. This is a mix of both types.

    McDonalds Changeables Return!

    You can almost always find people selling near-current Happy Meal toys on ebay for not too crazy a markup. I may run to McD's once or twice during this promotion, but I also don't eat a lot of fast food, and when I do, it's almost never McDonalds (McNuggets are the perfect "eating while driving...

    Vash is definitely a "remake" of one of the 90's dino-changeables, along with Teef Rex

    McDonalds Changeables Return!

    From the Front Page, McDonalds is apparently bringing back Changeables with a whole new line of the classic Happy Meal toy! If the below image is real, at the end of this month, you can start buying Happy Meals including transforming McDonalds foods, appliances, or other paraphernalia that turn...

    Supposedly leaked pictures from internal McDonalds communications revealed that they are bringing back Changeables in Happy Meals at the end of this month! For any too young to remember, these are small transforming figures that change from McDonalds food items into robots (in the original...
