Yes, the animated one, though you'll have to get to almost the end of the episode to get to the part I was referencing. There's a throughline: Comment about Bruticus' shoulder-gun being available before a leg, suggesting he use the gun as a stand-in leg --> Comparison to another dude with a gun...

It's episode 5 of the original City Hunter anime, Goodbye Makimura, when Ryo confronts Makimura's killer, The General, after single handedly wiping out the criminal syndicate that hired him. Probably easier to find locally, because I'm not tech-savvy enough to find a region-free video?

Isn't Tunnel Rat based on Larry Hama, who wrote the original Joe comic? I think Snake Eyes was kind of like the superhero of the team, in sort of a Batman-like trained to the peak of human potential kind of way. And his backstory kind of dominated the Joe comic over time (literally, Cobra...

He could pull a trick like The General (at 10:17) here. (EDIT: Thank you, Blot!) Of course, it might not end any better for him...

I got my original Twin Spin as a kid in the 3-pack with Stinger and Cy-Kill. He wound up being a stand-in for Coptur until my adult collecting years.

The extra red really does help sell the American flag motif. I'll likely get one if it's available around here (don't know why it wouldn't but distribution is a fickle thing), and might just add stripes like that myself.

They're Hack and Slash fans...

We are traveling this weekend, and, yeah, been some odd mixes of options at various McDs. Hopefully weeks 3 and 4 get decent distribution...

Yeah, all joking aside, if this results in a screening of TFTM anywhere near me, I'm probably going to try to take Haywire3 to see it.

The mold looks good in red.

I think I need Paleo-Vipers and Cobra Deinonychus in ReAction+...?

Pirate Scourge is on the table, too. Chop Shop is riding him. I was able to order Mirage on Walmarts website. Took a bit of a roundabout trip to get to me, but he arrived. Still seems to be available for shipping, for those who want him?

I may be wrong, but I have always felt like The Transformers The Movie borrowed a lot of structure (or lack thereof) from Heavy Metal. Most of it feels like somewhat isolated stories bound within the framework of a looming cosmic threat, with a rock music soundtrack in the background. (Granted...

It's Cybertronian Burt Gummer! Everyone thought he was crazy, until The Dweller appeared from the depths...

...watch as your Prius transforms into the world's first electric Winnebago...

So, we know about Airachnid, and we know about Optimus Primal. Do we know what other characters are supposed to part of their respective assortments? Airachnid probably has 1 wave-mate and Primal likely has 3, right?

Anyone else seeing a Vast Predatory Bird in Kranix's altmode, or is it just me? Seriously, it looks like one of the Convertors Avarians....

Maybe take a page from The Thing's book and make a deluxe Unicron head that transforms into an eldritch Unicron horror?

I mean, if a person doesn't want it, give it to another kid, or donate it to a thrift store... So wasteful.

Probably not intentional, but the hands on Boo Bot can be positioned to play peek-a-boo...
