Oh, what could have been... (Concept sketch for the never-made Action Master Arcee toy)

Will it canon? That is the question.

Wait a sec. This is the Liokaiser thread. Omega Prime has his own thread.

So, you just recreated this:

Back when I was a teenager, I knew a kid (the son of one of my dad's friends) whose mom allowed him to play games like Grand Theft Auto, but forbade him from watching SpongeBob SquarePants because, to her, it was "too stupid." That is one of the most backwards cases of overprotective parenting...

Episode 4: "The Kindhearted Hydrophant". We get three new Energy Beast characters: the titular Hydrophant, a Spinosaurus with Earth-element Ground Energy, and a fire-element lion named Ignite Leo. The Spinosaurus's name is a bit tricky to determine at this point, but it's something like...

Yeah! Give us the "Chicken Farmers of Louisiana", Hasbro!

Watch them catch us all unexpected with the release of one based on a college football team.

Hey, hey. Don't blame John Hasbro. He was laid off by Hasbro, remember? He's with The Loyal Subjects now.

"I think he said, 'Blessed are the cheesemakers.'"

Now I kinda wanna see a reverse homage of BW Megatron repainted from that same mold.

I think my mom was okay with us watching BTAS because she grew up with Adam West Batman and probably felt "Batman is Batman. No matter the medium, he's just a silly guy in a goofy-looking suit." So, Batman wasn't considered a negative influence.

Oh, not the same for my mom. She's still set in the old "live action is for adults, animation is childish" mindset, despite accepting that there are exceptions, but only a few and they aren't the norm for her.

The irony in my case was that watching BTAS was perfectly fine, but MMPR or X-Men were not, despite being way more fantastical (and in MMPR's case, as campy as Adam West Batman) than the more grounded-in-reality BTAS with its gun violence, gang violence, and more realistic darker storytelling.

And Kevin Lima and the two directors of the documentary did this interview about said documentary, talking about the making of it and lot of additional things that didn't make it into it:

Moms thought everything popular with kids back then was a corrupt influence. Just look at all the paranoid mothers who were terrified of their children summoning the Devil just by playing Pokémon. The Satanic Panic was real, and ridiculous. Look up an old video from the '80s called "Deception...

The overall proportions of the Robot Mode remind me of Movie 1 Landmine from 2007, a toy that always gave me football-ish vibes from the get-go.

And Bill Farmer did this interview for the occasion, going over not just A Goofy Movie or his history voicing Goofy, but his overall career in general: EDIT: And yet another official upload from Disney:
