Transformers: Cyberworld, WTF (Why The Faces)

[LBD "Nytetrayn"]

Their meme game remains on point. So is their game references. I'm familiar with Souls games enough to "see" stuff like the second phase and the telegraphed "area attacks", and other tropes of the current gaming meta to appreciate what they're doing here. And I'm totally down for it.

I think the rolling dodge thing, too.

I also noticed how this episode really makes it clear that they made Scorponok a much more G1-esque purple than the bright blue that his toy is.

That was really weird, in hindsight.

I know that these TV Shows Made To Sell Toys have historically always been bad at looking like The Toys The TV Shows Were Made To Sell, but...

Is it weird that I had higher expectations from a filler line? Like, I wouldn't expect them to stray as far creatively, and yet... well, I guess maybe they haven't yet, but that's still weird to me.

Especially for The Big Expensive* Toy Of The Line.

Anyway, from the front page...
