Reindeer. It's called spellcheck - use it.

We moved on from grammar-nazi's years ago. Don't worry about it.

Anyway, I think this would be a great opportunity for Toyhax to do another one of their sticker-set extra accessories. While the freshly-fallen-snow trailer insides doesn't bother me that much, a new Optimus head with the beard and hat would be a guaranteed buy from me.

I'd wager that the paint app budget that would have made that possible was used up, or I'm sure they would have. That's exactly the kind of little extra touch that the Transformers team has been trying to do lately.

Yeah, probably didn’t have any paint left over after so lavishly appointing the interior of the trailer…

If you look closely, you can see polar bears playing, with white beach balls, in a snowstorm on the panels...
 

wonko the sane?

You may test that assumption at your convinience.

That one gamestop is dangerous for me.

I found springer (another on my every shortening list of must haves.), and it was, of course, the last one. So I grabbed it.

Also: optimus prime hallmark ornament. Because the tree needs to be primed. :D

If the reader’s mind immediately goes to a lewd interpretation of a single word in the context of a forum post about a toy robot’s colors, that sounds like their problem, not mine.

That’s like, Beavis and Butthead level of discourse.

Technically, it was two or three words, and in the Cheesecake thread of all places. I would suspect the odd inferred or implied double entendre would be par for the course?

And us Brits have a character of our own, prior to those two chaps, that dealt with the whole subject:

(Possibly NSFW, so put behind spoilers)


Edited to acknowledge this isn't, in fact, the Cheesecake Thread...

Got a question in Jhiaxus:
I've seen him at retail several times, but I upped and ordered him via the Amazon coupon (which made Iguanus, basically, free). Came in today and...it looks...off. I know his chest and face are painted so it wasn't going to match the molded in yellow parts, but mine seems REALLY green.
It's less obvious in the pic, but in "natural eye viewing", it's a pronounced puke green tint.

So, did I get a wonky one, or have others gotten one like this?

Edit: Turns out I have a crap light in my room. I went to other parts of my house and he is appropriately yellow. Just a weird visual trick with the lighting and the type of paint they used here.

The colors will tend to be off on the smokey gray clear plastic parts because light still partially shines through. Kind of like ER Sunstreaker but not quite as bad.
