    The Random Transformers Image Thread

    "Everything's the same, except for the fact that it's all different" would make a good descriptor of Aaron Archer's tenure. For Armada specifically, I was inspired by Dreamwave's use of the Powerlinx ports to give it the tagline "I'm covered in tinier mechs!" ...A few people even got the...

    And now for some liminal Halloween cake:

    The Cheesecake Bakery

    That 3M trio from Japan is at it again. Miley, Minmiko and Mihel aren't prince-hunting this time, but they do find the most interesting bars. (I saw Gattaca in the theater with my then girlfriend. Liked it, but it's been a long time since I saw it. May need to look it up and see how it works now.)

    Hasbr-uh-oh - Business and Tariffs Discussion

    Been media-primary for a while myself (more of space issues than funding, but either way it's been hard to justify toy collection compared to the 1990s). Welcome aboard!

    The Taxonomy of Toy-Based Fiction, or a further look at Continuity Families

    Okay, you highlighted "destruction", I italicized "apparent", because well, can we be sure? But let's say yours is the correct reading. As with Cybertron Vector Prime, we could run into the character at a later point in our timeline but an earlier one in his, because that's just how characters...

    The Taxonomy of Toy-Based Fiction, or a further look at Continuity Families

    If that's the case, we may be fated to talk (type?) past each other. I can only apologize, as I'm not intentionally trying to do that. "You'll find that many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our point of view," to quote Obi-Wan Kenobi. Forest Lee had, in the Cybertron tie-in comics...

    The Taxonomy of Toy-Based Fiction, or a further look at Continuity Families

    I admit that I don't remember him dying -- he was in pain, and the transmission was lost, but I don't recall his death being specifically mentioned. I'll defer to your recollection (as you've been putting together a 3H-Beasties timeline) on this one, but even so, it is entirely possible (due to...

    Hasbro "Transformers Timelines" comic packs

    I placed my response in the Taxonomy thread, in an attempt to mitigate topic drift. Anyway, we probably won't get recolours of these molds, because Same 4 Evergreen Characters, but Evil Eagle Starscream getting a Skywarp recolour leads to the possibility of a PR crossover....

    The Taxonomy of Toy-Based Fiction, or a further look at Continuity Families

    I moved a response from the recent Timelines sub-toyline discussion over to here to mitigate thread drift. Technically, AVP's analysis was more along the lines of "The Chronarchitect performed emergency surgery on a damaged universe when the local Cybertron was blown up." As Sabrblade points...

    Hasbro "Transformers Timelines" comic packs

    Multiquote time! Thanks to CloudFlare, I missed a lot, but I'm catching up. Some of this, to be fair, goes back to Andrew Cartmel's Master Plan, back when Sylvester McCoy was still on screen in the late 1980s fighting a losing battle against Coronation Street in the ratings. His plan (to have...

    Hasbro "Transformers Timelines" comic packs

    Well, it was inevitable that one time-travelling Shockwave would be thwarted by another time-travelling Shockwave. ...and that's why the Maximal Imperium interdicted Earth. Now, where did I put that Beast Machine Episode Generator.... got it off of 3S...

    You don't remember the massive continuity headache that resulted when an American Beast Era name reuse got tied into the Headmasters anime, and then Chip Chase was used to fix it in a callback to the original cartoon? 😅
