    The new Transformers Deal Thread

    I knew it had to happen eventually - I just expected it to happen while I was at work. Yeah. I set a price watch for thirty bucks because I just couldn't bring myself to spend more than that. I might de-car her like I did the Nightbird version. Or, now that we're getting the Prowl-based...

    Transformers Collaborative (Transformers X Star Wars: The Mandalorian)

    Hmmm... would Earthrise Runabout fit in the Prime Trailer? It almost works. But yeah, I doubt Hasbro would do that - if nothing else it's hard to imagine the rights holder being ok with a car mode that looked so far off. If they did make the Knight Industries truck with a smaller KITT that...

    Javelin and Kaskade 2 pack only thirty bucks at Amazon (lightning deal)!

    Transformers Collaborative (Transformers X Star Wars: The Mandalorian)

    I'll be honest, if I were to pay $200 for four turtles, I expected them to combine into the van. This is fun, but I'm not buying 4, so I guess I'm not buying one either. There's no way it'd only cost 50 bucks, nor that anything that could be used from that Soundwave (no, not even the front...

    I miss the old board's swear filter for stuff like that.

    A Long Time Ago In a Galaxy Far, Far Away.... - Star Wars General Discussion

    I read that interview and have no problem with it. Not fundamentally working as a story is chiefly why the sequels wound up like they are. It tends to be the major issue with many big legacy properties: they sacrifice basic quality hoping nostalgia and fan service will make up for it. Andor was...

    That thing is amazing - never knew it existed!

    This Hound is toon deco though also, meaning I'm sure we'll see a toy deco version at some point. I pulled the trigger on the set b/c I also never picked up a Sunstreaker and this one is at least all the same color yellow. I'll just sell the rest.

    I'm assuming the dong on the electrical box?

    I mean, if the T-1000's "poly-mimetic alloy" is capable of simulating flesh (and we the audience were ok with it), there's no reason Transformers couldn't have something similar going on with faces.

    Oh man - I wish we could've gotten that Reactivate Soundwave version of Cannonball instead.

    True. This is one of the areas where I think AI could actually be beneficial to the medium but obviously the slope is very slippery.

    Post Pictures of your Transformers, Let's see 40 years worth of Transformers!

    I guess the thought I have is we're a long way from name-reuse-to-keep-registered-trademark times. It's not like Hasbro hasn't made enough Wheeljacks to keep him active. So why do the live-action movies seem so adamant about using specific names and then giving them virtually zero references to...

    The Random Image Thread

    Ok so you listed your source, which is a random social media post of someone that cross posted it from a random twitter post. We are still none the wiser as to who created the image. A Google image search brings us to Know Your Meme page that links to a Reddit thread from seven years ago that...

    A Long Time Ago In a Galaxy Far, Far Away.... - Star Wars General Discussion

    I would assume the same random prop makers that did the rest of the models for the movie. And yeah - 3.75 would've been too small, they look like they may have been 5" - 6"?

    The Random Image Thread

    It's just a bit disingenuous for it to suddenly be an issue here. Historically, the Random Image Thread has been just that - random. While I agree that art should typically be credited wherever it originates, I've never seen this particular thread as that kind of place. Are we going to start...

    The Random Image Thread

    It's the random image thread, not Deviant art or whatever. We haven't been crediting the artists for non-AI pics, nor for random photoshops; why is it suddenly a big deal now?

    All that work and they kept the goggles? Otherwise, looks cool.

    If you have Target Circle, there's 15% off one toy and it works on Wheeljack... of course you then get hit with shipping unless you bump your total back up to at least $35. So - free candy!
