Here's a big one:

Yet another new trailer has dropped:

Because Titans Return was made under John Warden's tenure, which was when Hasbro was all "We're going back to the 1980s for All G1, All the Time, baby!" 😒

Core-rect. 😜

Sorry, but I have to say it:

Pulled out my catalog + transcriptions and found the text in question: ファイヤーコンボイとは幼なじみで、永遠のライバル。 Google translation: "He is Fire Convoy's childhood friend and eternal rival." DeepL translation: "He and Fire Convoy are childhood friends and eternal rivals." Of course, this was neither said...

That's just 1986 toy scale. :p

YEEEEEEEHAAAAAAWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!! "Call of the Primitives" in Japanese! This is the big one. The very foundation of the JG1 Primus retcon! --- At the beginning of this episode, not only does the narrator outright give Primacron's identity away to the audience immediately (instead of letting it...

And the correct robot mode head. Though, strangely, the stock photos with the white background still use the old mass-retail head instead.

I could be misremembering. I'll have to take another look at the text.

Prior to the 2007 movie, there had been other faction leaders who had been childhood friends before becoming enemies (e g. -Star Saber and Deathsaurus in the Victory manga, Fire Convoy and Gigatron in the Car Robots toy catalog bios), and Armada Megatron got really sad and grumpy when Optimus...

In my defense, TLK is really not a movie that most would like to remember everything that happened in it. ;) (Also, it came out long after the Aligned lore had made the brothers backstory a standard for the brand.)

To be fair, RobotMasters didn't do much with his gimmick either. Like, he's introduced in one chapter, and then immediately drops his disguise in the very next chapter, instead of keeping up the ruse to play the long game against the Autobots. But nope, he just had to reveal himself as Megatron...

I just find it funny that the whole thing was seemingly built out of something originally so insignificant and inconsequential. Just a measly throwaway line. And that it's never explored again in any of the other live-action movies, despite the first film being where it came from in the first...

It's funny. The whole backstory of Optimus and Megatron having once been friends and allies who were as close as brothers, before later falling out over clashing ideologies (and Megatron thinking Optimus betrayed him when it was he, instead of Megatron, who was chosen to be the next Prime), that...

We all know that the true trek across the stars was Forbidden Planet all along.

I, too, actually did wish for the HasLab Omega Prime toy to be smaller, simply because of how, in the RID01 cartoon, Optimus didn't to tower over everyone else in his standard robot mode* like his original toy did. Plus, sizing him up to the Legacy Velocitron Scourge figure means the HasLab...

Yeah, no real country has its rain stay in the plain so mainly.

SS86 Ultra Magnus is only as big as he is because of his altmode needing to be big enough to carry Deluxe class Autobot Cars, just like his original G1 toy. It's like I said before: Basically, SS86 Ultra Magnus strives for vehicle mode scale, while the likes of Siege and Kingdom Ultra Magnus...

Probably still shorter since that figure is even bigger and taller than the original.
