The Mole Rat is a stealth Transformers crossover: Apparently, Mole Rats are Cobra’s diggers/excavators, and this figure shows someone suffering unpleasant side effects from mining a volatile mineral called…Dark Energon! Nifty design. Shooter is a nice deep cut, and some nice revised details...

Heh, Twitter’s API changes have broken Box Office Mojo. BOM was going through another phase of “no writers to write weekend summaries/predictions” so they were just showing their Twitter account with daily updates. That embed was recently removed because users couldn’t actually see the tweets...

With Skywarp's hands being separate pieces, how much do you think it increases the odds Powered Convoy gets two left hands?

I mean, it's the SAME people footage from the final film. Instead of running from Freezer, they start running from Cheetor before Rhinox tries to gore them. Not a flattering first impression.

Some more concept art has been collected by TFW. More explorations of Mirage's look, including different head and body shapes. More stuff with Bloodhound and key frame visuals. Probably the most interesting are numerous design explorations of Scourge, including a number of different "masks"...

A young man I work with (because I’m old AF at this point) binged Age of Extinction and Last Knight back to back. I warned him not to, but he was foolish. He did not enjoy the experience and still can’t keep the two films separate in conversation. I guess that’s what happens when you watch...

Hey! Rise of the Beasts is shaping up to be the best domestic performing Transformers film since Age of Extinction in 2014! Despite a slate of new releases, and dropping to number 8 on the charts, Transformers only saw a 32% revenue decline and still pulled another $5 million. The film is...

After 4 weekends, The Flash has dropped out of the top 10. It is also playing down to 1700 locations (a loss of nearly 1000 locations from the weekend prior), and returns dropped nearly 60% from the weekend prior. My suspicion is that, had this not been a major superhero tentpole from Warner...

I still think they at least did a good job in justifying Prime’s aggressive behavior far more than in prior films. And, if they build off this film as they seem to want, we could get some character development from that. AND, at least his personality is consistent. I remember in most of the...

Want more news about upcoming kids toys? Too bad, you’re getting some anyway! Guardians of the Galaxy basically looks done. I haven’t heard anything about a follow up assortment and places like Target are starting to dump the line. Since Hasbro doesn’t talk about this segment, it’s still...

Sometimes, Hasbro CAN get a bit clever ;). In addition to the 4” figures for X-Men 97, images have surfaced of a Titan Series (12” sized) Sentinel. So, at the very least, the X-Men will have a Sentinel to fight when these figures reach saturation. https://marvelousnews.com/252-33445

Nothing amazing, but decent episode. But it kind of got overshadowed by the promise of hijinks next week…

Any of you still playing? I been plugging away since launch, and my Druid is up to level 52, and I’ve yet to push through the rest of the story (just started Act 4 and got my horsey). Still on Tier 1, and with the assorted updates, it feels like Blizzard has addressed some of the difficulty...

I like what they got going on here. It’s fun, its got some strong hooks for long term stories, and the animation really pops. I couldn’t help but chuckle when Ma Kent decided his basic Kryptonian suit (very new 52/Snyder-esque ) was bland and “needed something extra”.

FWIW, I still get Xbox’s Bumper/Trigger and Nintendo’s Z secondary buttons all mixed up. PlayStation’s Bumper 1 and 2 structure just clicked in my brain WAY better. At least developers are courteous enough to put the controls in the same spots between consoles.

Comparing it to Bumblebee, Rise of the Beasts is doing better, albeit, probably not as much as the extra $50 million might have warranted. Bumblebee, after 5 weekends (including multiple long weekends) didn’t even break $100 million. And that was a Christmas release pre-pandemic. Rise of the...

For further context: the film languished on Fox’s shelf until Angel Studios (founded by the people sued a decade ago by studios for their filtering/editing of Hollywood films of objectionable content and then selling them) picked up distribution rights from the film’s producers (after wrestling...

Some rumors to stew and speculate on... https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/theory-rotb-mainline-cancelled-in-us.1249447/page-2#post-21414780 According to Silver Optimus (who generally doesn't spout nonsense), is claiming the reason Core Deluxe hasn't appeared in the US (aside from the...

Not just his own state, but his literal HOME. He said he lived 15 minutes from the rally location. Those are practically "his neighbors" booing him for not cow toeing to Trump. That's damned impressive, in some ways. Not that I think it'll do much to prevent him from being re-elected...

Some new concept art has been unleashed. In addition to some various takes on Unicron, some stuff that stood out to me: In one version, it seemed like the they might have used the remnants of the Maximal ship to try and revive Bumblebee in a CR chamber. Concept art of “off road Optimus Prime”...
