But it was Starscream who killed him.

Do Wheelie next!

I dunno, the Legacy Cyberverse characters have so far just been mere headswaps. The Windblade mold still looks like a version of Windblade in all its sculpting. Switch her head with someone else's and it would just look like someone else wearing a Windblade costume in different colors, like how...

I have an addendum to what I wrote before regarding the first four Marvel UK-original comic stories, particularly what I wrote about "Man of Iron". I did some further research and discovered a few incongruities with what we're told about when "Man of Iron" is set, which not only cause some...

And now we're feeling the effects again with the Legacy Shadow Striker and Side Burn figures being a weird mashup of Cyberverse Shadow Striker, RID 2001 Side Burn, and Universe 2008 Legends class Wheelie. Our only hope now for a better subtitled release of the JG1 shows would be for Discotek to...

The big red missile belongs to Armada Tidal Wave.

It was that blasted Aligned mindset Hasbro had at the time. They didn't care about fidelity to the source material, they just wanted as many aspects of the brand's fiction to be as unified as possible. :rolleyes: What's worse, the subtitles of those releases didn't just change names and terms...

Hasbro's decision to also cram in design elements of Universe 2008 Legends class Wheelie (in an attempt to also homage ROTF Shadow Striker) is the most baffling decision of all.

On the other hand, one could make the argument that Disney's continuous hiring of big name celebrities for Ghibli film dubs is a case of them hiring actors who don't specialize in dubbing anime just to entice critics and casuals, and are taking away high-profile work opportunities from regular...

Since we've figured out that the Legacy Shadow Striker mold is a sculpted-detail combination of Cyberverse Shadow Striker, RID 2001 Side Burn, and Universe Legends class Wheelie, we might as well see what a digibash of the mold as G1 Wheelie looks like. Any takers?

That's one strong balance beam.

It almost feels like one of those old "Archive Oops" instances from a decade ago where someone at Hasbro went looking for a character in their archives, found the wrong version of that character, and then used that wrong version as the basis for a new toy of the intended version. Like how we...

Stereotypically, it is easier for children to accept and sympathize with non-living things that are presented as alive in an anthropomorphic way, whereas these more cynical adult mind tends to prefer things that are more grounded in human reality.

All according to cake. (Note: "Cake" means "keikaku")

I'm getting flashbacks of people's first reactions to Prime Wheeljack.

That's why I love Karyuudo Fansubs's method of keeping all of the Translators' Notes out of the videos and instead placed into a separate PDF file that they include along with their episode releases. Or in the case of their episode uploads on YouTube, placing the notes for each episode in the...

It's probably something as ingrained in the minds and traditions of Japan as the stigmatic belief of "animation is primarily for children" that runs just as deep in the U.S.

Here's another example. Awhile back, I found on Tubi a French-original live-action movie adaptation of Beauty and the Beast, One that was more based on the original story but with a few elements from more modern adaptations added into the mix (and which was quite different from either of...

Pretty much this. I'm not a sub purist, but I still expect dubs to be good enough and/or not treat the audience like idiots. For instance, I cannot sit through the old English dub of Dragon Ball Z. The dialogue and acting are all terrible. But the English dub of Kai (even the slightly censored...
