Once upon a time, Hasbro themselves were pushing these games to be considered on the same level of importance as other mainstream TF media. For the year 2010, even, War For Cybertron was considered the primary Transformers fiction of that year.

It's funny how, to this day, the Power Rangers TV series has never dabbled in the concept of an evil Zordon-like villain. I can't speak for the comics, though.

If anyone lacking Paramount+ needs help in finding these episodes to watch, let me know and I can help you out.

It's Doctor Mindbender.

Think of the head as just the top of Shockwave's Tower instead of he himself. ;)

Speaking of Michael Bay, according to this interview at Variety with Paramount CEO Brian Robbins, while Bay may no longer be directing these films, it turns out he still has final say on everything that goes into these movies, and has the power to veto anything he doesn't agree with...

It's been pointed out to me that the two pics in the OP are not actually the same figure, but two separate versions. This first one has amber windows, toes with tail-light details based on the original toy stickers, an all-gold Matrix, an all-silver front bumper, the trailer, Roller, a thin...

Heh, we kinda got a taste of this in the early Marvel UK stories "Man of Iron", "The Enemy Within!" and "Raiders of the Last Ark". It's also one of Yuki Ohshima's hallmarks as an Transformers artist:

It wouldn't surprise me if only a small handful of figures get made for this Missing Link line, as it could just be especially made for the 40th anniversary. Or even, Optimus could just be the only figure made, as a one-and-done standalone release for the anniversary, like how the original MP...

I'm kind of hoping that the overwhelming success of the Super Mario Bros movie might send a strong enough message to folks like Hasbro and Paramount that they don't need to be overly indulgent in hard PG-13 content for their movies based on a nostalgic 1980s children's toy property to be both...

Yes, there was a red cab variant released by GiG in their "Trasformer" line in Italy (Diaclone proper only ever had the blue cab).

ROTF, DOTM, and AOE were all excessively violent, at times downright gory, when it came to the robot fights. Heck, DOTM had Decepticons gunning down scores of human civilians, turning them into piles of flaming skulls. AOE Even had the infamous murder of Lucas, with him being into a smoldering...

"Anything you can do I can do better. I can do anything better than you." "No you can't!" "Yes I can." "No you can't!" "Yes I can." "No you can't!" "Yes I can. Yes I can!"

Hasbro at the time: "Buh-buh-but he's not from the 1980s! We can't make a Titans Return toy of a character who's not from the 1980s! That's crazy talk!" ... "Except for Windblade, Nautica, and Tidal Wave, but everything else is crazy talk!" 🤪

The Siege and Kingdom armors wrap around Tenseg Base Optimus quite nicely. ;) I currently have mine wearing the Powered Convoy/Delta Magnus-colored SG armor, and the colors match seamlessly.

I mean, I don't care for all the cursing either, but this is nothing new. Since the first live-action Transformers movie has there been an abundance of swear words sprinkled throughout the dialogue of each film. Literally the second word spoken on screen at the beginning of AOE was the S-word...

Looks like the series name is "MISSINGLINK".

At least it finally hits Japan this Friday.

Reportedly, the knee issue is due to some kind of widespread misassembly.

It's possible he may have just improvised the music the whole way through, as the voice actors admit later in the video that they themselves had no prep time to rehearse any of that before performing it. DiCola also provided music to the 2004 script reading (the, uh, official one from OTFCC...
