Let's not kid ourselves. They kept killing Halo to gratuitously show her gory skeletal innards, just to emphasize what all this show could now get away with by not being on a TV network anymore. Season 3 was really excessive in stuff like that, upping the swearing and implied-but-still-obvious...

I was surprised at how little the name "Batman" was actually spoken in this movie. It was mainly just those cards from Riddler that referred to him as such, with the other characters rarely using it.

The Majestic was the first time I saw Jim Carrey play a serious, dramatic role in a movie, and it both surprised and impressed me at the time to see him actually perform in something that wasn't at all a comedy.

So, I never understood this: Why is it sometimes called the "Turtle Van" (the name I best remember it being called) and sometimes called the "Party Wagon"?

He looks devious with that smirk. 😈

There was also RobotMasters with its updated figures of Optimus Prime, Starscream, Optimus Primal, BW Megatron, Star Saber, Victory Leo, and Lio Convoy. And its G1-colored Mirage using the Machine Wars mold that was already sculpted fairly faithfully to G1 Mirage's look.

Alternators was the first "updated G1" line.

Back then, we were getting those toys from a Hasbro team who made it very clear that they didn't give a flip about making faithful recreations of characters' classic iconic looks, "because kids in the 2000s don't care about designs from the 1980s". Now that we have a new team that does go out...

I mean, we're gonna be getting a Prime Knock Out who looks more a red Jazz than Prime Knock Out proper. It would appear that, this time around, Hasbro is simply content to not recreate the Prime character designs in as faithful a manner as they do for the G1/G2/BW characters.

Their names are "Miyamoto Usagi" and "Yuichi Usagi", and ZakuConvoy just said that "Miyamoto" is the former Usagi's surname, meaning "Yuichi" would be the surname of the latter Usagi, so no not the same surname.

You're not wrong about Bulkhead. The general consensus seems to be that it's a very good toy, but a very poor representation of Prime Bulkhead.

No one's mentioned this yet, but the capital city on Mars, Ma'aleca'andra, is one big C.S. Lewis reference. In his novel Out of the Silent Planet, the native inhabitants of Mars refer to their planet by the name of "Malacandra". "Ma'aleca'andra" is a "DC Mars-ification" of that name like how...

So basically, Usagi's cousin is also named "Usagi", just with a different surname.

"Yuichi Usagi"... Having never actually looked it up, I always thought that "Miyamoto" was Usagi's surname and that everyone was just speaking full name in Japanese "surname first, given name second" format. The Turtles referring to him as "Usagi" so casually in both the 2003 and 2012 cartoons...

You shouldn't have taken that left turn at Albuquerque.

Oh, you have NO idea how well this idea has worked for the Thrilling 30 Springer mold: http://www.cheetimus.com/2013/12/voyager-drift.html http://www.cheetimus.com/2014/06/aoe-triple-changer-drift.html http://www.cheetimus.com/2014/07/triple-changer-drift-ver2.html...
