EXACTLY!

At a certain point I think we have to ignore their protestations that this is all still the Prime timeline, because that's more ludicrous than the alternative. With that in mind, I'd say the future isn't constant either.

Just because he fills time during the video asking for opinions doesn't mean it hasn't been decided or at least narrowed down to a very short list. I think the only thing to really take away from that is they may get some confirmation for the decision they've already made. Bear in mind, the...

The alternative is either going full MCU and saying everything we've known of Trek has been in alternative timelines. I'd argue that takes away some of the "magic" of the show which is that the collective "we" will eventually make it to that point. It undoes the hopefulness. Or go full James...

Yeah - they have a ton of stuff!

Ah nice - sounds like I'm just late to the party.

So yeah - guess it's "complicated". Just another discontinuity of the new Trek that's totally in the same universe as TOS wink, wink. (Which I've grown to be ok with)

Hasbro is dropping hints about the next Haslab - all signs point to the Ghost (hopefully TVC)! The Aurabesh translation: Ship Diagnostics Complete. Laser Cannon Turrets, Ready Forward Cannons, Ready Rear Cannons, Ready

Not sure if it's been pointed out, but for those of you with a Roku device, there is a dedicated Transformers channel (432 on mine). It appears to show about all US Tf cartoons, and just cycle through the various shows in episode order and in 1 or 2 hour blocks. You can also stream online...

It's not an excuse, it's physics. Every Transformer we've ever had makes sacrifices; some get very close in both modes, but there are sacrifices nonetheless. MP-44 is the closest converting, animation-accurate Prime to date. His truck mode is really good, but not exact. Alternators Optimus Prime...

Well I thought that was a great episode: another classic Star Trek trope but managed in a slightly different way. Plus, it explains away one of the sources of uh "discourse" we saw in the trailer for the season.

Right? It's actually going to be built around a studio apartment in Soho.

I know they wanted to G1'ify him, but I really wish they'd found a way to better homage his unusual botmode proportions; he just looks so generic.

Yeah - no one is going to confuse the 3P versions as being based on anything more than generic train'ish transportation devices. It's (appropriately enough) like the difference between Earthrise Sideswipe and MP Sideswipe. Earthrise Sideswipe is close enough for most of us but if you're into...

Similar in that they are oblong boxes? :D

That is exactly how Thrasher came up with it. And it was rumored to be inspired at the time by the Mad Max movies (Beyond Thunderdome came out in '85), hence the aesthetic.

"Dreadnoks" Anyway - he is very tempting. That being said, I already have an original Thunder Machine and HISS Megs really bummed me out. Maybe earrings Zarana (the earlier, "prettier" version) might have pushed me over the top, but even then I think I'll pass.

Oh, I still have those thoughts from time to time too. I look around my toy room and think, what else could I have done with this? But then I realize I would have spent it on something else frivolous and repress... er, stop worrying about it.
