    The Taxonomy of Toy-Based Fiction, or a further look at Continuity Families

    Which Episode 16 also confirmed was just fanservice and that that "flashback" wasn't a completely accurate depiction of all the events that happened in it. ;) Man, I wish Keith David had used his Goliath voice for Grimlock. Was so looking forward to that, and was a little let down when he just...

    Batman: Caped Crusader coming August 1

    No, I said the Batman Begins version was just the most recognizable version. The link I included said which comic issue he originated from, Batman #404 (February 1987).

    Post Pictures of your Transformers, Let's see 40 years worth of Transformers!

    Think of it like "Terran" is to "Autobot" as "Maltobot" is to "any number of Autobot subfactions like the Autobot Cars, the Dinobots, the Jumpstarters, etc." Like, Aftermath and Spitfire are both Terrans, but not Maltobots since they rejected joining the Malto family.

    What about Robby and Mo? They received mini-figures of themselves, too.

    Reimagining Quintessons

    Meanwhile, over in Japan, Unicron's whole schtick was never about consuming the universe, but dominating it. His eating Lithone and Cybertron's moons in the movie was more about asserting his dominance and doing whatever he pleases than any distaste for life itself. But, in contrast to how...

    Transformers: EarthSpark

    Only if it is a new cartoon. We still don't really know much of anything about it.

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    This is also probably why Takara opted not to adapt the 1988 Targetmaster toys into the Masterforce fiction. With how Transtectors were depicted in that series as being lifeless bodies stuck in vehicle mode whenever their human operators weren't attached to them, just imagine how silly that...

    Batman: Caped Crusader coming August 1

    Another character design that looked familiar to me was that of Rupert Thorne, who looked to me like an animated version of the late great Charles Napier (circa the 1990s).

    Reimagining Quintessons

    Yes indeed. In a nutshell, the Aligned lore treated the Quints as aliens who came to Cybertron in its infancy, pretended to be benevolent innovators who taught the Cybertronians how to transform into altmodes (an ability that was already built into their superstructures, but the Quints lied to...

    Reimagining Quintessons

    I mean, it's not like attempts to reconcile the two hadn't happened prior to Quintus's conception. The first of these reconciliations happened as far back as 2004:

    Reimagining Quintessons

    Granted, the Quintesson creation origin predated both Primus and sparks as concepts by a number of years.

    If I had to guess, I say the reason Takara released the Thundertron mold in the Japanese Prime line as Leo Prime in the first place was because they didn't want to release the Thundertron character in the line since he was part of a third faction that, by that point, was clearly not going to be...

    Really Useful: A Thomas the Tank Engine thread

    Super late to this but the Awdry Extravaganza 4 took past last month on the 20-21 of July at the Talyllyn Railway in Wales. Here's the announcement trailer from beforehand: Here's a brief recap of the event (yes, those are cosplayers dressed as the Thin Controller, Sir Robert Norramby, and...

    Arnold Flass, probably best known by modern audiences as the crooked cop Batman interrogates during the "Swear to ME!" scene from Batman Begins.

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    It did always feel so dumb to me how "The Rebirth" presented the Headmaster partnership as the Nebulans shouting commands and advice from inside the Autobots' heads on how to defeat the Hive's machines, when said advice and commands just boiled down to "Punch and shoot the darn things really...
