    Reimagining Quintessons

    Cyberverse season 3 certainly went about reimagining the Quintessons to an extent never before seen by any other media that had ever used them.

    Reasons why Grandus should be the next titan

    Hmm, then it's very possible it could have been Ctenosaur. Their name was always in the series logo during the theme song opening. Their subs were also yellow.

    Reasons why Grandus should be the next titan

    In all honesty, he's really not very tall. Star Convoy was the tallest of the group. Grandus is more stocky and stout: He's certainly big when compared to the Micromasters, since he's meant to be a baseformer designed for Micromaster interactivity. But when compared to normal-sized Autobot...

    Reasons why Grandus should be the next titan

    I could be wrong. How long ago was it? Mainly by Artemis and Moon, since they were the only ones who knew its name at that point in the show.

    We don't have enough Optimus Prime figures

    There's a whole thread devoted to the many Optimus Prime rereleases (and, strangely, Siege Jetfire) we're getting this year.

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

    And it wasn't even supposed to be taken so seriously, either. It was supposed to be someting akin to Star Trek technobabble, quantum gobbledygook that only the TransTechs cared about because they're so far above all other lifeforms, and to which lower lifeforms (like ourselves) don't give a...

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

    The way people were misusing the system was that so many who latched onto it thought that each and every stream designation denoted a single unique universe. Yet, the Japanese dub of the G1 cartoon's first two seasons, The Headmasters cartoon, the Masterforce cartoon, the Japanese dub of Beast...

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    Likely another case of the "realism" Hasbro was pushing for due to the success of the first movie.

    She couldn't help it. She was feeling a little blue that day.

    Reasons why Grandus should be the next titan

    Rumor has it he's coming. It's less of a character-named combo like we're used to with other Optimus Prime combiners, and more of a battle formation; the Triple-Combination: "Battlestar Attack".

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    Since they seemed unwilling to use Movieverse molds (particularly the ones whose designs were shared in ownership by Paramount/ILM), Evac was the only Earth helicopter mold Hasbro had available at the time, a time where Hasbro cared little for show-accuracy or even 1980s design faithfulness, and...

    Reasons why Grandus should be the next titan

    Ah, the old days of Ctenosaur Video. The progenitors of such fansubbing flubs as "Angromoa" (Angolmois), "Combat Drone" (Combatron), "MazinZarak" (Majin Zarak), and leaving "Manzai combi" untranslated. Yeah, Grandus has a combination of sorts with both Star Convoy and Sky Garry, so a new...

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    I bet that fact is also why Universe 2008 gave us the helicopter-only Springer from the Evac mold, to balance out the fact that the BotCon figure was a car-only Springer.

    Transformers 40th Anniversary music releases: G1, Beast Wars, and Beast Machines!

    Aw man, they used the wrong opening theme. The one in this playlist is the shortened version for the Power Block airings of Season 1, which cut the theme song length in half.

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

    I picked one up a few years ago at the final RoboCon. His colors look like Beast Wars Sky Shadow.

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    Springer's also likely a much more popular character for being more recognizable. Springer, the Wrecker, and his posse... the Bouncers.

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

    Yeah. That's why he was an Ultra, too. Cuz "A10s aren't tiny." That toy was a definite victim of the movieverse mindset. And yet, during the same time, the same Hasbro team gave us the bizarre Primal Prime-colored Universe Leo Prime. 🤪 Funnily enough, when DOTM gave us the Cyberverse...
