    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Very true. Years ago, I used to get an hour lunch break, but as someone that packs a lunch, I was done within about 15 minutes, so I had some time to kill. A couple of times a week, I'd hit Target or Walmart to see what they had. I'd buy 90% of my Transformers on those trips, hardly ever...

    The Mandalorian - streaming on Disney+

    I thought that, too! I'm sure it was done for us, the viewer, to make it obvious that they were clones of Gideon. But generally you don't want your entire super soldier team to have to knock off at 3:30 to be at the restaurant by 4:00 for the early bird special.

    Optimus can come out of the corner when he's ready to apologize.

    I'm surprised he agreed to be on the show. His last experience with puppets did not go well:

    The Mandalorian - streaming on Disney+

    I enjoyed it. Like people said, it was nothing groundbreaking, but it was a fun, Star-Warsy romp. It did feel a lot like a "wrap up all the current storylines and next time we'll do something new" sort of episode, which I'm fine with. Honestly, I'd like it to pick up next season after enough...

    I actually ran across a Motormaster in store. I grabbed him and cancelled my preorder. But that was probably the only time I've ever seen anything larger than a Leader at retail since Toys 'BackwardsR Us closed down.

    This is the correct answer. I was trying to come up with good "Evil Junkion Warlord" names for RotB Scourge last night (since I already have too many dudes named Scourge as it is.) Thinking of maybe Despoil. Good combo of something trash/pollution themed along with being reminiscent of "despot."

    Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    Those slots in the windshield make it look like the VW bus from Pixar's Cars. Otherwise, though, aside from the lack of paint that I would expect from a lower-price version of the character, it's not a bad mold. I still don't really like RotB Wheeljack's face, but I think the design other than...

    Star Trek: The Original Series and The Next Generation

    In her defense, the show wasn't actually that good when she decided to leave. Next Generation really started picking up steam somewhere in season 2 (though still with the occasional clunker episode). And she did return later as a frequent guest star, both as Tasha in "Yesterday's Enterprise"...

    I will never NOT want additional Dinobots, so I'm game.

    Maybe it's just me, but the head/face feels G1-Scourge-y, along with the claws. It's definitely not a 1:1 Scourge by any means, just sort of a "vibe," I guess. The kind of knight-looking head/neck armor and monstery-bits feel a bit like they were inspired by the vampire-like G1 Scourge. But...

    Yeah, he's definitely inspired by both G1 and RID Scourge. Despite not being a huge fan of the general movie aesthetic, I do love this guy. I'm definitely repurposing him as an evil Junkion warlord in my collection, though.

    Star Trek: The Original Series and The Next Generation

    True, I don't have an encyclopedic memory or anything of the show, but it does seem like often times there were discussions of it taking weeks or longer for messages to get to Starfleet Command and back, therefore Kirk had to make his decisions with no guidance from his superiors.

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

    Somehow I hadn't watched through the end of this particular video. It turns out that this is the moment I received my first actual Transformer: Hound. I had always been pretty sure that Hound was the first one, as he was the only 1984 'bot that I had. I had a couple of 1985 Transformers, but...

    People always have that impression of him, but during the original television series, Kirk was always pretty strictly by the book. He really wasn't presented as being a maverick until the films.
