I guess she just wasn't Geewun enough for Titans Return.

That's fair. Although, Jim admitted that a lot of the ideas he came up with for his virtual Season 2 were deliberate riffs on common plots/tropes of 80s Saturday morning cartoons/Hanna Barbera cartoons, so he was definitely being genre-savvy when he wrote those particular ones. ;)

In a way, energy seems to have been at the heart of nearly every war in Transformers. G1 cartoon and Marvel comics: Decepticons want energy resources to empower themselves. The Headmasters: Decepticons plunder worlds of their energy to empower themselves. Super-God Masterforce: Devil Z is a...

Lemme guess. You returned a VHS tape to the library without rewinding, again.

But can they see why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch?

That is very much like the kind of twisted backwards logic I would expect Fun Pub to come up with for a SG color scheme. Only this time it wasn't Fun Pub. 🤪

The Touch was created for the Sylvester Stallone movie Cobra. TFTM only got it after it was turned down from Cobra.

Sadly, all these months later and still no sign or rumor of any EarthSpark Tarantulas toy.

Was just thinking of that.

No, I meant that they were first created during the years when TF: Prime was the main series in Japan that Takara was focusing on the most, meaning Takara likely had Primes on the brain at that time when they created these guys.
