Mirage finally showed us what it could have been like if Bumblebee had been allowed to have a voice from the get-go. But, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, Spielberg wanted another E.T.!

No it isn't.

It's not the same term, though. Ultra Magnus's "City Commander" title in Japanese is just the English "City Commander" written in Katakana: シティコマンダー (Shiti Komandā).* The Town Commanders are instead 町の司令官 (Machi no Shireikan), which more literally means "Town's Commander" or "Commander of the...

1980s Saturday morning cartoon villains could never do anything truly heinous or frightening due to U.S. television censors keeping a close watchful eye on everything going on in those shows at the time.

It's probably due to Nightshade having scanned not an actual owl but a statue of one. So, technically, Nightshade's altmode is merely an owl-shaped rock. ;) Waitaminute! That's means Nightshade's a Rock Lord! 🤓

I expected him to attack a Burger King instead.

Oh boy oh boy oh boy!

How many of us does he have on Ignore?

Everything you talk about following this line was all post-Next Mutation. I was talking about at the time when Next Mutation was still new, which was during the era of the much-reviled Power Rangers Turbo. AFTER that is when Saban got a sudden jolt of quality. The PRIS crossover ep debuted after...

Someone at Hasbro has a great sense of humor:

I only brought it up in the first place because tec's toy list included the original Tonka toys.

According to this report, among the many revisions made to the final version of the film, apparently Scourge was originally supposed to be a much more sympathetic villain being forced to serve Unicron...

Sadly, buffoonery seem to be the very thing that Saban loved having for most villain characters in shows they made for kids, live action or animated. At least, at that time.

No, the toy was made first. The comics rebuilt Megatron into his tank body because of the toy. The comic advertised the toy, not the other way around.

There's always the Pepsi Convoy deco to try.

Don't worry. The wiki will never fully cover the Bandai/Tonka molds, the Hanna-Barbera cartoon, etc. We made GBWiki for all that. ;)

You know good and well that one in-joke-filled book about Transformers Animated, and a bunch of in-joke-filled posts on a Fun Pub-run Facebook page, aren't enough to legally declare a ton of Bandai-made toys from the 1980s that were never owned by or licensed to Hasbro/Takara official...
