I think he was just referring MIA figures in general, not specifically studio series. EDIT: Also I think it might be time to retire the studio series name as a "only the movies" kind of thing. Once they let in "game studios" it makes no sense to not let in "tv studios."

I prefer RAD. He's here to tell you about the Traaaaaaansformers!

It's probably because nearly all of those agencies aren't terribly interesting in and of themselves. Sometimes you get an interesting character, like Silas, but overall, they're treated as interchangable because they basically are.

It's a problem of scale. If the Transformers fight is just a handful of bots beating the crap out of each other in a city, that's bad but not world ending. Likewise whatever random shootout between Cobra and GI Joe probably isn't going to hit the radar of the Transformers However, if...

Revolution came out in 2016, in the middle of the MCU hypetrain when EVERYONE was chasing a shared universe. (And nearly every one crashed and burned) I don't really see the Hasbroverse as anything more than an extension of that idea, IDW thinks people love seeing stuff they recognize cross...

Been thinking about building a shelf for the '86 movie, so I'm probably getting Galvatron. Hatchet is just such a weird figure that I have to get him. (How many times have we gotten "vehicle that turns into animal" in this franchise? Alternators Ravage?)

I could see lightening the purple a touch, but why is this Galvatron blue?

Also this thing is nearly two feet long. I can't imagine how heavy (and expensive) die-cast would make it.

One thing to note about IDW is that when it started, there WAS no toyline. In 2005 we were still in the middle of Cybertron and Classics wouldn't be out for another year. When they had Simon Furman sit down and concept out a new take on G1, it was with the implicit idea that there was no...

The TFwiki has a page for them that assembled some summaries of the marketing material. https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Titan_Master

Speak of the devil, apparently they're reissuing Scorponok. https://www.hasbropulse.com/product/transformers-generations-war-for-cybertron-earthrise-titan-wfce25-scorponok/E76725L00

Scorponok might have been an Earthrise release, but he's compatible with the Titan Master system, still, right?

Mirage was hunting turbofoxes in his character bio back in 1984.

Yeah, you're always supposed to make the tease for the next thing the mid-credits stinger and then have the funny one be at the end.

Yeah, if I needed a Bee, I'd grab that and paint the eyes. I don't even paint, and I would still paint those eyes.

I wouldn't have expected a lot of crossover between American Football fans and Taylor Swift, but here we are. Is there a vehicle associated with Football? At this point they could do the Oscar Meyer Weinermobile and say it was NFL related and I'd just shrug and say "If you say so." And then...

That's a mental difference, not a physical one.

Technically, the smaller "IDW" Prime is kind of a made up figure. He was never a data archivist in IDW, and he was forged as a beefy dude, rather than getting upgraded by the Matrix. So basically there's no physical difference between Pax and Prime in IDW, IIRC.

Well, Starscream got captured before he could have gotten his throat repaired (rememebr, this is a franchise where throat damage can leave you permanently mute) so, narratively, threre's your answer. The real reason is it's a reference to the original Starscream's voice.

The violence in the movie is kind of weird. Like, they'll cut away from some of the more violent kills But also show Pax shredding a Death Tracker, and It just seems incongruit with each other that. Almost like they had a limited amount of robot carnage they could show and had to pick...
