If you're going for a multi-changer mold for Amalgamous, I'd point out that we're due for a CR/RiD Mega/Galva/Gigatron to go with Omega Prime.

I'd lean into TF One Bumblebee's line about there being a lot of _____waves and make all the highest-ranking Decepticons be named as such. Soundwave's in charge of Intelligence. Shockwave for Science & Engineering. Tidal Wave for the Space & Naval corps. Laserwave (maybe with an Animated Longarm...

It was a bit later for me. I had heard of Allspark, but I had previously joined TFW during the days when they were merged with Transfandom. I don't like to move around much, even online, so I stayed there until I think around 2010. At that point, I was trying to kill some time on a slow day at...

Now all I can think of is imagining a debate between Mayor Pete and Mayor Galvatron. :ROFLMAO: I think the big difference is that there was a lot of love for the character in Roberts's take. Rodimus was the butt of a lot of jokes, but virtually every character in Roberts's books were the butt...

As late as 2009? Have we already forgotten? I mean, I can't say I'd blame anyone who really wants to block it out, but I think it's one of those things that must never be forgotten, lest we allow history to repeat itself. Already way too much of that happening.

Armada isn't part of my childhood, being the first line to debut when I was an independent adult, just days after I started my career. But since we're talking about it.. My Armada Optimus trailer always worked fine... if I could get it to trigger. Doing so kinda killed the fun of transforming...

I certainly felt the lack of articulation when I was a kid. It wasn't the end of the world, but it's a big part of why I really don't have a ton of nostalgia for G1 toys. I have plenty of nostalgia for the characters, and have a probably-too-large collection of modern figures, but I set aside...

I don't have any more He-Man pajamas or Care Bears sheets, though. 😆

Finding those Unicron pics made me want to go digging. I found a few other old pictures. Some very, very old... Christmases in the 80s. Clearly, I was on the Decepticons' side right from the start. :LOL: A few pics from the early 2000s: I'm still disappointed they never made a...

He's got the whole world in his hands... I'd forgotten I took these pictures back when Unicron first arrived. Just came across them again a bit ago.

Everybody is Shockwave... who was retooled from Silverbolt. Now, 10 points to anyone who can explain the fact that Silverbolt was really Shockwave in disguise.

I actually like all the lore, and how it's not at all consistent. I mean, that's mythology in a nutshell. E.g. you can't make a definitive list of all the Greek gods, which ones are considered to be the 12 Olympians, who's descended from who, who was aligned with who, who did what feats, etc...

She would be referred to as such by Octopunch, who would have a Jamaican accent. 😝

If I were Blast Off, I would NOT trust any O-ring sourced from Swindle...

It is definitely their weapons rather than the partner bots, but it does look like some sort of head augmentation to me. With the camera angle in those images, if it were just the weapons pegged on their backs, you'd expect them to be offset relative to the head. But in those images, it...

It seems very odd that he'd otherwise be a very faithful Star Convoy, but with a PMOP torso. I'll wait to actually see the toy, rather than make any conclusions based on some blurry box art. We've certainly seen plenty of cases of box art not being all that representative of the actual product...

It's the classic combiner size conundrum. Combiners are explicitly shown in fiction to be much more than the sum of their components - literally, when it comes to size. Combiner bots clearly mass shift to a great degree when they combine. How else could you possibly have a bot that's smaller...

I like that, even though Megatronus is primarily based on his initial Dreamwave design, he at least pulls in influences from other versions via his weapons. He's got the Requiem Blaster from PotP, with a barrel and arm-mounted like the CoP design. Then he has his sword/spear thing from RiD...

I'm just thankful my Monstructor's still mostly intact. There's a crack on Bristleback's legs, but it's not causing any real problems yet. I fear it's just a matter of time before it splits completely. I'm really amazed since I'm pretty sure I remember tightening the screws on Slog back in the...

How do we define MIA at this point? E.g. Windcharger has had multiple updates, including as recently as PotP. He just hasn't had a WfC/Legacy/AotP/SS86 update. (Side note, we need a good term for this era.) If we're only talking bots who have never had any CHUG-style update, and ignoring ones...
