Not to be too critical, but the image stabilization could use some work too. The video image bounces up and down a lot.

It looks good though. It's pretty neat to see that Power Master Optimus Prime in animation.

GOD old animation in full HD (and beyond in this case) always looks so fuckin gorgeous.

We really lost something when traditional animation transitioned to digital ink and paint IMO.

The Super-God Masterforce reel wasn't the only print i got captured for the site. I was also able to get a capture of the Transformers The Movie Trailer and a Generation 2 theatrical promo from 35mm prints which will also be uploaded to the YT channel to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the franchise. First up is the Transformers The Movie Trailer which will be premiering on Saturday at 8pm GMT.

I always found it funny that because Megatron wasn't around at the launch of G2, they picked Ramjet of all people. Not even Starscream. Kinda wild this has never been referenced again. It'd be funny if Ramjet started thinking he was Optimus' rival when Optimus barely even thinks of Ramjet at all.

Also when I was checking release dates on the TF wiki I noticed this:

An unusual promotional tie-in[1] saw theatrical ads for the toyline run in front of holiday movies starting at the end of November; attendees were given a promotional pamphlet with a coupon for $2 off Optimus Prime that expired on December 31st, 1992.

..."theatrical"...?

Anyone remember seeing this before any movies? I sure don't. Someone in the comments mentioned Home Alone 2, though.
Nope, but it does say coming to theaters this November on it. Plus I was 5 at the time, so I don't remember the movie at all until it came out on VHS.

He was asking about the Generation 2 promo.

As far as G2 goes, it didn't exist around here. Like no shows and no toys. The only thing that I know that did pop up here was the G2 Comic.

My earliest G2 media was a... I want to say it was a puzzle, but it's been so long, I'm not even sure.

It was the kids meal giveaway at the Walmart Snack Bar (back before they started selling those spaces to McDonald's), and I can't find a picture of it online. I don't know whether Google and searches have just become that useless, or if it's really that obscure.

Sadly, I think mine was with all my Marvel G1 and G2 comics when they were tossed.

I remember seeing G2 toys at the store back in the late 80's/early 90's, but I had already made the transition to GI Joe at the time and wasn't collecting Transformers. Didn't get back into Transformers until Beast Wars.
