I’m doing an update! For realsies. Just… not yet. Because it’s not Monday! Obviously! Oh crap… Well, I guess this IS the update for Monday! I’m currently in the middle of forcing furniture where it won’t fit. Er, don’t let a weird image get into your head, I’m moving some stuff in my home office, but due to awkward circumstances involving scorpions, employment, and uh… well, a LOT of scorpions I have possession of some fancy new stuff… in addition to a bunch of my… Continue reading →

This magnificent video take all the genius and majestic film crafting talent Michael Bay put into all three entries in his Magnum Opus of movies, The Transformers Trilogy, and sums it up into a few moments of awe-inspiring brilliance. It touches on Bay’s firm grasp of comedy, use of strong female leads, easily conveyed plot points and his flattering appearance of the men and women that serve in our armed forces today. Watch the video for yourself and try –JUST TRY– to not come away… Continue reading →

Transformers: Prime First Edition to see promised re-release domestically? Don’t hold your breath.

Hasbro still doesn't care for your desire for things.

It’s a really fucking stupid name for the line because it seems to imply that we’ll see more when it’s hard enough to see the first line AT ALL. Also, why a retail toyline needed a preview, FOR A RETAIL TOYLINE, I still don’t understand. I’d expected Hasbro to phone the first wave in entirely with cheap plastic, lousy molds and then repackage them into something else. Sadly, Hasbro followed that dickhead logic to the letter… just in the opposite direction. In one of the… Continue reading →

Still slightly backlogged on the Botcon news. I’ve only got a few more left on the event and it should be wrapped up by the end of the this week. Unless it isn’t, in which case I’ll just be abusing you with Botcon rantings until I see fit. AND YOU’RE GONNA LIKE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Um… anyway… You know what sucked? Hasbro’s shitty ban on 3rd Party goods at a convention meant to promote the Transformers brand, yet had the corporate stink of a strange new draconian… Continue reading →

This is a Hug-worthy announcement. Kind of. Hasbro has announced something that holds the potential to break the seething tide of hatred their antics have earned them from folks like myself. And no, it’s not hookers, free camaros or candy. It’s a paid toy subscription! YAY!!! Oh… uh, yay. A collector’s subscription service, where subscribers receive unique Transformers figures regularly as part of the service. Mattel did something similar with MattyCollector, a service that was brutally criticized for its brazen and abusive methods of squeezing… Continue reading →

Transformers: Someone thought it would be cool to make the Throttlebots cool!

Let’s face it, when it comes to Transformers and people ask about big piles of suck from back in the good old days Throttlebots tend to gurgle pretty high up. What are the Throttlebots, you ask? Is this some sort of robot kink thing? No… Not really. Throttlebots were a strong sign of good ideas going downhill and a theme that eventually suffocated the line outside of Japan until Generation 2 and Beast Wars. They showed up in the “rebirth” miniseries that murdered the original… Continue reading →

Botcon: Shoving dead characters in your face with wanton abandon! The gruesome Exclusive!

Spoiler alert! Well… not really, since this hideous fact is being celebrated in plastic immortality… In Transformers: Prime the Autobot known as Cliffjumper dies in the very first episode. Brutally. This has made him crazy popular amongst the fandom and in our sick fetish for dead robots, we have howled for more Cliffjumper stiff in his very dead absence. For a dead dude he gets A LOT of figures, which is strange since we’re still waiting on primary characters in the show to get the… Continue reading →

Botcon: Invasion boxed set UNLEASHED! Also some updates

So it took a bit because those filthy animals at Botcon are probably having fun or some nonsense at convention about toys, selling toys and talking about toys. TFormers seems to be the place to look while Botcon is happening, let me suggest some points of interest. Jerks. Anyway, looks like a generous soul created a makeshift studio out of some hotel sheets and we have some rather clear images of the Invasion boxed set. Included in the Invasion set are Metalhawk, Gigatron, Evil Ultra… Continue reading →

Botcon: It’s here! *sigh* Still can’t make it…

Botcon is a fickle thing for me. When I can afford it, I can never make it and when I can’t afford it I don’t go. Some fans have been kind enough to assist in hooking me up with stuff though and selling off some of the preciouses in my collection actually allowed me access to the finer things in collecting life, like the fancy foam-padded exclusives in their fancy artbox cases. They’re fancy. This year is a year of mixed feelings and apprehension given… Continue reading →

Transformers: RunBros are Complete or… En Route at least!

Caked-Up is a nice guys that likes to show off his toys and he has a pretty nifty setup to do just that. Anyway, remember when I went batshit over toys? No, I don’t mean last week, I mean a few months ago during the, now infamous, Runabout/SG Drift scandal that opened up the year and Hasbro’s Transformers Collector’s Club to criticism. I managed to sell off enough of my precious toys to afford Over-run/Runabout and I was crazy pissed with the overall ineptitude of… Continue reading →
