Now that you said that, Lio-Convoy and Big Convoy need MP releases.

My sister loved this toy growing up I know this mold had two more different color variants (I want the green one but no luck.)

It’s one of the few things that I feel confident enough to engage in trivia warfare over. My knowledge gets a little weak when it comes to the more recent series (RID2015 and Cyberverse). That’s honestly because I don’t really care to know anything. Those series aren’t made for me but I don’t think they are terrible because NOT G1.

I think the last TF series I watched Was Prime/Beast Hunters. Which was like 2011? 2013? Somewhere around there.

I don’t remember much of it. I remember liking it though. :woman_shrugging:t3:

Same here. I wasn’t really a fan of Prime at the start (particularly because of Cullen’s wooden performance) but it grew on me. That show really brought home how Hugo Weaving was terribly cast as Megatron given Welker’s more grounded take on the character.

I tried to watch the Machinima show (Prime Wars Trilogy) and it was complete ass. I got through Combiner Wars and was upset that I wasted my time. I didn’t go back to Titans Return or Power of the Primes. The only good thing about that series was the voice of Megatron (Jason Monarcha). He made the role his own and did a great job doing it.

Have you had a chance to read the IDW comics yet? I’ve heard they’re really, really good. I have all the hardcover collections they’ve released so far in amazon wishlist. Just my comic backlog is so huge and lack of money.

388

I haven’t . . . . . yet. I got the Humble Bundle a while back and intend to see what I am missing and then give it a go.

  • MTMTE: TPB Vol 1-6
  • MTMTE Issues 34-37
  • Dark Cybertron Vol 1-2
  • RID TPB Vol 1-6
  • RID Issues 33-34

Those bundles come around every 5-6 months. I am sure it’s due sometime soon.

I’ve only seen

G1
BW
RID 2001
Animated

Comics:
Furmans Marvel US (56-80) G1 and G2(1-12,)
Last Stand of the Wreckers (IDW)

I tried reading some of the Costa run circa 2010 but the art was weird mixing Bay and G1 design and th story didn’t hold my attention

390

To be honest, I actually liked Fig’s artwork with that aesthetic.

391

Of the 3 Nissan Brothers in G1 ,who do you prefer?

Prowl,Bluestreak,or Smokescreen

This can be either toy cartoon, comic or all versions.

392

Easy, Prowl. Had a more active role in the toon plus was one of the more interesting add ons to a combiner team in the lore.

This is a bit superficial but Bluestreak.

I like his color scheme the best.

394

I mean, how awesome is it to have a name that clearly goes against your color scheme, but it works anyway.

I’m excited, but Takara’s promo team needs to learn how to pose stuff.

396

In terms of character? Prowl.

Looks/altmode? Bluestreak.

Did Takara come to their senses, or is this guy still priced $300-$400? Cause, no. Just no. I’d never buy that just on principal.

Especially with these recent, awesome, 3rd party MP-44’s for a fraction of the price and cool in their own right.

HELL YES!!!

The beast mode looks strange because it’s in a 3D space, but it’s accurate to the anime. I am all in for this. Big Convoy has to happen.
