TFARCHIVE FORUMS

Autorooper makes for a nice 'bot. I'll restate my ever present hope this comes to the US as an Alternator.
That extraneous fleshling, though...her head looks too doughy for her body frame. :(

I certainly hope Rodimus comes over as an Alternator, only with flames on the hood instead of the stripe.
As for the fleshling, bleh. Makes me glad there's Alternators.

Thundercracker looks like he stepped in Trypticon's chewing gum.

Fascinating design. It's probably from early on in the conceptual drawings stage, so the likelihood of any of this design's robot mode reaching the final draft is negligible. I agree with Wildrider; it would make for a good start on Apeface, but not Starscream.

But he is a Triple Changer. He transforms from robot to space shuttle to some bot's trousers (training pants?). Of course, being someone's lower half is meaningless without an upper half. Quoth TFVanguard: Astrotrain appeared in several episodes in Season III, so that's still fair game. The problem ...

Quoth Warwulf:
Does anyone remember the old Transformers: Find Your Fate books?

Yes. I still have all nine. Somewhere.

Quoth Ford DeceptiFocus:
Are these like the old Choose Your Own Advetures kids' books from the 1980's?

That is exactly what the "Find Your Fate" books are.

Quoth Nevermore: There will be a time, very far into the future, when a thread that somehow touches the topic of an attractive real-life woman will not get any "I would do her" or "does she come with the toy?" responses. I'm really looking forward to that day. :) I agree with yo...

I wonder what this Megatron's story is supposed to be. His alt mode suggests post-Earth-arrival.

Quoth inflatable dalek:
Go UK! Though is Prowl mistransformed or just a shortarse?

That's the hobbit version of the reissue.

Seriously, they forgot to extend the legs.

Transformers KISS sounds like a bizarre take on the Transformers multiverse. Might be good, might be absolutely idiotic. I doubt it would fly in the US, though. We like our Transformers to be war machines, not love machines (as long as we ignore the ravings of rabid fanboys/girls). Quoth Ford Decept...

Quoth Cyberman:
Why does it say "Autobots Matrix"? Shouldn´t it be just "Autobot Matrix".

Perhaps they meant "Autobots' Matrix", but left out the apostrophe.

"Transformers - Atari" sounds like an '80s retro video game series.

Ozaki Yuki

Who's he? If he's being touted as part of "Transformers - Atari", perhaps knowing what he's done in the past will provide a clue as to what the line is supposed to be about.

Quoth Nevermore: Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Savage/Noble actually Megatron? Quoth Ford DeceptiFocus: I'm not quite finished with disc 3 of the 4 Beast Machines set (I just bought it), but I'm up to the part where Savage/Noble is now a separate entity--and entirely organic. Basically he's M...

Quoth TFVanguard: Don't MAKE me get the DVD.... again... *sigh* Beat you to it. :) I doublechecked before I made my last post. Yeah, but the UK comic only followed the comic adaption, and there's a few other minor niggling differences. Comic adaptations tend to be laughable. The comics writers are ...

I have to agree with chimung. This recolor is a bit of a disappointment, even though a super-powered-up Prime with planet key tattoos isn't that surprising.

Quoth TFVanguard: But, you seem to think that I'm upset that Alt's isn't G1, I'm not. In fact, I think that limiting Alts like that is a huge mistake. An Alt Hot Shot, Scourge, etc, would be a GOOD move for Hasbro. Who said I thought you were upset? :) You explicitly do see him in the command tower...

Quoth TFVanguard" I gave up on Alts being a G1 story since.. oh, I dunno, it's 2006 and most of the characters from then would be dead now. :) Oh, yeah, and Ravage.. there's that. :) Well, which Binaltech / Alternators characters are supposed to be dead in the G1 cartoon continuity? Wheeljack ...

Fascinating. Cybertron Skywarp is more like G1 Skywarp than Armada Skywarp.
Perhaps Runabout, Longrack, Blurr, and Buzzsaw are not the only G1/BW continuity characters to have "crossed over".

Quoth Ford DeceptiFocus: Interesting question about whether Beast Wars is a separate license. I wouldn't think it is. My GUESS is that it's one license under "Transformers" but their contract stipulates how many series they can produce under that license and which ones. Just a guess thoug...

Quoth TFVanguard: Ugh... I really wish it could have been Scourge instead. Because, if they did, we'd all be complaining that he wasn't blue, had the wrong head sculpt, and didn't look at all like a hovercraft. G1 Scourge was not even close to an evil Optimus Prime. "Nemesis Prime" is a P...
