TFARCHIVE FORUMS

Except, of course, that Princess Leia was about 1000x more "kick ass" then Arcee. iirc Leia has a higher shot:hit ratio then Han and Luke during the film and managed to resist two types of torture. Arcee just kinda fired a few shots, ran around, and kept Daniel alive. Well, to be fair to ...

I've never heard that tidbit before. What exactly do you mean? Going from my old man's memory from a Susan Blu interview, without Arcee the casting for TF:TM would have been 100-percent male , which was an absolute no-no. (To back this up a little bit, I've also heard from some Hollywood directors ...

maybe they got pressured into it? gender equality and all... after all that is one of the Arcee's origin >.> its clear that Arcee wasnt there to sell toys.. Arcee's inclusion in 1985 was a mix of both union casting rules for TF:TM and that Sunbow was just seriously aping Star Wars and needed their ...

Seriously, guys? In an effort to make sure Thatcher and Churchill remain defamed, you're going to rehabilitate The Nazi Regieme? Really, there's not much room left for discussion at that point...

Not sure a close equivalent is possible in a similar frame, unless instigated by religious nutters with unprecedented support or a significant collapse of Western civilisation. People are a lot less inclined to die because of political cluster****s and concepts such as national borders. Succeed in ...

I can't really get into all this celebrating crap, mind. Whether you liked her or not it's been 20 years since she was anything other than an old retired woman. If someone thinks she did damage there's no cause to cheer because the damage was long done (typically when the people celebrating were si...

From my 'outsiders' study of history, I think the main problem with all the people demonizing Thatcher is that they forgot what was going on in the UK before her - just like how so many people who now think it's fashionable to demonize Reagan forgot what the 1970s were like...

Currently rewatching Beast Machines now... Enjoying it an awful lot more than the first time I saw it. Yes it has some whacked out concepts, and Nightscream is just a horrible character from design through to voice, but overall it's pretty damn good. I've probably analyzed Beast Machine's failures ...

Very good. Glad it came out well.

This may probably be more work than you wanted to do for this, but could you do me a big favor and try using the glpyh from the "Optimus" font? ( http://pixelsagas.com/viewfont.php?fontid=59 ) This has my most updated version of the Autobot insignia.

The old one was from a Reprolabels image but came out a bit blurry, this one's from font — i.e. originally vector. I might pixel edit it when I get chance. I'd have said it was stoic, though. Hmm.. it's the eyes being bigger there that throws it. It's more accurate to G1, but I see the point. The '...

And if they decide to dip into the Minibot assortment they'd have a bevy of other easily-repaintable toys there too. Though in-scale Masterpiece Minibots would be around Deluxe-size, wouldn't they? Trickier. While it would be true for Bumblebee, Cliffjumper, Hubcap, the rest of the minibots are a l...

In theory they'd get more than enough mileage out of the main year one Autobot cars as well through repaints, I think Hound is the only one who doesn't have at least one "Proper" character reuse (though in the world of Masterpiece Acidstorm who knows what they could come up with), even Ja...

Don't get your hopes up though, they're probably going to be Power Rangers-esque big, chunky, gimmicky and scarcely articulated bots. I don't know if I could say that. Sticking to BW2, BWN, and even Car Robots as examples, the small number of new molds in the lines weren't too bad. BW2 gave us Lio ...

Could well be; but at the same time Asia has got 'exclusive' moulds from both Animated and DotM now; it's not impossible these were intended for both sides of the Pacific but Hasbro just aren't interested, especially as Prime - like those two lines - just doesn't seem to be shifting a huge amount o...

It's more than plausible. Though the idea of Cybertron trilogy toys being used as old filler just makes me feel... well old. Nine years now.. which I admit is very weird to think about. Again, I've got really no idea on this, but I would be incredibly surprised at a quintet of new-mold figures bein...

In a bit of weirdness Japan has announced that the first ten figures of their new TF:Go line will NOT match up from Hasbro's Beast Hunters line directly. They're going to do something different presumably to both pad out the line as well as to get more toys on the shelves while waiting for Beast Hun...

Well, we could talk about sadonercroequinality.. but...

Damn you and your desire to exterminate with puns!
