WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.779 You are listening to the Geekcast Radio Network. 00:00:04.160 --> 00:00:07.679 This is Megatron, leader of the Predacons, and 00:00:07.679 --> 00:00:10.019 you're listening to all things Transformers. 00:00:10.859 --> 00:00:40.310 Predacons, terrorize! Hello and welcome to All 00:00:40.310 --> 00:00:42.890 Things Transformers. I'm your host, Steve Megatron, 00:00:42.909 --> 00:00:45.590 and joining me on this adventure into the Transformers 00:00:45.590 --> 00:00:48.850 fandom is TFG1 Mike. Lemon face, lion face, lemon 00:00:48.850 --> 00:00:53.969 face, lion face. Nobody's going to get that joke. 00:00:54.329 --> 00:00:58.469 Not even you are going to get that joke. Nope, 00:00:58.490 --> 00:01:01.909 I'm not going to get that joke. Oh, God. Yeah, 00:01:02.289 --> 00:01:06.069 anyway, it's a performance thing. But yes, we're 00:01:06.069 --> 00:01:13.250 here. Not that performance. We're here. We're 00:01:13.250 --> 00:01:19.090 no longer waiting. It is 2025. We are 41 years 00:01:19.090 --> 00:01:23.129 removed from Transformers debut. We are 40 years 00:01:23.129 --> 00:01:26.950 away from year two of that line and that cartoon 00:01:26.950 --> 00:01:32.359 because the 1985 set of toys was amazing. How 00:01:32.359 --> 00:01:35.420 was your Christmas since we didn't do it? Technically, 00:01:35.420 --> 00:01:38.180 Transformers 1, the DVD commentary, was our Christmas 00:01:38.180 --> 00:01:42.840 episode. Pretty good. I mean, I worked a lot 00:01:42.840 --> 00:01:50.519 of my time off. And then, yeah, I spent the better 00:01:50.519 --> 00:01:52.840 part of it trying to just get a bunch of other 00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:57.120 stuff done. Got vehicle fixed prior to. Got my 00:01:57.120 --> 00:02:00.079 printer back up and running. However, it promptly 00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:05.819 took a dump on me. Oh, no. So I had the the print 00:02:05.819 --> 00:02:09.860 head got gummed up with the filament. And I don't 00:02:09.860 --> 00:02:11.960 know if it's because it like obtained moisture. 00:02:12.080 --> 00:02:15.120 I don't know if it's because this kind just doesn't 00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:20.879 play well. So anyways, it completely fused like 00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:24.780 I could not get the hot end off of the heating 00:02:24.780 --> 00:02:28.300 element, like could not take it off. It had fused 00:02:28.300 --> 00:02:33.580 to it. So your printer became a fusor. Yeah, 00:02:33.599 --> 00:02:35.759 it became a fusor, all right. Nothing was coming 00:02:35.759 --> 00:02:41.599 out of it. That's not good. So I tried to fix 00:02:41.599 --> 00:02:44.560 it. I ended up having to snap that part off. 00:02:45.060 --> 00:02:49.300 I got it off, like, all the way, but then the 00:02:49.300 --> 00:02:55.219 threads were destroyed. And so then I had to 00:02:55.219 --> 00:02:58.449 buy a new hot end. I bought it with the fan and 00:02:58.449 --> 00:03:01.289 all the other stuff because in my irritation, 00:03:01.509 --> 00:03:07.150 I cut the cord to something that needed to stay 00:03:07.150 --> 00:03:09.550 plugged in because I had bought just an upgrade 00:03:09.550 --> 00:03:14.110 for the keating element. And I was going to reuse 00:03:14.110 --> 00:03:16.009 everything else, but I couldn't get it back through 00:03:16.009 --> 00:03:20.969 the corded thing into the underside. So I got 00:03:20.969 --> 00:03:23.969 it all in there, got it all rewired, managed 00:03:23.969 --> 00:03:28.409 to print something with it. somewhat good. Um, 00:03:28.729 --> 00:03:31.969 wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great either, 00:03:32.030 --> 00:03:35.330 but it was the smoothest print I'd had in age. 00:03:36.270 --> 00:03:39.389 And then I moved it from where I was working 00:03:39.389 --> 00:03:41.909 on it, which was in my living room, uh, on a 00:03:41.909 --> 00:03:45.129 table there. And I moved it into my office and 00:03:45.129 --> 00:03:49.090 that's where the issues started up again. Oh 00:03:49.090 --> 00:03:51.770 no. And I messed with it for about two and a 00:03:51.770 --> 00:03:54.050 half hours one night. And then I eventually was 00:03:54.050 --> 00:03:59.060 like, don't care. Done. So I listed that printer 00:03:59.060 --> 00:04:05.219 and I bought a new one. But I got to wait for 00:04:05.219 --> 00:04:06.860 the new one to show up and it's supposed to be 00:04:06.860 --> 00:04:09.159 very automated. It's supposed to be six times 00:04:09.159 --> 00:04:14.039 faster than what I have. It's enclosed so it 00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:15.439 shouldn't have as much of the heating issues. 00:04:15.860 --> 00:04:18.779 It has like an AI detection with a camera so 00:04:18.779 --> 00:04:20.420 it will detect if it's going to go into spaghetti 00:04:20.420 --> 00:04:24.660 mode and then it will abandon the print. without 00:04:24.660 --> 00:04:28.180 me having to babysit it yep which is nice and 00:04:28.180 --> 00:04:33.019 then yeah so i'm waiting for that to show up 00:04:33.019 --> 00:04:35.819 and it it can actually print four colors at a 00:04:35.819 --> 00:04:38.240 time as long as i set it up in the software so 00:04:38.240 --> 00:04:40.800 i can do multi -color prints once i get that 00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:42.879 set up it's an established brand it's like any 00:04:42.879 --> 00:04:49.279 cubic uh cobra oh brah um and then uh it's supposed 00:04:49.279 --> 00:04:53.420 to it's it's basically like a Bamboo Lab version 00:04:53.420 --> 00:04:58.699 kind of knockoff of their mid -grade enclosed 00:04:58.699 --> 00:05:04.220 printer and so yeah I'm hoping this fixes all 00:05:04.220 --> 00:05:06.560 the issues and I should be able to just remotely 00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:09.420 send crap to the device from my phone from an 00:05:09.420 --> 00:05:13.160 app if I have it or send it from other devices 00:05:13.160 --> 00:05:16.199 wirelessly like it's yeah the one I have right 00:05:16.199 --> 00:05:18.939 now it's every time I go to use it it's a headache 00:05:18.939 --> 00:05:22.670 and When it worked, it worked great. When it 00:05:22.670 --> 00:05:25.949 didn't work, it didn't work. Yeah. Because I 00:05:25.949 --> 00:05:27.670 have a lot of brittle prints that are sitting 00:05:27.670 --> 00:05:30.329 here in unfinished land, like I was trying to 00:05:30.329 --> 00:05:32.670 print the Beast Machine Megatron in the cloak. 00:05:33.310 --> 00:05:39.050 Yep. I got as far as his pedestal, and then part 00:05:39.050 --> 00:05:43.410 of it snapped off because the... I don't know 00:05:43.410 --> 00:05:45.410 if it wasn't filled in right. I don't know. But 00:05:45.410 --> 00:05:47.250 I'm going to have to end up reprinting that whole 00:05:47.250 --> 00:05:50.689 stupid thing that I got. that I got started, 00:05:50.730 --> 00:05:52.670 a lot of it didn't really print properly anyway, 00:05:52.810 --> 00:05:54.230 so I was going to have to do this, but I was 00:05:54.230 --> 00:05:56.790 just going to super glue it all together. Yeah. 00:05:57.009 --> 00:06:00.949 And just deal. Yeah. Because, I mean, ultimately 00:06:00.949 --> 00:06:03.470 it's going on display. It doesn't matter if it 00:06:03.470 --> 00:06:08.389 moves. Yeah, I mean, yeah. So, same token with, 00:06:08.589 --> 00:06:11.230 I was looking at, and this is not Transformers 00:06:11.230 --> 00:06:14.889 related, but I, because I've had Dragon Ball 00:06:14.889 --> 00:06:17.610 Z, Dragon Ball Super, all of those figurines. 00:06:18.519 --> 00:06:21.920 I decided I wanted to make a version of Vegeta 00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:25.360 from Dragon Ball GT, which is technically not 00:06:25.360 --> 00:06:29.680 canon. But it's anyways, there's a base form 00:06:29.680 --> 00:06:32.240 of him that he's not wearing the armor and looks 00:06:32.240 --> 00:06:37.180 kind of normal and cool. And so I was going to 00:06:37.180 --> 00:06:40.660 cobble together multiple figures to create that, 00:06:40.779 --> 00:06:44.420 which would have been fun. However, I looked 00:06:44.420 --> 00:06:48.589 on 3D printer stuff because I was like, I don't 00:06:48.589 --> 00:06:51.149 know. I don't really want to spend it. And then 00:06:51.149 --> 00:06:53.529 I tried to cobble the two figures I have now 00:06:53.529 --> 00:06:57.009 that would have worked. And there's a missing 00:06:57.009 --> 00:06:59.310 gap where the waist joint would have connected. 00:06:59.829 --> 00:07:06.089 So it's not going to work. So I was like, do 00:07:06.089 --> 00:07:09.889 I want to get two $30 figures just to cobble 00:07:09.889 --> 00:07:13.930 them together in the hopes that they work? Or 00:07:13.930 --> 00:07:16.110 do I want to save my money and figure something 00:07:16.110 --> 00:07:19.569 else out? Yeah, so I looked and I'm like, again, 00:07:19.689 --> 00:07:21.230 it's going to be something that doesn't move. 00:07:21.370 --> 00:07:26.449 I was like, if I buy a flesh tone filament, I 00:07:26.449 --> 00:07:29.769 could print the layers with the head and the 00:07:29.769 --> 00:07:34.730 hands and, you know, that portion in that filament. 00:07:34.790 --> 00:07:36.970 I could also just print the rest of it in its 00:07:36.970 --> 00:07:40.250 colors or paint it if I have to print it all 00:07:40.250 --> 00:07:43.470 in one color. and i think i could do the same 00:07:43.470 --> 00:07:46.769 job uh and i've seen like about eight different 00:07:46.769 --> 00:07:49.949 nice 3d prints that might work for this so i'm 00:07:49.949 --> 00:07:52.870 gonna try that and see what happens and then 00:07:52.870 --> 00:07:56.370 uh if nothing else i've got a display item uh 00:07:56.370 --> 00:08:00.629 i am gonna probably reprint my power morpher 00:08:00.629 --> 00:08:03.970 once i get the new printer and that but i want 00:08:03.970 --> 00:08:06.329 to do beast machines mechatron something terrible 00:08:11.170 --> 00:08:14.870 Yeah, so that's what I've been up to other than 00:08:14.870 --> 00:08:19.529 brandishing new ideas for video content since 00:08:19.529 --> 00:08:23.209 our YouTube channel has kind of slowly dwindled 00:08:23.209 --> 00:08:25.829 off as the podcasts have finished uploading. 00:08:27.189 --> 00:08:30.269 Well, there you go. That just means we have to 00:08:30.269 --> 00:08:33.750 create more podcasts. Yes, and video content. 00:08:34.149 --> 00:08:39.669 Well, yeah, but yeah. But yeah, Christmas was 00:08:39.669 --> 00:08:43.350 fine for me. I kind of am in hibernate mode still. 00:08:43.970 --> 00:08:46.690 Getting into Transformers stuff, we've got nine 00:08:46.690 --> 00:08:49.049 things, and it's not going to take us all night 00:08:49.049 --> 00:08:50.909 to go through all nine of these, because some 00:08:50.909 --> 00:08:54.909 of these are just, hey, this happened. One of 00:08:54.909 --> 00:08:58.070 those, I'll actually skip over the Wave 1 Transformers 00:08:58.070 --> 00:08:59.789 Age of the Primes for a second, just to mention 00:08:59.789 --> 00:09:02.029 since we're talking about Christmas. David Cade 00:09:02.029 --> 00:09:05.409 did his annual Christmas greeting. That, and 00:09:05.409 --> 00:09:10.049 I'm like, oh, wow. David's always inventive when 00:09:10.049 --> 00:09:13.750 he does his Christmas greetings. Unfortunately, 00:09:13.889 --> 00:09:20.070 I think Gary Chuck is not doing, or he wasn't 00:09:20.070 --> 00:09:25.330 doing so well. He had some sort of cancer diagnosis. 00:09:25.330 --> 00:09:27.570 I forget what it was. There was something going 00:09:27.570 --> 00:09:30.490 on. Yeah, he's got a cancer diagnosis. Yeah. 00:09:32.110 --> 00:09:35.850 Gary, please, keep fighting, man. We need you 00:09:35.850 --> 00:09:38.190 here. Keep fighting. Fight the good fight on 00:09:38.190 --> 00:09:40.570 that, you know, kicking that cancer butt. But, 00:09:40.649 --> 00:09:42.950 yeah, I saw David. Did you see the David Kaye 00:09:42.950 --> 00:09:45.649 video? Have you watched that? No, I haven't had 00:09:45.649 --> 00:09:48.409 a chance to watch it, which, yeah, I know. I'm 00:09:48.409 --> 00:09:53.110 like, but I haven't, like, it's just, it's been 00:09:53.110 --> 00:09:56.929 an interesting couple of weeks. Just been swamped 00:09:56.929 --> 00:10:02.029 in general. We're six days into 2025, folks, 00:10:02.149 --> 00:10:04.809 and we both feel like we could use a long winter's 00:10:04.809 --> 00:10:10.009 nap. Because, oh boy, the end of 2024 was crazy. 00:10:11.590 --> 00:10:16.929 All right, so getting into the Wave 1 thing, 00:10:17.149 --> 00:10:21.110 can I just say I wish they would finally just 00:10:21.110 --> 00:10:26.230 say... And maybe this is more of an issue that 00:10:26.230 --> 00:10:29.509 I have with TFW than it is anything else, but 00:10:29.509 --> 00:10:35.429 like... So we're going to talk about the Transformers 00:10:35.429 --> 00:10:39.110 Age of the Primes Wave 1. Which includes your 00:10:39.110 --> 00:10:42.250 Voyagers, your Deluxes, your this, your that, 00:10:42.289 --> 00:10:45.309 whatever, whatever, whatever. We're now getting 00:10:45.309 --> 00:10:47.970 into the whole thing of Hasbro having various 00:10:47.970 --> 00:10:52.470 other names for larger size figures. So usually, 00:10:52.730 --> 00:10:55.529 how it has been for the last at least 15 and 00:10:55.529 --> 00:10:57.690 a half, 16 years of you and I doing this show, 00:10:57.889 --> 00:11:02.289 it's, what's the time, Core Class, Deluxe Class, 00:11:02.450 --> 00:11:06.490 which is your standard mid -size figure, not 00:11:06.490 --> 00:11:12.110 mid -size, but it's your standard thing. Voyager's 00:11:12.110 --> 00:11:15.259 a little bigger. And then there was Leader and 00:11:15.259 --> 00:11:17.899 this, that, and everything else. A couple years 00:11:17.899 --> 00:11:19.840 ago, they introduced the Commander class, which 00:11:19.840 --> 00:11:23.220 is like your super Leader class kind of thing. 00:11:23.580 --> 00:11:26.940 And now they have Titan class. And I'm just like, 00:11:27.139 --> 00:11:33.899 okay. What's besides, obviously, price, because 00:11:33.899 --> 00:11:35.759 yikes. You know, we're going to go through these. 00:11:35.799 --> 00:11:37.860 We have images. That's the only reason why we're 00:11:37.860 --> 00:11:39.039 going to go through this wave one is because 00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:42.820 there is actual box art. And inbox images of 00:11:42.820 --> 00:11:45.860 these things. But man, I wish they would get 00:11:45.860 --> 00:11:50.980 their sizing redone or re -whatever. Silverbolt 00:11:50.980 --> 00:11:56.179 is one of the commander classes. So they're doing 00:11:56.179 --> 00:12:00.940 the aerial bots. We've got Air Raid and Slingshot. 00:12:00.960 --> 00:12:03.570 So we get three of the five aerial bots. The 00:12:03.570 --> 00:12:05.610 funny thing is, because they're doing this Age 00:12:05.610 --> 00:12:07.809 of the Primes thing, and it's, oh, it's the Age 00:12:07.809 --> 00:12:10.690 of the Primes, and everybody's included in this 00:12:10.690 --> 00:12:13.629 thing. And I get to Fugitive Waspinator, and 00:12:13.629 --> 00:12:17.330 I'm like, that's an animated Bumblebee repaint 00:12:17.330 --> 00:12:22.669 into the Fugitive Waspinator from Animated. Wasp 00:12:22.669 --> 00:12:24.370 or whatever. And I'm like, ooh, that's cool. 00:12:24.409 --> 00:12:29.960 I want it for the car mode. That's the only reason 00:12:29.960 --> 00:12:32.679 why I would want that figure. Not because the 00:12:32.679 --> 00:12:34.620 bot mode doesn't look cool. It looks amazing. 00:12:35.120 --> 00:12:40.340 But literally, I loved when they did certain 00:12:40.340 --> 00:12:43.240 repaints of Bumblebee's animated design. Like 00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:45.940 Bumblebee, I never had the animated Bumblebee. 00:12:46.059 --> 00:12:49.740 What I had was the Elite Guard Bumblebee, which 00:12:49.740 --> 00:12:52.700 is basically the Bumblebee figure, except he's 00:12:52.700 --> 00:12:55.240 black and gold instead of, because he's supposed 00:12:55.240 --> 00:12:58.029 to have the stealth look. when he became an elite 00:12:58.029 --> 00:13:00.990 guard member. But I love this Wasp. I can hear 00:13:00.990 --> 00:13:05.149 Waspinator coming out of this animated Wasp design. 00:13:05.570 --> 00:13:09.929 We've got Solus Prime. I like her alt mode. We've 00:13:09.929 --> 00:13:13.710 got the Generation 2 Grimlock. So, Blue Grimlock. 00:13:13.750 --> 00:13:16.450 What do you think of Blue Dinosaur? Blue Dinosaur 00:13:16.450 --> 00:13:18.850 versus Purple Dinosaur. There's no Megatron in 00:13:18.850 --> 00:13:22.850 this listing, but... I'm indifferent. It's just 00:13:22.850 --> 00:13:25.799 a repaint. Just another effing repaint, man. 00:13:27.139 --> 00:13:33.259 Just a bunch of repaints. Megatronus the Fallen, 00:13:33.360 --> 00:13:36.139 so we get that. What do you think of Megatronus? 00:13:36.440 --> 00:13:39.179 I can't even talk tonight, folks. Megatronus. 00:13:39.720 --> 00:13:41.580 Don't get me wrong, I like the figure. I know 00:13:41.580 --> 00:13:47.259 it's a retool of Megatron. It looks cool. It's 00:13:47.259 --> 00:13:49.759 got a different deco to the chest and to the 00:13:49.759 --> 00:13:54.350 whole... If it weren't for the fact that it's 00:13:54.350 --> 00:13:57.730 another one of these type of canon, you know... 00:13:57.730 --> 00:14:01.289 Yeah, it was a different tank, yeah. Yeah, I 00:14:01.289 --> 00:14:05.009 mean, don't get me wrong, I love the design of 00:14:05.009 --> 00:14:06.730 the figure, especially in Robot, because I'm 00:14:06.730 --> 00:14:09.590 like, oh, that would make a nice pre -Beast Megatron 00:14:09.590 --> 00:14:11.990 that they could retool, even though it's not 00:14:11.990 --> 00:14:15.210 the miniature version. It would be something... 00:14:15.210 --> 00:14:20.429 It would look fitting. Yeah. Almost like an IDW 00:14:20.429 --> 00:14:28.750 Megatron. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Which, I think, 00:14:28.750 --> 00:14:33.129 didn't they do IDW Megatron? I think they did 00:14:33.129 --> 00:14:35.330 at one point or another. They didn't make one. 00:14:36.269 --> 00:14:42.370 Really? No. I thought they did. Not Beast Megatron. 00:14:42.889 --> 00:14:45.450 No, no, no. I'm talking about IDW Megatron. I 00:14:45.450 --> 00:14:46.710 know they didn't make a Beast Megatron. Oh, yeah. 00:14:46.909 --> 00:14:50.769 I'm pretty sure that was like a... Yeah. That 00:14:50.769 --> 00:14:53.610 fire... Yeah, it was like a model kit. It wasn't... 00:14:53.610 --> 00:15:01.269 Okay. I remember IDW Megatron when IDW still 00:15:01.269 --> 00:15:04.470 had the license to the comics and they revealed 00:15:04.470 --> 00:15:08.669 his alt mode. That was by far... Out of any of 00:15:08.669 --> 00:15:12.029 the tank versions Megatron has ever been, that 00:15:12.029 --> 00:15:16.370 was the coolest. At the time when they had it. 00:15:16.889 --> 00:15:24.350 Up next is Star Optimus Prime. Star Convoy. It's 00:15:24.350 --> 00:15:29.190 a Japanese version. Yeah, the 13 Star Convoy 00:15:29.190 --> 00:15:35.110 Optimus Prime. This is... I don't know. I like 00:15:35.110 --> 00:15:40.450 it, but that's because I like that design. In 00:15:40.450 --> 00:15:47.659 that universe, though, They had him merge with 00:15:47.659 --> 00:15:50.320 like diatlas and some others and he actually 00:15:50.320 --> 00:15:53.980 fought the super Megatron in this body. Okay. 00:15:54.480 --> 00:15:58.659 So that's why I care about it. Yeah. They made 00:15:58.659 --> 00:16:01.940 a super Megatron years ago, a triple changer. 00:16:02.480 --> 00:16:06.519 Yeah. And, uh, but it was with the, uh, war for 00:16:06.519 --> 00:16:08.960 Cybertron or not work for Cybertron battle or 00:16:08.960 --> 00:16:15.519 power of the primes. Gotcha. Yeah. I like his... 00:16:15.519 --> 00:16:19.179 I like the trailer. This is so stupid. I like 00:16:19.179 --> 00:16:21.259 the trailer because it reminds me of Power Master 00:16:21.259 --> 00:16:25.419 Optimus Prime's trailer. I don't necessarily 00:16:25.419 --> 00:16:30.159 like the front part of the vehicle mode. The 00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:33.259 upper part of it. That's a little... I mean, 00:16:33.279 --> 00:16:35.720 I get it. It's where it's there because of the 00:16:35.720 --> 00:16:40.279 guns, but it is what it is. At first, I thought 00:16:40.279 --> 00:16:46.100 this next one was a, uh... What's his name? Sentinel 00:16:46.100 --> 00:16:50.000 Prime. Because blue legs, white body, whatever. 00:16:50.200 --> 00:16:53.899 But apparently this is Red Alert. Why Red Alert's 00:16:53.899 --> 00:16:58.159 blue is beyond me? Okay. Well, this Red Alert 00:16:58.159 --> 00:17:01.919 is from Robots in Disguise. Or not Robots in 00:17:01.919 --> 00:17:06.200 Disguise. He's from Armada, I think. Oh, that. 00:17:06.400 --> 00:17:08.819 Okay, yeah, that's right. I remember that now. 00:17:08.980 --> 00:17:13.130 Yeah. I like the alt mode. It's funny with a 00:17:13.130 --> 00:17:15.710 lot of these listings that we have for this story, 00:17:15.809 --> 00:17:18.809 folks. I like some of the alt modes more than 00:17:18.809 --> 00:17:22.730 the actual bot modes. Same thing with Prima Prime 00:17:22.730 --> 00:17:27.069 here. That is a cool alt mode. Yeah, it's basically, 00:17:27.190 --> 00:17:33.410 it kind of reminds me of like Hup or... Yeah, 00:17:35.210 --> 00:17:38.890 I like this figure, but it's more so because... 00:17:39.880 --> 00:17:42.099 there's the capability of turning this into the 00:17:42.099 --> 00:17:49.480 IDW pre beast. Yep. Yeah, absolutely. And, uh, 00:17:49.480 --> 00:17:55.079 the Lux class retail prices are now up to 25 00:17:55.079 --> 00:18:02.660 bucks per figure ages, eight and up, man. Yeah. 00:18:02.920 --> 00:18:08.539 What were Deluxe's 15 years ago? Eight 99. Well, 00:18:08.599 --> 00:18:12.359 they were like 12 something, but still. Okay. 00:18:12.839 --> 00:18:18.359 Yeah. Yeah. Also, I was trying to find pictures, 00:18:18.359 --> 00:18:20.200 and maybe it's in a separate story that I didn't 00:18:20.200 --> 00:18:24.099 grab, but they list here the next Transformers 00:18:24.099 --> 00:18:28.000 collaborative thing, Transformers X Sonic the 00:18:28.000 --> 00:18:31.380 Hedgehog wingtail and blue booster action figures. 00:18:31.799 --> 00:18:37.299 Have you seen these things? No. Oh, my God. All 00:18:37.299 --> 00:18:41.019 right. Well, let me send you the link, because 00:18:41.019 --> 00:18:44.119 apparently in the story link with the wave one, 00:18:44.299 --> 00:18:47.799 there's a link there that says, here, look at 00:18:47.799 --> 00:18:52.940 the extra blah, blah, blah. Holy crap. Why? Why 00:18:52.940 --> 00:18:59.259 what? The stupid things. Oh, so this is a previous. 00:18:59.339 --> 00:19:03.670 Okay. Well. Alright, well, I'm seeing more images 00:19:03.670 --> 00:19:06.970 of that Optimus. I'm kind of liking him a little 00:19:06.970 --> 00:19:10.049 bit more. That red alert still looks like Sentinel 00:19:10.049 --> 00:19:14.369 to me. Uh, but these Sonic figures are at the 00:19:14.369 --> 00:19:18.809 bottom of the thing? Past all the images with 00:19:18.809 --> 00:19:24.349 the kids and the toys, I guess? Uh, wait. I don't 00:19:24.349 --> 00:19:29.349 see the Sonic images at all in this. Huh. Why 00:19:29.349 --> 00:19:32.690 would TFW2005 .com, what the hell are you doing, 00:19:32.890 --> 00:19:35.410 link into a story that... Oh, here they are. 00:19:36.289 --> 00:19:41.210 I think. Transformers sound like the Hedgehog. 00:19:41.930 --> 00:19:47.289 They ugly. It's funny, too. I also follow certain 00:19:47.289 --> 00:19:55.829 things in the TFW forums. And I think... We'll 00:19:55.829 --> 00:19:58.369 get an announcement later this year of a masterpiece 00:19:58.369 --> 00:20:02.210 Tarantulas and Waspinator. Nice, that would be 00:20:02.210 --> 00:20:09.250 cool. So, I like the car mode and the airplane 00:20:09.250 --> 00:20:13.190 mode. I don't like the robot mode on this new 00:20:13.190 --> 00:20:16.190 collaborative thing they're doing. It's too weird. 00:20:18.210 --> 00:20:23.589 Doesn't work. I don't know. It's like they took, 00:20:23.769 --> 00:20:27.329 um... Granted, Blades from Robots in Disguise 00:20:27.329 --> 00:20:32.170 and... Was it Robots in Disguise 2015? No, Rescue 00:20:32.170 --> 00:20:35.809 Bots. There's a helicopter. There's an orange 00:20:35.809 --> 00:20:39.710 helicopter on there called Blades. The Tails 00:20:39.710 --> 00:20:43.410 figure here, it's like they took Blades, made 00:20:43.410 --> 00:20:47.349 him an airplane, and somehow mashed the yellowness 00:20:47.349 --> 00:20:52.170 of Tails. in this. And the whole point of the 00:20:52.170 --> 00:20:54.349 Sonic character of Tails, the whole reason why 00:20:54.349 --> 00:20:56.490 he's called Tails, he has two tails. Oh, duh. 00:20:57.970 --> 00:21:00.849 He ain't got two tails as this airplane. He got 00:21:00.849 --> 00:21:07.130 one tail. So, yeah, no. No, thank you. Really 00:21:07.130 --> 00:21:10.089 quick before we move on, as I'm seeing more of 00:21:10.089 --> 00:21:16.009 this Optimus, I do like the robot mode more than 00:21:16.009 --> 00:21:18.950 anything else. I'll say now that I'm seeing more 00:21:18.950 --> 00:21:22.750 of the robot mode. That alt mode, like I said, 00:21:22.829 --> 00:21:25.150 the trailer reminds me of Power Master Optimus 00:21:25.150 --> 00:21:26.809 Prime, and there's just too much going on with 00:21:26.809 --> 00:21:30.609 that trailer. In the alt mode, not in the battle 00:21:30.609 --> 00:21:32.309 station mode. The battle station mode, fine, 00:21:32.390 --> 00:21:34.569 you can have whatever you want going on there, 00:21:34.789 --> 00:21:41.490 but that's a little much. No, I get it. Yeah, 00:21:41.569 --> 00:21:46.890 I just like the figure, the design. Yeah, absolutely. 00:21:48.970 --> 00:21:52.309 All right, folks. Moving on, we've got, because 00:21:52.309 --> 00:21:55.250 I was actively seeing if there was anything for 00:21:55.250 --> 00:21:58.150 you, because we've always said, oh, they're not 00:21:58.150 --> 00:22:00.450 doing anything with Beast Wars lately. They're 00:22:00.450 --> 00:22:02.009 not doing this, they're not doing that. We have 00:22:02.009 --> 00:22:06.309 upcoming Wonderfest 2025 exclusive Beast Wars 00:22:06.309 --> 00:22:10.690 Optimus Primal and Rattrap Garage kits. Coming 00:22:10.690 --> 00:22:14.109 to us via Twitter slash ex -users, this person 00:22:14.109 --> 00:22:15.910 and that person, because I can't pronounce those 00:22:15.910 --> 00:22:18.569 names whatsoever, we have renders and images 00:22:18.569 --> 00:22:21.809 of two new upcoming Wonderfest 2025 exclusive 00:22:21.809 --> 00:22:24.130 Beast Wars Optimus Primal and Rattrap garage 00:22:24.130 --> 00:22:27.470 kits. Both fans have got official permission 00:22:27.470 --> 00:22:30.829 to sell Beast Wars Optimus Primal, Rattrap, Beast 00:22:30.829 --> 00:22:34.130 Mode, and Optimus Primal Shield, seen in the 00:22:34.130 --> 00:22:37.250 cartoon garage kits, assembly scale model kits 00:22:37.250 --> 00:22:41.980 most commonly cast. and polyurethane resin. During 00:22:41.980 --> 00:22:44.759 the Wonder Festival 2025 event on February 9th, 00:22:44.759 --> 00:22:49.440 2025. Hey, my 45th birthday. Yay. In Japan. The 00:22:49.440 --> 00:22:52.079 license only allows these kits to be sold at 00:22:52.079 --> 00:22:56.799 the convention in Japan. Won't be available in 00:22:56.799 --> 00:23:00.640 any retail or online store after that. So the 00:23:00.640 --> 00:23:04.740 license only allows these to be sold at the show. 00:23:05.700 --> 00:23:09.730 And these are supposed to be model kits? Okay, 00:23:09.750 --> 00:23:12.369 I'm looking at the Optimus and I can kind of 00:23:12.369 --> 00:23:15.210 see how they are where the lower part of his 00:23:15.210 --> 00:23:18.210 arm and the upper part of his arm where his shoulder... 00:23:18.210 --> 00:23:20.329 Okay, I can kind of see that. It's like those 00:23:20.329 --> 00:23:23.990 old 90s toys where they literally, you know, 00:23:24.009 --> 00:23:28.009 you can rotate the wrists and the arms. It's 00:23:28.009 --> 00:23:33.809 like if you had the old genie figure. You know, 00:23:33.829 --> 00:23:39.559 from the 90s. For Aladdin. Yeah. That's basically 00:23:39.559 --> 00:23:46.059 what these are. Yeah. And, um, I don't know many 00:23:46.059 --> 00:23:47.720 people that are going to get, I mean, you can 00:23:47.720 --> 00:23:49.920 try to find them on secondary market, I guess, 00:23:49.940 --> 00:23:58.099 but I, that's just weird to me. I honestly don't. 00:23:58.329 --> 00:24:02.430 feel the need to get these? No! Well, I, when 00:24:02.430 --> 00:24:05.289 I saw the story before, I mean, I read the story 00:24:05.289 --> 00:24:08.230 before we did the show, and my reaction is kind 00:24:08.230 --> 00:24:11.950 of authentic, but not. I'm kind of putting on 00:24:11.950 --> 00:24:14.029 a show a little bit here, but it's a little crazy, 00:24:14.109 --> 00:24:17.269 and it's only those two. Like, out of all the 00:24:17.269 --> 00:24:22.589 characters, like, okay, yeah, like, do Optimus 00:24:22.589 --> 00:24:25.819 and Megatron? I don't have anything against Rattrap. 00:24:25.920 --> 00:24:28.099 Rattrap's cool. Maybe if you had a license for 00:24:28.099 --> 00:24:30.579 a second wave or something. I don't know. This 00:24:30.579 --> 00:24:34.259 really isn't even a wave. It's two figures and 00:24:34.259 --> 00:24:39.559 a shield. Well, and I think, honestly, I think 00:24:39.559 --> 00:24:42.400 it's going to be one of those things. Like, the 00:24:42.400 --> 00:24:46.680 shield? You can already buy that from Funbee 00:24:46.680 --> 00:24:52.109 Studios. Like, the 3D print file? Yeah. And then 00:24:52.109 --> 00:24:55.890 have it printed yourself. Yeah. So there's really 00:24:55.890 --> 00:25:03.009 not a case for getting this? Yeah. No, not really. 00:25:03.809 --> 00:25:10.210 Not at all. Moving on, I gotta say, I wasn't 00:25:10.210 --> 00:25:15.710 that interested before, but I am now. You better 00:25:15.710 --> 00:25:18.109 watch out, Funko, because Blockies is coming 00:25:18.109 --> 00:25:22.549 for you. There's always another one to knock 00:25:22.549 --> 00:25:27.890 off the previous one. Yeah, yeah, I know. Locky's 00:25:27.890 --> 00:25:31.089 Transformers Galaxy Version Wave 6 full lineup 00:25:31.089 --> 00:25:35.990 and in -hand images via Weebo users, that person 00:25:35.990 --> 00:25:42.089 and that person. I can not rab in some other 00:25:42.089 --> 00:25:46.299 language that I can't speak. In him, images of 00:25:46.299 --> 00:25:49.299 new Blocky's Transformers Galaxy Version Wave 00:25:49.299 --> 00:25:52.700 6. This new wave of small, chibi, and easy -to 00:25:52.700 --> 00:25:55.380 -build model kits consists of the following characters 00:25:55.380 --> 00:25:59.299 from different universes. IDW Megatron, IDW Optimus, 00:25:59.380 --> 00:26:03.059 G1 Sunstreaker, Shattered Glass Ratchet, G1 Kickback, 00:26:03.240 --> 00:26:07.079 Dirge, Wheeljack, Swoop Dino Mode, Swoop Robot 00:26:07.079 --> 00:26:12.299 Mode, and IDW Optimus Prime Forcefield Mode, 00:26:12.559 --> 00:26:17.390 Blue Redecco Chase. The only one out of this 00:26:17.390 --> 00:26:20.890 that I want. Because I'm looking at this Optimus 00:26:20.890 --> 00:26:26.690 Prime and I'm like, was IDW Optimus that? Literally, 00:26:26.750 --> 00:26:30.049 I thought this was like, um, uh, no, no. It's 00:26:30.049 --> 00:26:34.390 War for Cybertron. Is it really? Yeah, it's the, 00:26:34.390 --> 00:26:38.549 it's the old War for Cybertron design of Prime. 00:26:39.730 --> 00:26:45.440 No, it's not. He had windows on him. No. This 00:26:45.440 --> 00:26:48.039 one is from the old War for Cybertron comics. 00:26:48.819 --> 00:26:52.359 Oh, the comics. Okay. I thought you meant the 00:26:52.359 --> 00:26:56.920 video game. I was like, um... No. Okay. No, they've 00:26:56.920 --> 00:26:59.059 already made that figure. Yeah, that's what I 00:26:59.059 --> 00:27:02.259 thought. But really, the main star in this for 00:27:02.259 --> 00:27:05.180 me is the Megatron. But I've been looking at 00:27:05.180 --> 00:27:07.799 the other Blockies that are on the Blockies website 00:27:07.799 --> 00:27:09.519 and where else you can buy these things, and 00:27:09.519 --> 00:27:11.640 I'm like, ooh, I want that one. Ooh, I want that 00:27:11.640 --> 00:27:13.640 one. Ooh, I want that one. But that Megatron 00:27:13.640 --> 00:27:16.259 with the Autobot logo on it, because during part 00:27:16.259 --> 00:27:19.740 of the IDW run, he becomes an Autobot. It was 00:27:19.740 --> 00:27:24.819 the only way to save Cybertron at the time. I 00:27:24.819 --> 00:27:27.930 like the swoop. I probably wouldn't buy the swoop, 00:27:27.950 --> 00:27:31.369 but I like it. I think it's cool. The Chase Optimus 00:27:31.369 --> 00:27:35.589 looks... Optimus just looks weird all blue. I 00:27:35.589 --> 00:27:39.450 mean, it's a nice homage to when they had an 00:27:39.450 --> 00:27:42.630 animation error in Season 1 of Generation 1 when 00:27:42.630 --> 00:27:45.549 he was all blue. But yeah, the only reason why 00:27:45.549 --> 00:27:48.069 I'm even talking about this story is that IDW 00:27:48.069 --> 00:27:51.109 Megatron, because that looks badass. Any thoughts? 00:27:52.170 --> 00:27:57.619 Guess not. Catchphrase. So these blockies, any 00:27:57.619 --> 00:28:03.539 thoughts, sir? Well, aside from Optimus Prime 00:28:03.539 --> 00:28:06.220 being from the War for Cybertron comics and then 00:28:06.220 --> 00:28:12.980 Megatron being from the IDW universe, I honestly 00:28:12.980 --> 00:28:17.460 don't hate these. They actually look cooler than 00:28:17.460 --> 00:28:21.690 the RED figures. And they look better than those. 00:28:21.869 --> 00:28:24.250 They sold something else by Hasbro and they were 00:28:24.250 --> 00:28:27.390 like four to five dollars. They were like very 00:28:27.390 --> 00:28:30.509 low detailed and they barely moved or had barely 00:28:30.509 --> 00:28:34.910 any posability. These actually have posability. 00:28:34.990 --> 00:28:37.509 They actually look halfway decent. Like they're 00:28:37.509 --> 00:28:39.630 not, you know, they're not expensive figures. 00:28:39.730 --> 00:28:42.109 They're about the size of like your old school 00:28:42.109 --> 00:28:46.490 basic figure and about the same price point. 00:28:46.529 --> 00:28:51.299 They just don't transform, which honestly, I 00:28:51.299 --> 00:28:53.640 don't really transform any of mine in any more 00:28:53.640 --> 00:28:57.079 anyway. Like I like the capability being built 00:28:57.079 --> 00:28:59.619 in still in case I'm like, Oh, I want to mess 00:28:59.619 --> 00:29:02.700 with it. But I mean, I've got these ones in the 00:29:02.700 --> 00:29:05.099 cabinet and I've not pulled them out in six months 00:29:05.099 --> 00:29:10.680 to do anything with them. Um, so, so again, like 00:29:10.680 --> 00:29:13.599 that's where like the model type thing is more 00:29:13.599 --> 00:29:17.160 fitting. Yeah. I do like these two figures, uh, 00:29:17.319 --> 00:29:19.630 the optimist and the Megatron. I've looked at 00:29:19.630 --> 00:29:21.269 them in the store. Like, I honestly have looked 00:29:21.269 --> 00:29:24.190 at them. I'm like, you know, I wouldn't mind. 00:29:24.890 --> 00:29:27.710 Yeah. Of the right figures or the right characters 00:29:27.710 --> 00:29:29.890 for me. Yeah, the right characters, yeah. And 00:29:29.890 --> 00:29:32.170 I've looked at the old, you know, the other Optimus 00:29:32.170 --> 00:29:34.089 Prime, and I see we've got some Shattered Glass 00:29:34.089 --> 00:29:39.450 stuff in here, and, you know, I'm not... I would 00:29:39.450 --> 00:29:46.569 sooner buy these over Funkos. And it's not... 00:29:47.789 --> 00:29:51.089 I don't hate Funko's the way I hated Mighty Mugs. 00:29:52.009 --> 00:29:55.289 Yeah. But the same, but the same token, like, 00:29:55.309 --> 00:29:59.890 if I, like, they have the Transformers 1 figures, 00:30:00.049 --> 00:30:02.970 they have, you know, the rollout, they have, 00:30:02.970 --> 00:30:06.930 you know, all these different versions of the 00:30:06.930 --> 00:30:11.289 characters. The Transformers 1's figures don't 00:30:11.289 --> 00:30:14.069 really entice me outside of the Megatron. Yeah. 00:30:14.750 --> 00:30:19.039 The original, Blockies, the Optimus Prime looks 00:30:19.039 --> 00:30:24.799 cool. And the original Megatron and some of the 00:30:24.799 --> 00:30:29.299 other ones. I don't know. I've almost pulled 00:30:29.299 --> 00:30:34.559 the trigger on them. I've not. But that's because 00:30:34.559 --> 00:30:39.259 I have limited funds and I have limited shelf 00:30:39.259 --> 00:30:43.579 space. And so to me, it's like where do I draw 00:30:43.579 --> 00:30:49.480 the line? But like I said, some of these are 00:30:49.480 --> 00:30:53.140 really cool. I haven't found one yet that I would 00:30:53.140 --> 00:30:59.680 100 % jump to. I do like the Megatrons and the 00:30:59.680 --> 00:31:04.660 Optimuses across the board. And they can do some 00:31:04.660 --> 00:31:10.180 cool poses. Yeah, they can. And if honestly you 00:31:10.180 --> 00:31:13.539 were trying to have the entire lineup of G1 characters 00:31:13.539 --> 00:31:15.460 or some of the other ones, they have a metallic 00:31:15.460 --> 00:31:18.440 Optimus Prime. yeah as a part of the initial 00:31:18.440 --> 00:31:23.220 i that one is tempting yeah if i ever saw it 00:31:23.220 --> 00:31:28.259 yep um just because it's like i could have a 00:31:28.259 --> 00:31:31.819 real g1 prime and it's not stupid expensive they're 00:31:31.819 --> 00:31:35.759 like five bucks at walmart so yeah yeah i don't 00:31:35.759 --> 00:31:38.279 know i i like these because they're they're like 00:31:38.279 --> 00:31:44.240 almost a chibi without being corny yep Now, correct 00:31:44.240 --> 00:31:46.440 me if I'm wrong, because I'm looking at the, 00:31:46.579 --> 00:31:51.039 what's the, which Insecticon is this? Kickback. 00:31:51.440 --> 00:31:53.559 I'm looking at the Kickback, and I'm looking 00:31:53.559 --> 00:31:56.079 at the Swoop. Now, there are two images here 00:31:56.079 --> 00:32:00.160 where it shows Kickback in robot mode on a stand, 00:32:00.299 --> 00:32:04.740 but it also shows an alternate mode. These aren't 00:32:04.740 --> 00:32:06.960 supposed to transform, right? The alternate mode 00:32:06.960 --> 00:32:11.599 is just a separate figure, right? Am I wrong 00:32:11.599 --> 00:32:13.900 in this? As far as I know, they're not supposed 00:32:13.900 --> 00:32:17.799 to. However, looking at his knees, they almost 00:32:17.799 --> 00:32:22.619 look that way. See, this is... Okay, let me look 00:32:22.619 --> 00:32:25.079 up here in this article again. This new wave 00:32:25.079 --> 00:32:27.559 of small... Well, this one, they do. Like, Swoop 00:32:27.559 --> 00:32:32.059 transforms. Okay. Swoop transforms, and so does... 00:32:32.059 --> 00:32:35.849 I don't think all of them do. No, not all of 00:32:35.849 --> 00:32:37.710 them, but some of them do. Because originally 00:32:37.710 --> 00:32:42.789 I was like, ooh, Swoop as a Pteranodon or whatever 00:32:42.789 --> 00:32:47.210 he is, I would kind of like that, having Swoop 00:32:47.210 --> 00:32:51.029 in alt mode without having to transform him. 00:32:51.109 --> 00:32:53.269 But yeah, the way that these look, some of them 00:32:53.269 --> 00:32:56.109 are, I guess, transformable. They're still very, 00:32:56.190 --> 00:33:00.180 very cool. I mean, I'm almost all in on these. 00:33:00.420 --> 00:33:03.839 But really, for me, it's that IDW Megatron, man. 00:33:04.019 --> 00:33:09.900 It's just that era of where... We all know Megatron, 00:33:09.960 --> 00:33:13.980 the Decepticon leader. We've known him for 41 00:33:13.980 --> 00:33:20.059 years. What they did in IDW to him and changing 00:33:20.059 --> 00:33:23.980 just the way that they wrote that, it was so 00:33:23.980 --> 00:33:28.119 cool. And just having that would be just so awesome. 00:33:28.160 --> 00:33:30.700 And so far, even though the earlier waves are 00:33:30.700 --> 00:33:35.119 showing up here in the U .S., this Wave 6 is 00:33:35.119 --> 00:33:38.480 only available in China at point of recording. 00:33:39.019 --> 00:33:45.160 So hopefully Wave 6 gets to the U .S. soon. Agreed. 00:33:45.279 --> 00:33:49.980 Because I'm not importing. I don't import. I 00:33:49.980 --> 00:33:52.940 like Hot Rod, but I don't do sleek, sexy imports 00:33:52.940 --> 00:33:57.000 with toys. We're not talking about Trypticon 00:33:57.000 --> 00:33:59.819 that much. I only have the Trypticon story here 00:33:59.819 --> 00:34:03.539 because of the fact that I watched this livestream 00:34:03.539 --> 00:34:12.340 with them, and I was trying to figure out why 00:34:12.340 --> 00:34:16.980 they weren't going to make their Age of the Primes 00:34:16.980 --> 00:34:20.380 Titan Trypticon, why they weren't going to make 00:34:20.380 --> 00:34:22.889 it fully cartoon accurate. And the only reason 00:34:22.889 --> 00:34:27.849 that it's not is because of the pinkish car now. 00:34:28.150 --> 00:34:30.250 Like, why couldn't they just reuse the purple 00:34:30.250 --> 00:34:36.710 car? It's the same thing. First look at upcoming 00:34:36.710 --> 00:34:39.050 Transformers Age of the Primes Titan Trypticon. 00:34:39.170 --> 00:34:41.789 This is a re -release of Titans Return Trypticon. 00:34:41.989 --> 00:34:45.809 Titans Return Trypticon, all they had to do with 00:34:45.809 --> 00:34:52.070 this is just repaint him the darker color. They 00:34:52.070 --> 00:34:54.570 didn't have to do anything else with it, but 00:34:54.570 --> 00:34:57.489 yet we're getting the darker color with a pinkish 00:34:57.489 --> 00:35:03.510 car part thing instead of purple the way it was 00:35:03.510 --> 00:35:07.469 in the show. I don't know. I don't really care. 00:35:07.989 --> 00:35:11.590 If you're trying to sell me on we're going to 00:35:11.590 --> 00:35:15.369 have everything cartoon accurate, this one kind 00:35:15.369 --> 00:35:19.380 of failed. Sorry, Evan and Mark and... Ben and 00:35:19.380 --> 00:35:23.139 everybody on the Hasbro team, but not for whatever 00:35:23.139 --> 00:35:28.920 the price a Titan class is. Hell no. Any thoughts? 00:35:30.539 --> 00:35:33.780 No, I mean, I don't get into all these giant 00:35:33.780 --> 00:35:40.079 versions of the characters. And honestly, I don't 00:35:40.079 --> 00:35:42.719 need a re -release of something from Titans Return 00:35:42.719 --> 00:35:46.179 as Age of the Prime. It just kind of seems... 00:35:46.739 --> 00:35:49.260 Like, oh, we had this mold sitting around. Let's 00:35:49.260 --> 00:35:51.539 re -release it. You know they're going to charge 00:35:51.539 --> 00:35:55.739 it like $50 to $100 more. Oh, of course. Absolutely. 00:35:56.340 --> 00:35:57.659 They're like, oh, we're going to get some more 00:35:57.659 --> 00:35:59.820 fun out of this. It's like, dude, we don't care 00:35:59.820 --> 00:36:04.039 anymore. Give us something new. Yep, absolutely. 00:36:05.300 --> 00:36:08.119 We've got... I'm moving around here a little 00:36:08.119 --> 00:36:09.940 bit because the last two stories, we're going 00:36:09.940 --> 00:36:11.980 to kind of fly. We're going to give a little 00:36:11.980 --> 00:36:14.579 bit more to... Well, the last one is just a fly 00:36:14.579 --> 00:36:18.190 -by -night, but the... The one -eyed mood ram. 00:36:19.110 --> 00:36:22.710 Mark Clonus, Mark from the Hasbro design team, 00:36:22.809 --> 00:36:25.409 shared behind -the -scenes images of Age of the 00:36:25.409 --> 00:36:29.530 Primes commander class Silverbolt. I love that 00:36:29.530 --> 00:36:32.170 we live in an age where these designers, as long 00:36:32.170 --> 00:36:34.489 as a figure has already been announced or has 00:36:34.489 --> 00:36:37.530 been teased or previewed or whatever, that we 00:36:37.530 --> 00:36:40.030 can go on Instagram or wherever they have their 00:36:40.030 --> 00:36:41.929 behind -the -scenes accounts of what they're 00:36:41.929 --> 00:36:45.639 working on, and we can see how... things are 00:36:45.639 --> 00:36:49.539 going to look. I love that. And that's the only 00:36:49.539 --> 00:36:52.739 reason why we're even looking at this, is to 00:36:52.739 --> 00:36:57.760 see these Aerialbots kind of, you know, in action. 00:36:59.039 --> 00:37:04.780 And, man, it was... These combiner teams, I know 00:37:04.780 --> 00:37:07.460 you're not that big on the whole combiner team 00:37:07.460 --> 00:37:12.539 thing, but... All these, between Devastator, 00:37:12.659 --> 00:37:16.400 and Bruticus, and the Superion, and the Aerobots, 00:37:16.460 --> 00:37:18.639 and the Combaticons, and the Constructicons, 00:37:18.699 --> 00:37:21.440 it's like, all of this is so cool, because I 00:37:21.440 --> 00:37:30.179 remember, I had Silverbolt, and, I had, did I 00:37:30.179 --> 00:37:35.340 have all the, Silverbolt, Air Raid, Skydive, 00:37:35.559 --> 00:37:43.269 I forget the other, too. I had at least, I know 00:37:43.269 --> 00:37:46.070 I had Silverbolt and I think I had Air Raid or 00:37:46.070 --> 00:37:48.610 Skydive. I think Air Raid originally was voiced 00:37:48.610 --> 00:37:51.570 by Rob Paulson in the cartoon, so I probably 00:37:51.570 --> 00:37:54.250 had him. What do you think of the behind the 00:37:54.250 --> 00:37:59.369 scenes of Silverbolt here with the others? And 00:37:59.369 --> 00:38:02.769 we're talking about the Age of the Primes. Yeah, 00:38:02.829 --> 00:38:08.590 the behind the scenes. So, for one, I loved the 00:38:10.000 --> 00:38:13.940 I love how solid these look. And when I say that, 00:38:13.960 --> 00:38:19.940 I mean my kid has the old Power of the Primes 00:38:19.940 --> 00:38:25.679 Superion. Or not Superion, Defensor. And the 00:38:25.679 --> 00:38:28.059 way those things are designed are such utter 00:38:28.059 --> 00:38:33.260 garbage. And I say that because the way the hinges 00:38:33.260 --> 00:38:36.119 work, the way that they kind of snap together. 00:38:38.099 --> 00:38:43.679 Whereas Silverbolt here has the framing so you 00:38:43.679 --> 00:38:46.119 can still kind of build them without his buddies. 00:38:46.980 --> 00:38:50.019 The framing is there that you more or less attach 00:38:50.019 --> 00:38:53.559 the other figures to. Whereas in the old figures 00:38:53.559 --> 00:38:57.320 they're kind of held together by like you flip 00:38:57.320 --> 00:38:59.920 the head inside the chest and then they're a 00:38:59.920 --> 00:39:02.960 peg to attach to the shoulders or the legs or 00:39:02.960 --> 00:39:05.309 whatever. And it just seems very brittle and 00:39:05.309 --> 00:39:08.409 cheap. And these seem very like solid, very like, 00:39:08.409 --> 00:39:11.429 you know, crunch together, like very well thought 00:39:11.429 --> 00:39:16.329 out. And in that regard, I, I do like where they 00:39:16.329 --> 00:39:22.449 went with it. Yeah. Seeing him next to, I think 00:39:22.449 --> 00:39:26.230 that's motor master in the first, in one of the 00:39:26.230 --> 00:39:29.070 first images of him with the other bots, he picks 00:39:29.070 --> 00:39:32.889 up motor master. I love this. I think this is 00:39:32.889 --> 00:39:35.869 super cool. Like I said, I had the original 80s 00:39:35.869 --> 00:39:42.449 version of Silverbolt as a kid, and man, the 00:39:42.449 --> 00:39:44.690 one where he's picking him up, just the way that 00:39:44.690 --> 00:39:47.869 Mark has Silverbolt posed, where he's on his 00:39:47.869 --> 00:39:52.989 tiptoe and his heel spur for his right leg, and 00:39:52.989 --> 00:39:59.969 just the, man, how did he get that to? The things 00:39:59.969 --> 00:40:02.630 we'll never know, folks. The things we'll never 00:40:02.630 --> 00:40:05.489 know. That's just amazing to me. That's why I 00:40:05.489 --> 00:40:07.750 love a lot of the toy photography stuff is because 00:40:07.750 --> 00:40:11.670 people like Mark who work at Hasbro or even people 00:40:11.670 --> 00:40:14.809 who are in the fandom like Sixo from Triple Takeover 00:40:14.809 --> 00:40:21.389 Toy Cast. Sixo does amazing photography, and 00:40:21.389 --> 00:40:23.570 I would love to interview him one of these days 00:40:23.570 --> 00:40:26.949 about his toy photography. But yeah, Mark did 00:40:26.949 --> 00:40:29.030 an amazing job with his behind -the -scenes look 00:40:29.030 --> 00:40:35.130 of the Commander Silverbolt. Speaking of things 00:40:35.130 --> 00:40:39.170 you don't like, here we go. They're coming. Funko 00:40:39.170 --> 00:40:43.130 Digital Pop Transformers Wave 2 in -hand images. 00:40:43.550 --> 00:40:46.239 So the one image that is here... Because there 00:40:46.239 --> 00:40:50.980 is only one image. I've seen 360 shots of Cheetor 00:40:50.980 --> 00:40:54.079 on Instagram from a different account. But this 00:40:54.079 --> 00:40:58.139 is from Distrackers. Distrackers is the quote 00:40:58.139 --> 00:41:03.860 -unquote number one account to share hacks, leaks, 00:41:04.059 --> 00:41:06.500 whatever. The Pop Analyst is the other one that 00:41:06.500 --> 00:41:11.500 is listed here. Pop Analyst, I kind of know him, 00:41:11.519 --> 00:41:13.000 but I don't know him that well. But he's the 00:41:13.000 --> 00:41:19.420 one I saw the 360 on Cheetor with. So, this wave 00:41:19.420 --> 00:41:23.239 includes G1 Ultra Magnus Blitzwing and RC, Beast 00:41:23.239 --> 00:41:28.880 Wars Cheetor, and then G1 King Starscream Metallic. 00:41:28.900 --> 00:41:33.059 It also includes a Freddy Funko as Grimlock Metallic. 00:41:33.380 --> 00:41:36.030 Personally... I know there are a lot of people 00:41:36.030 --> 00:41:37.969 in the Funko community that I'm friends with 00:41:37.969 --> 00:41:40.670 that love Freddy Funko dressed up as other characters 00:41:40.670 --> 00:41:43.170 and things like that. I hate Freddy Funko dressed 00:41:43.170 --> 00:41:46.210 up as other fictional characters. I don't mind 00:41:46.210 --> 00:41:48.570 if he's dressed up as a policeman or a fireman 00:41:48.570 --> 00:41:51.070 or if he's at the beach or if he's doing something, 00:41:51.250 --> 00:41:54.190 but if you put a Batman costume on him, I'm like, 00:41:54.269 --> 00:41:58.610 nope, don't care. And the Transformers Freddy 00:41:58.610 --> 00:42:06.710 Funko's... Disgusting. However, but... Yeah, 00:42:06.769 --> 00:42:08.969 I don't care for this character at all when they 00:42:08.969 --> 00:42:12.989 do that. Yeah, no, no, no. But the Ultra Magnus, 00:42:13.010 --> 00:42:17.150 Blitzwing, Cheetor, and King Starscream, I'm 00:42:17.150 --> 00:42:19.530 actually getting from a buddy of mine, because 00:42:19.530 --> 00:42:21.909 he was lucky enough, and this is why we're going 00:42:21.909 --> 00:42:23.670 to talk about this, but he was lucky enough to 00:42:23.670 --> 00:42:26.429 pull all of these. I'm getting the Ultra Magnus, 00:42:26.429 --> 00:42:31.190 Blitzwing, and Arcee, and Cheetor from him. I 00:42:31.190 --> 00:42:33.750 have to find somebody that I can get a King Starscream 00:42:33.750 --> 00:42:36.670 from because, oh boy, King Starscream's aftermarket 00:42:36.670 --> 00:42:41.150 price is not cheap because he is the grail of 00:42:41.150 --> 00:42:44.369 the set. But I kind of love how these look. I 00:42:44.369 --> 00:42:46.489 love how everybody's complaining about Ultra 00:42:46.489 --> 00:42:49.230 Magnus' lips and his face and how it kind of 00:42:49.230 --> 00:42:51.429 looks like Overlord's lips and face and whatever 00:42:51.429 --> 00:42:53.929 else. And I'm like, do you not remember Ultra 00:42:53.929 --> 00:43:00.280 Magnus from G1? He was a stoic, heroic -like 00:43:00.280 --> 00:43:02.599 person who always had a chip on his shoulder, 00:43:02.699 --> 00:43:04.539 who always wanted to follow the rules, who didn't 00:43:04.539 --> 00:43:07.219 want to break the rules for anything. So him 00:43:07.219 --> 00:43:10.219 having this kind of frowny look on his face kind 00:43:10.219 --> 00:43:13.460 of makes sense, at least to me. And that Cheetor 00:43:13.460 --> 00:43:17.960 is some hot stuff. I love that Cheetor. I can't 00:43:17.960 --> 00:43:22.000 wait to do this, to get these for my buddy. And 00:43:22.000 --> 00:43:24.920 I've already, luckily, I saved up my money last 00:43:24.920 --> 00:43:27.639 year and I've already paid him. Basically, I'm 00:43:27.639 --> 00:43:30.480 just waiting for them to be shipped on my birthday 00:43:30.480 --> 00:43:35.880 next month. So, I don't read. Like, we read news 00:43:35.880 --> 00:43:39.119 stories from TFW 2005. I haven't been on the 00:43:39.119 --> 00:43:43.300 TFW boards in years. And I don't read the comments 00:43:43.300 --> 00:43:46.340 on the news stories. But because it's Funko, 00:43:46.340 --> 00:43:48.860 and I was curious to see what people were saying. 00:43:49.440 --> 00:43:52.480 One person on New Year's Eve said, I'm still 00:43:52.480 --> 00:43:55.539 not 100 % sure how you get these things, but 00:43:55.539 --> 00:43:57.280 I think it's pretty lame how they're locking 00:43:57.280 --> 00:43:59.840 physical merch behind a stupid digital tokens 00:43:59.840 --> 00:44:02.480 or NFT crap or whatever. I was kind of tempted 00:44:02.480 --> 00:44:07.380 by that Cheetor. It goes on to say, somebody 00:44:07.380 --> 00:44:10.219 quoted somebody else saying, Funko doesn't operate 00:44:10.219 --> 00:44:12.699 in a vacuum. Hasbro signed off on this and fully 00:44:12.699 --> 00:44:16.219 supports it. If you look at who largely has IPs 00:44:16.219 --> 00:44:18.440 tied to these NFT waves, it's almost entirely 00:44:18.440 --> 00:44:21.519 Warner Brothers and Hasbro properties. Not saying 00:44:21.519 --> 00:44:23.780 that makes it right. I dislike this style of 00:44:23.780 --> 00:44:27.380 FOMO release. But if I were throwing stones, 00:44:27.579 --> 00:44:30.219 Hasbro gets as much of the blame as anyone because 00:44:30.219 --> 00:44:32.380 they can easily say, no, we don't want to be 00:44:32.380 --> 00:44:35.260 a part of this. They are just as bad as Funko 00:44:35.260 --> 00:44:37.800 here for not only taking part, but also doing 00:44:37.800 --> 00:44:40.300 over and over and over again. If Hasbro could 00:44:40.300 --> 00:44:42.940 have figured out the NFT grift, they 100 % would 00:44:42.940 --> 00:44:46.780 have done this with their own figures. And then 00:44:46.780 --> 00:44:48.380 somebody replies to this person, says, one hand, 00:44:48.440 --> 00:44:50.579 yes, on the other hand, Hasbro probably wouldn't 00:44:50.579 --> 00:44:53.940 be pushing Funko to do this if Funko hadn't brought 00:44:53.940 --> 00:44:55.860 the idea to them in the first place, which is 00:44:55.860 --> 00:44:59.719 very true. Funko back then did bring certain 00:44:59.719 --> 00:45:07.969 ideas to people. It's just, like, I don't do 00:45:07.969 --> 00:45:11.989 the, like, thankfully we've got leaks and listings 00:45:11.989 --> 00:45:14.190 and other things. Not listings, but we've got 00:45:14.190 --> 00:45:18.190 leaks of potential Transformers Funko Pops that 00:45:18.190 --> 00:45:21.210 are going to come out this year. I've heard, 00:45:21.309 --> 00:45:23.329 like, supposedly there's supposed to be a hot 00:45:23.329 --> 00:45:25.989 rod with Matrix. Again, that is a huge rumor. 00:45:26.349 --> 00:45:29.449 It's not super confirmed, but it's usually accurate. 00:45:31.599 --> 00:45:35.719 But all of the rumors have said that they are... 00:45:35.719 --> 00:45:39.039 It hasn't revealed what the exclusivity is, but 00:45:39.039 --> 00:45:43.460 none of the rumors have said NFT. I'm hoping 00:45:43.460 --> 00:45:50.119 in the year of 2025, Funko and Hasbro... Stop 00:45:50.119 --> 00:45:53.039 putting Transformers Funko Pops behind the NFT 00:45:53.039 --> 00:45:55.920 wall and just put... You can make them convention 00:45:55.920 --> 00:45:58.440 exclusives. You can make them store exclusives. 00:45:58.440 --> 00:46:01.360 You can make them regular pops. It's fine. It's 00:46:01.360 --> 00:46:04.500 whatever. But at least let us buy the damn things. 00:46:06.500 --> 00:46:10.699 Yeah, I agree with you. And that's my spiel on 00:46:10.699 --> 00:46:13.800 that. But yeah, I'm really looking forward to 00:46:13.800 --> 00:46:17.320 getting Cheetor because, like I said, Cheetor 00:46:17.320 --> 00:46:24.380 is... This is very, very cool. I saw a 360. I 00:46:24.380 --> 00:46:25.880 took a screenshot and showed somewhere. They 00:46:25.880 --> 00:46:27.920 were like, is that an actual toy? And I'm like, 00:46:28.000 --> 00:46:37.019 yeah. And? It's like, oh, my God. Some people, 00:46:37.119 --> 00:46:40.179 man. I just don't understand. I don't understand 00:46:40.179 --> 00:46:44.730 this human race we live in. Alright, and finally 00:46:44.730 --> 00:46:49.010 up tonight, last story, we got the Transformers 00:46:49.010 --> 00:46:54.730 Skybound March 2025 solicitations. I was not 00:46:54.730 --> 00:46:59.510 going to go through January, February. If you 00:46:59.510 --> 00:47:01.889 guys want to hear January, February, go listen 00:47:01.889 --> 00:47:04.969 to another comic review with Jesse Early, myself, 00:47:05.230 --> 00:47:10.809 and The Uneven Flow. But coming in March, Transformers 00:47:10.809 --> 00:47:13.329 number 18, Void Rivals number 18, and the previously 00:47:13.329 --> 00:47:16.389 announced Transformers Deluxe Edition Book 1 00:47:16.389 --> 00:47:19.449 hardcover are included in the latest Previews 00:47:19.449 --> 00:47:23.610 World things, and I understand how comics work, 00:47:23.710 --> 00:47:26.070 folks. I've been doing the pullback for 12 years 00:47:26.070 --> 00:47:30.550 this coming March, so I get it, how previews 00:47:30.550 --> 00:47:34.630 work, but you cannot imagine how many times I've 00:47:34.630 --> 00:47:37.820 heard with these upcoming issues. Autobots vs. 00:47:38.519 --> 00:47:42.019 Decepticons vs. this spoiler, whatever the spoiler 00:47:42.019 --> 00:47:47.039 is supposed to be. I'm like, hurry up. Tell us 00:47:47.039 --> 00:47:51.679 who the third faction or third rival is here. 00:47:51.719 --> 00:47:53.719 Is it G .I. Joe? Is it the Void Rivals characters? 00:47:53.980 --> 00:47:57.179 Is it somebody completely different? Like, just 00:47:57.179 --> 00:47:59.920 tell us. But Autobots vs. Decepticons vs. blah 00:47:59.920 --> 00:48:02.639 blah blah is already devastating Seattle, but 00:48:02.639 --> 00:48:04.880 none of them are prepared for how it will end. 00:48:05.369 --> 00:48:08.150 And then for the Void Rivals number 18, at long 00:48:08.150 --> 00:48:12.429 last, Zerta. So, again, I will say to you, sir, 00:48:12.530 --> 00:48:15.289 check out Void Rivals. I know the trades are 00:48:15.289 --> 00:48:17.530 out right now, so you can get the Volume 1 trade. 00:48:17.610 --> 00:48:19.550 Just check out that first five issue. You might 00:48:19.550 --> 00:48:21.750 like it, you might not. But they do have, I do 00:48:21.750 --> 00:48:25.170 love how Skybound is doing the hardcover volumes 00:48:25.170 --> 00:48:29.110 for Transformers and the rest of their series 00:48:29.110 --> 00:48:32.309 that they're covering in the Energon universe. 00:48:32.909 --> 00:48:37.420 So that's coming for comics. And that's it for 00:48:37.420 --> 00:48:41.340 our little show tonight, folks. I think, unless 00:48:41.340 --> 00:48:44.840 you got anything else. Well, I mean, I don't 00:48:44.840 --> 00:48:49.260 really have a whole lot. I'm kind of hoping we 00:48:49.260 --> 00:48:51.940 get, like, I've heard rumors, at least for the 00:48:51.940 --> 00:48:53.559 Funko, that they're going to have an Optimus 00:48:53.559 --> 00:48:57.139 Primal and Megatron. I'm hoping this year we 00:48:57.139 --> 00:49:05.750 get, from Hasbro, a Transmetal Megatron. Yes. 00:49:05.750 --> 00:49:08.610 That would be cool. I'm assuming we'll get a 00:49:08.610 --> 00:49:12.590 quick strike. Aye. Have we already gotten one 00:49:12.590 --> 00:49:14.090 of those? I mean, we always get one of those. 00:49:14.170 --> 00:49:18.210 No. Really? No. I swear we got a quick strike 00:49:18.210 --> 00:49:26.279 already. No, we didn't. Huh. Interesting. Yeah, 00:49:26.279 --> 00:49:30.420 but yeah, and the rumors that are out there, 00:49:30.619 --> 00:49:33.019 like I said, there are a number of really good 00:49:33.019 --> 00:49:36.820 accounts that are usually... Look, folks, say 00:49:36.820 --> 00:49:38.579 what you will about some of the social medias 00:49:38.579 --> 00:49:41.760 out there. Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. 00:49:42.639 --> 00:49:44.840 That's Facebook. I always go to Facebook first, 00:49:44.940 --> 00:49:46.599 I go to Instagram second, and I go to Twitter 00:49:46.599 --> 00:49:49.619 last, because... There's always been a dumpster 00:49:49.619 --> 00:49:52.840 fire, whether it's a poor person or it's never 00:49:52.840 --> 00:49:55.380 going to change. But it's one of those things 00:49:55.380 --> 00:49:57.539 where on Instagram, at least, I get to see the 00:49:57.539 --> 00:49:59.840 things because it's this, whatever. And a lot 00:49:59.840 --> 00:50:03.639 of the Funko community, people who do Funko news 00:50:03.639 --> 00:50:09.480 and try to break the, not break, but try to break 00:50:09.480 --> 00:50:12.280 the news with leaks, whatever else, most of the 00:50:12.280 --> 00:50:16.349 time, they're... 90 % correct. And I did see 00:50:16.349 --> 00:50:19.389 on that list that there supposedly is an Optimus 00:50:19.389 --> 00:50:23.610 Primal, but just like half the time when we see 00:50:23.610 --> 00:50:26.469 news items that don't have pictures to go along 00:50:26.469 --> 00:50:30.190 with it, like the Wave 1, if that Wave 1 article 00:50:30.190 --> 00:50:32.969 didn't have those pictures because of the Hasbro 00:50:32.969 --> 00:50:36.610 1027 event or 1227 event or whatever the hell 00:50:36.610 --> 00:50:38.989 it was, we wouldn't have talked about any of 00:50:38.989 --> 00:50:41.210 that because I'm not talking about stuff that 00:50:41.210 --> 00:50:47.820 I can't see. And like I said, huge rumor with 00:50:47.820 --> 00:50:50.940 the hot rod with Matrix, with the potential. 00:50:51.420 --> 00:50:55.739 I can't wait to see a Beast Wars Megatron Funko 00:50:55.739 --> 00:50:58.980 Pop. Honestly, that Cheetor looks so damn good. 00:50:59.280 --> 00:51:02.619 If they can nail Cheetor's bot mode in a Funko 00:51:02.619 --> 00:51:05.320 Pop form, I can't wait to see what they do with 00:51:05.320 --> 00:51:08.400 Megatron. It's going to be awesome. And you're 00:51:08.400 --> 00:51:13.320 going to have like six of them. One. Because 00:51:13.320 --> 00:51:22.480 I will send all six to you. One. Oh, crap. Yeah, 00:51:22.559 --> 00:51:25.280 I mean, it's going to be interesting to see what 00:51:25.280 --> 00:51:28.739 they come out with this year across the board. 00:51:28.980 --> 00:51:31.920 I still haven't seen the Hot Wheels Optimus Prime. 00:51:33.360 --> 00:51:37.139 Really? No, I haven't seen it in the store. Oh, 00:51:37.139 --> 00:51:39.820 okay, in the store. I was like, I'm sure it's 00:51:39.820 --> 00:51:41.579 online somewhere. They have an Optimus Prime 00:51:41.579 --> 00:51:46.679 without the trailer. Yes, yes, yes. Part of the 00:51:46.679 --> 00:51:50.699 Hot Wheels basic line in 2025. So I imagine once 00:51:50.699 --> 00:51:53.099 I see that, I'm going to have it. I don't want 00:51:53.099 --> 00:51:56.199 the Mattel Transformable Optimus Prime just because 00:51:56.199 --> 00:52:00.079 I can't afford that. It's stupid expensive. But 00:52:00.079 --> 00:52:06.099 having just the just the they have like an off 00:52:06.099 --> 00:52:09.099 -road it's or track fleet which is like the ten 00:52:09.099 --> 00:52:12.340 dollar one that's prime with this trailer i haven't 00:52:12.340 --> 00:52:15.940 seen that and i guess that was supposed to be 00:52:15.940 --> 00:52:19.179 released in like july of last year i never saw 00:52:19.179 --> 00:52:21.840 that in the store like some people were like 00:52:21.840 --> 00:52:23.960 i've seen it at target i'm like well good for 00:52:23.960 --> 00:52:26.599 you my targets suck they never restock anything 00:52:26.599 --> 00:52:29.400 like they're always empty and then they have 00:52:29.400 --> 00:52:32.059 the you know just the regular optimus prime no 00:52:32.059 --> 00:52:35.590 trailer which i would put on my Because I have 00:52:35.590 --> 00:52:38.449 the Batmobile from the animated series Hot Wheel 00:52:38.449 --> 00:52:40.909 Cars, and I've collected every color variation 00:52:40.909 --> 00:52:44.670 of the animated series one. I still have one 00:52:44.670 --> 00:52:50.489 that's unopened. Nice. But yeah, the Optimus 00:52:50.489 --> 00:52:52.590 Prime, yeah, I would pick that up in a heartbeat 00:52:52.590 --> 00:52:56.469 and probably have two, one for opening and one 00:52:56.469 --> 00:53:00.349 for not. I still have the old Thunder Roller 00:53:00.349 --> 00:53:04.739 Hot Wheel Car. Very cool. Semi -trailer. your 00:53:04.739 --> 00:53:07.800 semi truck from, you know, the nineties that 00:53:07.800 --> 00:53:12.920 they don't sell anymore. So yeah, I'm, yeah. 00:53:15.500 --> 00:53:18.639 I'm interested to see what they do. Yeah, absolutely. 00:53:18.960 --> 00:53:21.860 I like hot wheels though. Yeah. The only hot 00:53:21.860 --> 00:53:26.119 wheels cars I have is kit. I have one in package 00:53:26.119 --> 00:53:28.599 and out of package for the super pursuit mode 00:53:28.599 --> 00:53:31.619 kit. He has the out of package one sits right 00:53:31.619 --> 00:53:35.420 here on my desk next to, Optimus Prime, R2 -D2, 00:53:35.760 --> 00:53:39.760 Stay Puft, Mini Marshmallow, Batman. But I think 00:53:39.760 --> 00:53:43.780 that's going to do it for us, folks. I concur. 00:53:44.260 --> 00:53:47.239 So, thank you all for listening to All Things 00:53:47.239 --> 00:53:49.760 Transformers. We have been Steve and Mike.
