Should have bought the Kre-O G! Grimlock. He's super cool. It's like the Zeta Gundam had a child with an IDW Transformer.

Even I won't defend Leader Grimlock, particularly his Rex mode. Man, that had the potential to be so cool if they spent a bit more time designing it instead of slapping chrome on it.

I'm fine with the chrome, and a lot of other bits. I'm bothered by 1. Those goofy hip/shoulder joints that you can't pose 2. No review mentioned this and I didn't notice it until I transformed him but yes kinda like... Flat? He should have a nice round body but instead it looks all smooshed in the y direction and then stretched in the z direction. Still, I needed a movie Grimlock to go with the rest, I guess. Are the platinum BBTS dinobots still happening or did that become the G1 SDCC dinobots? I've been holding off on buying the dinobots because I figured I'd get those but I can't seem to find anything other than the original posts on them.

Just finished reading the latest MTMTE. It is pretty full on, I know Roberts was hinting that the DJD was coming back, but didn't expect it like this. I really enjoyed the conversation between Ravage and Megatron, there was more character development to Megs in that conversation than what's happened to him in all the past IDW issues, and maybe during the Marvel era. One thing I found interesting was the DJD killing Whirl, even though Megatron warned the Decepticons that he was the only one who would take Whirl down. It will be interesting to see how Rewind is handled next issue, cos he has got to have the worst case of PTSD ever

I am really liking this trend of third-party MTMTE stuff...but where the hell is a third-party Rodimus? I guess he won't be made unless they make him a combiner?

Just you wait, we're gonna have 9 different third party Rodimus combiners (the components are all smaller Hot Rods). All I'm asking of Hasbro is that they heavily retool Animated Roddy into MTMTE Rodimus.

An official MTMTE Rodimus has gotta come sooner or later. Third party dudes need to make a Rod Pod for him.

I always felt like there was no way Overlord could've been taken down by just being shot down in an escape pod at a distance. So of course, by proxy that meant Rewind was alive. Would've been really awkward if Chromedome went through with getting rid of his memories.

And yeah, he is probably alive in the main timeline. Overlord is really wacky, he could have decided he would prefer Rewind survive with him and stuffed him in chest or something.

Ugh. Alternate timeline. People dying that we know won't be dead "for real" unless Roberts has decided he's gonna be the GRRM of TF comics. Like everyone who reads a lot of Marvel and especially X-Men, I am so sick of alt. timelines and terrible futures that I get almost a physical response of revulsion. I did really want the DJD back though, so there's at least that.

Here is the Rodimus Combiner: Left Arm: Kup Right Arm: Drift Left Leg: Ratchet Right Leg: Ambulon Head: Rod Pod, operated by Megatron. Rodimus comes with the package set, complete with action poses of "Head held in shame" and "I didn't WANT to be part of my own combiner, anyway! That's why I'm not included." The expression with him saying, "Are you kidding? Become a gestalt? No way am I going through that," is a bonus set which includes a G1 accurate gun is sold for 50 more dollars.

I honestly think that 'our' Rewind is dead, kaput, exploded but expect a PTSD alt-Rewind to stick around from here on in. Overlord's totes still alive, though, no doubt about it. Most likely, he'll run into Megatron and the gang along with the DJD and it'll be awkward team-up time because those guys do not gently caress around. As for killing alt-Whirl, was Megatron presumed dead following all that D-Void/Deceptigod bobbins? If so, that might explain why they might decide "gently caress it, we can waste him too now"

Alternate timelines are the only timelines where someone can actually die or any sort of real change not mandated by corporate overlords can happen. I actually look forwards to those. (Elseworlds doesn't count, I don't really care about DC one way or the other.) You know Bumblebee and Shockwave are coming back down the line, right? Jus' like good ol' Bucky and Jason Todd.

If you're going for Style you should do it like Fort Max. And then your head can turn into a Tiny dude and still run your life while a bunch of dudes live in your body.

It's not really an alternate timeline. It's the same universe, same timeline. Just an alternate Lost Light.

It suddenly occurs to me that Magnus/Ambus is as close as the current series gets to a Brainmaster. I suggest he be known as the 'Brain of Rocking A Wicked 'Tache' from here on.

Yeah they have to make a new Rodimus, we're getting close to have the entirety of the Lostlight Crew. Maybe he'll be leader class or something? I also really want a new Blue Bachus figure, not that I have any great love for the original toy, I just think the name is awesome.
