If you're not subbed to Bot Bender Orinj, fix that. He's doing some great work with using Weaponizers, Modulators and Fossilizers to make fan modes. For instance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFxWbsHW6rA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FFaEXV2qo4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcDuJAYa4u4 I was inspired to give Wingfinger another try after watching a few of his videos.

From what I can tell Walmart's online store has turned into an Amazon-like thing where rando other sellers can list stuff too and it'll show you that after they run out of stock. It was less than ideal for my toy-hunting needs on the last trip stateside.

Added Ironworks and the Micromasters into the mix too. Now that this very dumb gestalt has gear from Siege, Earthrise and Kingdom, I'm calling it Optimus Prime: Trilogy Edition.

Haha yeah, not sure what I could do to make that less noticeable. Maybe if Wingfinger's hands were plugged in there?

Where is Minerva going to be available? I might go for her version over Elita 1.

I think the car mode on Minerva looks better, but I prefer the Elita bot mode.

I just really needed to compare Artfire to the other uses of the mould yesterday, and I guess I  'd a bit too hard. Sorry all.

Here's a fascinating music theory lesson on the original G1 Transformers cartoon theme and its weird time signatures: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Lk1d1PbHYY

That popped in my recommends the other day. Admittedly I didn't watch the whole thing and kind of skipped around, but my take was the dude spends like half an hour delving into what's pretty clearly just a poorly spliced edit from someone working on a kid's cartoon show he didn't give a poo poo about.

That VF-4 I bought a couple years ago took a header off my computer tower to the floor today, and all that happened was some already-removable panels popped off. Bandai builds em tough, I guess.

Time signature changes between one phrase and another are one thing, but it's clearly been chopped up as well. Slapdash, cheaply produced cartoon has slapdash, cheaply produced intro, mystery solved. The Animated version is probably closer to what it was supposed to sound like. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8NWqFKHxW4k

Except as he shows near the end the re-recording for the '86 movie keeps a lot of the quirks you attribute to an edit. There is a bad splice early in the '84 theme song but that doesn't explain all the weird stuff in it after that.

I get needing to give him a decently sized torso, but the new Cosmos looks way too tall in vehicle mode. If there was a way to push some of that bulk down into the saucer it would look great, but as it is, it feels more like something you'd see in the background of a Jawa swap meet.
