Yonic Symbolism posted:I was wondering if rereads with analysis of the current transformers comics in recommended reading order (Death of Optimus onward) might be possible. I can't do it because I'm literature-retarded but I feel there's a ton in MTMTE that I might be missing and I want to discuss it starting from the first issue. Would legit love this.

Steve Vader posted:Indeed. The kicker was that there was apparently a sharpshooting contest that both Optimus and Megatron were competing in, and Sureshot beat them both. Hence, the highly contested free agency. That is a story I want to see as well. That wouldnt fit in very well with IDWverse as Megatron would never have been allowed to enter a sniper competition. He was too low class worker. If they changed it to a version where he kept winning the sniper competitions like Blurr with the speed.. could be cool.

Disagreements are hardly uncommon in this thread, but generally we don't call each other liars. Shifting away from this mess....... Whats everyones favourite figure ever? Its such a tough one to say. But the one I keep thinking of right away is Animated Rodimus. Hes definitely a figure of his time, sleek as but still almost regal looking. And he was a bitch to get.

Some great choices. How about worst figure you bought? First Bay-movie Voyager Ironhide. Floppy as poo poo and hes too dark painted to make out any of his details. His headsculpt is also awful.

Rythe posted:If you all had to suggest a Transformers comic series to start with, what would that be? I am a huge fan from back in the G1 days, I pretty much wore out my tape of the 80's movie and am familiar with most of the lore and basic story as the Transformers go. Read Last Stand of the Wreckers first then jump into More Than Meets The Eye volume 1 and keep going to volume 2, 3 etc. Volume 5 is out... in 2 weeks? And it completes the first major 'season' of MTMTE. It is wonderful. Do it. Do it now.

There is an event that happens between Last Stand and MTMTE volume 1 but its sooo poo poo and lame, it is summed up in two paragraphs in the introduction to MTMTE. gently caress anything Mike Costa wrote.

The bits about what's happening on the Lost Light seem interesting, but I would like to go on record as the first guy to complain about the art. Dark Cybertron is just a lame Robots In Disguise event crossing over into MTMTE to get more readers and really I cant wait for March.

Gammatron 64 posted:Man, Overlord, if you had just waited a little while before staging an escape. You just missed your chance there. I dont think thats a coincidence. MTMTE shadow play stuff. Body swapping is a huge part of this story. Between that and the DJD chasing Overlords signal to where the lost light was.. it makes me pretty excited at the idea of some poor bastard riding Megatrons shell while Overlord AND the DJD come after him.

Spiderdrake posted:Which body, Doctor? Roberts said he has 5 seasons planned out, there is no way this is a sudden change from his plans. Shadowplay introduced body swapping, Dark Cybertron has Rodimus' body being pretty mangled and he has the DJD story still hanging over our head. Somethings gonna happen and it's not Megatron himself, he wouldn't join the Bots.

Diet Poison posted:I love it. I haven't read MTMTE since it started crossing over. Think they'll recap Dark Cybertron enough that I won't be completely lost when I jump back in? Id expect a recap similar to Death of Optimus Prime/MTMTE's 'Chaos' paragraph.

Good Listener posted:Thanks! I'll have to give these a look! It looks like they're all compiled in nice big books too so that'll make this a bit easier to track down. If you have a tablet, there is a Transformers comic app from Comixology which has all of More Than Meets The Eye volumes (1-5 which is considered 'season one') for cheaper than buying individual issues. Mtmte volume 1 also has the Death of Optimus Prime issue at the start so its the perfect jumping on point.

GrimGypsy posted:The Generations Armada Starscream mold with some retooling would make a pretty good Pharma from More than Meets the Eye, I think. I know it's a longshot but a mold used three times is far from unheard of and he's as major a character in the comics as Scoop, the Minicons, etc. Roberts has 5 seasons planned out. Dont expect those anytime soon. Season 2 seems really heavy on IDW changing the status quo and I don't think it will be as good until Roberts gets back to his planned stuff.

That owns so much. Also pretty much makes a lot more sense now that the possibility Brainstorm himself is one of the conjunx endura's he listed off as being dead that Chromedome forgot. gently caress what if the only reason Brainstorm is keeping himself alive is for Chromedome. gently caress. I've made myself sad. Need a Voyager Brainstorm now.

Why cookie Rocket posted:I totally agree there is a ridiculous double-standard, especially when any old SG-related datum sharted out by a Production Assistant for season 2 of animated gets its own drat page. The problem IMO is that there's just so much 3P stuff that you'd have the "Toy" section for some characters completely overwhelmed by 3P add-ons/versions. Can you imagine the page for Predaking if the rules were changed? And any middle group results in someone having to judge what's "good enough" to make the cut. Post pics.

A few months back we discussed a cool idea of a Cybertron pirate crew. Then Botcon came along and killed our enthusiasm for such an idea. But I got thinking and this crew would be ace, jumping through continuities, pillaging and looting in a dead Tidalwave flying ship. :metal: Captain Black Rodimus, RID Stormjet, ROTF Banzaitron, Energon Scorponok and wait for it.... Cybertron Dark Scorponok. Because you see whacky hijinks.
