    EYE-SEARING LISTENER QUESTION

    Man I'm behind, only just started 303 an hour ago. Lulling us into a false sense of podcast absence only to do all the backlogs at once? I'm onto you Mr. Ho.

    Talking about price justification for Botcon, we get Scorponok which is huge, andlooks like uses heavy remolding, and we get into Universal Studios which is $80 alone.

    How you guys are describing 3D printers and this AllSpark concept (where I am right now in the podcast), has given me a crazy theory.

    Maybe AllSpark, alongside being an in-home 3D printer, will be a proprietary website akin to Shapeways, as Hasbro finally stepping up to the "unofficial Transformers toys and accessories" market. Rather than buy an accessory (or even a full toy) from a fan's store on Shapeways, you can download that fan's model for free on AllSpark and print it out on your own, at the cost of Hasbro's proprietary printing material, like an EZ-Bake Oven or something like that. Certainly would be a huge step forward for Hasbro.

    You don't respect me and you don't respect what I do!!!!!

    And it's actually pretty close to the original idea for Brontosaurus. So you know what?

    Have it, take it. Take. THIS.

    Oh man, how cool would it be if you could get Leon Channel as a guest?
    Sure he speaks Japanese, and I don't know how into Transformers he is, but I'm sure you could make it work somehow.

    edit: I'm watching Wotakufighter's Lost Age stuff. Interesting that he's trying to throw some English into them.

    So how soon after Vangelus wishing for a Sentinel designed transformer was the Optimus pen revealed. You should make some more magical precognition wishes.

    It looks like Slog has nostrils up top on his head there, and his neck is upright. So he looks like a Brachiosaur.

    Idk about you guys, but Prid prime with BH Magnus jet pack instead of his power osier gun would make a pretty good Ginrai if done right.

    And I want a go shooter. Plus, that Silverbolt idea has been done to death.

    Somehow it's a massive amount of work that delays the release of the show.

    Could we please at least have the sectioned outlined in the show notes? Even if it's rough. For instance:
    0-10 Intro
    10-33 New Picture Pics
    ect.

    For those of us not supporting the AOE brand, it's a slog to find sections.

    All Sauropods have dorsal nostrils, and the upright neck thing is probably a lot more common than more recent popularisation would have you believe

    Interested to see the next episode with the Color Quantron photos. I wonder who will snag up that new picture pick.

    We recorded 305 much earlier in the eek then we normally do so those pics weren't out yet. Maybe someone will pick it in 306

    I do not think the price is the choke point for 3D printing. Once you get through the fan enthusiasm the sad truth is that all printed items, even on high end machines have ugly striations. I do belive that there will come a point where the resolution will be high enough to look smooth but it won't be in a cheap ass easy bake allspark oven.

    Sentinel is also doing a Dancouga so that would be a good look to see about transforming toys, triple-changers, combiners etc. all in one go.
