    yeah, i agree. it's definitely gotten better as they've updated it, but it's still not fantastic. that said, it definitely works well enough for my needs, which mostly consist of this single podcast.

    as for the topic at hand, i appreciate hearing the varied opinions everyone has. I'm hoping that Blitzwing and Springer come out, are totally awesome, and that everyone loves them. I'm a fan of FOC Bruticus (mostly because i'm a bruticus whore) and the rest of the FOC line has it's moments, but i can totally see why others arent into them as much. they're not better than a lot of the other figures from years past. Comparing FOC Jazz to RTS Jazz, it's a no brainer. maybe it's the economy, maybe it's the apparent massive shift of people moving to new brands (eric siebenaler and someone else left recently, if i recall correctly) leading to new designers working on these, maybe it's a shortened time span, as was suggested by Vangelus. Who knows. I certainly don't. All i know, is i'm excited to see what comes out, some toys are on my wants list immediately, a lot more are on my "wait and see" or "wait for clearance" lists.

    I'm at the Metroplex part now.

    Yeah the tone of the podcast was grim. I was awfully excited about toy fair and was pumped to hear the podcast. I was shocked that pretty much all figures were kind of crapped on. That is totally cool, you all have a right to express opinions about the line but it seems that at times the pod cast breaks down to every thing sucks type of vibe. Try focusing on the positive, The comic's are really good right now...lets hear more about that.

    I will address you directly Mr.Seth Buzzard on your so called collector ability to look at a damn picture of a painted prototype which is most likely transformed incorrectly. I'm hoping your not thinking better than any other collector because you have been collecting off and on since 84'? I have been collecting since 84' as well, and as 40 year old collector i too can look at a crappy pictures and make the same judgement calls as you. Trust me nothing you or the podcast team can make me depressed and is a frankly laughable notion. Perhaps if your having such a hard time looking at the "Junk Hasbro is putting out", maybe its time to move on, like you stated, i also will not white wash my opinions on your piss poor attitude and behavior during this podcast. Perhaps a nice third party transformers podcast would suit your tastes better? Yes..No..maybe? Maybe it is time just to throw up your hands and walk away from Transformers collecting? Come on Seth! " Time for some real talk", you don't want that Hasbro Garbage any more..your Mr.know it all?..Mr. i have been collecting since 84" and you "if you don't like my opinion to bad", maybe we should just give up on collecting the Hasbro stuff?. COME ON FELLOW COLLECTORS...Seth says the figures are garbage...ooohh..oohhh, i give up on collecting the hasbro junk.
    Here is a bit of perspective for you Mr.Seth Buzzard there are more fans and collectors in this world other than just your little twitter world friends. Who are going to agree with your opinions and comments on figures. Perhaps, Mr.long time collector, who can see the good and the bad in the figures, maybe just maybe you can take a more balanced view of the figures other than "they are garbage". That is if you and your "non white washing" can handle such a task?
    The above statements are me,"Not white washing my opinions", you talk the talk Mr lets us see if you walk the walk..tuff guy. I await your response!!!!

    Holy shit, your grammar dude. There's no reason to get mad at three individuals expressing their opinions on toys because they don't match up with yours. I AWAIT YOUR RESPONSE!!!!

    P.S.

    One exclamation point does the job.

    I'm just saying, I can look at crappy photos of Taco Bell/Doritos Locos Tacos and know for sure that's garbage I will never want to eat. Based on my experience of thirty-plus years of eating.

    I don't get it. Why put so much effort (with bad grammar/spelling mind you) into an infantile tirade. You don't have to agree with him, maybe you should move on since you know the hosts, the format, the hit/miss quality of the main Hasbro line so well. Don't download the show, or skip to the Aaron & TJ shows. Why so glib with all this negative jibba-jabba?

    C'mon, don't feed into it. Especially since he only has three posts, and two of them are bitching about the podcast.
