Eric Schwartz is a known Transformers fan, and as a result, the main character of his furry online strip "Sabrina Online" is a huge Transformers fan. Naturally, there are lots of references, cameos and in-jokes over the time. One of the recent strips, however, features what would best be described as "Shortpacked!" humor...

I'm sorry, I thought you meant a different type of furry online strip.  

BTW, they do suck worse than suck itself. Rattrap007 is using that as a sig pic.

 

Gee.. i think I've seen that before.. Yup! I've had this sig for about 4 days.

I put it up because I'm kinda tired of everyone bitching aobut the Movie designs. A lot of fans can never deal with change. They bitch about something, Hasbro gives them what they want, only to have the fans bitch about the very thing they asked for. I love the new looks for the movie. Very cool and alien.

 

Yeah i noticed that in your sig rattrap...I think it's spot on EXACTLY true. extremely sad...but true.

 

Sort of agreed.

Still don't know why people didn't like RID, though...the toys I mean.

 

I think people didn't like the kibble on all the bot modes. They were too much of a stick figure... etc..

 

The comic kept mocking the odd request for metal TFs, which is funny because Hasbro gave us that as well, in the form of Titanium... and people bitch yet again.

 

Well of course. Because the metal they gave us in Titanium severly hampers the toys. Prime wouldn't be nearly as floppy if his limbs weren't weighted down by a metric ton of metal. All for what? So people can get nostalgic when they hold the things?

 

This was posted before, if I remember correctly. Whether it was by rattrap007 or someone else...I dunno.

 

Hehe funny.

 

It's a good way to fill up five panels with lots of handwritten text!  

 

Ye gods, what an ugly strip. Simplicity in comic strips has become a lost art.

 

I'm not saying there's no good reason for complaints about Titanium, but with the premise of the comic, it seemed vastly overlooked.

Bandai's Chogokin lines have done an incredbile job of knowing where to put metal and how much, while this is something of a newer thing for Hasbro (especially with the bots transforming). Might take a while to work out the kinks.

 

Thats a rather insensitive thing to say. I'd add something more to my reply, but I dont know if its supposed to be common knowledge, so I wont.

 

eric schwartz sucks because he wont give me inking tips.

come on man! fess up!

 

When did you ask? I don't remember.  

 

Waiiiiitaminute...

 

Don't tell me you guys never noticed that Feralstorm is Eric Schwartz?

 

 

This is precisely why Aaron Archer should tell people like you to be quiet.

I mean come on, they put a lot of time and effort into trying to please us when they don't even have to. You know what, you don't like the figures fine, don't buy them, no one's twisting your arm.

 

Sounds very similar to the movie designs, hmm that could be why people are having problems with them
