    This was pure win, even if I do actually like Cyb Backstop a little. (would've prefered Saidos, though) I like his beast mode and the stubby-ninja-like persona of his 'bot mode.

    I hope you don't mind, but I could not resist...

    Hilarious review, however not all toys that suffer from PMS suck, take a look at Transmetal Rattrap.

    Oh, I never said they sucked, just that they suffer from the ailment. Backstop is what happens when the disease is allowed to spread too far.

    Loved it. The structure of the over-the-shoulder interview shot was really well done. :D

    The voice work on that spot was especially well-handled. :)

    You managed to stretch "his hand is an ass" into 10 minutes and keep it lulzy, excellent work sir. You never fail to impress

    Wait, Vangelus did the voice for Sling? I knew that voice sounded familiar...

    Anywho, great review! :D

    Another hilarious review, Omegus. I'd by happy to send some money to a Potus Manus research and cure fund, if only there weren't clearly worse diseases in the Transformer world (such as BWX Optimus Primal's unfortunate case of Head-Ass, Titanium Megatron's leprosy, or Armada Sideswipe's truly tragic case of Existence).

    And props to Vangelus for his cameo as Guy that was repainted into Sludge.
