    The inaccurate dates on these Podcasts always throws me for a loop as this has not been on here since March the 30th that's for 100% certain.

    They are not inaccurate dates, they are the date of recording.

    I'm sorry you have not caught on to the fact Vangelus stated above for several years now. Yeah, we're totally just posting arbitrary dates in the thread titles. Sure are....

    I am SO glad I wasn't the only one who related the Arms Micron shorts to the Ghost in the Shell flash's. Gog receives +1 awesome.

    Any idea why my iTunes has stopped updating with new episodes since 190?

    My Itunes is updating.

    I had no idea there was an Encore Sixshot in the making. Where's that news article?

    Some of the '06 classics molds do feel a bit dated, but there are still dozens of guys I'd rather see before I'd want any of them remade.
    With the exception of guys that got repaints when they should have been original molds like Ultra Magnus and Blaster.

    edit: I know you guys have an irrational bloodrage:) wink:)  towards the concept, but the Shattered Glass version of Circuit Breaker was one of the Decepticon's human sidekicks in the prose fiction. She eventually got powers, but she used the name "Emulator".

    We did Zune for a while, but they had some issues with getting RSS feeds to play well with our system, as memory serves.

    Try unsubscribing, then resubscribing. That worked for me when iTunes quit playing well with Bombcast for me.

    I definitely agree about Classics Hot Rod(imus) needing an upgrade. I actually really like the figure, but compared to other figures we've gotten in the Classicsverse he just seems a little behind the curve.

    The Seekers? Yeah, I'd take new ones but I don't think they're a priority in my collection.

    yea Vangelus, im a big lego guy but i also have some megabloks, yea i do think you get more for your money but all of the megabloks i have end up popping apart because they dont plug together securely. but i do sometimes confuse individual megabloks for legos, that doesnt piss me off ;)  i even mix and match some parts cuz megabloks does have some cool stuff. And actually there are caucasian/flesh colored figures

    Nice 1984 reference :D 

    I've kinda stopped paying much attention to the FoC hype because it's not coming out on PC and I don't want to get an X-Box just for that game, which is a shame.

    I was so thrown off when I saw Circut Breaker in Secret Wars 2 back when I red it. I had no idea she would just randomly pop up two panels, never to be seen of again after.
