    The Orion Pax spotlight seems like it might be worth picking up. The faceplate bit was great. Also, I didn't know Alpha Trion turned into the Tumbler, lol...

    Surprised that Needlenose isn't in jail--we hadn't seen him for a while, and it didn't look like he was going to get off scott-free for attacking Prowl and friends back in RiD #5. Also surprised that he seems to be stepping into sort of a leadership role--curious to see what's in store for him. And the Megatron plotline definitely isn't going in the direction I thought it was going to, haha.

    And look! Some expansion on Alpha Trion and Metroplex's backgrounds in the Pax Spotlight! And an explanation of Pax's design in Spotlight: Blurr! Sweet.

    So...why is Alpha Trion still wearing the cloak and mask he was wearing in the Ironhide mini?

    Wouldn't he just be walking around like normal on pre-war Cybertron?

    Alpha Trion is the Tumbler. This is amazing.

    Orion Pax is still 100% cooler than any Optimus or other Orion Pax (FFFFFFPrime) ever. This is amazing.

    I'm sorry, barber. I recant my disappointment to RiD.

    Royally fucking up the single most iconic character of the franchise? No, I can't get over that.

    Pffffffft nah I don't feel like it.

    God I hope not. His stealth bomber body was fucking awesome.

    Man Wednesday can't come fast enough. IDW has done some really great things in the last year and I hope it doesn't come off the tracks with the return of Megatron. I never new Transformers without the war could be so good.

    If anything, this is an excuse to have him rebuilt into his WfC and/or FoC body.

    I'd imagine his FOC body, actually.

    I feel the same way with Animated, but you don't see me dumping on that show every chance I get. I just look elsewhere for what I wanted and left Animated to the people who liked it, just like I did with Voltron Force and Ultimate Spiderman.
