    Vangelus has said to be quite lazy when it comes to editing the podcasts. Which is probably the reason the some take so long to come out and the others are usually a few days after that, he edits them back to back.

    There's still at least one wave of Titans Return between the end of the official reveals and this leakmageddon. So I think San Diego ought to still have surprises in store. NYCC is where this shoe will probably drop, and even then we'll get the prototypes to look at.

    I was dead set on finishing my Combiner Wars quintet with Smokescreen until I saw the eyes on the Prowl head, which were really small compared to what I expected. I've also talked myself out of a Black Series First Order collection, in favor of a Knights of Ren collection which I should be able to put together on a much less condensed budget.

    I'm much more comfortable with this Optimus and Megatron than the CW versions. This line is pushing my happy buttons.

    I do miss the old shoot vertical test I used to do with missles, but they are far too hit or miss in quality. And even when they do work perfectly, you have to shoot carefully or you'll loose those things.

    Triggerhappy's on-package bio is "No gun, No fun."

    One of my favourites actually.

    Current theory is Megatron retools into Blitzwing and Optimus retools into Octane, completing the triple changers. This also makes sense considering Hasbro said from now one they would complete teams from now on.

    As far as I know, no.

    But were those really 'teams'? I think they meant more along the lines of "the Insecticons" or the like. I'm not saying they won't happen.

    A shameful ignorance of Warren Ellis' fantastic Nextwave series
    Nextwave (Earth-616) - Marvel Database - Wikia

    "The Nextwave Squad[1] was formed as super-powered strikeforce by Dirk Anger, current director of the government organization H.A.T.E (Highest Anti-Terrorism Effort). "

    Also I'm very proud of Vangelus' maturation beyond fretting over Hasbro & leaks

    Huh, just listened to the toy fair episode (394) where Vangelus expressively exclaimed that Transformers would end before we got this rodimus figure. So glad he was wrong.

    Also, what if the Voyager Optimus Primes third mode was his trailer. You could have a robot, a truck, or a trailer. Buy two and you can have a truck and trailer. How ridiculous would that be?

    I wonder if Hasbro could retool the new Megatron into an Overlord. It might be an interesting toy.
