    Excellent, a future plastic-addict featuring mega BM Cheetor. I actually just picked up a second one at a rummage sale this past weekend (along with a 10 cent G1 Skydive with gun -- woot!) and wondered if you were ever going to review him. Mine's been packed away for so long I forgot that his beast mode is actually OK, but that disaster of a spindly robot mode is just awful, awful, awful. Anyway, I look forward to the review.

    Warning me on the day = I will forget by the time I go to bed ;) 

    I can assure you all that if copious donations are sent to me each episode, I will spend more time listening carefully to every word spoken in the editing process.

    (and yeah had to listen to that like 3 times to actually hear the swearing in question)

    Perhaps a joint death-match style review to settle once and for all which version of BM Cheetor is the worst?

    <announcer voice>
    "Who looks less like Cheetor?
    Who has the more obtrusive claw gimmick?
    Who's tail-sword looks more harmless?
    Who keeps asking all of these questions about such awful toys?
    LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLE!!"

    Then both figures promptly tip over in the ring. :)

    The schadenfreude from all of the Botcon/DICKAYDO henshin belt/TRUCK TO ROBOT teasing is delicious.

    "The MTV MOVIE Awards..." zomg ADR. Which reminds me, I was discussing the Movie Awards with my family before it aired, and my mom assuredly claimed it wasn't coming until September. We kinda stared, since ads for it were airing nearly non-stop that whole week, until we realized she was confusing them for the, watchacallitohyeah, Music Awards.

    As I was listening I had a big 'zomg Scrapper not Scavenger' thing all typed up, but nixed it since it got corrected at the last second. (Fwiw, I think the TFW front page made the same mistake, so it wasn't just Vangelus coming up with it out of thin air.)

    Pretty sure I read the spoiler on one of the news articles...I think. Am I going to go back and find it? Nope.

    It's annoying being a dealer of TF toys at a non TF convention, it's mostly guys who just rant about how much they hate "the new stuff" and how much G1 is better, then point at Kup and ask who that is. When that guy asked for Star Saber by name, I was a little shocked.... it was a long day.

    Also

    I got your Wing Blade Optimus RIGHT HERE!

    I was at Botcon did Jungle Attack Ironhide come with the same blasters as ROTF (Grey) Ironhide outside the sniper & crossbow? I cant remember. What I do know is that I want my Ironhide strapped to the MAX!!! :bay

    Trailer for Up? Sigh. That's how you know Vang was drunk. You realize you missed the perfect chance start wild conspiracy rumors about the G.I. Joe movie which IS being put out by the same studio as RotF. ;-)

    I think the Kamen Rider belt was perfect revenge for all poor Omegus had to put up with this week.

    :lol  Oh, I know what I get into. I had the belt a week and a half before we recorded this episode, I knew Vangelus had a love obsession with it, and I knew this was revenge week for all those epic hauls I picked up.

    Where The F*** is the Supplemental :throw 

    I wonder if putting pressure on Vangelus makes him more or less productive :D
