    Hah since I had my kidney transplant in July and am still job hunting I have all the time in the world. Think I listened to ep 1-5 all in one day when I started. Granted I have slowed down a lot since then lol

    Protoman!!!

    I need my fix of Proto. There hasn't been a Canadian Slag episode recently :( 

    What's been up with the Soiler Section warning title. They've been (seemingly) random phrases for the Past 6 months.

    Edit: I don't want to be an Aaron and whip out my knowledge but It'll bother me if I don't say it. Vangelus made it sound like the Pykrete boat thing was recent, It actually came about in WWII when someone suggested making boats out of ice. He could be referring to something more recent but that's all I know.

    Aaron mentioned that TfAnimatedfan.

    I really like Protoman on these episodes. Here's a vote for more.

    Proto mentions the autobots in prime rely on Raph, watch Desertion of the Dinobots, oh look its Carly, oh look she is on Cybertron! oh look she is using Cybertronian machinery.. wait what??? wasn't that her second episode??? I know she is supposed to be smart and all, but man.:lol 

    Combs is also The Leader on Avengers.. I think!

    Edit: boy I wasn't paying attention when I wrote this one :(

    I just finished stickering my newly arrived Wave 2. Prowl actually isn't bad at all but Jetfire's a pain in the ass. I will one day punch whoever thought 2D stickers on 3D-sculpted faces was a good idea.

    I gotta say Protoman was needlessly harsh on Raph and Jack.

    That said, I'll forgive him, and give props, as he is the only other fan, that I know of, that can actually admit that Miko is in fact the in show personification of the Transformers fan. Albeit the completely mental type, but still.

    Okay, Protoman... I could have dealt with you not digging Jack or Raph... but when you tell us who you DO like...

    ... I don't know you... I don't wanna know you... and you make me feel dirty.

    No Vangelus no! I can't buy that awesome trainformer! I only have 300 dollars in my bank account right now and I need to spend those on Christmas gifts and food for college! Damn you and your incredibly persuasive voice!

    Vangelus, you are not the only one who cares about Jeffery Combs, for the entire month of October Herbet West was my avatar.

    I love Re-Animator, but kids you really shouldn't check out that movie. Aside from being pretty gory, it has one of the most f'ed up scenes I have ever seen in a movie that involves a severed head giving... never mind. Anybody above 18 though, check the movie out because it is awesome and hilarious and Jeffery Combs freakin' rules. He almost rules as much as Bruce Campbell. If we had a Bruce Campbell transformers with a chainsaw hand I would probably die for nerd overdose.

    to all those complaining on length, yeah, shush your mouth! THE LONGER THE BETTER

    i LOVE how the newer episodes are way long, they are way more entertaining, i've been re-listening to every podcast (on number 10 right now) and the hour length just makes me sad.....the longer the better i say!

    re: The Length

    You don't have to listen to the entire thing in one sitting. :lol  It's extremely rare that I listen to even a 1hr podcast in one go unless I'm doing sitting-in-a-chair office work.

    So, just how desperate are you for that Tigertron/Inferno set?

    I reckon I can dig one up still in Australia. I swear I saw them when I was looking for Thunderwing today. Not just one. A nice, big pile

    That's a filthy dirty lie!

    But not as dirty as me so it seems.

    just to comment on attacktixs...wal-mart, single handledly KILLED the transformers line of them.....they refused to carry them after a short while, so yeah, death before we got the g1 set (i would KILL to get that limited released second wave set with g1 prime and megatron, i LOVE the transfrormers attacktics)

    edit: we have had a "table top" game like what was suggested, with cards, back during beast wars. my entire childhood almost consisted of playing this game with my brothers (i need to buy this eventually to play again)

    http://cgi.ebay.com/TRANSFORMERS-BE...404?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4aa6ea79f4

    it basically consisted of one team with maximals and one team with predacons. you started with a team of 3 in beast mode and each card had the text specs, and when you were to battle both flip a card, and this is when you could "mutate" into robot or back to beast mode and they battle. it was determinded with tech spec numbers, each side had six numbers, each with a corresponding color with each word (like say intellegience was green and speed was purple). when battling each would flip a card, say jimmy got a green card, and the green number on the card was 6, but billy got a purple card and his number was 4, waspinator just died

    to get better rules and stuff, check it out here on the wiki

    http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Beast_Wars_Transformers_Mutating_Card_Game

    it really is a fun game not many people know about (i did though, and i loved it and actually had two sets at one time....what happened, idk, but i got at least a character card of tigatron around here SOMEWHERE)

    EDIT: AND PROTOMAN KICKED MY ASS!

    i apolagize cause i paused it to post this and then i continued and protoman totally scoped me :lol
