    don't worry, i am working on making movieverse star saber right now ;) 

    thank you for answering my question, got to listen to the rest of the podcast now, but i just had to skip ahead to hear what you guys said

    now onto motormaster:
    i was in the ultra magnus group, i wasn't a fan of wreck-gar because of the amount of retooling it would take and i wasn't a fan of prime because i didn't think (and still do) it would work

    i saw it as these decepticons are infiltrating the ranks of the autobots, so having an elite guard symbol would of worked, and the ultra magnus head would of worked, by using paint aps to emulate the "knight-visor" effect that the g1 toy had, but i realized the whole "the magnus body is only availible to the leader of the autobots" means it can't work fiction wise

    now, the box head looks good, the prime body looks great, they don't mesh together at all in my opinion, a box head does not fit on that smooth, angled body

    now if it was like the g1 toy's head but animated style, it would of worked perfectly, but the box head just doesn't work for me

    I would just like to take this opprotunity to ask where I might find images of these Panty & Stocking toys I recall you speaking about.

    Oh, and there was some Transformers stuff too, wasn't there?

    I think the body's perfectly fine. The head on mine is fine, too. No brown smears.

    I tried to find one for months that didn't have the gross brown smears, I never did. It's a bad figure, he can't even straighten his head up, he has to look down unless you hunch his torso. Having said all that however, it is still tons better than any of the Legends versions. The new one coming out looks to be much much better. Vastly improved head sculpt and on a much more appropriate body without the over striated muscle definition that is truly out of character for Reed. The only bummer is that he's not in the classic costume. Still it looks to be a 1000% improvement. +HERBIE for the win.

    I'd known about the Nendoroids for a long time...but wow, I must get these two, if for no other reason to stand next to ROTF Megatron and Optimus Prime.

    Also, I agree full-heartedly. It would be great if Mr. Wyatt decided to just become a regular member of WTF@TFW.

    Ah, no. I thought you meant the Secret Wars 2 pack one. I don't like the Legends stuff at all. They still have way too much Toy Biz going on for me.

    It's always awesome when DJW guest hosts! I've always been on the OP side of the MM argument. In a way listening to this episode felt like vindication.

    Sweet, sweet victory. Hmmm, yeah. That feels good!

    Cheers!

    That intermission sounded like it could have been a porno.


    Maybe it's just me.

    Ahh I love when djw is on the podcast... I love hearing his unique perspective and that he and I share the "g1 cartoon is what things look like" mentality.
