    if Waspinator gets into the Hall of Fame, his video had better be a montage of him getting blown to scrap.

    Since news of Dark of the Moon dropped I've noticed that the spoiler section has been a little light and often times met with what sounds like boredom or disdain (groans, sighs). For example, I was surprised that the news of Megatron taking on the truck as his altmode was quickly kind of passed over, whereas during the lead-up to ROTF any tiny bit of news that emerged was discussed in a rather detailed manner and with notable enthusiasm from all sides.
    I used to really enjoy the spoiler section because I found that the open discussion of the potential of each spoiler (character design, story etc) got me legitimately excited for the upcoming movie. This is not to say that I dont still enjoy it, it just seems rather bare-bones lately.
    I'll be the first to admit that I was severly disappointed with how ROTF turned out after all the build up and I suppose that you guys felt the same which I guess would make it more difficult to get excited for another Bay-romp.

    I just thought I'd give my 2 cents and share some constructive criticism.

    I myself have had little interest in touching on every single movie story this time around, but I have been leaving the spoiler section open to any of the other hosts bringing up a DOTM story that they want to discuss. :D  I'm not down on the movie itself, but I went through a year-long rigamarole on ROTF and feel I spent most of that energy and haven't refilled yet. I think we have gotten pretty into DOTM lead-up in past though, just not on a weekly basis like in '08-'09. Also, I don't think there have been quite as many juice-laden leaks this time around from what I've seen, but I admit I have not been reading every single interview.

    It also is a factor on my end that it seems for every listener question answered, 2-3 more come in. So not spending 10-20 minutes on every bit of DOTM minutae also leaves room sometimes for one more listener question to get covered instead.

    I have to say I dig 3rd part stuff because first like City Commander and Protector they both give an existing figure and make it better. And making figures like Warbot Defender and the Munitioner and Explorer and the retools that companies don't have the time or money to make. Still its some good stuff and I enjoy it deeply. As for the Windcharger I'm on the list for people who are looking for one, but that was when I was really nervous and angry about the cancellation. But I realize that maybe Hasbro can release him in the DOTM line or wait intil it dies down than release it as well as the Legends.
