    Vangelus is no machine like Tetsuo... but he's getting pretty damn close.

    Damn, I haven't even had a chance to listen to 181, yet. At least my commutes this week will be full of WTF (well, more than normal).

    I wonder how accurate that is, especially with this set getting such a lukewarm response (and that's a compliment). Curious if sales are not up to their norm, and they're saying "we increased production to meet huge demand" to help hide the fact that it hasn't come close to selling out yet?

    Don't worry Aaron, I'm also one of those who had my Animated Arcee on my Season 3 Shelf.

    But then I made a Lost Light shelf which stole away my Ultra Magnus and Rodimus.

    Only 38 minutes in, but I have to say I totally agree with your Armada/UnicronTrilogy set. :thumb 

    But then I'd love a Micromaster set... Damn you, with your superior-than-FunPub's-ideas ideas! :cry

    Exgraver being the arm is why I bought Exgraver!

    See, at the time, we didn't even know if TFC would have been able to pull all 6 figures off. Also, I own the Classics Devastator. So I figured, worst case scenario: If I don't totally dig this first figure, then at least I can do a Gao Gai Gar/Goldymarg thing with him.

    You know what 3rd party upgrade I want? A transformable drone to replace the untransformable one on Thunderwing/Black Shadow. Someone like Perfect Effect could make that small TF awesome.

    The only acceptable answer for what former commander should lead the Decepticons in the absence of Megatron is "Ratbat."

    And if Optimus Prime retires, the laws of succession demand that Roller take the Autobot throne. He's the closest thing to a son Prime has.

    Cassette Bat vs. Go-Kart. It's the stuff of matinee dreams.

    Just curious, is there a subscription feed for the MP3 veraion? The plug in I use to speed up Podcasts doesn't work with M4A.


    Also, I have been pushing a RiD set at @Botcon ever since they started taking guesses. I love the Spychanger idea though. I may have to track down sone extra classics to repaint.
