Great, now Aaron's got me wanting to go out and buy some LEGO... I do still need the race car driver and baseball player minifigure... I only have one of those little minifigure packs though - I got the samurai, even though I thought I had the baseball player! Not to mention all the Harry Potter sets I still see around that I need to complete my collection...

Edit: I just saw the mechanic too... Thanks Aaron!

I heard it and just chalked it up to the word stutter more than the intentional fowl language.. But.. who knows..

Of course listening to it again it does sound more intentional.. regardless.. meh..

Aaron, don't let them bully you. I only wish Lego had preorders, I had that haunted house on my must have list since I saw it in the background of the town hall vid.

Well great podcasts guys I dig Thundertron and might get him down the road. At the beginning I thought we're going to witness a drinking game by Vangelus with chips, but that didn't come to fruition, and I have no beef or problem of people loving Lego.

Now if I has running a 3rd party company the name would be called, "Organized Chaos" and the figure would be voyager sized Dinobot Paddles, but renamed it Surge.

Vangelus, Aaron is going to kill you for that intermission. (Or better yet, he'll make you watch Superlink.)

Aaron, on the topic of Cyberverse Ironhide, I suspect people were trying to talk down your expectations were the elbows. The stupid, stupid, stupid elbows.

Ironhide has the ball joints on the lower arm and the sockets on the upper arm, instead of the other way around. This is the exact wrong way to do it and needlessly limits the toy's articulation. Elbows built the other way can both bend and move like a bicep swivel. Ironhide's, not so much. The bass-ackward design still means he can bend his elbow, but gives him a forearm swivel and no bicep swivel. This actually irritated me so much that I passed on buying him when I had the money and he was the only new toy in the store.

So yeah, elbows.

Aaron is making me want to buy a Lego set, and I totally would if I could find one that made me feel like I was getting value for money.

I didn't even know people didn't care for Ironhide that much! I think he is great! And the pegs on the back of the Commanders I'm pretty sure are for the chest-light-up gimmick that the Driller and Jackhammer have, not entirely for weapon storage. That's why Bulkhead has random clear parts on his chest.

I picked up the Deadpool helicopter set, i think that's a really good value for the money. there's a few other sets that i want, like the vampire with hearse, but i'm gonna wait a bit for a sale.

Yeah I was looking at that set literally yesterday, but it feels more like a $15 item than a $20 one to me. I think if I do get a Lego set though I'll go for some sort of Lego City car or truck for nostalgia reasons.
