    Metron first appeared in New Gods #1 (February–March 1971)

    Not as cool as Vectron, banzaitron, or Fisitron. Though he is the inventor of the boom tube, those New Genesis and Apokolips dimensional portal travel boxes that pop up in the dc universe. So I guess he does alright.

    Love the podcast dudes.

    All MP Soundwaves will come with 1 energon cube, the amazon exclusive comes with extras.

    (does Seth's audio sound really muddy this week?)

    I vote for the Flash doing a Sports Label and turning into a running shoe (just one, so you'd have to hop everywhere at super speed)

    *edit* Perhaps people are getting upset about the free paper couches as they will devalue peoples expensive shelving?

    Vangelus, I heard you mention wanting 4 of the Zori micron that comes with Soundwave so you could mount tentacles on dudes. I bought 4 of the single pack versions of him expressly for the purpose of having PRID soundwave have 4 tentacles. I used the crocodile hand gun that comes from the dark matter caliber as a mounting point on his back, and I think it looks pretty snazzy myself.

    ^

    Soundwave as doctor Octopus!

    Really sick combination. how does soundwave balance with all that on him.

    I guess he could use the lower tentacles for balance if its an issue.

    Balancing can be an issue if his little soft plastic heals are not pushed all the way forward on his foot causing him to fall backwards, but otherwise balancing is not a issue at all surprisingly. He can hold poses pretty well with all of that on his back. Some require him to lean forward a bit, but otherwise he's pretty solid.

    Great show as always, guys.

    Gog, could you post the list showing the order the IDW TMNT comics should be read in? Just getting started on this series, and it would be cool to know what goes where.

    There's been a lot of discussion and speculation over how to play the Beast Saga game, and one guy managed to get someone to translate the rules. It's still a little muddy in places, and there's continued talk over how to adjust things to make it work, but you can check it out over here: OctoberToys.com • View topic - Beast Saga Discussion Thread

    whoa wait.. people consider the sliding mechanism of Function X as parts forming??
    I mean if that's parts forming than so does any bot that used a set of swivel posts to move the windshields around..

    I don't get how anyone could think that, or be disappointed with it.

    I thought parts forming was where you take a piece of and then peg it back on somewhere else.. like.. those road bots do.
