awesome. came out just in time for my travels this weekend.

Vangelus, you have to understand the most appealing thing about Transformers Kreons. All you need is the robot head, and you can make whatever you want with the rest of it. Kreon Devastator needn't take a long time to build. Just make your own SD Devastator using the head, fists, feet, and maybe five blocks connecting them.

Vangelus quote:
"I can't beleve you lost, we're gonna have to pull out of the Proxima sector now!"

Wing Commander 3. It's in there. Did you know, or was it just freak chance?

"the runs are DIE AH RE AH" Oh Vangelus, you so crazy.

I not only <3 the Mark Hamill Wing Commander games...but I also just watched Giantbomb do WC3 in their Random PC Game feature.

Just thought i'd let you guys know, RiD soundwave is really good

I can't help but feel like this whole TFP First Edition vs RID line is a bit of a bait and switch on Hasbro's part. I know that's not a realistic way of looking at it, and is likely not true, but that's how it feels.

I'm honestly thinking that I'll probably pass over a lot of the TFP line in the same why I did with DOTM, maybe picking up 2 or 3 out of the line that strike my fancy. Like Wheeljack. Even if one was thinking to skip the whole line, Wheeljack still looks like he alone is worth picking up.
But those upcoming Optimus figures...Yuck. If the second Bulkhead Voyager looks just as bad as the Powerizer Prime, I think that'll be the nail in the coffin for me. I mean seeing those second Optimus figures was like a punch to the gut. Especially after trying and failing to acquire the FE Voyager.

I STAND BY MY LOVE OF TRANSFORMING BURGERS. It is not my fault the world is blind to the best part of Kamen Rider. If you bugmen guys were TROO FANZ, you'd understand.

Somebody out there is screaming into their headphones MIGHTY ORBOTS...

... YOU HEARD ME?!?!?

It makes me sad to think that Canada is no longer that special place where we get Transformers before the US does

Take heart. Canada will always be the place where Shawn Michaels gets booed no matter how hard Vince pushes him, and nobody can take that away from you.

First edition is gone!

Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Gurren Lagann meets Alternity, just saying. The pure absurd, over-the-topness of that meeting would be pure fangasmic goo.

Prid, sounds like grid.

Is "edition" on the packaging? :O

No, it just says "Robots In Disguise" with "Transformers Prime" on the top.

That said it says Deluxe and Voyagers on the packaging not Revealers and Powerizers.

Good episode. A bit surprised Vangelus didn't make fun of us Americans for being first editionless.

I'm not sure if I heard, but is there more Eradicons on the way?

vangelus seriously thought i was trolling? I genuinely was not sure if i sent it to the right place, dang i really got to get a fourze driver

No, I mean if Vangelus was buying more. I've been hearing about his army dream the past few episodes...

He did state in WWGTW that he had another Vehicon coming with another Fourze Astro Switch set, but it looks like he's run out of options otherwise.

For the First Edition mold, anyway. There's still that RID version.

Excuse my ignorance, but what is WWGTW?

And with Vangelus's words this episode, the RiD Vehicon will sell out in a day.

I was one of the guys screaming into my headset about a Mighty Orbots crossover...

Could a city-former Optimus stand on hollow legs? Somebody calculate the moments of inertia for his leg cross section while I look up the modulii of compression for various forms of plastic.

What We Got This Week.

And as I looked at it further it appeared that the backs of the legs weren't hollow. The blurry ass blurry picture looked like it had decent ratchet knees, and I don't know how that would work with hollow legs. I'm thinking it is more like the way that the Ark is hollow.

"Wayward Wafflings (of) Gloating Toy Whores"

Really? Damn, I'm an idiot.

The black Prime and Megs from Fall of Cybertron are pretty awesome! Well worth the over inflated price I paid for them.

I just got the RiD deluxes and voyagers. I really don't understand the Bumblebee hate. I think it's a really nice toy.

I don't think Vangelus understands how the Underground Railroad worked.

I like his version though, it means i get rare ass toys

Finally caught up on podcasts..

I don't look at SG drift like deadpool. Instead I look at it as classics knock out.

I think Vangelus should just do the FE reviews anyway. Even if we don't get them it'd be nice to see them up close.

On the subject of that listener question, I wouldn't say the fandom is spoiled. Definitely some delusional entitlement gong around these days, but not spoiled.
