WTF@TFW Podcast Episode 46 Online

WTF @ TFW - 46 - June 4 2009

The first post-Botcon 2009 podcast, and Lupis Convoy's last-second waylaying has left Omegus to fend for himself as the lone non-attendee of this week's episode.

We also forgot to make space for an intermission! So think of the SFX war as an intermission.

Finally, keep your ears open for some pro and totally unnoticable ADR work to replace a word.

Stan Bush intro, yay

Sweet, now I'm not dreading work so much tonight.

In before...

The supplemental discussed in this episode will be up this evening. :O

i totally agree with the prime instruction sheet thing its utterly useless. but here is something i got that suprised me how much i loved it breakaway hes is so cool almost like a valk in someways if not for visor head he pulls off a good gerwalk mode to. but if ur thinking about just getting the figs that are in the movie then break that and get breakaway.

I should update that after doing a cockpit/head mod to Breakaway, he became like 10x better to me.

FYI the MP3 version of this weeks episode of WFT@TFW does not play in Windows Media Player 10 (and yet all the Botcon ones did... weird) but will play in Quicktime Ver 7.6

God, you guys really let Omegus have it this episode. I love it. Can't wait til Omegus is the only one that doesn't make TFcon next year, and BotCon again next year...

I told Omegus that if BotCon was drivable next year, I might give him a lift, but this is too good to pass up. I might just leave him behind for the lulz.

You sir are just evil.... I knew I liked you for a reason

Is KSA feeling better?

I kinda feel sorry for him on this one...

<3 me some Juno Reactor

I have to come to Aaron's defense a bit. I have gotten my come uppence for taking part in the "Truck to Robot" fun at Aaron's expense. My particular shining moment was calling Aaron after the con on sunday from Draven's room and asking if Aaron could come over and transform Draven's Leader Prime. Which Draven, HiQ and DMK thought was absolutely hilarious.

After I got home and picked up my own Leaderclass prime, I had a wonderful 10 minutes of getting everything lined up between the arms and cab so that everything would fit and stay in place without the use of a hammer. However instead of detering me, it made me love the toy even more. It is by far one of the most fun Optimus Prime toys I have had the pleasure to transform since Masterpiece Prime.

Yes much better, thanks for asking. Now the fun part begins, paying the ER bills

BTW love the new Slogan.

holy Eido11 35:45 Omegus!

Why? Even holding back on Botcon stuff in WWG it was still pushing 25min with him taking the bulk of that time.

Great podcast.

He is in fact, Optimus Prime.

That's not quite but what I meant. I meant him being the only one on the cast missing out on the majority of Botcon (for damned good reason of course).

I even WARNED him I dropped that!

Excellent, a future plastic-addict featuring mega BM Cheetor. I actually just picked up a second one at a rummage sale this past weekend (along with a 10 cent G1 Skydive with gun -- woot!) and wondered if you were ever going to review him. Mine's been packed away for so long I forgot that his beast mode is actually OK, but that disaster of a spindly robot mode is just awful, awful, awful. Anyway, I look forward to the review.

*commensing download*

IIRC, he also has Supreme Cheetor waiting as well.

Warning me on the day = I will forget by the time I go to bed

I can assure you all that if copious donations are sent to me each episode, I will spend more time listening carefully to every word spoken in the editing process.

(and yeah had to listen to that like 3 times to actually hear the swearing in question)

Perhaps a joint death-match style review to settle once and for all which version of BM Cheetor is the worst?

<announcer voice>
"Who looks less like Cheetor?
Who has the more obtrusive claw gimmick?
Who's tail-sword looks more harmless?
Who keeps asking all of these questions about such awful toys?
LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLE!!"

Then both figures promptly tip over in the ring.

The schadenfreude from all of the Botcon/DICKAYDO henshin belt/TRUCK TO ROBOT teasing is delicious.

"The MTV MOVIE Awards..." zomg ADR. Which reminds me, I was discussing the Movie Awards with my family before it aired, and my mom assuredly claimed it wasn't coming until September. We kinda stared, since ads for it were airing nearly non-stop that whole week, until we realized she was confusing them for the, watchacallitohyeah, Music Awards.

As I was listening I had a big 'zomg Scrapper not Scavenger' thing all typed up, but nixed it since it got corrected at the last second. (Fwiw, I think the TFW front page made the same mistake, so it wasn't just Vangelus coming up with it out of thin air.)

great job as always guys!

Shit bro, I sold my extra MIB Star Saber for 250 CANADIAN at the Montreal Toycon not to long ago...... if I knew....... heck my youtube video has me SELLING IT.

Good stuff. MmmHmm.

Though what's weird this time is that it didn't registar on my MP3 player. Sad...

Pretty sure I read the spoiler on one of the news articles...I think. Am I going to go back and find it? Nope.

But that guy knew who he was, and it made you happy. (About 3:30 in)

And..

DOWNLOADING!

It's annoying being a dealer of TF toys at a non TF convention, it's mostly guys who just rant about how much they hate "the new stuff" and how much G1 is better, then point at Kup and ask who that is. When that guy asked for Star Saber by name, I was a little shocked.... it was a long day.

Also

I got your Wing Blade Optimus RIGHT HERE!

I was at Botcon did Jungle Attack Ironhide come with the same blasters as ROTF (Grey) Ironhide outside the sniper & crossbow? I cant remember. What I do know is that I want my Ironhide strapped to the MAX!!!

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH... Son of a biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitch.

Trailer for Up? Sigh. That's how you know Vang was drunk. You realize you missed the perfect chance start wild conspiracy rumors about the G.I. Joe movie which IS being put out by the same studio as RotF. ;-)

I think the Kamen Rider belt was perfect revenge for all poor Omegus had to put up with this week.

Oh, I know what I get into. I had the belt a week and a half before we recorded this episode, I knew Vangelus had a love obsession with it, and I knew this was revenge week for all those epic hauls I picked up.

Where The F*** is the Supplemental

I wonder if putting pressure on Vangelus makes him more or less productive

here is the link to the Cheap Trick song on Youtube

I feel no pressure- I decided to watch Scarface for the first time then play Saints Row 2 for about 5 hours instead of remembering to upload the podcast.

I have yet to watch Scarface, it looks like an enjoyable flick.

Ahahaha, DecaDriver revenge was sweet indeed, but nobody even gave Omegus the chance to show off the Stronger card he was supposed to use, for maximum WTF factor. The Optimus Prime chanting that ensued was awesome.

Did you shoot that dude in the face yet?

I've never seen Scarface... or Godfather...

brb suicide

Hey Vangelus, the next contest should be write a new Transformers theme with new lyrics.

Music and all?

Wouldn't have to be. Unless you really want to sing/perform the song. That would be a bonus especially if you're in a band or can put one together to perform it.

I don't know what that is but I must have it!

Was. Shared the fate of many other High School bands. Sydystyk lives on in my soul dammit!

Couple of my irl friends have dubbed it "Patriot Prime".
