The TF Gender Question: There doesn't need to be a biological explanation, it can be explained simply by saying that some characters have masculine personality traits and some characters have feminine personality traits, thereby determining what type of character they will behave as, and this is decided by the individual's spark (or whatever) when it is first created.

 

This is my first time listening to you guys, and all I have to say is, you've got a new listener! Keep up the good work!!!!

 

The talk about the movie transformers animation really bums me out, cause the detail of the moving parts was always something I thought was cool, even before the Transformer movies, I always thought the movement of machinery was a cool visual.

Of course now I know better...In that, like most things I enjoy, I'm ashamed of the fact I like that...

 

I really want Backwind to exist now.  

Also, I'd have personally made Nosejob a Maximal aardvark, but that's just me.

 

I would think that kind of movement is necessary to convaey that these are giant heavy machines that are realistically affected by gravity.
Although on the other hand talking about Transformers and realism always ends in contradictory.

Generally myself, I've learned that I should stop caring at this point. My personal interest in Transformers has gradually decreased over the last year or so, to the point of maybe only being interested in a neat toy or two.
