    I think it makes it easier to wait when you look at these seasons like they're really LONG movies instead of a season of TV. I say that, knowing when 3 is done being binged, the first thing I can think of is "Man, how long will it be for 4? Let's start taking a look at the calendar!" which is a terrible idea.

    That said, I understand everyone has lives to live and other things to work on, and I certainly don't want them to rush it, but I don't want another hiatus like this one. Considering the show is only 4, maybe 5 seasons, more likely 4... It's better to not keep people waiting forever.

    Wasn't the 3rd season the final season?


    I thought I read that somewhere.

    That looks amazing. Season 2 was just ok for me, but this looks incredible.

    I call foul, Ultra Magnus was never motorized :p 

    But it is quite accurately depicted that so many people mistransformed him, his arms are super long because they forgot to push up the shoulders!

    I'm pretty sure
    he's the body horror creature at the end of the trailer.
    They said they were taking a page from the Cronenberg playbook and this would fit the bill.

    I had to google this Cronenberg person you keep mentioning and I saw he worked on The Fly's remake. Holy shit! There is so much I need to thank him! And yes, we seem to be getting a mutated person this season. Hooray!!!:D

    I wonder what other amazing things from the 80s will come back and be available again. I loved it when Ecto Cooler came back, now new coke? What a time to be alive!

    I was happy when Planters brought back their cheeze balls. Still the best.

    I think Back to the Future II killed Max Headroom cameos for the rest of time.

    Planters discontinued them at the end of the 90's early 2000's they just came back on the market end of last year as a limited item. But they sold well so they are in more normal release. They were off the Market for over 12 years.
