    One of the things I love about this site is that there's always someone to put you back on track.

    Personally thread derailment only really bothers me when it's either mean-spirited or when someone comes into thread A to explain how a product from thread B is way superior and everyone who bought this product bought trash.

    Scale can get tedious after awhile but doesn't really bother me unless the delivery of the message is along the lines of "I am right and you are all wrong! I hope you choke on your wrongly scaled toy!"

    :D :p :cool:

    Completely agree. A little fun makes for a nice break, from time to time.

    We all need to blow off a little steam, once in a while.

    you ever think these bots wake up in the morning and the first thought that crosses their minds is how big will they be for that day (or episode)? LOL
    i mean look at the above - Powerglide. seems that he woke up on, let's say Monday, and decided to be bigger than Grapple and Hoist. but then come Thursday he decided to be smaller than Hoist.

    i pity these bots and their day-to-day issues

    I don't know.. If you go by some folks' comments, I'd guess their mouths are enormous.

    Is that a challenge?
    I can't stand when someone railroads a conversation, like that.
    I hope that alert about an image bring attached to the thread didn't get you too chuffed!

    And yet the fandom demands that their figures somehow scale

    They demand more scale ‘accuracy’ from toys than the cartoons and live action movies were ever able to deliver... from a ‘scale’ chart featuring line drawings where the feet go below the zero line.

    I object. This photo is incomplete. Needs the "The More You Know" rainbow across the top.

    It's nice I guess if a few figures can all look like they fit together but I'm more interested in "is it an objectively decent version of that character?". The real anal retentive fixation over scale...nah. I ain't got time for that.

    Lets just assume everything is delayed... much easier than trying to guess on a case by case basis
