    This debate is so last-week, it's like buying clearance t-shirts from the GAP's bargain bin. :/

    A GAP joke! That is so last year. D: Or two years? I remember you mentioning GAP in an early episode. And something about rain.

    GogDog makes a compelling argument? Though the big question is... was the pilot TOPLESS?

    Oh and you might want to send these people who keep asking these questions on Shattered Glass over to Canadian Slag in the near future so we can educate your listeners on how lame the whole concept is :p

    Holy crap, guys, don't post gigantic spam over this. If it gets too out of hand I'm going to have to go through with the embarassing request that Dr.Who/Kamen Rider/Gunbuster crossfic debates be taken to PMs.

    So, um, now that the Who/Rider discussion is done with...

    I will admit that I was a bit frustrated with the announcement that Rodimus and Ironhide will be TRU exclusives. I even knee-jerk posted to the thread expressing my consternation. I have had a terrible time finding any of the exclusives in Austin, TX mainly because it seems every normal TRU store around here has been converted into something that only sells "Educational" toys. Well, Arcee should count, she's a gorram teacher after all!

    Still, great to hear they are coming out over here. I'll have to find a bro to help hook me up, in exchange maybe I can hook them up with something, or cash. And you guys really put the whole thing into perspective. At least I don't live in the U.K. or some other place unfortunate enough to not get anything.

    Way I look at it though, the U.K. got OVERLORD and Thunderclash back in the day, this is their Just Desserts. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA~!

    Seriously though, much love to the U.K. If it weren't for the Brits, there would be no USA.

    About the Listener question, Animated can so lend itself off as Gashapon toys. Now imagine other Gashapon toys with female anime characters...


    CANNOT UNSEE!!!

    As to Shattered Glass, I think it's just hilarious. Look at most Sci-Fi, so many Science Fiction series have done some version of the Alternate Mirror Universe things. Let me just give a small list:

    Star Trek
    Doctor Who
    Stargate SG-1
    G.I. Joe did it.
    Justice League

    It's a tradition. Shattered Glass is no different really. It's just fun, nothing to get upset about.

    Now, I would LOVE to see a nice figure of Sari the Bot done by someone like Figma or Revoltech, especially Figma after that awesome Drossel they did. That would be seriously cool. Even a nice Takara PVC or so.

    Also, the RiD Prime peaking over into the bathtub figure was done by Yūki Ōshima the auteur who also brought us Kiss Players. I happen to have that figure... then again, I have the entire main line of KP figs as well and would have the others if I could find them. I am a sick, sick man.

    Gog's rant was pure gold.

    Also, interesting about the whole "Lockdown into Axor" thing earlier in the thread. I could see it happening.

    The pictures of Vortex Blurr and Toxic Oil Slick remind me of the packaging of Titanium Grimlock and Prowl showing us Soundblaster and Primal Prime

    Might be repeating myself in a way but on Shattered Glass, I don't have a hate on for it just indifference. Re-paints are going to happen regardless but at lest with Shattered Glass there is a story for it. Even if that story is nothing I particularly care about.
