    Young but I feel kinda old already (and it will get much worse...).
    Nice, I do hope Bee gets a redo at some point and Arcee I wouldn't say no to a upgrade kit that could give her backpack wheels or something to that effect (or even folds the front bike piece better).

    Boy do I have a knews for you. NEOLAB on YouTube did a video of arcee, in which he resigned the backpack with a 3d print that worked the same in vehicle mode, but folded up more flush in robot mode. I have no fricken clue how to link vids on this site but if I did I'd show you. Im pretty sure he has it up for sale somewhere

    Well there was the half assed excuse that was Quintessa but other than her... nothing!

    I don't care, when you think about it none of the movies were honestly all that good (watching Dotm recently I noticed a bunch of things that haven't aged well lol), Tlk is just the worst of the bunch. However that's not to say you can't still kick back with a bowl of popcorn and enjoy the action! :bay :popcorn ;) 

    That actually looks really cool!
    In the case of Hot Rod you might still be able to "transform" him by tabbing all the parts on over him, in essence a true shellformer.

    In the same bar as the emojis (the two film icon).
    Copy the URL of the video and imbed it the same way as a link.

    Hope that helps. :thumbs2:

    I saw that, it's cool, that guy is a master at his craft for sure. Look forward to seeing what he's got cooking for Bumblebee, and now he also has a Commander Armada Prime in so I look forward to seeing what he does with that.

    And to like you basically to link videos you click the chainlink button on the top of the reply box, copy and paste the link in and your good.

    Thanks! That hot rod shellforming ain't happening. I used his parts I cut off and glued em on a Gundam to make my own transformer (never cared much for anime). I plan to post a forum in radicons in the next few days on em

    The battle scenes in TLK were fantastic. Those were what I liked about it.

    That's cool, was just suggesting. :) 

    I can't stand anime either (not my taste), the closest thing to anime that I've ever owned was some Pokemon cards that I got from a neighbor for Christmas :rolleyes:  and I didn't even know what they were at the time lol.



    Is that how you do it? I always use the the button with the movie film (in the bar with the emojis) to link videos.
    Correct me if I'm wrong but I think the chain link button will only provide a "text based" link (like for a webpage) and not a fully embedded video. o_O

    Slightly off topic but this is a shout-out to whoever made this picture.

    94691564_550647525586024_8114407382886884678_n.jpg

    My two favorite sci-fi robots, one of them being my very first transformer toy, and my personal screensaver on my last two phones.

    Thanks whoever you are!

    Another "What if?" moment

    20230319_162901.jpg
    What if Hound and Ironhide are in the same film together.
    20230319_161052.jpg
    What if Grimlock did executed Sentinel Prime in DOTM.

    Before I begin let check the difference between two symbols:

    This is G1 Autobot symbol since 1984: (more kid-appealing)

    upload_2023-3-19_11-33-47.png


    And this is Live-Action Autobot symbol since 2007: (Angry eyes, edgier look)

    upload_2023-3-19_11-35-24.png



    My theory (for Live-action universe only):

    The angry looking symbol is supposed to represent all (or unified) Cybertronians like Sentinel Prime’s vision. Until Megatron formed up a new faction called Decepticons under The Fallen’s influence. The symbol is more commonly used among the Autobots, or Cybertronians who are not with Decepticons. (Or any “evil” factions)

    The classic G1 styled symbol represents the so-called “Autobot Rebels” or “Autobot Resistance” led by Optimus Prime. The symbol is less commonly used among current Autobot forces. Only some of the closest allies of Optimus using such symbol (such as Arcee and Bumblebee), but even that is considered rare.

    This is a bit of stretch. Here is the Autobot symbol that used on SS32/44 Optimus’ truck mode. It has a “G1” design.
