    I actually came across the Ironhide costume in a costume store last week. That mask looks great in promo pics, but trust me, it's AWFUL in person. All the colors blur together and are really muted, and it's made on paper thin plastic. Bummer. <:,

    Love the new sig, Vangelus. You've got 3A, Ice Tea Lemonade, and Bugmen: the most important parts of any Transformers Podcast... and an Optimus somewhere in the back.

    Haha! I'm not hating though, I love the OT stuff myself.

    regarding the RID localization, the AWO podcast did an interview / chat with Marc Handler, way back-

    check it out :

    Anime World Order Podcast » Anime World Order Show # 37 – Interview with Marc Handler, Writer for Voltron and Lots More

    tangentially related as the matter is not really touched in any proper depth but still interesting.

    ----

    Also, Playmates did use an old takara microman toy mold and turned into some sort of turtles vehicle--



    : o

    As always, good podcasting guys. Keep it up!

    Some topics were good like from that idea that Vangelus propose that TF clubs could do a video diary of some kind. I thought that was a cool idea to listener questions the one about melee weapons I think some could put it off better than others like Mr MacGuffin, Drift, Straxus (Darkmount), and to Terradive. I had an idea of combining melee weapons with a blaster. Like for example my fan created character Ericon Maximus using a hammer, but it converts into a blaster, but I don't know if that'll work with others but you never know.

    I do like the idea of the combiners being separated characters of course and than combining as a last ditch effort was really interesting. So great job guys.

    I don't have a video, but I had previously compared Unicron's size to my 4 month old daughter. She doesn't care for Unicron as a babysitter, though. :)

    AS For Combiners, I always liked the seacons, they they were all so focused on the hunt that Piranacon became the ultimate hunter and was so focused on that they he would forget to un-combine, to Snaptrap had to set a timer failsafe thing to automatically disengage them.

    Seeing as how my name came up in the listener questions I feel the need to comment. XD I will say first, thanks for finding time (10+ minutes, in fact) to answer my question. It was fun to listen to.

    Vangelus pretty much hit the nail on the head about the WTF @ TFW YouTube account issue. Over on my regular one I uploaded the trailer to War For Cybertron back when it came out, then got banned due to the two sharing an email. The real burn here is that I come to find out that the trailer got uploaded dozens of times the next day by a bunch of game blogs, yet I got banned for doing it... eeeyeah. Point is, I do not have a WTF account now.

    HOWEVER, I do upload a few segments on my current account. :D  Usually just so I can tell someone, "Hey listen to this part lol"

    WTF@TFW Opening - YouTube Also my video for the opening~ which is really outdated now.

    wtf-50-twilightrant.wmv - YouTube

    wtfattfw-pokemonwhite.wmv - YouTube

    wtfattfw-spiders.wmv - YouTube

    ... I do also still have a bunch of segments clipped in mp3 form, not sure what to do with em - yet.

    By the way, if I may ask (since I'm blanking on if this got addressed somewhere), I take it your occasional rearrange of the segments on the show are an experiment to see what works best for the listeners?

    EDIT:
    And now I uploaded this.
