    Somehow I thought that was the case since it used the special word 'Conjecture' from the Powered Commander topic. :p

    finally...I was having WTF@TFW withdrawal...I needed my fix :eek: 

    Vangelus...you don't know about the running history of Arcee and her never getting a toy based on her G1-counterpart?
    - G1-toy = Cancelled
    - Headmaster Chromedome remold = Cancelled
    - Titanium Arcee = Cancelled
    and now Animated Arcee based on her G1-counterpart

    You guys should really start putting your Pic Picks in the thread for those of us who listen to the MP3 version. I always feel like I'm missing out.

    Oh, and by the way:

    Hey Vangelus, my friend TheGreatMrChibi sent you a message. I was wondering if you received it?

    I'm happy to see someone else (Being Aaron) had generally the same reaction as I did to the New, bad, dirty Touch.
    It was nice to hear some people actually discuss the pros and cons of it, rather then just nerd rage over it.

    I'd agree with the idea that it was probably the video that ruined it for some, but you also have to remember we're in a fandom that has people in it who are angry that movie Sideswipe isn't a red ferrari.
    The mere concept alone was probably enough to throw some fans into a big pool of haterade.

    Cosmos actually transforms into a mobile observatory buggy. I asked the DJW on Twitter a while ago since Animated Autobots don't fly and it even got added to Animated Cosmos' TFwiki page here: Cosmos (Animated) - Transformers Wiki

    The controversy? I think I was the one behind it. I kinda thought it looked like BW Depth Charge. I was wrong. I never cared anyway. Was there real controversy after I left? Cool.

    RE: Last-minute guests at Botcon

    One of the few things I learned working in and around guest relations is that any advance notice prior to the contract being signed can kill the deal. I'm not sure why that is exactly, but I've heard instances where a given guest cancelled due to leaks.

    So it can come down to: Adding them at the last minute or not having them at all.

    RE: Stan Bush's new touch

    Listened to it without watching the video, which in retrospect was probably a good idea. The falsetto doesn't work, other than that it's passable. You have to understand though: I saw Marc Walhberg try to sing the original song in Boogie Nights. After seeing that anything Stan can come up with doesn't really compare.

    The Stan Bush live review was good, it actually sounded much better without watching that hideous music video. Very funny comments.
