Went to see the film. It was an emotional rollercoaster for me. Gonna see it next week too, this time with a friend.

Also JayJays has DotM shirts; 2 of Optimus, one of Bumblebee and 2 Decepticon ones. I bought the purple Decepticon one. :D

And there is a DotM Jazz toy!! I think I know what one of my upcoming purchases is gonna be.

So... did you like the movie?

by **Thoru** Wed Jun 29, 2011 11:30 pm

3rd movie? I was like "wow, the 2nd one kinda sucked as it is..."

IMO the best thing to come out of the Transformers movies was "New Divide"

I think I have a theory on why Wheeljack and Mirage (who are credited as Que/Wheeljack and Dino/Mirage in the film) have different names continuity wise. Cue Wild Mass Guessing

I saw the movie just now and found it epic as an action flick yet utterly confusing and odd.

vvv Ranting Ahead vvv

1. Everybody kept doing stuff. I know it sounds stupid but the humans never stopped. They'd do something that you knew they were going to do and then out of nowhere they were somewhere else. On top of a building that is being attacked by a giant worm thing? Go ahead just randomly appear running away from another baddie in another part of the city.

Second thing that bugged me contains major spoilers so:

The plot was pretty weird in parts. Also didn't really appreciate the ass-shot of Carly early on.

Though I wouldn't be complaining if it was Lennox.

Will be interesting to see if a 4th film is produced (without Bay at the helm and Shia not continuing with the franchise).

There's a simple reason.

Additionally, even I could probably write a better script for TF4.

Movie was amazing. Once again they KILLED MY FAVORITE AGAIN.

Wreckers were amazing, 'specially the Impala :D Are there actually figurine Wreckers?

by **Altera** Fri Jul 08, 2011 5:46 am

Indeed there are, I'll just link you to the relevant TF wiki pages:

Roadbuster
Leadfoot
Topspin

I'm hoping that I can get a Leadfoot somehow (It's apparently a Target-exclusive packed with Twin Twist) though since I was able to get other Target-exclusives (deluxe DotM Jazz and Arcee figurines) from Farmers in NZ, I may not have to hope too hard.

I still need to determine whether Toys R Us and Walmart exclusives come out here though. :/

by Shadz Fri Jul 08, 2011 9:53 am

Leadfoot has the best accent, i swear ;D

What to Expect in Transformers Prime Season 2

If you haven't watched episode 26 there are some spoilers.

Also I hear Nathan Fillion is guest starring in the next season. The crew of the Serenity is getting back together! Though I suspect he'll be voicing either a human or an Autobot, I can't really see him as a Decepticon.

Transformers Hall of Fame Fan's Choice 2012

Jazz, Grimlock, and Shockwave will be inducted into the Hall of Fame this year. :D

But who will be the Fan's Choice:
- Arcee?
- Rodimus/Hot Rod?
- Wheeljack?
- Sky-Byte?
- Megatron (Beast Wars)?

Discuss.

Personally, I'm voting for Arcee because I really enjoy her IDW G1 (her Spotlight issue was my favourite) and Prime incarnations. Though I have a feeling the Megatron or Sky-Byte will be the one that takes it this year.

BEAAAAAAAST WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARS!
Megatron shall win and leave the other fools in the dust, yeeeeeeeessss.

JAZZZZZZZZZZZ MY MAAANNNN

Apparently Hasbro was gonna phase out the Dinobots but then Matt Tieger convinced them not to and that's why they're in "Fall of Cybertron".

Also BotCon this weekend. We'll soon find out who got voted into the Hall of Fame.

by Mrsebi Wed Apr 25, 2012 8:08 pm

Me Grimlock approve.

by **Altera** Sun Apr 29, 2012 4:43 pm

Wheeljack won the fan nomination.

And apparently Shockwave is gonna show up on Prime.

I wish I was at Botcon right now.

by Mrsebi Sun Apr 29, 2012 8:41 pm

Ditto. It would be awesome.
