    Been looking into Sky Byte since he's popping up in RiD soon.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DplkFnLBNCA

    I skipped RiD the cartoon because it always seemed sucktacular, but why did no one tell me it had a flying, singing robotic shark?

    I just spent $15 to get my hands on this bad boy.

    I will end all RID haters

    Between Sky-Byte, Scourge, Side Burn, the rail team, Ultra Magnus and Omega Prime, RID was a fun cartoon, if silly
    Helluva contrast to beast machines

    The repaints of the toy line were great too

    I found new Bot Shots today. Picked up Mirage and Brawl. Brawl looks surprisingly nice, even though I wasn't sure about him at first. Mirage is an amazing blue. The same blue as this tiny Cyberverse Evac I grabbed. He's actually a great toy, looks good in both modes, simple transformation.

    No new Prime Deluxes yet, I had them check for me and everything.

    Has BBTS always done the thing where you can only get the shortpacked one in a wave when it first comes out via a 3-pack?

    Because blarg, that's annoying.

    Yes. Either that or a whole case.

    Yes. Either that or a whole case.

    AND for either .02 (FoC 3-pack) or 6.02 (Prime Vehicon 3-pack) more than the figures would sell for individually if they'd just list them that way.

    Stupid early shortpacked seller's market with its stupid preorders of stupid things that I stupid want packed together with stupid things that I stupid don't. Stupid.

    Yeah, I'm just gonna skip on FoC Optimus since I have WfC Optimus and get FoC Ultra Magnus

    and that's probably the only FoC I'll skip on

    Why couldn't we have had a cartoon that takes place entirely on cybertron with these designs with an awesome story

    Show a young, charismatic megatron on the street corners of Kaon, rallying people against the caste system

    A conflicted, inexperienced Orion Pax who has only read and never led

    Season 1s finale could be the dramatic moment where Megatron turns to violent methods and the war starts in earnest

    (and both megatron and prime could be voiced by David Kaye)

    what are the chances that bumblebee is going to get a redeco or something in the 2012/13 waves

    debating on whether or not to get a 2010 one

    so I can continually reenact him getting shot by megatron

    I'd prefer by-the-book police captain Pax.

    Man, the Roberts two parter was good.

    By the book police captain pax is also great

    I just like the idea of Kaye's voice for an unsure pax, as opposed to the youthful, mostly confident barring issues like blackarachnia one from animated

    And we need Whirl as Bad Cop. Roberts has really gotten some mileage out of the guy.

    The pictures are nice, but as with any third-party product, I need to see a price, something to give it a sense of scale, and a set of instructions.

    ...I guess that goes for first-party stuff, too.

    doesn't look that much better than classics/masterpiece megatron and will likely cost a hundred times as much

    fans will nevertheless laud it as being a zillion times better than anything hasblow puts out

    Hey, I didn't say, "I would like it if Bumblebee blah blah flesh-plot-exposition."

    That's just what would happen. A younger, smaller (somehow) protoform (somehow) Bumblebee learning about Cybertronian society and teaching us that heroism can be born in even the least likely of places. Or something.
