    Man, my copy of Thrust was unceremoniously cancelled and I missed the window to reorder him, so he's the only one of the six main Seekers I don't have, and he also just so happens to be my favorite of the Conehead designs. However, with the SS86 Seeker on the horizon, it's not unrealistic to think that they'll milk that mold for all it's worth, and from what I've seen, while it's still not a completely accurate F-15, it' does appear to be somewhat better than the ER Seeker mold, partsforming stabs notwithstanding. I've lived without ER Thrust this long; I'm thinking I may just hold out for the inevitable SS86 variants. If I didn't know that the one on the right is the Studio Series figure, I'd swear it was one of their lesser toys for younger collectors. Compared to all the surface detail and greater number of paint apps to represent both OG toy and toon, the SS86 figure looks drab, the milky white plastic looks cheap, I'm not too crazy about how the feet and their hinges look, and the overall toonish plainness doesn't appeal. I missed the PO on Pulse, and maybe that was for the best, as right now I'm liking how my Netflix Soundwave looks better, crappy holdover arm kibble notwithstanding. For $60, I want something better. Once again, I wish Magic Square or New Age would release more of their figures in CHUG scale, as one or the other often creates a nigh perfect version of a character and I'd love to them available as options for my CHUG shelves. @mikeszekely I appreciate your writeup of Micronus Prime. I'm neither a UT fan nor an ardent fan of the greater TF lore as it has been presented in comics and other media, but there's just something creatively charming about this guy and the armor they cooked up for him. I concur that it's a cool play pattern and it elevates what could have been a relatively simplistic figure into something greater. My interest in the Primes has been tepid at best, as Alchemist is, to wit, the only one I've bought thus far, and I got him more for his resemblance to Prime Bulkhead than out of any interest in the character himself, mostly. He does have a neat look about him with his goofy steampunk goggles. I'm digressing, but, yeah, Micronus struck a chord with me when they revealed him in the fanstream. I wish there was just a pinch more complexity to the bike mode's transformation but given that the bike was a totally made-up thing to accentuate the principal figure, and at a deluxe price point no less, I shan't criticize too harshly. Kudos to Takara for thinking outside of the box, or three-dimensional disc as it were.

    Sweet. Thanks. Was about to pull the trigger on the 3rd party arms for more G1 accuracy but saw a lot of the grey plastic discolored now. I POd new soundwave at enteaerth but has anyone else had a problem with Amazon? I've seen it available about 4x. Every time I try to order it hangs and glitches until it's no longer available after a few minutes of trying.

    Now that's some disappointing news.

    Very impressive stuff.

    Solo Camping for Two actually continues into the fall season, so this past episode is not its penultimate.

    Thanks @jenius. Like many, for years & years now I have wanted the Shadow Beta for my collection. With CM's and Toynami never officially offering one, I went for it and made my own... worth it! Right now, it's linked up to a Shadow Fighter, later on I'm going to see if my CM's Pilot-less Dark Legioss will connect with the Beta.

    DanDaDan episode 24 has a bunch of different mecha anime references all crammed together thanks to the focus character being a sci-fi fan who uses nanomachines to create his own giant robot to fight the supernatural monster of the week. The visual design references a lot of Ultraman, GoLion, and Gundam with the giant robot Buddha having five cockpits and what are very obviously fin funnels. Some of his Called Attacks reference other mecha anime including Macross, like his Daedalus Attack at about 8 minutes in. (He even does Dai-Guard's infamously awful rocket punch.)

    Nate from the Transformers team put out a pic of Soundwave with a tape measure. I took a picture of Netflix Soundwave with a tape measure and tried to line it up. Not exact, but it looks like Soundwave might be bigger-er than I first guessed.

    @Thom Thank you! I've been adding stickers and some decals to the TREAD, she's looking pretty mean right now. I transformed it to Bomber mode and right now she's linked with a Shadow Fighter, I'll take some pics in the morning. Overall, the paint held up nicely during transformation.

    Next update, right now the official word for Rogue is "next Month." However, AoA Wolverine and Cyclops were both set for the 27th of September and now their official release date is "next month" too. If things hold that would probably make Wolvie/Cyke the 11th of October and Rogue on the 25th. But that's a heavily salted guess.
