They're a little fuzzy (IMO) on the actual timeline, so Wasp may have well been isolated (maybe tortured?) in the stockade for countless years.

Is it just me, or did the second part of a A Human Error have the best homage/in-joke ever?

"Well I wanted to name him 'Slag', but I think he took it as an insult."

-Scrapper on naming "Snarl"

Yep. That was a slice of fried gold.

WAAAAAAAH!!!!

Nah, I enjoyed the whole thing. It just seems like too small amount of runtime for such a big story. The Snake Eyes / Stormshadow plot, for example, could've easily filled an hour if it were fleshed out a bit.

BTW...was Zaratan always a Aussie sounding dude?

Yeah...except with a less convincing accent in the old show.

Snake eyes hit him with the Karate from H**l.

Haha! Great line.

When did Wasp become a moron I am talking before he got turned in to a actual Wasp?

When they showed the flash back to when Bulkhead and Bumble bee were in boot camp with wasp he is pretty well articulate, and when they show him after he escaped he still talks like a well adjusted robot, but when he makes it to earth Wasp talks like a simpleton Why?

I'm not sure if it's shown at the end of "Autoboot Camp" or another episode. Wasp was shown as an isolated prisoner on an asteroid talking to himself in his Beast Wars-esque voice.

Thanks.

I wonder if they might reshow the cartoon on Cartoon Network.

Considering the webisodes are on the Adult Swim website, it's almost guaranteed. I'm actually hoping for a nice cheap DVD release. After all, it's only 60 minutes.

In the comic...

Cool. Thanks for the recap. I'd forgotten some of the details.

Storm Shadow had him shot through the neck craze. I guess Storm Shadow is evil in this version for having his own Uncle killed.

But it was loaded with fan service. Characters like Lilandra and Bishop appeared pretty early in the show. For me, the content kinda outweighed the crappy animation.

I felt the same way about the FANG Copter. It was the first Cobra vehicle I'd ever seen. (Zartan's sled didn't count.)

I laughed out loud at The Fly homage throughout the episode. Totally unexpected, and I loved every second of it!

This series is too awesome. Great storytelling. And I'm actually kind of missing Sari now.

She was in today's episode. The whole episode felt like filler, though.

In the Blade comics could they turn a vampire back in to a human like they were ably to in the movies.

I've never read a Blade comic. First time I saw the dude was in a Ghost Rider comic guest appearance.

Watch how each blade movie got grittier and better!

Had there only been two Blade movies I would probably agree with you. But Trinity is widely reviled...and rightly so IMO. First-time director David Goyer capped off the trilogy horribly, much like Coppola did with Godfather III.

If marvel really was smart about how they do the films, they'd do a movie, and if it was well recieved then group all the characters into a team movie based on a good story.

That's exactly their plan with The Avengers. After the Cap and Thor movies are out, Avengers is go. It's the most ambitious movie crossover I've ever heard of.

I thought it was fantastic. You pretty much get Logan's entire backstory with plenty of appearances from familiar characters. The actor playing Striker should've been made to eventually resemble his X2 counterpart. Gambit's long-awaited debut didn't disappoint.

I'm not very familiar with Deadpool. I know he was the guy in the red & black costume created by Liefield. Apparently other Marvel artists and writers eventually ran with the character and now he has a following. I would've gone a different way with his appearance, but in the movie universe, he accomplished what the writers set out to do...in spades.

After the first movie, the anime was the best in the franchise.

Although I did kinda dig Endgame...mostly for its Donnie Yen fight scenes. But that whole "sit there while your friends are getting decapped and do nothing when you're up next" thing kinda ruined it for me.

What?

At the time I posted that, there was no podcast about Highlander. I thought it was a bait and switch.

That's a filthy dirty lie.

LOL! So true.

The part on the arms is the weapons which i think is removable.

*gasp!* Partsformer!

More like 1:1000 I would think?

But I've never been good with counting things like that...

Pete

I always assumed the second number in the scale ratio worked like this: However many Micromaster Roadhandlers it takes lined up end to end to create the same length of an actual Pontiac Firebird. Throw a " 1: " in front of that number and you've got your Micromaster scale.

The only thing that was kind of vague was where his arms go in jet mode. I think they intended for them to go between the legs like a VF-1.

Looks like the shoulders are under the cockpit.

FYI: TF Animated Target exclusives Sunstorm & Shockwave (in G1 colors) are currently on sale at Target for $4.99.

No, this is NOT a typo!! Both are Voyager class figures with a bonus Activator figure!!

Nice price!!

Thanks for posting that, dude! I just bought Shockwave at full price on Saturday. Went to Target today and got $20 back!

War for dominion over a distant planet erupts. Dropships launch Earth-issue military mechs to pacify any rowdy civilians. The Terra Force do not expect to encounter such heavy resistance as civilians armed with the latest in weaponry fire on the mechs, decimating the battalion. How did they acquire such weapons? It doesn't matter. We're supposed to be talking about me here.

My story takes place months into the war. I've tried to stay neutral in the whole conflict...until I stumble across a badly damaged transformable mech/military vehicle. Having a natural knack for machines, I begin to restore it. One night, the mech gets stolen. During the search to retrieve my pride and joy, I unwittingly uncover a conspiracy along with the enormous secret that sparked this war to begin with.

Oh... I find my modified mech, kill the thief and end up leading an army against my oppressors.



This all takes place in the same universe as a story I've been writing.

Forgot to give it a title.
