BYG-DAMN

If Syd MEad designed Transformers it would probably be the coolest thing ever done in the history of toys, if they captured his design correctly in manufacturing. Turn-A Gundam was a great design, it didn't throw away the original look at all, instead it shot off in a brand new and unexected direction that was a much art as it was great design. Syd would give us a Prime we can't begin to imagine, but one that would live in legend. My say is this. Fire the whole lot of them over at Hasbro. Turn the transformer department back into a Marketing department, just like how thet were in G1. Takara can do whatever they want, Hasbro justs imports them, slaps on a name and markets. Takara already knows how to create great bots, we saw them in Car Robots when they ran wild. You don't mess with a machine that ain't broke, otherwise you screw up teh works. And thats what this Archer guy has done, he's screwed it up with his big beefy hand of American know-how. Damn it!

So there is hope, if this is Scorponok and not MEg. Actually it really doesn't matter who this is, it sucks a big one. However, now I got the hope that there might be a cool Megatron...hmm, but Prime, ugh!

Prime looks like a power ranger helmet. I mean, at least Prime has his colors, the tradition is still there, even if he is bad looking. But Megatron, there is not hope for him, that is the worst Megatron ever. Even the Alligator Megatron is better than that mess of a design. You want to see complicated gestalts, go check out Endevor of Microman fame, thats a badass robot made of lots of vehicles. This, it just awful, mean awful. Almost unexcusable. And thanks to his love of publicity, the man to blame is very easy to find. Mr. Arron "Orson" Archer. Somebody find his cell number, its time he was talked to. Crap, Megs is like a design I'd find inspiration for on the floor of a taxi cab.

I can't get the pic in the link, but I found Energon Megatron on ebay, I think his alt mod is a barf bag. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...&category=31392 And a thing sombody is calling Prime http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...&category=31392 The depths of grotesque design are just begining for this line. All hope has been lost. I've seen better trash on the streets of china town.

While I enjoyed Fed vs Zeon I liked Journey to Jarbaro better even if the control was difficult. THis looks good, and if it comes here I'll probably get it. I bet it will be delayed since Zeta has been delayed here. I think they are dumping Zeta to put SEED on next year anyway. There needs to be a sequel to Zeonic Front. That was a cool game.

For 50 bucks its a great deal, its not often you get a huge figure with features for such a decent price. I've seen them at Wal-mart and today at TRU, Target here is always sold out of them. Don't feed the scalpers! Oh if your desperate you can order online, thats how I got mine, saved a lot of looking around for it, but shipping was a pain.

Yes, he is preschool looking, but its what we got. We begged for steak and got a hamburge, but it still tastes good. Unicron was the one guy we thought we'd never, ever see get made, so this is probably the only version of him we are getting. Its a solid bot though even if its cheesey looking.

Let me emphasize, that he could have reached into the talent that visited the site.

Bandai is evil man, truly evil. They must have an army of guys working robots, I picture all these guys on a feild being watched by an overlord, like in one of those samerai movies. They make so many cool robots already that I've decided to not get any but those I love the most. I'm already over run with Gundam and EVA.

G.com was my favorite place to go man, there was always good gundam talk in the models forum. Now its gone, I'm hoping just for the weekend, but who knows, maybe he's going to be bought out by bandai...I hope not. The paranoia runs wild in my head with thoughts. I really hope it comes back, but most of the things I enjoyed in my life don't, Space: Above and Beyond, Deep Space Nine, Farscape, dark chocolate Kit-kats, yes, all part of history now, the history of my pathetic life. Its too bad, if he needed help I'm sure he could of reached into the talent that visited the site.

All I want anymore is a VF-2SS, that's it! No, wait, check that, Macross Zero stuff too, I want to see some of those come out too. Show me some goodies!
