I am absolutely in love with these. Transformers is at it's best when it comes up with wild new ideas and it's hard to imagine something more out of the box than Optimus Prime as an Ox and cart. Incredible. More of this TF's from different time periods please!

It's very much a shooter of it's time. So much fun though. I haven't played it since it came out, which depressingly I've just realised is nearly 20 years!!!

If you know Maz then you can imagine how much this episode falls into the essential listening category. A "sheer delight" is how one person described it. (That person was me)
