@poweredconvoy.bsky.social Do I correctly recall that ages ago, you said you got to see what the pretooled alternate headsculpt was for Combiner Wars Ultra Magnus / Minimus Ambus? And was it separate or related to the later Titans Return Powermaster Optimus Prime?

Thank you! Excessive negative space is disturbing!

I have no idea what this refers to, but it sounds exciting!👌

Why are you so obsessed with protecting bigotry? Just, why???

So the next Club operator Fun Publications opted instead to make the King Atlas toy into an off-screen character in the backstory of Transformers: Cybertron, completely separate from the original Transformers: Zone.

It kind of makes sense considering the timing matchup!

I can also tell you of another loosely similar funny story: in 2004 Hasbro adapted Japanese G1 Autobot leader Dai Atlas as King Atlas, using the G1 Skyquake body. They farmed out the bio to Club operator 3H, only for 3H to collapse without getting to release the bio, which was completely forgotten.

I like when Action Masters are grafted onto existing characters' body-types!

Blame Hasbro for the confusing packaging style of post-TV Robots in Disguise figures

True story: in 2003 Dreamwave wanted to include Scourge and Bludgeon's pseudo-wavemates Dreadwind and Smokejumper, also in RiD packaging, as Armada background characters, but Hasbro made them change the comic cameo to Skywarp and Sideways.

Did you know that not only did he learn about the American comics featuring his good original counterpart, but he also crossed over to the world before the Big Bang?

ICE boats trawling the Chicago River. This is the DUMBEST thing I've seen in my entire life. No exaggeration. What's next? Humvees loaded with armed, masked agents patrolling Disney's Main Street U.S.A.?

I am starting to suspect a humiliation kink may drive a certain percentage of the USA.

Our beloved detective! The lad is certainly overdue for a modern toy which can fairly balance out the original toy proportions. I only wish he could again share a sculpt with Minerva, but that's not happening anytime soon.

I can't believe I witnessed a passing acquaintance on Bluesky migrate to officially-licensed Trek work in real time! Congratulations! 🖖

DIS uniforms make for a good successor to ENT uniforms, but I really feel DIS should not have been set only ~10 years before TOS.
