That Strongarm is one of the best things I’ve ever seen. Drift’s also okay.
But… why is Grimlock green?! (Still totally getting him, though)
Because he’s green in Age of Extinction. If I had to guess.
Then why aren’t his Age of Extinction toys green? I mean, it’s not like it would’ve made them worse. :3
Because his AOE toys were made while the movie was in early stages. Hasbro basically finds out about what the movie will actually look like not long before we do. That’s why it took a while for Movie Optimus Prime toys to get swords – because it wasn’t until the first movie was basically out that they got to see a reel and OH HEY HE HAS SWORDS APPARENTLY. And, you know, that stuff can’t be implemented into toys that are already being put together in factories.
Platinum Grimlock, a redeco which was designed later, has him in green.
As Dinobots What Combine are ever-imminent in the upcoming Power of the Primes toyline, I think it’s important to re-examine this legendary cautionary tale.
“Failed experiment” HA! The shittiest episode of beast wars shit on the best of G1 not to mention the toy line was fucking awesome.
Beast Wars saved Transformers. You know what Transformers was before Beast Wars? It was literally reused early G1 stuff. Sideswipe, the Dinobots, Optimus Prime, Superion, Bruticus, all of that amazing G1 shit that OP jackass loves so fucking much. The original cartoon was even on television again. And it all failed.
And so Hasbro freaked the hell out, shunted Transformers to Kenner, which they’d just absorbed, and told them, “okay, you guys do something crazy with this, we don’t care,” and then Kenner made beasts and Transformers was revitalized. If Beast Wars was a failure, Transformers would be dead. It’d still be dead. G1 had already failed twice, and Beast Wars was its last chance to redeem itself.
anyway that guy’s a moron
My one published contribution to Transformers canon as a writer: a single installment of a strip called Robot Parade that appeared in the Transformers fanclub magazine back in 2006. Next to Dr. Arkeville is Shockwave’s first Sentinel, and the domed robot is the Head Guard (both seen here before they went kablooey in “Desertion of the Dinobots, Part 2”). A second installment of Robot Parade was supposed to be published, and… then it wasn’t.
Yeah.
The line-art here is by my friend (mate? he’s Australian) Andrew Sorohan, while the coloring and lettering is by David Willis, who would do much better with Transformers comedy.
1300th post. Seemed appropriate…
Soundwave is physically strong compared to most Transformers. His alternative form - which involves an apparent loss of mass - is that of an Earthly microcassette deck.
Pffft, obviously. Soundwave’s Tech Spec strength rating is an 8 (out of ten). And once, not only did he fight all the Dinobots and win, but they remarked that he was more powerful than all of them put together. And even just one of his little cassette dudes is awesome enough to lead the Decepticons – having an army of them at his command would make him undefeatable. I consider this matter closed!
Or was this about the microcassette recorder thing?
