Twas the night before Christmas, when here on this blog,
Ratchet and Oilslick were wasted on ‘Nog,
and Blitzwing was loaded by the chimney with care,
out of fear that the Krampus soon would be there.

Twas the blog before Christmas
Wednesday, December 24th, 2008Jangly Pals- Dancin Capn’ Jack!
Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008.
What do Captain Jack Sparrow, a bottle of Jack Daniel’s Whiskey, and a family friendly Christmas gift exchange have in common?
The answer? A drunk uncle, a monkey, and a very uncomfortable holiday.
What?
You should see my answer to why a raven is like a writing desk.
Seriously, though, here’s the tale of what came to be of that aforementioned bottle of walmart whiskey.
Dear Walmart, Go Frag Yourself

Better Transformation – TFA Activators Megatron
Thursday, December 18th, 2008Lots of fans have been impressed with the Activators sub line of Transformers Animated toys, but personally I’ve found them pretty lacking, especially for the price point. (Currently walmart has deluxe tfs for $7.77 and activators are actually more expensive!)
The only one that I can honestly recommend buying is an activators Bumblebee. He’s awesome fun, and I’m not just saying that out of fear.
*looks around nervously*
I recently picked up activators Megatron and Grimlock, and while Grimlock was neat, his ‘nudge me and I’ll transform’ habit was a bit annoying.
Megatron’s biggest problem would’ve been the gray liliac color, if I hadn’t found that amusing. Instead, I was mostly annoyed at his slapped together alt mode. The front is fine, but the back just doesn’t look solid, especially when viewed from the side.
That’s fixable, though, and no modding is required!
Why I won’t be buying Cliffjumper…
Monday, December 15th, 2008I think my activators Bee overheard me talking about how the Cliffjumper repaint might replace him on display, as a crazy tough guy bot is better than a kid friendly character.
I found this picture under my pillow…

Step 6: Another Wing Mod
Yes, another one. But this one’s all a matter of taste. Unlike the first wing mod, you’re not going to have to worry about an angry, umodded Blitzwing trying to smash you out of frustration.

Step 4: Ew, it’s all sticky!
Now that we have cut apart, we need to unite! Having been forewarned of the dangers of glue and the possible abuse thereof, I can expect you to act responsibly during the next step.
Don’t let the title fool you. This is totally cereal.
