The MOAR You Know – Merman’s Secret Shame
Friday, May 18th, 2012The MOAR You Know – How To Stand Sentinel Prime
Friday, October 28th, 2011You don’t.
Just shoot him in the face with Megatron’s shotgun.
Okay, okay. Some of you were commenting on the previous post about having trouble getting DOTM Leader Sentinel Prime to stand. There’s also been a bunch of people complaining about that over in the feedback thread on TFW and I actually posted the fix for that on there a while back.
Still, I figured I’d talk about it here since there are a lot of posts in the feedback thread.
The MOAR You Know – TF:TM MPC
Monday, March 28th, 2011This is how I like to remember what happened in the 1986 Transformers movie.
The MOAR You Know – G1 Ironhide
Monday, February 21st, 2011Some say it was to sell toys.
Others, that Hasbro was becoming increasingly alarmed at his burgeoning addiction to Tang.
Some even speculate potential bad press regarding Chromia‘s extended stay on Cybertron and Ironhide’s resulting methods of carnal compensation.
But what was the real reason behind G1 Ironhide’s apparent death in Transformers: The Movie?
The MOAR You Know – Movie Optimus Prime Scale
Monday, September 20th, 2010I don’t usually pay much attention to scale with my collection. For a transformers collector, that’s a very good thing.
I know people that have shelves just for planes and just for cars, people that obsess over vehicle mode scale, and people that want bot mode scale based on media appearance.
The MOAR You Know – HFTD Deluxe Ironhide
Sunday, July 18th, 2010I really like deluxe Ironhide.
The legs have more articulation than the voyager figure, featuring no kibble between the legs so he can stand up straight and working ankles so he can stand straddle if need be.
The kibble is unobtrusive, with a nice panel folding up as armor on the back and it being minimal on the legs. His hood pieces don’t encapsulate his head, and the armor on the chest doesn’t jut out so far.
It’s nice that the head plate isn’t the same color as the head, and the head itself is on a balljoint. He doesn’t have a waist swivel, but has pretty much everything else so far as articulation goes.
Overall, I’d like to see these improvements implemented in a new voyager figure for TF3.
As it is, deluxe Ironhide does have some issues. For instance, his forearms are proportionate but his upper arms have an elbow where the bicep should be.
Oh, and he’s short…

The MOAR You Know – ROTF Legends Soundwave
Tuesday, March 23rd, 2010ROTF Legends Soundwave is actually a pretty cool little figure. The main thing it’s missing is a set of knees. The alt mode looks great in online pictures because HasTak doesn’t show you the massive chest kibble just kind of hanging out on the side, but honestly it’s not too bad.
But so far as I’m concerned, Soundwave’s got a beast mode!
The MOAR You Know – RoC Flash
Thursday, March 4th, 2010In recent years, GI Joe has really upped the ante for its toy lines, giving updated sculpts and improved articulation to a whole cast of nostalgic characters. I watched GI Joe as a kid, and though it was a far cry from the comics it was the cartoon and its outlandish plots that shaped what I remember of that franchise.
I’m not a huge fan, but I remember it. And that’s half the battle!
You know what I don’t remember? Anthony ‘Flash” Gambello.
