Young Hot Rod never liked sleep overs.
It would haunt him so much that as Prime he chose a camper for his alt mode.
But at least he learned to drive a stick.

Action Pose – Kup In Bed
Friday, March 18th, 2011The 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?
Hulk vs Iron Man
Wednesday, February 16th, 2011This is the set up on top of my video shelf. It’s not exactly an action pose, but sometimes the anticipation of one is better.
Action Pose – Highbrow vs Terradive
Thursday, November 11th, 2010Simmons Was Right! – Sidearm Sideswipe
Tuesday, October 26th, 2010Agent Simmons of Sector 7 – a sane man to some, a fanatic to others, and a purveyor of delicious deli meat to all!
During his time protecting the free world from frozen doom, Agent Simmons became increasingly aware of patterns- a symbol here, a hieroglyph there, a fossilized rubber ducky found in the vicinity of Mount St. Hillary– patterns which could tie directly into maybe possibly indicating that nbes might have visited earth before the arrival of nbe1 or even the cube!
But did anyone believe him?
Not even the Stonecutters!
Not even Sector 7, who keeps Atlantis off the maps, keeps the Martians under wraps, robs cave fish of their sight, and rigs every Oscar Night!
But we do know…
Simmons was right!

Action Pose – Optimus vs Starscream
Friday, September 24th, 2010In the previous post, I mentioned my appreciation of Voyager Leader Prime (Hunt for the Decepticons voyager Battle Blades Optimus Prime) being in scale with deluxe Ironhide and almost in scale with deluxe Ratchet. I also mentioned that I like jet transformers being bigger than car transformers, and Decepticons being bigger than Autobots.
That brings us to today’s Action Pose.
Action Pose – Optimus and Roller
Tuesday, September 7th, 2010When I was a kid, instead of the original Optimus Prime toy I had the powermaster version. It was a mighty brick of a toy, with an Optimus that could combine with his trailer, but there was no Roller with the set.
So, outside of a few G1 episodes, I didn’t pay much attention to Optimus’s third component. And aside from some more recent comics, most Transformers series did too.
But when TFC came out with their Battle Rollar figure, I found myself intrigued with the concept. While fragility issues and a high price point kept me from buying one of those, Hasbro would eventually give me a better substitution.
