Better Transformation – Human Alliance Leadfoot

Monday, October 17th, 2011

Human Alliance Leadfoot is one of the best Human Alliance figures.

Yes. Really.

What’s that? You’ve heard a lot of people hate the figure and think it’s terrible? Or you’re one of those people?

WELL SCREW YOU THEN! Well perhaps there are some things you haven’t considered.

Action Pose – Kup In Bed

Friday, March 18th, 2011

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.

The MOAR You Know – G1 Ironhide

Monday, February 21st, 2011

Some 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?

Headrobots Hothead Detailed Pictorial Review

Monday, November 8th, 2010

Headrobots is a 3rd party company, not officially endorsed by HasTak, and thus far has done two primary releases, that of the lackluster Snake mold, and more recently Hothead.

The cost and sometimes questionable quality of 3rd party products has kept me from purchasing very many. I have and can easily recommend Fansproject’s Bruticus set, and I’ve got the targetmaster for the upcoming Rodimus set on preorder, but thus far Headrobots only release to even tempt me was Hothead.

As I’ve not ordered anything else from them, I waited until a few reviews had shown up online before ordering one. However, most of them have been nothing but people happily saying the set looks great. I can tell the set looks great, but what is it really like?

Is Headrobots Hothead really worth it?

Simmons Was Right! – Sidearm Sideswipe

Tuesday, October 26th, 2010

Agent 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!
