Still a little plain for me, the same problem the dotm one had, I think I'll be sticking to my Darksteel

No they're crosshairs from age of extinction

At least it seems to have the metallic paint the original desperately needed, plus a better weapon.

I like the deco but I still prefer Sidearm Sideswipe - I actually rather like the G2 like the Blue Sidearm Sideswipe that is covered in sponsor logos too. The FAB repaint is quite a nice colour too.
I was always a little disappointed in the Human Alliance - I think the gimmick harmed the toy more than most on that one.
With all this propensity for Retooling I kinda wish they'd do that to Voyager Ratchet he's not terrible but a few tweaks would help him a fair bit - even changes to the arms and weapons or a new head sculpt would be a start.
I guess it won't be to many months before the hype machine for the next Live action Movie and indeed the new animated movie begins again.
I hope they learned so lessons with AOE - such as early Power battlers were less popular than FAB was when taken as a whole - when judged by how many they made compared to how many they had left.

I just hope they learn to put more than two domestically available Decepticons out.

He's an exclusive, in Japan. They are usually standalone releases. What venue is he, anyway? AEON like Wheeljack before him?

But isn't that how the old samurai adage goes? 'The best way to win a sword fight is to use an ak-47 (or similar)'?

"One skilled with a sword means little to a man who can kill you with a twitch of his finger."

I was wondering the same. Will HLJ, Amiami, etc be carrying this?

Ah, ok. Maybe shipping from RK won't be too bad for a smaller item like this. I do like the silver finish over the gray plastic on the DOTM one.

Hey good folk, not sure if we have seen these already, but hey, have a couple of photos courtesy of @gikogakodo/Twitter of the rather silvery redeco of Deluxe Movie Sideswipe.

Actually no, that's the new Movie Advanced silver redeco of DotM Sideswipe. See how it's all shiny compared to this:

In a scene where John Travolta is hiding in his idol's house, under the child's bed, he sees an Age of Extinction Grimlock toy on the floor (looks like Flip and Change Grimlock), reaches out and brings it close to him. Why Limp Bizkit felt the need to put such a spotlight on this specific toy is unclear, as it does not come back in the film.
By all means this is not an endorsement for the film, and I do not recommend anyone to watch it. All you need are the screenshots below. Enjoy.

Well there is news about concept art from bumblebee, the card game, burning convoy happening...buuuuuuuut I’m sure those will get covered 2 weeks after every other site has covered them like the standard seibertorn news lately. Let’s focus on this obscurity. Should we talk about Nautilator being in The Disaster Artist or was that an already obscure article when that happened?

If you have time to help us write those articles, Randomhero, please write me a PM and I can show you the ropes. Would be glad to have you on our team.
And yes, if someone had sent in about Nautilator, we would have newsed it. We usually news such things.

Do you know why I prefer this website over all the other ones? Because unlike most of the other sites, people here generally maintain positive attitudes, treat each other civilly and aren't rude. Very seldom does a thread breakdown into insults and whining.

This, I despise the current trend of the majority of fandom sites being populated with negativity.
This was a great article Will, I did not know about this guest star appearance from our orange Dinosaur, it's always neat seeing things you recognize in movies regardless of the quality of the actual movie/show.

I didn't.
But now I do!
On a side note, is this article "irrelevant"?
Basically, yes, but it did put a big wide smile on my face and that count for a lot.
