The Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast is back with the Transformers news you can use. Join unifier ScottyP, regal Mr. Starscream, and fallen Megatronus as we discuss the latest toys, news, and more. A lot more, seriously, because everything got released all at once. Send help.

Episode #306 “Everything All At Once” is available directly and in our RSS Feed, and should appear on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher Radio and many other Podcatcher sites within 24 to 48 hours of when you see this news post.

Here's what we discuss in this episode:

• Mug for the camera - that is, the new collaboration between Takara and Canon, featuring Optimus Prime and Reflector. These are... cool?
  
  
  
  
• Masterpiece MP-53 Dia Burn Out has been revealed, and she looks fabulous in black. Preorders are up at Pulse, BBTS, or your preferred domestic purveyor of converting robots.
  
  
  
  
  
• Takara has revealed the latest entry in the Movie Masterpiece line: ROTF Starscream, who is replete with his iconic Cybertronian tattoos. We are pleased to get another version of this great toy.
  
  
  
  
  
• "But Prime!" Studio Series Ironhide is in the news, with another voyager class budget in a deluxe-sized toy. The crew's opinions are mixed, and expectations tempered.
  
  
  
  
  
• The weekly list of leaks is briefly addressed before discussing a slate of reveals from Flame Toys. Did someone say Gilthor??
  
  
  
  
  
• Everything, and we mean everything, hit shelves since the last episode, and the Twincast reviews the glut of freshly released product before seamlessly transitioning to everyone's favorite segment: Bragging Rights.
  
  
  

Yeah, it's very weird that they dropped non SG characters like Slicer, "Red Halftrack" and Flamewar in SG when they had three spots open up in Selects once they decided to make the Legacy beasts Walmart exclusives. We could have had Prowl, Jazz and even proper evil Autobot Wheeljack instead. Then again, until now the line has been ridiculously Autobot heavy so maybe more Decepticons was just what we needed. Would have really liked SG Dirge in yellow and black (blue and white repaint of Amazon TR Repugnus optional), shame we never got a figure of him even through FunPub.
