Twincast / Podcast Episode #341 "2023 Year in Review"

Postby ScottyP » Sun Jan 07, 2024 9:36 am

Weapon: Battle Blades
Grab your black eyed peas and spicy chicken sandwiches, because it's that time of year again - time for the Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast's year-in-review episode. Host Scotty P is joined by Megatronus, Kuhlio and Aaarnhide19 to look back at what was in 2023, picking out their favorite toys and media while also slamming their least favorites. Predictions for 2024 are also present and have flavors ranging from mild to extra spicy, meaning this episode should have the right amount of kick for any taste.

Episode #341 “2023 Year in Review” is available directly and in our RSS Feed, and should appear on Apple Podcasts 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:
  • What was the best Transformers toy of the year, from an objective/critical standpoint? And why is it Deathsaurus? (It's not for everyone!)
    Image
  • What was our favorite Transformers toy of the year, even if it had some flaws keeping it away from that first topic?
  • Best / favorite media (comic, TV, etc.) of the year?
  • The toys that sucked get one final beat-down, including one so bad its stink is lingering from 2022
    Image
  • The negativity wraps up with our "Worst Transformers whatever" of the year, for the non-toy moments that had us filled with sighs
    Image
  • What was each cast member's biggest collecting achievement of the year?
  • 2024 Sure Thing/Layup/This-is-Definitely-Going-to-Happen/MILD SAUCE Prediction
  • 2024 Wishful Thinking/Hot Take/Never-Gonna-Happen/BOLD EXTRA SPICY Prediction
  • "40 for 40" continues our look at each year of Transformers, and this time we each pick our favorite from the very stacked year of 1998, featuring Transmetals and Beast Wars II
    Image
  • An abbreviated round of Bragging Rights closes out a busy episode

Motto: "Well, when I see five weirdos dressed in togas, stabbing a man in the middle of the park in full view of a hundred people, I shoot the bastards! That's MY policy!"
Weapon: Photon Blaster
My prediction for 2024: Legacy United Silverbolt is going to be rad as hell.

My pie in the sky prediction/hope: An actual 86 Movie colored Studio Series Hot Rod.
"One of them even took the time to smear, “Fans are TeH SUCK!!!” in poop all over my windshield!"

Weapon: Metal Tearing Serrated Circular Blade
Finally had time to listen to the pod.

I think you're barking up the wrong megatron with gutted gimmicks. Instead of gutting gimmicks that didn't work that well, armada Megatron gutted gimmicks that worked great. That said, I think armada Megatron is still a good toy, just not the toy anyone asked for. And I really appreciated TM2 megatron being able to shed that dead weight and now it's poseable and terrorizes maximals.

And transformers toy of the year was just too easy. They really put a lot of effort into deathsaurus and I don't think we'll see a transformers toy of that level for a long time even at haslab.

The voice directing comment on transformers one has me really thinking that voice directing has been a big cause of concern with transformers movies and Netflix.
