    I didn't realise that legendary Transformers writer Simon Furman was now doing Robotech comics (since 2017 by the looks of it)... which would be a good fit for him, but just feels weird seeing his name on one of the rivals to Transformers in the 80s.

    If you turn POTP Snarl around, you end up with the base engineering model that became POTP Sinnertwin.

    Just got my Leader Class Shockwave. I never realised WFC Leaders had shrunk so much from POTP.

    This is disappointing.

    I try not to look at review images and videos. I like to be surprised, but this was a bad surprise.

    Playing with Flywheels from siege last night (carefully checks spelling) and put the tank turret on his back. Looks cool like blitz wing. Also a tank and a jet. Also one of the comics mentioned dioxins being prototype triple hangers that failed.

    Tetsaverse now has flywheels being a little bit related to blitzwing. Yay

    Never noticed that The_Damned kinda looks like Judd Nelson.
