Transformers questions by newbies, and not-so-newbies

[Tetsuwan Convoy]

finally managed to get my grubby mitts on TF Battle tactics for my Nexus 5, android. But the bloody game crashes constantly. Any tips? It's driving me nuts! I haven't finished a single battle without it crashing yet.

Think I've done it, just did a re-install. The dodgy connection at Starbucks must have messed with the DL when I tried yesterday. Here's hoping.

The dodgy connection at Starbucks

What, Starbucks is still a thing???

I'd like a second opinion on something.


In this clip from the Beast Wars episode Bad Spark, fast-forward to the 3:30 mark: During Primal's flashback, do you think the planet in the background is Cybertron?

I don't think so, too organic looking. Isn't part of his back story with Depth Charge about an off world base.

Rampage leveled Colony Omicron, then killed everyone on Starbase Rugby, then went on the run for 4 years until Depth Charge finally managed to capture him.

That supports the idea that the flashback is not taking place in the orbit of Cybertron.

Animated Blitzwing: is it a forgone conclusion that buying the Hasbro version will result in owning a floppy mess? Is the Takara version better?

Excellent. I appreciate the second opinion

I've personally found the plastic quality on my TakaraTOMY Animated Blitzwing to be substantially superior to that on my Hasbro Animated Blitzwing. Having said that, I had a notoriously bad run w/ Hasbro's Animated Blitzwing; particularly with the tabs that hold the tank turret in place showing stress marks, and my first two having faulty wing pegs. But I haven't heard this problem happening w/ anyone else, so it could just be isolated to me (much like how every MP Lambor I've seen has had weak shoulders, but everyone else says that theirs is fine).

My Hasbro Blitzwing has always been rather good to me, given, I don't handle him much (If at all) but he's always been solid and MAN do I love his dumpy little "Metal Slug"-esque Tank mode!
(Not forgetting the Man-E-Faces homage )

Late to the discussion as always , but to chime in - I'd agree; that planet seems to have land masses & water, not to mention an atmosphere, so I reckon it wouldn't be Cybertron either.

At least, if Maximal High-Command were worth their salt, they wouldn't want to be testing/experimenting on Protoform-X anywhere near Cybertron or its outposts.
