Sooooo, do we think Tailgate is supposed to effectively be a child (at least emotionally)? If so, super creepy stuff from Groomaway.

OK, more crazy speculation here: Over the weekend I saw a Lego Star Wars version of Rey with her very often seen staff. The staff was made up of a number of parts, but the end of it was a Lego lightsaber hilt. Simple part re-purposing, or a hint that the staff is more than meets the eye (to quote so...

Finally finshed the Windblade podcast. Good fun again. I like the idea that Spotlight: Mirage may turn out to be the only true comic. :lol: But my, Dalek, what a potty mouth you appear to have! I thought my phone was malfunctioning when it kept bleeping... :lol: Roll on the next one. MTMTE again? Th...

Spooky "policemen" walking slowly along a road towards the Doctor - very Pertwee era, very good. Online opinions of this one seem to be overwhelmingly positive. I thought it was good, but not great. Capaldi was good again, though. And he and Osgood make a good pairing. Osgood is clearly no...

Urgh. Realised that, hugely obvious flaws in the figure notwithstanding, if TT release a Marvel Ratchet with red helmet, white crest and plain white shoulders, I'll buy it. Bonus points if it retains the tools from this release. Extra bonus points if a figure of The Mechanic is included. Question: W...

Ah. It's a long while since I've watched TF:TM. Ta.

Good find.

Poor pose, though. And why is Ratchet (of all 'bots) dual wielding???

The head crest should be a darker grey too, imo.

I'm really enjoying the current two-part standard... it feels far more like Who with cliffhangers being a norm. Agreed. And now, a patented RnR random thought... If (and that's a big if!), the extant Osgood survives this story, and she is actually the originally Zygon "sister", and she th...

Ironhide was one of my fave G1 characters. The G1 toy was awful, of course, and Classics/Universe did a weird cubist rendition. I just do not understand the Masterpiece figure though - weird stuff with the robot is excused as being animation accurate (which I could live with), then they go and chea...

@Cliffy Sorry to hear about Tracks. He does look badly designed. Those "ankles"!!! I was put off early by the titchy (and hollow) missiles next to the ginormous wings. The designer just didn't get the balance right, imo. The Corvette looks quite nice though. I'm interested in your views on...

Ah, thanks. Totally missed it was a flashback. Was there a clear signifier I missed (other than Grimmers)?

Apparently I also completely missed Trypticon. Man, I must've been tired/distracted last night! :lol:

Just finished Redemption. Barricade: :( I generally enjoyed it. It had a good, bleak feel to it, with the glimmers of hope mentioned by others above. I sincerely hope Barber and Ramondelli get to do a third one shot in this vein (surely the ending of Redemption is set up for one?). In fact, I'd be v...
