TF: Mosaic has hit a new low

Over the last 25 years the Transformers have appeared in media from the exquisite to the scribbled and been licensed to the responsible and the... Pat Lee. Discussion of all the branches of TF media within!

Link.

It appears they're going to "write" what happens after Megatron: Origins. :bf:

At first I just thought you were talking about the art print. What are they going to write? That wallpaper print is fantastic.

I'm just going off what I see, but a lot points to them picking up where Megs: Origins left off. In particular, the slogan "The end of the beginning", the M:O (and other IDW) designs in the picture/art, and that at least half of their first batch seems to be intended for M:O.

So far it looks sharper than the series.

I thought you were talking about this...

Described by someone else as "Powerglide gives Ironhide's daughter a good hard shag in what appears to be a room just off the street."

**** me, that's about the wrongest thing I've ever seen. Surely Hasbro would have something to say about it?

There's just so many things wrong with it I don't even know where to begin. And if I ever meet any of the creative team I'll slap them.
I would have waited a ******* eternity for this!!!!

That wallpaper is good isn't it?

I fail to see how anything in that topic justifies the overly dramatic title of this one.

Plus if any era could do with a bit of reworking its that one...

The actual Mosaics themselves

http://idwpublishing.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=4060

aren't too bad. At least they're not fembot-fayre for the robo-yiffers.

Those are really good, especially for Mosaics.

Ironhide's little baby robo-shagging Powerglide, on the other hand... well, at least they kept it PG-13.

Is there any way we can get the people that made the powerglide one?

I'd pay top dollar for a confirmed glassing...

What a bunch of C-units.

AAHHAHAHAAHA! :D That Powerglide one is funny as all get out!

Clearly meant as a kind of spoof-parody. ^^

Surely... it..is..? Otherwise... well, EmmVee would have to slap 'em.. Image


Oh, and the art-print is excellent. I've got no complaints on it. The artist and colourist could be big one day if they kept at it.

The moderators have stepped in over at IDW asking people to stop talking about it, saying my concerns over what Hasbro might do if they see it are valid, and they might shut down the whole Mosaics thing.

I've half a mind to email them over it anyway, just to prove my point, and get the robo-yiffer run out of the fandom.

It wouldn't take much. He's been banned from several boards now. Eventually there should be plenty of transfans aware of his history with enough sense to get the pitchforks.

Ha, the Mosaic editors have apologised and pulled the piece.

Score one for taste, decency and common sense.

Good way to play on the ridiculously cautious modding there. :D

It is pretty retarded, but I'm very pleased to have got that Mosaic stricken from the record. I love the way he pleads for a couple of pages more afterwards too: "...just show it to Chris Ryall, he'll understand me..."

Well... Tie me up to an ant-hill and hose me with Syrups.. :o It does appear as if EmmVee had to slap the wee lad.

Hmm... how come I haven't heard about this guy called Tramp before?
:eyebrow: Does he hang out at the Archive any? I check back in there from time to time, and I don't think I've ever seen this lad around there.

He only hangs at the big places, like Seibertron and the Allspark then? He's... not the mangy lad that ran that Decepticon Yaoi-site is he...? The one we posted about 2-3 years ago, that got shut down...

I'm just reminded of that sheep ****** guy in Jay & Silent bob that gets tossed out of the van by all this.

Tramp: A roboplegic wrong-cock if ever there was one.

Probably has BAD Scraplets (not GOOD Scrplets, which is what this green ribbon is for).

Hmm, I was expecting mad spuffing, robo-sex pictures and a diatribe that would make Ishin seem like a small lamb.

He doesn't quite appear that bad tho mate.
Obviously he has a few... strange ticks about what turns him on, but he doesn't seem to resort to insults or threats after the first few pages. Alas, I couldn't be arsed to read further, since it's mostly the same thing back and forth over and over.

How'd he get the idea that an up to then JBW-only character was a G1-character tho..?

Because BW is tied to G1, and BWII is tied to BW. Which means all BWII characters are G1.

Which kind of made sense. The further the discussion goes on, the more insane he becomes.

This is for all you robo-yiffers out there - we won't stand for it in our Mosaics and we won't stand for it in our homes!

Madness?!? THIS IS TRANSFANS!!!!1!!!1!!!

I just want to give props to Rob for using the phrase, "ran her through with his throbbing robo-cock."

Which opens this up to all sorts of interesting phrases.

"Dude, this energon here... it's got, you know, properties. Let's just say it recharges the rifle."

"Baby, that's some high octane. Awww right."

"Clang it baby. Clang it so it takes the paint off."

That's it. I think I need to write some TF fanfic porn. There's a hole in the earth and I'm going to fill it.

Trust me, he's nuts.

For starters, he actually believes that Transformers can have sex. His reasoning is that since there are fembots, they must be able to have sex because it is the only explanation for their existence. He also believes that if they can have sex, it must be to reproduce. He also claims that they must be able to robo-hump because they are classified as "alive" and our human standards for being alive include the ability to reproduce. He claims that it was suggested in the toon.

He also thinks that the Dreamwave comic retcons out the toon. He also thinks that the (Dreamwave) Transformers Ultimate Guide is the be-all end-all guide to G1. Plus he says that Primus existed in the toon, and if it hadn't been cancelled we would've seen him. When confronted with the fact that the Quintessons built the Transformers in the tooniverse, he claims that Primus still built them, but the Quints only enslaved them even though they were shown building them.

Plus he has this weird style of typing:
Tramp wrote: Name, yada yada yada yada yada blah blah blah. Blah stuff blah blah stuff blah blah stuff otherstuff.
I could go on, but you get the picture.

Yeah, dude brought up that Prime gave Elita-1 an energon transfer in the cartoon as evidence that Transformers have sex. Which to me is the TF equivalent of a blood transfusion. ****, if that's his idea of sex, I'd hate to get sick when he's the only "doctor" around.
