News care of www.seibertron.com

Hilarious nicknames care of me.

Personally i am pretty underwhelmed - even if they look cool on screen... they just aren't really that evocative of TFs for me. I can live with Ironhide and Mr Tickle, but Starscream is a TF who has existed in a very similar fashion through almost every western TF franchise (with the possible exception of his possession of Waspinator) and he has been turned into a big monkey with an ant's head.

And, as such, I can think of no more fitting a fate.

He has gone from the bitch to the butch.

Grrr. Argh.

I mean, that's not even an exaggeration. It's sad.

See? Just what I said... and did:

And Ironhide is a great homage to Clench/Colossus. I'll get these two for repaints...

Frenzy is the shame of the TF history. Like a chicken skeleton crossed with General grievous...

This movie is going to kick so many different kinds of ass. The designs have officially grown on me.

The designs have also grown on me, but I still have reservations about the film itself.
