I'm kinda curious about your guys' highs and lows collection-wise. So on that topic, I ask...

1. What's the one figure in your collection you're most proud of? As a subset, what's the rarest/most expensive figure you own?

2. What's the one figure that you wish you had the most?

3. What's the figure you regret buying the most, and why?

And because we're all thinking it...

4. What's the one figure, minicons included, you wish Counterpunch DIDN'T own?

RIDDLE ME THIS, TWINCAST

So these three dyslexic men walk into a bra... oh HAHAHA I am so funny

A quick one for the gang.

Out of all the Botcon/TFCC fiction that has come down the pipeline which one is your favourite? Eg, Shattered Glass, Wings of Honour, etc.

Love the twincast, keep up the good work you guys.

Long time listener, first time poster.

I'd like to ask the Twincast some comic-related questions, for those of you who like reading 'em (don't want to assume anything!) These don't have to be specific to publisher (Marvel, Dreamwave, IDW, etc)

1. Who is your favourite comic book author and why?
2. Who is your favourite comic book artist and why?

That is all... for now :D

:-? Unusual question but regardless.

The year is 2015, you wake up from a cryosleep to realize you've survived the events of 2012 and stumble into a decimated world where you're forced to fend for yourself. After finding food,supplies and setting up a strong hold you stumble across a toys'r'us or a pawn store. What transformer do you shed a tear when you find him/her in the remains of a shattered humanity?

Now know, I don't think anythings happening this is just for fun.

That said,mine?

I "second" these 2 questions. The response to the first one would be hilarious, and the response to the second one would be quite interesting, I think.


I third these

I apologize if this is on a previous page somewhere...

What American Transformers cartoon has the best intro and why? This question will obviously allow different seasons, like G1's and Beast Wars' different Seasons 1,2, and 3 intros.

(My vote goes to either G1 Season 3 or Beast Wars Season 2.)

This one's a bit of a multi-part question.

What are ya'll opinions about the Japanese G1 cartoons and the remaining fiction that carried on after them (before Beast Wars came, though). Specifically,
  • What do think of The Headmasters? How does it compare to the first three seasons of the G1 cartoon? Does it fit in with those better than "The Rebrith"? Was "The Rebirth" handled better than The Headmasters was? Which version had the better characters? What were the main pros and cons of this series?
  • What's your opinion on the Chōjin Masterforce series? Was its uniqueness (i.e. - human TFs, Devil Z, Chōkon Power, etc.) too radically different from the *normal* kinds of TF series? Does it still hold up to you? How did you feel about the characters being primarily human/organic instead of wholly robotic? What did you consider to be good or bad in this series?
  • What are your thoughts on Victory? Did it evoke that nostalgic feel of the G1 cartoon, in which the episodes are mainly standalone episodic stories each? How do you feel about the "70's mecha anime"-styled designs of the characters? Could the show have done better to make itself more enjoyable, or was it fine as it is?
  • Any comments on the Zone OVA episode/fiction, Return of Convoy fiction, Operation Combination fiction, Japanese G-2 fiction, etc.?

I'm curious about the depth of yall's knowledge of this particular era. :-B
