Dear Twincast,

When something cool gets announced, what's more annoying? The posts that start with SQUEEEE!!!!! or the ones that say SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY! with the stupid, played out image?

Thanks in advance...

Love,
Kibble

PS...any chance both of those offenses could get you warnings going forward? I'll even take two for the infractions in my question if it can be made an official rule. ;)

Hello - I'm loving the Twincast, would probably even pay for it, it's that good so keep up the great work. I do have a comment/suggestion. It seems to me that Ryan has somewhat of a booming voice (a good thing). I dont think its my setup, although I guess it could be, but it seems like the levels top out very often when he's speaking. I dont know your setup but it would seem either his mic, or the overall levels of the recording need to be brought down just a little bit. Either way I will be listening and thanks for the awesome podcasts.

Greetings All,

just an ademdum to my erlier question,

if you could design a gimmick for Transformers what would it be .

my own personal favourite would be to have a mail order 'drone' figure in a random colour or with random headsculpt, and with a rubsign so it could be an autobot or Decepticon, or to have a 'twenty question' style order form so your figure could have unique tech specs- similar to an early incarnation of the gi joe steel brigade.

Figure I would love to see, that probably wont happen... encore metro titan,or encore omnibots.

keep up the good work,

lonrac.

hi- short time listener- but getting through the backlog,

Was there ever a figure that you didn't ( get a chance to) pick up, and you are still mentally ( or physically ) kicking yourself over? example: local toystore- closing down sale- had some G2 stuff that had been in the store room for years- card falling away, loose items etc. couldnt afford on that day, went back the following day, gone.....

When you 'call it' do you think Hasbro keeps an eye on sites like this, then brings out the figure you want?

Reply to Lonrac- Hasbro did a minispy rub-sign deal back in G1- they try and not give fans 'the same thing again'

Keep up the good work,

If could give the power to talk to one of your figures,wich one would it be?

When you think a figures could use more paint,details,etc...do make little touchs to the figure (TFP Knockout for example)or do you wait for a repaint?

Dear Twincast,

With Hasbro now doing boy band crossovers and making the Stinkin' Fart Soundwave, you think there's any chance at maybe a Bieber Bumblebee, Backdoor Boys Blaster, JonAss Bros Jetfire, or even an O-Town Optimus? Or might it be better to do an mmmBoptimus Prime instead? Whatever the case, this line could have some serious potential! Dare I say SQUEEEE!!! worthy? Whaddaya think?

xoxo

Hey Twincast,

Ive been questioned by Transformers fans as to why I hate my little pony so much. I have tried to give the most politically correct answers possible to avoid opening up pandoras box. Besides the fact that Hasbro owns the two lines, there seems to be no official crossover between the two that I know about. Some fan made collaborations exist, but in my opinion they are just using the ponies to be flamboyant.

My request is for everybody on the show to give their honest opinion about my little pony. If you like them let us know why. If you hate them, let us know why. And if you collect them, dont be bashful, let us know.

There's a difference though. There's "My Little Pony", and there's "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic".

The former is the whole franchise that has been around since the 80's that many have mixed opinions about.

While the latter is the latest incarnation that has drawn in several new fans of all ages and genders more successfully than any previous version, having done so primarily through its cartoon series that's made by the same people who made all the beloved classic Cartoon Network "Cartoon Cartoon" shows of the 90's/2000's, as well as a few Nickelodeon Nicktoons from the same time-period, and the film The Iron Giant.

There are a number of Bronies who like the latter but not the former, as it was the "Friendship is Magic" series that appealed to them, while wanting nothing to do with the regular "My Little Pony" stuff.
