Started listening finally, but only got a little bit in. Short commutes, lots of work, bleh.

Still:

Prowl - The background stuff you guys were talking about shows up in Shadowplay and Earthfall, but keeps calling back to AHM, and generally to Barber's work on the character in various flashbacks and post-Megatron return in xRID.

As for the beast modes, I see the 'pretender' solution as a way of explaining the different similarities (allow me this one) between Eukaris and the Chimeracons. In fact, given that the name exists, it is possible that Roche will explain their full origin before the mini is over.

That said, I'd go with the 'both' explanation, too. Eukaris is a colony which directly links to Onyx Prime, almost as his haven for beast-modes. The Chimeracons have 'bio-disguises', as the Dinobots sort of did in Spotlight Shockwave - but Earth also has ties to Onyx Prime. While I'm not sure Roche may be behind it, I would suggest that Barber has something in mind to tie it all up.

Will add more as I keep listening!

Double post, sorry, but finally got to the end of it - and I think it's worth showing ScottyP's geeky gift again. Full 'gallery' here!






SAVAGE CLAW MODE!!!

For the seekers, with the initial trio, like you I preffer them upside down for the cartoon model. But that means that for the conehead trio, I preffer them rightside up in robot mode:





As you can see above though, it doesnt end up working out with the jet mode.

As for Frenzy, the scene that defines him the most for me is in the All Hail Megatron comic and he happens to be blue there. So, for me, Frenzy is blue.

How are they in the toon, though? Finding still pics of the Coneheads...in alt mode...that actually show the symbols...is proving a bit difficult through google. I'm not sure how much stock I put in one dude's drawing. But whatever the case, they seem to be pretty consistently drawn right side up in bot mode, and would result in them facing the RL correct way in jet mode, so I'd go bot mode accurate if I were applying stickers myself.

I think I need to re-read AHM. There are plenty of callbacks to, and there's recurrence of, many characters right now from that era and I feel like I'm not catching details like this.

Verily. I speed-read it as I was in Italy last month, but things do seep through. I mean, that is where this Prowl starts showing these colours, really (and where Barber took him back to for Prowlastator, among other things).

Um, where do you get the beer glasses that are etched with the Cyber Planet keys?

Can confirm, that's where mine came from!

Box said something about Etsy as well.

Yep, they were from Etsy, and definitely not hipster garbage...

I am sure those arent but Etsy itself has hipster written all over it, so I thought it would be a fun callback to a phrase that has now become a podcast staple. This is the first profile that pops up on the site right now and those two people look like they just stepped off the set of Portladia!

$10 a glass is not only super palatable, it's a good profit. Glasses in bulk, some stencils, and glass etching chemicals are all you need, in fact my wife had done an Autobot/Decepticon set for me on her own for one of my birthdays. Smart business right there!
