With Seibertron's coverage of San Diego Comic Con 2016 winding down, the Twincast Podcast crew is set to get wound up in a matter of hours. Join us live on the Seibertron Youtube Channel at 9 PM Eastern Time as we digest all the awesome Hasbro Titans Return and Robots in Disguise product reveals, revelations from IDW Publishing's Transformers comics, and Machinima's Combiner Wars series airing this August on Go90.

Watch on the channel itself, or check out the embed below which will also go live at 9 PM Eastern Time.


Before the show gets going, ask us questions on Twitter by using the hashtag #AskTheTwincast. We'll take some of the best and answer them live, for better or worse! You can also leave a question for tonight's show here in this thread by replying to this news post.

With Liokaiser's reveal of Hasbro kind of doing things half way with him (ex: Dezaurus torso), a question about tf toys in general comes to mind:

Would you rather a toy be done half right or not done at all?

I think the toy with similar shoulder connections Rodimus was refering to is RID Thunderhoof.

Hope everyone enjoyed the live podcast! It was fun. Let us know what you thought!

Yeah, this was fun, do more of these.

I don't know if my YouTube comment was scene by any of you, but that smell that comes from old figures is from the plasticizer leaking fumes out of the old plastic. Plasticizer is an additive that keeps the plastic from being brittle. I've long theorized that a reaction between the plasticizer and the chemicals used in gold plastic is what causes GPS over time.

Also I think they can easily reuse the Titan Masters to give them proper bodies without altering the faces. For example they can give Grimlock a blue visor or make Flywheels a proper shade of dark brown.

I managed to jump in and see the last hour or so (After a very stressful workday) and it looked like a grand time... shame about Ryan's not-terribly-stable connection, but honestly, he's on the move in San Diego, what can you do, right? Definitely glad I got to see some firsts on the show, like first video bragging rights and the first live Counterpuching (I promise not to ship anything bad to Scotty). That was fun!

That was a fun show! More of these please!

Yeah I had a good time too. It was interesting trying to pick stuff out of ScottyP's and Counterpunch's shelves. I'll admit it would have been nice if Seibertron had a more stable connection so he could give some thoughts about the new figures from seeing them in person, but that was out of his control. Yeah these would be great for the big conventions and reveals.

Having Ryan on wasn't planned, I just figured "why not call him and see how it goes?" since he was in San Diego Worked out ok in the end!

If we do this again, I've figured out how to actually enable the picture showcase and live Q&A. Google's process for enabling those is really dumb, so we weren't able to use those like we'd hoped.

I'm glad everyone that tuned in enjoyed! For anyone that missed it, it's up on the Youtube channel, and we'll have the "Traditional" audio only version up sometime later this week.
