Twincast / Podcast Episode #31 "United Again"

Postby Razorclaw0000 » Mon Oct 24, 2011 4:49 pm

Motto: "Know that I am Razorclaw, that my reality is not yours, and while I share Tigerhawk's dual Spark and Vok heritage...
I am NOT he!"
Weapon: Ion Particle Blaster
The Seibertron.com Twincast/Podcast is stuffed to the brim this week with new news from both sides of the world. As always, you can listen to the podcast crew, Counterpunch, Jon3.0, Tigertracks, and Razorclaw, with special guest Seibertron by visiting the podcast download area or directly from iTunes.

Without further ado, the big news of the podcast is the reveal of new United figures. Hear what the crew has to say and which repaints we think you should pay attention to.

We also jump on (and beat up) the newly announced MP-11 Coronation Starscream.

Image

Next, we discuss "Fall of Cybertron", give you some background on "War for Cybertron", and try to figure out where the upcoming Transformers MMO from Jagex fits.

Image

Following that, we discuss the oddity that is CM Corp's Minerva, giving you some background on the character, as well.

Image

We also go deep with the news out of last week's New York Comic Con, discussing Prime and the Movie toyline.

Image

Finally, we discuss Blurrz's comprehensive coverage of the Third Party Scene at the Victoria's Ultimate Hobby and Toy Fair 2011.

Solid episode, thanks for the shoutout Bob.

Sixshot is really really really huge, I'm still stunned at how awesome it was to see it in person. Can't wait to pick up G2 Devastator. MakeToys Fallen is really stunning, it's just got that Cybertron/Galaxy Force blocky feel but it just has very nice aesthetics.

Apologies that I couldn't make it to talk about the convention, was really busy chasing girls around with school.

How were their paint apps? Good posability?

@ Counterpunch - Dammit, well I'll have to give it to you that you sucked me into listening one more podcast but at least I learned my lesson. Kudos for that, but once again we got the same brand I should have expected. No actual tears were shed in the making of this Podcast, great disappointment.

Any chance we could get an episode where you guys all get locked in a room with a Rabid Monkey with only your favorite transformer being utilized as a weapon? Basically turn it into a Battle Royale and the victor is the one whom emerges with the least amount of Rabbies infection. That would be epic and I'd love to listen to that episode..... Scratch that film that ish!! It could be a payperview exclusive.

My money would be on Jon for a multitude of reasons. One being that he would just Confuse the monkey with all his voices. Kind of like Timothy Treadwill did in Grizzly Man minus the eventual getting eaten part, but he did last a several years before he did.

Think about it....

Well, I have no intention of playing along with not-so-subtle trolling.

However, if you actually have constructive criticism, go ahead and post it for everyone to discuss.

Obvious troll is... yeah you get the idea...

So, awesome episode, again... loved the time travel segment, even if the extra-loud BTTF Theme threatened to blow my portable speakers...

As per usual, I threw the show on while I worked, but as an added bonus I was using the aforementioned portable speakers, so now I'm subjecting my innocent and unwitting co-workers to the gang's signature brand of insanity. Made for some great enjoyment out of another long, drawn-out boring graveyard shift! Remind me if I ever meet any of you lot to buy ya a round of drinks, and I look forward to the next show!

Thanks dude.

This gets said a lot, but it's precisely responses like this that make putting in the work worthwhile.

What the hell is Trolling? Nonsensical words that have wormed their way into the English dictionary hold no value to me.

So you take no humor at all in that fictitious and ridiculous scenario at all huh?
No sense of humor I take it.

Here's my criticism then- loosen up

Because come on think about it, we're talking about plastic toys here after all, based on a 80's cartoon.

Great as always!

How can you hate Cybetron Unicron. That thing is sweet.

I hope Hasbro does an actual FOC toy line, instead of what they did with WFC, just putting them into the Universe line. I'd be fine with a larger scale, like the Marvel crossover scale, around 15 bucks, larger allowing for more details.

Packaging was top notch, quality control was a bit iffy.

Your comments on the podcast for the past few episodes haven't exactly been funny. You say that we should chill out because this is about toys. Well the folks you're listening to happen to spend thousands upon thousands of dollars on these figures. It's their hobby, it's what they put their heart and soul into. These guys are experts in their field, in fact mostly everyone on this forum is a dedicated collector. Yeah, toys are serious business. If you want to try to be funny, then go ahead, if you want to criticise, by all means, but hey, if you just want to do this for shits, giggles, and put downs, then it's not going to be tolerated.
