Grab your energon pitchforks and plasma torches faithful listeners! On the latest episode of the Seibertron.com Twincast/Podcast, your host Counterpunch tries to find the silver lining in the disappointment the fandom has encountered over the last few weeks. Throwing gas on the fire is repeat guests Razorclaw and Tigertracks. As always, you can download the Twincast directly from iTunes or here at Seibertron.com's Twincast RSS feed.

Kicking things off, we discuss the launch (and relaunch) of the TFCC Exclusive Over-Run and Shattered Glass Drift figures, as well as the problems the Club managed during the sale.

Image

We discuss the issue with preorders, offer suggestions for the future, and discuss the figures themselves.

Next up, we lament the unexpected end of Transformers Prime: First Edition toys. We analyze the problems with store exclusives, discuss the costs involved, speculate on reasons, and get rather salty about the whole affair, including the shortage of Takara First Edition toys to compound fan desire.

Image

Moving on from First Edition to Robots in Disguise, we give our thoughts on the recently revealed Ratchet and Optimus Maximus, as well as some of the other, upcoming figures.

Image

Image

We then jump to other side of the world, and review the just-released United Rodimus and give our thoughts on his over-the-top paint apps.

Image

We have some Micron talk up next for those collectors with a tiny figure predilection, with the recently announced Arms Micron line.

Image

Finally, we discuss a few pieces of excellent art floating around from the likes of Jim Sorenson and Guido Guidi showing us some new sides to the art we've come to know and love.

We're back with another exciting episode of the Seibertron.com Twincast Podcast. As always, you can download the Twincast directly from iTunes or here at Seibertron.com's Twincast RSS feed.

This week, host Mike, and regular members Matt, Bob, Jon and Ryan continue our discussion of BotCon, started in last week's episode.

After getting up to speed with Ryan and Jon, we launch into the latest BotCon reveals:

Shattered Glass Ultra Magnus

Metalhawk

Shattered Glass Octopunch

What does the crew have to say about head molds? What did we say about the color schemes of this year's figures? What are our thoughts on molds used? Tune into the Twincast to find out!

Next up, we discuss the registration process. Find out our thoughts as well as listen in to find out who's going to the customizing class and what we think the figure may be.

Next, we discuss the recently revealed Transformers: Prime toys, although our full coverage of the main line will be in a future show.

Image

Be sure to check out our full coverage of the UK launch of the main line, as well!

Finally, we discuss something very important out in the real world: SOPA and PIPA. On Wednesday, January 18th, 2012, Seibertron.com and many other large websites, including Reddit and Wikipedia, took part in a massive blackout to protest the US Goverment's proposed censorship and anti-piracy laws. See more about the topic in our extensive article. If you aren't familiar with these pieces of legislation, we recommend a few minutes of reading on these topics that could threaten your civil liberties!

We wrap up with some light-hearted bragging rights!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! It's time for a new episode of the Seibertron.com Twincast/Podcast, featuring Counterpunch, Jon3.0, Tigertracks, Seibertron and Razorclaw.

We have another week thick with news, but first we do a bit of housekeeping, and discuss the emails that Razorclaw received at ihaterazorclaw@seibertron.com regarding the last episode's discussion of TFC Toys' Hercules and Maketoy's Giant figures. We answer some listener emails from joevill, rpetras, and Ariel Brenman. Will Razorclaw be swayed? Listen to find out!

In terms of news, we get angry at Counterpunch for finding the brand new Transformers Prime Arcee, Bumblebee, and Starscream deluxe class toys at his local Toys R Us.

Image

We then discuss the upcoming and highly anticipated Encore Constructicons / Devastar (Devastator), as well as a few flaws that have been reported.

Image

We then turn our attention to the latest version of the Dark of the Moon Leader Class Optimus Prime toy which Takara Tomy released a couple of weeks ago: Striker Optimus!

Image

After that, we turn our discussion to the first ever official China exclusive: "Year of the Dragon" Ultimate Optimus Prime.

Image

Speaking of products coming out of China, we also share our three cents about the latest news in the unofficial 3rd Party world: Minibots, Battle Tanker, and TFC Toys Heavylabor customer service.

Image

Image

Image

After a month hiatus from galleries, Ryan launches some all-new Seibertron.com galleries. We discuss these galleries for MP-10 Convoy (Optimus Prime) and Toys'R'Us Exclusive Rodimus Prime with Offshoot.

Image

Image


Finally, we discuss our featured topic for this podcast - "Holy Grails", hot on the heels of Seibertron's recent purchases of Grand Maximus and Black Zarak. Ryan's purchase of Grand Maximus ends a 15 year hunt that began back in 1996.

The Podcast staff follows suit discussing each of their currently owned and desired Holy Grails.
