dubbed in Tagalog my friend?

good show ole chap!!! I used to live in Guam for like 3 yars and I studied Tagalog, easy language to pick up it's similar to Spanish.. only it's confusing because there are like 7 bazillion dialect depending on which part of PI your from.. I hope if they do dub the animated in Tagalog they do it in a dialect that is widely received..

Anyway...my only complaint is that they've apparently stopped the tech spec grids again. Reminds me of Energon, only the cards that came with the figures had them on the back, and here it's just the bio. Really not that big a thing, I'm just sitting here thinking that if they're gonna have the bio on the back of the blister card, they'd might as well do the technical data too.

Unless they pull a Cybertron and but the tech-data in a random spot. That was really annoying. :-x

But you know what I would really like to see? Original box art like we used to get back in the day.

cool! nice to know you have some semblance of knowledge on our national language 'ol chap. :grin:

actually, Tagalog is like one singular language only, and you are right in deducing it's similarity to Spanish, with most words derived from that mother tongue.

but the regional variants are not called Tagalog per se, but these are sub-dialects and are usually derivations from Tagalog infused with the local native Language.

anyhow, when it'll be dubbed in Tagalog i'm sure it's going to be fun and all, but actually i like it better when seen with the original english dub; i dunno, we have great local seiyu voice-dubbers, but unless it's a Japanese anime i find it better to see it in its original format. you DON'T wanna hear G1 in Tagalog, trust me.

Guam use Tagalog? That's a surprising bit of news.

Actually, Tagalog is a mix of its core collection of basic local words, plus a lot words imported from a variety of foreign languages.

The imported words are primarily from Chinese (during pre-Spanish era 1000-1500s), then from Spanish (during Spanish era 1521-1898), and lately, from English (post-Spanish era 1908-present)

All correct.
Megatron also has two toys, following along with Prime.

well, this is GREAT news, since at least the 2 Primes will be more affordable given that there is no LC price point. whew!

my interest in this series grows by the news on the toy offerings.

:MAX:

Well, except the three faces are inside a helmewt, so only one is "looking out" at any time, and that's in the front.

Now that's an interesting bot. I guess he'll be having 3 faces?

No, only two.
I'm guessing Nuclear Convoy was confused by the fact that Blitzwing is a Triple changer.

He has one face(and accompanying personality ) per alt mode.

At BotCon they made a direct comparison to Man-E-Faces who had 3 faces

He has different personalities, too?

Why would he have a specific face for each alt.mode? What's the point?

They're not "for his alt modes", he has a fractured identity because he's a triple changer.
I still say he has three faces total.
