Summer is here and that means it's time for a new episode of the Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast. Of course, every time of year means that. Every two weeks means that, or sometimes three like in this case, but at least during the episode you won't have to hear too much of that kind of rambling from host Scotty P and pals Megatronus and Rotorstorm - or will you? At any rate, tune in to hear thoughts on a busy few weeks in the world of Transformers as the talk hits up the latest on Transformers 7, Collaborative releases galore and yet more Bumblebugs.

Episode #279 “Clever Girl Summer” is available directly and in our RSS Feed, and should appear on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher Radio and many other Podcatcher sites within 24 to 48 hours of when you see this news post.

Here's what we discuss in this episode:

The beasts are rising with the seventh live action movie, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts getting formally announced
We also talk about its potential status as a mess of ideas and opine on casting decisions
Collaborative release talk kicks off with Jurassic Park
Are we too old to understand J Balvin Soundwave? Yes.
The rumorleak train continues to make sure no one can stay excited about things for too long with its latest revelations in the form of Dracula and Amazon Prime
Megatronus can't decide how big Origins Bumblebee is
We don't feel like a gold bug
Some quick mention is given to upcoming Studio Series pals Jolt, Thrust and Grindor
Bragging Rights take us to the end as usual

Listening to this one an episode late, so keeping short

Waiting for Dracula to be based on the TR Mindwipe framework myself

Core class Twincast from Soundwave? I think you could break even

I actually like the deco on Goldbug. For one thing its the first use of this mold to get detail painting snd not be a solid color car *cough*BugBite*cough* I agree he should have gone woth a larger mold but it was said when Blurr dropped that Hasbro was going with whatever was a relevant mold for the counterpoint character was at the time. Starscream got away with having a choice of two molds in the same toylines

I agree the blue fake window is WAYY too bright.

He had yellow details on the legs on the original, but to be fair this figure does not have those details to color.

I actually kinda wish they didn't paint the hood scoop, I really want Repro to give me some Trans Am decals for an all black hood

I have the same issue with my Sparkless Seeker. The side wings panels dont want to tab under thr nosecones
