The Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast is back as Stunticon crew ScottyP, xRotorstormx, Counterpunch, Megatronus, and very special guest, the Enigma of Combination himself WilliamJames88, tackle the latest Pulse Fan Fest reveals and other leaks of the day.

Episode #274 “Pulse Fan Fest 2021” 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:

We start big with what we all knew was coming: The Autobot Ark. He's big, he's yellow, and he's giving us cause to break out our prop replicas of Mount Saint Helens.
Questions about Commander Class Rodimus Prime's trailer are answered, and Leader Galvatron is looking more spry these days, what being properly transformed.
Voyager Rhinox, Deluxe Scorponok, and Deluxe Tracks keep the crew busy for awhile - mostly positive with the occasional jaw chest or flying car quibble.
Fossilizers are all the rage, with deluxe Wingfinger, deluxe Tricranius, and core Dracodon raising questions about combiners and demands for more magma decos. Oh, and core Soundwave is cool.
The big Fan Fest surprise was the reveal of Robosen's Optimus Prime - auto-converting, programmable, super cool, and wholly unnecessary.
Shattered Glass Blurr is bringing the pain with crazy eye patch and sexy packaging. Some of the crew might even be convinced to finally go in on the evil Autobots and heroic Decepticons.
Holy space potatoes - Studio Series Leader Slag has been revealed, renewing hope across the fandom for a complete line of chunky, polite Dinobot pals who say 'excuse me!'
Bragging rights! What has everyone gotten since last time?

If Kingdom Galvatron is a sort of precursor to a better toy down the line, could that be a Masterpiece Galvatron? I believe it was Scotty that expressed wanting to have Generations toys be sort of "trial runs" for Masterpiece again (rather than vice versa), which this would be.
I wasn't around during the mentioned Blocktown episode, but I just might have to hunt down and listen to that one.
Lastly, Scotty, you did tell the dinosaur story on a previous episode. It's a story worth telling, though.

Got a couple comments on the episode.

I for one am one of those who is excited for the Shattered Glass subline. blurr came out amazingly cool, and I am looking forward to what else they may have up their sleeve on that subline.

Ark looks pretty good, but the sides in ship mode are a bit egregious. I will call him Iaconus. And I agree with Scotty, give Tidal Wave his own mold, don't try to fenangle a Tidal Wave from the Ark. Now an animated Omega Supreme? that would be more interesting.
