Kudos to OS on so much progress. I don't think we've seen this much progress so quickly in the history of the game.

Word.

I am also curious on how this works. What if I don't want to use minicons? I like Micromasters and minicons, but I'm not into Armada/Energon/Cybertron. When Armada first came out I was given the impression minicons were used to build up Cybertron.

Does Cybertron have an ACLU to stand up for Minicon rights?

Minicon A:
"I feel so cheap. I don't get paid as much as the Maximals for what I do. And I have to Powerlink all day!"

Decepticon (aka Lawyer)
"I can get you 5 million Energon for your punitive damages"

I admit, that is pretty funny. :oops:

ACLU + opression of sentient beings = Bad Juju

Woot! Minicons! Just a shame we can't name 'em.

Yes, I like minicons. Have a problem with this, I'll see you in the missions.

Good work OS :grin:

Bring it on

I am, in fact, organising a safari hunt. My team are amongst the targets. Feel free to sign up as a hunter.

I see naming minicons as a prize in tourneys. Maybe I'm psychic or something.

Word.

Doubtful, since the minicons are basically glorified weapons if I remember correctly. When we get head/target/power/whatereverelsemasters then we can name those.

No naming of minicons? :sad:

I have so much possible names in mind (I have a lot of micro/head/target/terror- masters in my team).

You will be able to name masters according to OS.

Just not minicons

Wow, I just noticed the Minicon jigamathinger myself. O.o;

I'm sorta mixed on this: It's awesome we're getting Minicons somewhere down the line, but it kinda bites that we won't be able to name them or anything. I had some ideas for team Minicons if they ever came about. Aw, well.

Regardless, I can't wait to see how they work. Keep on rockin, OS. :PEACE:

No. Just no! Eeewww. I feel dirty. Like I need a giant can of Mech-Raid and some giant rat traps... and not the Beast Wars kind.

Yay, Minicons!

Minicons can be a good thing to mix things up in a matter of speaking. It will add a different dimension to the game. Lets just give it a chance before we start bashing them.

Minicons from Dreamwave Comics: Good.
Minicons from the Show: Craptastic!

I am not a Pokemon fan for a reason.

We're going to have to take steps to keep the Minicon populations down. We don't need them breeding like rabbits. We'd all bedrowing in a sea of them.

Help control the Minicon population, have your Minicon spaid or neutered.
