The Energon Pub

For me it was after reading his cyber key bio. The part about him being a collector of altra rare transformers.

Short Round: This is the legacy I leave in this world? My name is used for an alien toilet? This sucks.

You forgot to mention the fact you got stabbed in the shoulder socket by an androgenous Indian child monacrch who practises voodoo as well, kid.

I'm glad there's so many crap lovers out there. That means I have a chance at buying better tfs since you guys will be worried about getting optimus minor, scarem, or shortround. I'm just waiting for some guy to come online and be like "WHEELIE IS MY FAVORITE TRANSFORMER EVER!!!!!%(#*)"

The toilet is cool though.

Scarem crappy?

Surly you jest sir.

If anyone was wondering where the talk of Shortround being a TF collector came from, it's from the Hasbro site, unlocked after putting in Shortround's cyber key code.

Here's what you unlock:

Shortround, in addition to being completely in love with Thunderblast, is also completely obsessed with toys. This little Decepticon, when not annoying the slag out of his team-mates, or causing confusion on the battlefield is either on-line or shooting around the galaxy, hitting all of the best collectible toy stores he can find. The prizes of his collection? Mint complete Generation 2 Defensor and Menasor.

And if anyone STILL needs more incentive to buy this amazing little scout, check out Ryan's great Shortround galleries that I myself teased him into posting earlier than he wanted!

I never liked Optimus Minor, he was just crappy.

Flip upside down and bam he's done, he was tiny and had a crappy weapon.

If you ask me I say it's his arms...they give him character. He is a different and odd looking Transformer. Not the same ol same ol, that's why I think people like him. That's why I like him.

The whip is awsome. It would be better if it was articulated, true, but it's a basic. And the little dude is awsomely posable in both modes, which can be kind of rare for even some Beast Wars figures.

Oh, and I forgot that Optimus Minor even has a sort of starring role in the IDW Beast Wars, and the Dreamwave Summer Special, so that added to his already awsomeness.

And how could Scarem be crappy? His myth and legend drove me to get him a couple years ago, and I wasn't disapointed.

I like Shortround. I think he's a unique and interesting little figure, aside from the wild arm thing. At the very least, he's a different mold and not a repaint, but for reasons unknown I really do like the little guy.

Great, just stinking great! I get one issue i had sorted and another pops up! What is the "myth and legend" of scarem?

I'm exaggerating a little bit. Anyway, couple years ago the member Chosen went on and on about how awsome Scarem was, scythe hands and all, and gave out brownies to anyone who got him. And so, a lot of people went out and bought him, me included. Scarem even got a gallery around that time. So basicly, it was kind of peer pressure, but Scarem is a very cool little figure, so it was justified.

The gallery: http://www.seibertron.com/toys/gallery.php?id=54&size=0&start=0 Didn't realize he was only #49! Ryan's done a lot of work since then .

I see, it just so happens that i have got both minor and scarme in the mail to me, they should be arriving tomorrrow, so this thread is really paying off-sweeetness!

Sorry to bump this, but can anyone explain why, when I enter his Cyber Key code, I get a message saying, "The code you entered does not exist."? I've tried varying the letter case, but to no avail.

Mine did. Did you get Shortround second hand? Are the codes even unique (meaning do all shortrounds everywhere have the same code)? Is there an "o" that should be a "zero"?

( 8(|) Doh!

the codes arent unique, i know this because 1 of the few codes i did enter was from starscream-and both the twin pack and suprem size versions have the same code-os i guess that solves that

Oh and my minor and scarem arrived-nifty little toys. gotta say i am a bit of a minor fan at the mo!

So, is it a no-no to share codes over the forum? (I'm thinking of confirming that his code is the same as mine.) I suppose I could do it over PM, but if it's okay, maybe other people want it as well.

We used to have an entire thread dedicated to these codes - I think Solidus started it - so I've got no problems sharing.

The code I have is s639. I've tried it with a capital 'S'. Is that what everyone else has?

i tried that code and it worked-maybe ur computer sucks if it doesnt work for u. either that or god hates u?

Well, in a nicer way os saying it, there are a couple of possibilities. I believe the app on the site is flash based. Do you have the newest flash add-on installed? Are you using IE7 beta? Have you been able to view other codes? Do you have cookies disabled? Do you have security settings on anti-virus or ad blockers set too high?

Did someone switch the 9 and 6 on your keyboard?

I can view a lot of other codes. Jetfire's, for example, and Vector Prime's. It just seems to be Shortround's that it doesn't recognise.

I'm going with GrimSqueaker's notion: someone hates me!
