I'm interested.
To clarify, in this case it's just dialogue instead of actual prose, but I could see if I could try proper literary style at some point.
As for why I asked, this happened earlier today, and I was only able to get audio recording.
...Domey, I’ve been thinking......oh? What about?There are all these third-party companies making Transformers, and some of them are doing IDW designs. Right?Right....what happens when they do us?Huh?One of these days, they’re gonna make toys based on our MTMtE designs. They’ll be more posable and expressive, better scaled, more accurate to our comic looks, maybe even have super kung-fu hugging action...Yeah, it’d probably happen eventually. What’s your point?...what happens to us?...We’re the most IDW Chromewind toys out there right now, so everybody uses us. But let’s face it, we’re regular retail TFs, we’re not that great as an action figure.Better than some of the scrap on the shelves right now...True, true. But compare us to a Figma or Gundam model kit, and we don’t look that great.Where are you going with this?...I’m afraid the third-party stuff will take our place....Rewind, if...if you’re that concerned, let’s go talk to Sigma.O-okay......oh, hey you two. What's up?
What are you going to do when they make third-party toys of us?Huh?
Will you replace us?What--...no! No, no. I’d never do that. C’mon, guys, I’ve had you two for nearly a year and I’m pretty sure you’re the most popular toys in my collection.
...so what will you do?Well...that depends on how the third-party figures look. Depending on the artist, Chromedome, I don’t even like your main MTMtE design.
...really?Yeah. But, let’s say the toys look good, work well, and all that. I’d probably buy them.
R-right...And then, before they wake up...I’d do a little something me and Brainstorm have been stormbraining: A consciousness transfer.
That...that's possible?Yup. You two would get a chassis upgrade, and your old bodies would go back with the Cerebros and the rest of the team with new personalities.
You'd really do that for us?Yup.
Th...thank you.Thanks.You two have earned it.
For all intensive purposes, I am not longer active on Seibertron. If you want to find me, I'm most easily reached on Twitter, @sigma_magnus
