I also forgot to say that I had an uncle who was a cop, and he worked with the k-9 units. He did get fired, but I wouldn't put him under the category of being a pig or an evil Decepticon like Crowbar. He was on my mom's side of the family. The reason he lost his job was due to dishonesty, not for trying to kill anyone. He had taken money from drunks or whoever and made them think they got all of it back when they hadn't. There's a word for it called rolling.

Well tried. Two long unintelligible posts (as always), but no direct anwser to the question.

I think he means "corrupt cops" when he says "pigs"...

*is dragged away for taking all the fun out*

What, I only wanted to help!

We all knew what he was on about.

I just wanted to see how far his disrespect extended.

Thanks for ruining it.

AGAIN.

FFS, I mean seriously, how **** stupid do you think we are Rabbit?

Am I the only one who finds it amusing to imagine that Godbomber's Headmaster is secretly Leftfoot?

Who or what is Duragrip?

You should try asking that a gun but in a way that has something to do with Transformers.

Otherwise, you know ... off-topic. :-P

That and I don't think the answer is quite that easy.

A planet... that devours everything in its path. (So that's the monster's name...)

For serious he was a user on here a few years ago. You should be able to find his old topics by archive-trawling (that's how I found them); it's surprising how much similarity some of them bear to this one honestly.

To keep things "on-topic" to Transformers (assuming the awful reference above isn't enough): boy do I love Omega Supreme! :-P

I never said you were, guys. Not everyone catches on things as quickly as others, like I can't tell when someone's being serious or not. >:oP

Oh great, gee, thanks! Now we'll never know if Zelda would have been able to come up with a question!

Well I can do it if you'd like. In the spirit of this thread...

"I was looking at some of my Legends class Transformers the other day and I saw one I didn't recognise. I think he turns into a race car of some sort, and since race cars sometimes use Duragrip tyres that made me think that I had seen a lot of people talking about someone or something called duragrip on this website. What kind of thing is that? I know I thought for a while that Duragrip was some kind of glue but I don't think that's right, since it wouldn't make sense for so many people to be talking about glue all at once. The reason I'm asking is because it seems like an important thing to do with Transformers; and I did a Google search but I couldn't find anything out, but if there's a character called Duragrip that would make sense because it would have to do with cars. I imagine if Hasbro put out a toy of Duragrip it would have the name of the tyres actually on the wheels, which isn't something they normally do but maybe they should start doing it since a real car would have that detail and Transformers are supposed to look like actual vehicles."

I know it's not the authentic experience, but I hope it was enough to escape your wrath O Burn. (Fun(?) fact: I actually did think that Duragrip was a brand of glue, up until I Googled it just then to work out what tangents I could potentially follow. The things you learn.

)

...smartarse. :-P

Well after several minutes of searching, I found out Groove does turn into a police motorcycle and that there's a micron version of him, that's a repaint of the mini-con Prowl triple changer that I have, so that's one version of Groove that I wouldn't pay for; and if I was a hippy, I would say he's groovy. Pun fully intended intended. I should also probably get into the groove and get my groove on.

Mon Aug 28, 2017 11:09 am

Well I got bad news and good news. The bad news is that Hasbro doesn't have a deal where you can get custom made Transformers like an Autobot that turns into Noah's ark. With the exception of beast Transformers, every figure they offer turns into something from the 20th century or later. The good news is that I won't have to pay much for Transformer instructions because I called Hasbro and was told that he would email me instructions in a few minutes, so I'm not as discouraged when it comes to buying those.

Yes I did. You got a problem with me looking into the possibility of a Transformer that turns into the kind of vehicle that is talked about in the holy Bible? Unfortunately, I still haven't received instructions for those two bigger triple changers.

Mon Aug 28, 2017 1:57 pm

I thought of a few other transforming vehicles that could stand to be made from events recorded in the Bible. Jonah tried to flee in the opposite direction when God told him to go to Nineveh. That could be a triple changer because they could have one that has a boat mode and a giant fish mode in addition to the robot mode. There were also a few boats recorded in the New Testament like when Jesus performed His storm calming miracle, walking on the water, telling Peter which side of the boat to cast the net on in order to catch fish, and finally the boat that Paul was on before he got shipwrecked. If I can get one of the other companies to sell me a triple changer regarding the story of Jonah, I hope they don't make the beast mode a whale because the Bible doesn't say it's a whale.

I see what you did there!

But yeah, gave up on Killjoys two episodes into this season. Just a bunch of pretty people running around with space guns going pew pew pew.

Dark Matter isn't much different but ... eh, it just seems more interesting.

Oh and to stay on topic ... in their spare time, and for a bit of fun, Transformers run around with their space guns going pew pew pew?

Mon Aug 28, 2017 4:40 pm

Biblical Transformers wouldn't really need space guns if their endurance and strength numbers are high enough. I've listed six possibilities; and if they didn't make the ship that Jonah was on a triple changer, that would be big enough to make a combiner set. The giant one could be called Michael after the archangel, and the name of the group itself could be the Bibliobots.
