We've got a diverse agenda for this episode folks, so keep on listening or you might miss it. We start with comic-talk, specifically Transformers #43 - official Seibertron review here. The Soundwave/Cosmos dynamic is an interesting one, and we have a bit of a role reversal. What does the Twincast crew think of this installment, not to mention the promo covers?
Take that, peaceful dude!
We move on to the more divisive More Than Meets the Eye #43 - official Seibertron review here. Holo-matter avatars abound in this issue, and whether you dig it or not, we're all eager to get on to the next thing. Can this issue's ending catharsis redeem the long slog to the end? Listen in for some strong opinions.
Well... that was unexpected.
Only a select few of the Twincast crew are caught up on the RID Cartoon, and Counterpunch has one incisive question: WHY? Listen in as we compare RID to its predecessors, discuss its strengths and weaknesses... and get distracted by distribution of on-screen characters (also, distribution in general).
Not hard to find!
We move along to some exciting news - Transformers Subscription Service Impactor. The Twincast finally agrees on something: this guy is COOL. Well done, FubPub. Our all important head-canon and the Combiner Wars figures we want aside, you should join the discussion in Seibertron.com's brand new Collectors Club forums, right here.
Squeal!!!
Time for some Masterpiece talk. Word has come down (or eastward) from Japan that MP-11T Thundercracker is coming. The Twincast's reaction is mixed. Are we digging the semi-accurate cartoon deco, or are we happy with Hasbro's version from a couple years back? More importantly, where are the Coneheads?
He's so pretty, and silky smooth too!
So, how about that Masterpiece Ironhide? Ever since MP27 was announced at Tokyo Toy Show, the fandom has been alternating cycles of uproar and rage on this figure. The Twincast crew has their own prognosis. Listen in as we consider the future of this impending release, and agonize over this photoshop.
Non-heroic nonsense.
It's time… for a LISTENER QUESTION! Doctor McGrath asks "Combiner Wars Devastator looks great but where does he fit in your collection?" Devastator's got plenty of places to go... a shelf of redundancy here, a shelf of misfit toys there. There are no wrong answers, so find out where the Twincast will be placing this behemoth... if they do at all.
He's a mean, green, devastation machine!
We finish up the Twincast with some bragging rights. What did everyone get since the last recording?
Minus his armada.
Don't forget, the show only gets better if you tell us how. Drop us a review on iTunes and be sure to tell us what you love, what you hate, and what you want to hear!
