Not enough that I think they could wring a decent event out of Prime Target though.
(I love Dave's work, of course; I'm just surprised that this story got referenced in the game before much of his mythology-defining stuff)

The funny part is, given the volume of AKOM errors tarnishing that epic, it's not too big a stretch to pretend these three characters were actually there, but misdrawn or omitted by mistake. Could the red guy who looks like Lightspeed extended into a Station Wagon be...SG Drift?!?

And with the release of CSR Classics on Android, well ... Legends can go bye bye in favour of a game where even if you spend money, you actually get something that benefits you more than a week before it's made redundant.
Goodbye TF Legends, I played you from the beginning, but your desire for my wallet just doesn't cut it.

So wait, the previous event actually does count as FFOD Part 1, even though it was called "THE GALACTIC GAMES"?
Three somewhat random character choices for the ep; Runamuck didn't even debut until Chaos. Hope there's more, because 'Plasma-Bath Galvatron' and 'Galvatron Destroying Thrull' would be awesome rare cards.

You're mistaken, there was a Five Faces of Darkness Part I last week... It had the slightly more nonsensical combination of Sludge, Slug, Cliffjumper and Outback versus Tantrum and Thundercracker, following the kidnapping of Kup, Magnus and Spike by a "Skuxxoid."

Ah, thanks! Despite my interest in WTF they're thinking with the premise, I don't have a device or spare cash to play these, so I never really look into it beyond this thread.MegaDump wrote:Bumblevivisector wrote:HEH-HEH, HEH-HEH!

Seriously, though. With Godzilla coming to theaters, this would've been the perfect time to put out a new Trypticon figure.

Not necessarily. This game uses designs no matter how old. It's used the ROTF Bludgeon toy from 2009 for G1 Bludgeon, and the Timelines Shattered Glass Alpha Trion toy from 2007 as G1 Alpha Trion.Tresob wrote:A little after the fact to use the TRU exclusive Hotspot design though...unless maybe your local Ross is only just getting them in.

True true.
(Waiting for Sabrblade to bring up all previous instances with scanned panels from Marvel comics in which Grimlock has the same pose. I can thing of a couple in IDW, too. )
