The Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast is back in your podcast feeds as ScottyP, Megatronus, and Mr Starscream tackle the latest Transformers news and more.

Episode #284 “Welcome to 2010” is available directly and in our RSS Feed, and should appear on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher Radio and many other Podcatcher sites within 24 to 48 hours of when you see this news post.

Here's what we discuss in this episode:

The Victory Saber HasLab campaign is live - so we come hat in hand about our wrong predictions, but fail to learn our lesson by speculating on stretch goals and what this means for future releases.
Also: more prototype images straight from Boston Fan Expo.
Studio Series 77 N.E.S.T. Bumblebee is here, and gosh darn it, this release makes zero sense, which may be why they threw spellchecking the packaging to the interns.
It took 7 years, but we have a Transformers Phi Slama Jama in the form of Kingdom Slammer, who joins the ranks of "My Titan Aint Complete Unless I Buy This" club along with Cog, Brunt, and Sixgun.
That catchy jingle means Listener Questions. Meanguns asks re: the Ark: "(heavy sigh) it's gonna get redone as Tidal Wave, isn't it?" and of the plasticizer issue discussed in 283: "does anyone have any specific or personal examples?"
It's been TWO YEARS since the last retrospective, but we're finally picking up the torch as we dive into red-carded Generations, Reveal the Shield, Welcome to 2010, and more.
Bragging rights! What has everyone gotten since last time?

What if the repaint of the Ark is... the Last Autobot? Give him the proper light blue parts, paint up the head right, retool the front of the ark to look like a giant cockpit and give him wings. They can then retool Mainframe into Action Master Optimus Prime, I'm sure the right combination of panels could form a truck mode that's all shell. Hey, I didn't say it was a great idea.

I love this. Until Kingdom gave the Titan Ark its actual place as just "The Ark, but it transformed" I was considering this a toy of TLA even with the off colors.
