I hate those stupid open mouths. Why on earth do people want to make their robots look like human superheroes ??? Devastator is a powerhouse. He doesnt scream like a b**ch...

You know, it's not for me, what I find interesting and the main reason I wanted to post this article, was for the customizer acknowledgement. From what I understand, G.I.Eddie was pretty cool about the blatant use of his work. But it's a refreshing change to the norm to see design credit given.

I agree, it is all too often that we see work getting ripped off of the original creators. In this case, I'm glad Dr. Wu gave credit where it was due.

Not sure how many people are aware of this but becuase the point of this article is Creator inspiration and acknowledgement, i thought i'd share this. Igear molded a Wheeljack face onto the inner thigh of their seeker mold as a nod to the Sector70 member:

Making certain to give creator acknowledgments to an unlicensed, after market add on to an unauthorized, 3rd party product certainly strikes me as a peculiar phenomenon.
I believe in credit where credit is due, but since when did kitbashing/customizing get so territorial?

the entirety of the Season 1 cast may as well have been Superheroes. They've got loads of special/unique powers that the rest of the Cybertronian race(s) don't. Invisibility, teleportation, mind-reading, pile-driver hands, the inability to capture or defeat their enemies in any permanent way? That all sounds like superheroes to me.
Now, yeah, this faceplate doesn't particularly appeal to me, but I can see why some people might want to have him roaring like a beast, maybe similarly to the way he was in TFTM when he tore open Autobot City?

That's all good and well, but I'll be impressed with RobotKingdom when they finally bother to get DOTM Soundwave, Que, and Striker Prime back in stock.
