Something Sporty

📷 Transformers Robots In Disguise 2015 Thermidor

Real talk mate, your Bayverse Rando Rodeo remains my absolute favourite to this day. On the lockdown ToyFu stream sales I ended up buying a whole bunch you featured in that.

I know big compilation vids are a slog, but I remain hopeful that one day you'll be able to do a RotF version.

Something a bit different tonight. Not sure it's a total success - putting Wheelie in there at a different level of focus created all sorts of problems with the backdrop, and getting him to not just fade away into the backdrop was a lesson in futility.

Just as good. Better, probably. Real G2 is often a little disappointing. Like Inferno being the G1 toy with a water pistol.

G2 baybee! As garish as you can manage!

Couple of randos that have found their way out of storage. Something about them makes them seem like they'd be mates.

Does the remoulded cockpit mean it can't have the mini-con up front like Cyclonus did? I always liked that, turning him into more of a gunship.

I'm trying to sell my MMC Feral Queen and Nero Queen. I only have robot mode pictures because there's not enough hours in the day for me to commit to transforming them.

Was that from CBR? They have form.

#Doncept Volumizer Megatron

I've grown to like it more with age. I much prefer it to the show model now.

Jetstorm and his... pilot? What madness this?

Tell me that's not one of the prettiest things you've ever seen.

M-m-m-MASK! Always riding on Venom's trailllll..."

Now I want an all-muslim punk band called Mosquepit. Oh, it's probably been done.

Of course they're Beast Machines! Just, y'know, try to ignore the Autobot logos.

(Like Obsidian, these are superior decos anyway)

He's already touching grass.

As of today, I no longer do. I just paid £[redacted] for this lovely lummox and if Hasbro suddenly announced an AotP Clench I think I would scream.

Although Thunderclash...

Tell me that's not one of the prettiest things you've ever seen.

He cheet.

Mind over matter.

Absolute class. One of my favourite jetformer toys, and I'm not even that much into Bayverse designs.

Only the second picture and already it's an RiD redeco of a Beast Machines toy.

Well shut up, it's a better deco than that lurid green Obsidian initially came in. Where's my voyager Legacy toy of this guy, hmm?

I don't really have a preference for dark grey, light grey or white. They're all much of a muchness. However one thing I did find was that on getting Sentinel Prime in that mould... I ended up liking it way more than Astrotrain.

Yet I still don't have a Siege one. Go figure.

I like the TR one, but it's definitely aging worse than the Henkei.

That two entire versions of Aerialbots can be designed, marketed and released in the years since the last true Thunderwing toy is an absolute travesty.

And Stunticons.

And even frigging Liokaiser.

FebRIDary has fallen! Now I, Beast March-ines rule!

I... might have been overeager on this one, as I don't actually have many BM toys myself. Still, there's always Tankor, I guess.

Oh alright. One last dip of the toe for #FebRIDary before Beast March-ines takes over.

One thing I love about the RiD Decepticons is the way it mixes the weird and wacky animal-themed guys with more serious legacy characters. Case in point: Bludgeon.

Listen, I'm not going to tell you that it's definitively better than the Haslab one, but I am going to tell you that, adjusted for inflation, it still only cost me £56.
