Wasn't as prominent, yes. Sales for the franchise has always fluctuated, but Transformers never disappeared. when I say "Dormant," I meant fans who, for lack of a better term, moved on, but returned to the fandom once the movies hit the scene.

Oh man, shipping for UW Bruticus is simply brutal. Over 5000 yen for EMS. Not used to paying for shipping so high.

Meet "Squeeks."

Kiwami · 06-23-2016, 07:49 AM

He looks an awful lot like Michael Bay. What's "Squeeks" doing next to bootleg BB-8 and bootleg Rey though?

Thessair · 06-23-2016, 08:42 AM

Anyone want to take bets on exactly how offensive Squeeks will end up being? Also, he kind of reminds me of a robot version of the alien from Mac and Me, for some reason. Considering how women are generally portrayed in the films, I feel for the girl.

Did anyone else know that Kane Kosugi aka NinjaBlack from Kakuranger is going to play Getaway in The Last Knight? This might be old news but I just found out.

Umm Getaway isn't even rumored to be the movie.

And for those who don't care about the live-action films, you may enjoy the "Combiner Wars" animated series made by Machinima.

I'm trying not to get my hopes up for this, but I really do want it to be good. Mostly because if this succeeds it would hopefully increase the likelihood of eventually getting some kind of animated adaptation of Last Stand of the Wreckers or something from MTMTE.
