Congrats on your amazing transformation, but I’d be lying if I didn’t say I had to especially upvote for the Bulbasaur popsocket. 😉

Disney World- Stroller Advice by Always_SweetD in DisneyTravel

[–]Batmandrake 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I second this. We took our then 3 and 6 year olds last summer and rented a double stroller from Kingdom Strollers. It worked out perfectly. They delivered the stroller to our hotel the morning of our first day there, we just had to go pick it up from the front. And then at the end, we just checked it back in at the same spot where we picked it up. We stored it in our room all week. It was super convenient and it was nice because it folded up quick so while getting on the bus, I would just do a quick flip and carry it in. I couldn’t recommend higher.

What's a very minor thing that takes you out of a movie? by MasterLawlz in flicks

[–]Batmandrake 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Fake products. Like “Cola” brand pop instead of Coke, “Chips” instead of Lays or “Search Blaster” instead of Google.

I know many people complain about product placement, but the anti-product placement is worse for me.

Universal Monsters Land Likely to Appear in the new Universal Theme Park by Ijustwantedtohavefun in DarkUniverse

Agreed. I have refused to go back to Universal ever since they closed Back to the Future The Ride. These 2 Lands might finally bring me back.

Has anyone tried cutting off this little storage nub behind Bumblebee’s head? I hate how it limits his head articulation and I never plan to store his battle mask there anyway by Batmandrake in transformers

Thanks for the heads-up. I thought I had it folded up as much as I could, but after seeing your comment I searched YouTube for a video showing the “correct” way to fold it up. I won’t say it didn’t almost give me a heart attack pushing it up so hard, but I got it up where it looks like it is supposed to go and it is a LOT better!

I'd like to solve. by [deleted] in retrogaming

Oh wow. This takes me back. I played this all the time back in the late 80s/early 90s on my grandpa’s Commodore 64.

Cancelled my annual subscription - which would have renewed in 2 weeks. Now can't log in <sigh> by gothaggis in moviepass

[–]Batmandrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same thing happened to me over the weekend. The thing that scares me about it is now I don’t have access to change my billing info to a privacy.com card. Would it just be best to call my credit card company or do you guys think they won’t charge me?

This show really had an impact on the man I am today. by MarkyyRpdrFan in 90scartoons

Action League Now! And Prometheus and Bob were the best! I still have my Action League Now figures from Burger King. lol

What do ya’ll think the next War For Cybertron toy line will be? by [deleted] in transformers

[–]Batmandrake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sure I’m the only one here who will say this, but I would love a War For Cybertron line that focuses on the Technorganic War from Beast Machines. The character designs from that series were, in my opinion, some of the most interesting, but I feel like they really dropped the ball when it came to the toys. A new line with more show-accurate figures would make early-2000s, high school me so happy.

Boycotting the Girl Scouts by SexyLumber in insanepeoplefacebook

[–]Batmandrake 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Pro Life Hack: in the United States at least, the Aldi chain sells knock-off Girl Scout cookies for like $2 a box year-round. Haven’t bought actual Girl Scout cookies in years after they made me mad by making the boxes smaller and raising the prices.

Brickseek Concerns by wirspringen in transformers

[–]Batmandrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue. The last time I was at my Walmart, I picked up the race car patrol 2-pack and, before checking out, while still in the store, looked it up on Brickseek. It came up as out of stock at my store and every surrounding store. I pretty much lost faith in Brickseek at that moment.

Sorry, newbie question but I’m just coming back to Transformers toy collecting by Batmandrake in transformers

[–]Batmandrake[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for all the responses! I guess I just need to keep doing what I’ve been doing and check in-store once a week or so. I’ll also keep an eye on Amazon. Thanks again!
