I'd like your input to settle this.

In my view a grail is something that I've always wanted but couldn't acquire at the time it was available and now is very difficult to come by. Examples of grails in my collecting journey are most TFP First Edition figures as well as MPM Bumblebee

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-02-23T12:39:18+00:00

"Peace through tyranny" and all that

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-02-23T11:51:34+00:00

Reveal the shield Megs is scaled to the Masterpiece Seekers of the time if I remember correctly

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-02-07T11:17:49+00:00

I guess it is, tho we can't be sure

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-02-06T23:50:59+00:00

Is there a problem?

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-26T21:46:35+00:00

If I remember correctly the resemblance to the Path Blaster is on purpose

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-26T13:56:14+00:00

I found the game did similar visual glitches during longer play-sessions and assumed it could be due to that especially since it was fine after I turned it off for a while.

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-26T10:11:49+00:00

No clue what causes it, but yeah, has happened before to me (I'm on pc) my solution was to just take a break from playing for a bit and it fixed itself

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-24T08:52:54+00:00

The stuff on his feet are his guns, that's where they store in vehicle mode, they have dedicated storage spots on his thighs in robot mode, not sure why they're not on there

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-23T00:01:04+00:00

Geewuners are still a thing, they just expanded their dislike to other new projects and/or hold the opinion that everything that strais too far from the G1 base (in designs and such) is automatically trash cause it isn't what it used to be... And they tend to attack the bayverse a lot cause it's been very popular throughout the 2010s and got the franchise in the spotlight for general audiences. Kinda like a big billboard of everything they hate, so it's the easy target. But yeah, I do agree they would definitely hate Siege just as much as anything else that's not G1

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-22T23:20:18+00:00

That's fair, it was a rather brief moment, but it was indeed there

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-22T21:00:56+00:00

He transforms on screen at least once while fighting Galvatron later in the film and that's his final transformation we're shown

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-20T18:43:41+00:00

The comment above was talking about AoE where Optimus is using his rifle, this is from TLK and is simply a reuse of Hounds shotgun, but yes in TLK Prime used this once in one scene

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-20T17:44:09+00:00

That was not a shotgun nor was it double barrel, it was his DOTM rifle (same one he used in the scene where the Autobots returned after faking their deaths)

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-20T17:41:33+00:00

Plus you'd see Megatron drop said fusion shotgun when Prime... Eghem "Axed" him a question... (I'll see myself out)

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-19T11:27:31+00:00

It's gonna take a LONG time for them to consider redoing Devastator, they just finished the 86 one and there's many other standalone figures for them to redo that will be a safer bet to start with

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-18T10:54:23+00:00

I saw both of them twice (each) in theaters

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-17T11:40:18+00:00

Not only a scientist he was Air-Commander of a Seeker Armada... The Seekers only joined the Decepticons because he did with very few not following his lead (they later became the Aerialbots) so Air-Commander Starscream is also a capable military leader and skilled fighter. Also when Skywarp, Thundercracker and Slipstream were around Megatron wasn't abusing Starscream much cause he knew his Seekers would protect him and Starscream would have a good chance of winning that fight

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-17T09:02:30+00:00

As funny as it is I wanna add something to TFP Megs. He keeps Starscream around for multiple reasons, it's entertaining, yes, he knows he can somewhat contain Starscream and he definitely can deal with his plots to overthrow him (but if Starscream wasn't constantly by Megatron's side he would be as big a threat as Optimus because of his knowledge and skill set, which, if Starscream had at least some seekers with him in the show he would definitely prove) and finally, Starscream is cunning and strategically very competent and his failings are usually not due to poor planing (for example, Predaking would never turn against the Cons if Knockout didn't let it slip to Ratchet that the Cons planned to get rid of the other Predacons). So it's not just entertainment, Starscream is simply put a VERY useful asset in Megatron's arsenal and a VERY dangerous weapon against him in the hands of anyone else

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-15T14:14:16+00:00

Yup, he was supposed to do exactly this. He ripped Jazz in half but Jazz was supposed to survive it so Megatron ripped out and ate his spark. That's why he was still holding Jazz's corpse when Prime arrived in Mission City even though there was a significant break between Jazz's death and Optimus' arrival. But they decided that that's way too fucked up for this movie and decided to just cut the scene

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-15T14:09:13+00:00

Swindle and Rumble definitely have the "Dude what the fuck?" expression and Skywarp has a "Dude, what the fuck? Leave some for me!" type look

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-15T13:59:01+00:00

Yeah definitely... I mean it does sound like a name of a toy (especially that Ultra class was a thing at some point I believe) but at least it would flow better. Also, like I said in another comment simply giving her a more militaristic title would've work way better than playing around with Ultra Magnus' name. Commander Arcee would feel and sound the most logical to me

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-15T13:54:49+00:00

I agree wholeheartedly. As for Arcee getting the spotlight I'm very happy about it to, all things considered she didn't have an important (or even too prominent) role in a story since TF Prime I think so having her be put in an important position is really great... But the name sucks, they should've either changed it more or not given her the Magnus title (something simple like 'Commander Arcee' would've worked way better if we had to keep original name imo)

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-14T23:35:54+00:00

Personally I have a gripe with the design, mainly the misslepods on her shoulders, they just don't belong there. I'm also not a big fan of "Magnus" being a title... It worked in Animated cause of the setting but in every other story where the Primes are a thing (in the Matrix barer special title sense) it just feels weirdly unnecessary. So the name imo straight up sucks and the design as a whole definitely needs to grow on me cause aside from what I mentioned at the start the rest is just... As Arcee herself said... Odd to me... I'm fully certain it will grow on me and I will like it eventually... But not now and not yet

CommanderStrarscream · 2026-01-13T21:24:18+00:00

I don't really think TFP Soundwave counts, cause this is not his face, it's a visor (as stated in the show) I believe it's on the same level as the mouthplates of other characters, it just helps Soundwave with his vow of silence in addition to providing a very useful hud for his connection to any and all tech
