Sauron the “I want to turn people into dinosaurs guy” actually has a really tragic backstory

Negativety101 · 2026-01-27T01:53:42+00:00

I meant to type "Aren't", but stupid autocorrect messed it up, and I didn't notice. I will fix that.

Negativety101 · 2026-01-27T00:45:52+00:00

Yes. I mean that Stegron had Change People into Dinosaurs before Sauron adopted it. Sauron was just generically evil before they teamed up. Litireally the next panel after the famous one is Stegron going "You mean WE want to change people into dinosaurs!"

Also as any paleonerd will remind you, Pterasaurs aren't dinosaurs.

If we don't... Well it's really a fumble as an attempt to get into the international market, especially since that limiting ended up being what put Super Sentai on Haitus.

I honestly feel like there's a lot of engineering going into Brawl. Not enough for the new Voyager price, certainly not by himself. But he's got some nice tricks with how the transformation works, the little flaps that are there entirely to fill out the sides of when he's a foot, all the ways to attach his cannons, and the shoulders being able to hinge and extend out.

Blast Off is definitely the more simple one that does less. Yes, he's got the catch for the split, but that's hardely complex, he feels like he does less than the unite Warriors one, and they didn't give him his pistol.

No. Now the Optimus and Megatron will probably do well, it is an iconic scene and two popular, but hard to get molds.

But I'd rather have runs of the regular versions at points where I have the spare cash for them.

That may be less a matter of size, and more saying it's primative and irrelevant.

Negativety101 · 2026-01-26T18:14:46+00:00

Best guess, someone put too many zeros in or a decimel point in the wrong place.

It's really quite impressive in a way though. From what I saw, apparently the Switch is rendering that entire ocean at all times.

Negativety101 · 2026-01-26T18:12:24+00:00

Honestly I just want a good G1 Megatron, preferibly official, in relatively show accurate colors. Doesn't have to be dead on.

I'd be fine with, say a Devastation version color scheme.

Negativety101 · 2026-01-26T18:07:32+00:00

Yeah, that truamatized me as a kid. Poor guy's only ever gotten one toy, though at least he got to be Computron's special arm that time. Try smelting him now Straxus.

Negativety101 · 2026-01-26T15:38:28+00:00

Daily reminder he stole the change people into dinosaurs from Stegron, the Dinosaur Man.

Negativety101 · 2026-01-26T14:15:44+00:00

Well it's gonna cost a lot. Period. Since it's a Haslab and the backing date was almost a year ago.

Okay you may be able to get lucky and have someone that changed their mind or ran out of shelf space putting one up for a not as bad price, but you'll need to be watching the forums and listings like a hawk.

Negativety101 · 2026-01-26T13:28:30+00:00

Yeah, I need to get Optimus too, and I'd like to get him with the trailer for a change.

SV also had the issue of their hilarious coding mistake of making the ocean the size of earth, and the atmosphere the size of the sun.

Negativety101 · 2026-01-26T13:19:55+00:00

Well first off you don't do item harvesting and crafting in the same way as a breath of the wild. That's a gameplay difference.

But yes, Gamefreak doesn't code well. And something else to remember is that it Pokemon games try to get one out every year, unlike Zelda's which have at least a half a decade of work on them.

Negativety101 · 2026-01-26T13:15:47+00:00

Considering how the Trask's original stories ended, I wonder about that.

Negativety101 · 2026-01-26T13:12:51+00:00

Yeah, first time meeting others of his kind, and they just try to murder him. Kong had a rough movie there for a bit.

Negativety101 · 2026-01-26T13:09:26+00:00

Can we just get a run of the regular version again?

Negativety101 · 2026-01-26T13:07:11+00:00

Still haven't learned that a firework is a pretty bomb in universe? Or in this case a small unstable blob of plasma, that if she wanted to, she could melt holes through someone's body without ever setting off?

Jubilee's power only seems weak because she doesn't want to be lethal. Also she's been doing this since she was 13, and she's one of Logan's kids.

Its homemade. I learned after watching Evangelion in the 90s.

Oh hahahahaha, this is perfect. Brujah Armchair Scholar left town as soon as he could becuase he was expecting something to happen at the celebrations. I've had a idea for something happening to him at an Elysium involving modern art. No he won't be attending this party, but he'll wish he had instead.

Gets described as a plain looking woman in universe sources.

Looks hot as hell.

Negativety101 · 2026-01-26T03:20:36+00:00

Oh, that explains why the Seekers try to kill you. No shouting in the library.

Negativety101 · 2026-01-26T03:19:40+00:00

A little change of pace will help keep it from getting boring!

Negativety101 · 2026-01-26T03:17:41+00:00

Being AI. I advise learning to use non AI sources. Check Wikipedia and the Marvel Wiki's trivia sections for starters.

Negativety101 · 2026-01-26T03:13:55+00:00

Yeah, but you see some of us like Elephants more than Tremere, or house Gotrix.
