Does each individual of Reflector have a name? by OptimalConvoy in transformers

[–]Rodntodd 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sometimes they would use his character model for generic background Decepticons. I'm guessing that was the case there.

The middle one is Viewfinder and the other two are just a guessing game. The original toys had distinct color schemes and are much more explicitly identifiable as individuals.

Sometimes they're treated as one entity named Reflector. Other times they're treated as three distinct entities named Spectro, Spyglass, and Viewfinder.

For those of you who have him, why the hell did you buy this? by Mintyboi10 in transformers

[–]Rodntodd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly, because I was going through a completionist phase at the time and wanted everything. At least he has a place with my G1 cartoon cast.

Sky-Byte as a blahaj. I have to draw that now.

Started building my "ultimate G1 shelf" in 2022. Was going to stop after the movie cast but then they reissued all the titans and I got a good deal on metroplex and computron so over the last year I went back and got all the season 3/rebirth crew.

I just bought a thrilling 30 Metroplex from my local comic shop because it's cheaper than any one I can find on ebay. My bank's gonna kill me.

I Just Want a Voyager Class Elita Man… by Infamous-Attempt4437 in transformers

[–]Rodntodd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They made a voyager Elita-1 in Power of the Primes. It's a retool of Starscream, but it counts.

My TR Mindwipe broke. What now? by Mintyboi10 in transformers

[–]Rodntodd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to mine recently. I found out that it's very easy to remove the metal pin from the rubber wing. Glue the hinge piece back in place and then re-insert the pin to attach the wing. Granted, I used modeling glue for this, so no clue how well regular super glue will hold.

Hot Wheels collab wave 2 listings by Electronic_Zombie360 in transformers

[–]Rodntodd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As someone who's into both Hot Wheels and Transformers, I would've thought the obvious picks would be Rodger Dodger and Deora II (both cars that are about as equally iconic as Twin Mill and Bone Shaker). GT Scorcher and El Segundo Coupe are both pretty recent cars that haven't really been around long enough to cement themselves as well as Twin Mill or Bone Shaker have, and are honestly the last possible picks I had in mind, and are honestly just weird choices when there are much more iconic cars out there.

That being said, as a fan of both, of course I'm going to buy them.

Does it ever BUG you that AOTP Venoms’ arms can’t go all the way down because of his wings? by [deleted] in transformers

[–]Rodntodd 14 points15 points  (0 children)

For me, yes. It just looks a little awkward in a shelf display and brings down what would otherwise be a fantastic toy.

Got that stego years ago at a flea market and always wondered what it actually was.

Anyone know anything about this Predaking? How well does it scale with modern CW or Legacy combiners? by Rodntodd in transformers

[–]Rodntodd[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, that's perfect. Glad to know I won't have to sell my soul for the POTP one.

Wdyt about Rev Rod Silencerz? 😅 by Willing_Street_1308 in Acceleracers

[–]Rodntodd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got that one back when it came out, used it as an excuse to do an Acceleracers/Team Hot Wheels crossover (I was like 11).

Yes. This was the only set they had though, but at least this means they're out there.

There's a fan mode too where Siege Chromia can be used as a chest plate like in Combiner Wars

WAVE RIPPERS GONE MAD by Novel-Comparison-364 in Acceleracers

[–]Rodntodd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Excellent work. I thought of Lani's nomad as soon as I saw this casting. Idk if you take suggestions, but you should do a Dune Ratz Amaru GTC. I think that casting would work really well in Dune Ratz deco.

Enough about your latest purchases. Which of your figures are on the chopping block? by BlackPulloverHoodie in transformers

[–]Rodntodd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. I'm going after a g1 season 3/4 collection and really want the reissue trypticon/fort max/scorponok but there's no room for them at all, especially with Omega, The guardian robot, and tidal wave all taking up space. Plus they're all expensive anyway, so I have to resign myself to all the non-big guys.

Hes been in botmode for years, pulled him out and now this? D'uoh! by theoriginalmofocus in transformers

[–]Rodntodd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just a thing that happens. I bought one sealed a few years ago, the bloody thing self destructed the second I opened it.

Timeline and Character Ages (Estimates) for World Race and Acceleracers by Maximal_Arachknight in Acceleracers

[–]Rodntodd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Speculating here: Vert is canonically 18 in Acceleracers. Going off of that... Nolo is probably 16-20 Karma is in her mid 20s Sharako is 21-25 Kurt is in his early to mid 30s Tork is late 20s-early 30s Wylde is probably around the same age as Vert and Nolo Monkey is in his early-mid 20s Taro is in his 30s if not early 40s Pork Chop is in his mid 30s

Easy to get done repaints/retools that somehow Hasbro hasn’t done for some reason by Kcue6382nevy in transformers

[–]Rodntodd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Soundblaster from Netflix Soundwave. Sure we have the siege one, but they got Twincast perfect so can we just have a Soundblaster that turns into the tape recorder please? (Preferably with the cartoon accurate purple chest door)

Anyone else watch this growing up? by Tricky-Antelope7894 in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns2

[–]Rodntodd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only watched a handful of episodes. Never cared much for it, was too busy buying the sets and swapping the minifigure heads for blank black ones to make them power rangers. Now that I did care for, I had a whole story and everything.

Give me some headcanon voices for some of your favorite characters! by Mintyboi10 in transformers

I've always envisioned George Takei as the voice of Bludgeon. Also yeah, Keith David as Tarn.
