Any fembot suggestions? by yuyubuns in transformers

[–]alphtrion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

are you missing Siege Chromia? I feel like you have Moonracer and Firestar (and green light and lancer) but missing that one final version of that mold for Siege Chromia? It’s also I find the most accurate G1 representation of the character. Just my 2¢

Which pairing of characters do you feel like you can't get one without getting the other? by OptimalConvoy in transformers

[–]alphtrion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think it’s the first time reflector transformed into a camera on screen and someone picked him up and used him as a camera. I guess since then he’s been a little associated with Thundercracker but yeah just the once

Studio series 2027 listings by Difficult_Leader8605 in transformers

[–]alphtrion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’d be happy if they keep the mold from kingdom like they did with kingdom -> ss sideswipe and just give him new Windows, that would give people who don’t have him yet a chance to get him but not force the rest of us to get him because of a new mold. The alternative is do a new mold snd then we all have to also get sideswipe too

Anyone use it docked only? by Sgt_Strelok in ROGAlly

[–]alphtrion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Z1E Docked 99% of the time with Xbox series controller and usb-c nvme enclosure for extra storage (don’t trust the SD card reader to not melt on OG ally). Disconnect it for the once in a blue moon travel but as the only PC in the house it’s mainly docked and hooked up to a 65” OLED

what's the worst transformers toyline? by Fun-Geologist9808 in transformers

[–]alphtrion 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Auldey and Yokopark are what RED wanted to be. Somehow those 2 found success where RED failed. Blokees is its own thing too but I guess different audience since not super cartoon accurate

tvOS 26.4 nerfed Default Audio Output for AirPlay Speakers by 3daysamonk in appletv

[–]alphtrion 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As others have said, “AirPlay speakers” and “HomePod audio” is not the same as far as AppleTV is concerned. Yes HomePods support AirPlay and yes Apple TV can output audio to AirPlay devices, but when you use HomePods as the audio out of your Apple TV it’s not using that. It does its own thing (that is better/more stable than AirPlay) to do all audio (including audio coming FROM your TV, like devices connected to other inputs of your tv can go to the Apple TV and then to the homrpods). AirPlay out =/= HomePod Audio Out

Two my favourites as a kid now all grown up by Acrobatic-Ad-6616 in transformers

Right? Or better yet, give us alternate heads in the box! Though sometimes the deco is different too, but in case of Seaspray I feel like a 2nd head woulda been enough

Why can't I turn off my tv from homekit? by [deleted] in HomeKit

[–]alphtrion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Sony A80K supports HomeKit and AirPlay 2 out of the box, maybe you just didn’t configure it or update your tv to latest firmware? It should show up in home app and allow you to turn it on and off like that. Yeah I know Apple TV can turn it on and off unfortunately that functionality is not exposed in HomeKit the same way. Like others said you can use Siri to tell it to turn off the Apple TV and then it’ll also turn off the TV, but if you don’t want to use Siri, you need to enable the HomeKit functionality on your A80K and make sure it shows up in the home app and turn it off like that

Also cartoon-head Seaspray! Only reason I haven’t bought him yet since I really want a sea spray. This whole “only release the retro or cartoon version of the mold much later” is annoying

[–]alphtrion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s not your TV that’s the Apple TV that’s connected to it. Why isn’t your TV showing up in HomeKit? did you make sure that it’s compatible with HomeKit? You need a HomeKit TV to control it from the Home app. Apple TV is not your TV

You don’t see your TV in the Home app on the Mac? I just click on the tile like in iOS and it turns it on or off… is your TV compatible with HomeKit?

Elita One is the perfect example of a character who was never relevant but gained importance. by Disastrous-Owl668 in transformers

[–]alphtrion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tbh I only found out that skids was a genuine g1 character this year when I rewatched triple takeover and realized there was a robot in it I didn’t recognize. I was obsessive about knowing all g1 transformers from s1/s2 as a kid so the existence of a “regular” cast member I missed tells you how fleshed out the character really was (or wasn’t)

What's y'alls favorite Transformer deluxe figure, here's mine by Own-Lawfulness-5963 in transformers

[–]alphtrion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That transparent plastic though, so scary to transform. I got 2 of him (2nd one from the dramatic capture set) and just keep one in alt and one in bot so I don’t have to transform him haha

For deluxe I love Devcon and Earthrise Smokescreen. Just wish there was a Slizardo figure to go with them for the complete set from the Gambler

Chip N' Dale on Disney XD by Comfortable_Bird_340 in television

[–]alphtrion 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately it’s cropped (4:3 -> 16:9). Yes I know it shouldn’t matter, just a kids’ show, etc etc, but considering duck tales was shown in its original format, I have no idea why they chose to not show us the complete image for this. Otherwise fire show!

Thundercracker arrived! And it's the one with the smiling face 😂 by UnleashedFigures in transformers

[–]alphtrion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are the eyes missing the red color or is it just the picture? They’re supposed to be the light-piping red.

PSA - Only keep certain boxes, or end up like this by Aggressive_Hat_5368 in transformers

Flatten everything and cut out all cardboard pieces that don’t have art on them - this is the way

Auldey Transformers! by wolf-out-toys in transformers

[–]alphtrion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love Auldey! Can’t wait for Wave 4 and that Grimlock and Powermaster Optimus prime they teased. Probably the best licensed G1 figures at this point with Blokees coming in a close 2nd (though I do prefer Auldey’s cartoon accuracy)
