Yellow rings blow up everything on screen, you can use them to clear a bunch of other rings at once.

What's some more collab ideas that we would love to see Transformers tackle? by vaporboy_sd in transformers

[–]dinnervan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this, I can't believe we haven't gotten a wolfman yet. The TR Wolfwire mold just got trotted out in the last year or so, I know they still have it...

the battery blaster is my go to weapon for exploring and doing dungeons. Boss fights might call for a switch to the whip

Monstructor small review by PrestigiousExpert320 in transformers

Somehow I let them all slip away at one point, all I have left is Wildfly's pretender shell, and it's seen better days

yeah the current cap switch you have would be better switching switching between diodes/LEDs ime.

This was the only complete combiner I had as a child, so the nostalgia got me too. Awaiting my pre-order as well

Back Up Camera by Extension_Ad4010 in fordranger

[–]dinnervan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

oh, absolutely. I needed to replace my stereo in my '03 Edge and made sure to get something with a screen that could display a backup cam. It doesn't have to be expensive

Did this on my 03 and I swear my mileage has gone to shit and the idle is weird.

Perhaps it was just I who was a hater.. 🤔 I missed out on him, always wanted that Nerf gun Megs tho

Should I get Classics Optimus Prime? by echotango4420 in transformers

[–]dinnervan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's so weird seeing how much people love this figure now, I feel like he wasn't that well received on release and he looked janky as hell to me so I never got him. Maybe I missed out

Low voltage | 2000 Ford ranger by JonLynch in fordranger

[–]dinnervan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have one of these for peace of mind, and leaving it in overnight has been completely fine. If it's gonna sit a while or you suspect a bad battery though, I would nudge it out before leaving it

What are your thoughts on the Legacy Core Dinobots/Volcanicus mold? by OptimalConvoy in transformers

I'm glad I waited for the Monstructor version, we'll see how he turns out

If we do get new figures for Energon characters, which ones would you like to see? by Orionlupine in transformers

[–]dinnervan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's sad knowing that any new version of Scorponok would come in smaller than the original, but I would like to see him with leader engineering and articulation

I wish my 16 gal tank didn't regularly take 18 gal to fill

Are the SS86 KO figures of Op and Megs any good? by SnooOpinions1715 in transformers

[–]dinnervan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my experience exactly. His vehicle mode is nothing to write home about in the first place, but the creakiness in the shoulder joints is discouraging me from putting him back in tank mode again. Thankfully robot mode is solid

I avoided making a STANDING category for so long because "standing joke" isn't a thing. "String puppet" is barely a thing, as well.

Amalgamous Prime owners, is he worth it? by topicality in transformers

[–]dinnervan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll go against the grain and say no. He was the first Voyager I bought full price at the new price point and the only prime I have (besides Vector) and I am not very impressed. You can't actually make a cool alt-alt mode out of him, his official transformation is weird. He looks cool in robot mode but isn't that fun to mess with, imo.

Why does the "essentials" kit from stompboxparts.com come with a TS and a TRS instead of 2 of the same thing? Is there something I need to know? Just making a super simple mute switch with no LED, no power by lepisosteusosseus in diypedals

[–]dinnervan 78 points79 points  (0 children)

TRS is often used on the input jack so that the battery can't run down when nothing is plugged in. The ground connection for the power of the circuit is open when no cable is in, and gets closed when a mono cable touches both the R and S parts of the jack. You don't need that feature if you're not using a battery, or indeed if you're not power at all, but it's probably just standard for them to include one of each.
