What about Dirge's sister? What about Dirge's partner? As for Dirge, i'm trying not to make any judgments without knowing why he/she/it did it, and if Dirge doesn't want to explain why he/she/it did it, i'll try not to pry into whatever Dirge doesn't want to share--but if Dirge does want to share, i...

Welcome to TransFormerLand! Thanks for helping me break my latest not-posting streak. i am highly confident that item 3 in the first picture is one of the weapons that came with the Playmates brand Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles action figure Panda Khan. i suspect item 6 is one of Tokka's weapons from...

Why aren't you RPing?

Are any of these reasons the reason you haven't contributed to the TransFormerLand Role-Playing Game recently, if ever? You're too busy with non-TF stuff in your life. You're too busy with non-TFL stuff in your life. You're too busy with TF and/or TFL stuff in your life other than the RP. You're wai...

TF soldiers, civilians, "facial" recognition

Here's something i've wondered about for quite some time. Suppose that the Cybertronian civil war is a world-spanning conflict, more like Earth's Second World War than the American Civil War. The conflict spread to regions all over the globe, rather than being confined to the territory of just one o...

Trigger Treat!

((i got this idea and wrote it up on Halloween. TF stories sometimes show how TFs react to certain Earthling customs and holidays, like Christmas. What do TFs think of Halloween?)) "So, have you thought about what kind of costume you might want to wear for Halloween?" "I don't underst...

Shark Tank: Transform and roll out!

Tonight i saw a commercial for the TV show Shark Tank . i think the episode i'm interested in airs on Friday, November 9, 2012. i've never actually watched the show, only seen ads and a few bits and pieces while channel surfing, but if i understand correctly, the show is about real people with inven...

Transformers Chess

Did you know that there is a Transformers-themed version of chess ? Too bad the gameplay is exactly the same as non-TF chess. As in other themed chess games, the characters might look cool, but they make it hard for me to keep track of what each piece is (and thus, how they can move). i like chess, ...

Transformers Monopoly

Did you know that there's a TF-themed version of Monopoly? According to http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Monopoly ,players can move around the board using tokens resembling Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Jazz, Megatron, Starscream, Soundwave, Grimlock, Ironhide, Shockwave, or Ravage. i think someday i'd like to pl...

Really wasn't expecting VHS to be worth much to anybody; sounds like it can be, but only to a select few who probably aren't easy to find. Think i'll hang onto what i've got for now.

Want, but shouldn't spend my money on them. Higher priorities should go to TF figures, catching up with IDW (i am so far behind--like, Escalation behind) or maybe DW G1. And SG! i don't even know how to acquire SG, but it's such a neat concept, i'd like to actually read it instead of just reading ab...

In the real world as a kid I thought pretenders were a stupid gimmick and I don't know how popular they were.

What If? reimagining G1 and beyond

Imagine an alternate reality. Let's call it AUX (short for Alternate Universe X). In AUX, all TF toys released before G2 came out were identical to the ones in our universe, and all the TF comics and TV shows that came out before G2 did were basically the same as the ones in our universe, but with o...

Congratulations! Does the female one have a name yet, or are you waiting until she goes to Autobot Boot Camp? In the meantime, you could nickname her "May"--or, if you're fans of Star Trek and/or Seinfeld , you could call her "Seven". How's her brother taking to her? Congrats and...

Who are the most important TF characters you don't have any toys of? Who are the most important TF characters represented in your collection only by KOs or 3rd party figures? What kind of "substitutions" do you use in your collection? (For example, Energon Downshift as a stand-in for G1 Wh...
