Goto Youki’s got some amusing pictures. Oh, that wacky demon.

Big fight.
Scorponok versus Fortress Maximus.

Barrel of fun.
Why, yes, this transforming robot is happy to see you.

Biggest jerks of Guild Wars.
The 89-page thread is all the more entertaining given the contributions by posters who seem unaware they’re revealing themselves to be the real jerks in their anecdotes. This post, though not in the thread, is a good example.

Beast Wars Transmetals II Optimus Minor

A digi-doodle of Beast Wars Transmetals II Optimus Minor.

This was one of the worst Transformers ever produced and one of the worst action figures I have spent money on. There have been more wretched Transformers figures produced but Optimus Minor is particularly disappointing considering the period in which he was produced.

Hasbro and Takara were clearly capable of some great beast-to-robot Transformers designs and the Transmetals assortment proved it. The Transmetals version of Beast Wars Megatron is one of the figures from the Beast Wars era that I still rate highly.

Thus, it was something of a shock when the Transmetals II assortment was released. Everything was so X-TR3M3’d to the point I wished someone would go over to the designers’ houses and burn their collection of McFarlane Toys figures and Image Comics titles.

Solskjaer: “Teddy always trained hard and gave it his all, although I have to say he had a knack of knowing when to get injured – around November so he could get a sneaky week in the Bahamas.”

His custom painted faces are stunningly realistic. Steer clear of the link if photos of dolls in various states of undress bother you.
