  1. Great to finally hear from James on the Podcast !!! Being also sponsored by Primetoys.net been wondering when he was going to get his appearance on the show. ( Also with the Transceivers Chat??).
    I am most excited about the MP Optimus Primal. Which I will be more than likely pre-ordering from Primetoys soon.
    I will admit the Energon cubes do look really cool. and they are a very nice idea with the remote and all. But the price is kind keeping me from getting them.
    Keep up the great work guys. And here is to hoping any of you guys will join us for the next Transceivers Chat at the end of the month. You are all invited of course.

  2. I also want to give Mike a BIG GREAT JOB for the use of the great 80s cartoon openings music. Opening show themes of today have nothing compared to then. Loved Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors. If I can make some suggestions for him to use …Galaxy Rangers , Bravestarr , Gargoyles , Silverhawks , just to name a few.

    I would agree the intro was ok, but I was hoping to hear some talk about the series/toy line in the show… it was one of the few toy lines I did complete way back then.

    • Sorry about that. Mike put the intro in during the editing process and the opening was a surprise to us as well!

  4. I have a submission for what I think is a neat KO for your “korner”. I know you seem to be interested in high end improved KOs, but what always interested me is bizarre crossovers, and I found a dozy. Displayed at the Canton Toy Fair last weekend were a LOT of KOs, including one company that is making a Transformers/Marvel crossover line that’s simply bizarre. Their first three toys are Iron Man made from Generations Leader Jetfire, an Iron Man Hulkbuster made from an oversized AoE Hound (become fire ladder truck!), and a Captain America made from AoE Galvatron! I have not been so excited for a KO Krossover since I found those Rear Gear Robots who turned into Ben10 aliens.

  5. I love these Planet X Dinobots! Its a line where you really see the quality and ingenuity improve more and more with each release. The Paddles figure for me, is a instant preorder! Great show gents!
