oh, boy a new ep!..wonder what notes ill take today!?
Just to give you some update on the name Shuraking – The name is taken from the Star Rescue Team series. It’s the name of the dinosaur combiner, the one designed by TFC toys for that show years ago. Shuraking is the name of that combined robot. Since then several other companies have made dinosaur combiners and called them Shuraking. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0pXMsfwllE
Happy New Year!
I know it has been a while since I posted, but I have been listening to every episode since the last time I posted.
I filled out the survey, but I found it hard to choose the artist and writer nominees since so many of them did a great job in 2014.
Looking forward to new episodes in 2015. Later!
Correction for Darryl. They actually have done a Megatron for a lucky draw, the only one that I can think of is the Beast Wars Megatron, and it was all gold (gold chrome) The others I can list as if this moment is Magmatron from the Beast Wars Neo anime series which was done in gold chrome plastic and I think silver too. I am sure they have done many other Megatron’s in the past but that’s the only one I can think of.
Fill out the survey as soon as I noticed it was up.
You’re all very welcome for the small gift. Agian it was just a small token to say thanks for all the time you guys put into the podcast.
Selfless plug here. My wife started Bird Belts by Robyn because our girls needed belts to hold up thier pants but still easy enough for them to take off themselves so that we didn’t have accidents in the pants. Long story short we’ve started to move into landyards(on request…I believe RD_blade has one) and key chains. If anyone else is interested just contact me directly or through the link provide to the facebook page.
Another excellent show guys thanks!
I received the Twitter follow and followed back. Thanks! Those things are cool. You should consider registering a BotCon booth.
Another Great Episode!!! I really want those Combiner Wars figures. Though sadly my stores aren’t going to be getting them anytime soon. My closest of 3 Walmarts just recently started getting the Windblade set. And they didn’t last on the shelves.
I really like the way you guys did the comic review this week. If you can’t do them all you can do kind of quick reviews on some of them to make sure you get a review for them.
I need to sadly report that y local comic shop has closed officially. I don’t know the story of why they closed. Who knows they might still be going to reopen, but I not sure right now. SO looks like I will be a little behind on getting new books.
If I can ask if anyone can grab a extra copy of the Free Comic Book Day Transformers book or books that will be released this year for me I would really appreciate it.
Hey guys, Bert the Stormtrooper here! I finished listening to EP 85 this morning… JUST IN TIME FOR EP 86 which loaded to my Ipod this morning!!!
Anyway, I wanted to let you know I just put up reviews of both Combiner Wars Silverbolt and Optimus Prime if you guys want to get a closer look at those guys.
Talk to you soon!
