So today SHOULD be the Zeztz reviews, but it has been busy on the backend and I haven't seen the episodes yet, so we'll hold off a few days.

I'm assuming they hit the reply button too fast? Like "It's only fat men in pajamas that like the Dodgers"?

Ever wonder what Bumblebee with the Matrix would look like? Put two Cyber Combiners together and you get a good idea.

...it is weirdly satisfying how well the briefcase fits.

Sure Game Freak, let's introduce the children to the existential crisis nice and young.

I keep seeing this go around so just to add my experience, I've transformed my Jetstorm several times now without issue. A lot of these breaks seem to be user error, the hinge has a slide that's easy to miss, but it's how the original toy worked, too.

Reports of Breakage on the $90 Transformers Armada Nemesis Prime Pack

Sorry to pile on some bad news but we wanted to warn you of potential breakage issues on the Armada Nemesis Prime which is now coming out. Multiple fans have posted images showing breakage on the Jetstorm minicon, especially in the chest area. Some have been out of the box while others occurred after a couple of transformations, like the images from Sparkimus Prime. What makes the breakage more heartbreaking is that this figure has a $90 USD price tag. So just be careful when yours comes in.

Video might be late today, apparently YouTube is just being an ass today for a lot of people.

In D&D, absolutely. Year plus slow burn breaking down the edgelord rogue, this was me every time I got a major romance moment in.

I would still love to get you to voice something for me but any time I have something I always feel bad asking you to add to your already full plate.

This is Renard Perdu. He was raised by an Elven hunter, meaning Elvish was his first language, and he spoke broken Common, sounding like a caveman. Because of this and his friendly nature, people assumed he was simple minded, but he was clever, a master of stealth, and earned the title Apex Hunter.

I can't believe Min is beating Starscream, she's Megatron all over again.

So they figured out laser pointers can actually be bad for cats, since they can't catch it, it messes with their hunting instinct and can actually cause anxiety over things they can't catch being in their area.

Yeah, no idea what Hasbro's thinking with this one. I can't fathom how this set is supposed to be worth $260 when it's 3 3/4" scale and the previous Tron toylines ended up at liquidation shops.
