When you were a kid you were all like "ew, girls are icky, I only want boy toys!". Now you have a cast of all male characters doing mature adult stories for mature adults like yourselves, so they're all homo as fuck.

Blame it on the misfortune of your birth.

Even when asked as a kid who my favourite transformer was and I'd reply 'optimus' (as even by that age I knew better than to like the 'unsafe'choice after getting in big trouble over laughing at the Bambi 'momma' scene in a cinema matinee..as in developmental psych ltesting trouble) I'd truely be thinking 'Starscream'

Hes truely a glorious git that more human than most other ftransformers

Nah, I just like characters like Starscream and found the Bambi scene funny (I think it was the setup that made the expectation of something bad inevitable)

If I was edgy, I'd say I cheered when Optimus died (I didn't as my broken hot rod toy from that time would attest) - I was just a smart brat so I learnt to hide non normal reactions to keep out of trouble

Maybe you need to review your definition of the 'edgy' meme anon.

It's more like a tablet, and why can't they? In G1 they used computers. Tablets have been a sci-fi staple for a long time now.

Everything non-Transformers (read: G.I. Joe) that happened before Revolution happened in the background of the pre-Revolution Transformers issues. Revultion and beyond, they're intermixing a bit more. Skywarp's a Joe. Microspace was created by Micronus Prime. Kup is hanging out with Action Man.

MTMTE's Revolution issue had a couple of the Scavengers using their holomatter avatars to pose as M.A.S.K. agents so they could team up with a Joe, while the rest of the Scavengers dealt with a Dire Wraith.

Not a Transformer. However, this one is, and his bio is amazing:
>Wire Tap V20 is a master code slicer for the Decepticons. No matter how tough the encryption, no matter how tight the security, Wire Tap V20 will find a way through. He’s a genius at compromising people’s computer systems. Wireless carrier waves allow him to remotely access your computer from the other side of the house, emptying bank accounts, cracking government code, and filling your browser history with compromising links. With him in your house, nothing is safe.

Well, considering they are releasing a convention exclusive boxset to go along with this fiction, it SHOULD remind you for Fun Publications. I doubt this will be nearly as expensive as a Botcon set though.
>>
>>15681461
>to go along with this fiction
m8, revolution ended last year. It's not like they were planning on making this set when they were making the comics. It's one following the other, not a package deal.

Besides, Jetfire wasn't even in Revolution.

I believe it's more of a showcase of properties Hasbro has rights to, and Revolution just happens to fit the bill for a portion of the figures involved.

Speaking of SDCC box sets and IDW comics, it was neat to see Windblade's SDCC deco again

A large chunk of the comics industry has basically just turned into an extension of Deviant Art.

Honestly it started as relatively realistic world building. Since originally, according to Furman, they're meant to be one gender that Jhiaxis forced a second gender and gender pronouns onto them when he created Arcee. Prior to the later retcons anyway so at the time they weren't even technically gay relationships. It was ruined though because it just became too integral. When there's no romantic gender barrier in a work of fiction friendships get skewed and blurred too much. Roberts is also a writer that's way too easily influenced by fans. Ships become canon when they don't need to, the dead come back when they don't need to, interesting plots are tossed aside when fans insult them or complain. He honestly shouldn't have a twitter.

I think the clunky introduction of more female bots, Hasbro taking more control, and the Original 13 lore tripped things up pretty bad too. I have no issue with female Transformers but they felt way to unnatural. For one the handwave of "Oh yeah we exist" while still trying to squeeze shit into prior canon was an issue, as was MTMTE shoving Nautica everywhere just because she was the only female on the ship. Roberts didn't just find one niche to put her in, he found as many as possible. During the first arc of "season 2" she does things a number of other characters could have handled. Including new characters. Which is a shame because she's a great design, and had at least some decent potential as a character at her core. The 13 primes and all that shit had no place in the IDW continuity. They had built up their own history and lore and they then awkwardly squeezed in the 13 into it too. It's a mess. I'm sure Hasbro forced it on them like they did events and toy-character focus.
>>
>>15681461
Only 100 dollars. Which is a pretty great price seeing as it comes with a 50 dollar leader-class, 6 Joe-like figures, and 9 minifigures. And everyone has a good amount of accessories to boot. For all you /pol/ kiddies out there Matt Tracker is now black though, and his figure is likely black under the mask. Sorry.

Said starscream has also a giant tsundere robo boner with Windblade, said Windblade also has said wet gears for him, and both act like Al and Peg Bundy towards each other

which is fully confirmed on the last TAOO comic
>>
>>15681453
No, Fun Pub was about multiversal fanservice mostly restricted to Transformers universes and Gobots.

This is about Hasbro desperately trying to stir up interest in a bunch old toy properties they've had lying around their basement (plus Gi Joe who's been on life support for a while) in hopes they can find a new cash cow like Transformers or MLP.

>>15693998
it's an interesting new take on some otherwise boring characters and it provides yet another scenario with Starscream being a scheming bastard that's about to have something blow up in his face spectacularly.
>>
>>15693998
>>15695244
it also gives some more information bout life on Eukaris, which is sorely lacking, and brings in a fun character from another series.
