Lupis has been eaten by the homework monster, but Protoman has come to help Vangelus, Aaron, and Omegus pull him back out as they discuss Slash and more.

Thanks. I had figured it out except for the "h" and it was driving me nuts.
Aaron
It is an acronym for Classics, Henkei, Universe, Generations. Meant to convey a modernized G1 aesthetic. It also is not approved by anyone with sense, since they are different lines that don't need to be mushed into an acronym that has already obsolete with Reveal the Shield and the shifting of the style of the Hunt for the Decepticons line.

Okay, I may have missed it, but what the heck is "chug"?

I have a listener question!
Transformers engineering has evolved a long way, and you talk about it a lot on the podcast, but do you think it's progressed to the stage that Transformers: Prime would require to translate the designs into plastic form, or do you think Hasbro and Takara will have to develop brand new engineering tricks and illusions? If so, what do you think these tricks will look like?

My Terradive has thighs that are so loose that its legs just fall of when ever it is moved in any way. Its like the legs aren't even part of the same toy.
The Fugitoid is not that long ago, I still have not got around to opening it yet..
I love that Turtle era, the cartoons and the toys are all good to me.

Pics of WingBlade Metalhawk!

Omegus made me really, really want to pick up Slash. But then I saw he's selling on amazon for like… 25 bucks. >_< Gonna wait til I have some more spare cash to throw around.
Katamari Prime
That's the accesory thaT Slash always needed, a palm tree.

Where's the "G"?
DeeJay
Too late, though. They already gave us U (and two, at that). All we would need would be an I and we could have QUIXZURCH (quicksearch).

Good eye. You're the fist person to notice. I posted these in the "cool stuff" thread and no one caught that.
I've had that Slash since my childhood. Too bad his belt and weapons didn't survive with him. I always thought it was weird though that Tokka would come with the belt and same weapons as Slash even though he never had either in the movie.
Protoman
You know what's smart about this. You got the cartoon guys paired together, and the movie guys paired together. Good ol' Tokka

They should just release three different Classics lines at the same time, each with near impossible first letters to use. Q, X, and Z.
Rotorstorm
the name CHUG's long due demise looms, can only hope that Hasbro renames generations to kill that acronym.
Where's the pictures of Animated wingblade metalhawk? I have to see that to believe it, I so want to believe it…

hmmm..i have every megatron toy, from G1 to current(WFC megs), on a big dresser…. looking at them now,all together in a group, i have to say the one that sticks out as bad ass is RID … i never saw an episode, but as far as the toy goes he is the scariest, meanest, and bad assed looking one. least favorite megatron out of all of them, alternity megatron… just my opinion, but ugh…. doesn't even belong on the dresser with the rest.

CHURG.
Or hey, GURCH? Can I buy another vowel Pat? Please?

Speaking of Slash…
Spiky guys like hanging out together.

Character wise I'll go with BW Megs. He's just so bad ass in so many levels. David Kaye nailed it. I hope to one day we get a Megatron as great as this. I can't compare him to Animated since I never bothered to watch it. Every time I tuned in it was something too goofy going on. But I do want to be educated so are there boxed sets for this series? I'm interested in seeing it in big chunks. Who knows, maybe Animated Megatron will surprise me.
Toywise… Besides BW all Megatrons are meh….
