They take a little while to get on the correct ball, but Seth Buzzard and Vangelus juggle a hole lot of ’em as they get into another episode of WTF Transformers chatter!

Every podcast needs a Monocle Ranger.

Does the next podcast contain TF4 Vehicle news?
Or was it recorded before it was seen?
Wingnut
Nah, he's missing his cape and epaulets.
Noizemaze
What do you think this is, PreOrder66?!

Can "Seth does funny voices" be a segment on every odd podcast? The Arnold voice and millionaire voice bits were the best part of the episode!

I'd like to thank you guys for finally clearing up what Aligned Continuity is, I think I finally get it and why it does nothing for a lot of us like Seth was saying. I avoided the topic for a long time simply because it made no sense to me, and since it didn't appeal to me I was able to filter it out, but now at least I know why it does nothing for me, and why it isn't supposed to be something I'd be interested in
SideswipePrime
Wait…they talk about Fighting is Magic in this episode? I think they could've released it before the hammer was dropped if the developers didn't get all butthurt over someone leaking their EVO build from the previous year, and stopped production for like 2 or 3 months.
I want to hear it now, but I still haven't yet listened to 252.

Speaking of Takara/Tomy if these rumors about Hasbro and Transformers are true everything is up in the air and there's no telling how any of this is going to go.
Aaron
Those are Alternators/Binaltech. Alternity is the more recent iteration from Takara/Tomy.
BlackHawkOmega
I remember seeing the Smokescreen in one of those Armada catalogs/comics.
Or are those alternators? I don't know the difference.
Vangelus
I wanna say that at a Botcon panel, Hasbro dudes said the licensed nature of Alternity was probably going to keep it a Japan-only deal. At the time of the panel, anyway.
Aaron
Alternity TFs haven't made a stateside appearance as far as I know.
typev3
Just a random thought on the whole Datsun/Nissan licensing issue:
Did the Alternity Transformers ever make it stateside? I remember Optimus and Megatron were both Nissan cars. In fact, Megatron was a modern day Fairlady Z – or what we know more commonly here as a 370Z. (The Fairlady Z branding is currently still used in asian markets)
Seth Buzzard
We don't know the full story on either new system yet. Xbox didn't talk much about games because it's so close to E3. Everyone spazing out should just chill until at lest E3 is over and even then I bet there will be questions about both Xbox One and PS4.
TrueNomadSkies
Virtual Boy's where its at tho.
Kaymac
I suppose you are right, but many people including myself are already looking at the Xbox One as a step backwards for Microsoft. It's really not an exaggeration to say they are making some bad decisions here, and will need some really good stuff to put them back on top of the console race.
I'm not a huge fan of console debates either, because the PS3 and Xbox 360 were pretty evenly matched, but with the Xbox One and PS4 on the horizon, both with widely varying methods of trying to garner attention, I don't know what to think.
Vangelus
Mine went in happily, just a bit tightly. If they're not fitting into the slots I'd file them down very very slightly, if they're fitting in but then popping out I'd try thickening the tabs very very slightly with floor polish.
agentSAP2006
I can't decide which is more entertaining; this podcast episode or this thread for it.
Hypershock
I can't seem to get a response anywhere else, so with the triple changers being an oft-discussed piece, i'll try here.
Anybody else having trouble pegging in Springer's pectoral pieces into the central chest thing? And, if so, can you recommend a fix for this?
