A Prime Collection update - July 9, 2008 6:49 PM
It's been a while since I updated my Prime collection on Flickr; it's been since before Botcon, in fact. I've added eight to the collection since then, starting with: Music Label Convoy, G1 Colored Version I picked this one up...
Armada/Micron Legend Supercon Optimus Prime - March 25, 2008 9:43 AM
Transformers: Armada, for the most part, sucked. It was an interesting experiment; the Mini-cons were a neat idea, and I'm glad they've been carried over into subsequent lines. But all of the fiction, cartoons and comics, made me wince...
Generation One Optimus Prime - March 7, 2008 2:55 PM
I've realized that I can't do a review series of Optimus Prime figures without first taking a look at the original. When I speak of 'classic Optimus design elements,' it'd be nice to have something to link to. Of course,...
Movie Voyager Optimus Prime - February 21, 2008 11:57 AM
Of the myriad versions of Optimus Prime to be released in conjunction with the 2007 Transformers movie, this one is simply the best. Granted, it isn't the most accurate to the film (the Leader-class figure can claim that distinction), but...

Transformer Movie Toy Roundup: Ironhide - June 14, 2007 3:27 PM
When I got my first batch of movie figures in the wee hours of the morning on June 2, I hadn't planned for Ironhide to be among them. I wasn't a fan of the photos I'd seen thus far, and...
THS 02 - Hybrid Style Convoy - May 14, 2006 9:32 PM
Tiny is the best word to describe this Optimus. The figure stands just over four inches tall, meaning it barely comes up to the original Optimus' waist, and is just a hair taller than the PVC figures. Of course,...
The New Teen Titans: The Judas Contract - February 21, 2006 9:35 PM
This is not a mystery story. The title implies betrayal, but there is never any attempt to hide the traitor's identity. If you don't know already, I'll go ahead and tell you. The traitor is Nightwing. Just kidding. The Titans...
