In the second season of the original Transformers cartoon we were introduced to the Decepticon Triple-Changers Blitzwing and Astrotrain, the first Transformers with two different alternate modes. Pretty much the first thing they did was[…]
My buddy Caked-Up dared me to write a 5,000 word review on Godbomber, which I did. So he paid up and sings (well, speaks, really) the Masterforce intro song. Bonus points for getting through it[…]
Sometimes all you need is a badass quote. Here are some favorites of mine, featuring Razorclaw (from 3H Productions Transformers Universe comics), Straxus (from Marvel Transformers comics), Megatron, Optimus Primal, and Rampage (from Beast Wars[…]
Do you own Last Knight Optimus Prime (Voyager Class)? Are you a resident of Germany? If yes, this is your chance to win a Mega Turbo-Changer Dragonstorm or an RC Sqweeks in the Hasbro Germany[…]
When I was browsing the toy aisles and looked at the box of Last Knight Infernocus (one of the stranger names in TF history, btw), I first read this as “George”. Why isn’t there a[…]
Reyjin and I doing a live review of Last Knight Nitro at C.O.N.S.
Nine is kind of a strange number, isn’t it? What can you do with a nine? It’s not quite a ten, tough luck, and ninth parts are usually … well, for one thing very rare[…]
Do you know how hard this is? No, I’m not talking about organizing a Transformers Fan Convention in Germany. We’ve done that eight times, we know how it works by now. No, I’m talking about[…]
It was the year 1986 and after two seasons of watching the adventures of Optimus Prime and his Autobots taking on Megatron for control of the Earth’s resources, there came the animated movie. And let’s[…]
To this very day I consider Cheetor from Beast Wars the best-developed character in the history of the entire franchise. Across three seasons of Beast Wars and two seasons of Beast Machines we saw him[…]
Every once in a while you wonder what might have been. What great story-telling or character-development opportunities briefly teased at your imagination, but then failed to materialize. Today we are looking at one such opportunity.[…]
Seeing as I’ve already dealt with Revenge of the Fallen and Age of Extinction, as well as explaining why I think the original 2007 Transformers movie was pretty good and doesn’t really need to be[…]
When it comes to Star Trek movies there is no beating Star Trek II – The Wrath of Khan, but the one movie that came very, very close for me was Star Trek VI –[…]
The Transformers live-action movies directed by Michael Bay have polarized the fandom in an extreme manner. These days it seems you either consider Michael Bay the rapist of your childhood and devil incarnate or the[…]
After the first live-action movie featuring the Transformers performed well and got relatively positive reviews (for a summer action blockbuster), a sequel was quickly green-lit and put into production. Unfortunately said production fell right into the[…]
The first season of the new Robots in Disguise series is history, so it’s time to take a look back. Despite being a sort-of sequel to Transformers: Prime, this new series differs a lot from[…]
First off, let us not start into another discussion on Michael Bay and whether or not he raped our childhood or saved the Transformers or is the devil incarnate or whatever. Personally I am not[…]
Beast Wars was, in my opinion, the best Transformers series when it comes to the quality of the plot and characterization. And here are my very own top 10 moments from the three seasons of[…]
Renowned comic artist Phil Jimenez had, at one time, pitched a comic book crossover between the G1 Transformers and DC Comics’ Justice League. Sadly the proposal never went anywhere, but oh my, look at that beautiful[…]
Transformers Prime, the main Transformers cartoon series that ran three seasons from 2011 through 2013, was a bit of a mixed blessing. On one hand it looked gorgeous, if a bit dark, and had possibly[…]
In order to do some streamlining on my main site, transformers-universe.com, I will use this blog to basically outsource anything that isn’t picture galleries, reviews or toy information. Not sure how quickly this will grow[…]
According to popular psychology the seventh year is something like the make-it or break-it point of a marriage or relationship. The year in which a couple have either adapted to each other so well they[…]
