Did you miss us? It's another episode of this little thing we like to call a podcast. Scotty P is here piloting us to another adventure in speculation and reflection.

He can't shake'em, as Cobotron and Tigertrack, shake and bake from one theory to another helping to push us all to the finish.

Episode #253 “Danger Zone” is available directly and in our RSS Feed, and should appear on Apple Podcasts, Google Play, and Stitcher Radio within 24 to 48 hours of when you see this news post.


Seeking the seekers. How is your fortune?



We couldn't avoid lamenting on a couple of leaked figures' images - Earthrise Thrust and a new mold Cyclonus make an unofficial appearance.



The newest version of Transformers Crossovers (cue Top Gun theme)...and what other crossovers might work?



A hot second on a new video game...

Will we see an official Black Zarak now? Or is this the extent of his reference?



I broke down and ordered a shirt and so did Scotty P. Did you? Fan First Friday Transformers was t-shirts.

We spend some time with IDW Transformers Issue #20 "Rise of the Decepticons". Content was written months ago, and yet its release, here and now, is very timely. We try to treat this issue's controversial topic with sensitivity, understanding and perhaps, new perspective.

As a mood lightener, we also have some fun playing spot the bot in the audience at 'Swindle's' as we marvel at this crowd scene by artist Anna Malkova. Whom do you see?





And for our finale...bragging rights...
Cobotron insists that he is the mightiest! Who's going to argue?

• Netflix toys have been acquired with the latest Wal-Mart reset, and they rock - get Best Megatron before he's gone!
  
• Time for some listener questions. Our very own D-Max asks: "The alternity figures, how worth it is it to pursue them? do you guys have any? What are your overall thoughts on them?"
  
• He follows up with: "Have you ever had a time where you went to a friends, and either saw or bought a figure from them that led to a whole new rabbit hole that you went down and enjoyed?"
  
  
  
  
• We close out this episode as we often do, with a round of bragging rights.

New Galleries: Generations Selects Seacons and King Poseidon

Seibertron.com is proud to bring you seven new galleries for the Transformers Generations Selects Seacons. All together, there are almost 1,500 images because there is a lot of ground to cover with the Seacons. Since they are all combiners, the limbs have five modes each: leg, arm, robot, beast mode with Snaptrap only having the beast, robot and torso modes (though we attempted a Snaptrap weapons/base/attack mode for your viewing pleasure). On top of that, each of the limbs also have a Targetmaster mode. You will find an individual gallery for Turtler (Snaptrap), Lobclaw (Nautilator), Kraken (Seawing), Gulf (Skalor), Overbite and Tentakil, along with their combined form King Poseidon (Piranacon).

And unlike other combiners, since there are five different limbs, you can get many different configurations when combining them into Piranacon and chosing which one to use as the gun. We cover all of those along with the gun modes being held simply by Snaptrap and Overlord.

The gallery for King Poseidon will also show him off against God Ginrai and Grand Maximus as well as group images with the other Decepticons from the Masterforce cartoon such as Overlord, Dreadwind, Darkwing "Blackwing", the Prime Master Pretenders (Bomb-Burst, Skullgrin, and Submarauder), and Titans Return Headmaster Juniors (Fangry, Horri-Bull and Squeezeplay). In addition to King Poseidon wielding each Seacon member in Targetmaster mode, we came up with several "blaster" combinations that utilize each of the Seacons guns combined to form a massive blaster (which the instructions unfortunately failed to demonstrate an official combined gun mode).

While these figures are all based on previously released molds, the remolding and added parts really make them unique and it is a wonder to behold. We hope you enjoy these galleries!

-SG MP Tigertrack is a thing! No not really, but the beautiful red Diaclone Sunstreaker is! MP Spinout is amazing and a total surprise! Even though it is a mall exclusive, preorders are already live on Hasbropulse and other wonderful online stores.

Up next are new galleries of Voyager Class Grapple and Deluxe Class Cliffjumper from this year's Transformers War for Cybertron Earthrise series. Both figures might be the best representations of either of these characters from the regular product lines (excluding Masterpiece). Grapple includes several accessories to recreate his look in the G1 cartoon, as does Cliffjumper who includes his giant glass gas blaster in addition to a set of skis to recreate one of his iconic moments. Both galleries include traditional shots as well as comparison shots for your viewing pleasure. Grapple's gallery includes images alongside his Constructicon "friends" and his buddy Hoist. Cliffjumper's gallery includes some comparisons with Titans Return Bumblebee and his Earthrise wave-mates.

The Transformers War for Cybertron Earthrise products have been popping up at various retail chains like Walmart, Target and Best Buy throughout the past couple of months as well as online websites such as Amazon.com as well as our sponsors. Make sure to share your sightings with your fellow Seibertronians in our sightings section and sightings forums.
