Seibertron.com is proud to present our all-new Twincast/Podcast. The website's very first internet radio talk show! Every week we will be talking about the latest Transformers news and look back at some of the greatest moments in Transformers history. Enjoy the new Twincast podcast, and then join the discussion in the Seibertron.com fourms.

Episode #0: "The Hundred Dollar Minicon"

Just a heads up, this is our "pilot" episode, so the news is a week or so old. Things will start to normalize next episode

Now what did this week's Twincast's crazed Transformers fans end up talking about this week and how can you join in? The following links will take you to the discussions in our forums regarding the following topics.

To kick start the first Twincast, the recent Transformers: Prime reveals announced at San Diego Comic Con were discussed.
Next up was Counterpunch, and while there was discussion about the Twincast member in the show, we're talking about the exclusive Punch/Counterpunch toy, and it's upcoming 'restock' by the Transformers Collectors' Club.
Following that was talk of the first Downloadable Content for Transformers: War For Cybertron, featuring Touya's expertise!
Is there any doubt about the most anticipated toy for the next upcoming months? Masterpiece Rodimus was the next highlight of the Twincast.
Next up was Masterpiece Rodimus' brethren, the rest of Takara's stunning 2010 Transformers line.
The last two topics in this Twincast will be reoccuring themes, the first is 'This week in Transformers History', and 24 years ago, it just happened to be the release of the controversial 1986 Transformers Animated Movie.
The second is discussing updates to the ever growing toy galleries of Seibertron.com. The six Seibertronians joined in discussing one of the hottest topics this month, FansProject's Crossfire Bruticus Add-ons!

Let's meet the Twincast crew ...

Counterpunch- He's always nearby, real nearby, and he'll be that way every week!
Mkall- The Ragin' Canadian! Wait that's not right ...
Tigertracks24- He's a crotchety old G1er, and we would have him any other way!
Pyrostrata- Her love of Megatron makes Lugnut seem rational!
Skice- You could call him the "Prime" of the Twincast ... yeah Rodimus Prime ...
... and our Special guest this week: Touya- He writes for Tomopop.com, and loves him some Thundercracker!

Just click the links below and enjoy the very first episode of Seiberton.com Twincast!

Good job guys. This was quite entertaining and relatively smooth for episode one. Kepp them coming.

It's also pretty neat to hear voices of the members I talk to pretty regularly. Gonna have to make the trip to Botcon next year to meet everyone.

Great job though :APPLAUSE:

Thanks for the support. This is really a team effort and everyone involved did a great job.

We're set to record again next wednesday and we'll work at getting the time between recording and production reduced as much as possible.

LOL! This is awesome. I can agree with a lot of what they were saying. Regarding the 2010 line...Everyone wants their money!!

Fantastic first episode, fellas. Even if the podcast is outdated by a week or a few days until it gets caught up, I really don't mind so much; it's nice to hear some discussions on things outside the forums :3

Also it is so lonely out here in San Diego and it reminds me of BotCon when I can actually geek out with people. So lonely... ;_;

I had the bright idea of having it playing in the background while reading comics.

Quite distracting. And not in a "ZOMG!!1!! CP's VOICE IS AS SEXY AS HIS FACE11!!!" (because it's not!) way. I actually felt compelled to listen.

Then they started swearing. I had to turn it off. I have sensitive ears.

Glad to see you guys finally decided to take up my suggestion and put a Seibertron podcast together.

Great first episode guys.

A fangirl that hates Starscream?! Where did you find this girl? Next thing you know she's gonna she hates slash too. :roll:

More Pyro, please! Hopefully she's a regular guest.

Liked the opening theme. Not so much the closing... :-?

Yes I hate Starscream. He's a super-tool. It wasn't hard to find me....I have been on Seibertron.com for a little while now....I also hate slash-fiction. I am indeed a rare creature....ask anyone who knows me.

And I am part of the core-crew, so I should be there most weeks...unless work has other plans for me that particular week. Fear not....I ain't goin anywhere!

If it is "SAY-ber-tron"...I'm calling lame on that. Sorry, opinion here, but who here pronounces it in their mind any other way but "SIGH-ber-tron"?

I joined up in 2007 when the pronunciation was posted as a sub-title. I pronounce it Say-bertron just as it's suppose to be.

I pronounce it Saber-tron. As in light saber. As in someone's gonna come along and slice your hand off if you don't.

Are you guys going to take questions from the forum?
