hey....this might be against several rules to bring this up in a Transformer thread...but did anyone play with M.A.S.K. toys?

I remember them being pretty popular in Germany.

Germany??? I didmt know that. I use to have a lot of M.A.S.K toys. Favorite was Rhino I think it was called. Was a big Rig driven by a Japenese dude. He had this cool anti-gravity mask. I use to laugh when he would yell "Lifter on!!!!!". I think my mom still has all of mine. Are they worth anything?? She has all my old transformers too including my Dinobots.

Galvatron was definitely more evil than Megatron. He didn't give a rat's ass how loyal you were.

Hail Galvatron!

so why is dane cook listed on imdb?

7/17/2006 11:57:11 AM

Maybe because he's had a fairly extensive acting career and is the executive producer of the HBO Original Series "Tourgasm."

7/17/2006 12:24:44 PM

yeah but he'll be in transformers? wtf

7/17/2006 12:58:08 PM

i can't say i have too much hope for this film

that said, bumblebee looks pretty cool

[Edited on August 19, 2006 at 3:06 PM. Reason : ^after looking at those pictures i have a bit more faith in what they did to prime]

8/19/2006 3:05:22 PM

they anime'd up the transformers

8/20/2006 10:30:18 AM

ok, when I first saw bumblebee I thought it looked cool, but then when I saw Prime I got sad. What have they done to him? he had such an awesome simplicity about him, and still looked so unique. now he just looks like something from Neon Genesis Evangelion or something.

8/20/2006 1:37:18 PM

i don't like what happened to bumblebee

8/20/2006 2:02:28 PM

like I said, they fucking anime'd up all this shit to make it appeal to all these freaks.

8/20/2006 3:57:03 PM

i'm pretty much ok with how they look, though i would like them to be more distinctive from one another and still dont know about that flame job

i still think the director is going to fuck this movie all up though

8/20/2006 4:05:04 PM

Call me close-minded and nostalgic, but I think I prefer the G1 look of their robot forms better than what they've got for this movie. I can deal with Prime's truck mode's new paint job, but at least make his robot form actually look like it converts into a truck.

Hey now, you can't knock on NGE. I :heart: that series.

8/20/2006 4:14:11 PM

all of my faith in a property's ability to survive a director went out the window when i saw ratner's x3

ps, is bumblebee a .....camaro?

[Edited on August 20, 2006 at 11:45 PM. Reason : ....]

8/20/2006 11:44:18 PM

Bumblebee is indeed a Camaro. WTF.

Someone said that these designs remind them exceptionally of Lego Bionicles, and I have to agree. I could not be any more disappointed now that I've seen these. I still hold out hope that it's some massive hoax.

I can understand the need to use bigger cars because these robots are REAL. They are really making them and there are limitations in designs that require large cars... but bumble is a small ass beetle.. he isn't a fucking camero. He was slow as crap most of the time.

I mean if you're going to make someone a camaro make it blurr. That dood was spastic as hell. Probably broke down as much as a camaro (hehe).

Eh, the flames kinda look retarded to go with the WWE/Redneck view to attact them. The director is working with the concept that he wants to stay as pure as possible while attracting as many people as possible. This way he gets picked up for a sequel. I'll give him some leeway but I hope he doesn't destroy it like Mario Brothers... jesus christ that was a piece of trash.

8/23/2006 9:58:20 AM

if you guys think these designs are bad, wait til you see Starscream:



granted, that's a toy prototype and could be completely made up, but the way things are going its safe to peg as legit.

Movie looking kinda like all other sort of "remakes" . . . gonna try to be slightly true to the fans, but ultimately jazz it up so all the teeny boppers eat it up.

That being said, I still have high hopes for:

lame. super fucking lame.

9/7/2006 11:52:32 AM

The old ones rule over these latest incarnations. It's like the designers have this "the more complicated the better" mindset. Keep it simple.

9/7/2006 12:08:55 PM

I think they're trying to make it more "realistic", and in the process, they're shatting on our childhood memories.
