#and the strikers poster; that was neat

Morty was really nice.

The second he gets his microphone back, he creates a starring role for Luigi on the spot (as a mix of inspiration and appreciation for Luigi's star potential? Man's got a good eye)

And y'know, I think if Weegee hadn't been scared out of his mind, facing down real, actual fire, and been given actual direction/a better idea of what was going on, I think he'd be ecstatic to be in a monster movie as a monster

Dream come true right buddy?

I hope Morty gives him a copy of that movie. (Also really really nice I don't have to capture him for E. Gadd)

Polterkitty on the other hand...

Such a cool as heck ghost, in both forms, but man. Is it kicking my butt. I've managed one tail so far but oof. This. Is gonna take me awhile...

New York Comic Con 2018 is here! It’s early yet, but already there are some pretty neat reveals courtesy of TFU.info and TFwiki.net, as well as @callykarishokka!

Cyberverse is kicking into high gear with a slew of new product — One-Step Changers who now have accessories, and new Legion and Warrior class figures. Characters featured in these price points include Shadow Striker, Soundwave, Optimus Prime, Hot Rod, Ratchet, Wheeljack, and Prowl!

Pictures from TFU.info:

  The Bumblebee movie figures are seeing a bunch of new Energon Igniters — Shatter gets one for each vehicle mode! More than that, we also get what seems to be our first Bumblebee movie Blitzwing figure!

Pictures from TFWiki:

Finally, on the Siege side of things, two new posters feature the classic “instruments of destruction” themselves: Megatron and his Decepticon crew! Shockwave, Soundwave, Ravage, (maybe) Laserbeak, and two of the first three Seekers (where’s Skywarp?)!

But stealing the show is the suspiciously familiar form that has been converted into the Decepticon leader’s throne… could this Guardian robot herald the coming of the next Titan Class figure?

things i’ve noticed while drawing The Butcher Gang:

Striker is extremely easy to make emote; two eyes, two mouths, three hands--even warped and mismatched, these make it REALLY easy to emote and show good body language, to the point where it’s hard to make it look like a proper mindless monster. Edgar’s contrast with the other two gang members provides the more interest than his design itself.

Fisher’s easiest for straight up fun posing and wacky ideas; that dangling head opens up a TON of options and that alone grants it a ton of intrigue, though his frozen mouth and lack of eyes take away a little. Barley’s design is... I can tell stuff about his personality, but his concept is sort of dull? He’s just a dude. A scrappy sailor dude? Okay. Seen it, but sure.

Piper’s missing a hand and a leg, his other hand is usually occupied by his titular weapon, and he’s missing both eyes. This thing is built to look like a vacant ink zombie, like nothing’s going on in that weird bald head. Meanwhile Charley’s design immediately conveys personality based all on his pose, outfit, and positioning in the poster, giving me a very solid picture on his role and character.

Obviously this is all just my take on it in my recent feeling them out, but I’ve found it really interesting how things sort of invert from Toon to Monster forms. Neat stuff goin on here.
