LIVE NOW ON TWITCH! For some bizzare reason, the multicast thing (which worked perfectly yesterday) failed miserably today. So I'll ONLY BE STREAMING ON TWITCH! HEAD ON OVER NOW!

Don't forget, tomorrow Dr Streamdown returns with a brand new Transformers Devastation stream. I actually got it working this time! Somehow! Find me on Twitch for a whole new streaming chapter.

Watching this at the Hasbro fan screening was also something else. The vibe went from "oh shit look at the background it's so and so and this guy" to "oh...oh it's this kind of film".

Got "tip-m'lady'd" yesterday at work. Unsure how to feel about it.

How small can you go? How compact can you make things. Can things even remain that fun? Many folks have taken to criticising the jank of this release...but I can't help but feel they're missing the entire point. Review #196: Dr Wu Cyber Hercules (Devastator) - OUT NOW! youtu.be/sX1rH8Vz3T0

If not, sorry. Unless I have a craving to write about something specific, just not going to prioritise it. We'll see. Catch y'all on the other side. Side note, day light savings can go die in a hole. I needed that extra hour of sleep. Its now 3am. How dare you.

0120

I'm willing to give the Iron Factory Outback review the benefit of the doubt (old figure, 4th of July, character few care about). So we'll see how this one goes. If it does well, I'll carve out time for more Legends stuff.

Finally finished the last pass on Dr Wu Devastator. Should go live in five hours. A quick note; how this video does will determine whether I do more Legends stuff throughout the year, instead of just in December. I want to do more, but I'm just not sure there's an audience.

Still working on the final pass of Dr Wu Devastator, but in the meantime, here's what's going down next week. The first Preview Gallery for Episode 197 is up, covering RID2001 Tow Line. Yep. The OG. The GOAT. Getting this done early because it needs approval first www.patreon.com/drlockdown/p...

Early Access is up for the Dr Wu Devastator review. Wasn't able to do the final graphics; had a work emergency to attend to today and couldn't do the final pass, but it'll be done for Sunday's upload with no issues whatsoever. For now, enjoy. www.patreon.com/drlockdown/p...

I'm actually a little mad I went in on blackout after seeing this. But ah well. Blackout means more to me, being my first transformer ever. I will deffo be double dipping if blackout is good.

Are you kidding me. I just finished the Legacy Retrospective special. Are you actually kidding me. I thought I had a couple more years at least. Are you KIDDING ME.

Wild king W cobaltwing. Not getting reviewed.

Going to be finishing the editing on Dr Wu Devastator and filming another review in tandem tomorrow. Schedule kinda calls for it, so I may be cutting it close on both, but both need doing. Glad I took an extra week on Devy. its a BEEFY video.

Been off dealing with family stuff, but I've got some great news. Firstly, a big (not really) annual project is coming back, and is now about 80% filmed. Secondly. In a word. Thrash's sister. Whatever could that mean? Hmmm.

I already messaged Cam on DM on the other site, but responding here would also be cool.

...how the fu- Five years...and you bring it back...after all this time...you madman...

160

...EYO WHAT?! Could you...maybe...scan them if possible?

140

I appreciate it, and thank you. Good luck. I've tried for about five years and had no luck.

Doubt it. The problem is the stickers come in the magazine, which everyone just throws out. The toy doesn't come with any stickers themselves, so unless they've already been applied, you're SOL. My idea is to track down the key art the stickers are based on and just recreate that.

130

Mine doesn't have the stickers either. Legitimately been thinking about remaking the stickers from scratch, but I have no idea where I'd source the artwork from.

140

I need overload like three weeks ago after how amazing this did.

I...can't remember I'm afraid.

I do not. Not that into it TBH.

My honey bought a 3D printer. We tested it on a random legends Optimus prime I found on one of the file websites (it's on hir computer, not mine, so I don't have the link). I kinda wanna print more legends stuff now. Might buy some filament to use.

I'm trans because the teams in the transformers reviewer space needed to be autobalanced.

Finally finished filming Dr Wu Devastator last night, so here's the last Preview Gallery. Gonna be a big one. Stay tuned. www.patreon.com/drlockdown/p...

The worst rated OVA in the history of the internet? Across multiple websites? I mean, it can't be that bad, right? What's an Idea Factory again? A brand new episode of OVA hell is out now, covering...Skelter Heaven...oh dear... youtu.be/Bo5qjECve5Y

I started writing a diagnosis insanity, but I quickly realised it was going to take a whole lot more research and going back further to ten different forms of older media, so...maybe I'll just take my time and come back to that idea next year.

As a heads up, if you find it easier to keep up to date with updates and personal posts on Reddit, I'm going to start posting on my personal Reddit account as well. You can check the Linktree for more info, if you'd like. Up to you.

US defaultism got me annoyed today. Y'all know you're the only ones who use month/day/year, right? Everyone else goes shortest to longest timeframe. And I'm not American. Nobody's even stopped to think about what the announcement could be and instead laughed at the formatting.

Well I got the ceiling fixed now, soooo...

Definitely warming up to Liokaiser, but he's still a little bit underwhelming IMO. Still unsure on my rankings, but he's definitely above Victory Saber, which is a plus. Still wish they'd done him more like SS86 Devastator. The legs feel the most undercooked.

...it's the same thing when something is inaccurate. If it's awesome, why should it matter? "Oh but it should look like the show so one star". Or maybe...a good toy is a good toy?

Does this count as an addiction? Whenever I have eggs, I seem to just make poached each time, mostly because muscle memory. And I get picky when I eat poached eggs out for the same reason, because I can just make them at home. I can stop whenever I want.
