/co/ at times back then was legitimately a real fun place for tf stuff. It's kind hard sometimes going through my archives finding stuff that would land today though. They used to have transformers generals and at times it was great. I even have buried some info about one really old spammer who would go on about Beast Wars and /co/ had huge infographics warning people about how messed up he was.

Feels.
If you so please, could you DM me some large quantities of any cute TF art when you have time? It's always pleasant seeing them pop up in the thread. :)

I kept my word and drew some TF boys and girls with desserts. Gimme stickers now validate your supreme leader

Windcharger: "Can we get ON WITH THIS?!"
Huffer: "Digital pictures?! It'll never work! I'm trying to tell ya-"
Brawn: "Stifle it Huffer, or I'm going to make your eye sockets blue too!"
*Bumblebee shows up last*
Gears: "You're late again."

*Skywarp begins doing bunny ears on Buzzsaw and Soundwave before a scuffle breaks out*
Starscream: "Where are all our soldiers, might Megatron? Didn't we have a lot more than this when we landed on Earth?"
Megatron: "You can silence yourself before your presence in this image becomes a ghost video for Halloween!"

If anyone wanna add...
Elita One behind the camera, hoping Optimus actually polished his windows before this.

Skyfire getting a bit nervous with all these little bots around him. He dosen't want to step on anyone.

Chromia is also behind the camera, having a screaming match with Ironhide about him not smiling.

Bumblebee's mouth is stuck as a smile.

I nabbed a mis-priced TF One Blokees lot. Some idiot at Walmart priced a whole sale box at 20 bucks. Now who am I to question the authority of pricing? Scummy I suppose, but they clearly didn't hire the most diligent of workers for the toy area. I'm currently on lookout for some Prime line figures that aren't being scalped to hell and back. For now I think I'm going to take it easy until Christmas passes. The Screamlings are gonna love their stocking stuffers though. Rescue Bots Academy was not as much of a hit as the original. They didn't understand why the voices were different (cheapskate assholes in corporate are the reason)

My biggest unsorted and partially sorted folder is over 28 gigs. NO.
AND YOU WANT ME TO GIVE THINGS AWAY FOR FREE WITHOUT ANY ENERGON-RATINGS!? [see video above} DON'T MAKE ME CALL THE CONSTRUCTICONS TO HAVE YOU REFABRICATED INTO A CHILD'S OUTDOOR JUNGLE GYM! YOU CAN SPEND THE REST OF YOUR LIFE IN THE RAIN AND THE ARIZONA SUN WITH MESSY CHILDREN SLIDING DOWN THE SLIDE MADE OUT OF YOUR FACE!
 
did Mazinger vs Transformers ever get translated?
 
For the presumably 2 people that care, it seems that Outright games will be losing the license for Transformers, as a Steam curator i was following posted a message saying that Transformers Battlegrounds would be Delisted before january 1st 2026. I don't know if their other 2 games will be plunged into the abyss of vaporware, but here are some images

On one hand, i'm not going to weep over shovelware being transported to oblivion. On the other, Hasbro's incredibly stingy deathgrip on the Franchise isn't going to ensure its success and it would be nice if these corporate assholes could at least allow old Transformers games to exist at the same time with another company or two holding the license for making games. Still, it's interesting to see that this happened so soon for Outright Games, i guess their products really weren't selling well and if anything, only devalued the brand from a visual standpoint, since people would now associate Transformers with cornercutting and being cheap(well that's not entirely untrue, but you can only get so far by doing that.) To veer from this subject, since it's blackfriday, i decided to get the Spinister and Topspin double pack and Cybertron Sideways. I've seen some people complain about Spinister being the Marvel version, but i'm actually glad they went with this iteration for the character, Spinister is another character where i detest the IDW version
 
I used to have a huge collection of early internet Transformers stuff. Much of it has been lost in various computer crashes, but is there any interest in this kind of thing anymore? I still have some .ico and .midi files.
This was one of my favorite Transformers sites back in the day, Transformers Icon of the Day. I have most of these and there are some additional palette-swaps of those files here.

I bought Battlegrounds used for cheap and was shocked at how overcomplicated and unfun it was.

I don't even think a tactical strategy game is bad for Transformers, there's a lot you can do with that sort of game, given how many stories have been written and the abundance of Transformers characters. Of course Hasbro gives out the supposed multi-billion dollar value franchise to one of the cheapiest companies they could find and then hilariously enough pulls the rug under them and doesn't even allow outrightgames to sell their low-effort shovelware. Hasbro will probably cope and say "well we tried and there just isn't the market for it" when they haven't even devoted a fraction of resources and time. Also these games got next to no advertising compared to the old Activision games, appearing as if every person involved has no fate in the project they're creating which is rather depressing
