Transformers fandom...

Come on. I know Spark seems like a weird name to have, considering the whole 'life force' thing, but do keep in mind "spark" has other meanings and, perhaps more importantly, that sparks didn't exist in canon until Beast Wars retconned them into existence in 1996. (That said, if you're just having fun with it, knock yourselves out.)



I am ridiculously glad the BotCon set is G2-themed and hope it continues to include characters I don't especially care about in paint schemes I find hilariously painful. ... OKAY SO THAT SECOND PART IS KIND OF A GIVEN. Still.






ALSO, KINDA LATE, BUT it's free cone day at Ben & Jerry's! Get to a scoop shop before 8 pm!

I totally agree. Mind, I wasn't planning on attending anyways (Florida in July? No thanks, I'd rather not melt), but I was debating on getting the toys. Now that I know it's G2 themed, I can save that money for something else.

I've never been big on day-glo colours and you can be sure that all the rest of the toys will look like fluorescent Lego Tonka Toys. I won't say that G2 ruined the franchise forever, but I can happily pretend that it never happened.

So just checking wasn't that character named before sparks existed really? I didn't click on all the links cause I fear the pain. But yeah can't we retcon him into nonexistence? Or better yet take it that he is also known as "soul" thats is guys really 9_9

BTW For me TF begins and End with the Beast Wars/Beast Machines ere, series, time of awesome? Maybe thats odd but yea 6_6
