Transformers: Of Dubs and Tanks
a year ago
General
A double whammy featuring duo lingo and double alts. XD
Great intro XD
Anyhoo, came across the'86 Transformers movie's Japanese dub a couple days ago. You can catch it on Youtube still: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLUpS8QPOXE And now you can enjoy the already traumatic experience of Brawn, Prowl, Ratchet and Ironhide's demises with newly added death screams! XD Jokes aside, the dub provides more added dialogue for chars who got very little dialogue; sounds that should've been there to begin with. And frankly with the fan subs it really makes the dialogue feel more natural, and not like the chars didn't read the script early on XD And I like the changes; from Springer's famous line, to Ultra Magnus' infamous line. You know which ones I'm talking about.
And from that segue into the second part of this here journal, if you're a Transformers toy collector, and are absolutely hyped for Studio Series '86 Optimus Prime, like me, then we all know about SS'86 Megatron a-comin' next year. And of course, they bitch-babies are in a tussy cuz this version of Megs is confirmed to be a tank instead of his traditional, classic gun alt mode.
Guys... why did you think Megatron was EVER gonna be a gun? The gun laws, and marketing, and everything in between all that, and we all know this. C'mon, y'all, Megatron being a gun was never gonna happen.
'BUT IT'S HI ORIGINAL ALT MODE! IT'S NOSTALGIC!' Who gives a crap?! Megatron turning into a gun should've never happened in the first place. Especially when he ends up mostly in Starscream's hands. Need I remind everybody of Screamy's treachery? Hell, he could've dealt with Megs so many different times in his gun mode, it's crazy.
'THEN TANK MEGATRON SHOULDN'T EVEN BE IN SUTDIO SIERES '86!!!' Primus, there is no point trying to please these whiny babies! Go jerk off to the masterpiece version if you're gonna be this pissy.
Tho I don't mind Earthrise Megatron (the dramatic capture toy is much better, and I do plan on getting the Optimus version of that) I do hope they do a good job with this upcoming toy. Who knows, maybe they'll make an accessory of gun mode Megs for other toys to hold.
Till then, I'm waiting patiently for the new toys this Fall. ^^
Thanks for your time.

I still like my cel-shaded Siege Megs though. With a hover tank alt-mode, I can always pretend that hovering operates on the same principles as hovering in Back to the Future (Just straight up flying lol)
I'm STILL waiting for a SS'86 Astrotrain, cuz boy, mah boy needs an upgrade
