Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast #182 "Great Expectations"

Listen in to Episode 182 of the Seibertron.com Twincast Podcast, as the team discusses the recent release of SDCC Exclusives on HasbroToyShop. Next, they dig into recent reveals from Takara Tomy in both the Masterpiece and Legends lines, discussing the Masterpiece release schedule and Targetmaster Hot Rod, as well as Overlord, the Autobot Clones, Blitzwing, and his adorable black and silver elephant. Then, the discussion circles around to the recent Hasbro Movie Masterpiece Optimus Prime, and with the cast finding this to be a surprisingly lackluster release. This spurns talk about the history of premium presentation packaging for Transformers, finding some great examples from a plethora of past releases. Talk moves to a recap of IDW Publishing's First Strike Issue 1 and the end to the regular run of Till All Are One with Issue 12. During the segment, focus moves to the current state of affairs in the IDW Hasbro Universe, IDW release schedules, and more. The show closes out with on-the-fly Game of Thrones spoilers and the recurring "Bragging Rights" segment.
