Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast #252 "Ratcheting Expectations"

The Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast begins episode 252 with speculation and discussion of the latest Transformers rumors which concern a possible expansion of the Generations Studio Series lineup to include characters from the 1986 Transformers movie instead of just those from the Michael Bay universe of live action Transformers films. After that, Movie discussions continue as the latest upcoming entry into the Movie Masterpiece series has been officially revealed in the form of MPM-11 Ratchet. Generations toys tied in with the still upcoming Netflix animated series have become easier to find for collectors as of late, so the cast takes time to reflect on the first wave of output for these Walmart exclusive offerings. Two listener questions come up next, starting with an impromptu look at the Transformers: Alternity line of robots in disguise that convert into 1:32 scale real life vehicles. The second question has the podcasters reflect on times when close friends influenced their collecting habits. Off the cuff remarks about "Holy Grails" in the hobby round out the talk before the episode concludes with the recurring "Bragging Rights" segment where the participants share their latest Transformers product acquisitions.
