I appreciate the vigilant reverting Rosh-- but that was me. I'm trying something structural, and I was white-screening when logged in while trying to edit this page. -Derik 11:44, 1 June 2009 (EDT)

Fair enough. It was just an IP that I couldn't track to any known editor, and the template was broken at the time.--RosicrucianTalk 11:52, 1 June 2009 (EDT)
Yeah, I figured out the moment I saw the reversion- "damn, I should have made a memo comment."
If you haven't been so quick-on-the-draw, you presumably would have noticed the associated edits were me-logged-in... but you actually beat me to them. *sob*
Curse your efficiency! -Derik 12:00, 1 June 2009 (EDT)
Y'know, you can log out, load the edit page, and then log back in before you save the edit. :) --abates 15:56, 1 June 2009 (EDT)

Rise of the Chevy Autobots

Is there any more to come on that, or did Monzo get everything? --abates 20:06, 4 August 2009 (EDT)

Micron Legned

AnimeJunkies and Planetary Defense Subtitling Group only subbed one episode each, that of ep 1 and 14 respectively. --Lonegamer78 04:38, 28 September 2009 (EDT)

Hot Rod Go Kart

Seriously. That thing ought to be high on the list. -hx 23:16, 23 February 2010 (EST)

Word. --Detour 23:29, 23 February 2010 (EST)

Our best bet to finding out about the hot rod go-kart is to send a letter to hasbro or get in touch with them. Chances are, the go-karts owner lost interest in transformers as they grew up, and either (a sold it to another unsuspecting child or (b has it in a storage shed, collecting dust. If we could get in touch with anyone at hasbro or even former employees, we might be able to find something out.YourBestPal (talk) 19:21, 13 May 2018 (EDT)

Expo '86

So in an interview I did with Paul Davids, he says that he wrote the script for a Transformers presentation at a World's Fair. The closest World's Fair in proximity to Davids working on the series was Expo '86; my research has further turned up that Hasbro was the largest corporate sponsor of Expo '86, and that families touring the Expo Center at a media event were greeted by "their favorite costumed characters" who handed out various Hasbro toys, including Scrapper.

And that's all I know of it, so I thought I'd toss it up. --Monzo 04:00, 24 February 2010 (EST)

Dammit! I was AT Expo 86! Too bad it was before my first birthday... I'll ask my parents and see if they remember anything about that. -- Semysane 05:18, 24 February 2010 (EST)
On a similar note, if we can get any more info about the Universal Studios Base Camp, that'd be nice. -hx 08:48, 24 February 2010 (EST)
Geez... I wish I could remember Expo '86 better. I do remember there being a big outdoor setup under a tent where they had a bunch of Transformers toys for sale. I was able to get some Aerialbots there back when they were the newest thing. I really doubt my parents would have taken a picture of it, but I can check. Evan1975 (talk) 22:51, 22 March 2018 (EDT)

Ive been digging around online, and the only things I know are that there were mascot suits of Starscream, and presumably Jazz and Grimlock. I say that because the starscream costume looks identical to the one used at the universal studios transformers event in 1985, and they had grimlock and Jazz.YourBestPal (talk) 18:46, 13 May 2018 (EDT)

Animorphs Jake/Stingray and Taxxon/Alien auctions

Monzo pointed me to this link. I've asked the guy for scans of the cardback, but if anyone feels like dropping $200 on these for wiking... --FortMax 14:12, 28 December 2010 (EST)

Jason Jansen

I love how Jason Jansen is a rare item we hope someone might have. --Andrusi 09:36, 24 June 2011 (EDT)

Optimus vs. Malignus cardart

Is this what you're looking for? I found it in a TFW2005 thread about rare Transformers. If any of you have found it already, then sorry... ShootingStar7X (talk) 08:23, 23 January 2018 (EST)

Beast Wars Reborn

I'm confused by this being listed, as there are pages for three of the four. Should it just say we need The Extraordinary Reformat, or is it just saying that we need the Japanese text?--Oshenwave (talk) 17:52, 2 September 2020 (EDT)

Didn't Karyuudo Fansubs translate the fourth part of this story recently? And I'm pretty sure the first three parts had translations posted on Unicron.com or something too. Fanofcoolstuff27 (talk) 20:22, 19 November 2020 (EST)

Kiss Players Radio Translations

So with Karyuudo subs having translated the Kiss Players radio plays (https://karyuudofansubs.blogspot.com/2022/07/release-transformers-kiss-players.html), we're good to remove that from the list, right? AkibaSilver (talk) 09:05, 20 July 2022 (EDT)

No, we're still missing year 2. Escargon (talk) 09:25, 20 July 2022 (EDT)

Whoever made "Invasion Galactica"

The Hot Rod go-kart may never have existed, but we know a bunch of Estrela toys got repackaged by unknown parties as "Invasion Galactica". Was any legitimate license-holder involved?

I'd say this is a mystery worth acknowledging up-front. --Thylacine 2000 (talk) 16:54, 4 November 2022 (EDT)
