That chair is honestly my favourite TF toy product of the last year. -Ralph I know he's a very busy chap, but I have had a recent urge to request Blueshift does us a 2022 hub badge with the chair on it. To celebrate the excellence of the chair and also to maintain the hub tradition of immortalising our annual fixations in pin badge fashion.

Well the last badge was of The Bench so The Chair would be a logical follow-up.

I don't think I got a Bench badge.

This has made me realise my Badge Museum thread is out of date as it doesn't have 2021 in it yet, but I'm almost surprised to find even through the ravages of covid that we have had a badge every year for the last six. 2022 must not go unbadged! We must persuade Blue to include a 2022 Hub 'the chair' badge with his secret Christmas figure!

Does anyone have any theories about how human arms fit/function within Spike and Daniel's Exo-suits?
Every time I see those designs (and the SS86 line has brought them back into my brain) I wonder about this more than anything else in the world.
Because wouldn't they basically have to perpetually keep their arms elevated and near parallel to the ground while bent at the elbow?
It's likely they would often internally rotate their shoulder joint and sustain rotator cuff injuries in the long run.
Unless the assumption is that they use these in space where zero gravity means there are no adverse forces working on their joints and keeping your arms up and bent like that is sensationless and painless?
But in the movie and cartoons they use these in gravity heavy environments, so wouldn't they be in extreme pain?

I'm still annoyed by how shite Core Ratchet was.

Ironhide is as much an improvement over the ER mold, as the ER Datsun mold is over the Siege Datsun mold.
He's not without flaws, but they pale compared to the flaws in the four or five previous Ironhide updates.

But but but, ER is pretty cool though, right chap? Like, 'close enough' kinda thing. SS can't be all that much better, right chap?
Your comparison of Siege and ER Prowl is quite haunting, chap; and I don't thank you. Not at all.

It doesn't look all that different, but when you have it in hand, oh my. It's about as perfect as a Generations toy is going to get, I think. And no roof shield!
