It's My Birthday Today!!!

Today is my birthday (11th August).

No birthday theme picture today because I can't be bothered.

Do you want to know what I got?  ....Too bad, you'll have to put up with it

I got:
G1 Masterpiece Grimlock, Who is AWESOME!!
Movie Deluxe Bumblebee, (Yes, another. But different to the other)
A Computer mouse in the shape of a car
Some Transformers stickers (No Ironhide though, Arcee replaces him)
And £55
Watched Smurfs at the cinema

And the stuff I bought for myself:
Human Alliance Jazz (with Lennox)
DOTM (Dark Of The Moon, The new Transformers Movie) Roadbuster
DOTM Megatron

I know I haven't updated in ages. Well here's some of the things I've done inbetween my last post and this one:
went to Whales for a week
Saw Dark of the Moon on the first showing on the first day while on holiday
went to the Talyllyn Railway (Sir Haydn pulled the train) Also in Whales
went to Portmerion (saw some crabs there, I was happy I saw them for some reason) also in Whales
saw Kung Fu Panda 2 in 3D, First 3D film I've seen.
saw Dark of the Moon, Again, in 3D,  the 3D was a bit off I think
went to Drayton Manor with some friends (AWESOME)
completed Transformers: Decepticons for the DS, it's a really good game
tried playing Team Fortress 2

Dark of the Moon is great. I won't say anything about it because I might spoil something.

My birthday is on 11th of August in case you want to get me anything. 11th of August.

I'll try to do something next post. Maybe a review, I haven't done one of them in ages
Also, if you haven't already, could you look at my sister's blog: Padme's Wanderings. She doesn't update much, but it's good. She's poster about a mug that I made her.

I've Literally (About 10pm) Just been given "The Second QI Book of General Ignorance" from my parents!

I've had a great birthday I think

Can't think of anything witty to say, so.... Bye!

BLOG BIRTHDAY! (May 5th)

It's one today. One year old.
On the subject of birthdays, Here's something I did for my Dad's birthday:

Because everytime I told my Dad about Assassin's Creed II, He'd reply "A Sausage Greed II?", because that's the thing he does, mock me. I made it for his birthday, I put it in a CD case and wrote stuff like "Eat sausages!" and "Over 2 minuites of gameplay!" Also thre was no "A Sausage Greed 1"

May the 4th Be With You

Hi again
Just so you know:
May 4th = Star Wars Day

Star Wars is one of my favorite films. My favorite character from the Original Trilogy is Boba Fett, my favorite characters fron the Newer Trilogy are General Grievous and Kit Fisto.
I do actually have the 3 3/4" figures, I have Anakin, Obi-Wan and yoda behind me right now! (the 3 3/4" figures are more in-scale with Transormers Human Alliance than the tiny figures that come with them) The main reason you don't see me reviewing the Star Wars figures is that they don't really have a gimmick, yes, they do have articulation and some have firing missiles but not really much of a gimmick, I do really like the figures. My favorite creature is the Rancors, Which is why I'm called what I am. I have a Rancor I have named Jerry, he's a cute li'l Rancor! Also I own about a billion Darth Vader items, including a Vader head radio.
Well, in short; I own quite a lot of merchandise.
Here's a Pic I drew of Vader's head, I drew it quite quickly:

 Happy Star Wars day and "May the 4th Be With You"!
May 3rd wasn't my real birthday, a friend let it be my birthday, an "unoficcial" birthday. My real birthday is in August.
再见(It's Goodbye in Chinese)

Episode III: Revenge of the Blog

It's the third day today and I'm posting  a poster thing.

Have you seen a film called "Run fat boy run"? Neither have I. Here's the official poster:

I saw a picture of Ratchet in the same pose, and Ratchet's fat, so...

Now, Spot the Differences between these two pictures!
Put the differences in the comments.
Two more days to go. If you don't know what I'm talking about, come back Wednesday 4th and Thursday 5th.
Bye!
(Also, it's my birthday today. A friend gave it to me after I gave him an extra birthday)

Day the 2nd

Hello again.
I'm posting a picture of a Haynes manual today. Based off the 1986 Transformers movie, Where all of your favorite characters die. Well... except Bumblebee, Jazz, Cliffjumper and a few others. It's a screencap of Megatron turning into Galvatron. You get to see a cross-section of Megatron and I thought it was Haynes-like, and this was made:

Enjoy the picture, and enjoy the references! (If you don't know what the references on this picture are; ask me and I'll put them up in the comments)

Nameless

This is only going to be a short post. On May 5th This blog will be one year old. I think, I can't be bothered to check. I'll try to post a post a day until the 5th and they'll probably be longer than this.

Today I'm posting a picture of Blurr from Transformers Animated. He looks different because this is a design I've thought of myself based on what he might look like if his spark (A spark is kinda like a heart) was recovered from the Blurr-Cube after he was crushed by Shockwave in a compactor in "TransWarped, Part II". I've based him on TFA Blurr and Movie Sideswipe.

Wow! Clear background! Well, except fom a bit under the chin.
Bye.

Doctor Who: The Doctor's Scarf

Haven't posted anything in a while, have I?

Actually, I don't think anyone's looked at my blog in... About 3+ months? (Exept Poppet) (If you do look at my blog, Could you please leave a comment so I know people are looking at my blog? Thanks! Also, Could you look at previous posts if you haven't seen them please?)

A few months ago I had a scarf made for me by a witty little knitter. But it isn't a normal scarf, It's The 4th Doctor's (Played by Tom Baker) scarf. 

I'll show you the scarf:

(This photo was taken not long after it was finished, it's shorter(8 or 9 foot) in this photo, it's been stretched since then) It's about 11 foot long (Not including tassels) (Wow, I'm using a lot of brackets, Aren't I? I'm using too many of them.).

This scarf is from Season 12 of Doctor Who, Tom's has had quite a few scarves over the seven years as The Doctor, About eight, Most of them I think are the same with peices either taken off or two scarves attached together.

This one is the first scarf, seen in episodes "Robot" and "The Sontaran Experiment", It had a Bluey-Grey piece taken off one of the ends in "The Ark in Space" and the rest of season 12.

I want the season 18 scarf next, The red and purple one, but Poppet said "If you want another scarf you're going to have to pay for it yourself!".

I'll put more photos on at a later time.

There's not enough pictures on this post so here's a Blitzwing picture I drew on MS Paint, I drew all the steps but skipped all but first and last.

It didn't take long to draw.

Here's the link to the site where I got the scarf pattern from: www.doctorwhoscarf.com

Could you put in the comments who your favorite Doctor is? You can have more than one if you want.

Goodbye! (I couldn't think of anything witty to put here today!)

Kirby Themed Post (Picture and Comic)

Yeah... That's the best name I can think of. As you can (hopefully) tell by the name, this post is Kirby themed. No, this post isn't dedicated to vacuum cleaners, it's about a little pink creature called Kirby. I got Kirby Super Star Ultra a few weeks ago and it's a good game. Possible spoiler ahead so beware: At the end of Meta Knightmare Ultra (a subgame in Kirby Super Star), Meta Knight wants to become stronger and fights Galacta Knight, a knight who was locked in suspended animation because he was too powerful. And Meta Knight wins. And I drew a picture of it. Meta Knight's the blue one and Galacta Knight has wings.

I drew it with a pencil, coloured the characters with Copics and Promarkers and I used chalk for the background. I'm very happy with the picture, though there are some differences to the game:

1. Meta Knight doesn't have a cape in the game
2. Meta Knight's shoulder guard isn't curved up at the end in the picture

That was one thing, The other is a comic I made using sprites from KSSU, it's only 3 panels, and it's got King Dedede and Fire Lion.

The story was thought up by me and I put the sprites on the backgrounds, but the sprites and backgrounds aren't by me, Fire Lion is ripped by Grim, King Dedede and the backgrounds were ripped by Drshnaps, Both are on Sprite Database. That's all for today, Bye!

Happy MMXI Everyone

Yes it's that time of year (next year?) again, where you can't get any sleep beacause of the fireworks setting off all around. I was going to post what happened 100 years ago but the things I found wasn't anything that I really understood properly. By the way, some useless information you probably didn't want to know; a couple of days ago I acquired a Nintendo DSi XL, which I have been on quite a lot, it can do loads of things. New year's resolution, do they still have those? Does anyone keep the promises? I think mine will be "Buy a Transformer" because I'm obviously going to do that, and one of them's got to be Wheeljack, I really like that guy.

Happy New Year!

Happy Boxing Day! (Bumblebee Review Too)

I think the day after people's Birthdays should be called "Wrestling Day", for no reason other than Boxing Day. 

Do you want to know what I got? Well I'll tell you anyway!:

4x Deluxe Transformers (Ratchet, Ravage, Brawn and Lockdown)
1x Voyager Transformer (Stratosphere, it has a tiny Transforming Optimus Prime)
1x (Noticably Stouter) Book of General Ignorance
4x Boxes of Chocolate (I dislike them more each year)
1x Transformers Game (PS3)
£70+£5+£5+£10=£90
1x Kirby Super Star Ultra (DS, Getting it in a few days)
3x Shirts (Got Today)
2x Shower gel (Always a good sign!)

That's it. The only ones I didn't know I was going to get were the shirts and the Book of General Ignorance.

Deluxe Bumblebee Review

Hope you had a good day yesterday. I promised my next review was going to be Bumblebee so here it be:

Bumblebee is an Autobot scout whowas sent to earth to find the Allspark

 

The main gimmick of this bumblebee is the cannons that are hidden in the front of the car, I forgot to take the picture of the cannons but thanks to the power of Stock Photos I have aquired a picture from the internet:

Here he is next to Sam Witwicky

This Bumblebee doesn't have a number/licence plate like the Human Alliance one

The front:

The doors open, they've even moulded seats:

Just imagine the Transformation noise
Here's the robot mode:

Sam Witwicky comparison
Side and back view

With the cannons:

I'm a bit tired so it might not be as good as the other reviews, they probably could have made the chest transform and wrist articulation, it does have moveable thumbs though so he can hold things.
More pictures of Jaden and Bumblebee

Darn Memes! & Other Randomness

Sorry for the (nearly a month) absence, I was busy (LIES!). I didn't have anything to put up(Truth this time). ......Do you know the meme "OM NOM NOM", if you don't: it's the sound people make when they're eating (apparently), this originated from The Cookie Monster from Sesame Street when eating cookies, also, have you seen the Doctor Who episode Terror of The Autons? With the plastic chair that eats Mr McDermott? And the SUPER SCARY doll? Probably not, but I've wasted 2 minutes, Yes, an entire TWO MINUTES OF MY LIFE to make a picture just so you know I'm still here.

BONUS:

Not only do you get this picture above, you also get another one for FREE! A Doctor Who logo that I made:

Also, Today is Poppet's birthday so I've made a picture:

If you don't know what it is: it's based off a Poirot book cover, specifically "The Labours of Hercules".

Happy Birthday Poppet!

New Comic Preview

Bah-weep-Graaaaagnah wheep ni ni bong.

I am in the planning of a Transformers comic, one that has a storyline.

The robots are mainly based on Generation 1 Transformers, so you might be expecting something like this:

 But the comic is going to be set in Victorian England, as shown in this preview:

Yet again, this isn't it. all I've really done is a rough plot and one character: Jazz:

I might change Jazz's appearence, I'm not sure.
I've thought of a name, "Primus save the Queen"(Primus is like a God to Transfomers), but I don't really think it's a very good name, so I'd like you to think of a name, you can suggest more than one name if you want, there won't be a prize but I will mention the person who thought of the name, I may keep the name "Primus save the Queen" if you're entering remember it's a Transformers comic set in Victorian England. Bye!

Transformers computer drawing: Sunstreaker

Hello, today's post is a picture is of Sunstreaker. Sunstreaker is the twin brother of Sideswipe (Don't worry, I don't know how robots can have brothers either!) they both transform into Lamborghinis. He thinks he's better than everyone and hates his paintwork being scratched. That's why this picture exists:

If you don't know what the picture is about: Sunstreaker has a scratch on his forearm and he's shocked about it. The autobot symbol is off the internet beacause I can't draw good autobot symbols. the next picture is a mix between a preview and just for fun:

I call the cat Jaden after the main character from Jedi Academy and you probably know who the little yellow fellow is, if you don't, I'll leave you waiting. cwowo rooohu whwokao aoahscwo!(No, I didn't sneeze, it's shyriiwook for "see you next time". Bye!)

Decepticon Starscream Card

How long ago was it since I last posted? 3 weeks of something I think. Anyway... This is a card I made with Starscream from Transformers, the second in command to Megatron on Earth (The real second in command to Megatron is Shockwave, who is on Cybertron), he is also the leader of the seekers: Starscream(The one in the photo, White and Orange), Thundercracker(Blue) and Skywarp(Black and Purple).

The picture of Starscream is one I've drawn myself that was originally Sunstorm (They're identical in shape but I wrote Sunstorm under) that I coloured in, the Decepticon logo background I found on the internet and cut out on a Craft Robo (Not a Transformer!) so I had to make an outline, The "DECEPTICON STARSCREAM" on the sides I based the text on the box of Leader Jetfire (Which I shall be reviewing later) that just said "MECH ALIVE" so I made the design of some of the letters.

I'm entering this card into Lothian Crafts Challenge #5 "For A Man" Because people who grew up in the 80s have probably seen Transformers and might remember Starscream

Transformers comic: All that Jazz

I've decided to make a short comic about Me and my sister's favourite character: Jazz. Optimus Prime and Wheeljack are also in the comic. The place where this comic is based is the Ark, the ship that the Autobots used to search for Energon, the Ark crashed in the side of a volcano in the desert. I've called the comic "All that Jazz"

I've put what could be called an easter egg related to Transformers 2.

Also, the background's supposed to be orange but its scanned it yellow.

This is the first comic I've made and I'm very happy with it.

Omega Supreme Picture

Hello, this isn't a computer drawing this time, this is one I drew by hand and coloured with pens.
Omega Supreme may be the biggest known autobot and he is part of the Guardian robots.
He also talks differently e.g."Power: Optimal. Mission: Destroy Megatron."(War for Cybertron). the next few he doesn't actually say, someone's made these up: "Favorite punctuation mark: colon." "Storytime: informative." "Characteristic speech pattern: averted.".
Anyway, Here's the Picture:

Not exactly cartoon accurate but i think it's a good picture.

Transformers Leader Optimus Prime Review

Its been quite a long time since I last posted. This time it's another review of the leader of the Autobots, Optimus Prime, This one's very different to the voyager class one I reviewed before, a lot bigger too. This Optimus Prime can combine with Leader class Jetfire.

Vehicle mode is very detailed and accurate to a Peterbilt 379, which Optimus Prime's vehicle mode is.

Photos of different sides:

Photo above has Sam Witwicky from the Human Alliance Bumblebee because Sam is actually more in scale with Optimus Prime than the Human Alliance Robots

Optimus's vehicle mode makes engine noises by pressing a button on the back of the vehicle.

Still, no transformation, straight to robot mode!

Robot mode. Optimus is very tall in this mode, He's the tallest Transformer I have, bigger than Superion (Who I should be reviewing sometime). He is also very detailed in Robot mode.

To show how big he is in robot mode, Human Alliance Sam is in the photo below

Photo's of the side and back:

Optimus also has the blades as seen in the movie

He has a Cybertronian glyph on the blades

Optimus Prime's head:

When abutton is pushed on Prime's chest, his eyes and chest light up, his eyes light up green on the figure but in the movie his eyes are blue. I've took the batteries out so don't bother looking for the lights on the photo

The gears in Optimus's windows move too

I've read that this Optimus Prime is hard to transform but if you are considering buying it for anyone don't let the difficulty put you off, its not as hard as they say it is, the instructions aren't very helpful but if you need help Youtube has lots of videos on how to transform Optimus from vehicle to robot and back. That's My review for Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Leader Class Optimus Prime

TFA Drawing: Starscream & Seekers

Amazing, 2 posts in 1 day. This time it's Transformers Animated Starscream and his clones. I'm listing the names and what part of Starscream's personality they have. The uncoloured ones aren't listed. Right to left:

• Starscream (All)
• Thundercracker (Egomaniac)
• Skywarp (Coward)
• Ramjet (Liar)
• Ramjet with helmet
• Sunstorm (Suck-up)
• Sunstorm with helmet
• Slipstream (Unknown)

Again,please put in the comments which is your favourite one. Next picture is probably Wreck-Gar.

TFA Drawing: Blitzwing

A new post after a few weeks, but it's not a review today (Even though I've only done 2 reviews so far).
This time it's a Ms Paint Drawing. A drawing of Transformers Animated Blitzwing, the German accented Triple Changer with 3 different personalities: Calm, Angry and Crazy. He may be my favourite Transformer in Animated. I got the idea to draw it because my Sister (You may see me mention her in other posts) Showed me a picture of Blitzwing that someone drew, so I decided to draw my own Blitzwing.

Here are the three heads of Blitzwing, uncoloured first, then coloured: Calm, Crazy and Angry in that order:

The only non-default colour that i used is Angry's face. Please put in the comments which is your favourite head.

Transformers Human Alliance Bumblebee Review

Today I'm going to do a review on Human Alliance Bumblebee. He's Voyager sized and transforms into a Chevrolet Camaro

The human (Sam Witwicky) can sit in the drivers seat or the passenger seat

Bumblebee has the Chevrolet logo on the front, but the Autobot logo is nowhere in his alt mode

The number plate on the back has "4NZZZ454" on it, the Zs are probably a joke on Bumblebee's name. This photo's a bit blurry

Again, no tranformation so it's robot mode
Bumblebee is very big (obviously) next to Sam. He's not movie accurate but he's still a great figure. The seats make his forearm guards.

Bb's back, has the whole top of the car on it

Now, the weapons
Probably the most obvious weapon is the cannon arm which fires missiles.

He has a battle mask that drops down over his face

A double barreled cannon over his head

A chaingun on his shoulder which a Human character can fit in. Blurry again

An overhead cannon that a human character can fit in on Bb's left arm

Also, you can fit Sam on the cannon arm but it's a bit pointless because there is no human interaction with it

Now the front and back of Sam Witwicky. He has shoulder articulation, waist, top of leg, knee and neck articulation

 

 

That's my review for Human Alliance Bumblebee and Sam Witwicky. There's two things I think they could do to make it better: A right hand so you can change from cannon to hand and back and a more realistic colour car seats.
