Merry Christmas, everyone!!
This video was a killer on the last day. I did a bit of procrastinating during the week (thanks again, Modern Warfare 2) and I was up until 1am editing this Bad Larry.
I hope you all enjoy it! God Bless!

SPP Stop Motion Re-Upload- 20th Anniversary Optimus Prime
So, I get an e-mail from Youtube telling me that the above video has become popular, and they want to start making money off of it with the Partner Program. Of course, God forbid I get to be a real Partner, this version is just getting ads on the video they choose.
However, if it's rejected, the video gets deleted, wonderfully deleting your most popular video, and ruining all of that hard work. So, eager to finally start making some money, I went for it, they gave their usual copyright warnings, but I continued on, because I thought of all the blatantly infringing material that so many of their other Partners have, and thought that I just be fine.
But, guess what happened? I was greeted with the utmost hypocrisy of YouTube, and my most popular video by far was deleted. (For the music, of course.)
You know, I could try to lead a revolution, threatening to boycott YouTube, or never click on ads and clog up their servers, but I wont bother. Because whenever someone does that, all that ever happens is people just get really bitchy for a while, but everyone's too much of a lazy, indifferent prick to actually contribute to the cause in any way, so it's a waste of time.
I, of course, have re-uploaded the video, and posted all of the stats of the previous video:
Originally uploaded: December 26, 2007
View count before removal: 174,715
Comment count before removal: 60 (All Positive, of course)
Average rating: 4.5 Stars
I will close by saying that I can't wait until I'm an actual Partner (which WILL happen), and I will be sheltered under YouTube's hypocritical wings, being able to get away with more because I'm making them money.

RotF Toy Haul- Week 1
So, this week I got Leader Class Optimus Prime and Sideswipe. Reviews of each of them should be up sometime during the week. These toys are amazing!!! Sideswipe can stand fine if you just take your time and do it right, and Prime is perfect (other than some small paint issues, but that's really picking nits). There is a much higher attention to detail this time around, and it's about time.
Also, my custom Halo 3 Spartan came in, but more on that in a few/several weeks.
Stay tuned for the reviews, and for updates on the figures I'll be picking up.

SPP Stop Motion- Premium Optimus Prime
That's right, after over ten months, me and my stop motions are back, and we're hitting the internets hard.
(Available in High Quality, Higher Quality, and HD)
So, yeah, widescreen and HD. I knew I good do it, and although I know that not that many people will take the time to load the whole video in HD, I'm glad I did it. It looks great, and I encourage you to try it. If not, there are other quality options...
Also, I figured out that I can do green screen, which is pretty cool. It should make a lot of stuff easier...
Also, I have made an animated gif out of the last half of this video. One is about the height of a gamercard, and the other is a little larger. Simply click on the picture to copy/paste the URL or save it to your hard drive. Feel free to use it in your forum signatures...

RotF News- Leader Class Jetfire Revealed!!
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, the Cthulhu of Transformers, Jetfire!
(Note the tentacle like-mandibles)
I know I'm kinda late on this story, but whatever. Click on the image to enlarge it.
Here's his bio:
Nice looking vehicle mode:
He looks kinda scary, which I like!
Here's the cool part:
That's right, he combines with Prime without having to buy any extra stuff like with
Devastator. However, looking at some other pictures, it seems like he basically just turns into a backpack with extra weapons...
In other news, after careful consideration, I decided to keep my reviews on my original channel, but I will not be putting as much music in them, if any. I also have (1st movie) Leader Class Megatron and Protoform Starscream in the mail, so I'll do a review of them and Protoform Prime when I get them...

SPP Video- Been Had Transformers
Here's a special video that I made....
First, an explanation.
Here's the video on G4's Attack of the Show's Around the Net segment for February 24.
So, seeing as I'm always thinking about Transformers, I came up with this version.

SPP Toy Review- Review of Movie Premium Leader Prime Upgade Sets
Yep. First video review. It's not really about the figure, though.
(Available in High Quality)
In other news...
I now have a Twitter Account, so follow me there. Updates are in the widget on here, too.
The Facebook Page has been updated, as have all pages, so become a fan there.
I also got a headset mic today because I may be on the TFWIRE: TransFormers Week In REview podcast this Sunday, the 29th. They're having a round table episode and are inviting members of the forums to join. No guaratees, but I should be on. If you haven't already, you should really subscribe to them on iTunes.
Also, all stop motions will now be in widescreen and HD!! I'm not yet exactly sure about the specifics of how I will be doing this, but I simply know that I can, which means I will.

RotF News- Leader Prime and Megatron In and Out of Box Pics!
These have been put up on eBay by seller 'yayabeee'. These figures are selling at $1,000 each with another two put up for auction. YouTube user peaugh will probably be buying them, and we should see a review from him soon.
Click the pictures to see a full size version.
Read the Bio for a little back story...
Tank mode looks better than his last jet mode, but it's still a little weird.
He definitely looks deformed, but after reading his bio, he seems to really fit the part and make sense.
Certainly reminiscent of the first movie's design, but still different.
But, as usual, let's focus on Prime!
I hate to say this, but I think the truck mode looks a little stale and uninteresting. It may just be the way the figure is photographed, but the red on the hood and the blue on the top looks bland. It looks like a lighter shade of blue, too. But it's good that the flames on the side of the hood are still there. But it may just be that it looks plain in comparison to my Premium one that's covered in stickers.
His transformation is really complex, but that's a good thing. The more pieces that move, the more accurate and detailed each mode will be.
Looks like battery replacement instructions, so we'll be getting some lights and sounds.
It appears that the swords cannot be removed, instead, they flip out from under the plates on his forearms.
Not much of a backpack, and lots of leg and ankle articulation means good balance and an opportunity for a wide range of poses. Plus stability, which is good for stop motions.
I dare say that this will be the best Prime ever, and, as you know, I have the 20th Anniversary one. This may even be the best Transformer ever, because obviously the best one will be a Prime. :)
But the level of detail and the amount of articulation is just breathtaking. I've already started saving up for this figure so I'll have the $40- $50 to buy him as soon as he comes out.

RotF News- Toy Fair Image Dump: Creme of the Crop!!
That's right, Optimus Prime, baby!!
Torso looks really accurate:
The detail on his head is absolutely outstanding:
His legs look rather awkward and rigid when they're straight. Some more action poses would be nice, but the accurate details (knee pads, tires, feet) are fantastic.
Two Swords!!!!!
Gorgeous truck mode:
The accuracy on this figure is amazing:
These two swords are sure to kick some serious ass, and he's going to need them, because here's what he's up against:
This picture obviously confirms Megatron's appearance in the film, but I don't think there was much doubt about it. Bay and his minions kept denying it, but I'm sure that they just wanted it to be a big reveal.
A quick word about the new "Mech-Alive" feature in these figures. Some thought that it was the new name for the first movie's "Automorph Technology" but it's not. Although Automorph is still present, it's not being advertised as much. Here's the difference:
Automorph: Moving one piece would cause others to move with a practical purpose, i.e. making transformations easier and faster.
Mech-Alive: Moving one piece causes others to move with an aesthetic purpose, i.e. making gears in the chest or arm move to make it look like a realistic robot.

RotF News- Leader Prime Revealed
Well, just the back of the box, which does show him.
The features it is said to have include the following:
* Double Snap Out Energy Swords
* Electronic Speech
* Light Up Eyes and Chest
* Engine Revving and Truck Racing Sounds
* Automatic Conversion Sounds
* "Mech Alive" gimmick (which might be similar to Automorphing)
The box reads:
With the destruction of Megatron, Optimus Prime thought he was finally, after millions of years, at peace. Little did he know that the escape of Starscream would draw dozens of new Decepticons to Earth. The desire that burns brightest in his spark is that the war will soon end. He is determined to see that end come, and so he works with his human comrades and the other Autobots to hunt the Decepticons that have come to Earth, and destroy them, one by one.
Hopefully the glare on the windshield is just an effect, cuz that would look retarded, and I hope he has wrists, too. But this looks way better than the first one, I know that Optimus Prime is the only figure I'm going to re-buy that was in the first one. And I can't wait to see those double swords in action in the movie!!!
Thanks to Siebertron.
