“While you can’t shoot any pictures with this”
I have never felt more disappointment from a sentence fragment before.
I always felt a little sad for the Transformers who turned into weird or useless shit. The lead villain turns into a pistol, but his generals are like fighter jets and dinosaurs and shit? Even the cassette tape dogs were cooler than a freaking boring pistol. I mean, couldn’t you turn into something else that was holding a pistol, ffs?
Ooh, lookie here, a list of dumb transformers including… Reflector. Ouch.
Sure, it’s a Canon, but is it canon?
In the cartoons Megatron hardly ever transformed. He was still one of the best villains though.
Yup. It wouldn’t be hard to make it be even a shitty kid-grade digital camera as well as a robot toy. I’m actually surprised they didn’t do just that.
More than meets the eye!
