That robot... man... I'm kind of creeped out that he is always pointing at me. Good thing he's friendly.

Not size in kBs, but width. It is wider than the 480 px allowed in a normal thread. I just came out of a pretty deep conversation with Kevin and tooki in another thread about this (WWII Axis picture thread)

I appreciate your comment though, it is exactly how I feel too! (but rules are rules I suppose and the admins are pretty adamant about it)

cheers

Weyland-Yutani got to derail this one too?

And it has nothing to do with internet speed.

I'd hate for yet another Optimus Prime thread to be locked...

Somebody better do something about that picture.

No fanboi card needed, but tooki is getting jealous. Oh and Optimus Prime rocked, I grew up with the original Transformers on TV, not the new Japanese style Armada stuff. I had a few models too, Jazz the Porsche, Ramjet the fighter plane, the fire engine (can't remember name, but he had a yellow crane truck as a twin brother).

Can we stop talking about stalkers and fanbois (whatever those care) and pixels and stuff, and get to the heart of this very relevant issue?

I love the cover art of the Transformers comics from Dreamwave (Pat Lee).

Do you mean Inferno?

I think Grapple is the other guy you're referring to, but I don't remember those two being brothers.

Poor Jazz
The "Transformers/GI JOE" series wasn't so good to him.

I'm kinda pissed I never noticed this before. Think of all the money that the toy companies made off of those Transformers action figures - and to think that the 'authentic' Optimus Prime action figure didn't even point!

Oh, the tragedy!
