Starcream joins the Autobots? Guess how long you think the Autobots will believe he is switching sides.

Episode Notes

Starscream betrays the Decepticons to join the Autobots? Listen and hear everything once again from the Decepticon's side so you know what their planning, but you also see the Autobot side as well, and already know what they are planning, is this differently told tale of Espionage!!!!!.

And, we find out info about our UK Audio Cassette Narrator, who is someone most people would know from his current video game voice acting work, as well as tons of anime work in the 80s and 90s.

#73 – UK Audio Adventure - Menace At The Dam

The Decepticons talk about what to do, and Megatron tries to pretend he is in control.

Episode Notes

For this episode, we left in the talk of us as we set up our audio in case you ever wondered how we work. We used to use Voicemeter for the audio casette stories, but it always took us 30 minutes or more each time to set it all up again for 3 people and a seperate audio track whenever there was an update, a new mic, etc, so now I just stream the MP3 file on Discord via Windows Media Player. This Discord stream cannot be recorded by Discord's recorder bots, so I later have to drop the audio cassette file into my Audacity Audio Editor later for all of you to actually hear.

And now, on with the 3rd out of 4 UK Audio Adventure Exclusives! It's time to Menace At The Dam.

#72 – Sticker Book - Revenge Of The Decepticons

The Autobots have to find their missing oil, all while you put stickers on them!

Episode Notes

How is this simple story from a 16 page stickerbook? What can be told, colored, and stickered in that amount of space? Plus, The very first line is of Cliffjumper being trigger-happy, which only supports everything Thomas believes about him. Shawn's worst Autobots, Gears and Huffer, show up with...gasp...dialogue! It's the worst Transformers in a story about the mystery of the stolen oil.

Plus, we try to find out if one Autobot is Optimus Prime, despite the fact that he left already; is it a Clone? A mix of Gears and Optimus due to having to learn so many characters? Let's find out!

#71 – TV 24 - Atlantis, Arise!

Megatron and Subatlanticans join forces to take over Washington, DC, and then, the world!

Episode Notes

Thomas tries to figure out the Subatlantican's process of communicating based on the animation. Shawn wonders how Spike went underwater in a car with multiple costume changes, how Bumblebee emptied water from his car while underwater, and why Spike has a regular snorkle that should drown him, yet also has an air tank on his back not connected to anything. Madness only in this episode of fish psychics. Plus, a look at 2 cool official Transformers toys from 1984 and 1985, a Race Car Set and a Train Set!

#70 – TV 23 - The Autobot Run

The Autobots race for charity, only to find themselves trapped in car form when the Decpticons attack.

Episode Notes

The Autobots race for charity, only to find themselves trapped in car form when the Decpticons attack. Thrill, as we get off topic a lot, because this was our most boring episode for us. However, stay tuned (at 57:00) for the Character Spotlight on Optimus Prime, as we finish the Spotlight on every Season 1 Autobot.

#68 – Peril From The Stars (Adventure Game Book [UK])

A fun Choose Your Own Adventure story that uses time consistently.

Episode Notes

So, you can't use 'Choose Your Own Adventure' because it is copyrighted? Then go with 'Find Your Fate'. Oh, an American Company already registered that, too. Ok. Let's go with 'Adventure Book.' Too generic to copyright? Well, it's a game, right? Lets go with 'Adventure Game Book' (I assume this is how this was created).

So is this a knock-off UK Choose Your Own Adventure Book? Or is it a well-crafted story that uses time to interact with the story in a consistent fashion (that description was pretty specific)? So let's control your human child avatar, hook-up with Jazz, and try to save your Aunt & Uncle. Let the Adventure (Game Book) begin!

#67 – Dinobots Strike Back (Chose Your Fate)

Can we help the Dinobots not to die! Can we make a Dinobot stop being so lazy?

Episode Notes

We read a Choose Your Own Adventure / Find Your Fate book where all the Dinobots, except Swoop, have been mind-controlled by the Insecticons. Join us in what is a short book, but we somehow sepnd the longest time agonizing over which decision to choose to get the good ending. You would think it would be a Swoop Adventure, but no, the first third of the book is about stopping the mind-controlled Dinobots, and the next two-thirds follows Sludge on an adventure to stop some Decepticons with Bumblebee and Skids. Listen as the descriptions we are given don't always follow through with what they state would happen.

Read 'Transformers: Find Your Fate - Dinobot's Strike Back' along with us, and see the art that shows up, as well.

Episode Notes

A Review of Brainiac from Superman: The Animated Series (TAS). Is Brainiac similar to a Transformer when compared to his first 2 appearances?
