Halloween 2026 …an attempt was made

Look at these two dumbasses ❤️

Another hell of game! Hawks extend their streak of wins in extra innings and take a 2-0 lead in the series. ⚾️

A #Transformers pic (almost) every day in October. Days 21 and 22: MetalFigs Optimus and Megatron These were a gift from a friend of a friend who I hooked awhile back. Any time I can get a Prime and Megs set is a good one and these make for particularly good deskbots ❤️

A #Transformers pic (almost) every day in October. Days 16, 17, 18, and 19: G1 Soundwave, Ravage, Laserbeak, and Rumble/Frenzy (who I’m counting as one just to make the numbers work) What can I say? Soundwave (and his tapes) is one the best toys of all time. Soundwave: Superior

MY QUEEN

I’m not reposting it, but the website TF-Direct has put up a photo of Studio Series Optimus Prime posed into the shape of a swastika Absolutely disgusting There’s no ambiguity or nuance to stuff like this - it’s just awful, and it has zero place in the Transformers fandom
