A different #deskbot every day in August: Day 5 Fortress Maximus from Kabaya (DX version). The original 2010’s Kabaya Fort Max was a thing of beauty and the updated DX version only improved on it. More stickers and even some paint applications serve to make this Kabaya’s masterpiece.

A different #deskbot every day in August: Day 4 Tarn from TakaraTomy I cannot overstate just how much I loved James Roberts’ MTMTE comics. They reinvigorated my love of Transformers after I thought I’d put the franchise behind me. Of all the new characters, Tarn was my fave. And he’s a toy now!

Daiso now has these 3-card protectors and that allows for *so* many display options 🤩

Taking the actual piss 😂

A different #deskbot every day in August: Day 3 Masterpiece Gattai (MPG) Style Gen Optimus Prime from TakaraTomy. This impossibly-nice figure answers the question “what would a modern Masterpiece Optimus look like were it unbound from the expectations of what a masterpiece toy *must* have?”

A #deskbot every day in August: Day 1 Masterpiece Megatron from TakaraTomy While this very pointedly did NOT age well, I’ll argue that as a masterpiece version of the 1985 Takara Transformers TOY, it is actually pretty freaking great.

Wow! Brand New Day was VERY Spider-Man! Like, 100% unapologetically Spider-Man. The Spider-Manliest of movies.

Well this was freakin’ excellent!

Well this was freakin’ excellent!

Throwing out like half a dozen huge bags of “trash” this evening, mostly from our office and storage wall. Not keeping stuff that somebody I may meet at some point in the future might have some use for.

Watched that MCU Punisher special tonight ahead of seeing Spider-Man tomorrow afternoon. I think it was somewhere around the 60th person Frank effortlessly kills when my wife was like, “Is the new Spider-Man movie gonna be like this?” I assured her it will not be.

Thanks I hate it

An attempt at drawing His Airness this afternoon

One more week until my little summer break. On the one hand, I desperately need the time off. On the other hand, without the rush I get when classes go well, I get really depressed really quickly. Need a break, but the break takes me away from the best part of my life. Not ideal.

Wife: Remember when you used to throw out the boxes for all the collectibles you’d buy? Me: Yeah. Good times. Wife: Why’d you no longer throw out the boxes for all the collectibles you buy? The boxes for all the collectibles I buy:

The chintzy-looking M64 clone console of the N64 by a company named ModRetro has been released, I think, I don't pay attention that closely to shit. But as the great @frankcifaldi.bsky.social posted before, it is our civic duty to push back against this company and shun ANYONE who doesn't.

There is literally nothing more American than undocumented immigration.

Nice thing about having a big desk is that the #deskbot options are almost unlimited. Here are the three main Maximal leaders from Beast Wars in Japan

You’re a new character who is a remold of Optimus Prime and combines with his trailer? Yes. I’m a new character who is a remold of Optimus Prime and combines with his trailer. So? Are you better than me? Well, I’ve never met you, but…yes.

What if I started taking my #deskbot photos on an actual desk instead of in that tiny light box setup? Let’s find out.

I don't think I've ever put these on Bluesky, I did these cover paintings for Marvel UK's Transformers comic in the early 90's.

It’s not that I mind having to do nearly all the housework by myself. Somebody has to do it and that’s fine. What I mind is that there aren’t enough hours in the day for me clean as fast as my partner messes up the place 😡

Seriously, tho. How great are Transformers?
