Look I'm sure these will be great in animation but every single one of these 2026 Thomas faces looks like they have either committed or witnessed some sort of crime.

Thomas & Friends: Wonders of Sodor: The Analog Horror

I bought my first "dad" game and I'm enjoying it leagues more than the new Doom The Dark Ages DLC because that is my life now. THRILL as you reverse into trucks! Then pull away with the trucks! MARVEL as you stop Exactly in the right spot at the station! Cheaper than model trains though.

Hey look! I got a toy that wasn't a train with a face on it! It's a humanoid with no face! Shite photo aside he's probably the best version of Siege Shockers overall depending on your yolerance/love of greebling. Definite "default character model" vibes.

STUDIOS SERIES 86 ASTROTRAIN OPENED A FLOODGATE.

Every English person who doesn't care about the ballsport.

Jesus Christ Henry can you go ONE decade without a bad look?

WARNING. Viewing the attached image can have the following side effects - Rediscovering a love for Thomas the Tank Engine (TTTE). - Watching TTTE Youtubers. - Buying TTTE merch - Learning Henry used the N word in the 60's. - Knowledge of "All Engines Go." - Self-inflicted shotgun to the head.

Man, they're really taking some liberties with the character designs for the new Thomas the Tank Engine 2026 reboot.

Astrotrain arrived, and he's not as bad as people say. His transformation is fun poses well and is made solidly. Pity his bot mode looks like a paving stone grew horribly proportioned limbs and then got hit by a car.

So Farage resigns just to run again. If that doesn't scream he's just doing it for the theatrics I don't know what does.

Every person in the UK who doesn't really care about sportsball.

Question. Is there much call for the old generations deluxe Seekers now? Decided with the ER and now SS86 guys they're taking up needed space. Sam with coneheads. Probably gonna put em up for sale.

Dead As Disco. An Early Access game where you beat people up in time with music (think Hi-Fi Rush but leaning more into DMC combo levels). You can also add your own music to the game. And it has mod support. Soooo..... youtu.be/nHTWmwcQyHs

WE'RE BACK! OH SWEET BANDWIDTH HOW I MISSED YOU, DON'T EVER LEAVE DADDY AGAIN!

Internet won't be fixed until tomorrow at the earliest. Fun.

FUCK

So these last 2 days: Yesterday: Water main at work broke which meant no flushing and no washing yor hands, got sent home because this. Power cut at home that lasted until 7:15pm. Today: Internet outage from 2am thus morning and still ongoing. I expect my head to spontaneously combust tonight.

In others news, trees are made of wood, the sky is blue, Santa isn't real and people die when they are killed.

Power is out and I can't find my power bank so leeching power of my work laptop while eating a sub-par takeaway calzone while @rayematthews.bsky.social is at a work party. Fucking wild Friday night up in this shit.

Two of a trio of Seekers from One.

I'm not gonna pretend that 90% of the games I buy now aren't digital but I always liked having the option of physical games. If Microsoft says they'll support game discs and increase backwards compatibility as seems to be the rumour, it'll distract from all the layoffs I guess?

Reacquainting myself with the Legacy pretenders today. Two of the best core class with one of the worst Deluxes, which got made into one of the best (Quake).

Anyone else more interested in Ace Combat 6 & Godzilla Destroy All Monsters Melee remaster releasing in October/November than GTA6? Yeah I'm sure I'll get GTA6 eventually but gotta support those niche releases day one.

Cyberworld Spinewave is fun if very basic, the continuing trend of no eldows aside, he's fun to flip back and foirth and the Energon armour is OK, though looks far better in Spino mode.

"We're all the same guy! Literally. Or not. Or did we used to be? Or was that a lie? Multiversal singularities give us a headache."

‘Say yes and never do it’ Mel Brooks knew how to deal with the studios

@rayematthews.bsky.social @metallixbrother.bsky.social @bowsette.bsky.social I THOUGHT OF A NAME FOIR OUR DNBD TROUPE. Guild Of Intrepid Truth Seekers. G. O. I. T. S.

On my second shower of the day. Anyone else?

Clark Kent. Hero, friend, Disney Princess.

Prider-Man.

It is the year 2040. An Xbox costs the GDPR of Poland. Sony has announced another round of layoffs at Bungie, which hasn't had any employees since 2029. Nintendo just straight up executed a guy streaming the 13th remake of Star Fox 64. Star Citizen is still in early access.

THE OFFICE IS VERY WARM AND I AM STICK. I REQUIRE COOL SHOWERS.

Trash Street Kids. Yeah Wreck-Gar does not suit this body but I still like the Trashmaster sculpt. *Weird Al reference goes here. *

Ooooooooo. Might need this to go in the Sixshot collection. But then I'd have seveb so more than one for each mode... *snap fingers* No wait, "secret" Wingwolf mode he killed Magnus with, we're good!

After today's round of political skull fuckery I was tempted to do a post about how punchable Nigel Farage's face was. Then I decided it'd be much funnier to think about what happened if you slapped various British politicians with a haddock.

Muppet Cannibal Holocaust.

So I bought a DnD Rakor (black dragon) diceling for a fiver on a TF FB group. Package arrived today. One Shattered Glass Ultra/Delta Magnus, complete, an Geb Selects Tigertrack, and a high detail Red Power Ranger MISB. Yeah some poor bugger is gonna be pissed. Contacted the seller.

YOU GOTTA FALL ASLEEP SOMETIME BROTHER

Blackjack (sans hookers and lunar theme park):

"Do you really need to disable my voice box doc?" "Temporarily yes, othetwise it's terminal" "I'LL DIE?" "Yes, cos if you don't shut the scrap up for five minutes I'LL SLAGGING KILL YOU MYSELF!"

Gots my AOTP Swerve and Ratchet. God why did they give Swerve such a dour face? He's a decent retool of Gears but he needed a shit eating grin ala his T30 version. Without that he's just a slab of "adequate."

Not a footie fan omandboften not proud of my country, but you gotta respect our ambassadors abroad sometimes.

I'M SORRY WHY AM I ONLY FINDING OUT NOW THAT CYBERWORLD SCOURGE TURNS INTO A FUCKING PIRATE GALLEON!?

Decepticons disguised as cubes, or victims of an ACME anvil? Dr Wu Scorponok and Trypticon in cube modes.

They keep talking about Trump's birthday on the radio and for whatever reason I keep thinking about this line from a Lord Bravery segment in Freakazoid

Is it weird that I think this social media ban (which won't work BTW) is one of those "OK I get what you're trying to do" things but also one of the dumbest ham fisted way to try accomplish these goals? Oh wait I'm expecting nuance and paitence from politicians, silly me!
