Also Liz Phair does an amazing cover of it... if it's going to get stuck in your head anyway 😂

Back this great book and get in on the ground floor of Scotch Transforming Robot history, as @adtcomics.bsky.social and I bring you the future - today!
Experiment? Try a Cyberworld figure or something of the like. Small figures are easy on wallet, and not terribly regrettable if you don't like them.
Don't make me send you something, mister!

TRANSFORMERS: THE BASICS on MICRONUS PRIME is now live! Size matters not as we once again journey back to the Age of the Primes for a look at the the original short king of Cybertron - creator of Microspace, maker of the Micronauts, father of all Mini-Cons!

It has been brought to my attention that since I shared this someone liked it enough to 3D render it and offer it for sale as a replacement head for the upcoming toy!
06.02.2026 22:32 — 👍 32 🔁 13 💬 2 📌 0If you're attending TFN Manchester remember - I will sketch for you, obviously, BUT I can also colour sketches you've commissioned from ACTUAL artistes, cos I'm a better colourist than wot I am a drawerer (and writer).
How does it work? Why, like this.... kriscarter.sumupstore.com/page/sketche...
Commission from 10+ years ago of Liege Maximo.
At the time, only the G2 version existed, and his face, if he had one, was always shrouded in black shadow, so I had to make a lot of the details up.
Thought it worth sharing, since the new toy has similarly filled out the face.
Art is my only source on income right now so casual reminder commissions are currently open! DM me or I have VGen! Open to anything physical, digital, any characters etc
(If anyone wants artwork for London Comic Con I can do pick-ups for the show!)

MPG17 Style Gen Prime posed on my coffee table.
100% agreed on all points. I love this Prime, and I'm one of those crazy animation accurate nuts. I keep picking it back up and having fun with it. Hoping they do a Style Gen Megatron.

My dog Toby, a spoiled light brown dog with big ears, pokes his head from under a blanket on the couch. He has a satisfied/smug look on his face.
The comfy boy.
