STORAGE Back Issue: Shiny!
As the Block is having a few problems and I (the resident comic person, whoops!) have been trying to work the blog into my new work schedule (unsuccessfully), I thought it was time to drum up some lols with a back issue.
The main aim of STORAGE as a comic (aside the first issue, which was a tribute our own marvellous Brentosaur, who wrote the dialogue) is a cross-over between Toy Story's Buzz Lightyear, and the plastic cast of Small Soldiers. The 'bots of the comic behave just as they would in the show, but are still aware that they are toys. I thought this would be a good way to have Transformers's own characters complain about continuity, fandom...and being made to live with a human female.
This particular comic deals with that last part.
Enjoy!

Moriarty Reviews: DOTM Ratchet
Mmmmm, green-flavoured.
The comment section of the Block seems to be broken for a few countries, so if you want to drop some feedback you can comment over at the vid! x
EDIT: OMFG LOL MOST HILARIOUS THUMBNAIL EVER. lmao.
Please Stand By: Technical Issues.
As you may well have noticed, we're experiencing some problems with users being able to view the contents of the posts here on the 'Block. This appears to be an ongoing issue with Blogger itself and we are working hard (threatening them) to get it resolved as quickly as possible.
Apologies for this hiccup and thanks for your support, we will have the 'Block rocking for you all soon!
PLEASE STAND BY

Mantis Nine Nines informs us: "Soundwave has 16 points of articulation and he can use them ALL, ladies..."
That's some impressive broken-legged break-dancing we're seeing there! Does anyone have the lack-of-a-gut to beat this? Submissions to: Mattersmasher@thetransformingblock.com
I was in a road accident and somehow ended up in a disco...
