• We cover a few more upcoming Legacy United and Studio Series releases, including Cybertron Starscream, and 86 Blaster. Opaque Eject compels some to sing the virtue of miniature Transformers. Minicons, you say? No, never heard of them.
  
  
  
• The Missing Link has been found, and it is gloriously roast-proof. The only question is: will this be a one-off?
  
  
  
• Do we enjoy the MPG trainbots? Yes we do. Are they excellent robots that turn into trains? Yes they are. Is making them combine into a super robot a good idea? Yes it is. Is MPG Raiden good? The only response to that question - it's time for The Roast to begin.
  
• 40 for 40 is back: the year is 2002. Each member of the Twincast explains their favorite Transformers toy from this auspicious year for the brand.

Join the Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast consisting of your host ScottyP along with Kuhlio, Aaarnhide19 and Mr. Starscream as they discuss and extrapolate on the literal deluge of Transformers leaks for the upcoming 2024-2025 season. "40 for 40" reaches the year 2001, new toys have shown up with no prior official reveal and even Hot Wheels hit the topic list. Yes, Hot Wheels.

Episode #344 “Journey to the Pegs” is available directly and in our RSS Feed, and should appear on Apple Podcasts and many other Podcatcher sites within 24 to 48 hours of when you see this news post.

Here's what we discuss in this episode:

• The show opens with some colorful banter about non-transformers super robot anime and of course, a deep esoteric discussion on the state of Hot Wheels collecting.
• A new core class figure? Discovered in store!? This is some big-game hunting indeed!
  
• It's raining Studio Series leaks for this and next year, but the big elephant in the room is the potential for a collect-a-figure combining Studio Series 86 Devastator as seen in The Transformers: The Movie. The cast generally prepares for extermination.
• There's more to talk about than just movie toys to discuss, as the Mayhem Attack Squad exclusive Amazon capsule starts to take shape before our very eyes. Some surprises for sure and the cast speculates on what these character 2-packs could really be and which might cause a Ruckus.
  
• Skybound's Transformers #5 gets some discussion time
• The everlasting 40 for 40 gets interesting as we round the millennium and find ourselves in the pivotal year, 2001. As the brand began to reshape into what we know it as today, the choices aren't quite as obvious anymore and a wider breadth of products become available and with them come more opinions.
  
• As always, we wind down a meaty discussion with bragging rights and Aaarnhide19 impresses everyone with his wide range of tastes and culture.
