The Second San Pablo Comics Festival is a celebration of Philippine comics where one can buy independently produced Filipino comic books (as well as imported ones) and meet the people who create them!

There will be a comics art exhibit, art contest, writer and artist signings, comic book sales, mini- tutorials, mini seminars, panel discussions and many more!

San Pablo too far away? Think of it as a vacation! Think of it as getting away from it all! Think of it as decentralizing Manila and spreading the comics love to the provinces! Plus, you'll get an AWESOME view!

See you there!

new Prototype found of Frenzy/Rumble-type robot.



picture found here.




an image surfaced showing what appears to be a classics style frenzy/rumble prototype that fans speculate as either an official hasbro prototype or another fansproject not unlike the voyager sized MP prime or the new Deluxe Springer figure seen a few months back.

    appearing to be scout in size and a well detailed sculpt that updates the look of the classic G1 cassetticons Frenzy and Rumble, it is still unclear if in any way this figure can interact with the classics ravage released last year or if this is any indication of a classics soundwave any time in the future.

only time will tell whether this will see any release at all or be shelved and forgotten. either way it's hella cool.
