Radio Free Cybertron is the world’s first and oldest toy and action figure podcast — broadcasting from the heart of the Transformers fan community since October 1999. What started as a scrappy fan show has grown into an institution, with nearly 1,000 episodes and over 25 years of coverage. Every week, host Brian Kilby and the RFC crew dig into the latest Transformers news, toy reveals, collecting, and everything hitting shelves from Hasbro, Takara, and beyond. No fluff, no hype — just informed, passionate collectors who have been doing this longer than anyone else on the planet. The original. The longest running. Till all are one.
Peter Cullen's passing anchors this week's show, alongside a Fall of Cybertron Studio Series leak, the Megatron Rising subline, and a What We Got segment led by Diecast's Bruticus-bound Swindle. Don also loses a 45-minute battle with the Age of Extinction Bumblebee. The post Radio Free Cybertron 1003 – Don’s Bumblebee Problem appeared first on Radio Free Cybertron .
Target's giant $35 Optimus Prime has the crew stumped on the math, Upper Deck is entering the trading card business, and a record-grade case of sealed G1 Soundwaves has everyone debating what they'd even do with it. Plus: Matt's double Target find, and a Unicron Soldier retool that does not go over well.

In What We Got This Week, Don brings home Herald of Unicron, Megazarak, a boxed Titanium Rodimus Prime, and a combined Bruticus Swindle, while Diecast finally lands the Fans Toys Rambo alongside an SDCC cereal-box Optimus Prime and Jazz.
