Happy new year, everyone! We’re one month into 2021 already and Twitter has already been dishing out more awesome Transformers content than ever – hence this month we have a bumper edition of 75 incredible tweets from January that need to be seen.
As ever, they’re presented in date order (but only kinda), so get cracking below!
#75:
If you start watching Transformers: The Movie at exactly 10:42:55 PM on New Years Eve, you can start 2021 with Rodimus Prime asking the Autobot Matrix of Leadership to light our darkest hour at the stroke of midnight. pic.twitter.com/c0KVgggAtk

People sure had fun fossilizing stuff this month… this was one of many!

Wow, it’s almost enough to make you think that a T-Rex on roller skates is… ridiculous?

And just like that, it's done.
Thank you to everyone who showed up for the streams and for following me on Twitch, I really appreciate it.Right, guess I'd better get this off to a printers, if they're open.#Transformers #Hasbro #Takara #Sunbow #G1 #Natephoenix pic.twitter.com/qI3jyIGYNW

Here's a very rare sight! 25 years ago was the debut of #BeastWars #Transformers and the first run were in these rock-shaped bubbles. All nine of these rare treasures were on display during our preview days! #bonitatoys #toycollecting #toystore #SWFL #SWFlorida pic.twitter.com/IxRS5ujpU4

It will never not be thrilling to see pictures of sealed vintage toys on shelves.

I'd give this a 50/50 chance on actually working out but it's fun to experiment pic.twitter.com/tOoAeGoxxM
— Sam's Forge (@Sam_Makes_Toys) January 7, 2021
Some fun and creative custom work right here!
Hey look now arcee is in colour
I think she works quite well as a deluxe Terminator Arcee. The armour is a total conversion so with a bit of parts forming she can just about form a car. Will need some tollerance tweaks to fit together just right.

Since I made an animated gif of Hasbro's previous Ghostbusters/Transformers crossover figure, it's only natural to do something with the recent 'Back to the Future' crossover… So here's Gigawatt in action! #Hasbro #Transformers #BackToTheFuture pic.twitter.com/ITrmyxFN0Q

he's mostly been done for a few weeks, but i can't think of a background for him that i like.
so here is Animated Sky Lynx, with no background or CRT filter#Transformers #TFA https://t.co/rCNuPjF3AQhttps://t.co/gFhJXoDFGK pic.twitter.com/oLkaRJOxE8— Zucchinna 🏳️⚧️ 🏳️🌈 (@ZucchinnaArt) January 10, 2021
If you’re having trouble deciding on a background then before you do anything, think, ‘Is this what Sky Lynx would do in my position?‘, and you will not go far wrong.

Transformers, if they were in scale based on the scale of their alt modes (used the HO scale alt modes as the reference, updated to include Astrotrain in both modes) pic.twitter.com/s36ShOl3vI
— Lazy Eyebrow (@LazyEyebrow) January 11, 2021
A little follow up to a similar tweet last month, but yet again showing how silly the scale debate can be at times…

Some concept art for my Transformers project. I'm considering using the Evergreen designs. I thought it would be fun to make evergreen styled designs for Cliffjumper and Glyph. As for Arcee, her design is based off of the Terminator design and I used it as a basis for Lifeline. pic.twitter.com/zJMhMgN9sV
— Infinite Dynamics/BLM (@InfiniteDynami1) January 17, 2021
Some fun designs.

Apparently acquired from Sunbow Prod.'s inventory, and now found in a closed warehouse by Tales of Adventure, a comic shop in Coopersburg, PA. pic.twitter.com/9E0JQ5SybI— Jalaguy (@Jalaguy) January 20, 2021
This is so interesting to see (even if it’s hard not to be able to ‘smell’ these photos!).

Pretenders hide the Diaclone inside
The 1984 patent for the Diaclone figure which would become Grimlock is fairly unremarkable… right up until detail 35, which describes the rubbery dinosaur skin you wrapped around the figure, to complete the transformation. pic.twitter.com/83yvlTr5Xp
