COUNTDOWN: 132 Transformers tweets from December that need to be seen! (part 1)

Happy new year! As we collectively celebrate another mark on the calendar, it is of course time to look back on the best that Transformers Twitter had to offer over the previous month, too! For December there was a definite festive theme for much of it, and overall the standard was undeniably high, hence this is a bit of a bumper list again.

They’re presented vaguely in date order, although only roughly. It’s definitely not a competitive thing!

If you look at this without hearing the sound in your head then I don’t know what to say.

If you look closely, there is an inaccuracy in this re-creation. That's right: I did not bother to find a tiny sponge.#Transformers #トランスフォーマー #TFTOYの面白さを伝え隊 #MoreMasterpiece #Skids pic.twitter.com/2ybqR2PAse

This was a transformation I’ve always wanted to recreate in #StopMotion since I was a kid watching #Transformers Cybertron. Thundercracker (voiced by @TFanPage101 ) ’s CG model in the show had such cool proportions though, much better than the actual toy. pic.twitter.com/skwFSl24Pr

Took another crack at Nyx, since the last time I drew her, she didn't actually have full body reference available.#art #fanart #Transformers #BeastWars #Nyx #Maximal #Hasbro #Takara #characterart #Illustration #IDW pic.twitter.com/QKH6UWDeCH

Yes, Studio Series Soundwave inspired quite the reaction overall.
