Combiners

In this episode the Traumatised Fans get connected with Combiners. Are our opinions out on a limb, or do we have a core consensus? Maybe our personalities will clash and prevent us from unlocking the enigma of combination robots? Whatever happens, we're going to form a gestalt to sit down and really get to grips with why Combining Robots forms such an important part of the Transformers Franchise. With the news and views of the moment. Every Fan has their Traumas, share yours with us on BlueSky, Instagram and Reddit, or message us at fanstraumas@gmail.com

Transformers: Armada

Energon Universe Skybound Comics

SPOILER ALERT for the current (2024-2026) run of Transfomers Comics. You have been warned! In this Universe our entitlement knows no bounds as we tell industry legends how we'd do their job, if only we knew how to do it. We get lyrical on narratives and discuss which awful Decepticon would make the best Autobot. Plus the latest news. PLEASE NOTE: A technical issue with Jay's recording meant that a lot of re-recording had to happen in the editing process which has left this episode sounding very sub-standard and awkward. Please bear with and we promise to be better next time.
