About lmb3

I’m 36 years old, and I work in network tech support for a public school system. I am a huge fan of Star Trek, Transformers, Harry Potter, and Marvel Comics as well as numerous other fandoms. I’m a big sports fan, especially the Boston Red Sox and the New England Patriots. I collect toys (mostly Transformers but other stuff too), comic books, and Red Sox baseball cards. I watch an obscene amount of television and love going to the movies. I am hopelessly addicted to Wizard Rock and I write Harry Potter Fanfiction, though these days I am working on a couple of different original YA novels.

Posted on December 25, 2016 by lmb3

Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015) Warrior Class Blastwave Blastwave I am not sure if he is meant to be Bludgeon, or if we are getting him repainted later as Bludgeon.  Blastwave is heavily remolded from Megatronus.  He’s so remolded, they’ve … Continue reading →
