Tonkanator. I love them and I have no fucking idea why
Tumblr media
Like seriously. On paper I would HATE this thing, but I can’t help but love it. They’re not a good Devastator, they’re an okay toy but MAN they have such a charm to them that I can’t explain.

A long time ago now, there was a fair amount of kerfuffle on twitter about “Do you have to read in order to be able to write?” I saw a lot of takes that there were other ways to learn craft.
And there are. But I’m still going to argue that you almost have to be exposed to the medium you’re creating in to be good at it (if you don’t want to be good at it, that’s cool, too, have fun!). You have to expose yourself to it, observe it, engage in it. That specific medium. Not others.
There are lots of ways to learn the craft of storytelling. Anime, manga, comic books, webcomics, graphic novels, comic strips, movies, live action TV, cartoons, short films, poetry, screenplays, stage plays (both on the page and on the stage), opera, ballet, music, newsreels, creative nonfiction, podcasts, video games, tabletop gaming, role plays, let’s plays…the list is basically endless, and they all teach various elements of storytelling.
And a lot of them overlap! You can definitely get inspiration for your novel from anime and movies and podcasts. There are still character ideas and worldbuilding concepts and structure you can gather from them.
But if you’re trying to write prose fiction, you need to learn how to express those ideas in prose fiction. And the only way to do that is by…reading and studying prose fiction.
There used to be a Thing in a lot of fanfiction that characters would “sweat-drop.” This was pretty obviously taken from anime and manga, where the little raindrop marker on a character’s head indicates…oh, I would say the closest word is probably usually chagrin. And that works in anime and manga!
It…kind of doesn’t work in prose fiction. It looks weird, only means something to a very limited subset of people, and it’s just kinda awkward. There’s other ways in prose to indicate that emotion, but it’s not described in manga the way it will be in prose, because manga isn’t prose.
If you’re watching a movie and the leitmotif starts playing in a minor key, you start anticipating something tragic will happen. It brings out mournfulness and anticipation and fear, oftentimes. But in a novel, if a character says, “It was as if minor chords started playing,” …grief isn’t really the feeling a reader gets. In prose, that same concept reads as cheeky and genre-aware and leaning on the fourth wall. It’s amusing, and even if it tells readers to anticipate a certain thing, they aren’t going to be in the same mood as they will be from hearing it. It just doesn’t translate that way.
There are other ways in prose fiction to built mournfulness and fear. And you won’t learn what they are if you don’t read it.
I had some classmates, back when I was taking a screenwriting class, who you could tell were prose fiction writers and not great at adapting to the new format, probably because they were so new to it and hadn’t ever even really read it. So we would get stage directions that would read like, “Tonkan script covers the pillar in the center of the room. The Tonkan people haven’t been seen in a thousand years and their language was lost long ago. They’re mainly known for their weaponry left behind in their ruins…”
And that’s…great, for prose fiction (it’s not because I came up with it in a minute and don’t care about it). But in screenwriting? None of that means anything and it’s a useless dump of info in the screenwriting. In screenwriting, that usually looks more like, “Tonkan script, a lost language made of sharp angles and edges, mostly squares and rectangles, covers the pillar in the center of the room. A camera pans over it. SEAN’s eyes widen at the sight.” Because that actually indicates what’s going to be on screen in the movie. That includes the relevant details to the format. The former? Not so much.
And finding time for reading can be really hard. I get that. I don’t read as much as I’d like to, either.
But it’s critical, to learn a craft, to actually engage with that craft. It has its own unique methods and techniques and secrets that you have to know to produce it well.
Maybe it’s frustrating. But creating well is hard sometimes! It’s a still that takes a lot of time and effort! It should be appreciated.

The autobot constructicons don't have any lore which means i get to write some
Today's bot is a compoent of tonkanator(look it up) the constructicon cranes have a superiority complex in both their work and their own style, anything less than perfection in their eyes deserves destruction, in fact hook and sky hook are the ones that force their teams to have the uniform color scheme they're known for
Sky hook perfered yellow for her team
Here's "autobot sky hook"

What is the origin of the Autobot combiner known as Tonkanator? Why do its components all have such similar names among each other and the ones that form Devastator? Are they Autobot clones of them made through experiments?
Dear Tonka Tough Guy,
Although the Gobots successfully saved their home reality and ushered in a new era of peace and prosperity, not all the inhabitants of Gobotron were happy with this new status quo. Soon enough, the dastardly Master Renegade escaped captivity on New Earth and soon returned to his old tricks. In time, he made contact with Zero, newly-appointed leader of a small group of fanatics who’d renounced Cy-Kill after the Renegade leader abandoned his evil ways and set up a new base of operations, working out of Magmar’s abandoned fortress on Quartex.
Armed with some unique Cybertronian schematics purloined from a distant dimension, samples of cybernucleic acid, and whatever resources they could gather, the group set about creating six new Gobots—fusions of Transformer and Gobot technology, these entirely mechanical super lifeforms possessed hand blasters and the ability to fly, but their positronic brains were sustained by an artificially-induced “spark” of life. These six Renegades—modest Motor Load, put-upon Mega Hauler, destructive Mega Dozer, manic Motormix, insecure Power Digger, and the stuck-up Skyhook—inherited much from their genetic templates, including the ability to combine into a mighty, if dim-witted, form.
Zero’s Neo-Renegades attacked the Guardians during a routine goodwill mission on Quartex. The towering Tonkanator easily outpowered Leader-1’s Courageous combiner, and neither Puzzler nor Fossilsaurus could match Tonkanator’s unbridled fury. With no other options, Leader-1 and Cy-Kill were forced into an undignified retreat to lick their wounds. Fortunately, an unexpected ally presented himself: Steamer, an ex-Renegade with a construction vehicle alternate mode, believed that he could infiltrate Zero’s temporary headquarters and turn the Tonkanator Six against their creators—if nothing else, he could repay the debt that he himself owed Leader-1 and his allies when they helped him escape the Renegades. Leader-1 agreed, doubtfully, and sent Steamer on to try and reason with Motor Load and his minions. Although Motor Load initially doubted Steamer’s message of goodwill, Zero quickly realized the true nature of Leader-1’s plan and took Steamer prisoner.
Suspended over a boiling vat of molten magma, Zero and his followers broadcast a message to Leader-1, warning him that he had two hours to surrender Quartex to the Renegades or else Steamer would perish. Salvation, however, came from an unexpected source—unable to ignore the plight of a fellow construction vehicle, Motor Load and his fellows turned on their benefactors and sent the Renegades scattering; as they freed Steamer and took off, Skyhook took a moment to dismiss the Master Renegade as an “uncharismatic bore!”
In the end, Leader-1 allowed Motor Load and his fellows to join the Guardians. Together with Steamer, they now make up the “Auto-Bots”, a unique subgroup of Go-Bots who use their construction powers to assist in the rebuilding of Gobotron.

After 37 years Devastator is having an identity crisis! Is he a Deceptacon or is he an Autobot? Is he made by Hasbro or made by Tonka? Either way Tonkanator is a Transformer to watch out for. #devastator #decepcion #autobot #hasbro #tonka #transformers #tonkanator https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj4BVMNJyNb/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

LET US GIVE TONKS!
The mighty TONKANATOR has hit shelves, and he is delightful. But did you know this is not the first time Tonka and Transformers have crossed paths? Let's go back twenty years for November 2022's Patreon-backed @tfwiki theme!
Tumblr media
Hasbro acquired Tonka in 1991. Ten years later, Tonka released the first toy in the 1-2-3 TRANSFORMERS line: the sublime RESCUE ROY! I love him. Lights, sounds, voice clips, good stuff. (Old pic)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The following year, the much smaller CHARLIE CHOPPER and POLICEMAN PETE were released, both having lights, sounds and voice clips. They also got multiple accessories, something Roy didn't!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
These molds then got redecoed and released as AIRLIFT ANDY and FIRE MARSHALL MIKE, joining Toy's firefighting force. These toys were the last of the 1-2-3s and didn't exactly get widely distributed.
The three 1-2-3 molds were lightly redecoed for the Takara "Rescue Hero Go-Bots" kids' line, which rolled these toys in with the Playskool GoGoGoBots molds.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And then… well nothing for a long time. But the Collaborative line isn't above crossing over with other Hasbro properties, thus Tonkanator, the latest iteration of the G1 Constructicon molds! These toys have a gorgeous gunmetal gray, as seen on MEGA DOZER and MEGA HAULER (6/)
Tumblr media
POWER DIGGER is the only one of the set to actually share a name with a Tonka construction vehicle toy: the 2001 Remote Control Power Digger excavator!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Just take in MOTOR LOAD (no we are not doing phrasing), MOTORMIX and SKYHOOK. And their shiny, shiny decals. Shiny, fragile decals.
Tumblr media
And, because it's nigh Thanksgiving, let's round things out with a thematically-appropriate piece from BotBots (because I'm me), namely, COLD TURKEY from the newly-released Series 6 Hunger Hubs.
If you all like what I do here and wanna help out in a small but significant way, check out my Patreon, at "gregstfwikipics".

Terapeutti sanoo et ottakaa yhteistä aikaa "Onko teillä ollut yhteistä aikaa?" No ei ole ollut Siinä on varmaan se syy kaikkeen, et ei ole ollut yhteistä aikaa No minä lähden sit järjestämään sitä Naiset on useinki vastuussa just sosiaalisest elämästä
Yöllä vieraat oli lähteny ja ne oli kattonu mua säälivästi Ja sä olit juonu tonkan viiniä ja hortoilit siinä ja hoit vittua Ja mä tajusin, et mä oon vankina täs paskaelämäs sun kaa Ja arvaa haluisinko iskeä sun pään seinään
