Big Angry Trev!

Masters of the Universe was massive in the 80’s, one of the most popular cartoons for a while, at least with little boys.  There was a massive line up of both good guys and bad guys who, what a coincidence, all had toys that you could go and buy.  And the protagonist – He-Man, had about the most masculine name you could think of – now there was a guy who owned his pronouns. Ah, memories The…

Transformers Timelines, it used to be retools of mainline toys by the Official Collectors Club until it went defunct.  But in recent years Hasbro has brought it back, creating all new moulds of the most popular characters, often with their altmodes based on different periods in time.  The first round we got trains, cannons and planes from the early 20th century.  This time we are going back to…

It’s always a pleasure to be able to host local artists on The Big DJ Trev Show, and an honour to have them join us live on the air.  And this week we are lucky to have the talented Deih Hudson joining us with his eclectic brand of music. Deih, who has his thumb in many pies ranging from folk music to teaching jujitsu, will be joining us live on Thursday the 18th of June from 6 to 9pm on…

We all get stressed from time to time.  Whether that be from being a radio star and internationally renowned collector, or whatever stresses out the common people in their little lives (I don’t know what it is you people do.  Is it filing? Probably something to do with filing).  So it’s important to take some time to give yourself a psychic tune-up and grease the wheels of your own consciousness…

For those of us into Transformers Lore, as well as us appreciative of getting figures for characters that haven’t had a toy yet (instead of yet another Optimus or Bumblebee), the Age of the Primes toyline has been very promising thus far.  In particular getting toys of the Original 13 Primes, the first 13 ever Transformers (unless you count Primus and Unicron themselves).  And today we are…

It’s funny that Action Masters – non-transforming Transformers – essentially spelled the end of the Generation One Transformers line back in the late 1980’s, but here we are over thirty years later and figures of that ilk are now more popular than ever!  So today we look at Yolopark’s version of the feared leader of the Decepticon Justice Division – Tarn. This is a model kit, but fret not if you…

As anyone who follows my meat obsession knows, I’m a sucker for anything that has more than one animal in it.  Essentially take half a farmyard and put it on the one plate and you’ve got me hooked.  So naturally I jumped  at the chance when I saw a dish like this at our favourite place to go for the monthly Pub Quiz (we even came 2nd last night!).  So may I present The Globe’s Grilled Steak…

I’ve always been a bit of a zombie officiando with lots of books of the genre adorning my shelves and a lot of DVD’s (yes, they still exist) in my cabinet.  But I was unaware of the 28 Days Later franchise. So when by mate Matt asked to go see 28 Years Later at the cinema, it required me to go back and watch the first two movies.  While they were interesting enough, neither really wowed me and I…

Transformers One has been and gone but the toys are still trickling out.  Unlike the first live-action movie where the shelves were squashed with figures months before the film hit the cinemas, there hasn’t been a lot from Transformers One thus far to get. https://www.bigangrytrev.com/movie-review-transformers-one/ So I was very happy to see Sentinel Prime make his Transformers Studio Series…

I often have various items donated to the Transformatorium.  Sometimes it’s people’s old toys they don’t want anymore, sometimes its merchansie from companies looking for some advertising, and sometimes it’s special items from other collectors who want to see their Transformer stuff go to a good home and take it’s place in one of the worlds biggest collections. Surprise package from…

A couple of years ago I ran the Greatest 100 Songs of All Time competition on my radio show – The Big DJ Trev Show on KRR.fm. As something a bit different, I thought that maybe I could do the same, using music exclusively from the 9 Transformers Movies from the last 39 years. Transformer Movies – all 9 ranked from Worst to Best! However as I begin to list them, the fully enormity of the music…

This question comes from Maddy in Melbourne: Dear BigFarmerTrev, I have had many breeds of hens since starting my hen owning journey. The Belgian Duccles are my favourites. I decided that if I continue with hen ownership it will only be Belgians. They’re a true bantam, easy to care for, quirky, loveable and cute!  I presently have 4 girls , 2 of which are Belgians and getting on in years. I…

The time is almost upon us once again, that time that kids love and parents worry about the welfare of their wallets – The Rylstone-Kandos Show. And as an extra special treat, once again everyones favorite radio personality will be on hand and broadcasting LIVE! Big DJ Trev broadcasting at the 2024 show That’s right, along with many other KRR.fm presenters, Big DJ Trev will be…

And so the great cataloguing of my extensive collection continues, Hasbro went all out when the Transformers reached it’s 30th anniversary of the franchise.  By this time Transformers popularity was at an all-time high, with successful movies, cartoons, toylines, video games and comics aplenty – enough to appease even the most die hard fan. To celebrate this success, Hasbro launches the Thrilling…

Please note: This ranking does not take into account the two Japanese movies based on the various Japanese Transformers animated series.  Maybe (if I can find a place to watch them online) they will be included at a future date.  It covers only the 9 Transformers movies that saw a western cinematic release. Transformers One has finished up in theatres, it being the second animated Transformers…

Which bots can be traced back to which Primes? The Original 13 Primes has been part of the Transformers mythos for quite a while now.  Be it in the Aligned Continuity, the Movieverse, the Power of The Primes Trilogy, or even retroactively into G1 via the IDW Comics, the idea that Primus originally created 13 Primes in order to battle Unicron has become an established part of Transformers…

Ever have a beloved band stop touring and headlining before you had a chance to see them? For me there are quite a few.   Didn’t used to earn much money as a security guard when I was young, and what shows I did manage to save up for were touring comedians.  Oh I’ve got to see a few Aussie acts over the years such as Jon Butler Trio, Josh Pyke, Silverchair & Powderfinger and a few years ago Paul…
