IT'S TIME

THE SUPERB OWL IS HERE

Another owl come and gone, another year in which I've managed to survive, but only barely.

[shimano-futoshi]

I've followed you for a year and I have never felt more glad of my choice.

Now SIGN ME UP FOR THE SHIMAWARDS PROGRAM OR PUT ME IN THE FAMILY

Very well! Due to whelming demand, we here at shimano-futoshi(tm) are now introducing:

“ShimAwards”!

These awards are unlocked by loyal Shimano Fans, such as yourself, as you follow this great and wonderful blog! 

“Wait! I don’t have to do anything?!” I hear you say!

And that’s right! Just follow shimano-futoshi on the Tumblr website and reap the benefits of the brand new “ShimAwards” programme! 

Starting at Tier 1 (One year) you receive a free shout out from Shimano on this very blog!!! Oh my Shgod! Here he is now!

Wow! Thanks, Shimano, for taking time out of your day to give our good friend -ENTER NAME HERE- a cool shout out! Weird username though. 

Moving on to Tier 2 (Two years) you receive a free* cap from the Shimano Merch Store for you to show your loyalty off for all to see! There are three designs so far, but more are on the way! 

My favourite is “HHRRRHHGNRGHGGRRHNRHHGNNG”! Any ideas for another cap? Send your suggestions to [REDACTED]! We’re always open to suggestions from our fans! :)

And, finally, moving up to Tier 3 (Three years) you receive a free, some expenses paid** trip to Sotenbori to meet Shimano himself!!! While there you will spend some of a day with the Big Man Himself! With a complimentary photo with him at the end, too, of course!

(ARTIST’S IMPRESSION NOT INDICATIVE OF FINAL PRODUCT)

Wow! All that for practically nothing! You can’t say we’re not generous here at shimano-futoshi now! We treat our loyal Shimano Fans well, and you’re well on your way to being one of our best, -ENTER NAME HERE-! 

From the bottom of my sheart (shimano heart), thank you for your support over this last year! And here’s to many more! 

*Postage and packaging not included.

**Peanuts on the flight over will be paid for in full by the Shimano Family. If the Tier 3 Shimano Fan happens to be allergic to peanuts, the Shimano Fan will be offered a complimentary bottle of water courtesy of the Shimano Family as replacement.

Y'all got something like werewolves in cybertronian fiction? Its something I need in my life.

We have spark eaters, which fulfill both the “change into something unpleasant” and “something hungry and feral is after you” aspects. We also have stories of bots who take techno-organic/animal modes and go wild, but those aren’t works of fiction -- that’s a real phenomenon. Just ask Filch.

Cybertronians, as you might expect, aren’t frightened by the idea of transformation in and of itself. There’s got to be something else in the mix to properly scare us.
