Really this guy? I know what he has done: the question, and did some star trek characters,
so I have a hard time picturing this guy voicing ratchet he doesn't sound like a ratchet
but maybe he will alter is voice for the show or something.

Transformers : Animated was such a lame name IMO(Because it states the obvious) that
Transformers : Prime seems almost thought out. :p

I'll give you MSHS, I've seen it, it's terrible.

Batman: The Brave And The Bold, however...not your simple kid's show.

It's smart, the humor and jokes are at times aimed at older members of the audience, and there have been some great homages. In fact there was an episode that hearkened back to the original Looney Tunes cartoons of the 40s/50s.

Plus they have no problem exploring serious topics including death.

It's no Batman The Animated Series, but it's a fun and fresh take with more to offer than you'd think.

Wasn't in the last months CC newsletter a hint that the WFC toys could be based on a cartoon as well as the comp. game?

If I connect the dots, the conclusion is: this could be a War Within-time story when Optimus takes the matrix and becomes Prime.

Cool, I really dig Jeffrey Combs, i'm a huge B-movie & horror fanatic. He's one of my favorites, just below Bruce Campbell & Malcolm McDowell. He could do a good Ratchet & one of his co-stars from Feardotcom, Stephen Rea would do great to voice a decepticon scientist/ torturer(you need to hear this guy talk, it's just creepy as all get out.) As for seeing the show on-air, I don't think i'm going to buy more channels just to get one channel to watch one show. I might watch 2 1/2 hours of tv a week at best, so i'll just catch an HDTV rip torrent or find it on Youtube/BlazinAnime or something like that. The name could be worked on, but Transformers: Prime is better than Transformers: Destruction Of My Wallet.

I do as well. I loved him in The 4400 (what ever happened to that show? I guess it got cancelled) and in The Frighteners as well. Based upon his performances in these projects, I think he will be perfect to voice Ratchet.

I'm glad he's going to be in it. I always liked him as Weyoun and Brunt on DS9. Shran on Enterprise was pretty good too. But he totally rocked it as the Question. The Question was the best character on Justice League: Unlimited.
As for everyone who is already saying the cartoon is going to suck just by it's name... Remember how everyone freaked when we saw the first images of Transformers: Animated? Think about how cool that turned out to be.

I like Jeffrey Combs. Mostly remember him from his Star Trek appearances (Weyoun FTW!) and depending on what kind of Ratchet the new show's gonna have, he may fit right in. I remember similar speculation over several Animated casting choices, too. (ex. "Megatron as Prime? WTF?!")
I'm just hoping that, though undoubtedly aimed at children, the show is handled by someone with knowledge of the brand and it's fans, willing to thrown in that little extra for us old schoolers (like Animated had)

As for the title "Prime" It's a bit bland, but probably very topical. Only time will tell.
