Huh. Interesting. I'll continue watching the show and may pick up a few of the ensuing toys if they look really cool, but Beasts aren't really my thing, so unless this gives Hasbro an excuse to release all the toys we haven't seen yet, this will save me some money for other things.

The "dragon" footage reminds me a lot of the revelation of Transmetal 2 Dinobot from Beast Wars.

So is this the culmination of Shockwave's research/experimentation?

We don't know yet. Although, I wouldn't be surprised. I've predicted Shockwave's return in the season finale for about 3 weeks now, give or take.

I don't remember it being confirmed. When was that?

We've just uploaded the Transformers Prime season three "Beast Hunters" clip that was shown during the NYCC 2012 Hasbro panel. Shockwave presents his ultimate Autobot huntet, Predaking, to Megatron, Starscream, and company! Enjoy the clip embedded below:

Well, now we know Starscream re-joins the Decepticons in Season 2 Episode 24. So happy.
Megatron's face when he sees Predaking is priceless.

So Shockwave made Predaking. Nice! I hope Dreadwing isn't dead...

I know. He's the only one missing from the group.

So 1) The Decepticons are set up someplace pretty nice. Fits with the "Things won't end well for the Autobots" we've been hearing about.
And 2) Starscream seems to be permanently back in. Which ... god damn it. Hopefully the execution and consequences justify it, because I already fear they're going to go the way of MECH and the kids and just throw away a season's worth of build-up.
Overall a positive development, though. This series started with such promise, I'd really like to see some major development bring it out of its recent rut.

Probably Cybertron

We knew that Starscream was going to attempt to join the Decepticons, much to Dreadwing's dismay. We thought he was going to offer Red Energon, but since Starscream has an Omega Key, that will probably be what he offers to Megatron in hopes to regain his place in the ranks in return.
I hope this isn't why Dreadwing is missing. Either he's the captain of the Decepticon Outpost on Earth or Starscream killed him among other possibilities.

Looks cool!
People should keep in mind that this cooouuuuld be a flashback. It'd explain Shockwave's return, Starscream's presence and Dreadwing's absence.

Except in Episode 50, Starscream will attempt to re-join the Decepticons by bargaining one of the Omega Keys. That could explain Starscream's presence.
Shockwave was never officially killed off, and therefore his presence as a new member to the team is not off limits
However, I could deal with this scene being a flashback as to maybe how the Predacons ended up on Earth. Remember, the Rage of Dinobots comic bridges the 2nd and 3rd seasons. Just don't let the whole damn season be a flashback.

The flashback idea is a good one. If it's true, then it's a pretty clever move by Hasbro. Showing a look ahead clip that's actually from the past. I love the way Shockwave looks. Would love to have a Prime toy for him.

Meh....Now tell me how they're going to hide that from the humans... Does it transform into a Starbucks...
Seriously why so psyched?
The Autobots are going to miraculously kill at least one of these creatures per episode while still meeting their 20 to 30 Decepticon Drone quota at that...
Come on Hasbro give us another show already! Or at least some direct to video movies based off the IDW comics.

Why yes, isn't that obvious?
The Steven Melching interview said this show is gonna have a new setting for season 3. If it leaves Earth, no more disguises. If it doesn't, humanity's obviously gonna get a rude wake up call.

Doesn't sound like Cybertron Scourge's toy roar to me.
