I am looking foward to Prime it seems strong and the storyline seems interesting also. I assume Prime is the plot of the series what it means to be a Prime and how one becomes a Prime.

When I 1st heard of Prime, I though it was going to be about the legacy of the Primes like in ROTF about the past history of the Primes.

This wont be the final teams, but you know as the show goes on both teams will add in more and more new characters either as cameo's or a full fledge members of that team.

So as Prime goes on expect no diffrence with more additional transformers to be added in.

I caculated Prime with 65 episodes and I rounded Prime to be about 3 seasons in all.

Dont expect all episodes to be aired at once such as season 1 to be airing 26 episodes expect to be divided up such as animated with cliff-hanger episodes or double part ones like animated had such as Prt. 1 & Prt. 2

Season 1 prt 1. = 13 episodes one half then Season 1 prt. 2 will show the remainder of the 13 episodes then season 2 will follow up later on.

So far the humans arent bothering me but I have yet to hear or see them in action so I will have to watch the intro to Prime to judge my for myself.

Prime looks sweet and I am digging the bots and thier Robotic modes cant wait to see them in action and see thier abilities.

I hope that if Prime does well in ratings it will stick around but then again Animated done well also but it got the axe.

My guess on Prime's airdate sometime in Novemeber or early Decemeber.

they look like a hybrid of Gundam seed with a hint of animated I like it. Eradicon now that's a cool name.
Starscream looks cool even if he turns into the wrong jet should be an F-15 not a F-16 oh well hopefully we'll see some toys soon

[NuclearConvoy]

It would be nice if we got some toys from this show. The nice thing about the "Generations" label is that, in theory, they could squeeze any character into it so that might be how we see some Prime characters released eventually, no?


Now if only I could actually keep up with the collecting I already want to do without factoring in new lines and sublines in those lines etc.

[Bouncy X]

so how come some images look like full on CGI animation while others look like cel shaded CGI like on Futurama? which is the final style used?

[Megatron Wolf]

Soundwaves a drone? Are you fraking kidding me!? That better be a misprint. I never thought in a million years that hasbro would be able to make anything more hideous than the movie & animated designs, clearly i was wrong. They managed to accomplished it by combining the two. Hopefully they look better on screen, i doubt it though. Ill say it once again, the more i see the less interested i get. Im about at the point where im not going to care abut this show at all. Why couldnt we just get a War for Cybertron (i still say the game has nothing to do with tf prime) show or the transtech series that we never got? At least i can still look forward to the 2nd WFC game and alot of awesome figures.

[Liftgate]

Egh. Once again Megatron just turns into a 'thing'. :-\ I'd settle for a regular old jet at this point.

[Flashwave]

Okay guys, slow down with the soundwave and tenticles. You know, tenticles, thse things he used in TF2 to go all "You will be assimilated, resistance is futile" on that satillite?

Deplyers: cause, those things in his chest don't turn into Mini Casssettes, so why call them Cassetticons?

And to think, when we heard Soundwave in Bay everyone liked the idea of a Predator Soundwave... drone PLANE ALT Because I wanted to help echo what people have said beofe and not been heard.

Anyone else getting a Cybertron series vibe from SW's head?

Me? I like Bulkhead, he still needs legs between his hips anf feet, but he's getting there, and big chinned or not, it looks "right"

Prime's alt? Not so much. Looks more like an artist's guide than the final thing.

Meg's ship mode wins. He;s got a true space ship, not spindly ice thingy. And I love the forward Deflector Dish, sure works for a fusin cannon for me, wishing we had a fig for that. (Or Maurader Megs) Just wish I coukd put my finger on what he looked like. Maybe a ship from Galactica, I didn;t watch enough to catch hold, maybe Trek, but I don't think so.

Eradicon has Lockdown's face, or is that Lockdown by the screen (old news I missed I bet)

[griftimus prime]

garbage.

i cant wait to see how bulkhead walks.

[TFIta369]

They look really weird and different but who knows how they might end up.
I guess that´s why they did´nt plan toys for this line.

[First-Aid]

It just occurred to me what Megatron's alt mode reminds me of...it kinda has the shape of a Ferengi cruiser!

[Stockade]

Nice to see all the characters in the new cartoons, but why OH GOD why! did they have to stick Bulkhead in there!! He looks too much like TFA!! I hope they kill him off or something.

[ArmadaPrime]

Uhh.. why is it, to me, that optimus primes truck mode appears to have been rendered on something similar to gooogle sketch up?
Also, does arcee throw the motrorbike off and uncurl from a little ball???
The whole toyline question, i think that if they are, they will throw it in generations as a dumping ground.

[mecha-man]

But Bulkhead's actually kind of sensitive -- as Miko learns when she bonds with him.

Bonding? Do they mean binary bonding? I guess it would fit with the advantage they claim the humans give the Autobots.

[prmlove1]

Alright, it's dumb question time. I have regular Cable (TWC) and I am sure this channel is under digital cable so I am set for an upgrade. The only issue is that there is no Hub channel listed now or later on the channel list. Is this because Dicovery kids which is a current channel will turn into The Hub on October 11th or will there be another channel entirely?

[Screamfleet]

I'm going to plead the Bambi on this one.

If you dont have anything nice to say, dont say anything at all.

[Pyrostrata]

Not liking what I am seeing. Not one bit.








Note: I also said the same about Animated when I saw the pre-lim art and I ended up loving the show. Right proper judgment will be offered once I see it.

[Noideaforaname]

"Team Prime" needs human help more than ever.

This DEMANDS more HA figures!

[NuclearConvoy]

It just occurred to me what Megatron's alt mode reminds me of...it kinda has the shape of a Ferengi cruiser!

I KNEW it reminded me of something! Thank you!

[Dead Metal]

Wow, Starscream and Soundwave look ... like ... Neon Genesis robots just a little odder.

Oh well I hated Animated's designs when I saw the first crappy pictures and ended up loving it in the end, I'm waiting for animation before I make any judgement other than
HOLY SH*T BULKHEAD IS AWESOME!

[zenosaurus_x]

I'm a bit torn, for one thing, I like that they're movie inspired but then they go totally off with StarScream's design and then...SoundWave? Drone? WHAT? That's not superior(worst joke I could have made <_>)....

[Dorca]

Starscream looks like a woman. Look at those robot hips.

[GEEWUN]

Starscream looks like a woman. Look at those robot hips.

Funny, does it turn you "on"?

[Red 50]

There's only one thing that I don't like about Bulkhead's design:

His hands and legs should be bigger for his size of body! (That was the one thing that bothered me about TFA Bulkhead, too.)

otherwise, he is awesome.

[Red 50]

Starscream looks like a woman. Look at those robot hips.

He wouldn't be thet first Starscream to be so...

TFA also had one and a real female Starsream (Slipstream)

Figured that female looked Starscream
But then suddenly he kissed Slipstream

[sudelaya]

Amazing!
