But can it seperate into three bleepin' airborne Minicons?

Pfft. 'Course not, silly. Why would it do such a thing?

Sarcasm, my dear Sabrblade.

I jest.

Though, 'tis not a Minicon-based sword this time, but a Matrix-based sword. Twas forged by Solus Prime from the heart of a star, according to myth. Another myth tells of it being created from three bots to forge it, but this would likely be irreversible given the final product's design (unless all three of them were very thin blade-like bots).

Given that the freakin' badass Arms Micron sword Is made of three pretty thin blade-like Minicons, you never know.

So stoked! I'm buying the Dr Wu sword after seeing this promo.

The Arms Micron Star Saber is formed by one of Optimus' arm guns, one of Bumblebee's twin arm blasters, and one of Ratchet's arm blades, all combined Power Rangers weapon style. I'm pretty sure that this is a different Star Saber than the one formed by their weaponized body parts.

The Star Saber I showed a pic of is the one that this one's meant to be.

[BATTOUSAIXD]

You can't go wrong with a "Sword in the Stone" and Transformers! Looks like it will be a good episode.

I tell ya' the more I watch Smokescreen the more he reminds me of Hotrod!

I agree! Ever since I first saw Smokescreen that was my thought! He even has the same crest that goes up his head that Prime has!

Five bucks says he poofs into Rodimus Prime.

Sorry, that title's already gonna be taken by Hot Shot.

Hasbro already made an Aligned Rodimus, but they named him "Hot Shot" so they could show how he becomes Rodimus.

At best, Smokescreen is the "Cheetor" of the group.

100 bucks says he's not.



I win.

Anyone else notice how when Megatron commands the Vehicons (next to the driller) they barely reach meg's crotch? It was almost like they used the Cyberverse to Voyager scale.

But then the vehicons are the same height as Smokescreen in the next scene, and the Smokescreen-to-Megs size ratio is about a Deluxe to Voyager... as seen with other cons... The 1st signs of scale issues...

Why do I keep forgetting this, I'll never know.

Miners may be smaller. Though scale in Transformers, like everything else in sci-fi, is subject to variances depending on circumstances.

[Sabrblade]

Or it might just be an animation goof.

I stand by my original statement.

Because Smokescreen doesn't know **** about Earth. There's a reason Jack gave Smokey a tour. Jack's going to show the new guy the ropes, best assumption given.

Although, this discussion is rather old by this point. Last we spoke of this was, what, a week ago? Because we all pretty much agree on this concept.

Sorry it took me so long to get back to this, I didn't get the notification until recently for some reason.

I agree that Smokescreen needs to be shown the ropes, I was just upset that Jack is all of a sudden switched to SS as a new partner, and RC get left human-less (though she might not mind that much). I'm too used to seeing those two together, so it'll be a little while before I like the new pairing, especially since I thought the Jack/RC combo worked really well.

Also, am I the only one hoping that CyLAS (Cybernetic Life form Augmented by Symbiosis. I think.) makes a return? It's almost like the Daniel/Arcee fusion from The Rebirth eps of the old series (shame that they only made those three eps for Season 4, I wanted to see more of Fort Max), but evil.

I must admit, I didn't start out thinking I would like this series, but it's definitely grown on me.

I don't see it being a permanent switcheroo. Once Smokescreen's got himself into the perfect position rather than "rookie," Jack will most likely go back to Arcee (that is, if he wants to).

And again, not every 'bot needs a partner. Optimus & Ratchet are doing fine without ones.

I'm not. I hope they use Cylas' remains to rebuild Breakdown into a new body. I've been aiming at a camo-green bulldozer with the name "Landmine."

True, but they didn't have partners in the first place. This thing with Jack and Smoke Screen is most likely going to last for a while, after which I sincerely hope he goes back with Arcee. Hell, I hope he still goes on missions with her, though I doubt they'll have that in the series.

~laughs~ I wouldn't mind seeing that as a toy, myself, but I don't think they'll do that. Breakdown's spark is extinguished, remember? With CyLAS there, it's more like a "Same house, new tenant" scenario.

We're just a few minutes away from tonight's all new episode of Transformes Prime "Legacy", and we have a couple of last minute promo images courtesy of Comics Online.

While Jack pairs off with a new Autobot partner, Megatron tries to keep Optimus from discovering the existence of a legendary weapon of the Primes, which could turn the tide of the war.

[Mindmaster]

Megatron's face when Prime pulled the classic "I'm-going-to-slice-this-rock-coming-right-at-me" trick... Priceless! I want that face as my avatar.

[BATTOUSAIXD]

Good episode!

[TransFunctional]

I want that face as my avatar.

I agree! That was a total "....oh ****" moment. I'm an Autobot (a Wrecker to be specific), but I still wouldn't mind having that as an avatar for some forums.

After this episode, that's doubtful. Especially once Arcee get through "talking" about the situation with Jack - and, perhaps, telling his mother what happened.

Especially since this series' motto is "When we kill a character, they stay dead.

"Unless we bring them back with the power of Dark Energon, then they stay living. Unless they're a zombie, then we only bring them back for one episode. Unless it's a flashback, in which case it's for more than one."
