These are still straight up G1 designs drawn in the BW art style. i'm looking for BW designs that are inspired by G1.

You understand I'm joking, right? That's why I had that winking emoticon.

Yes. But I'm asking a genuine question. Aside from Primal and Megs' heads, did BW/BM have any G1-inspired designs?

No, not really. I ran out of examples after Primal and Megatron, so I started making jokes to stretch it out.

One could argue that Dinobot's head design took cues from G1 Starscream's head design.

What, you mean the side vents? G1 Grimlock had those two. As did a few other. They aren't a Starscream/Seeker-exclusive thing.

i really hope they are all named correctly, getting sick of slag being called snarl.

Too late. Apparently Slag is now Slug. Ugh...

I find that acceptable. I'll miss Slag, but I'm willing to accept Slug.

Gota break free and just revert to the name slag in your head. Whenever I see Arcee in TF prime, I see her as Chromia. I don't give a crap who says what about her; She's Chromia to me. I live in my own mind.

5 dinobots? so are they going g1 or all the way and have all the dinobots in this game.

cause originally it should only be 3 and not five, because grimlock, slag, sludge were

the first 3 to be and then came swoop and snarl. i hope they do a good story.. but i do

know this, if they are going to make figures then i say make grimelock be a leader size,

sludge, snarl and slag be voyager and swoop a delux.

I predict a toy of Grimlock but not the other Dinobots.

Your prediction seems valid. I second that notion.

So, you'd rather Arcee be a pink, girly chick with less backbone and no character? That's... sad.

All five Dinobots, as it should be.

That was only in the cartoon. In the Marvel comics, all five came together. Plus, this game is not G1.

Slug, not Slag.

I predict that a Grimlock toy would take a miracle, given how 50% of his dino mode just grows out of his robot mode from nothingness.

His beast mode would either be smaller by comparison. Keep in mind, within the game itself, Megatron's tank mode is much larger than his actual robot mode, and it's the same with a lot of other characters.

Say those two words out loud seperately and they sound nothing alike. Your "breakdown" of the spelling of the two words is also a poor example to use in proving your point. They are clearly two different words.

SHHHHHAAADAAAAAPPP! Last time I checked, Arcee charged into Unicron's head with the rest of them, and ran with them without fail (and defended Daniel in the show a buncha times with her own life). Theres a difference between feminine, and tom boyishness, which TF prime is obviously way more than Arcee in G1, or Animated, or shutyourface. Pretty much only seen Arcee more like TF prime arcee in the IDW comic. And what, being more of a sensitive and a non-aggresive female (who likes pink colours) means she has no backbone? Kind of offending a lot of women right there.

HOLY COW! Matt Tieger really is a Transformers fan, isn't he? The way he was talking it'd be easy to think that the Dinobots make up the whole game. If they can deliver on what they were talking about that doesn't involve cramming everything into a single 2 minutes cutscene, this game will be brilliant.

WHY THE **** ARE THEY CHANGING SLAGS NAME TO SLUG!? I'm dissapointed already. What the crap Highmoon! I'm glad all five dinobots are in the game though. They should've made the insecticons too instead of just making these big bugbots.

At least this time he isn't stealing his name from Snarl.

They can't really use slag anymore because of issues with the British language I think (I forgot exactly what, look on TFwiki though...)

"In British English, it's also slang for "slut"" There it is.

Slug makes sense though, slugging the crap out of everyone and everything. Kind of fits imo on a second glance.

Hey, I got a thing for nurse-bots, okay? And the last time I trusted Swindle, I ended up with these three.

nursebots...well you cant go wrong there i guess.....however is she's packin a turbocharged plasma cannon and can kick aft then im all for it too lol

and benders don't count Mindvvipe lol

back on topic though, it is nice to see that the people behind the games are indeed into transformers in a good way...wait.. last time we heard that was when the first shots of the live action movie came out...is this a reoccurring bad dream?? oh wait no its not because WFC was freakin awesome....

ahem...

So glad they decided to bring back all 5 Dinobots. 3 just isn't enough!

Well, I'm just mad at the fact that they changed slags name. Did Britain really have a problem with his name? I don't really know. I have to check. But if not, then there wouldn't be a reason to change it

personally - being a brit (well a mad scotsman) i have no problem with it... but, yes there is a but... its all down to the political correct brigade - yes those annoying do-gooders that are out to make life a hellalot difficult for the rest of us...

so its them who would have forced the change...

...well that and the "mummy what does that mean?" all the time

Here in Australia "slag" is slang for "slut" too but, as a kid growing up, I never associated it with that. "Slag" was always "melted metal" to me (which Slag was perfectly named for). It's only as an adult that I think "slag" as a euphemism for "slut" and even then I'd be more inclined to think "melted metal" (though it would depend on the context that is was being used).

Having said that, I did take offence to the name "Spaz".
