NYCC 2012 Coverage: Transformers Prime Season 3 "Beast Hunters" Clip

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.

Starscream's too.

Hmm, Megatron, Soundwave, Starscream, Knock Out, Shockwave....where's Dreadwing?

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

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.

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.

I just hope Dreadwing isn't dead.

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.

Shockwave.... Nice!

Bet they did it so it could be easily implemented into the toy

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

Why would they make Prediking so big in the show. We all know the toy is not going to be at all close to this scale, so why not just make him the same size as Megatron. Plus if this takes place on Cybertron why did Shockwave bridge to where Megatron is.
