However can anyone confirm or deny this is the season 3 as well as the mini movie?
From the price point, it seems to be but nothing else to confirm this by.
Anyone have any other info?

This is the movie. Just the movie. Season 3 was not called "Predacons Rising".triKlops wrote:I have been looking forward to getting my hands on this set,

I guess since there were Mini-cons, this seems okay, but is a more difficult pill to swallow.

The Decepticons cloned a Predacon from fossilized remains. The Predacon soon evolved to the point of transformational capability. In fear of a Predacon revolution, the Decepticons destroyed the remaining Predacon clones in breeding and framed the Autobots, leaving the evolved Predaking at odds with the Autobots and of Decepticon allegience.
Later, Predaking learned the truth, and was exiled from Decepticon responsibility.

Also, the original Predacons predated the Decepticons in this continuity, as they were a prehistoric race of Cybertronian wildlife that existed long before the regular Cybertronian race did.PrymeStriker wrote:Joetx wrote:So despite having a "-con" suffix, Predacons aren't Decepticons?

There's also the bit about the Predacons being their own unique race, whereas the Decepticons are just ordinary Cybertronians having taken a political/militaristic faction name of their own.
In a way, the Predacons are to the Decepticons as dinosaurs are to the human members of Al Qaeda.

I saw that one I meant another one I should have been more specific.
Has there been a HD version Of that teaser by chance?

It's kinda weird seeing a trailer for Prime done in Movie styling.
Cannot wait.

Sounded more like John Noble to me, which would make sense seeing as that's who voiced him in season 1.

Here you go people, for those who can't watch it on IMDb it looks like Megatron is idd now Galvatron. This looks awesome

Yeah, Darksteel is DEFINITELY green & blue, which means they're using Grimwing's model. I also see red & orange. Strange. I wonder if we're getting any new characters on top of these Predacons?

PrymeStriker wrote:I wonder if we're getting any new characters on top of these Predacons?
I certainly hope so. But the brief synopsis we were first given a month back made it clear when it said "Predaking, joined by two more Predacons".
I still refuse to believe that one of these is Vertebreak.
Posted by Sabrblade on August 12th, 2013 @ 11:42am CDT
You know, that, combined with Dark Energon pretty much being akin to Angolmois, shows just how much of this series the makers think they're doing is original, when a lot of it has been done before to their unawares.Mindmaster wrote:So I just had this thought.

I'm pretty sure one is meant to be Sky Lynx/Skystalker/Backbite. I don't know where the idea he's meant to be Vertebreak came from.

But, they're just Darksteel and Skylynx.
However, from the trailer we saw at SDCC, there might be a legion of Terrorcon Predacon generics as well.

Mind. Blown.
Oh, so it's actually Skylynx, not Vertebreak? Thank God. I can believe Skylynx!
Though I could've sworn one of the officials at SDCC said it was Vertebreak.

Simple. She's stuck on one of Cybertron's moons, sucking the energy away from her Insecticon hordes to sustain herself.

well, that makes it even better now that she's much closer to cybertron! they could definitely craft some ill new stories around her and the insecticons.

So we sit thru the whole "Beast Hunters" season only to find out the eponymous Beasts don't really do anything until this movie, only to find out Unicron and an undead Megatron are basically going to hijack it.
Posted by Sabrblade on August 12th, 2013 @ 3:14pm CDT
What's more is that, of the new named Predacons we're getting, the total amount of them will be a mere two of them.Noideaforaname wrote:That's a very Movie-esque trailer.

Meanwhile, Sanjou Gattai Transformers Go! continues to deliver on its use of Predacon numbers, having had a total of ten Predacons in just three episodes.
