I haven't been watching Rescue Bots, I watched the first episode and it was cute but definitely aimed at the younger end of the fandom and I just couldnt get into it. However, I think having two TF cartoons running simultaneously geared at two different age groups is a FANTASTIC idea for Transformers, *especially* if they crossover from time to time. It seems like the perfect way to bring over Rescue Bots viewers who are starting to get "too old" for the show. "Too old" for Rescue Bots is a misleading term (I'm all for older fans watching and enjoying Rescue Bots, I'm referring largely to the target audience). The point is that now children are not "too old" for Rescue Bots, they are "old enough" for TF:Prime. Having Bumblebee show up in Rescue Bots, where he will presumably at least mention his life and friends in Nevada will introduce children to the expanded TF universe and lead them straight into being TF:Prime viewers. Especially if Bumblebee shows up on Rescue Bots more than just this once. It introduces children to the idea of a story-within-a-story, Rescue Bots' small town within the larger world seen in TF:Prime. Of course, it also teaches the difference between the battle (Rescue Bots) and the war (TF:Prime).
Also, now we need Rescue Bots characters to cameo on TF:Prime.

Oh, and uh hi Bumblebee.
This sounds exciting and it MAY help pinpoint how closely tied Prime and Rescue Bots are.
Now why would Bee be in Griffin Rock? One logical answer might be escorting Raf. It is exactly the kind place that would host a science competition/exhibition that Raf would like to be a part of.
I could see Raf rolling into base with Bee. Jumping out and declaring that he had won first prize in the state science quiz/competition/essay contest and he was going to compete in the nationals. And where are they being held? Oh some little town on the East Coast called Griffin Rock. Cue Optimus to raise one optic ridge in surprise.
Pure speculation of course. The producers might not want to tie them too closely at this point.
But I be Raf would get along real good with Cody and Frankie. .....

Oh snap! Just thought of something! While I'm not at all expecting this to happen, what if this meteor is related to the Dark Energon asteroid from the upcoming TF: Prime video game, which itself take place during season 2 of Prime?

Yeeessss, this is possible, most distinctly a possibility. However the description makes it sound like he just happened to be there when the meteor strikes. Granted both Prime and RB have shown themselves experts at diverting hints.

That aside, though, I'm really excited for the episode. Rescue Bots makes this little Prime hiatus nothing. RB fills the gap well.

It'll be interesting to see how they handle Bumblebee in this series, especially since the two share a (loose) continuity, and BB can't talk.

Didn't they allude to something like this in "Alien Invasion of Griffin Rock?"

I think Chase was alluding to the classic horror film The Blob in that episode.Archanubis wrote:Didn't they allude to something like this in "Alien Invasion of Griffin Rock?"

I just find it interesting they reference that movie, then do an episode with a similar plot to said movie.

No, this is TF: Prime's BB.

This is going to be the first time he shows up. It's (the closest thing we've gotten so far to) a full on crossover between TF: Prime and TF: Rescue Bots.Doubledealer93 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Crossover.

Wonder if we'll get any of the kids with him. Or for that matter, a cameo from another Prime bot.

It's official, Bumblebee has taken over the Transformers franchise, but it's still cool to see a crossover.

Something tells me the "ghosts" will be something akin to what you see in a Scooby-Doo episode. Aside from Cybertronian mythology, Prime and Rescue Bots have both steered clear of the supernatual.

About as supernatural as the Changelings from DS9.

I mean, come on, the episodes that led up to Dr. Morocco's appearance were incredible. Several episodes that pieced together into an overarching plot that culminated in a great two-part event. And what have we gotten since that high point? Fillers.
Don't get me wrong, some of them have been fun and great, but... they're still fillers. As great as they were, they haven't amounted to anything. I don't want this show to just be random filler after filler with ill nutritional value.
Episodes 10-13 really set the bar high in terms of storytelling and development, and I don't want that to be this show's only moment of above and beyond greatness. If they wanted this show to be just random fun and nothing too significant, then they shouldn't have raised our expectations with such a great storyline so early into the series with nothing as good to follow through afterward. In fact, if that arc was meant to be the highest point, then they should have saved that story arc for the end of the season instead of having it come halfway through.

Remind me again, Griffin Rock is supposed to be in *Maine,* right? Considering everything that goes on, it's more like it's in Washington State.
