Whats going on with Primes mouth? Whole area looks detail free.

I'm absolutely stunned and more than disappointed if that is the look they chose to go with for Prime in this new series. I know it is silly to base my entire judgement off of just a brief clip but if that is what they chose to place in their clip for a representation of Optimus, these guys have truly screwed the pooch on this new series. I'll take Animated over this any day. :BANG_HEAD:

Oh wow, looks like iRobot stole Prime's helmet.

You're right.

It is silly.

Guys, calm down. The video quality is pretty low, and the actual series will probably look a lot different. Don't worry, be happy.

Hard to see much, but I love the metal texture, and as long as he gets a facemask it should be pretty good.

I wish I would have paid more attention to it on TV, now let's just hope we get a higher quality (and higher sound) video on Youtube soon. From what I saw, it still looks very rough, better than the last clip, but still rough. The most noticable is Prime's face, but the rest does too.
I'm happy it wasn't more Bumblebee though, he's getting way too much screentime, considering the others have got a few seconds to no time to be featured. :BANG_HEAD:

Prime's gone for BOTOX. Me no likey.

God, this is getting ridiculous... Optimus has had a mouth for the past 4-5 years now. I mean, Master Chief doesn't have a mouth (well, technically he does, but you know what I mean), and everyone's content with that. Drop. The. Dang. Mouth. Bit. Already. :-x

Oh that's Prime, damn the first 3 times I thought that was Sidewsipe. :lol:

Oh well I got used to Movie and Animated Prime's mouth.

Looks Awesome!I love it!

I really like how solid this looks.

Hmm.. not a big fan of the style they chose. Prime's whole face, not just his mouth, seems to be blank, smooth and featureless. Like a stereotypical alien wearing a Prime helmet.

Actually Botox might help, it looks like someone tore off his face leaving just eyes and a mouth slit.

OPTIMUS LOOKS LIKE ASS! It was cool in the movies and Animated to give him a mouth, but here, dear God! He litterally looks like putrid ass!

And the fans thought Movie Prime's mouth was bad...

I really hate Prime with a mouth. I can understand it for the movies but for a cartoon. I just really hate that. Give him a damn face plate.

by **Bouncy X** » Sun Oct 10, 2010 1:22 pm

the mouth looks terrible wow. its like he has the faceplate on but then there's a tiny little hole in the middle that bends to form his mouth. lol if they were that intent on keeping the mouth angle, they should have just done like the movies or Animated and gave him a proper one. this just looks weeeeird.

anyway i do hope to hear news about whether or not this airs in canada. we STILL havent had the new Futurama season and its coming on dvd/blu in december. lol

by **Ultra Markus** » Sun Oct 10, 2010 1:23 pm

i think the combination of animated with movie-verse makes it interesting besides
we need to keep the franchise alive for as long as possible so any cool new idea is
very much needed for all fans and for those who do nothing but complain about anything
that is different, fear change. that is what transformers is all about the ability to
evolve and change into new ideas

by **Sky-Quake** » Sun Oct 10, 2010 1:42 pm

judging from the comments Prime looks like crap so maybe I don't want to see the video after all

It's not like it's crap, just his mouth is. Other than his more open-slit-than-mouth-that-can-move, he's relatively awesome, along with his team. Also, is that Bulkhead I spy in the background? Sure looks like him. If it is, was it reported in the news section, and I just somehow missed it? :lol:

Wow that's deep for an animated cartoon about alien robots.

I happen to agree 100%, by the way.
