The first 14 episodes have already reached the Internet, having aired in both Australia and Singapore ahead of the U.S.

Normally I'm not one to recommend another TF fan website but in this case I think its all right.




Tfw2005 has a thread with all the Rid episodes ready to download via Mega or links to Dailymotion (But why would you use that laggy site?)

I've already been covering episode viewing links in the RID cartoon thread, so there's no need to point to TFW. And if you embed DM videos off of DM's website, they play just fine.

Ok my apologies about that Sabe I did not know that.

You don't know how to navigate this website? But there's a navigation menu at the top of every page, and the forums are organized as neatly as a forum can be.

Well I know about that first part but I'm a very confused simple minded type of person (For example I accept and love every part of Transformers except Kiss Players of course and the recent SG Stepper figure)

I really hope this version gets a toy. I like my Generations Windblade, but I would enjoy a Windblade toy a lot more if she had feet that I do not dislike.

Reprolabels could put together a set to turn Generations Windblade into RID Windblade.

Why the lipstick? What is the point of it for a Transformer?

What's the point of a transformer with a gender?

FYI, links to videos of TF cartoons are permitted unless the shows have been given a DVD release in which case we then remove them and encourage people to buy the DVD's.

There have been a lot of discussions on why Cybertronians, an apparently mechanical race, have differing genders; I don't think anyone's really agreed on the why (or if it really matters for a mechanical race).

The fact that Windblade and the upcoming combiner characters are fan-requested characters does indicate that fans want to see more female Transformer characters (which are, admittedly rather lacking in the franchise).

I think, and I could be wrong, that he's responding to the poster above him. Like, "what's the point of lipstick? well what's the point of genders at all? Just go with it."
I may be reading too much into it, though.

Spot on.

Am I the only one who is more excited by the brown Mountain Lion looking decepticon than I am about Windblade?

I appreciate that Windblade is getting attention, and I like her character design, but I feel like the designs for the Decepticons are the real stars of this show. They don't get nearly enough screentime or personality yet, but the designs are tremendous and show a really new approach to Transformers aesthetics.

I'm excited to see Windblade, but I do agree with you on the Decepticon designs. Deviating from the standard humanoid style robot mode really does make them stand out more.

I agree, but it does give them a bit of a Power Rangers monster feel. Seems like the plot of the villains has been taken from Time Force, with the crashed ship, a charismatic leader uniting fugitives, and a character who's "from" earth (Bumblebee/Wesley[?]) uniting a group of characters that have never been (rest of the cast) to be honest. Add the animal themed villains from Jungle Fury and this show is a perfect replica.

Some of them (like Steeljaw and Thunderhoof) are still humanoid, but yeah, I'm digging the beastly aesthetic.

Windblade does look cool too, though.
