Today's episode involves Decepticon bounty hunter Lockdown, Autobot martial artist Prowl, and a Decepticon that at last glance was headed to Cybertron as the Elite Guard's prisoner...

You can catch Lockdown VS. Prowl VS. Starscream this morning at 10:30 on Cartoon Network in "A Fistful of Energon".

And as reported earlier this week Cartoon Network's schedule for new animated episodes in June has been released. Next weekend has the dreaded 'S.U.V' plaguing the Autobots.

Saturday, June 7: "S.U.V. - Society of Ultimate Villainy"
Saturday, June 14: "Autoboot Camp"
Saturday, June 21: "Black Friday"
Saturday, June 28: "Sari, No One's Home"

And of course, Cartoon Network also shows reruns during the week at 6:00AM for those who are so inclined and have the time.

Enjoy!

The correct spelling is "Autoboot Camp" isn't it?

What is it with every show having at least one clone episode lately. Not that I didn't enjoy this one it was fun to see prowl learn a lesson about upgrades and there was no sari in site which was kind of nice. Can't wait to see what happens next I'm sure it will be amazing.

Homage to DW WW3 was very cool. If only we had gotten to see how that clone story ended.

I liked this episode. The whole pulling the splinter from the toe of the larger meaner creature fairy tale reference.

Lockdown was rather cool in this as well. Enjoyable.

Prowl was cool with all of the upgrades. I hope we get a toy of it!

Am I the only one whose getting a Death's Head vibe from Lockdown? the only way this reference could be more explicit is if he called himself a "freelance-peacekeeping-agent" and ended his sentences like this, yes?

After seeing this episode, anyone else have the feeling that Thundercracker, Skywarp and the other seekers and going to simply be clones of SS???

No you're not, I totally thought his name was going to be Death's Head when I first saw him. I still think he could pass as him, it would be pretty cool, yes?

It was pretty good. Not quite what I had hoped for, but okay.

Pros:

- No Sari.
- Little humor and reference.
- Grimlock made an appearance.
- Partnership between Prowl and Lockdown was done fairly well.
- Interesting plot.
- Stayed down to earth and less farfetched for the most part.
- Liked Prowls armor.

Cons:

- Didn’t feel like it went too far with the story.
- Where did Starscream get those clones anyway?
- Prowl was an ass for the most part and why cant an character get a upgrade in this show without “hurting” something.
- Some bird eggs broke, was bit overly dramatic here.

I wonder how many people will be troop building Animated Starscream as “clones” now? Well don’t forget to talk about the possibilities of Animated Seeker toys in my thread here.

Sadly though, when I post in these threads now I almost wonder if anyone actually reads it. Ever since it started airing in Canada first everyone’s just been downloading it instead of watching it lawfully. Kind of leaves me here, the person who does watch it on Saturday with no one to talk to really.

Well thank you Tigertracks. At least there are a few of us who watch it on our own TV.

Computer monitors are too small. My 46 inch flat screen TV makes it awesome!

You're welcome, and thank you for your breakdowns of the episodes.

Well If I think about it, I watch the new Canada vid on Saturday after the US one, forget about over the weke, then watch for the parts I've missed next week on a much larger screen than my Comp. I for one enjoy having both. But I usually don;'t ghave the time to watch the cananda one now anyway. Too busy being lazy.
