Kung-fu ninja robots? That can be a really good thing or bad thing depending on it is handled. :-?

Yes, the writers thought that animated was a great platform to show their teenage mutant ninja turtles wet dreams and WE are left wondering why the show goes tits up...

at least the levitating pony made sense!

sigh ad infinitum

I bet he's very stealthy in that Roadbuster armor, if we see it in Season 3. :roll:

Don't know if it'll be good or bad, but it's nice to see Prowl will be getting a little bit of backstory before the show concludes. He was rather conspicuously left out of the S1/S2 flashback episodes.

everything else very promising to be true except for one thing ULTRA MGANUS a ninja bot i find that hard to believe he shows no ninja qualitys in battle he looks more like warrior bot than ninja.

i want this to be true i want to see waht blackaracnia looks like under her helmet reminds me of phantonm of the opera thing going on with her, 2 face, or wwe kane

why so many random ninjas?
i don't really believe it.
the only guy left who deserves to be a ninja master is Mirage.

Although I don't realy like the idea of so many nija-bots(how could ever TFA Ultra Magnus be a ninja??)there is a funny side of this....
Imagine Bulkhead trying to be a ninja....

He already tried somewhere in season 2. and there was nothing funny about it.

It seems we're going to get a lot of backstory on Prowl, which is a good thing. He'll probably be a well fleshed out character when he dies.

And Sentinel-BA action, with her helmet being flipped off? Can't wait for that!

Ninja *TRIBE* did you say? Okay, count me as officially nauseated.

I'm okay with ninjabots--I mean, different protoform types obviously require different fighting strategies, and I've swallowed NinjaBot Prowl (and even Samurai Armor Prowl) without protest thus far, but a ninja TRIBE is a bridge too far for this kitty.

First, it brings up this weird notion of family and lineage, which, since we're not exactly sure how new bots are made (mommy?) causes problems. How do you trace tribe 'bloodline' with no blood?

Second, it's a blatant rip off of shows like Naruto. Is originality entirely dead? I'm okay with intertextuality, and clever pop culture references which fill the show, but this is just lame 'creative' thinking.

I agree with others that it's nice Prowl gets some backstory. I just wish it was something less Shonen Jump.

HK, who prefers Sonny Chiba as Prowl's mentor.
