My partner, (who's not into collecting but still supportive) just summed this up pretty good: "Why'd they make him look like a bulldog?"

Just had this thought: could this actually be a spoof series?

I am so glad that Optimus Prime looks like a car wreck.

Compared to this, I'd rather watch RiD, and we all know how badly RiD sucked.

He does! That's some ugly mug.

Anyway, funky transformations and all I think the show could have some appeal to older fans if it's done right.

So, they got the artist who did Samurai Jack, any writer who's seen a basic TF episode, & the advertising group who brought us the andrex puppy....

To quote Han solo, I've got as bad feeling about this....

The design is awful. When I read it would have the same animators that worked on Teen Titans I was disappointed, but I expected more than this slop.

When we said we wanted 'blocky' we didn't mean it for them to take it THAT literally...
I knew CartoonNetwork was bad news.

Actually, I might save final judgement until i see them moving but I think I know how it will look, I'm thinking Powerpuff Girls type action scenes.

What the hell is going on, is someone at Hasbro asleep at the wheel!? And I thought the new movie designs were the worst ever. Well I guess I was wrong, things can always suck worst. By the way has anyone notice the Prime's torso is the same as Star Convoy's torso.

Yep. I noticed that upon first glance, actually. Save for the golden star that goes between the two "windows" on his chest, it is almost a carbon-copy of SC's upper torso design.

But it still sucks.

Ok, I didn't read 30 pages of this thread, but does anybody actually like the look of this? I mean seriously, actually like it? Anybody?

News Credits: 2 · by **phantomfish** » Wed Jun 20, 2007 3:36 am

I am usually one of those people that finds the good in everything.....

I liked the RID cartoon (it got me back into TF's)
I like Cybertron Backstop
I like the movie FAB Frenzy (hell I already own him!)
I love minicons

but.......

I can't find anything positive about this except maybe Prime is the right colour! :-?

There you go the tagline for the new show:
Transformers: the art sucks but at least its the right colour!

Yeah I agree...

I knew about this as soon as I signed up here anyway... it is on the Wikipedia... and they are 100% sure Bumblebee is going to be in it
