I wouldn't be surprised if it was Polygon considering Hasbro Studios's present relationship with them in their making both the Prime and RID 2015 cartoons.Delta Magnus wrote:I wonder what Japanese studio they're using?
please be Trigger please be Trigger please be Trigger

Remember these are robots, not humans. You want a studio that has a reputation for doing Robot/Mecha themed anime well. as far as I can see, Trigger has never done one.

Now to Gainax' credit, the original Gunbuster was a thing of beauty, and Casshan: Robot Hunter was amazing. But most animation studios like to be "progressive", thus we don't see those beautifully rendered anime series and films anymore. The designs of films like the Rebuild Eva series are pretty good, but of course, I know the story from the original anime, and prefer not to relive that again.
I think every Transformers fan should watch GaoGaiGar, or at least one Brave Series. Sunrise (of Gundam fame) beautifully animated them, and these series (which held Takara over between G1 Transformers and when Beast Wars came to Japan from 1990-1997)I consider the closest cousins to Transfermers series that a non-TF series could be, if that makes any sense...

I do agree that having the machinima series come out so long after the Combiner Wars storyline is forgotten is strange, but at this point it may well turn into an adaptation of all of the trilogy, or at least a melding of Combiner Wars and Titans Return. We'll just have to wait and see how it plays out.
o.supreme wrote:So Long? It hasn't even been a year yet. Many of the DC animated films have been made several years, or even decades after the comic book events they are adapted from.

What I know is Bee's screen-time should be less than Windblade's. Both will star in RID on 2016 but Bee may not be able to appear in this animated series as it's based on IDW comics which Bee was dead way before Combiner Wars, unless there will be a flashback or something (which I doubt as the chance is as small as his further cameos in Rescue Bots). And Windblade is certainly coming back to IDW on 2016. That’s why I really do believe that she is able to go to the position.
When Drift was started out as a homeless nobody and creator’s pet (in IDW where he first appeared), Windblade was started as a fan favorite and set to have drawn with a lot of influences from the history of Transformers (Caminus, cityspeakers, etc. in IDW, being sent by Primus in RID). The creators do know how to insert Windblade into different medias which people love to see her, where Drift is still having problems about that (unless being penned by JR). To me Windblade is properly the more successful version of Drift.

That's actually a very good point I hadn't considered, although on the other hand I would say that Combiner Wars is a much less memorable storyline than most of the DC adaptations.

ZeroWolf wrote:To be honest though, the addition of camien to IDW TF universe added a lot to it (and for the writers, got them past a writing headache in allowing them to add more fembots then poor Arcee) plus hasbro has wanted to make a big deal out of windblade since her inception, so it's no surprise that her character would start off as a Mary Sue but she has developed since then, helped a great deal with her relationship with Starscream.
