After our first look at the upcoming show, we now have more in-depth footage for the third chapter of Netflix and Rooster Teeth's Transformers War for Cybertron Trilogy, Kingdom! The footage comes from the Netflix Anime YouTube video, "Anime to Watch: What's Hot July 2021 | Netflix Anime", which highlights upcoming anime for Netflix in, you guessed it, July 2021! Spoilers in-bound!

The Kingdom clip starts 0:55 in, and features the logo, Airazor in a dogfight with Laserbeak in a forest, Cheetor running at the front of a pack of Autobots in the mist, Nemesis Prime standing in a snowstorm, a grim Megatron, Optimus Prime firing in a snowstorm, Optimus Primal slicing off Thundercracker's wing while he's flying in jet mode, Starscream transforming and flying to Megatron, and Beast Megatron roaring at the camera.

Check out the entire video and screenshots below and sound off your thoughts on the Pub forums below!

My guess is that "Nemesis Prime" is just how Magnus sees/interprets Optimus (Based on his quote from the previous clip), and the age old trope of using some jedi mind trick to make your friend look like your enemy so "they can fight".

Their CGI team doesn't really do organic settings well... that forest is pretty rough. Forests are the hardest setting to get right with CG or video games (I know from experience), but that looks like a prerendered FMV from the PS2 era.

But you forget, this isn't a normal forest. These animals are not the size of regular animals, they are the size of giant robots like Optimus and Megatron, so the trees are not normal trees either, since they are 10 times the size of regular vegetation and we have no clue what mega vegetation looks like, could look like what we see in the video.

The giant Autobots and Decepticons aren't always taller than the trees in a forest.

I'm predicting that somehow Optimus and Megatron get evolved into Galvatron and Nemesis Prime at some point and it takes Nemesis to defeat Megatron before the fight begins to regain himself back to Optimus.

Magnus is also somehow going to be a dream. We saw he's a disembodied head now, that is probably a nightmare or something like the cave from Empire Strikes Back

Action Figure Wishlist:

POTP (Optimal Optimus, Rodimus Unicronus)
Titans Return (Blitzwing, Astrotrain)
All the Combiner Wars Aerialbots
Studio Series and WFC repaints
TFP Soundwave
Cybertron Galvatron
G1 Megatron (cheapest option would be the Chronicle 2-pack)
MPMs for cheap prices

My G1 Starscream needs fists. He's the Collection reissue and can't have a coronation without fists!

I'm the only one that surprises
Its ability to store commonplace information about a TV show? it's just super amazing

Could someone include it at the front page article, as many non-US viewers can't access the official, geoblocked video, please?

I'm sorry, I was referring to the main site's news page. I couldn't see the "all region" video there.

Yeah, I don't really care about voice acting or plot holes, this looks freaking fun!!!

News Credits: 11 · by **primalxconvoy** » Mon Jul 05, 2021 1:56 pm

Everybody...is...still...speaking...slowly...

(Anyway, thanks for the all-region trailer! I could watch it in Japan!)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but we haven't heard any BW characters speak aside from Primal correct?

I'm sure it's because they don't want to spoil all the awesomeness...

Right?

Right???

Dinobot is looking pretty kewl

News Credits: 4498 · by **william-james88** » Mon Jul 05, 2021 4:08 pm

Fellow Seibertronian Sabrblade has told us of a new trailer for Netflix' upcoming Transformers War for Cybertron Kingdom show. It's loaded with fun stuff including a fight between both Nemesis Prime and Optimus Prime. We also see Galvatron returning, and loads of beasts. Dinobot particularly looks pretty bad ass, as we'd all expect he would. We also see Beast Wars Megatron though we don't hear the voice. So far, we do not know if any Beast Wars voice actors will be there.

BW Megatron yelled in the first clip we got.

Yelling isn't speaking, but technically sure, I guess we have a sample of what his voice may sound like, though it sounds just like the maximals that yell right afterwards.

Fun fact: Gary Chalk did Dinobots belch in the episode Double Dinobot.

This might actually be good. Unless they packed all the high points into the trailer and the rest is just dull droning. And I was hoping Elita would survive Earthrise, but by the looks of the first scene in the trailer, I will be disappointed.

And it also seems in Kingdom, the Beasts and the Originals are the same size.

And spewed soda (I think it was Coke) all over the mic in the process.

In the interview I watched, he said that happened when he was voicing for the sonic show.

The interview I saw was told by Susan Blu when she was his voice director. She didn't work on any of the Sonic cartoons.

Here's a recounting of it from her at a TFCon (I heard it at a BotCon, which is mentioned in the video):

My main issue with this series is the voice acting and how most of them sound the same. It's just blah. Hasbro makes enough money to have afforded Cullen, Welker, and the BWs voices. JS

News Credits: 23 · by **aronjlove** » Tue Jul 06, 2021 11:08 am

I never understood the desire to have the same voice actors over and over again for stuff that isn't related. TFWiki shows there is a multiverse, so why would movie Prime sound like G1 cartoon Prime when they are not the same universe? Same with this WFC Trilogy, this is neither the G1 nor the Beast Wars universe, so why would they sound the same. Besides, these are timeless characters. Is anyone upset Bond is played by different people for almost 60 years of movies? Sure, voice-acting isn't as strenuous. But these people are going to straight-up die soon. What is everyone gonna do then???
