GROSS! I cant wait to hear what the story line will be haha, By the looks of it I'd rather go watch old eps of Go-bots on youtube!

I don't know how these will turn into actual toys... but I do like the style.

No it doesn't. That looks worlds better than the first picture we saw.

This could end up as an alright series for sure.

Granted that first promo pic was bad.

This? Not so much. Like anything else we'll have to wait and see.

Since that won't happen...I'm going to stand aside, shut up, and let the overall bitch-fest commence.

why does prime have a goatee, if he has a faceplate?

While I disagree with many of the scathingly negative remarks being made about Animated, I really can't find anything positive to say, either.

ughhhh. Why does Hound have Crumplezone's head?

I don't like most of'em but BB looks alright, he reminds me of both the classics and movie designs of BB.

I loved those series, too, and Teen Titans. I'm expecting good things to come from this series. It is VERY stylized, but that could be good. It will be a nice contrast with the ultra-real movie versions. With quality animation, it will most likely be the story lines that make or break this series.

Well, it's an improvement. Bumblebee and Prowl look pretty good.

But don't worry, protomotional art from the Teen Titans guys is usually pretty $%@#ed up these days.

by **Starscream227** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 12:41 pm

I like it myself, though that stands subject to change once art for Starscream is released...and if they've left Screamer out? I'll just be moving on, then...

HOLY **** ITS BUMBLEBEE!!!!! Yay!! Ive Been Waiting for Bumblebee To make his return in a Series! (other Than Comics)

Well, I have to say that I've now given it TWO (count 'em 2!) chances to impress me, and both times have miserably failed.

Hell, even the Bay designs had some good points to them.

I'll say this: Bumblebee and the vehicle modes are adorable. Simply "OMG" gotta cuddle 'em all adorable.

Beyond that:

Prime *STILL* sucks, and now he's even worse...a fire truck, AGAIN?!

Bulkhead is...yeah, I can't even comment. (It would shatter my brain coming up with his sucktitude.)

Ratchet looks like an even toonier A/E/C hybrid.

Not sure who the motorcycle guy is, but he has potential, in both vehicle and robot modes.

I too agree that the toys will be better than animation models, but the show will reek (visually, can't speak for the storyline. Although Prime being young and climbing the ranks, plus each episode is a one shot...) but perhaps, we'll get lucky and they'll make excellent toys. (Although not much can top the movie guys)

O.O

Hm. The style of animation still bugs me.

These would look awesome as toys, though. Assuming they don't spin to transform, etc.

Alittle peice of me just died looking at this, the toys are gona be crap, I think this will be the nly prime I will not add to ym collection,

News Credits: 1 · by **Dark Ops** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 12:56 pm

That looks better to me than the last design did. Honestly, I'm starting to look forward to this one.

News Credits: 49 · by **Scaleface** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 1:02 pm

Not loving the "Teen Titan" look here. The animation models from the last couple Transformers series were NOT the problems with the shows. The WRITING was.

by **Descybner** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 1:04 pm

Oh my goodness!!! Man, this is just a rip off from Teen Titans!!!
Please let this be a joke.. tell us it is.. *drowns in her own tears* WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!! ;_; x""(|

by **Bouncy X** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 1:05 pm

its bad enough they look like **** but prime's a fire truck again? damn

by **reanimate28** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 1:09 pm

cuz he is now that much hipper and cool.....yeah i dont think so

by **microclone** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 1:12 pm

ok so they are not what the fanboys want but i reckon the are very FUN looking, now for all those griping about 'how can that transform' its quite possible now to visualise the TF of the bot to vehicle from this picture. Will kids like them???? I reckon that toys based on that look could be pretty cool. I love G1 and feel the best designs are the ex diaclone toys for pure ingenuity and simplicity but i still think these look more exciting than the movie ideas.

I'm still skeptical. This promo is worlds better than the first prime we saw. I can actually see some potential in those designs. We'll see how it looks in motion. The thing that really scares me is how they're describing the plot lines. It just doesn't seem to be in the TF spirit.
