PrymeStriker, while we can say that Pseudo is the one that most likely framed Strongarm for corruption and treason, this is not always the case. The main reason for that is when Pseudo and Strongarm were on Cybertron back then, he didn't scan her form at that time. Could it be that another Shifter might be fully responsible for this?

By Primus

Strongarm was living her greatest nightmare man, she was not recounting a past event. The other bots were living their worst nightmare as well, and they could not have happened, therefore Strongarm did not have this happen either. It is her worst fear, not her worst memory

I completely agree, dude. Trust me, I totally get what you're talking about.

*ahem*

But the question remains, will Strongarm and Sideswipe get back together? And, even then, will Bumblebee confess his burning hot passionate love for Optimus Prime, let-alone tell him about their secret love child Soundwave? I also hear a rumor that Fixit undergoes a DNA test in season two and that he just might be Sideswipe's father like we thought. Also read on Wikipedia that Grimlock is going to reveal himself to really be Megatron this whole time. I can't wait for season 2!

I'm surprised nobody mentioned this yet. But looks like Season 2 will be shortened:

http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/10/03/tran ... led-302292

Just 19 episodes, and probably no 3rd season. I'm a little disappointed, but totally predictable from CN. Guess the show wasn't "dumb" enough for the network.

I saw this on another board (not that one) and it was deduced that the 19 episodes thing referred more to that being the number of episodes that have currently been produced, rather than the definite total number of episodes that will be produced. Meaning that 19 are done right now, but there's no word yet as to whether that will be the final number or if there's still seven more in production.

After all, season 1 was completed, with season 2 already in production, before the show even started airing (in any country).

We'll just have to wait and see.

Impatient much aren't they?

Cartoon Network's YouTube has posted two new Robots in Disguise videos that appear to be preview clips for a Season 2 episode.

[LOST Cybertronian]

Cartoon Network Youtube Channel has uploaded a couple of new clips from Robots In Disguise. These clips however are not from any season 1 episode so it is likely these are our first look at season 2. The two clips are entitled "Knock, Knock" and "Power of Dibs" and feature Drift, Sideswipe, Fracture and some Mini-Con action which introduces us to Cyclones which are unaligned Mini-Cons. The two new Mini-Cons introduced in the clips are Backtrack and Ransack. We recently seen toy reveals of Backtrack and also Overload. Check out the clips embedded below.

[Sabrblade]

So, we have...

• Autobot Mini-Cons = Buzzsaws (disc/puck-shaped)
• Decepticon Mini-Cons = Torpedoes (spike-shaped)
• Neutral/chaotic Mini-Cons = Cyclones (sphere-shaped)

[D-Maximal_Primal]

Well now we know Fracture escapes at least. And we have more minicons!

[Sabrblade]

Well now we know Fracture escapes at least.

Of course, he has a new toy coming.

Funny thing is: That is exactly what i was thinking as i wrote that!

And I had wished we would have seen some footage of prime characters returning though. I want that

[Shuttershock]

Well, this could explain Overload, as well as possibly give a third rogue faction causing general anarchy. Maybe we can get our favorite anarchist busted out (in time for his toy) to join them?

Oooor, maybe it's another one episode wonder to be banished to the stasis pods and forgotten.

[psj333]

Do you guys remember Zizza, the queen bee who behaves like a tyrant? Well, what is interesting to me is that Zizza has the same color scheme as Bumblebee and that her head and face is very similar in build as Bumblebee. Is it safe to say that Zizza will be likely to be or will be revealed as Bumblebee's mother who recently left his family to become an full-blooded animal from her original car form?

A third rogue faction would definitely shake things up, especially with unpredictable dangerous minicons, though I feel Slipstream will be successful in doing something and those minis will just get locked right back up

[o.supreme]

Interesting, sounded quite a bit like Frank Welker doing the voices for the Cyclone Minicons, but I know a couple of VA's that can mimic some of his voices, I guess we'll see.

Also I initially thought CN would not be airing Season 2 until the spring of 2016 (around the same time season 1 started earlier this year). This gives me slight hope they might be coming sooner. Additionally, I'm not sure if season 1 has finished in Japan yet, but usually if episodes are ready, they will only take a 1 week break (usually airing a recap episode of some sort) in between. If Japan starts season 2 ahead of the U.S., I know where I'll be going for new episodes

Dibs!

What?



I mean I just can't even.



You do know that Cybertronians are made by the Well of Allsparks right?



There are no parents or family members outside of the possibility of Twins if she possibly was Bumblebee's "mother" don't you think Bee would know?




So no Zizza is just a one off villain that has some resemblance to a human Bee.

You know, I`m so glad to see that Overload will indeed make his debut in season 2. But the question remains is this: will new animal-based Decepticons that transform into vehicles make their appearances for the upcoming season. or that this is just enough characters for Steeljaw to form his own army once they`re fully released? Well, by the looks from it, we now already know that Fracture who was in jail has recently made his escape. But how did he do it? Remember the upcoming Quillfire toy in which Hasbro just recently released just weeks ago? The image shows him holding a pistol with his left hand. This could mean that Quillfire will return in Season 2 with a pistol. Because so far, we've only see him using missiles as his weapons. It can also mean that all of the captured Cons so far will return for Season 2, including Pseudo himself. Speaking of Pseudo, many of us are extremely curious to know what his altmode might be like. I actually thought about that for a while, and using the recently Hasbro concept: animal-to-vehicle transformation, I actually have predicted that Pseudo will most likely turn into a bike identical to Arcee, but fully black instead of blue. Remember the picture of the bike that I had just showed you a while back? That's exactly what I meant. The name, Pseudo means fake in either Greek or Latin. But given the idea that these animals can turn into vehicles, Pseudo's official vehicle mode might mostly likely be a moto, which means motorcycle for short. Do you think that Pseudo should be a bike? Why and why not? I do already knew that the Mutacons do turn into spaceships. That's all.

That's not Overload that's just a drone as far as we know Overload is a toy only character who was based on the Drones in the show.




And Quillfire's toy means nothing and absolutely does not suggest he is coming back if that was the case wouldn't the beast hunters armor actually be in the show?



And since Pesuedo is a shifter I doubt he has a proper alt mode plus he looks a bit big to be turning into a motorcycle although he is a shifter he could make it work but at the same time why be a motorbike when he could be a tank or a car or a jet?

Okay, look. Perhaps, this might help. Here are list of vehicles that Pseudo most likely transform into:

-car
-bike
-jet
-boat
-tank
-bus
-van

Which one best suits his altmode?

I think its more like which one he prefers at specific moments.




Since he is a shifter I'm sure he would take full advantage of turning into whatever he pleases or needs in any situation.

Please assist to refresh my memory. I watched all the episodes, but only once through, and that was way back in May when they all went available online. (I keep waiting for Netflix to add the 1st season grr..., here's hoping for December). But which episode featured drones identical to the Overload toy?

The fake dream Decepticons Micronus brought to kill the illusion humans.


Difference between them is that Overload has a proper head and maybe is a brighter blue then the drones.





Edit: Here I dug up a post Sabrblade made so props to him for the research!

Overload appears to be based on the cartoon model of the illusionary Decepticon that Micronus used to train Optimus in the Realm of the Primes back in "Out of Focus", but given a proper head.




This isn't to say that that illusionary Decepticon was Overload, or that Overload might appear in season 2 using this cartoon model. Rather, it's just to show where the design for Overload's toy comes from.

Likewise, Backtrack is based on the spherical Mini-Cons this illusionary Decepticon was equipped with.

Well, from I do already know the Mutacons has a spaceship altmode, and had Makeshift entire body was fully revealed, and had he not been killed in the first place, then he would be a Cybertronian jet identical to that of Megatron's, but with a slightly different body.

Therefore, I'm pretty sure that given the information above, Pseudo has to have an official altmode for his original robot mode. Perhaps we will find out more about it when season 2 arrives.

Edit: Here I dug up a post Sabrblade made so props to him for the research!

Thank you both. I'll watch that again. I don't mind watching an episode or two again, I just didn't want to rewatch the whole season until it becomes available in a conventional form.
