I know the name of the planet is called Mustafar it is the Valconoe Planet were Anakin becomes Darth Vader will he takes his final steps as Anakin then becomes Darth Vader somewhere on Corscaunt.

Sorry I forgot the name of the planet it slipped my mind cause I havent watched star wars in a while that is also why I mis-spelled Obi Wan's name incorrectly excuse me I am not perfect like you seem to be.


Yes Sabreblade if they made him right and brought depth and choose a good voice actor for him he could be an excellent villian and give us a break from Megatron for awhile.

What we need to do is come up with ideas and submit them to the guys who make transformers so they can get the ball rolling on the next series.

I mean we all have ideas all they have to do is pay attention to the boards on here and see were to get ideas from but I sincerly doubt that the creators of transformers series ever pay attention to these message boards anyways.

Like game makers say they pay attention on the boards to get ideas from consumers if they did that then why do most of the games suck and never live up to the hype.

I mean some are really good cause they take there time and make a good game such as Bioware they are taken 2 or 3 years to make Mass Effect 2 cause it has been in devolopment since ME 1 came out in 2007.

Mass Effect 2 wont be out until March 2010 cause the 2nd DLC Episode isnt even out yet.

Sorry off topic: I know this is about transformers I was just trying to prove a point. That if the makers of Transformers would take their time this go around look around these boards and use fan ideas with their own ideas they can truly make the next show something special.

But I have a hunch that they are already on the works for the next series but it is just being keeped under lock and key for now until they are ready to make an official announcemt.

Like with Sony they said they never heard of the PSP-Go and it was just a rumor and bam right at E3 here it is also same with the upcoming Slim-Line Playstation 3.

Also they are dropping the Playstation 3 another 100 bucks in price but unkown when.

Anakin became Darth Vader on Coruscant well before he got immolated. After killing Mace Windu, Palaptine gave him the title of Darth Vader, then sent him to Mustafar.

I highly, highly doubt that we'll see an American made Transformers Cartoon without Optimus vs. Megatron. Having said that... it's possibly (in my mind) that they might do a cartoon showing leadership from Ultra Magnus or Rodimus and then switching back to or later to Optimus. Same with leadership under Galvatron (as a different character from Megatron). Just my 2 cents.


(Been a while since I checked this thread... and I come back to see that it's just Rodimus2006 writing his long multi one-sentence paragraph posts with the others replying to his small errors. Fun. I feel like I missed so much. :P :grin:

Hey... I kid because I care. ;;) )

Sorry I just get into the zone when I get into these forums I get carryied away.

Sorry for my enormus 1 sentenced paragraphs from now on I wil just type short ones.

Also animated is done over with it so it dosent make since for me to make long paragraphs about a dead series.

So from now on I wont talk about anything until something newer comes across that is news worthy.

Or if I come across something from research I do cause I like to keep tabs on things and I often Find things that arent posted up here on Seibertron.

If I ever come across something I will post up and I will try my best to provide proof to show what I find is real and legit.

But it dosent look like anything will be going on for the time being


Just Animated season 3 coming soon on dvd, Revenge coming out in a couple of days and the rest of Shout Factories Generation 1 re-releases throughout the rest of the year.

Season 2 is due out in September or in October.

Well I am taking a break for a while cause it looks like transformers is going to be in stasis mode for about a year or so until the next new animated series comes out.

i agree. whilst the cameos were great, they shouldn't force the same characters down our throats over and over. Every series will have an Optimus, and a kid friendly yellow guy, and a gruff technical/medic guy, and a big lovable stupid guy. its a working formula, fanboys need not tamper with powers they do not understand.

I'm not so sure I agree with that formula. Not every series has followed it. I mean, sure every (English/English dubbed) series did have an Optimus (Prime or Primal), but not every series had the other components.

RiD, Energon, and Cybertron all had kid-friendly blue guys, and the G1 movie had Hot Rod (who was red/orange). Beast Machines' tech guy was Rattrap, Beast Wars had Rhinox, Armada and Cybertron had Red Alert, and G1 had a bunch of tech guys, and none of them were gruff. And as far as I can tell, Bulkhead is probably the first "big lovable stupid guy" of any series.

And I'm not even gonna go into the Japanese-exclusive series, as their formulas were very different at times.

Bulkhead wasn't that that mentally dumb.

Besides, wouldn't G1 Dinobots = Animated Dinobots make more sense than G1 Dinobots = Bulkhead?

No cos the G1 Dinobots where seen more often and actually did something and where badass well till they made friends with Daniel and Wheely :sad:
I think TFA Dinobots + Bulkhead = G1 Dinobots.

Okay, just forget it. The point is that not every series follows the same formula with picking its characters.

I just said to drop it. Besides, the kid friendly bots in Energon and Cybertron were blue, and Hot Rod (the kid friendly star of the G1 movie) was red/orange.

True, R.I.D. was the last Transformers series to air on Fox Kids allthough for some reason in my area either the cable or the station would allways cut out whenever it was on so it technically never even aired. All I saw of it on TV was the opening of Megatron in claw mode kidnapping the scientist dude and then nothing. It pissed me off to great ends that it would allways happen only durring Transformers.

I watched the series on YouTube a couple years ago.

You think that's bad, you should here my story.

Many years ago, back when Beast Wars and Beast Machines were airing on Fox Kids, there was a big conflict that occured on my local TV stations. Originally, my local broadcast channels consisted of two Fox stations: one that was the regular Fox channel (Fow 13), and the other was like an independent channel that Fox owned (Fox 38). And between these two networks, it was 38 that the Fox Kids programming aired on. Around the late 90's/early 2000, however, a big change came about. The WB, airing on another channel, decided to move away from its current channel, 32, and took over channel 38. At the same time that Fox Kids was on, The WB was trying to cram in their own Kids WB! programming onto the same channel. This wasn't that bad at first, as Fox Kids remained on Saturday mornings with Kids WB airing on Sunday mornings. BUT, in the mid 2001, something terrible happened: The WB 38 completely dropped all its Fox Kids programming in favor of its Kids WB! shows. I was devastated! And this whole event happened TWO WEEKS before the premiere of Transformers: Robots in Disguise, as well as ONE WEEK before the premiere of the third season of Digimon, and right in the middle of an epic three-part episode of Power Rangers Time Force, as well interfering with several other Fox Kids shows!

I did not have cable at the time, nor was I capable of watching any of these shows. The only way I could watch any of them was to view them when my family would go on vacation. During its entire broadcast run, I had only gotten to see six episodes, and not in the correct order either (except for the first episode, which I saw first - luckily I was on vacation during its premiere, but that was a one-time fortune).

Fortunately, Fox Kids did come back almost seven months later, on the independent channel 32 that The WB was on before their (hostile) takeover of 38. Unfortunately, by that time, RiD ceased airing on Fox Kids completely.

It would not be till very late 2007 when I finally got to see the whole series on YouTube. To this day, I still loathe The WB for what they did to my favorite network as a child. But seeing as how it no longer exists, as it merged with UPN to form The CW and Kids WB! has been replaced with The CW4Kids, I haven't any positive nor negative feelings towards it. I simply don't care anymore as it has faded from existence.

Around that time I was actully starting to like the WB MORE than Fox because Fox Kids had allready announced that they were dropping all their current shows and replaceing them with several other shows that I had absolutly no interest in. In other words, that horrible invention known as the Fox Box.

Fox has allways aired on 2 channels in my area but that has never interfered with Kids WB. Fox was allways on channel 2 and channel 9 while kids WB was on channel 5. The two Fox networks have allways been exactly the same except for showing the programs in different time slots which useually worked out well because there were some shows on Kids WB I liked to watch and would stick to that as my main network switching to a different Fox Kids depending on which one was showing the program I actully wanted to see at the same time Kids WB had nothing good on. If both fox had something I wanted to watch on at the same time it'd be OK because the one I would end up watching would just show the same program later in the day as the one I decided not to watch.

Kids network I had the most problem with was Disney and Nickelodeon which would change stations every couple of months. Nick was on channel 25 most of the time, that was the channel they'd allways switch back to but they'd be somewhere different every time they switched somewhere else. They were on 20 till I finally got digital cable which seems to have the same channels as satelight but the basic cable was weird.

There was allways at least 1 spanish station in my area too but durring that last channel change thing I ended up with 3 Spanish stations. There's other channels that would rearrange as well but given I never paid much attention to any of them I couldn't tell you what. I only paid attention to the Spanish stations because I stopped on one of them one day and this random thought popped into my head. "It must really suck for thoughs Spanish kids at my school if this is all they have to watch." Not that they couldn't speak English allthough I know at least one kid who's parrents didn't speak English because I heard teachers talking about getting a translator for parrent teacher meetings and that would mean his parrents would only be watching thoughs 3 stations or turn off the TV.

This was back when I still watched TV ALOT! Which I don't anymore. I use to watch TV every Sunday night and that was all, I don't even do that anymore sence I have DVR now. I watch TV whenever I'm bored and just see what I have recorded.

When I was in school I watched so much TV I could tell the time by what show I was watching. Not possible sence the hostile take over of reality shows that nearly ended all my TV watching. Actual good shows are slowly starting to creep their way back on TV though so that's good... unless they all get canceled.

Normally when I think of Saturday morning kid stations I think "Saturday Morning CARTOONS!" so Hanna Montana doesn't count even if some kid does watch that series on Saturday mornings.

I haven't watched fox at all sence the Fox Box started up. I know it changed it's name again and kept the same shows as the Fox Box but I don't watch it anymore.

I really don't watch Kids WB anymore either sence it's now restricted to Saturday mornings insted of being on all week. Use to show the reruns from Saturday durring the week so if you missed a new episode you could just catch it again durring the week but nope, not anymore.

there is no fox box any more. fox is infomercials all saturday morn, so is cbs. everything but the CW is, but thats all Chaotik/yu-gi-oh crap, not worth watching.

Animated didn't even get a 2nd run for this season, as soon as season was over it got replaced.

Unless you count, say Power Rangers, or almost every show from Saban.

Fox Kids was replaced by the Fox Box (composed of shows owned by 4Kids), which changed its name to 4Kids TV, which is now no longer in existence.

When The WB and UPN merged into The CW, Kids WB! was still showing on The CW, until it (like Fox Kids) met its demise and was replaced by The CW4Kids.

For a while, both 4Kids TV and The CW4Kids ran side-by-side with the former airing on Fox and the latter airing on The CW. Shows on 4Kids TV consisted of new episodes of newer 4Kids shows, while The CW4Kids ran reruns of older 4Kids shows, as well as new episodes of The Batman (the last surviving Kids WB! show on the channel).

Eventually, 4Kids TV came to its end, but instead of disappearing altogether, it simply moved into The CW4Kids. With the CW4Kids being to only of the two left, it continued showing various 4Kids shows, as well as a few others like The Spectacular Spider-Man (which moved to Disney XD) and currently Kamen Rider Dragon Knight (the only show I watch on the program block).

As for what became of Fox Kids, all of Fox Kids' programming moved to ABC Family (which had changed from the Fox Family channel around the same time Fox Kids was in its final days) and was gathered in its own 2-hour program block everyday, showing four different shows each day (except for Sunday mornings, which took those two hours to show four Power Rangers episodes from past seasons in a block called "Best of Power Rangers"). Also, new episdes of Power Rangers would air on ABC Kids (formerly Disney's 1 Saturday Morning), and continues to do so to this day. But one show did not go onto ABC Family and instead went to UPN: Digimon season four (Frontier's English dub). But once that show ran all the way through to its finale, it finally joined its fellow former-Fox Kids shows on ABC Family, which had by this time developed its own programming block on that channel called Jetix (Jetix didn't start up right away when the shows came to ABC Family). Jetix begn playing on ABC Family for a while, and eventually added a part of it to the Toon Disney channel. Over time, the Toon Disney Jetix block grew bigger than the ABC Family Jetix block (by this time "Best of Power Rangers" had been changed to "Power Ranger Generations"), and it was finally decided that all Jetix shows would be permanently moved to Toon Disney, where they resided from then on, taking up the Primetime and late-night/early-morning timeslots. Eventually, a new show aired on Jetix that had a connection to an old Fox Kids show. This new show was Digimon Dat Squad (the Digimon Savers English dub). Sometime after this show reached its finale, Toon Disney was completely revamped as Disney XD, consisting solely of showes targeted at late-grade school students to older children (gone were all the preschool/kindergarten/early-grade school targeted shows). With this new change came some new live-action shows, some other old cartoons from the 90's (some even came from Kids WB!) and all shows that were par of Jetix were integrated in to the channel itself, being shown sparsly during the day, and all the main shows starting sometime after midnight and ending before the dawn (except for Power rangers, which was removed form the channel, now all curent new episodes air only on ABC Kids). This is how it is today for all the surviving Fox Kids shows.

As for Kids WB!'s fate, when it got replaced by The CW4Kids, some of its programming remained on The CW4Kids, until it all got taken off, ending with The Batman. After that, most/all of its shows from varying points of the past were moved to/started up again on Cartoon Network, Boomerang, and Toon Disney, and even more came back when Disney XD was born. Currently, all shows that were previously part ofKids WB! that are still airing on TV (whether in new episodes or reruns) are playing on Cartoon Network, Boomerang, and Disney XD.

Actully they are still showing reruns of Animated on the Cartoon Network at it's normal time. Only the Saturday showing was replaced sence there's no new episodes and that was when all the new episodes would premier.

BTW Chaotic was one of the only shows from Fox Box I actully liked. I just found out recently they have new episodes with a different animation styal.

Before it looked like South Park styal animation ecept that their legs actully move indipendantly. Now it looks like every other anime show.
