5. I think that this is about reconnecting all the Decepticons back together for a huge battle with the Autobots would make for a great season 3 finale.

I think that something I thought of back when we first saw the human Autobots. I doubt they'll use my idea in the season. Though, they probably will have all the 'Cons come together in the finale, I just don't think their goal of the whole season will be the reunification of them. The 'Cons will want to come up with a better plot than that.

But, I just wish we knew when it will air so we don't have to worry about it anymore!

[Rodimus2006]

You an me both man, I think almost a year waiting is more than enough, also I still think it is unfair that Canada has an Official air date before the United States does.

While we are still in the dark about when animated will be returning Canada is lucky they only have to wait 2 or 3 more weeks while it is still uncertain as to when a United States/CN air will be.

United States - Unkown ????

Canada - March 14, 2009


Anyone else think this is also wrong.

[Wheeljack35]

I just read on TFormers that the show premieres on CN on March 14

[Rodimus2006]

WHAT DID I JUST GET THROUGH SAYING PEOPLE THE MARCH 14TH IS THE AIR-DATE FOR CANADA NOT THE USA.


THE USA AIR-DATE IS STILL UNCONFIRMED AT THE MOMENT.

And he just read that the air date for the US is March 14th. Unfortunately, you haven't posted sources, and Wheeljack35 more or less did.

It has been said here too.

That's the exact article from the link I posted. I mean, no offense or anything, but I just expected it to be a different article from the way you worded that.

Yeah, I copied the article, but I cited the source, italicized it, but it in quotation marks, and changed all the article's original quotation marks to apostrophes.

New toys could be coming:

The Transformers Collector's Club newsletter arrives with a pre-order slip, revealing the following new figures for Transformers: Animated:

Deluxe: Ratchet, Freeway Jazz.

Voyager: Blackout and Wingblade Optimus Prime.

[munkimus prime]

Wait another ratchet, I will only buy the Freeway Jazz if he's in Stepper colours.

Season 3 looks good, I can't wait for it to start.

We know. We've seen this:

At long last, the official airdate for the third and final season of the Transformers Animated cartoon has been revealed!

This has been discovered by TFormers.com. In which they not only describe when the airdate is, but so much more:

"The 'Robots in Disguise' are back for a third season on Cartoon Network, starting with 'TransWarped,' a 90-minute special movie event on Saturday, March 14, at 8 a.m. (ET, PT). Based on the beloved 1980's toys, TRANSFORMERS ANIMATED is set on Earth in the near future in Detroit. The story begins when the alien TRANSFORMERS are thrust into a world populated by humans and automatons. As visitors to Earth, the TRANSFORMERS-OPTIMUS PRIME, BUMBLEBEE, PROWL, BULKHEAD and RATCHET-work in the human world, interacting with the "natives" in exciting and humorous ways. Following the AUTOBOTS across the galaxy to their new home is the megalomaniacal MEGATRON and his army of ruthless DECEPTICONS, a brutal race of war-mongering robots who seek to use the ALLSPARK as their ultimate weapon of destruction!

- Saturday, March 14: 'TransWarped' - As Sari and Sumdac deal with the fallout from her shocking discovery, the Autobots try to contact Cybertron to warn them of the traitor in their midst. Meanwhile, Megatron inadvertently stumbles upon a new plan to take over Cybertron, where an increasingly desperate Longarm attempts to cover his tracks.

-Saturday, March 21: 'Where is Thy Sting?' - A crazed Wasp finds his way to Earth to exact his revenge on Bumblebee... but he doesn't count on the Elite Guard following him.

- Saturday, March 28 : 'Five Servos of Doom' - Sentinel has incredible success capturing fugitive Decepticons, leading Prowl to suspect he's getting help."

[Rodimus2006]

I wonder if any of the newer bots will be introduced in the 1st 90 minute episode.


Or is this just an introduction to just get us into season 3 and pick-up were the ending of season 2 ended.


Also will there be a time jump between seasons 2 or 3 or is it just sari's new robotics making her taller and thus looking like a teenager.


It seems to me that the twin brothers Jetfire & Jetstorm wont be introduced into season 3 till way into the season.


It seems to me that this is just a thing to show us the fallout over season 2 cliffhanger ending and nothing will be kicking in until mid to the series final with all the new bots.


I am hoping I am wrong and we get to see Rodimus New Team and the New Decipticons in the season premier but I have a feeling they could be just saving them for a later time in season 3.

But it's still the same article, you just made minor changes to the format. The way you said it made it sound like it was going to be an article you made yourself, when it was not.

[Rodimus2006]

I cant wait almost less than a week now, it should go bye fairly quickly I mean I have waited almost a year now since season 2 ended.

I cant believe that season 3 is almost upon us, I just hope it remains as good as seasons 1 & 2 were and nothing has changed to much.


Also I hope that season 3 will live up to all the hype it has been building up since season 2 ended. Also I hope it will be able to back it up.


remember shows like Teen Titans they started out really good on the 1st 1 or 2 seasons then towards the series season finale they attend to suck or live the series unfinished.

This is only because I think they have DVD projects in the works for Teen Titans that will finish out the series were it last left off.

I am hoping if Animated Season 3 is indeed the grand finale of the show I hope they will be no loose ends, I hope it goes out with a good showing.


If it does end wierd they could make seperate future single dvd movie projects such as Transform & Roll Out or the upcoming "Transwarped" episode sort of how they are doing with the Futurama series, but it is my supreme hope that animated will continue for at least one more season after season 3 ends it runs.

I am just dont want animated ending with more questions than answers, leaving us all saying WTF!!!


Overall I cant wait to see what will be in store for us in season 3, how it will come together and how it will ultimately end.


But I suspect animated s3 will not end that quickly, and we can expect some repeated episodes until the new ones are completed so it could be druged out until this fall or early winter before season 3 will end.


But in the end i am hoping that these are rumors about animated ending after this season.

The Judas Contract is not supposed to follow the series.

Not likely. Most cartoon don't air until all episode are complete or very near completion. The only exceptions are South Park, of which an entire episode is made in about a week, while a normal cartoon episode is done in several months.

[Rodimus2006]

Umm remember in season 2 they were alot of repeated episodes, also they didnt show all the new episodes right away either.


I suspect that this will stil be the case with s3. They will show 4 or 5 new episodes then they will run reuns then flip back animated to the previous seasons until the newer episodes of animated season 3 are done.

[Shadowman]

Uh, no, they did not. I looked over the original airdates for each of them and there was never more than two weeks between any original airdate, and only three or four "rerun days". Check your facts next time.

I suspect that this will stil be the case with s3. They will show 4 or 5 new episodes then they will run reuns then flip back animated to the previous seasons until the newer episodes of animated season 3 are done.

By the time they start the season, the episodes WILL be finished.

But because of the link to the page acted as a citation, it's not plagarism or something like that.

I didn't put it in quote tags because they make the text size so much smaller than it's regular size, and this was such big news that I didn't want to reduce the font size by putting it in quote tags.

But if you really really want me to put them in quote tags, I may if I must.

[Shadowman]

I'm not saying it's plagiarism. I'm saying saying the way you said "it was said here too" implied it was going to be a different article as the body of the post.

Oh. Well, when I said that, I meant "here" as in the message being "here in this thread on Seibertron.com" as well as being at TFormers.com

[Rodimus2006]

Look I am just glad that it is almost time for animated to be back on finally after all this long waiting.


It is going to be an awesome year for Transformers, Animated is back on, Revenge of the Fallen is coming out, and a possible re-release of the old Generation 1 DVD sets we have been waiting on ever since the older Rhino sets got discontinued.

This is a great time for any transformer fan for hardcore fans such as myself to the newbees wanting something diffrent to watch.


But I suspect after animated s3 and Revenge comes out that TF might be taking a break for awhile but this is my guess but Mr. Bay did say he would be taking a year off before work on TF 3 will or if it begins.


But I hope that other TF shows that have never been on DVD will get a chance to shine such as RiD but that looks like it will never happen.

[Sabrblade]

Say, does anyone here remember back when the first movie and its toyline came out; how long after the movie and its toyline were released did we first hear about Animated (back then called "Transformers: Heroes")?

Cuz, that might give us an idea of how long after ROTF we'll have to wait before hearing about the next TF franchise.

So, how long was it?

[Tekka]

Searching through the news, I see the first Transformers Heroes rumour was in December 2006.

So using that as a reliable time frame doesn't seem feasible, considering where we are now.

Then how about the first confirmation of Animated/Heroes, instead of the first rumor?
