For what it's worth, I got the joke.

[PrymeStriker]

Robots in disguise....in disguise.

And so Warpath can't be in disguise at a military base? And what makes you think Warpath will be in Prime?

that's a nice pic, what's it from?

Because nobody can figure it out: War for Cybertron.

Which is still true; you hide your login status.

Like a boss.

Shall we return to the topic at hand, or a new one?

I can't wait to see Smokescreen tonight.

Indeed, it will be interesting to see how they bring him into the fold.

And I hope he sticks around. I'd like to have 7 Main Cast Autobots (Yes, 7. I'm starting to consider Wheeljack part of the main cast. Just a few more episodes, Jackie. Please).

[Sabrblade]

Yeah, yeah, Primes don't party, what else is new?

[Shadowman]

Yeah, yeah, Primes don't party, what else is new?

You clearly did not know Prima very well. First Prime, yes, first Matrix Bearer, sure. But what they don't tell you is that he was also the inventor of the keg stand.

Yeah, but he intended it to be for medicinal and aerobic purposes, then Amalgamous got an idea and made it what it is today (but crediting Prima as his inspiration).

Hence the Kegerator (keg refrigerator) ... He's secretly another robot in disguise, and personal assistant to Prima lol

[BeastProwl]

A Keg Refrigerator?
That can be TF Prime Cosmos your talking about, hell anything's an improvement over the original IMO.

Episode 44 - "New Recruit"

I almost wet my pants when the episode started!

*The sightings of Bumblebee & Arcee from NYC were on the internet. Raf replaced them with funny pictures.

Anything else new? And, hi, Jack & Raf!

*Raf found a Cybertronion escape pod photo on the web. The Autobots investigate and find it to be a Decepticon pod.

Hmm. Ratchet's pretty pissed off at Wheeljack. And a Red 'con symbol? Epic sauce!

*Smokescreen comes to aid the Autobots against the Insecticons and Vehicons

SMOKIE!!!!!!! Smokey, Smokie, whatever.

*Smokescreen was under training of the Elite Guard. He was assigned to guard Alpha Trion at the Hall of Records during the final days of the war.

THE ELITE GUARD! Oh my god, so many HOMAGES! Pfft, Warpath

Exodus reference. This is my favorite episode now.

*When the Decepticons stormed Iacon, Smokescreen was the last line of defense. But he ultimately was defeated and taken prisoner.

*Smokescreen escaped and used the Decepticon stasis pod to arrive on Earth.

So the Decepticons didn't come out of the clown car. C00l.

*Jack gives Smokescreen a tour of the base

And hence, we have Jack's new partner. Temporarily of course.

*Starscream was surfing Google Images when he found a picture of Red Energon

*Red Energon possesses the power to give Cybertronians hyper-speed.

Hmm. That's cool. And looks like Starscream took off his Apex Armor. Luckily, he still has it in his possession.

What the hell? They have the Immobilizer? I thought that got blasted to a million pieces? I'm confused now.

Oh hi, Airachnid. Enjoying your new room?

*Bulkhead is jealous of Smokescreen

I expected this

*Smokescreen mentioned Constructicons after seeing a Cement Truck

We will definitely see the Constructicons in Prime. I swear.

*Smokescreen used the Phase Shifter to get Starscream out of his Apex Armor

Smart ass

*Starscream got the Red Energon, and Smokescreen helped the Autobots gain the Apex Armor. Smokescreen is now part of Team Prime.

Anyone noticed Smokescreen's Elite Guard logos are gone, and now he has the 38 symbols? I don't think he had the 38s before. I see Bulkhead using the Apex Armor in the future.

Great episode.

[nikkinavarro]

Awesome episode.
They are mad at wheeljack for putting Miko in danger. Not much of a surprise.
Smokescreen is cool. At least he got the Apex Armor.
Well now Starscream has the red energon.
Poor bulkhead he feels left out.
Well I loved the episode

That's because the 38s came after he got his vehicle mode

I know. It just shocked me, they don't usually change a whole lot between the Cybertronian and Earth kibble.

[BeastProwl]

Wow, for those of you expecting him to be a totally shallow personality, you were wrong. He is a bit shallow, but his backround and knowledge, along with his newbish attitude make him slightly smarter and less obnoxious than Hotshot, and a crapton more interesting. He can think on his toes.

My only question is, how exactly was he able to go through the Apex armor, but not Starscream?

If the Phase shifter can let the user choose what he goes through, I can see alot of medical benefits on ratchet's side of things.

Also, FINALLY! A BOT SMART ENOUGH TO USE THE RELICS!!!!

Have people actually been saying that?

Smokescreen is most likely going to go through character development, like Arcee and Jack, and I expect he'll go from the cocky new kid to something closer to Cliffjumper and Wheeljack; still brash and cocky, but with the skill and experience to back it up.

There were a few, yeah.

I hope so. I dont want him to go MIA in the next few episode, just to show up partway through the next season. I want him to stay.

They're making him out to be a permanent member of the team so far.

Cliffjumper was a permanent member of Team Prime before, and we all know what happened to him.

Truth be told, we don't know what's going to happen to Smokescreen, but I sure as hell hope he stays.



I've been thinking about epic upgrades for members of the 'Bots and 'Cons of Prime. We were told we would get them.

I think Bulkhead's going to be permanently handicapped in the next episode of Prime, even though he's recovering. We see Bulk and Smokey fighting Silas|Breakdown in the promo, wouldn't it be something if Bulkhead got shot again? What would he use to walk around? To fight? The Apex Armor. Apex Bulkhead anyone?

Breakdown needs to come back. He better. I loved him so much.
So, what if Breakdown was...upgraded into someone new. Someone completely forgotten. Someone like...Crumplezone. I'm just pickin' names. He doesn't have to act like Cybertron Crumplezone, although the dynamic between Breakdown and Knock Out sure mirrors Crumplezone and Ransack in my opinion.

I'm waiting for the day Soundwave gets that visor shattered. I also look forward to a Soundblast.

Smokescreen. I don't really want him to get upgraded. I know, a lot of people would think Hoist for an upgrade, but...we might just get Hoist in Rescue Bots.



It'd be nice if Ratchet was killed off. Not saying I hate Ratchet, he's my number 3 Autobot (yep, Smokescreen just topped Wheeljack AND Ratchet), but I want a new doc. First Aid? Red Alert?

Bumblebee can stay or go. He's actually more interesting in Prime than his movie counterpart. I don't know if Hasbro still has the rights to Goldbug, but they could put one of Bumblebee's redecos to good use (aside from Hot Shot).

I see Galvatron when Megatron gets this new arm.



I'd like to see Airachnid go Blackarachnia on this show.

That's all of my "upgrade" ideas. How long have I been rambling on?

[King Kuuga]

Okay, S2 ep 18. WOW. Smokescreen is nothing like I expected, but that's okay. I didn't expect much of anything. His background is impressive, and he's kind of cocky. Fitting for a young dude. Nice to see him make use of the relics. Speaking of relics, Starscream can take the Apex Armor on and off at will. Interesting. But does he have a T-Cog yet? The world may never know. And it seems Bulkhead's impairment is limited to his right leg. Very heavily damaged. At least that lets him be up and about without being combat-able. And MAN is he jealous of Smokescreen. This should make for some nice character growth in all parties involved.

Well, he has a T-Cog. He's just too wimpy to install it in himself.

I just don't hope that Smokescreen and Bulkhead become partners. I don't like Bulkhead, but I like Smokescreen. I don't want my favorite and least-favorite Autobots teaming up.

Then again, Wheeljack used to be my favorite.

Smokescreen should still stay away from Bulkhead.

[Noideaforaname]

Starscream laughing at that internet monkey thing
Almost makes up for the fact that Raf can inexplicably and effortlessly hack any website just to remove pics of BB. Almost.
