Because he is a Dinobot, his beast mode is in fact a dinosaur. Unfortunately, for him, he does not have a robot mode. According to ToyArk.com, the Dinobot that will be part of Bumbleebee's team will be Grimlock, which is actually a Underbite repaint, only green instead of purple. As reported earlier, the Dinobots will show up in the 2015 cartoon. Because of the forms that Underbite and Grimlock took, does that mean that the Dinobots will all have vehicle modes, but abandon their robot modes, or these features are only reserved for Underbite and Grimlock?
We are not assuming. We were told she is a female at SDCC, and she plainly has lipstick lips on her face in the preview video.Balgus82 wrote:And why are people assuming that Strongarm is female? Certainly doesn't look female.

Lipstick on his face eh? talk about mixed messages plus strongarm has been said to be a female bodybuilder, hence the not usual fembot look.

Think cartoon animation like Spider-Man: The New Animated Series, Dragon Booster, Di-Gata Defenders, Speed Racer: The Next Generation, Iron Man: Armored Adventures, Tron: Uprising, etc.
The differences this time is that it's western animation rather than anime. And, this time, it looks to be all cel-shaded CGI rather than half cel-shaded CGI/half 2D.JetOptimus23 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:It's not 2D.

The last outing Transformers had with Cel Shaded CGI didn't go so well, though once again I withhold judgement. I'm cautiously optimistic about this series. Hope it doesn't come back to bite me.

The only real issue people took with the animation of Transformers Go! was its lack of facial expressions for the robot characters.
Cybertron was cel-shaded CGI too. Just lightyears better than Energon's.JetOptimus23 wrote:I was referring to Energon but yeah.
All depends on the writing quality, as this is the same team who gave us Prime and Rescue Bots, and both of them were/are of a particularly high caliber.JetOptimus23 wrote:I dunno maybe It'll be like TFA; it looks weird at first but I'll end up growing to love it.

The secret project I announced earlier can be shared. I am co-scoring the upcoming animated series Transformers: Robots in Disguise. I am excited to be co- scoring the show with renown composer Kevin Kiner (CSI Miami, Hell on Wheels, Clone Wars)

Pfft, "bodybuilder".Metro Prime wrote:It's funny how people on both Seibertron and TFW2005 keep calling Strongarm (who's basically a larger version of TF:Prime Arcee) a bodybuilder and comparing her to Strika (who barely looks humanoid, let alone feminine) simply because she isn't another generic super-thin fembot.

Beast Machines Optimus Primal looked like a bodybuilder. Strongarm's just got a standard non-supermodel body.
