Well, I would have thought so, too. But what is very interesting to me was that I always thought that Strongarm is the spiritual successor to Arcee, Grimlock to Bulkhead, Fixit to Ratchet, and Sideswipe to Rodimus, due to their personalities and their duties. Would you rather consider these as such?

But you were naming Prime characters. Why name Rodimus instead of Smokescreen?psj333 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Uh, Rodimus wasn't in TF: Prime.
You're right that Rodimus wasn't in Prime. But in case you haven't noticed, this Sideswipe is not the same one from G1, despite their G1 looks and colors. RID Sideswipe's personality is much more related to Rodimus (otherwise known as Hot Rod), which is why he is the spiritual successor to Rodimus.

This is not confirmation of anything except of how they're soliciting the product to TV networks.o.supreme wrote:This is not an official statement from Hasbro?

Yeah, I like how the new cast is more fun than the old cast, allowing them to get into more mischief and antics and butt heads with each other more often, whereas Team Prime only really got that kind of good stuff when the wonderfulness that was Smokescreen joined up.JoeMabbon wrote:I thought the characters were intended to be polar opposites of Team Prime in that they are less experienced and reserved than their earlier counterparts, which would reflect the vastly different tone and outlook of the series.

He was the best Autobot in the show.

Autobots and Decepticons ‘Roll Out’ on Cartoon Network in First Quarter of 2016
BURBANK, C.A. - January 13, 2015 - Hasbro Studios, the Los Angeles-based entertainment division of Hasbro, Inc. (NASDAQ: HAS), announced today that the popular kids television series Transformers: Robots in Disguise will return for a second season on Cartoon Network in the U.S., which consistently ranks as a top-rated network in Total Day for kids ages 6-11. The latest installment in the global TRANSFORMERS franchise will debut its second season in the first quarter of 2016.
"Transformers: Robots in Disguise continues to be a massive hit with kids across the country, launching with an outstanding debut season on Cartoon Network," said Hasbro’s Executive Vice President and Chief Content Officer Stephen Davis. "Season two will bring back Bumblebee and his Autobots team for all new action-packed battles, fun-filled adventures and other humorous new characters with vibrant personalities that made season one a hit with kids. We continue to listen to our viewers’ feedback and are bringing back many fan-favorite characters, as well as some great surprises we know kids of all ages are going to love."
Set years after "Transformers: Prime," Robots in Disguise stars the lovable Bumblebee character, summoned by Optimus Prime to lead in a fight to save Earth from a new faction of escaped Decepticon prisoners by assembling a rogue team of unlikely Autobot heroes to capture their new enemies. Season two will see the return of a more confident, battle-tested Bumblebee as the leader of the Autobots, including his teammates Grimlock, Sideswipe, Strongarm, Fixit, Windblade and Drift. Protecting Earth becomes a mighty task as the team prepares to battle against menacing pairs of Cyclone Mini-Cons, who partner with Deployers to unleash the most powerful attacks and wreak even more destruction than ever. Our hero Bumblebee and his team prepare for battle with new power-ups and mini-con allies of their own, as they maintain their mission to protect the planet as robots in disguise. The series will continue to celebrate the continuous underlying themes of teamwork, companionship and the importance of standing up to wrongdoers.
The highly innovative TRANSFORMERS franchise is one of the largest global brands, spanning across television, film, consumer products and digital entertainment properties including gaming, apps, publishing, transmedia events, toys and licensing.
