But Animated was the opposite case most of the time, with "cartoon models first, toys second". The only ones who did the old-school "toys first, cartoon models second" were Jetfire & Jetstorm (even though these two did have some preliminary Transformers: Hero designs and TFA bible designs, their finalized looks got made into toy form first) and Oil Slick.Kurona wrote:I just prefer when it's done well, like Beast Wars.

Just speaking purely in terms of to-sell-toys.

Even still, I don't think it works out very well in general. I found all of Beast Wars' stupid Transmetal crap distracting as hell, especially by the third season (Cheetor, Blackarachnia, and Primal looked ridiculous). However, on the plus side, the animaton improved as a result of it.

Possible... his voice actor was confirmed to be doing some voices

They're probably with the old friends Optimus mentioned. Since they left Earth with Prime, but Prime said that he never made it to Cybertron, Optimus probably left Windblade-tachi with the old friends to go back to Earth by himself for this mini-series, and now he's probably going back to where he came from to reunited with those three.Kurona wrote:I'm just wondering where the heck Windblade, Ratchet and Undertone are.

"-tachi" is a Japanese suffix used to refer to a collective group featuring a individual whose name gets singled out to refer to the group as a whole. In this case, I could have said "Windblade and co.", "Windblade and the others", "Windblade's group", etc.Kurona wrote:Windblade... tachi...?

I don't mind seeing Stormshot in the show. He's got a rather neat design. Blastwave and the rest can go screw off, though.

And with Windblade's inherently Japanese design, I was also making a half-joke.

Although I cannot personally confirm having seen it on CN, most reputable TV sites used for cataloguing episodes seem to indicate that it aired this past Saturday, also Amazon.com has the episode added to their list of digital episodes for purchase (says made available 10/21 however...possibly a typo?)

You mean the next one for U.S. air, or the start of season 3?Kurona wrote:Do we know when the next episode is?

I don't know for sure, I was able to watch it using OnDemand yesterday though. Decent episode, I think that RID is starting to grow on me more.
