The Decepticons for this show are Steeljaw, Hammerstrike, Underbite, Bisk, Chop Shop, Terrashock, Thunderhoof, Filch, Springload, Ped, Quillfire, Fracture, and Clampdown. Which ones of these is the hothead of the Decepitcons?

The one that enjoys spicy barbecued pork.

[Nemesis Maximo]

does Thinderhoof have a personality that would be akin to if George Washington was an evil alien robot that turned into a tractor with death spikes?

Why is it all in caps? That's really annoying to read.

Just got clarification on this. Jeff Kline submitted the answers in all caps for some reason.

And who'd wanna retype all that he wrote?

They will do as they wish of course. Starting on S2 before S1 has even aired seems a bit presumptuous. Especially given how spotty their partnerships have been with Cartoon Network. It's not like they have a good track record for dealing well and fairly with their shows that are 'designed to sell toys'. They've already proven that they'll take a show that is good, quality, and enjoyable (exaggeratedcoughThundercats) and flush it down the trash hole for no good reason (exaggeratedcoughYoungJustice). Even if it's a show with a line of toys that are of equally excellent quality and are selling at a brisk pace (exaggeratedcoughTransformersAnimated).

Besides, Hasbro created an entire cable channel for the purpose of running only shows made to sell their toys and pimp their products, and it failed miserably (exaggeratedcoughTheHUB). How do they think to do any better when they have to go crawling back to a network that they treated like a peasant treats his compost fork?

Will the Decepticons that the Autobots just recently being captured will somehow escape so that they can be a full army once again?

from what ive seen so far it looks like steeljaw is indeed gathering them for his own private army pretty much seizing the opportunity while megatron is inactive

Because these Decepticons have animal-based robot modes, do they really have animal parts in them? In Transformers: Animated, Sentinel Prime refer to these bots as "Robots With Organic Modes".

Nah, they have chocolate and caramel fillings inside them instead.

Do they also have nougat, and maybe coconut?

If all other animal-based Decepticons have vehicle modes, why doesn't Filch have a vehicle mode? Will she ever scan a vehicle mode? If so, what is her supposed vehicle mode supposed to be? According to the show, these Decepticons generally already have their own vehicle modes. But when when they turn into robot modes, they seem to have animal-like characteristics or attributes. Except for Fracture, who is the only Decepticon that is completely humanoid.

Filch will eventually ditch her bird altmode by scanning a sandwich.

[psj333]

Sabrblade, I think you`re actually referring to Filch scanning some type of a plane after she gets rid of her bird mode. But my question remains is what kind of plane would she be?

A paper plane.

In some animated series news from the Old World, both the UK and Germany have a confirmed (more or less) airing date for the upcoming Robots in Disguise! According to ToonZone.net, as of 7th March, Cartoon Network UK will start showing the new series, with a new episode shown twice each weekend. Starblight.de, on the other hand, simply confirms the month of March, without a set date yet. How long can it be until we hear something certain for the US too?

Saturday 7th sees the UK premiere of the new series Transformers: Robots in Disguise. Continuing where Transformers: Prime left off, Bumblebee now finds himself leading a ragtag team of new Autobots in a mission to round up the escapees of a Decepticon prison ship which has crashed on Earth. Episodes will air weekends at 10:30am and 6:30pm.

[Sabrblade]

It's at least the same month as the U.S. premiere (according to the report from UK Toy Fair). We just need an exact date for it.

[Ravage XK]

Shame it's on not on a channel that most people can see.

*shrug* Tis what happens when Cartoon Network buys the global broadcasting right to the series.

I think we're well past the days of tf airing on the 1-5 channels. Though Beast Wars was the last tf to air on terrestial tv.

We all know that Bumblebee and Bisk are both muscle cars. But is Bisk much bigger and taller than Bumblebee? Obviously, I'm very interested to see what Bisk's altmode might be like once he hits in the New York Toy Fair on February 14, 2015.

[Sabrblade]

Bisk is the size of the Moon.

[psj333]

Sabrablade, are you actually saying that Bisk is much bigger and taller than Bumbleebee? I wonder if the Decepticon skunk named, Stench will indeed show up that the Toy Fair this month. Because skunks are small and slender, it is likely that Stench's vehicle mode will be some kind of a motorcycle? But is the motorcycle the actual altmode for Stench, or is he a car, just like, Bisk and Clampdown are?

[Sabrblade]

Sabrablade, are you actually saying that Bisk is much bigger and taller than Bumbleebee?

Not anymore. He ate himself.

Stench isn't confirmed to be his name. That's the Chinese name.

And he turns into a pumpkin.

[psj333]

You know, Sabrablade, you seemed to love to associate food as robots' altmodes when you know that's not true. Quit playing games here, and let's get straight to the point here! These animal-based Decepticons already have their own vehicle modes. When you say that Bisk is about the size of a moon, are you actually meant that he was much bigger and taller than Bumblebee himself? Also, Stench or whatever the name that Hasbro gave to the Decepticon skunk, is not a pumpkin. He has to be a vehicle of some sorts. Is he really a motorcycle or a car? Quit associating Transformer with food ever again!
