Same here.
Bulkhead and Ratchet are a little funky though. Bumblebee, well, he rocks.

I undertsand everyone has their own opnions and all and I accept that but for a majority of the opnions I hear they are all whiney, jeez I can't see whats sooo bad about this.

The designs are well....different but not bad, at least they look somewhat like transformers and not some blob or something TOO random.

If the animation is done by the same team who did Teen Titans then, HELL YEAH, they are not exactly crappy animators are they, Teen Titans had some of the most fluid animation I've seen on Tv and hopefully it will be the same in the new cartoon.

Plotwise, with the whole humans being the dominant villains,yes it kinda takes away from the whole civil war thing, but perhaps this might lead to something much larger and with writers from x men I'm sure they can come up with a good storyline to work alongside the stand alone eps.

my only problem would be the toys, but I don't mind as much as I'm more into the media side of the transformers.

Here's a question: Hasbro has got to be tired of us fans bitching, yes? And I'm sure most of us are tired bitching, yes? So here's the question: Why the HELL don't Hasbro just give us the G1 continuation we've been wanting for the past 20 bloody years?! I don't care if they can't get all the voice actors, I don't care if they're gonna make Season 3 and 4, and the Movie an alternate reality style thing, just give us our damn G1 so we can stop the criticism of everything!

Most people don't want a continuation of G1. Hell I loved the Beast series and I don't even want that to be continued. Most people just want a Transformers show that looks good, and has a good storyline. And it's been four different series since we had that with Beast Machines.

1) Sure, their proportions aren't square, but that's to be expected. Transformers have been less and less boxy since G1.
2) Oh, so I take it you saw the "animation" through your time machine? Let me borrow it, k?
3)That's exactly what the hell they are, in every show. Underage'd bait, much?

1. yeah you're totally right...



2. Yeah It's called Teen Titans. You can also tell through the plain warped box-like designs that they're keeping it cheap.
3. No. Cartoon Network has even stated that they are re-imaging the Transformers to relate to children and place them in situations where the Autobots save the humans in everyday situations not from the Decpticons like is has been for the past 23 years. Is has changed.

Satanatron is the only other person in this thread with sence, it seems. Unless I'm missing a few, and if I am, I apologize. lol

Why? because he takes the same stance as you do you? maybe you should get off your high horse and top trying to bash people into seeing your way.
Leave Godzilla alone he's a very mighty poster. English isn't Godzilla's first language so don't pick on him. Godzilla is from Japan after all and he is a giant reptile.
Skywarp-2 writes a novel most every time he posts and not once does he ramble or fall off track and you call him dumb? Haven't you enjoyed your week and a half here? You feel you need to start a revolution and boss everyone into your way of thinking? do you feel such a need to call people they're dumb by putting words into their mouth and constantly mis-comprehending everyone's plain as day statements so you can make yourself look witty and intellectual? angst much? Just settle down and try to get along.

Yay, flamewar!
Who's got the marshmallows?

Transformers meets Ninja turtles meets trash.

Pathetic. You're not even worth the effort. I laughed when you said I enjoyed my "week and a half here". Yea, so I dont post a million times a day like yourself (mostly crap, judging by your post). You can have your 800 posts. Still doesn't make you any smarter.

ZING.

But by all means, please continue to cry about how this isn't G1. I'm loving it.

Hmmm.... I reserve judgement until I see a toy and watch an episode of the show.

What, no Decepticons? Take the Decepticons out completely and it ain't Transformer as we know it. There has always been a rival group, no matter what they're called. I'm trying to be open-minded, but that's a MAJOR change.

Haha, don't you understand how it works, yet? We criticize, and condemn everything from the start, prior to actually seeing any of it. All we need is one image.

Using our Trans-warping time machines, we can go into the future, watch the entire 26 + episodic series, form an opinion, and then proceed to come back to present time, and post about how poopy it was.

No G1, no fun, yo.

Where the hell are you guys getting your information from? 2 Decepticons have already been confirmed for the series.

Sweet! In some cases I love being wrong.

Yeah... I'd forgotten as well, but as was pointed out in another thread, we already know that Megatron and Starscream are going to turn up, because we also know that Corey Burton (G1 Shockwave, Brawn, Spike, Skyfire etc) and Tom Kenny have been hired to voice them.

I like it. It is different, but for some reason I really enjoy the new look. The only thing I don't like is another Firetruckimus Prime. I miss the semi-truck. I love the line-up, but I wish bulkhead was named Hound.

oh lord.....

Viral is one of the animators and developers for this series, he's trying to tear down anyone who hates this shows new look, and he secretly has a complex about it not looking anything like G-1 because he wants to make a name for himself as being different.. only problem is ...(whispers soflty) It's a rehash of G-1.. shhhhhhh...

Also he's trying to tell us something with that name choice and hints dropped during "flame wars" where his Froydian slips come out....

I sight his obvious hatred of Generation One:

Viral wrote: G1 was almost 20 years ago. Let it go. Stop holding on to what it was, and what it did, as some kind of weird standard for everything following it. I watched it (as a kid), and I loved it for what it was. An animated toy line. G1 didn't take itself too serious until the film, and that was cool.

- Optimus just may not be a truck, and Megatron may not be a freaking Walter pistol. It's not a hard concept to grasp. The Transformers aren't their G1 earth-modes. They are whatever the hell the current writers decide they are. Deal with it. Leave your G1 fetishes somewhere else. ..

Fetishes? Viral??

Viral wrote:Will you 'tards reserve your angry transfag hate, until the show actually airs? Or at least, at LEAST until some actual footage is soon. Goodness, you guys make me sick.

It's like a train of Lemmings.

Transfag?? lemmings? Viral??


Dude are you trying to tell us something about you personally???


Viral....cough.....cough... infection....cough....cough....

Dammit IO need to get in this flame war! **** u Viral!

I'm confused, and appalled, at the same time.

Agreed, ditch the fire truck and rename Bulkhead Hound. Actually, I thought that was Hound before I read that press release.

It won't be the first time I assure you...move on.. get over it.. its not G-1.. .oops.. sorry.. you have the franchise on that saying...

What the hell is that Houndnox? A combo of Hound and Rhynox?

This is silly!

Bulkhead looks like Crumplezone!
...and Prowl is a MOTORCYCLE?! What the Hell?!

i have a bad feeling that this is gonna be even worse than the Jap series. They're probably gonna focus more on the "Super" rather than the "Robot"
