I take back what I said before...I like these images. They said it was going to look teen titain-ish...and it does.

All I can say at this point is, the animation better be f***ing spectacular, because this art style and that story setup are not enticing me to watch.

The guy that designed this really had the fortitude to make such radical changes. What on, Dude! Riddle me this, are the toys gonna translate from the show? If so AWESOMATED!!!

by **lamartherevenger** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 4:38 pm

one thing... Bulkhead looks like Crunch from Mighty Orbots! oh yeah...

The big one looks Hound and Ironhide tried to do that fusion technique from DBZ and failed. And Bumblebee's face looks exaclty like Robin's helmit. I wonder who the bike is gonna be.

Yeah, I noticed the lights too. I hope they don't make this too Power Ranger-ish. But I have a funny feeling all five of these bots will form some kind of gestalt.

Come on people it can't be that bad
look how clone wars turned out, everybody
liked it, why should this be any different
I think it brings back that feel of when I was 8
watching cartoons.

I'm so-so on the art style for the new show still, but I will say this. If the toys look like traditional Transformers and don't try to mimic the proportions and overall look, those designs might have a LOT of potential as toys.

This poster begs the question: Who the hell is anyone at hasbro going to make a geometrically impossible to design transforming toy of these LSD misfits?

Bumblebee does have a mouth. He's just smirking. And if there is a God, then, no, Wheelie will never ever ever ever ever ever be in another Transformers series. That bike is Prowl, for sure. The forehead, chevrons, "wings" (although they're not on his back), and police-based alt mode all point to Prowl. Hooray! His design is kickass. I haven't really liked the designs for Prowl. RiD just didn't scream Prowl to me, and Energon Prowl was ridiculous.

Ratchet? ?????? Bumblebee? What happened to them? This makes me scared to see what the Decepticons look like..........

Ok.. so I just won't watch the series. I just pray the toy line makes up for this with some kick-ass toys that are so far removed from the pictures on this poster that they look good.

Well, I said in the first post of artwork that I would hold judgement til I saw more, and quite honestly, now that I have seen this, I am going to join the side that says they are looking forward to this. I think it has a ton of potential. I feel that the designs, as cartoony as they may be, show a lot more CHARACTER than we've seen in recent years. My problem with the cg on Beast Wars was that it was very cold and didn't allow the characters to show a lot of emotion. G1 had those classic moments of facial expression which was missing from later shows. As long as it's a well written action show, I'm gonna be happy.

by **Sickshot** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 5:26 pm

(neutral) I little better. At least the proportions aren't all that bad. I'm just a bit afraid to see the 'Cons...

by **FZStrider** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 5:29 pm

I thought Hasbro kiddifying the Jap transformers cartoons was bad enough. This poster has just killed my love for the show.

OH.....GOD.....NO. :-s

The writing better be New York best seller list quality, or this is gonna go the way of the Unicron trilogy.

A funny side note, my mom walked by and saw the pic and asked, "Why do they look all 5th graderish?" Thought that was pretty funny.

Wow that looks really.....crap.

Sad all Hasbro can come up is this. Hope they cancel tehj show and give us something more like G1.

by **ralphatron** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 5:46 pm

Hate it. Not my style at all.

Defensive statements in regards to Movie designs, "I know the designs are weird, but it's supposed to be realistic! The fandom will adjust."

I do not care what anyone else thinks.... i love it.

I've followed Transformers pretty much all my life, through the ups and downs...and i absolutely love it. Such great style and it is more dynamic that anything produced in years. This series is going to be absolutely fantastic in every way.

Optimus is the worst of he bunch, thankfully. I may be able to live with this, though I still hope they go with something less exaggerated for the show after this.

The action figures will not look appealing.

by **Burnup Prime** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 6:27 pm

Who the heck came up with the idea for bulkhead?

News Credits: 1 · by **Judge Deliberata** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 6:29 pm

Ew. Again, no thanks. Something gives me the feeling Megatron's arm cannon is going to be the size of a football field, and Starscream will have a wingspan capable of cooling off a city when he turns around.
