So it's basically Blackarachnia with a different name.

Cool, another Blackaracknia! I love seeing my favorite Fembot again! :APPLAUSE:

Why her and not Tarantulas? I hated Blackarachnia! :BOOM:

Arachnid?

Hopefully that's just a place holder for Blackarachnia. If it is, I love how much attention she's been getting, at least one Beast Wars character continues to live on. There are others who deserve as much.....

We're saying it IS Blackarachnia, just with a different name (likely so Hasbro can secure the trademark for the name "Airachnid").

The episode description calls the new character Airachnid (awful name).

PLEASE have less humans in this episode. I wasted 3 weeks of my life waiting for that last episode that focused mainly on humans.

Yeah, I felt like last episode was pretty weak too, but every show has one at least once in a while. Overall I think this is turning out to be a pretty good series and "Predatory" looks promising. I am ready for the dark energon and Megatron story to come back though.

I told you months ago that this new Decipticon was indeed female but you told me I was wrong cause I didnt post my proof of my findings.

Well I am right and there is the proof of what I found.

I said months ago that they are going to reveal a new female decipticon and this is going to be her.

Also I knew ahead of time that this was going to be a female caue of her fueding with Arcee the 2 must have past history together.

This isnt Blackarahnia from Beast Wars or Animated but does look somwhat similar this is a new character made for Prime.

Like with Breakout & Knockdown this is another new transformers introduced for this series.

You mean Knock Out and Breakdown?

Please tell me she'll be sexy, like BW Blackarachnia

by **Red 50** » Mon Apr 11, 2011 12:31 pm

Does that mean that there's gonna be a chick-fight?

Wouldn´t it be fun if Airachnid were the name of the ship? after all, Arcee points out that the vessel is very characteristic of the villainess.

I think that it would be weird to see a Blackarachnia type fem-bot without, well, being her.

Maybe Airachnia is a triple charger. She can turn into a giant spider and a spacecraft.

Should be pretty small spacecraft. Maybe if, then she would be just a small projectile able to move in the vacuum. Ya'know, like ROTF Ravage, only with thrusters.

So, I guess that Megs is still gonna be out of comission. Only progress is gonna be "cosmetic". (Poor Breakdown)

Purple. Gold. Black. The coloration screams Blackarachnia. The crap name is just so they can secure the trademark for it.

Actually they tried to trademark Airachnid last year and were denied.

as u may already know , I'm doing all this on my PS3, so its kinda slow-ish when it comes to this kinda thing. Anyway, can SOMEONE please tell me how to reply to other's comments? TO RED 50: It was Knockout, not Breakdown, who got a "Cosmetic Punishment" From Screamer

by **MINDVVIPE** » Sat Apr 16, 2011 3:29 am

Uh, not really on topic since I can't really even watch this video in my region, but...

Was just watching Deus Ex Machina again, and theres a cut in the editing that I think might signify how Megatron is reborn... although it could just be fancy camera work.

They close up on the image of the cybertronian Energon Harvester and while staring at it, they cut to a scene of megatron where he lies lifeless on the table, and the hole in his chest is exactly where the harvester is in the last frame... 4:43 minutes in.

EDIT: nvm... it blows up... false alarm... I forget the ending..false alarm.
