huh wonder who Knockout is maybe a Lugnut homage or something
I am in need of another missle for my energon Starscram and a wing for my Armada Terrorsaur the one with his name on it if anyone has spares of these items that they don't need please PM me
Finally.... FINALLY The Rock has come togeather with Transformers! The Peoples Champion and The Robots in Disguise are in the same show at the same time and... wait, The Fires Of Inferno was never waiting for that. The Fires Of Inferno was a little more eager to hear about the rest of the cast not this jabroni. But... um...why... in the BLUE HELL, are there more humans than Decepticons? That aint' right at all. I mean you got five candy ass Autobots and four jabroni beatin' pie eatin' trail blaizin' eyebrow raisin' all around smacken' down Decepticons! Then you got half a dozen pink squishy guys. Doesn't really work for The Fires Of Inferno.
K, I'm done being a douche.
No I'm not.
IF YA SMEEEEEELLLLLLLL-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LAAA WHAT THE FIRES OF INFERNO IS COOKING!!
I'd say it was really a star-studded cast for a cartoon, but there's a Baldwin brother in there..
It finally happened. The Chicago Cubs won the World Series. Yes, I cried.

Maybe Cliff Jumper will do the people's elbow or the rock bottom on the decipticons instead of the Smackdown Hotel it is now the Cyberton Hotel.
Look this is just the 1st season of Prime they will more than likely be more bots introduced as the seasons get longer look at previous shows they always started out with a few bots on them such as Animated or Armada then as they go on thier teams increased.
Usually this serves as plot devices for that show to introduce new characters expect the same treatment for Prime.
Prime is scheduled to be 65 episodes but if Prime does good maybe beyond that depends on the ratings or could be the next Animated be axed without no real conclusion.
I am looking forward to Prime just worried about thier Transformations and how they will sould also curious about what kind of powers they will have.
So far Ratchet looks awesome and I dig Arcee curious to see thier personalities devolop on the show and see them grow and change over the seasons.
My guess on how many seasons 3 also dont expect all 26 episodes of Prime to air at once 13 one part then other 13 next part.
Easy, man. Adam Baldwin is legit. As to the other Baldwins, I'll leave that up to you, but Adam does good work as both an on-screen and voice actor.
Anyways, this seems like all good news except all the number of humans. I have this weird concept in my mind that the Transformers were the main focus of....well...Transformers.

65 episodes? good. that gives me pleanty of time to perfect my ideas and pitch for a transformers show to hasbro.
Ok, I was looking at the cast list, Peter Cullen and Frank Welker - fantastic, Dwayne Johnson - eh, but then I saw something amazing, Ernie Hudson. OMG, Ernie Hudson is in it!!!!! Winston Zeddemore is one of my childhood hero's. Transformers and Ghostbusters were my favorite things as a child and now they are combined (kinda).
Watch the first of my youtube series, Friends Transform.
wow really the rock i read hes was going to be in new gijoe series now trasnfromers to how does he have time to do both by the way i like some of his disney movies but im glad to see him to do more adult movies now
assembling a Neo-G1/TF:TM cast. Please PM if you have (or know of) the following at a reasonable price: Classics or Henkei Astrotrain, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, or 3rd Party iGear Ratchet and Ironhide. Also looking for Universe Repugnus and Overbite, Frostbite and Longhorn and any Webdiver toys.
I was waiting for the "too many humans" compaint to pop up. Can anyone tell me how many humans were in G1? Anyone? Anyone? There were FIVE regular human characters, two of which were in virtually every episode.
How many human characters were in Animated? A ton more than 5. Most of the villains were human, but there were three humans in every episode- Fanzone, Sumdac, and Sari.
Wait until you see how it's written before you poopoo the number of humans.
It finally happened. The Chicago Cubs won the World Series. Yes, I cried.

It's about the robots not about the humans Hasbro jeez.
The logic escapes me. They have already said that the story takes place on Earth. So, let's try and make a cartoon on Earth that completely avoids the 6.5 billion people on it.

The Rock are you kidding me? Lat voice acting gig i heard him do wasnt that great. And why are there so many damn humans? Hasbro needs to get the show off earth.

didnt they say Cliffjumper was supposed to transform into some sort of muscle car (instead of just a repaint of bumblebee for once) I guess the people who cast TF:Prime thought a muscle car and The Rock would make a crazy sort of sense
Im secretly plannin to take over the world... care for a country?
