I don't see how him being a Skyquake redeco would affect the voice actor.Hypershock wrote:Sabrblade wrote:why would Dreadwing looking like this stop Tony Todd from voicing him?Hypershock wrote:i wish that wasn't him i almost think its not, cuz ive heard that tony todd is guna voice dreadwing, so...... i dunno
because youd think he would get a unique mold (or at least i hoped he would), that mold up there is a repaint of skyquake

All the bug elements, plus the flying insect altmode, lead more credence to it being an Insecticon.SlyTF1 wrote:I hope the new guy is Shockwave. Because he's still back on Cybertron. And in G1, Shoakcwave was left back on Cybertron by Megatron, so if It's not just some random steroid induced drone, I think there's a pretty good chance of it being Shockwave. Then again, I'd expect him to have a circular eye since Prime never strays too far from the original designs with more iconic characters.

Goddammit, now I can't unsee it.
Then explain how Bumblebee and Ratchet have also been involved in the same war for just as long as Optimus, and yet they can still express wide ranges of emotions and personality aspects.

Agreed! Jack is the one character who has gotten the most development out of all the good guys in the show.First-Aid wrote:Another little note i thought of: the series has spent a great deal of time exploring the relationship of the kids and their Autobot counterparts. I may be in the minority, but I am very impressed with what they have done with Jack's character. Jack has earned the attention of Prime as a mentor and Arcee as a sister-figure, as well as seeing the other two kids look to him as a leader.
That's a... sketchy territory to get into.First-Aid wrote:I suspect that we will see teenage romance complicate things in season 2...

The thing that bothers me about him is that, the way Hasbro's going about this continuity, we see two points in Optimus' life (the past and the present), and by showing us how he'll turn out to be in the present, we have yet to see how and why he grew into being this kind of stoic that he's become, and we now see that any and all of his ancient past portrayals will only amount to him becoming a bore. By making him uninteresting, it ruins any potential for his past self to grow to become a great character after the games and novels, and a lack of exposure to his more recent history makes his present self just come off as being bland.First-Aid wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Then explain how Bumblebee and Ratchet have also been involved in the same war for just as long as Optimus, and yet they can still express wide ranges of emotions and personality aspects.

Easy. Neither Bumblebee nor Ratchet have had the burden of leadership, neither do they feel the responsibility for Cybertron's condition as much as Prime would. If this timeline is correct (in that Shockwave discovers dinosaurs as mentioned in the FoC backstory for Grimlock), then that means Prime will have held the burder of leadership for even more than the original G1 Prime...assuming that Shockwave viewed dinosaurs in real time at the same time as he created Grimlock and the others...around 75 million years. Even if not that long, his world is far different than the G1 Cybertron and as such his character will be completely different from G1 Prime so we can't compare that character to this one. He would have to suppress soo much emotion it could give him a very stoic, emotionless demeanor. Think of it as a Vulcan version of Optimus, having to suppress emotions in order to not be overwhelmed by them.
