Here we go! The podcast crew gives their thoughts on the recently released on Netflix show. This is the 3rd installment (and final) in the War for Cybertron series. How did the mixing of vehicles and beasts fair? Was the ending of the series satisfying? We'll share our ideas and we'd love to hear yours.

Episode #281 “Netflix Kingdom Reviewed” is available directly and in our RSS Feed, and should appear on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher Radio and many other Podcatcher sites within 24 to 48 hours of when you see this news post.

Wazzpinator say spoilerzzz ahead… biggezzt spoiler… WAZZPINATOR iZ not in show. Makes Wazzzpinator angry. Stupid rat bot, and bird bot are in it, even car and truck bots, but NOOOOO not the beZt bot. Two cat botzz, but no wazzzp bot.

Puny human hozt ScottyP reviewzzz and dizcuzzes thiz non-showz episodezzz with silly ghozt bot, Mzr. Starscream, and another stupid cat or car bot, Wazzpinator not know, Tigertrack… they say watch and share…Wazpinator not agree.

Silliness aside, if you want to actually listen to the review by the human crew with each episode broken down by ScottyP with insights and comments from guests- the radiant Mr. Starscream, and the long-missing Tigertrack- give the show a listen despite the fact that Waspinator hates KINGDOM and that there is indeed, no Waspinator in any of the episodes. We do not hold back, so other secrets of the series are spoiled as well.

SPOILERS A PLENTY LISTENERS!



Specifically we talk discuss topics related to voice acting, animation and transformations, character expectations versus character realities, and of course, how does it fair as the capstone to the WFC series. Plenty of things to like and also some things to criticize, as well. And yes, we ran out of time to talk about everything.

We finish up with bragging rights related to the recently released BUZZWORTHY BUMBLEBEE: BUMBLEBEE ORIGINS toy and the KINGDOM: RODIMUS PRIME toy.

Please share your thoughts, insights, likes and dislikes for the third installment of the WFC series below! Chime in on our thoughts and take us further in directions we didn't think of! We’d love to hear your ideas.

NOTE: You can also check out ScottyP's mostly spoiler free written review of the new chapter here.

It was terrible. Just like the previous two. Dinobot was pretty bad but who decided Beast Megs would be a snivelling toady? And his voice actor was just awful! I would love to see a new Beast Wars done right and this most certainly was not it.

BG, I don't think anyone disagrees with you based on what we previously expect from BWars. B Megs and Optimus Prime were both poor representations of the originals that we expect. But different creative group, different focus, different purpose for characters. Sucks not seeing your favorites done right when they do make it into the current media.

I hear that. Just a different creative team does not really excuse piss poor writing and VA work, which has been evident across all three thus far.

I'm all for new media, I just wish they'd give em a decent budget and writing team. S'why I liked Prime. Good writing, VA and character roster.
