Combiner Wars Megatron really reminded me of his portrayal in the old G2 comics which I liked.

No Brad Garrett as Trypticon?

Brad Garrett has long since moved on to bigger and better-paying things than to play a big dumb animal that any idiot could play in something as insignificant as this.

(Besides, Fred Tatasciore was the best Trypticon )

Behind the scenes video for the Titan Return cartoon - https://www.go90.com/videos/2wNK1gSk1rh

Whoa, what? Adam Beechen is writing this series?! An actual, real writer for television?!

Greetings Seibertronians, today we have a Behind the Scenes video for the new Titans Return Machinima series. Here's a quick run-down of the video:

-Recording process a reward with watching the actors act the writing out.
-New Actors! Familiar voices!
-Michael Dorn as Fortress Maximus
-Perceptor a very big highlight, played by Will Wheaton
-Peter Cullen back as Optimus Prime
-Judd Nelson back as Rodimus Prime
-Jason David Frank as Titan Master, Emissary. This is the first time we are seeing Titan Master Emissary animated, so this is truly exciting to see how they will be animated.

Titans Return is Coming November 14th to go90!

Be sure to click the image at the top to watch the video on the go90 platform if you are state-side. If you are outside of the US, a Youtube link is available.



Thanks to Sabrblade for pointing us in the right direction!

Wow, Judd Nelson looks like a hobo.

Nah, he's just still maintaining his look from BotCon 2016.

Seriously, can we get a go90 app on ps4 so I can watch this on my TV instead of my phone, just in case this is worthwhile. Or you know you could release it on youtube in the states as well.

No VA for Trypticon announced? So will he just be a Godzilla-like force of destruction without a voice/personality... I wonder how much it would cost just to use recycled Brad Garrett dialogue form various Season 3 episodes...?

actually looking forward to this.

hopefully theyve learned lessons from combiner wars. percy looks great in that still.

Yo, they got Tay Zonday working on a Transformers cartoon?

...Insert "Chocolate Rain" meme here.

Shame it's not a good writer.

Well we got a taste of the animation in that video and its still the same as last time. So for those who werent fond of it... sorry

It was mostly the framerate that was at the heart of the animation problems for Combiner Wars, so we'll need to see more of the animation to determine if the framerate has gotten better or not.

And the mouth movement. That too was jarring.

Perceptor's head looks very, uh. Wide.

As we get closer and closer to November 14th, we're starting to see more and more promotional materials for Machinima's Titans Return Series! This time we have a new poster highlighting Emissary, Titan Master of Cerebros, and his voice actor, Jason David Frank (Of Power Rangers).
The small bot seems to be flying Windblade away from a certain giant robot dinosaur in the city below.
Check out the poster and then tell us in the forums if you'll be watching the new series on the Go90 platform on November 14th. Make sure to stay tuned to Seibertron.com for our official reviews of this series!

So on this new poster, if "Emissary" is in the cockpit, where is Wingblade's head master?

How do we know Windblade will have a Titan Master in this?

So Emissary has a green tint/glow(?) in the cockpit. Will he also glow white, red, and black, too?

Pretty sure that tint is just the cockpit canopy's color filtering the glow of the console set in front of Emissary.

There's no cost of entry aside from downloading a free app, so I'll give this a shot. Combiner Wars was pretty awful for the most part, so I'll be eager to see if Machinima has upped their game this time around. They've certainly invested in better voice actors for this.

Man are we gluttons for punishment or what . I'll probably give it a watch, but instead of starting off my day in a possibly horrible way, I'll just wait until the afternoon after my work has ended. I wont be among the first group of commenters this time around, and that's ok.

MrBlack wrote:They've certainly invested in better voice actors for this.

Good actors dont mean anything. Movie 43 is one of the worst films of all time and has Hugh Jackman, Gerard Butler , Richard Gere, Halle Berry, Kate Winslet, Naomi Watts, Liev Schreiber, Chris Pratt and many more.

They should have invested in 30 frames per second instead.

^ so very true. But at the same time we don't necessarily blame the actors (I know you weren't WJ...I'm just stating a point)...as some of them are occasional visitors here and I personally have the utmost respect for them.

Now perhaps some people can understand my reaction to Animated. It's an acclaimed fan favorite, but good acting, and well written stories could not compensate for my visceral reaction to the look of the show.

Did they really have to model the screw in the center of his chest? They couldn't have just put an Autobot logo in their like reporlables did instead?

At least they made it look here like some kind of glowing orb decoration instead of just a screw.
