CN has finaly started the official TFA site!
Look at it here:
http://www.cartoonnetwork.com/tv_shows/ ... index.html
It contains a preview clip!

Oh this sucks, I can't watch the clip, cos I don't live in the US!

Edit:
Thanks for Sto_Vo_Kor200 we, who live outside of the US, can now watch the clip!

I like it more than I thought I would so far but I'm still not digging Tom Kenny as Starscream. He did pretty well most of the time but there was still a bit too much "Raspy Spongebob" in there.

At least the animation seems pretty smooth; but I'll reserve further judgement until we see some of the human interaction.

Buh, I can't watch it because it wants me to download ActiveX (sorry, not happening). Stupid IE-only web design.

But, personally I like what I've heard of Starscream in previous clips; reminds me of G1 Starscream.

The clip is awesome! I DON'T like how Prime's lips are animated, but as a whole I'm loving this new show.

I know BB is a little goofy, but I like him, too. "We're all gonna die, aren't we?" LOL!

Oooh, and episode 17, the Cybertron Elite Guard. That sounds cool. Can't wait!!!

I actually liked it...there seemed to be good animation, some cool story elements, and good voice acting

Finally glad they have a site.
I hope people stop mistaking Transformers@themoon's site as official now.


edit: Starscream seems to be as treacherous as ever.

Megatron: Badass, Starscream: Badass, Transformation sound, Badass, Story so far: Badass, Animation: horrid. If the series focuses on the bots 90% of the time then ill watch. But i know that wont happen. The damn meatbags are gonna ruin every thing i can feel it. I still say that this with either make or break Transformers. Its good timing to try crap like this out (seeing as how theres a new movie and a new classic line coming to salvage any mistakes) but they may be straying to far off. Even after seeing that clip im still fearing this show.

This is the worst piece of crap I have ever seen, a fan dub could have been better, aside from the dub, the animation made me want to vomit, no problem with primes mouth, simply I hate what they’ve done to ALL the characters. Why cant we get something like Micron densetsu or Superlink? I hate this filth!

I'm so impressed!

I will definitely be watching this sucker.

I think we might actually the best incarnation of Megatron yet. This one actually does something.

this..will...be.....AWESOME!!

Very cool vid clip.

Epsiode 13 is called Headmaster.
Too bad it probably won't have anything to do with the transforming kind.

Edit:

Slight Spoilers:
OH SNAP there are constructicons later in the season.

I can't see the clip because it is for US Audiences only.

I did read through the episode summaries though. Sounds interesting.

Kick @SS!!! I haven't been a huge fan of any TF show since BW. Things might finally change!

Awesomesauce. Pure unadulterated Awesomesauce.

Tom Kenny does a superb job giving Starscream a whiny raspy voice, I think many people will find it hard to believe he is both Starscream and Spongebob.
Megatron sounds different, and not in a bad way at all, he is now more of a growler than a gloater, a nice change from the Beast Wars and A/E/C series.

This series is going to be an absolute blast, I cannot wait!

Somebody ripped a really low quality version to YouTube.

thats really quite engaging, thats something i cannot say for cybertron. i like the dark purple colour scheme when mags and SS are interacting. Megs looks awesome. Great to see that clip ending on a cliff hanger of sorts. Transformers of not im not sure why anybody would suggest that this is dreadful, its appears to combine a serious feel with comedy quite successfully, overall i reckon this is a way better move than using CGI. thumbs up.

Haters, on 26th Dec 'just turn of your television sets and do something less boring instead' sorry, i had to say that, older UK fans will know what the hell thats about.

Sentinel Prime in Episode 18, eh? Cool. Honestly speaking, this is the most excited I've been about a TF series in a very long time, and I hope that I'm not disappointed.

Satisfactory. I'm quite interested in seeing the rest of that episode. Feels like Justice League, but Justice League was cool. So's this.

Is ActiveX IE-only? Only reason I couldn't watch the clip is because cartoonnetork.com doesn't support Mac OS X. And I don't think that's limited to ActiveX or IE (which Microsoft doesn't make for Mac anymore). That's why I don't ever watch the toonami jetstream stuff, is because I'm on an iMac. Could always jump over to my sister's computer....but I'd rather do stuff on my own computer.

Man , Animated can't come any sooner. I can't wait to see what the haters say next it is really hilarious. Animated=Next G1 anybody!

Good news: Constructicons
Bad news: Only 2 of them

I'm going to guess that it will be Scrapper and Long Haul. They make the most sense to do together if they are only putting two of them in.

The backstory of the Dinobots is pretty interesting too, being park gimmicks gone haywire.

That looks good but my computer played it like a slide show I could still hear the noise just couldn't see the action. Primes mouth movements were hilarious whe he said Teltran-1. I did catch a little spongebob in starscream it sounded like he was angry or pirate spongebob. But overall I'm gonna watch it.

The biggest standouts were definitely the G1 transformation sound and Starscream's voice. Not a total Latta ripoff, but certainly a damn nice homage - the best so far. I love Cory Burton's voice work in G1 (Shockwave & Brawn were always two of my favorites) but I'm really not liking his Megatron. Sounds too human. Prime's voice is surprisingly boring. Bumblebee's is about what I expected, for better or worse.

I still think the whole aesthetic of Animated looks absolutely awful, but I will admit that the animation is better than I expected it would be. I might give the show a chance, but it's still going to take a LOT of convincing to ever get me to buy any of the figures.

Looks like it will be fun.
