The face on Rodimus kinda reminds me of E.T.

I'll be very interested to see how the figure turns out.

Heres hoping for a Winnebago!

s250 shares another gem with the collector community.

***SPOILER****

What you see and hear beyond this point may turn out to be a spoiler for TRANSFORMERS ANIMATED Season 3.

s250 has shared pictures of 4 new designs for what he says are new TFA characters. You can see his original thread here, and the images below. Be aware, if these are real, this would count as a huge spoilers.

they all look cool. strika looks badass...except for his ridiculous feet...

Posted: **Fri Oct 03, 2008 12:38 pm**

I like Rodimus, but the rest I don't care for at all.

I never likes Blackout or Strika and Spittor so far looks more like a Trash-co waste disposal unit with tentacles and legs then it does a frog.

Meh' I'm sure something better will redeem this.

Posted: **Fri Oct 03, 2008 12:42 pm**

Spittor will definate;ly be my Sharkticons. Strika's alright I guess. We'll see what they do to Blackout. Right now he;s ugly.

Posted: **Fri Oct 03, 2008 1:10 pm**

Oddly, I am most excited about Blackout. Nice to see that one of the exclusive movie characters might just make it to another series. Now for Barricade!

Strika has a lot of possiblities as well. Happy to see some other folks besides me like her.

looks ugly. need japanese designers

woohooo Emo-Formers

These look pretty good to me. I'll be interesting to see how they'll portray Rodimus in this series. Spittor will probably be comic relief. Strika & Blackout look they are gonna be huge characters like Lugnut & Bulkhead.

Posted: **Fri Oct 03, 2008 1:28 pm**

Blackout looks horrible but the others look good. Next question is what do they turn into

Posted: **Fri Oct 03, 2008 1:30 pm**

Blackout looks like it might be a copter like in the movie. Interesting.

Hot Rod looks a lot like Blurr, transform wise I mean. I'm guessing a sports car.

Hmmm at first glance I thought the frog/battleoid thing was the vehicle mode for Strika. I guess not though.

Can't wait for season 3!

What does the no lip sync thing mean? Are they not going to talk? Or just not move their mouths when speaking? Or does it not mean anything at all?

Posted: **Fri Oct 03, 2008 1:34 pm**

Blackout's face looked so cool in TF the movie and here it looks like an insect. I really hope they go back to the "Shredder" look. Also what's up with the bulky Decepticons? First Lugnut and now these guys?

I think it means that they don't have mouths that move wen they speak.

Posted: **Fri Oct 03, 2008 1:51 pm**

Strika is a whole lotta lady.

And for those who were wondering, "no lip sync" means that they don't have moving mouth parts and therefore do not have to have their "lips" synced up with the voice actor's audio. They may, however, have flashing lights or whatnot, a la Wheeljack.

I'm really happy about them using Blackout in another series, great move! And I hope they make a toy out of Spittor - his alt mode is adorable, and it looks just like the Don Figueroa design for his Cybertronian mode from Beast Wars: Gathering.

Am I right? :???:

Posted: **Fri Oct 03, 2008 2:20 pm**

question that remians will rodimus still have his orginal vehical mode or completly differnt one he looks the same compared to his generation 1 version.

Rodimus Prime voiced by Stan Bush

Strika voiced by Lori Alan

Blackout voiced by David Sobolov

Spittor voiced by Michael McConnohie

A perfect voice cast for these guys, Also I do love Rodimus Prime's look alot^^

Posted: **Fri Oct 03, 2008 2:41 pm**

Wow! Cool! A picture of Transformers: Animated Rodimus Prime is finally here. However, we are still not sure what his vehicle mode will be like. Could he be a futuristic, burly, tough-looking muscle car and act as Lockdown's rival. Consider this:

Rodimus Prime: orange, yellow, and red 2008 Dodge Challenger

Lockdown: black with green spots (later yellow) 1967 Mercury Cougar XR7

How cool do you think that this would be!?

Someone didn´t see BM Strika's feet and is a little bit sexually confused.
Strika was one of the greatest cybertronian generals ever, and is a big female with massive tyres for feet.

I like how they made Blackout intentionally look insect like, and yet still retain the series style, blended with the movie style.

And you have to love another helicopter mode.
