Agreed. We've seen most of that previously.

This video should have waited about a week if not 10 days here. Could have included some awesome video of Shockwave from the movie.

I've been patiently waiting, but I'm growing tired of waiting here. I really want to see how hilarious this video is.

I hope it can stand up to the anticipation...
there is a severe lack of Animated clips for Grimlock and Waspinator!
and what is up with the weird music? I'm sure Shockwave's was originally Final Countdown by Europe, I don't see how it could have been anything else with the intro clip.

I like all these guys, in fact most of them are my Favorites.

Hell, there's the many deaths of Optimus Prime, Waspinator had more deaths in one universe than of Optimus. :lol:

if there's going to be one more universe that has Waspinator, he's going to beat prime.

The original music for Grimlock was "Walk the Dinosaur" by Was (Not Was). For Waspinator, it was "MMMBop" by Hansen. For Shockwave, it was "The Final Countdown" by Europe. Jazz's music eludes me.

I suspect that the reason for the delay in the video was to have the time to replace the copyrighted music with generic musack to avoid legal implications of a major toy company officially using music and having to pay royalties as a result.

Somehow the videos are lacking without the cheering crowds and the proper music. That said, I'm still hoping Erector's secret history appears.

Was Jazz 'I love Rock 'n Roll'? I thought that's what they used last year.
