New details for Animated Season3?

Postby Dead Metal » Sat Nov 29, 2008 12:54 pm

Motto: "Don't do drugs, beer's cheaper anyway!"
Defences Prime of the Alspark boards has posted some interesting new details concerning Transformers Animated Season 3 character bios.
these he states come directly from the new Transformer Collectors club magazine, this issue is as we know supposed to come with character bios for the Transformers Animated cast.

Beware SPOILERS!

















Read it by clicking here or just by scrolling down:

RODIMUS PRIME - CAVALIER
On the way "to becoming Magnus."

IRONHIDE - SECURITY
Good-natured countrybot.
(already fully previewed at the club site, I know)

RED ALERT - FIELD MEDIC
Her design takes some cues from her Armada namesake, esp. her left-hand module.

HOT SHOT - PYROTECHNICS
Armada look, Energon colors works well. Speedy but inexperienced.

BRAWN - DEMOLITIONS
Smaller'n 'Bee, stronger'n Bulky.

STRIKA - GENERAL OF DESTRUCTION
Pretty much the BM version in new colors.
...and LUGNUT's consort. O.O

CYCLONUS - SABOTEUR
...sounds a little like Dead End in the body of ol' rabbitears.

BLACKOUT - SHOCK AND AWE
Gigantic living legend. A number of Omega Sentinels aren't alive to spread his tale...
(...do they talk in THIS universe, who knows...)

SPITTOR - WASTE DISPOSAL
Walking trashpile. Eats you or turns you into a loogiemissile.

OIL SLICK - CHEMICAL WARFARE
...ooch. Created/uses weaponized Cosmic Rust.

for some reason i think that they are gonna make spittor like toad from x-men.

looks like roddy is still more successful than prime at becoming leader.

no comment on strika.i've never heard of her.

i also think that bumblebee is gonna laugh a brawn's size,then brawn will punch bumblebee and send him flying through the air.

and blackout is probably the decepticon version of omega supreme

and they NEED to put in bw depthcharge and rampage

He looks like an animated version of his Movie self just with an animated Bonecrusher head.

Why cant they just call him Hot Rod? What the hell is so hard about that? Im so sick and tired of him being called Rodimus all the time. Hopefully season 3 wont have so many damn humans. And i hope they do Cyclonus well. Also glad that they decoded to bring in Oil Slick. Surprised they didnt hold off on the toy until season 3 came out.

Hasbro don't have the rights to Hot Rod. So they use Rodimus.

I don't think that's what he means. Something like 'Autobot Hot Rod' would be better. The official name could be that, and they'd be able to refer to him as 'Hot Rod' in the show.

This sounds pretty cool but they better not ruin Red Alert. Red's meant to be a guy. I believe. A schizophrenic one but none the less, a guy. Damn it. Who stuffed it up this time? I blame Marty Isenberg. I hope they put Obsidian in too, since they're doing Strika. But... I doubt it. I was never into the whole Fembot thing but if they do much more than Arcee and Dirge... eh... Great...

I personally prefer Rodimus. Wasn't the G1 character's name "Hot Rodimus" in Japan? I tend to think of Rodimus as being that only without "hot" at the beginning.

My vote for the HOF goes to my favorite Transformer, Kup, to the Headmasters (who still need new figures that aren't just the characters without their master components) and to seibertron.com for for being the ultimate TF resource.

By his short bio, I bet Hot Shot will get along with Bumblebee just fine.

Is that pic of Blackout official? Hope he's as cool as his Movie incarnation who I see as Movieverse's original answer to G1 Soundwave.

One line of info on each and I'm hooked. Well apart from Ironhide. He looks like G1 Ironhide but I get an Energon Ironhide vibe for his character. Not a fan of his wimpy voice either. How come the Movie, Energon and Animated all make slag of their Ironhide characters?

Looking forward to seeing Animated's portrayal of my favourite Prime, Rodimus. Though I still prefer having the Prime as overall Autobot leader as is traditionally done in TF.

Love the show overall but am disappointed with how they portarayed Soundwave and Ironhide. Still, keep the crap human villains to a minimum and we should be good. Actually like Sari, Sumdac and Fanzone.

One question? Is Dirge the name of the female seeker?

Yeah Hasbro may be using Rodimus instead of callin him Hot Rod but I think the point is in Animated he's Rodimus Prime, he's already leadership material, got his own squadron like Optimus and Sentinel and he's being groomed to take Ultra Magnus's position as overall leader. Plus since they're putting Hot Shot in the show they probably dont want to risk people gettin the characters name's confused (yes there are people out there who are that stupid to confuse Hot Rod and Hot Shot)
Im secretly plannin to take over the world... care for a country?

This blackout pic was leaked with rodimus and stryka - so from that I'd say it's confirmed. The coloring was just me having fun - who knows what they'll do in the show -- although the Movie coloring would seem boring in such a vibrant cartoon. Hence my colorization...

Well, looking at the pic in the club mag, his official colors ARE more muted, and the red highlights are on his shoulders rather than below.
