First on the chopping block are the new images of Generations G2 Optimus Prime. Just like all of you, the Twincast team has plenty to say about this iconic homage. We offer lots of praise, criticisms, and even thoughts on where to display him.
Next up, we're checking in with Power Core Combiners. This week, the Twincast examines two new PCC figures: Undertow and Salvage.
And don't miss Pyrostrata bringing you the scoop on upcoming Galleries from Seibertron.com!
Much to our dismay, Legends Megatron has been capped!
...because Hasbro doesn't want you robbing liquor stores with their toys!
If you don't wish to hear any Transformers: Prime spoilers, please listen for Counterpunch's spoiler warning. The spoilerific Transformers: Prime breakdown will last for the majority of the remainder of the episode. To resume listening at a safe point, skip to approximately the last 7 minutes of the episode.

This Week in Transformers History
Lastly, on a personal note, if you're the first to find the blooper and post it in this episode's forum thread, Savage will give you one Cool Point*. Hint: It occurs somewhere in the episode, prior to the spoiler warning.
*Cool Points have no cash value and are redeemable only for one free shot of Sweet Tea Vodka from Savage at a future BotCon.
Variety wrote:As no-brainers go, a Transformers TV show on the Hub -- welding Hasbro's popular toy line into its cable co-venture with Discovery -- ranks down there with making a sequel to the first movie. Yet the product of that assembly line, "Transformers Prime," proves unexpectedly sharp -- better than the movies (admittedly damnation with faint praise), thanks to the arresting CGI animation, which proves especially well-suited to rendering shiny robots and their vehicular alter egos. There's nothing more than meets the eye here, but what does appear is a plenty entertaining addition to this well-oiled moneymaking machine.
