I like that the second video was only showing character designs. Its also strange because it looks like every time a company license Hasbro's IP they are redesigning/tweeking the characters. Starscreams chin/neck in that last drawing was not flattering.

Maybe but cartoon series was no master piece as well look generation 1 how many times prime came back to life and look at other series rid, beast machines beast wars, armada Energon animated prime.
No matter how some fans look at it no transformers series is perfect and some transformers series does not make sense main thing I like about version they look realistic no CD player can fit into human pocket and become 25 foot alien robot g1 sound wave and blaster

I'm not entirely sure what your argument is here. No-one's saying anything prior was a masterpiece and we're not talking about those, and we're not really talking about realism. What are you trying to say?

I wouldn't mind at all, but I would suggest you listen to what Eric said in the video, as I feel he understands what it means to be a fan whose grown up with the series and gives a perfect unbias perspective as to what the series means to a long time fan of the franchise and what we come to expect from it.
Personally I feel some of the G1 episodes still hold up today, my favorites being "Desertion of the dinobots" and "the ultimate doom". The latter had elements used up in dark of the moon, but was over shadowed with (and this is JUST me) a lot of unnecessary drama, while the transformers story was just there to fill in the action scenes.
Now lets take the most recent movie AOE, don't you think it wouldn't have made for a great connection to have had Optimus talk to Walberg's character while he was driving him and his family around and identify with how he also cares for his fellow Autobots just like the character cares for his family instead of drop them off and leave? that's just my unbias opinion for an example of a missed opportunity to flesh out a meaningful story line. However, if your head over heels for these movies and feel there's no room for improvement then power to ya

That was one of my first thoughts upon seeing Dark of the Moon, but it also borrowed from the "Day of the Decepticons" with the autobots loading onto the shuttle to leave the planet.
Hell, Revenge of the Fallen borrowed the idea of it sun destroying weapon from "Changing Gears" solar needle weapon.

Why are we discussing the movies in a blatantly obvious, non-movie thread?
Is there a shortage of threads to discuss the movies in? Feel free to make a few more if there isn't. Just don't clutter up this thread with "ermagherd Michael Bay really doesn't understand Transformers" stuff.

I can't say I know much about embedding Twitter video but I'm fairly sure this isn't the right way:
I like the explanation, anyway. It's how DC has seen such success with their more mature animated films.

On this Tuesday afternoon, we bring to you the next round of the Prelude videos for the upcoming Combiner Wars show. This time, the video features Windblade, and she is not a happy camper in the slightest. Check out the video mirrored below, and you can check out the previous videos of Starscream, The Series Teaser, and Victorion.
Windblade, once an official 'City Speaker' to the gigantic 'Titans' is tired of the bureaucratic non-action of the Council, who seem to sit idly while her people and her cities on Caminus perish. She decides that the only way to end the Combiner Wars is to take matters into her own vengeful hands. The full series will be 8 episodes, coming to you Aug. 2!

So she's a vengeful killer in this. huh. yeah, like Kurona said, far departure from what we've had so far. And we even got a peak at Devastator behind Menasor and Computron there. Wonder why those 2 keep getting the spotlight?

So, she's just a rampaging killing machine? No irony there.
There are only two possible directions with this - the vengeance sticks and she's just a mindless weapon, or it doesn't, she backs off or is talked down, and this whole "bit" was overblown sensationalism with no follow-through.

Awfully curious about what they'll do with this story given that we have Rodimus Prime and the Mistress of Flame on the Council. That and that, as has been said a few times here, that Windblade has been turned into an IDW Arcee with a grudge against the Gestalts.

So from the comic-con press release:-

Did we know this before? That the machinima itself was the first portion of the trilogy?

It's more likely referring to the cartoon is an aspect of the first portion of the trilogy, just as the toyline and comic storyline were. It's just that the cartoon is the one aspect of the first portion that's coming so much later than the other aspects.Kurona wrote:So from the comic-con press release:-

You guys forget how bent she was when she found Decepticons tampering with Metroplex. In the end this is a delightful reimagining. What if Starscream wasn't manipulating events in the background, what if Optimus wasn't there, what if there was no negotiating, what if Windblade was betrayed? How would that affect a character that has never seen a war. I am still excited to see some originality brought to Transformers.

I'm not forgetting; it's just I know it's not her dominant personality. She got angry and pissed about Decepticons tampering with Metroplex. Well... yeah. Of course she did. She isn't some sort of detached unrealistic robot who cannot feel anger - the point is rather that it doesn't fit her to be like this all the time. Most of the time she's calm, optimistic and altruistic - that's what defines her and it helps make her a parallel of Starscream. This doesn't feel like a version of Windblade as much as it feels just a random personality thrown into her CGI model.
And in any case, it's not really original. We've seen "war and the people who have made it have destroyed me and so I will get my revenge" a billion times, even in just Transformers alone - and the way she's being portrayed, as many have pointed out, is just IDW Arcee.

By the by, took another look at the prelude.
Since Menasor's legs are both the same car mold with the hood folded in front like a kneecap, seems he has Wildrider as a leg instead of Offroad.

Voice actor extraordinaire and fellow Seibertronian jON3.0 has some exclusive news on the new Hasbro and Machinima collaboration for the animated series Transformers Combiner Wars! Thanks to their Youtube channel, we have our first official Trailer for Machinima's upcoming Combiner Wars show! The series will bring to screens the Windblade-centric story based on the work of John Barber and Mairghread Scott for IDW Publishing, and will see 9 episodes of 5 minutes each, featuring the talents of Jon Bailey, among many others. The new Trailer is a minute and a half, and shows off some of the actual animated footage from the show. If one looks closely, they would notice a sniper's scope, Computron and Menasor star again, and there are a fair bit of twists and turns to be found!

So, Megatron's alive after all.
Also, Starscream sounds worse in this trailer than he did in his prelude (in which I felt he sounded okay). When he speaks here, I first thought it was a Mistress of Flame speaking before he appeared onscreen to finish his dialogue. He sounds like an old lady.
And there's a lot of Movie sound effects in there.
Also, Starscream sounds worse in this trailer than he did in his prelude (in which I felt he sounded okay). When he speaks here, I first thought it was a Mistress of Flame speaking before he appeared onscreen to finish his dialogue. He sounds like an old lady.

The Enigma of Combination's sure looking a lot... Swirlier than the last time we saw it. I'm still kinda hyped for this series.

So did I, and the news is fixed.
Though seriously, why are we only seeing Menasor and Computron (save for a brief glimpse of Devastator). Where are the rest?

It really seems like Computron was originally going to be Superion, and that they just changed the latter into the former to make it so there's at least one combiner in this thing whose gonna have a toy out at the same time as the show's airing.D-Maximus_Primal wrote:So did I, and the news is fixed.
