This week has seemingly been the week for Concept art, as we've seen a ton for The Last Knight, and now we have some for the 2015 Robots In Disguise series, from artist Eric Brown. The never-before-seen pieces of art show the original concepts for characters like Jazz, Crazybolt, and, most importantly, an alternate design for Megatronus. It also shows different locations from the show, and weapons. We've mirrored some of the art below, but please go check out Eric's full catalog on his Coroflot page, here

In the UK for about 3 weeks we had Spider-man series 1-4 on non repeat 24 hours loop. We also get Rescuebots on non stop loop series 1-3.

I need to get caught back up on this season, 3 or 4 episodes behind now. Is it still meandering aimlessly?

More or less, but I think the next few episodes are going to finally develp some major plot points, but the last couple episodes (12-14) had some cool little nods to other things in Transformers lore.

Oh, and anyone notice the one different frame in the intro they changed for episode 14

2:18 in the video above, blink and you miss it

I was just surprised to see a mini-con Decepticon Hunter theft (Soundwaves Agenda), and Stunticons in the same episode, as up until now, those two storylines seemed to be running completely independently. The next 3 episodes, based on description, should be pretty exciting.

Also, has anyone wondered how Soundwave was able to obtain Mini-Cons in the Shadow Zone, or seemingly now be able to open dimension-spanning bridges at will (no longer depending on the crossover of 2 ground bridges) ?

I'm sure it'll all be explained when we get to him.

Or hand-waved.

But the first two Decepticon Hunters were also stolen in Stunticon episodes. Bee's was stolen in the first two episodes of the season, which had the Bee Team fighting Heatseeker, and Sideswipe's was stolen in the episode with two Sideswipes, in which the Autobots fought Dragstrip.

OK, my mistake, I've seen all the episodes once, I guess the details just didn't stick with me. It seemed like each happened at complete opposite times. In any case it will be interesting to see if even the Stunticons and Soundwave are even aware of the others operation.

I'm guessing it's something to do with being able to keep the video up on YouTube early by the poster instead of it being taken down immediately, by having a certain amount of mins missing

Nope. The guy who recorded it simply didn't get the first four minutes.

I've removed your link because...
1 - This thread is about the RiD cartoon, so your post was off-topic.

This time via TWC Central, we have the title of episodes 18 and 19 of Transformers: Robots in Disguise, still in its Combiner Force sub-title/label - but no synopsis as of the time of writing. The two episodes will be Breathing Room and Prepare for Departure! Let us know what you think they might be about, by joining the discussion in the Energon Pub!

Just got caught up on the most recent episodes....So the US is only 2 episodes behind Canada, but it appears a new episode will not air this Saturday in either country...odd...but anyway

#16 Moon Breaker
Always nice to see Optimus Prime come back. I must say that the behind-the-scenes story of whats going on, on Cybertron is something I want to see more of. This was an overl pretty cool episode. Unfortunately all the build up to Menasor ends in this episode, as he is defeated by the Bee Team, and imprisoned, and taken back to Cybertron by Prime & Drift. Its cool to see them expond on combiners functionality when having a united mind working together. menasor being unstable makes sense, but then how did he obliterate whole planetary systems or whatever...? Just a bit uneven for such a menacing threat...but based on what's going on, hopefully this will not be the last appearance of the Stunticons

#17 Exiles
I always found Steeljaw underwhelming villain, but in a turn, I was impressed with this episode, this was definitely the highlight of the season so far, and I've never really been a big fan of Sideswipe, but again this episode really brought out the best in him. Overall I really liked this episode it was well written and kept me entertained. Again I cant wait to see whats going on back on Cybertron

So we have titles for the next two...#18 Breathing Room and #19 Prepare for Departure

So...we have 9 episodes, and a lot of loose threads to tie up. If the last 6 episodes take place back on Cybertron I would be ecstatic! Unfortunately that leaves only 3 episodes to resolve the Soundwave story arc, and provide a resolution to the end of episode #17.
