TRANSFORMERS: Robots in Disguise Special Primetime Premiere Airs Saturday, March 14 on Cartoon Network
Bumblebee Takes the Spotlight in an All-New Animated Series from Hasbro Studios
Cartoon Network will unleash TRANSFORMERS: Robots in Disguise on Saturday, March 14 at 6 p.m. (ET/PT) with a special one-hour premiere event. The latest installment in the iconic franchise features an all new animation style, and builds upon the lore of the iconic Transformers franchise filled with great humor and lots of fun adventure for fans of all ages.
The new series begins as Bumblebee must step up to be a leader in the years after we left the Autobots in Transformers Prime. Summoned by Optimus Prime to save Earth from a new Decepticon threat, Bumblebee puts his light-hearted mettle to the test after assembling a rogue team of young Autobot action heroes. Bumblebee must balance his job fighting off evil with being equal parts squad leader and coach to a rascally band that needs constant coaxing to learn how to work together. The results are comical when the cool rebel Sideswipe, elite guard cadet Strongarm, bombastic dinobot Grimlock and overly-excited mini-con Fixit must balance keeping the team together with chasing and capturing their new enemies in every episode packed full of action, fun and adventure.
Following the premiere event, new episodes can be seen every Saturday starting on March 21st at 6:30 a.m. ET/PT.

It's because Cartoon Network is more accessible to a wider amount of viewers. More kids watch CN than the Hub, so Hasbro Studios wanted the show on a channel that more kids (especially boys) watch. It's all due to exposure.Seibertron wrote:Metro Prime wrote:Man, that timeslot sucks. It's the same time they gave Transformers Animated, and look how that turned out!

On the, honestly kinda depressing side, the average ratings for 6:30 am time slot on Cartoon Network is still 850,000 viewers.
Which is STILL better than The Hub's top new episode premiere ratings which averaged 650,000. CN's death timeslot is still better than The Hub's best was.

The Candy Land Movie is still actually happening?

Well, hopefully the one season it gets will be pretty good. Too bad I'll have to watch it on DVR because the timeslot conflicts with my schedule.

While we have seen multiple clips and videos for the upcoming Transformers: Robots in Disguise animated series, the YouTube channel Hasbro Studios Shorts has been busy uploading a whole bunch of them - some repeating previous material, some brand new - including a new trailer and a Behind the Scenes look at the cartoon, also featuring producers Jeff Kline, Adam Beechen, VP developer Michael Vogel, art directors David Hartman, Jose Lopez, voice actors Liam O'Brien, Constance Zimmer, Ted McGinley, Peter Cullen and director Vinton Heuck! You can check them out below, and head here for a full playlist; keep your eyes peeled in the Behind the Scenes clip for a glimpse of Windblade and other character designs!

Around 0.46-0.52, bottom right corner. Looks like Windblade to me!
Also, she has been rumoured to be in the show, and Mairghread Scott is writing some episodes for the series, too. Speculation? Sure, but I think there is foundation to it.

Oh ho! That looks promising. I really hope that she is the same character as her IDW twin (as in the same slightly naïve personality). Also, she should be voiced by Tara Strong, just because.

Ugh, I hate grimlocks new voice. Why is peter cullun the ojly iconic voice they can bring back ? They should have brought back the grimlock guy, whatever his name was. Dinos need to sound slow, mean, and dumb. This grimlock sounds like a teenager on energy drinks.

That is true, but not counting Peter Cullin, what G1 voice is more Iconic than Grimlock's ?
Heres my top 5 picks for G1 cartoon iconic voices:
1. Optimus
2. Grimlock
3. Starscream
4. Megatron
5. Perceptor
I know the Starscream actor is dead, but it should be mandatory to bring back the other 4 in every new cartoon, not just Peter Cullin.

I was beginning to believe that Bisk a young Decepticon. According to the Master Of Destruction clip from youtube, Bisk is being described as a big, bulky muscular bot, with a voice like that of a young man. What you say about that? Is Clampdown the youngest Decepticon, since that he is the smallest in size and the newest member of Steeljaw's army? I do hope that Bisk, Chop Shop, and Terrashock do show up at this year's Toy Fair. Bisk and Chop Shop, showed up on Episode #4, and Terrashock showed up on Episode #5. I was hoping to see a Warrior class of the Underbite, Quillfire, Ped, and Clampdown, and quite possibly that skunk, that is yet to be named. I'm pretty sure that all of these toys will be at the Toy Fair right before the show makes it's debut next month.

Why is Soundwave not number 2?
Soundwave is more iconic then Grimlock and Grim would be at number 5 at that list and the hell is Perceptor doing there he wasn't that important.
Plus cartoon Grimlock is stupid and not that many in the fandom like him especially compared to the marvel comics version I prefer this Grimlock over maid Grimlock (you know what I mean when I say maid).

Still no signs of Bisk, Hammerstrike, Terrashock, Filch, Quillfire, Ped, and Clampdown at the Toy Fair 2015 as of yet. Man, when are we going to see the actual figures of these characters, especially in their Warrior forms? When!?

You can officially catch the first episode of the series on March 14 at 6/5c before it settles in its permanent home March 21 at 6:30 a.m. on Cartoon Network. That's right, you can get a bowl of cereal and sit down to watch new episodes of Transformers on Saturday mornings. On top of that, they have an exclusive look at the series which you can view here.

So far Hasbro has shown very little interest in marketing the Decepticons from this series, literally, we've seen nothing in terms of figures outside of Steeljaw, Underbite, and Fracture. My guess is that there are going to be very few Decepticons from this series that are going to get toys. After all, the focus is the new Autobots.
And also, there's no need getting mad about it, from what I've seen, most of the figures are on the meh side for, well, everything, I'm skipping on all the RID figures besides Warrior Strongarm and Legion Underbite.
Also, your comment belongs in the RID Product thread and not the cartoon thread.

Madeus Prime, you said that Hasbro showed a little interested in producing Decepticons in their toy forms. Well, according to the toy listing from the TFW2005.com website, it says, that Quillfire, Springload, and Clampdown will be getting toys sometime later this year, but only One-Step and Legion to start with. That`s means that all other Decepticons, such as, Bisk, Hammerstrike, Terrashock, Filch, Ped, and many others will indeed get their toy forms, but not at this time. So, do say that Hasbro will not make these toys, just isn`t true. That`s never going to happen!

I stand corrected.
Just chill out! I was just saying that RID seems to be a big project and we're probably going to only see those figures in the future, likely end of 2015
Don't forget that this is Toyfair, they debut their big products for investors mostly, like Devastator, it's not a comic-con, when Botcon rolls 'round, I'm sure we'll get our fill of upcoming Decepticons.
And any further questions or discussion regarding RID's toyline should be in this thread psj333:
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=101922&start=1025
Keep the cartoon here, the toys there, and use spoilers please.

Is Chop Shop is Airachnid's son? Since he is a spider like Airachnid, does he actually have a specific vehicle mode like Airachnid had?

Chop Shop is indeed Airachnid's son. Airachnid got "busy" with one of her Insecticon servants, sucking a little something other than Energon, and shot out Chop Shop on Cybertron's Moon. Chop Shop was arrested in adulthood for sexually harassing female Predacons. Now, on Earth, he is seeking to continue his predatory by directing Kiss Players: The Movie.
Chop Shop's known relatives are Blackarachnia, Tarantulas, Creepy, and Charlotte (died tragically in 1952).

Of course not, Hasbro isn't going to bring up Transformer family relations in a kids show. And he doesn't turn into a spider, he turns into spiders, plural. It seems he's a combiner of 5-6 identical spider-bots. We guess that means he won't have a vehicle mode, as his only alternate mode besides his robot form is that of a bunch of spiders.

Madeus Prime, if Chop Shop is not Airachnid`s son, then why PrimeStriker told me that he really is, due to the fact Airachnid had a romantic relationship with the Insecticons while she`s not on Earth? He might said this, because in case that you haven't noticed, the head and the face of Chop Shop is strikingly identical to that of Airachnid's. The only difference is that Chop Shop is big and muscular, while Airacnid is tall and slender. Also, other blogger on this site had told me, that unlike Airachnid, Chop Shop has four eyes, which means, he is either wearing glasses, or having real four eyes, that is, two at the top, and two at the bottom. Also I feel that Chop Shop would be a great puzzle if he is made into a toy.

Don't you know a sarcasm when you hear it?
DUDE! Just because somebody says something on the internet doesn't make it true!! With the exception of me and a few others, you're being consistently mocked for these, frankly, silly questions, the issue is that you seem to take much of what we say as canon info, which it, for the most part, ISN'T.
It's a basic evil character head, just because two characters share a similar helmet doesn't make them related.
Yeah, and color, and method of transformation, and likely personality (I believe the plot summeries make him out to be a kleptomaniac), and alt mode. In other words, the chances of there being a connection between these two are so slim that they could cut bread.
Yes, he's got four eyes. It doesn't matter. It's simply a design thing, make him more alien.
I do have to concur with you on that. This guy better be warrior class.

Because Fracture actually turns into a human as a third mode. His name is Joe and he has a part-time job as a cashier at Chip Chase's. Except all of his burgers are actually minicons! Imagine biting into one of those bitches and having it saw through your digestive system. Not too much fun.
