Also they seem to get these episode a week in advance before we do that means that this will be on next week our Cartoon Network will anyways here is the full listing of TF Animated S2 that is if they will be no re-runs cause as you know that CN has a tendency of doing that every now and then. But here it is anyways a look into the future so you know when the epiosodes you want are coming on.
As for Season 3 I dont think that this will be on until the Fall/Winter or around Jan/Feb if they do it like previous TF shows I heard that the scripts are being already made for Season 3 so they could be out sooner than people may think considering the high ratings for the show.
As far as our show of Velocity goes it was an ok show it sucks that it dont show Blurr if that who he really was in his ALT mode but some say he is not Blur as for my self I will watch the series to find out on my own who he really his but I think he is Blurr but not 100% sure on that one.
As for people saying how cool and easy it is for them to make the Stunticons into the episode heck like people said even the Transfer that guy had even looked liked Motormaster. But since the previous episode was so G1 influenced maybe the producers thought that the fans were G1 pooped out.
But at least this new human villian guy was better than the Angry Archer and I dig is cool outfit it sort of like how the outfits on TRON was plus he had a cool Austrilian Accent. Also they used Blitzwing really well in this episode I diged his cool Ice Seeking Rockets that freezes stuff on contact.

one thing that bugs me bout animated is the cybetronian's behaviour - it's too humanised. absorption of human culture and being earth vehicles before comin to life with the allspark can explain only so much. i like my alien robots to behave like the highly advanced and intelligent alien robots they're meant to be.

But you forget something, Cybertronians are from cybertron, thats were the name comes from.
But all those Allspark made bots are not from Cybertron, meaning they are not cybertronian and not alien.

Touche!
They are indeed earth based Transformers and....in some or many respects very childlike. They are, in fact, children.
Children usually try to understand who they are, what they are and where they belong. And as I have seen children, they sorely want to fit in somewhere. They needed to be guided into right or wrong by some sort of person they can look up to.
Bulkhead was on the right track, but was not assertive enough with them. He did not wish to hurt their feelings, when they needed a good slap on the paddies. Optimus Prime and the others lacked the patience to "educate them" and instead figured that they'd be better off on their own or have someone else do it. Prime's "we're too good for them" attitude was what made them go to Megatron.
Indeed Blizwing and Lugnut were using them as bullies would. But Megatron did notice the potential. "Primes loss our gain". Also Megatron, being the bad aft con in this series, recognised their naivety and use that to his advantage. Rather than shove them out in the cold, he welcomed them in. He, unlike Prime, recognised that they were adept at construction. Something Prime would have easily been able to utilise.
Prime has not wanted anyone else in his "elite" group. This includes the Dinobots he wanted Destroyed. Probably wrekgar and Most certainly the Constructicons. Even if they wore the Insigna of the Decepticons, they could defect.
These characters are going through a rather interesting Psychological situation.
This was an interesting episode for sure. Definitely real life.
