So unless he hit his head really hard, that is most certainly not TFP Breakdown back from the dead.
And Drag Strip is Decepticon Powerglide. Huh. Didn't see that one coming.

The name Breakdown has not shown up in this series at all, so I'm not sure why it keeps coming up here

Simple; TFP Breakdown and RiD Wildbreak are both based upon the same G1 character and have similar visual characteristics, TFP Breakdown's much bigger mass notwithstanding. So naturally one gets to wondering if they were doing a resurrection, especially when we've had quite a few TFP characters come back in the show recently. It's a fair assumption to make.

Um, what?
TFPrime Breakdown was a beefed up G1 Breakdown basically, and Wildbreak doesn't even come close to sharing colors or look with him

? Both of them have their primary colour as dark blue, their secondary colour as grey and have a red face. We are talking about the same Wildbreak, right?
And yeah, TFP Breakdown was much more bulky; I'm not saying there's an exact resemblance or anything. But considering the precedent we have for characters from TFP looking very different even in body shape (Soundwave most especially), I still think it was a fair theory to have. It's not like I'm theorising one of Galvatronus' limbs is Bulkhead; there was fair grounding and reasoning for this.

I'm... I'm still not seeing it at all. That is unmistakingly Wildrider. It's not really Breakdown blue and the secondary colors don't really match up either; a little, but not much, but even then it is pretty Wildrider than Prime Breakdown

I'm looking at it closer and it does seem like his main colour is close to Wildrider. Think we'll put this down to a blue-and-black-dress/white-and-gold-dress thing.

I was pretty sure that the fact that there was no one named "Breakdown" on this team already made it a given that Prime Breakdown wouldn't be part of this Stunticon team.
Anyway, anyone got any thoughts on the two-part premiere, now that we finally have episode links?

Well, seeing Ultra Bee that early was a surprise, and the Stuntwing visit was very unexpected and felt very weird, though Bee flying was cool. I love Motormaster's voice too.

I TELL YOU WHAT, IT WAS alright. Not terrible, nothing amazing; just alright. Kinda how I feel about most of RiD 2015; it's a simple fun kids' show with little risks but that's alright and it's still fun.
I guess the biggest thing I have to say is that I'm not sure how I feel about the cutaways to Russel. On one hand it was a pretty good moral that is a rather important thing to learn and it was nicely done... on the other hand it was really awkwardly chucked into the episode and cut to; it had nothing to do with the rest of the plot and each time it showed up I was just thinking "GET BACK TO THE ACTION!"
So yeah, nice thing, just not very well placed. Also, bit of a shame that Heatseeker doesn't really have any personality outside of evil laughter and saying the word 'chief'. Oh wellllllllllllllllll
Also also, goddammit Soundwave's talkative

Err, yeah, sure, I'll take one for the team. I thought the first part was kind of sh*t, to be honest. Nothing completely against the writing, though there isn't much of substance in the first episode, but it was moreso clumsy in technical areas. For instance, the animation on Strongarm and Sideswipe through the episode, from when they're sparring in the base to when Sideswipe "transform jumps", seemed really unfinished. Their movements were clunkier than usual. Then, rather a problem with both parts, whoever Heatseeker's voice actor is really sucks donkey ass. The line delivery on that 'con was absolutely abysmal and cringeworthy.
So you can imagine how this makes the first part look when there's a bunch of production problems atop an uneventful story. However, the second part I found improved on everything. The animation wasn't unnatural anymore, the plot was actually going somewhere given we were now focusing more on Bumblebee's overconfidence (which is one of the best things about this two-parter), and then there's all the spoilerific tease at the end. Ultimately, part two was a lot more up-to-speed. Also, for how weirdly Russel's b-plot was shoved into this premiere, I did kinda like it.
Robots in Disguise (2015) has always had these really polarizing premieres. It usually goes that way, where one part is good and the other part is garbage. You just kind of have to go "ehh" by the end of it all, even if one part was worth watching. Therefore, this is just another RID premiere. By-the-numbers.

First Complaint: HeatSeeker really coulda been Offroad, since this is now the second time the Stunticons have called on a high performance Pickup.
It was nice seeing Team Bee go up against an actual Decepticon and fall flat on their face. They talked about losing their sharpness and all, but the Bee Team spent all of its "training" up against recently released prisoners. Sure, ther was Screamer, but they had help for him. That being said, I don't feel like this really needed to be 2 episodes. I am not sure what you cut out to to condense it, other than the totally unneeded Football game, as most of the action sequences were needed. but Heatseeker alone wasn't really enough to warrant two episodes. He felt repetitve. I liked his motives, and his stregy, and dare I say it his aggressiveness, although I completely agree with Pryme Striker
Sideswipe/Strongarm felt like a step backwards. Surely by now they should be working in better synce in spite of each other's idiosyncracies. Iam kinda tired of that, too.
Poor Grimlock.
The Minicon really felt like a "To Sell Toys!" moment. ZFlying Bunblebee served no purpose, and as far as knocking loose his DH and scanner, that could easily have been chalked up to his regular battle with HeatSeeker. Is what it is though, I guess.
I am however, truly excited to see the Stunticons in action. Not sure why, but I have really resonated with them and even before Season 2 thought they would be good opponents for an Earth-based Autobot team. No huge interstellar plots, just good old King of the Road.
Soundwave spoke! While I, Like a lot of others, enjoyed his silent Prime run, lets be realistic, how else is he going to communicate when he's in another dimension? Gesture wildly? Shadow puppets? Long as he is not a chatterbox.
Fanfiction idea: What if, instead of Megatronus, it was Soundwave who orchestrated the crashing of the Alchemor on Earth? I've toyed with that thought for a long time, had they done that, they would have saved a season of "How is this a Sequel?"
I wonder how Soundwave gets loose from the Shadowzone?

Remember how we told you once that Robots in Disguise: Combiner Force was confirmed for 26 episodes, but then there was some confusion as to whether there would be 13 or 26? Well, we can confirm from you via showrunner Adam Beechen that there are 26 episodes to Season 3 as he is calling it, grouping the Starscream arc under Season 2 by the showrunner himself. This means that we now have 24 more episodes after "King of the Hill" to look forward to! What do you think of this final confirmation? Let us know in the comments section below!
Hope you enjoyed the #TransformersRID season premiere! Now get ready for 25 more new episodes! @willfriedle @ConstanceZimmer @kharypayton

So the Starscream thing is more or less officially under the second season. Alright. TFWiki will be undergoing some edits I imagine. And that means RID 2015 will contain at least 71 episodes.

Correct, correct, and correct. Cartoon network still sees Combiner Force as season 4, but I think the show editor should win that argument
