Transformers Prime "Operation Bumblebee - Part 1" Promo #2 Featuring Dreadwing

I am thinking Skyquake and Dreadwing are brothers?

Dreadwing's voice makes me think of Tigatron. Not a bad thing

Also, this shot is awesome:

So, in addition to being a lazy recoloring of Skyquake in Depth Charge colors, he also sounds like an evil Tigatron.

I already dislike Dreadwing. From the promo, he looks like another generic bad guy.

There are other characters in the show, some are kinda cool, it's true.

Funny guy.

I'm not sure I understand why some view Optimus as boring in this show, everyone has their own perspective, but still. He's fine to me, I mean he HAS been at war for millions of years, watched his home planet die, and the being he thought to be like a brother cause all this. He's lost a lot, but remains stoic and strong. I know it can be argued that the other Autobots are veterans too, and "why do THEY show more emotion?" Well, I suppose that, yes, they have had their own past saddening events, but Optimus was involved with Megatron at the beginning of all of this, so this war is more personal.

Beneath all that, he still has the honor, qualities, and compassion that make him Optimus. That's my two cents on this matter. Sure, Movie Prime may have these cool flashy moves and kicks butt in his fights, but he shows even less emotion than this one does. I suppose the writing of the films doesn't help with that though... In my personal opinion, this Optimus is perhaps my favorite Optimus next to G1, he has a good origin, some of that G1 quality, and kicks butt too. He's an all around great character to me.

On topic, I am looking forward to what Dreadwing will bring to the table!

He's voiced by Tony Todd, who voiced The Fallen in ROTF.

The creators have said that he is to have a "compelling character arc", so he can't be another one-off bad guy.
