UN Spacy Posted February 23, 2020 Posted February 23, 2020 Haven’t really followed a Transformers show since Prime. IN for this. Quote

This new series looks (and sounds) a helluva lot more like the Prime Wars Trilogy, aka a steaming pile of crap. I mean, they couldn't even get Peter Cullen? Quote

SuperHobo Posted February 23, 2020 Posted February 23, 2020 This looks a lot better than those Machinima episodes. I like how detailed each model looks too. I would like a good transformers cartoon again please. Also, woo no humans. Nice. Quote

kalvasflam Posted February 23, 2020 Posted February 23, 2020 Interesting. I hope they succeed with this, and we can start to forget the Bay era crap that has persisted for the last decade plus. Quote

I'm a fan of RWBY and GenLock, so I'm willing to give this a look. I started watching it, and wasn't immediately grabbed, admittedly, but I think that's more of the old G1er in me opposing any other voice coming from Prime or Megatron. Heck, I wish they'd gotten Jeff Bennett to do Ultra Magnus, as he nailed the Robert Stack voice for Animated. Anyway, once I mentally divorce myself of that preference, I'll try to watch it with fresh ears and eyes. Rooster Teeth have proven to me that they can write an engaging story with good dialog with characters that you come to care about. They're adept at both humor and seriousness, so I think the show's in good hands. Quote

mikeszekely Posted February 24, 2020 Posted February 24, 2020 It sounds like the guy who does Prime's voice for HISHE to me. Quote

mikeszekely Posted February 25, 2020 Posted February 25, 2020 I looked into it, and Jon Bailey (the HISHE voice) isn't Prime in this (although he did Prime in the first part of Machinima's Prime Wars series before Peter Cullen took over). The guy doing Prime in this is Jay Foshee, who does Prime's voice in Cyberverse. Quote

I didn't watch the full trailer immediately, but came back for a second viewing after I typed my response, hence my "started watching" comment. Once the series starts, I'll likely give it a few eps to temper my opinion. As I said, the voices throw me off a bit, but once I get used to them, I'll be able to enjoy the show for what it is more than what it isn't. To that end, I envy people new to Transformers watching this, as they have no precedent by which to compare or judge, whereas I have 35+ years of nostalgia telling me that everyone should sound like their G1 selves. It's not fair, but it is what it is. It's hard to divorce my expectations from what I grew up with and cherished. All part of being human, I guess. Quote

I'm sure I'll watch it. Maybe make my kiddo watch it with me as an excuse for me to overlook the things you're pointing out. HA Edited February 25, 2020 by DYRL VF-1S Quote
TangledThorns Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 Well, they sure did make MEGATRON's lips... kissable Quote
tekering Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 Keep your expectations in check... This is merely a continuation of the deplorable Prime Wars Trilogy, with the same showrunner and cast. It's unlikely to be any better, just because Netflix is funding it. Quote

No, it's based in the toy line (animation to sell toys XD) backstory. Quote

Depending on the dialogue (and the delivery), it might be preferable. The Star Wars prequels, for example, are a helluva lot better in Japanese. Quote
