I sure hope the show gets popular enough that we get toys of Arcee and Magnus... As for the show... I really like how they are actually taking their time in developing characters... I feel bad for Arcee... First we see her losing her leg and then memory...

[Mike]

This was a great episode

 

We get flashbacks to the Great War, Bumblebee is getting funnier every episode, New Decepticon introduced, Blitzwing is friggin halarious, and best of all, no humans!!

Another good episode, w/ some nice character development for ratchet (glad we got some backstory about his time in the great war, why he doesn't want to talk about it, his injury, etc. Definitely darker than previous eps), and the first appearance from lockdown was nicely done as well (I thought he looked like a goth, robotic destro ).

 

It's good to have some eps w/ little to no human involvement.

 

Blitzwing is..well, interesting; I'm not sure if I like him or not.

 

Yay, Arcee!

 

So it got a bit darker w/ the great war flashbacks, two great new characters, and some actual character development; things are looking up!

 

So far this series has been better than I'd expected; hopefully they will keep up the good work.

I'm hoping Arcee will be back

[king kahn]

arcee will DEF be back! they set her up too well not to use her again. i would not be surprised to see her come back as a brainwashed decepticon

 

i LOVED this episode. this one and the last are better by themselves then anything we have been given since BM in terms of character development and pathos and well.....anything really. i am gonna actually collect the toy series of a show which is something i have not done since armada(sans a few alternators, movie and classic figures).

i would not be surprised to see her come back as a brainwashed decepticon

 

hm... black arachnia? That would make a killer story, but the voices are different, so I dont think so

[madman1366]

Yeah it was best episode so far, but that wasn't THAT difficult to do.

 

Let's see...we have a nice collection of ##$%$#ed human villians so far. An archer, a giant slug, an acid man, and let's not forget the Bane wannabe. Oh yeah...let's not forget the biggest baddie of them all so far....a mean Megatron head!!!

 

Well I'm used to the first 10-15 episodes being a bit on the lame side so I won't make any judgments just yet.

 

I hear next week's villian will be none other than.....@termibart@

I like that Megatron is in the background right now (at least physically; he's still been a threat, and the autobots don't even know it, which is also cool); it allows the show to build up to something (a rarity in any tf show other than bw, maybe bm), and we are actually getting character development, instead of, "what is megs gonna do this week?"..every week. It also allows other enemies some time to shine (starscream, lockdown). And we've finally gotten some decent human characters, Sumdac being one, which again is building to something (his being blind to megs' evil, and how that will play out). So..instead of a "flavor of the week" ep every week, there is a larger story/plotline going on here, which is nice to finally get again in a tf show.

So far there handling the series the right way. Its a nice build up to eventually whats going to happen. Once Megatron is back all hell is going to break loose. I can't wait to see the rest of the Autobots and Ultra Magnus in action.
