    Whoa! Rodimus Prime looks frikkin' sweet! I love that energon bow and arrow. That's the thing about Animated: while I miss the guns, the unique weapons they use are definitely a plus for me.

    Strika certainly resembles her BM counterpart. Call me wierd but I think she looks more like an actual fembot here more than she did in Beast Machines. Maybe we might see an animated version of Obsidian as well... unless Animated Blackout is his replacement.

    Green Arrow? He doesn't really strike me as a Green Arrow lookalike to me. Definitely more like Hawkeye. And if he's anything like G1 Hot Rod, Hawkeye's personality would fit better.

    Man I can't wait!

    The colours are so dark HR looks almost black, not that that's bad! Black and Red would look great!

    Just wait until you see what is actually IN the magazine. Something we have never done before and something Animated fans (and maybe even old school G1 fans) should go nuts over. Derrick and CN has taken really great care of us and TCC members are going to be stoked!

    I really wish I was part of the TFCC now, hopefully it won't take long for whatever's in the magazine to become public.

    Oh, man...those designs are just class. :thumbs2:  Rodimus looks a hundred times better in full colour, and Strika is wonderfully faithful to her BM incarnation. I'm also loving the promise of outer space battles hinted at in the screenshot...will Animated Season Three be taking cues from G1 Season Three, I wonder?

    Oh, and I'll add my voice to the chorus: toys of these, please. ASAP. :D  All we need now, as fosterlager says, is Animated Sky-Byte, and then we can all die happy.

    That cover is the bomb! I like Hot Rod with the arows, makes him seem more like a leader. Strika looks like a brute, but i never cared for her. I can't wait to get the issue. I hope there will be some kind of article on them.

    AWESOME. Rodimus' head is a little big, though.

    Sweet! Both characters look great... And I was pretty close with my color scheme guess for Rodimus -- except the hands and chest.. And I love the bow and arrow!!
