    Man, that was totally the guy who did the doofy fake Prime voice for the Masterpiece Prime soundbox.

    OMG!! The Autobots cut-outs "marching" forward. The close-up of Starscream's misalligned faction symbol. MEGS FACE AT THE END OF THE VIDEO!!!

    This is one SWAT Kat background and an appearance from Space Ghost away from being something Williams Street would make.

    On the plus side, I expect a humorous TFWIKI entry or reaction JPGs out of this debacle.

    That was some of the worst animation I've ever seen.

    One of the worst parts about this though, IMO, was the pacing.

    Pacing was WAY too fast.

    Was there some kind of story in...that thing?

    So this isn't meant to sell toys then?
    If that's the case what's the point?

    It sounded to me that whoever did Optimus's voice was channeling the actor who played he-man in the 80's masters of the universe cartoon, as much as Peter Cullen.

    Almost anything fan-produced was better than this. If this is their idea of doing to G1 Transformers what they're doing for GI Joe with their online webisodes, then count me out. That was ... not impressive. The art looked cool in some instances, but for the most part ... not liking it at all.

    Well, I just took a glance at it and it looks corny as hell, but it needs work. But I don't know I kinda like it because of it being horrible and yet I like to see more. If you call that weird then..guilty as charged.

    It's amazing something made in 2008 actually looks worse than the 1984 cartoon. GG Hasby.

    That's just plain embarassing, anyone outside of the fandom watching that could be put off Transformers for life.

    Man that was weeeaaak. To call that "animation" is a stretch even for bad Flash.

    Prime sounds like the Movie Phone guy with too much "robot" processing on his voice.

    Also, I continue to hate yellow on Prime's head!

    Cullen it's not.

    I can't say I share your opinion there.

    If not, it sure sounds just as goofy.

    Probably.

    Personally, I think this Prime voice sounds like a bad impersonation of the voice used on the Robot Chicken episode where Prime needs a certain type of exam. The voice on that episode was funny; this one was just . . . not Prime?

    I'm really not trying to be either harsh or a "Geewuner", but I've just such an affinity for Peter Cullen's voice as Optimus Prime, that I really can't accept a substitute.

    Wow. Homestar Runner animates their cartoons for free, and they can do better than still images being jerked around on screen.

    Also, pretty bad Cullen impersonation.
