    A clarifying note to Hasbro's executives, in case they happen to read this (I know they were worried about the disc):
    The original disc is kept safe and will be returned promptly as promised. We didn't want to risk it being lost, so we made a disposable copy with the intent of destroying it after the showing. And that was also done, just as LoC Soundwave said. :)

    It all sounds cool -except the description of Sentinel Prime.

    Still, it's cool that he is included at all.

    I thought SP, looke more like Triggerhappy. He has thse two on each side (4 total) of white pipes with orange tips on them and the same blue color. He could be a jet of some sort, It is all just specualtions really.

    Didn't we hear awhile back that he was a monster truck?

    The Triggerhappy comparison sounds much better!

    Actually, it was a cryptic rumor, and we never did get the full version of it. Monster Truck was one of the guesses that a lot of people agreed on, though it could have been something completely different for all we know. Personally, I hope that we see something of Sentinel Prime, Ultra Magnus, and Shockwave sometime in the near future, as I'm really curious as to what they'll look like, and what their toys will look like (which I plan to get).

    Cool. This all sounds pretty awesome! Can't wait for this series to come out and the toys already had me interested! :lol  IF the show is as good as everyone's saying just from that little bit I'll end up collecting an entire line for this first time in a long while...

    Ah I see! Thought the monster truck sentinel prime rumor came from a legitimate source. I can't wait to see him, magnus and shockwave too. Curious as too what Swoop will look like in robot mode too! And what kinda weapon he'll have.

    To be honest, the origional source of the rumor was legitimate, it's just that someone's translation of it into Monster Truck was taken a little far, lol. I think Swoop will be the skinny one of the Dinobots, and probably have sword, or something similar, for his weapon. Personally, I'm hoping that some more older characters make appearances, since it seems that Animated is somewhat of a continuation of G1, but definetly with some of it's own elements added into it. Thing is, if it is meant to have a continuation vibe to it, then Animated Ratchet probably isn't the Ratchet from G1. I'm begining to confuse myself with different theorys, lol.

    At first sight, I really didn't like the the art style of TF Animated, but I've warmed up to it now. I have to admit, I like everything I've heard about it so far, especially the young, inexperienced Prime instead of the usual. Megatron with the old school style cannon is too cool for words.

    IF they attempt to put animated into G1 continuity, I wonder how they'll explain BlackArachnia...

    Perhaps a descendent to the BW version?
