    They are heading towards Earth . . . and not a single human on the planet will see them.

    I guess this is the result of the partnership between Polygon Pictures and the Malaysian production team of Silver Ant Animation Studios.

    I think the Predacon model is a placeholder for one of the Dinobots. Screw the aligned continuity.

    I sure hope so. I know opinions are divided on certain things like his voice, but I absolutely love Prime Shockwave, especially his awesome design combining his G1 and DOTM looks together beautifully.

    And he would need to be a Voyager as well, since the show portrayed him as being rather big and powerful.

    Looks like Predaking just offed Shockwave. Well that sucks. I was hoping for a show-accurate Shockwave.

    The video quality is fine and I liked the cyberglyphs and scrambling effects, equipment sparking out. Its just that the shockwave model lacked a lot of depth and movement, and the voice was way off. Its not something I can see the show. The dragon claw is delivered in such a teaser way.

    Its a possibility that this ad is based on something that happens early on in season 3. and if predaking kills shockwave on the show. Then we might get a toy of shockwave.
    Its not that Shockwave does not have the potential to be a brilliant character to explore,
    See cliffjumper and skyquake.

    There's just no way this is from the actual show, not only is the animation sluggish the redenring is mcuh simpler too, tail and dragon foot don't have half of half of half of details that the one in the other trailer does, not to mention the wrong voice when we know David Sobolov is back for the other trailer.

    I think it's just a fun promo for Season 3. After watching it, I'm actually more excited for S3 than I was previously. I sense an Autobot/Deception team up to rid the galaxy of the bad beasties.

    That's sort of what I was feeling from the upgraded decepticon toys. The autobots get some upgraded armor and weapons to fight predacons, and the decepticons get some from the derelict ship as well.
    But was lacking information on what the decepticons role is going to be this series. Whether megatron keeps predaking on a leash and gets betrayed by predakings willpower.

    One smart thing about the artifact weapons this time is they can just introduce them as character specific special powers, give it a shot of the character cutting through some predacons with the flashy overkill and continue ahead with some plot development. Rather than just ending with them locking the artifact in the vault.

    I am not getting my hopes up for a Feb. return.

    This commercial could be just hype for the toyline, and have nothing to do with the show. Seems like quite the flip flop from Predicons as Autobot hunters, so now everyone is hunting Predicons.

    It is like the "Street Sharks in Space" toyline. Had nothing to do with what happened in the show. ;)

    It's just a promo for the Beast Hunters line in general. It's not from the show itself.

    It won't make it to a 4th season with the failure of the toys. I predict a "Last hope of Cybertron" cartoon coming. That way they can introduce new unused characters = more new toys.

    If only this was an add for Dinobots rather than Beasthunters.

    Really hoping the dinobots will be involved, not only would it mean new toys but itd even the odds against these super special awesome killer dragons the decepticons have

    from what we've seen of season 3 , the partnership made it look a hell of alot better. this is just a toy ad
