    Me and some other members got to watch the first 2 episodes of Beast Hunters last night. Here is the rundown. Instead of writing a huge paragraph detailing everything that happens I'll use the outline method of what happened. And If I miss anything you guys can always ask me or maybe Keldroc who was there can also help me out. Spoilers below. Only on this first post will i be using spoiler code after that I'm hoping people will know better than to scroll down if they don't wanna get spoiled :) 

    Jasper has been devestated, however it's inhabitants have been evacuated.
    Optimus is near death, but being cared for by Smokescreen.
    All Autobots and their human companions have been ported far away from Jasper. They are all trying to make it back to Jasper because that is the rendevouz.
    Megatrons fortress where the Autobots base used to be before now is armed with a very powerful cannon. It can reach anywhere in the U.S. and pretty much cause a lot of destruction.
    Megatron tells Fowler that humans are no threat to the decepticons now that the autobots are gone, and he wants to coexist (lying)
    Bumblebee changed his paint job, so that his profile no longer matches what the decepticons are looking for.
    Autobots and humans are not calling/comlinking each other so they won't get tracked.
    The Decepticons have recovered all the relics the autobots had at their possession. Except for the shifter Smokescreen has.
    Smokescreen is going to use the shifter to try to get Optimus the hammer to rebuild himself.
    Shockwave is not dead of course and is now also 2nd in command. Starscream is the military leader, SW is the scientific experiment leader.
    Ultra Magnus shows up at the end of the second episode, lands on his ship. Says nothing yet.
    Wheeljack was captured by the decepticons but escapes.
    Ratchet at one point wants nothing to do with the war, but eventually is coerced by Raf and Bee to keep fighting.
    Raf, Bee and Ratchet start using the base Starscream was using before to try and make that their base of operations.
    At the end of the second episodes Predaking i think thats his name, comes out. Just like in the previews/trailers.

    No new intro.

    The QnA revealed that the whole beast hunters premise was not added until late in the game. Most likely by execs. They had to be "plugged in" is what one of the producers said.

    There were only 2 shown. However 4 episodes were done 3 months ahead of schedule. That might be what you're referring to.

    :banghead:  I suck, I know! :eek: 

    But still I wonder what they could find inside that Starscream didn't.

    She did appeared for a cameo, but still stuck in stasis as usual. Nothing much about her then.

    Yup I saw it! Gosh, Season 3 already is damn epic.

    And no, unless asked, I will not be posting post-Ep 2 spoilers.

    Let's just say the ending of Ep.4 is not new. But hell, TFP Ultra Magnus's character Already reminds me alittle of TFA Sentinel Prime though.

    She was shown bringing Megatron one of the relics back. For about 3 seconds. No fighting or anything between the two. Almost like a peace offering it seemed.

    What. Seriously? Is there no backstory to them getting her out or anything? She just shows up?

    No. The show hasnt reached to the point of pessimism for the Autobots yet. At the end of ep.4, you sure as hell know it's the other way round. There's hope for the Bots. :D

    Regarding the premiere, we saw everything as one big cut. A movie if you will. It ran for approximately 48 minutes give or take a few. So that's why those of us that were there figure it was about 2 episodes.

    When you guys see the episodes, they are very dark, very depressing times for the Autobots. This is their darkest time on the series. However they seemed a bit rushed. And going by the Q&A session answers I posted on the News forum. You can tell why. They had to rush everything 3 months ahead of schedule at the request of Execs,
    and they had to add beast hunters as well. This is probably why Arachnids relationship coming back to the fold was only glanced over.

    What? Airachid still is in stasis.

    EDIT: As far as I saw the TV movie shown in my country Singapore.
