    Chances are there may be an answer in the podcast, but looking at the chapter list are there any plans to do a Prime Time-esque supplemental for Rescue Bots, even if it's just the premiere?

    I kinda hope that doesn't happen, if only because that's some crazy extra workload to make it a separate recording.

    Smalltime podcast download, GO!

    In light of talking about Grails, I have submitted my first listener voicemail.
    I hope it reaches you people at some point in the next couple of years.

    With love, me.

    P.s. That was a beautiful introduction to the hotline Seth. I'd make it my ringtone if I could.

    I am hoping for some kinda Primetime-esque show re: Rescue Bots. Whether it be a separate podcast, or even just folded into the weekly show somehow (cuz for goodness sake, it's a kiddie show, what are the chances there'll be more than a half hour of discussion per episode, at most? I still want to hear it though, of course)

    Aww yeah delicious podcasts!

    We sawthe normal Que and Soundwave their normal colours at toyfair so Id hope theyd get a domestic release.

    I do really like the voyager Prime a lot but that may be because I dont own the deluxe and my legs tab in really nicely. And Vangelous if you want ill buy one of your bulkheads off you ;)

    Rescue Bots Roll to the Rescue! (The rescue bots cartoon is pretty cool)

    If the only deco of Wheeljack and Soundwave we get turns out to be the more G1 style redecos in next years offscreen universe movie line. I'd be cool with that, but I can understand why people would want a shelf of all the movie character deluxes from their onscreen representation. Watch your TJMaxx and Ross stores next year.

    Shockwave being responsible for the Dinobots alt mode is not a new concept for FoC. Simon Furman and Nick Roche did it back in 2006 in IDW's Spotlight: Shockwave.

    Glad to hear (at least some) Rescue Bots discussion. I agree that a devoted episode-by-episode edition isn't necessary, but I'm hoping you guys will discuss it somewhat as it airs.

    And, if you recall I had said that I bought the Rescue Bots for my boys for Christmas, well, we started wrapping them yesterday, and I wanted to take this pic before they tore into them Christmas morning since I won't have this chance again...

    I'm just as excited to play with them as they will be. :D

    Speaking of, it is on the TV right now, repeat though, Hate the mid season breaks GRRRRRRRR

    This season has turned out better than I was expecting, amazing how even after nearly 10 years all the character continue to grow like real people you see everyday where so many other series just go stale and die in half that time. While I know it was meant for the current characters as a side effect of the care they give the series even dead characters like Kate have posthumously grown through her sister being introduced years later. That kind of complexity and quality is rarer and rarer on TV in the modern era. :)

    Re: Bay's company making the Fall trailer.

    Just because his company made the thing doesn't mean he had anything to do with it. At the very least we know he didn't direct it. Thus the criticism of "this is how you make a Transformers movie" is still completely valid.

    Sure Bay didn't have the reigns, but plenty of people feel that anything that he breathes the same air as is doomed to explode or some such.

    Alright, my question got answered! I'm finally part of the fandom!

    After hearing Omegus' answer, I actually went back to watch a couple of the Season 3 episodes and saw what he mentioned. There was a subtle dynamic between the two and I got to say, seeing it actually made sense.

    I was actually expecting a lot of bizarre answers like Ultra Magnus and Sixshot from Headmasters or Dai Atlas vs someone or other, or Rumble vs everyone else (including his fellow Decepticons) in the G1 toon. Is it just me or did everyone have it in for Rumble?

    I've got the same urge to get a Rescue Bot, I've been considering Chase when I find him since I liked him the most in the premiere.

    Also, I think Wheeljack/Que and Soundwave may end up like some of the RtS stuff and will be seen down the line at stores like Ross/Marshalls/TJ Maxx. Legion Soundwave has been out in the US for a bit though, and he is pretty cool. I'd rank him up there with Flak and Crowbar for Cyberverse Legions.
