Very interesting! Makes me wonder what other Wreckers Hardshell has encountered

Also, for a moment, is it just me or did Hardshell sounded like Scott McNeil's BW Dinobot
ken8kuhletz08
Wow! The clip is almost 2 minutes! Great find!


EDIT: YouTube link, anyone?

Thanks. Yeah, I was surprised to see the clip be that long too.
Axelle
Daaayum. Very interesting indeed. And that is definitely David Kaye voicing Hardshell. Excellent, yeees.
ORIO
Nice find Cheez Doodle.
General Tekno
Hope that clip isn't the last we see of Hardshell.

My god! Bulkhead, you old 'Con crusher. You're back to being your badass self!
TFW10
That's for sharing.

Dual wielding for teh win! I hope we get an insecticon toy!
soundwave142
I think I like bulkhead a little more now We'll see hardshell around l8r tho
baggzey23
Hardshell got his ass kicked?
megapork
Hardshell is awesome, he just needs a bit more distance from being just an insecticon other than yellow stripes. Maybe a bit more purple and a face mask.
alekesam
Nice! Is this the first time Bulkhead's ever had duo wrecking balls or I just missed it before?
shroobmaster
Why does Bulkhead even bother shooting the shots just... bounce off the motherfucker.

Brave Magnus
So, basically, karma time for Bulkhead? XD
Thanks for posting the link!

I'm going to laugh so hard if that's literally all what Hardshell does.

Voyager? Dude, I want an Ultra class. With creepy Insecticon wing-buzzing sound.

This guy needs stature.

I think he'll be doing more damage to Bulkhead based on the earlier promo clip. But yeah, the thought of having a mid-season break over a con who barely did anything would be funny. Come to think of it, how would David Kaye react to this?!

Well he (Hardshell) did get his butt kicked in that clip, so maybe Knock-Out has to do some modifications once Hardshell gets back to the ship?

are there going to be any more new episodes after this one?

We have more 11 episodes after 15, but we will have a break after this one. We don't know how long it will be but cartoons nowadays it will probably be like 3 to 4 weeks-ish.
Transformed
Very Nice! Can't wait for Sunday (Saturday for folks in the States). This is going to be good!

This. And from what I've observed from sites offering TV schedules and listings, they post new episodes of TFP 1-2 weeks in advance.
Ironhide4
At first it sounded like the great Scott McNeill but this is definately david kaye, can hear BW megs slightly
Meta777
Bulkhead seems entirely unperturbed the thing is actually talking to him in eloquent sentences. Cool.

Hardshell seems pretty cool, but he isn't displaying the insane acrobatic craziness as other prominent bugs. He should work on that XD
FanimusMaximus
So much for Hardshell becoming a new permanent character.

Nah, we haven't heard him say his promo quote yet. Chances are, there will be a second fight in store.

And round 2 is where Hardshell will supposedly use Knockout's Synthetic Energon to boost his chances of beating Bulkhead. I sure hope this will bid the return of SynthEn.

Don't you mean Hardshell? Knock-Out is busy playing Squash with the trains and hatin' on Soundwave while this is going down.

What I mean is he would somehow use Knockout's SynthEn formula. Or probably the relic itself is the one which will give him the power he needs.

Either way, the speculation on this one is so intense!
Transformed
When was synthetic Energon being used in this episode ever mentioned? I don't recall ever reading that. Besides, I don't think Knock Out feels like helping Megatron out all that much at the moment if he even had it.

It seems unlikely that Synthetic Energon is even ready. If it were, why didn't Knock Out use hours earlier? He could have saved him safe a ton of scratches and an @$$ kickin' if had

.....interesting you mention that, given how POed Knock Out was after last week's episode. Maybe it'll come back in some form...
Sumner Sturgeon
That seems to confirm my suspicions about David Kaye. And something tells me it's gonna take a lot more than just knocking off one of his mandibles to bring this guy down for good. I imagine Bulkhead's going to have a nasty surprise waiting for him once he reaches the relic, whatever it may be.
SPLIT LIP
Hope that's not the last of Hardshell. I'd love for the Insecticon model to be an actual character and not just cannon fodder.
Stygian360
Theory time. Possibly the Insecticons try out the SynthEn formula, each succumbing to its effects as if it's battery acid on steriods because the formula isn't refined under the guiding but flawed hand of Knockout, only to have one of them take to it better than the others. I'm guessing the Insecticon who blossoms under its effects is Hardshell, which then gives him the ability to tear Bulkhead a new one- hence him being thrown/jumping through the groundbridge back to Autobot HQ with a smoking crater where his chest should be.

This would help lend credence to the "Toxicity" title for this episode, as the formula doesn't work as hoped on some Transformers.

2 minutes!?

Except that it's implied that Hardshell already has some kind of established history of putting the screws to previous Wreckers from his lines, and we know Wreckers are (typically) in the same tough-as-nails category as Bulky. Still, I wouldn't mind if this theory held some water anyway.
Arbitron
Yep. Definitely David Kaye.

Hope Hardshell is a permanent character.
Ravenxl7
Looks like Bulkhead might have himself a new nemesis. Assuming he's able to survive this encounter, that is.

Hey, what if Hardshell is the one who reveals the past of Bulkhead/Wheeljack/Breakdown and stuff? That would be interesting
skiss
Only bad thing here is that I'm finding out from you guys that we will be getting a break =*(. Great clip though, looking forward to seeing it.

Hhahaah, Knockout really does strike me as the jealous type, you know. Like, maybe not the kind to flat out cause problems right away, but rather the one who ends up getting a 2 parter on CSI after at least a season of built up frustration.
Hypershock
hooooolllllyyyyy shiiiiiittte

If there aint a toy of this guy i'm gonna be really upset
Oberoniss
Wow, Hardshell is awesome.
Stardust262
Nice.

I hope we get more name-dropped Wreckers, as well as some information regarding Bulkhead and Breakdown's history if possible

That really sounds like David Kaye. I must admitt I am disappointed that he's just voicing an Insecticon, even if Hardshell's a reoccurring character
