    Nope, there was a massive delay of about half a year or more, the series finished season 1 (which started in 2007 december) before the toys appeared MUCH later in 2008 June.

    What I don't get is... Machinima Made "Justice League - Gods and Monsters" for DC, and it was genuinely good. Well animated, well acted, with an intriguing story, and with actual professional actors as the voices. So what happened? Or... is Machinima even a company, or just a "style" of moviemaking?

    Machinima is a channel. Machinima did not write this, they did not animate it. They didn't make Gods & Monsters, either. Machinima put money into it, but they aren't the creators.

    That's like saying you don't know how some Syfy channel tv movie of the week could be such garbage, because didn't they do that great Battlestar Galactica series?

    Pretty disappointed that each episode is only 5 minutes long...I was expecting at least the usual 22 minute episode... Also how did Menasor, the combination of 6 Decepticons, get himself killed by only 2 bots. Unless Windblade has some kind of special powers, the combiner threat seems pretty insignificant, much less than what the IDW comics made them out to be.

    Probably like in Energon how the combiners are, since they are a lot more intelligent and sentient here.

    I do feel bad for her.

    So, where are the videos? I stopped somewhere around episode 4 I guess, when Windblade, Megatron and Optimus faced the council and Starscream turned big. I looked for weeks, I can't find the episodes on Youtube anymore.

    Maybe I'm just too stupid to find them. But usually I find everything I want. So I guess the few private videos on the machinima channel are probably the CW videos...

    Please LMK when/if you have new links, etc.

    I'll update the Mega Thread Sticky to keep folks informed, especially those new to the series.
