Dailymotion is usually a good source for getting around restrictions, but don’t expect things to be in HD.

I knew I forgot something...

Spoiler

I did notice Wheeljack figured prominently, which makes as much sense from the Wheeljack x Shockwave rivalry as it does the origins of Grimlock, and, so, their continued proximity.

But, I hadn’t really thought about the implications of that false memory, and that is a nicely subtle bit of story telling that reveals that the ‘Cons know just about as much as ‘Bee and ‘Blade! ;P

And, I haven’t looked at any of the coming attractions, so I don’t yet know if there’s a future dohickey that allows them to enter Bee’s memories, again. Of course, that framing device has been put to really good use, but...

I’m excited for plot advancements! And, I’m even cautiously optimistic about the potential, likely human characters that they may run into.

Particularly, I imagine that Grimlock might be amnesiac and working as a theme park’s animatronic Tyrannosaurus Rex, and ‘Bee and ‘Blade have to haggle with the staff to let their Dino go. Or... Grimsy’s just in a cryopod in some mountain... {:

 

This series is really growing on me I’ve enjoyed the way they’ve kept the story going by reliving a variety of different memories, and providing some pretty decent character interactions. Quite like this depiction of Shockwave too he’s no Corey Burton but he’s still pretty good. Also nice touch with Optimus in the fake memory loved the references.

 

Not a bad episode, Good dipiction of Shockwave and Rack n\' Ruin was a big surprise. I look forward to the next episode, hopefully they won\'t go too long without somewhere for Bee to plug into. His radio voice is the worst yet. I\'ve gotten used to it being his gimmick in most places at this point but in this it\'s execptionally awful, especially considering his real voice is pretty good imo. Still not digging Grimlock\'s voice. Hopefully when they eventually find him he\'s a little more like the brutish, feral Grimlock we all know and love. It probably wouldn\'t be as bad if the voice actor didn\'t ham it up so much, he sounds like he belongs in the British upper class in the 1800s.

 

...ugh; why is the direction sooooo bad?!..

...there are so many elements of a decent story in there which want to get out, but the voice direction, the animation direction, the production are so c-list it just makes me gnash my teeth!..was rescue bots really that much more expensive to produce than this in-house dross?..'cause this production isn't doing what it takes to hook a new generation on the franchise, certainly not at the level of its competitors...

 

Are... Are you seriously implying this looks worse than the tweeting flash cartoons storyboarded by teenagers hired off tumblr? Because it isn't, literally the only cartoon with better direction than this going on right now is adult series on Netflix or ninja turtles.

 

I love the seekers their so cool  

 

...i haven’t seen any flash cartoons storyboarded by teenagers hired off tumblr: has the state of the industry plummeted that precipitously in the past two years?..

...i’m just comparing it to hasbro’s other recent productions before they pulled everything in-house with boulder media...

 

I dunno dude, it seems like the people working on this cartoon actually give a damn as a opposed to rid2015

 

I hope not because that means they jump on wtf train. The train never stops. You either have to jump off or on. Some people already on that train. *cough* Tramp *cough*

 

Cartoon network is in trouble even with the actual Los Angeles animation guild mad that they've been hiring kids online for peanuts to save money, and the visual direction on those shows is telling.

 

Cartoon Network doesn't even finance or produce the modern Peanuts shorts; they're only one of the many distributors of that French-animated cartoon. Where are you getting your claims from, because it's really hard to cite any of them as being remotely truthful? And that's not even getting into the ridiculous "hired from Tumblr" acquisitions...

Anyways, good episode with another status quo shake-up. I'm really loving how Cyberverse take advantage of being a closely serialized show, despite being 11-minute episodes (which similar cartoons tend to struggle with not overloading on episodic adventures).

"Slashimus Prime" is probably the funniest and horrific sights I've seen out of this interpretation of Prime.
