I don't see their personal alliance splitting off since Optimus is somewhat wary of GHOST given the whole "Bumblebee faking the dead" thing, and lord knows how he feels now that that's been blown to hell. I could see them both become further distrustful of GHOST given the last few episodes in the season seems to have the organization showing its true colors to a wider crowd.

 

I know this has probably already been asked but do we know when part 3 is releasing? I'm assuming they want rotb out first?

 

We don’t and likely after ROTB is out, same for why no Reactivate updates.

 

That memorial was for Larry Cullen, Peter's brother.

 

Got my hopes up for a brief moment, the second batch is going to start airing on June 12th on TV…

 

Just noticed that ES Frenzy has, in addition to her comb-over bangs with blue highlights and her optics looking like shades, also has painted "nails" and a studded belt.

 

She wears the scene aesthetic amazingly, but I seriously hope Mae Catt was joking about the deceased cassette being Rumble.

 

Where Rumble falls, may Enemy rise!

 

I heard that there's going to be a game based on Earthspark in the future,has anyone else?

 

There is supposed to be a game coming, but apart from being announced, nothing else has come from it

 

I was not prepared for Tarantulas’ characterization…

 

Yeah. Strong 'queer elder' vibes. I am here for it.

 

  I didn't get thise specific vibes from his characterization at all

 

Lol yeah I was thinking more Hammer horror Englishman, like Van Helsing or something.

 

A while back on this thread it was briefly discussed. Mae Catt likes to work in allegorical aspects, and the theme of that episode was definitely not subtle. Also:
QUEER ELDER TARANTULAS

Like there's very specific things that Mae noted, including minor pre-Noisemaze inspiration.

 

That tumblr link literally does nothing to expand on the point, like I said, I didn't get those vibes, if they were there I'd say it was actually pretty subtle.

 

It was definitely unexpected. While not my preferred version, Tarantulas was still a neat character and he and Nightshade are cool friends.

Would be cool to see both them work with Wheeljack.

 

Speaking of Wheeljack, I don't think he wears the same GHOST emblem as the other Autobots, save for Bumblebee, wear in the episodes. This brings up some very interesting implications: either Wheeljack doesn't formally work for GHOST and supplies the Autobots with tech he develops but isn't bothered by the higher ups because he's an Autobot and thus implied he won't turn on humans, or he's also on the run, like Bumblebee. It could lead to some context in "Traditions" when he really doesn't want to hang around Twitch and asks her to not even acknowledge him at all.

Kind of makes you wonder about the other Autobots out there, since we haven't seen much outside of Bumblebee, Optimus Prime, Arcee, Elita-1, Grimlock, and Wheeljack.

 

Wheeljack and Dot's VAs have posted on their instagrams they're doing recordings for season 2.

 

Makes sense, it certainly tracks with what we know about the second season and its confirmation.

Now we just need to wait for the last third of Season 1.
