    No the worst part was Proffesor Princess. That is true hell right there.

    TFA BB is cute and actually had real personality something the current versions lacked.

    If you can't stand what he does, doesn't that make you bias towards his projects?

    I understand getting your opinion out, and I will admit some of the ideas didn't make me as excited as others, but if you hate Wyatt's work the way you've shown, it makes no sense to me why you'd go onto a thread discussing his TF related work.

    On a lighter note, should be interesting what the Collectors club panel will have for us. The Scourge exclusive might just start one hell of a riot XD

    Woah where did all the animated hatred come from all of a sudden.
    I loved animated but Bumblebee was in no way the worst part of it....Professor Princess on the other hand

    Why did animated have to end! Season 4 sounds like the closest thing to get new beast wars stories. I enjoyed the panel. I like the idea of bumble prime. Bumblebee would have been way more mature if he was a prime.

    Animated filled the hole Beast Wars left. I was so excited about this line.

    And this info makes it worse.

    I miss TFA

    If you had just said you didn't like the ideas, that's one thing, but comments like this one:


    That just bugs me, it's one thing to say you don't like something, it's a whole other level when you start insulting it and the people who enjoy it.

    sorry, i have been away from these boards for a while and I forgot how politically correct and sensitive you have to be here. I apologize, it was more so me just venting and letting some frustrations out when hearing some of these ideas.

    If Proffesor Princess had been in it as much as Bumblebee I would probably agree with you.

    I agree Bumblebee had a personality, a douchy one I couldn't stand, so I don't agree.

    I mean Prime did some things better like Ratchet, Arcee, Starscream and had Knockout, Dreadwing and the Vehicons put them in their the rest of the TFA continuity is flawless.

    I wonder if DJW would have made Arcee a badass go to action chick had Prime came out before TFA? Not much of a fan of damsel in distress.

    Eh I'd rather have a douche than a nobody.

    Reading that summary was TORTURE! I really miss Animated, and I liked it more than TF Prime. The Bumble Prime vs Galvatron episode sounds awesome. It sounds like it would've been a one-off episode, like some of those 90s X-Men episodes showing us Bishop and Cable and middle-aged Wolverine in the future fighting some Sentinels.

    I'm not sure I would've wanted to see Prowl come back as a ghost, though. I thought his death was quite powerful, and it would feel cheapened if Prowl could come back and freely communicate with the cast.

    Bulkhead as the torso of Devastator? I didn't see that one coming. I just wish we could have the darn Mixmaster and Scrapper toys! I wonder if this could have seen the set of a new combiner team (of toys), with perhaps a Bulkhead remold? We'll never know...

    I wonder if this will see the start of Animated Devastator kitbashes, using Leader Bulkhead as the torso...

    I love TFA Ratchet but Prime Ratchet is funnier and I like Jeffrey Combs performance more than Corey Burton.

    Each had their charm and each is entertaining.

    I love Prime Ratchet for the design, the humor, the voice, it all fits so well together.

    But I haven't see Prime Ratchet show the kind of emotion I saw with TFA Ratchet and Omega Supreme, and that's really the key difference between them

    Prime Ratchet is great on his own

    TFA Ratchet is great while working off of others, particularly Bumblebee and Omega.

    Both are great Ratchets for sure. But I liked how TFA Ratchet fit in with so much of the backstory. In a way he was almost the main character.

    Yeah. Their both great. Put all the their strengths together and we have the greatest Ratchet period.

    Too bad the Bayformer versions fails at being emotional, funny or useful.
