    I vote, Animated should stay original and less G1.

    Not really, he could realise his clones just don't cut it and decide to recruit like-minded Decepticons to defect with him and form his own faction, the Combaticons. First he saves and recruits Swindle and uses his intel.

    My god, five pages in and no AUTOBOP nominations?

    You people... sometimes... Do I have to win the thread all by myself here?

    I still like the Ultimate Doom. Though the ending was VERY last minute, and 'wtf'.
    For me that's the only thing that needs to be changed.

    That would be kinda difficult since Animated is OOZING with G1 out all of its pores. With a few other TF references to accompany it.

    Well that aint going to happen lol

    I still want the "Desertion of the Dinobots" episode because I think that is a great episode for so many reasons and would work to further the Dinobots story line in animated. Plus Swoop is one of my favorite characters and this is really a plug for him to get a voice finally.

    I like BWS' and Julliant's version of Starscream's Brigade, the only problem is that, of five Combaticons, a few of them would be extraneous, without room to flesh them out or time in an episode to have fun with them and TFA seems to be keeping the numbers trim (compared to G1).
    Though, sweet mother of babbling god, I would punch people to get an animated Bruticus.

    C'mon, someone join in the Auto-Bop love...

    I second The Big Broadcast - the fun the TFA writers could have with it would be immense.

    And, if Prime Target was done, I'd probably just cast PCP as Lord Chumley.

    Or PCP hiring Lord Chumley.

    As for Scream's Brigade, he could recruit his Combaticons 1 by 1, or maybe 2 at at a time, so his story could stretch for 2 or 3 episodes.

    If they ever do Starscream's Brigade, I hope instead of recruiting all of 'em he just gets Onlslaught, Brawl and a new aerial robot based on Blast Off and Vortex together.

    No Swindle this time, Swindle needs to be a no faction deals-loving character.

    How about some Animated Mini Cons?

    I would definitely like to see G1 movie remade with animated characters, its the best way to show a ton of new animated characters, tons of action and interesting character traits.

    War Dawn only that instead of a Prime origin it's Megatron's origin.

    We've some bots fall from grace it would be entertaining if Megatron had a Cy-kill like origin being once one of the best Autobots.

    Great idea! Would like to see Megatron as a great cybertronian politician.

    Stunticons and Aerialbots FTW.

    A remake of War Dawn based around Megatron's origins would be an excellent option. The only problem is there needs to be an Autobot(s) that aren't overly sure that the Decepticons are all that bad. Or prehaps it's an Ultra Magnus flash back episode as well.

    "Fire in the Sky," if for no other reason than to introduce Skyfire. I liked that episode a lot, too.

    Golden Lagoon. It sends a strong message.

    It would be an excellent episode for Prowl, and his nature-loving ways.

    Prowl: "We, won?" *Looking at a desecrated forest, what was once a paradise untouched by mankind and war.*
