    Sounds fun, but I am sick of the Animated/Prime aesthetic. No interest in watching this or the products, but i'm happy for those that are excited.

    No, we don't need more Scorn. We need more Galvatron!

    Sideswipe looks like Knockout and Groose from Skyward Sword combined

    Yes. That's a unique design, unlike the RID one.

    Sideswipe's design reminds me of Knock Out.

    We can have both. Galvatron isn't a dinobot.

    Told yaa! Back on Earth doing Earth business because essentially a show based on Cybertron is too alien for kids. Even when the initial artwork image had gleaming Cybertron in the background.

    The description makes it sound totally weak. It's going to be littered with pansy episodes.

    I honestly thought that Fixit was Wheelie before I read the names. But anyways, I like the idea of a mix matched team!

    It looks like TFA aesthetics a little bit.

    Hard to judge anything based one or two images but I expect this to be aimed at a much younger audience as I remember the powers that be saying something about TFP being too scary for some.

    So confirmed Characters for PRID2 consist of:
    1. Bumblebee: The Leader
    2. Sideswipe: The Jerk
    3. Fixit: The Minicon Medic
    4. A Elite Guard Recruit: The Rookie
    5. A Dinobot: The Tank

    Fist; The Dinobot can't be Grimlock, because Grimlock is not a second fiddle to Bumblebee. All the Dinobots deserve a spot.

    Second; The cast sounds like 3 Deluxe'e, 1 Minicon, and a Voyager Dinobot, or Wave 1. So I wonder if Minicon ports will exist line wide or the Minicon is a Target Master.

    Third; I going to presume the Elite Guard Rookie is a new Female Autobot Motor Cycle, because I can't imagine a new Female Dinobot going over well without controversy, and Fixit look like he'll turn into a Side Car, so there needs to be a Motor Cycle.

    EEeeeeeeeeeehh I still don't have high hopes for this. I still plan on checking out a few episodes, but with BB in the main role and the cast that's been announced. I just don't know.

    Hearing Elite Guard member I can't help but think Hot Shot. :shudder:

    Kind of funny if he turned out to be his protege or something of the like. Only in the opposite direction of Knockout's obsession with his appearance.

    Reading the description it sounds like it's going to be in direct comparison with
    animated because it sounds like what the characters do is what happened in Animated. You ready for the Animated shit storm Hasbro? There's no escape lol.

    Wow, that's a creative title. :redface2:  It's about as imaginative as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Heroes in a Half Shell, or The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes (oh wait, that's been done already).

    So, just as I suspected, it would be more like TFA than TFP. That makes me sad.

    We're getting a fembot I hope. Maybe as the Elite Guard rookie.

    ...might be a good time to use Windblade some more...

    Interesting. I actually like the designs so far. Plus the premise [minus the whole 'going back to Earth'] sounds like Beast Wars Neo.

    The leader, the Jerk, The Rookie, the Tank, The Medic. Now all we're missing is the Ninja.

    Ha ha since you're a TFP hardcore addict!

    I've noticed that you like bumping the TFP/BH toys appreciation thread even tho the show is over.
