    I'm glad they decided to go with 3D cel shaded characters on traditional backgrounds. It'll give fans more vibrant character and a rich environment for them to play in. Aside from the overall youthful design element, I have very high hopes for the show.

    Hard to believe, but there is now an entire generation of kids who has grown up without ever learning the Konami code.

    I keep thinking I'm watching an extended cereal commercial. That can't be a good sign. Something about this reminds me of a Cookie Crisp or Trix commercial. It's just that bad! And the clips were ultra-boring & really goofy/stupid.

    What age range is this meant for? Is it like Rescue Bots? I thought it was supposed to be a Prime sequel but this seems like it's for a much younger audience. I love Prime but I hate this.

    Bisk/Bisque..... oy vey. :lol  Still, interesting character.

    Grimmy as an ex-Con. And he speaks in complete sentences. And he sounds like Cyborg from Teen Titans (so does Bisk/Bisque). Oddly enough, it works for me.

    Swipes as the Bot's resident red ninja is pretty cool. Strongarm.... I'm hoping Zimmer grows more comfortable with voicing her character since at the moment, her performance is a bit stiff (which should fit a rigid by-the-books character but here it's just stilted and emotionless). Still, I'm hopeful for Strongarm and look forward to seeing her character develop.

    Friedle as Bee is noyce, and I'm liking the TFP continuity acknowledgement. Fixit.... I like him. He's definitely hiding something, of course, and I'm hoping his manipulative ways comes to fruition and turns into something big plot-wise.

    Animation could use some polish but maybe it's just new show hiccups and these issues will iron themselves out over time.

    I actually enjoyed this and the animation didn't annoy me like it did with the trailers.

    I'd gladly watch this show.

    I gotta say one thing, I love the fact that the vehicle Strongarm scanned for her vehicle mode was not identical to the end result of her transformation. It always seems stupid when transformers just happen to find a vehicle that perfectly fits them both in shape and coloration.

    I am looking at you Prime Smokescreen.

    I like the Bisque name. After all, in G1, we had Snapdragon, a pun referencing a flower.

    This series looks pretty good to me so far. I'm glad for some Animated-style lightheartedness and fun, rather than the constant faux-emo of Prime (which I did like, but grudgingly). If the writing quality stays at least at this level, it'll be a nice way to spend half an hour a week.

    I just love cheesy the name Bisque is. Bisque is a thick cream soup, especially of puréed shellfish or vegetables.

    Not every Decepticon is a hardened killer, patriot, or deceiver, you know. His eyes bug me though.

    Positives:

    - Bumblebee's actually tolerable AND enjoyable.

    - OhgodIloveStrongarm

    - Humans ain't that bad.

    - Fixit's pretty cool. Supposed to be a Mini-Con from what I heard, yes?

    Negatives:

    - Still don't like Sideswipe's design, especially the "hairdo".

    - Grimlock's voice is not fitting at all. Also, I don't like his head design.

    - Bisk/Bisque is not an enjoyable character. Please be a one-off, you're annoying.

    - Writing's pretty bad.

    Actually, I'm just following word of The Covenant of Primus, Rage of the Dinobots, and the Beast Hunters comic. They just say the same as Fall of Cybertron regarding the Dinobots' origins. And if those reference FOC and Prime, and RiD calls itself the sequel to Prime, then I'm going to connect the dots.

    All I'm saying is the Con badge is odd.
