    It blows that we are going to see the Predacons and get 0 figures. I haven't collected Transformers since 1990 and my son and I love the animated stuff. If they combine it will really suck.

    Awesome... Been waiting long enough for the new season. I'll have to wake myself up earlier than normal on Saturdays to watch it before I go to work.

    Predacons Rising sounds especially interesting. Remember: Waspinator's bio refers to him being ONE OF Blackarachnia's experiments. There has to be at least 1 more Pred in that mix. So that means either Spittor, or somebody else... ??

    Wasn't "Predacons Rising" the episode that Bob Forward and Larry DiTillio were rumoured to have been writing, or was that bogus speculation? I sincerely hope that was true; it would just be delicious icing on a particularly awesome cake.

    I'm also really rooting for the "TransWarped" movie to somehow not count as part of the 13-episode season; add "Transform & Roll Out" to that, and we'd actually end up with 45 episodes, which is actually fairly close to the 52 episode totals of Beast Wars and the three Unicron Trilogy series. It's still shorter than it might have been, but I wouldn't feel quite as aggrieved about it then...:)

    WOOT! Finally! I'll be waiting for them to get uploaded on Youtube then.

    I know it sounds like the episode title Five Faces of Darkness from G1, but did anyone realize it says Five Servos of Doom?

    servos = limbs

    Bit of indication to some Combiners? :drool:  That's just my :2c: .

    Please excuse my ignorance as I'm not much of a TV man (& let my wife do most the hard thinking in the house!), what channel will this be on? Also, I just got the twins yesterday. Anyone know a good review on them, Youtube or otherwise?

    I think like they say on the podcast, that's gonna end up being the Botcon question everyone asks. ;)

    Whoa, slow down there, Sherlock. :p  "Five Servos of Doom" is the name of a Metallikato cyber-ninja technique, as performed by Prowl in "The Elite Guard"; chances are this episode will be the ninja-themed episode we've heard so much about.

    Some good news and something for me to look forward after so much, just not my thing. Should be fun to see how Predicons Rising works out. I'm sad to see the series end but gosh if I'm as geek happy as you can get at the prospect of Predicons.

    I can't wait. I don't have CN, but my aunt does and I'm suppose to go up there that day. But I doubt I will get to see all of it. 7 in the morning is too early to be there.

    It's also presumably a reference to wrestler Bret Hart's "Five Moves of Doom" finishing technique.

    (I don't know why I know that!)

    "Five Servos of Doom" has already been established as a Metallikato technique-- mentioned by Jazz after Prowl took out a bunch of police bots in "The Elite Guard".
