I just saw that a few moments ago.   Freaking adorable and really nicely animated.

 

Transformers One Takara SS Megatron Animated PV

 

Wow that was cool for using the SS molds

 

At mods, can this be merged? 'til all are one!

 

Well, that was extremely well done!

 

The animation and camera work is so clean! The way they move have a sense of weight to them and makes them feel so alive. And they portrayed Optimus and Megs friendship really well, this might be one of my favourite TF stop motion ever

 

Yes the weight of the movements somehow felt superior to some theatrical stop-motion films I've seen. Insanely good job from whoever directed this ahahahha

 

God it would be so cool to get an actual stop-motion Transformers series. This is just so well done, especially seeing the Prime figure interact with the Roomba.

 

I was saying that in another thread! It would be an even cooler way to promote toys by animating a show with the toys. It doesn't have to be 100% stop motion, it can use CG to aid it. The stop motion puppets don't have to be exactly the toys themselves. They could be MP level puppets for better animation and what not.

 

It's pretty impressive, seems both the stop motion animator and director worked on the elusive samurai

 

Spoiler

D-16 sure loves his decals.

 

Cute. Honestly these stop motion films (since Siege promotions started) have really been a treat.

 

I really like the angles during the transformation, must've been a logistical nightmare to film and edit that though.

 

Give our poor boys some articulating handss ffs

 

welp guess im buying tf one megs and optimus now.

 

This was a fun watch! I’d love a behind-the-scenes follow-up because that was some amazing camera work, especially with Optimus jumping off the table and transforming.


Also, I’m gonna need that soundtrack on iTunes or something. Like, now.

 

I love that subtle gag of the Roomba having a Unicron sticker

 

That was, without exaggeration, the single most polished, gorgeous, mind-blowing stop motion made from existing toys I have ever seen in my life, and it's not even close. I simply can't phathom how impossibly complex that would've been to film. I legit didn't think this was possible to accomplish at this quality without a Hollywood budget and custom puppets. That was a freaking masterpiece.
