Ektris Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 (Continuing from the last topic, then...) I'm still on the fence about whether I want to get sucked into Prime's toyline. The show I'm already in love with for its mythos. The toyline, though... While I did collect all the WfC guys and the Prime toys would help complement them - and with Highmoon really trying to make it clear they're all connected with Fall of Cybertron now having them even closer to Prime appearances (Cliffjumper's new head anybody?) - I just dunno. They're a little too Animated-like for my liking as figures. Guess I'll just give it time so I can watch some actual reviews and not just stare at pictures. ~|ET|~ Quote E-T... Phone home.

DOTM Shockwave Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 The Transformers: Prime figures (especially the Legion/Commander figures) look awesome. After DOTM runs its course, Prime will get my full attention.

Studs Not On Top Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) A few months ago, I found WFC Bumblebee at a yard sale, loose, without the gun. He was $1.00. What are your best deals?

Zipper Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 I got back into TFs a few months ago during BZP's downtime. They're really advanced from what I remembered during the Energon years. Also, the Prime figures look gorgeous. It's like the Animated line, but focusing more on streamlined design as opposed to cartoon proportions.

Ultra Hamster Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 I'm really loving Transformers Prime! After seeing the season finale I can safely say that this is the best transformers cartoon since Beast wars. The toyline also looks cool I'll probably be buying Starscream and the Optimus Megatron 2-pack.

Inferna Firesword Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Transformers: Prime is officially my favorite Transformers cartoon ever. The character's appearances are just gorgous, and Starscream's voice ... *shudders in fangirlish happiness* Favorite Autobot: Arcee (all hail Arcee, the future Prime!)Favorite Decepticon: StarscreamFavorite Human: Tie between Raf, Miko, and Silas. (Since, to be honest, Miko had precisely the same reaction I would to discovering them ... silence as you take it all in, then squeals of enthusiasm. ) Quote Reborn: a new epic by Inferna Firesword Now recruiting for the Matoran Militia!

Stryker055 Posted October 15, 2011 Author Share Posted October 15, 2011 As my sig and av suggest, I'm rather obsessed with Soundwave. I was starting to lose interest in him towards the end because he didn't do anything, but then he went and did something totally awesome in the finale, and I love him again.

I was starting to lose interest in him towards the end because he didn't do anything, but then he went and did something totally awesome in the finale, and I love him again.Agreed, maybe this is one of the reasons Starscream didn't leave Megatron to die. After years of serving together he probably knew about Soundwave's skills and figured that abandoning Megatron would end in pain. Soundwave barely moved, the most movement I saw was him stepping on her face.

Elmara: Spirit Of Fire Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 My favorite series, by far, is Beast Wars. I am practically in love with BW Megatron. I always liked Optimus Primal, too. As for Fall of Cybertron, I cannot freakin' wait for that game, but I need a new XBox (Mine red-ringed). I have to shy away from Transformers fansites, though, cause Teletoon wouldn't air the season finale of TF Prime until last week, so I'm only on part 1. Sometimes, it kills to be Canadian.

Allanon Loke Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 (edited) I got into Transformers sometime last year, and I love it. I really can't remember what triggered by desire to watch Transformers. I had never even heard of them until last year. My favorite continuities would have to be Transformers Animated and Transformers Prime. I'm practically climbing the walls (in a completely non-literal sense) waiting for the season finale to get online. And I'm trying to resist reading the episode summary on tfwiki. As my sig and av suggest, I'm rather obsessed with Soundwave. I was starting to lose interest in him towards the end because he didn't do anything, but then he went and did something totally awesome in the finale, and I love him again.*silent screams* I-can't-wait-to-watch-this! My favorite Autobot is Prowl (both the one from G1 and Animated), and my favorite Decepticon is Soundwave. I hated the new trilogy movies though. Dark of the Moon was the best because it contained more conspiracy, betrayal, and Transformers appearances than the last two. The first one was practically a third of the way in before the Transformers revealed themselves. Bleh. And Soundwave had a voice of his own. Ruination!

Harvali Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 For those who saw One shall Rise part 3Any theories on Optimus Prime's/Orion Pax's fate? My theory is that the Cortical Psychic Patch might be used to transfer memories of the Autobots into Orion. The information they got on uploading data into Autobot minds from T.M.I. might help in this. Any other ideas?

An interesting thoery someone from a TF fansite brought up suggested that Optimus keep his memory lost, and he has to re-learn everything and try to live up to the great leader he once was. Once he figure's out Megatron's deception, anyway, which I hope lasts at least a few episodes. Quote Check out Brown Box Reviews, where I review toys... and that's about it!

kalhiki Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 One Shal Rise Part 3 stuff:Personally, I think they're going to use the Key to Vector Sigma to get Prime's memory back (y'know, since it's a database of Cybertron's history and whatnot).Also, they pretty much summed up Exodus in Part 3. At least they're trying to keep things consistent.Loving the Prime toys. Can't wait to get my hands on them. I'm honestly shocked how they managed to pull off the designs.

Ektris Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 How can you be shocked by anything after how they pulled off the Animated line? If anything, I'm just confused by the line... I don't see why there has to be a distinction bewteen "First Edition" and the later, regular releases. Cliffjumper even has two molds just for that - and I can't decide which I like more haha. I hope the others don't end up having the same issue, because some of the "First Edition" ones still look pretty good. And I'd rather not buy duplicates of a character when there's not much need to. ~|ET|~ Quote E-T... Phone home. "He walks among us, but he is not one of us."

Valyou Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I got into TF for some unknown reason during BZP's downtime.

Toa of Ice - 1987 Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I mostly like the G1 and Cybertron Energon cartoons. But i really HATE a annoying repeated thing in Transformers: Robots In Disguise and in any other series that does it: calling out a attack name as they're attacking...especially when they doing a small kick attack and calls out " Omega Prime: Omega Kick *kicks enemy with his big foot.* " I mean Transformers aren't supposed to look like RPG(Role Playing Games) styled cartoons.

RID, Armada, Energon, and Cybertron were originally Car Robots, Micron Densetsu, Superlink, and Galaxy Force in Japan. I would highly recommend original shows like Beast Wars, Animated, and Prime. They're miles ahead of RID and the Unicron Trilogy in pretty much every way (though I still love the latter half of Armada).

I have thoroughly watched all Transformers Show but the ones i mentioned are the only ones that i favor more than the others. I don't necessarily care about graphics quality, i favor nostalgia(G1) storyline(cybertron series) and frequent intense battles and against hordes(terrorcons) and combiner abilities(energon) and importantly low number of annoying human kids.

Stryker055 Posted October 17, 2011 Author Share Posted October 17, 2011 I'm pretty sure Skyquake will stay dead, since the creators outright said dead guys stay dead.

I liked kicker a lot he wasn't afraid to face most robotic adversaries going as far as threatening alpha q and bashing him with a sword at point blank range.And i liked his angry temper instead of joking a lot or running off scared from of the big bots. And he was the polite one....but Sari Sumdac was the worse one and had bad habits. She's a protoform whos been raised on earth for like 12 years and she knows enough to explain to Prime how human reproduce.... which should be way incomprehensible for even a cybertronian to understand or learn. It was in the Transformers Animated episode Transform and Roll Out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
