Thankies I've been working on more expressive images recently...seeing as all my old stuff was the same old cocky pose...mainly hands on hips, a few with him doing a thinking pose with a hand at his lips....and every one either from the front of 3/4, so recently, when I sketch, I'm trying to mix it up a bit ^_^

I would think he'd feel alone anyway, even if he "fit in" with the Autobots. They'd probably accept him slowly, but he'd never feel like he was truly one of them. And like it or no, I still reckon he secretly misses Breakdown's company.

I'd think that too. Even with the Autobots and as much as they will try to include him, he'll still always be that 'outcast' because there will still always be that slight distrust from most, if not all the members. There will never be another Breakdown for him and his attitude kinda makes it hard for him to make friends anyway seeing as he is very naturally vain.

I think one of the problems is he did kinda suddenly choose to switch sides right as they won, so they all know if a load of shit went down and there was a new enemy, he'd up and bail as he did before. I can see them accepting him, but trusting him on the same very close family level the rest of them have...not so much.

Yeah pretty much, he did just jump sides Could've made it look at least a little like he wanted to do it ages ago. Have you heard about the new series they're putting together for 2015? Apparently it's a continuation of Prime, but it looks like it's in a style like TF Animated but better and Bumblebee is the leader XD

Of course I have! It's probably going to be kinda unrelated, much like Rescue Bots is, only Bumblebee is the leader in it. So there may be vague-ish cameos, but I doubt we'll get all the cast we know and love And the style pic they showed...lol, I was like "Hey...that's just like TFP, Animated and Rescue Bots Bumblebee were shoved in a blender!"

Pretty much XD It does boast a 'whole new set of characters' though, which I'd like to see. Hmm, what overly done Autobots can we pick out the bag this time?! Probably Ironhide, wouldn't be surprised if Ratchet is still in it seeing as Hasbro seem to think hes their only medic, Wheeljack maybe... but if there is a ninja bot Prowl I am going to KICK SOME ASS because I hated that version of Prowl >< Oh and Jazz might make an appearance, probably will be killed off in the first few minutes though.

Still, I'm holding my comments until I at least see a teaser >w> It could be very good, heck I expected Prime to be bad once I learnt that Bulkhead was in it and I fragging hated his guts in Animated. I don't like the whole 'He's strong thus he must be stupid' stereotype a lot of shows go for.

I thought Prime was gonna suck because there were 3 kid characters shoved in...and they didn't bother me at all when I watched the first couple eps.

As for Animated, I liked that, and I had no quips with Prowl, though, I do like him equally as much as other versions of Prowl...Prowl is generally cool to me XD I'm half expecting all the generic ones we've seen a bunch before, ESPECIALLY ones that have been in the movies They originally were trying to tie this closer to the movies and it only recently was stated to be a sequel to Prime afterall.

I'll watch it. I watch the shitty movies don't I? It's giant frigging robots...what more can a transformers fan want? Even if it turns out shit (thanks Michael Bay) the visuals are still pretty awesome

I thought Prime would suck because Prime had no nose XD And yeah I saw the humans and felt like I was being cheated again and expected the boy to have the love interest and family unit blah blah blah but it surprised me.

I didn't like Animated It felt... cheesy to me. Bulkhead was stereotypically stupid, Bumblebee annoyed me, Prowl being a ninja has never set well with me because there are some characters I feel cannot be changed. I felt wrong when I realised who the reason Ironhide was, suddenly the newb Autobot I knew as Ironhide couldn't be him anymore because that WASN'T the real Ironhide. I think the one big thing that got me with Animated was the fact that Ratchet was pretty much made redundant thanks to Saris key. And the whole 'Oh Saris a robot!' stuff felt redundant to me.

I appreciate that it brought Transformers back to life metaphorically speaking, but it wasn't my cup of tea, just like I know Energon and RID aren't others cups of tea :3

I shall also watch it XD The whole series, like I did Animated. Can't have an opinion after one or two episodes, gotta see the whole thing otherwise I'd just find the Transformers movies online and cut out all the human centric bits. Would be left with a Youtube video sized movie if I did that XD

Hey, I watch Rescue Bots which is aimed at toddlers and I like it, so I'm sure I can dig a new show. And we all know it can't be as bad as some of the older shows (I'm looking at you Masterforce!)

Animated was what got me vaguely interested in transformers, so I ain't gonna dis. There are some things I didn't like (I agree about some of the things you've said, such as Ratchet being redundant and Bulkhead being just big and dumb), but it and my sister were what pulled me to become the obsessive TFP fan I am nowadays

I gotta say, to me, Energon was friggin HILARIOUS! Who can forget such classy lines like "Don't think that because you're over 1000ft tall, I won't still take you on Optimus" My least favorite ones so far have been Masterforce and Cybertron...they're both long and boring. Masterforce has it's moments, but at the end of the day...it's about humans (Plus I remember an episode where a little girl's puppy was killed and the heroes merely said "We'll get you a new one" O_O)

I've been watching a bit of Rescue Bots but mostly been distracted by rewatching Prime XD I need to stop watching Faster, Stronger. But Ratchet on drugs is funny to watch XD And that line "Hows it humming" just gets me every time.

I think we can both agree that Masterforce was just... bad. Had more human shit in it than the Bay Movies.

Energon got me into Transformers XD I went backwards. Energon, Cybertron of which I liked solely for the mass amount of accents in the series >w<, G1, Masterforce then Armada. Then RID. Sideburn master race XD I agree that Cybertron was pretty boring, it did feel dragged out in some segments, like why did Red Alert and Hotshot have to be on the speed planet for so long? That could've been wrapped up in a few eps but instead it was dragged on for several.

...I should really get around to watching Beast Wars.

Same here for Beast Wars XP I've seen maybe 5mins recently as a reference for the TFP project I'm on cause the example I was given was a scene from it, but we're still technically on RID...Armada next in line I'd guess as I think we have that on DVD

We've also seen a bit of the new anime one, Transformers Go! That's pretty stu-ish and the sameish for both Samurai and Shinobi, seeing as they seem to follow the same plot with differing characters...

I ordered a Japanese DVD of Prime a couple days ago...it has Knocks on the cover but only 2 episodes...funnily enough, it is TMI and Stronger, Faster but I mainly got it for the cover and to hear "MEDIC KNOCK OUT!" and such hahaha (The site put it as out of stock after I ordered, so I hafta wait and see what happens worst case is a refund )

Commander5AM In reply to doomiscool [2014-03-28 15:13:56 +0000 UTC]

Is that Japanese Prime DVD the best of Knockout one? XD I know there is a best of Bumblebee one so I wouldn't be surprised if he had one too. And I can't say anything, I paid an extra £2 on an RID DVD set because Sideburn was on the front X3

Sorry I've taken so long to reply, I've had a couple early mornings with exhausting days I have to be over at my carees house at 8:30am to help her 'refuel' her cat as I've dubbed it XD One of her cats needs to have fluids injected into him via a drip every day now so I've been assisting but I find it funny because he gets a lot more active once he's had them, so I said how its like fueling a car X3.

I've been distracting myself with trying to figure out how I'm going to sort my bedroom out. I'm expecting at least 8 new Transformers to my team and I have no space for them, so I've been trying to make space but every time I clear an area up my cats jump all over it and everything goes everywhere -.-;

doomiscool In reply to Commander5AM [2014-03-28 16:50:06 +0000 UTC]

Nah, the Japanese DVD is just volume 11, but generally, they put a character on the front who features in the episodes...If it was the best of Knock Out, I'd hope Speed Metal would be on there as one of them XD

No worries, I've been working anyway towards my deadline, so I'm not all that concerned if you haven't got time to reply Our cat was having a drip every month or so for a while before she died, and I can understand what you mean, she always perked up immensely when we got it done ^_^

Commander5AM In reply to doomiscool [2014-03-28 20:08:02 +0000 UTC]

True true XD I hope they do a DVD set for all of them, I mean come on they made Best of Bumblebee, why can't we have a Best of Ratchet and Best of Knockout?

I just need a bit of time to get used to the new schedule ^^' My 5ish day a week thing just became 7 days without fail because she can't do the drip on her own. He's got Chronic Kidney Failure and some other things, I find it kinda upsetting that she has to go through all this with this cat she's only had him for a week. She was told that she was adopting a 10 year old black cat. Turns out she's been dumped with an old black cat obviously older than 10 who is blind, deaf and has kidney failure and arthritis. He's such a happy boy though, purrs the moment he's picked up.

I'd be sold at the "Knock Out" part I'm too obsessed haha! If they did "best of" sets, I'd probs get Breakdown and possibly Dreadwing too...thems me three favourite cons, and Ratchet would be tempting too...he is the best Autobot haha XD

Same for my old cat...she had arthritis and dodgy kidneys, it's something a lot of cats get above the age of 12 or so.

Can't say I wouldn't be the same XD "Best of Kn-" "BOUGHT" would be my reaction X3 But it probably won't happen because he isn't Prime or Bumblebee =.=; I don't like how they keep putting the limelight on Prime and Bumbles and leave everyone else in the dark. And yes, Ratchet is best Autobot, followed by Bulkhead in the Primeverse >w<

Yeah I know. She's been quite lucky with her 14 year old cat Crystal, she's going to the doc tomorrow to have her teeth removed because they're rotten but other than that she's in perfect health, well aside from being obease but she's been overweight since she was abandoned on Barbaras doorstep. Never found out who owned her, someone used to post sachets of food through her letterbox to feed her but nobody ever owned up to owning her.
