Description
You nknow what I love? Transformers Animated. To me it's easily the best Transformers series ever (at least for the Decepticon Autobot stuff). Prime is too slow and boring usually, Armada is wonky as hell through the first half, Energon is lazy as crap, and the original cartoon is just...well flat-out "What?" a lot of the time. But Animated? Had the best most coherent plot, wasn't embarrassingly serious, and just had actual life to it it felt like.And along with that it provided really interesting ideas, one of which being Sari Sumdac. I was thankful when Season 3 came around and revealed that she herself was actually a Transformer. I mean it was about damn time we got a human one. Now had Season 4 happened (and also throughout a majority of Season 3), Sari would've been out of the spotlight a lot of the time since there's no toy to sell of her and Hasbro would be damned if they were going to advertise a human Transformer toy over vehicle ones (not even contemplating how that type of toy would work to begin with).
Personally I always thought that Sari would have to do with Primus and everything given that she essentially had the Key of Vector Sigma whch she uses on herself and it was given to her by the Allspark. But I now realize that likely would never have been the case since the creators of the show wanted to keep Primus and Unicron and all of the "god" stuff out of focus for once. Either way...we needed Season 4. Need some closure! GIMME ANSWERS!!!

Just asking, your thoughts on Cybertron and Beast Wars.

I'd say Beast Wars is the best Transformers series ever other than possibly Animated. Cybertron however...is pretty dull to me. The 3D's nowhere near as good as Beast Wars or Beast Machines visually and the plot's just there to give the characters something to do. Nothing all THAT interesting happens until the ending.
Worst however would have to be Energon.

Fantastic, good that were on the same page about Beast Wars.(and Animated)
I myself would say Cybertron is a guilty pleasure for me, but I wouldn't call it great.
(and the toys were pretty great)
And here is another question.
Have you played the War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron games, if so thoughts?
Oh yeah, everybody can agree on that last statement.

Sadly, no, I haven't played those games since I have no system that they're on (my brother destroyed the PS3 so the only thing of the previous generation that we have left is the Wii. Have no modern systems). From what I've seen though they're a pretty awesome retread of the old War Within type stuff. A bit disappointed though (even if I expected it) that they kinda moved away from keeping it and the Prime/Robots in Disguise series as part of the same universe (though Prime was never as good as those games to begin with to me).

In my opinion I consider them both completely different series.
Even do it has some similarities(Trypticon being the Ship of the decepticons),
it has lots of things that are different that one would ask how in the hell there similar.
Examples:
Where did the ark and the whole autobot army go?
Which brings to mind what happened to the Decepticons?(well the unique ones like Brawl or Rumble)
How did Starscream get on to earth, and was not shot dead on sight by the decepticons?
And the list goes on. So really I never put them together if you ask me.
I just consider them separate...If ya wonder about the Starscream question, just ask me.

Well I'd always heard that they were part of the same universe as Hasbro listed them all as the Aligned continuity, which always had me asking questions as to how they were part of the same timeline. Only further confusing things with Grimlock being a Decepticon initially in Robots in Disguise. Really hope they have Unicron in the games at some point, especially with how classic they make the characters look in those.
Oh, on the topic of Energon, even though it is crap, I did make a video about it: www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTRtDm…
And one for its previous series, Armada (no matter the thoughts on that series it's pretty damn hard to find a better Optimus vs. Megatron/Galvatron fight than the final one of that series): www.youtube.com/watch?v=QuLlIH…

Yeah, like I said it's batter to leave those two as there own timelines.(specially if you don't want a headache)
And I sadly see the games might have gotten the Animated problem,
so I don't see Unicron appearing anytime soon.(it's 2015 and the last one was in 2012)
And to Energon well I only watched 5 episodes, so really negativity from me is just from what I heard about it.
And on Armada, well I never watched it so now commentary on my part.(but great animation)
And after seeing that final battle:
1. Okay yes it was epic.
2. So that's what the horns for Megatron are for!

Eh, you never know. Honestly I wasn't expecting a second game after War for Cybertron, but thank god we got to see things like Metroplex and stuff ^_~
And if you liked Cybertron at all, you'd probably love at least parts of Armada. It's what started that "Unicron Trilogy" (which Cybertron wasn't meant to be, but they forced it to be when it was brought to the US) and is easily the best of that era. Starscream's sorta Beast Wars' Dinobot in it
I really wish we had proper live action movies that were actually good instead of embarrassing.

Only Primus knows what Hasbro will do. Lets hope its good...
Well that's interesting to know about Cybertron.
And well even if I didn't watch it, I did know some points like Starscream.
Not like I gave a clue I'll admit, woops.
In my own opinion I rather hope that Hasbro stopped making the movies.
The live action ruined my appetite for more movies.
Plus let us remind ourselves why we don't have no more animated,
give a big fucking THANKS to the movies for that unfortunate moment for us fans.

The part that made me real mad was finding out about the plans for Season 4. Sari living with Bulkhead on Cybertron to learn more about their culture, Megatron getting his new form (THAT THEY MADE A TOY OF but will never release), Optimus getting the Power Master armor, Sentinel becoming the new Magnus after Ultra Magnus dies from Shockwaves' injuries, Arcee and Cliffjumper joining the Earth autobots, Prowl's ghost, and all those other things.
If there is one Transformers show I ever want them to continue again it's that one. Though if they did that Hasbro would probably get an entirely new team that'd mess everything up.

Oh so MUCH greatness, all easily gone to Oblivion.
Which it really puzzles me, because and I quote
" The success of the cartoon and the toy line,
the largely positive fan feedback in particular,
surprised Hasbro. "
Oh if Hasbro were to bring it back it would be a miracle
from the Primus himself, and really is not like they would be that
stupid or suicidal to do that kind crap...Let me rephrase that.
The team who made Animated what it was wouldn't be stupid enough
to let Hasbro do that.

Tell me about it. I was pinning so hard for Season 4 that I was just about ready to bomb Hasbro when I found out it'd been cancelled!
Anywho, Primus and Unicron don't exist in TFA, though the Allspark Almanac does state that the Decepticons wanted to bring Cybertron to life, sort of like Primus is Cybertron in some continuations. My theory is that Sari was a Decepticon experiment that was meant to help Megatron come back to life. The thing is, there's nothing that hints that anybot or con knew where Megs was, so there's a massive hole in my theory.

warahi In reply to Mazamba [2015-04-21 06:51:47 +0000 UTC]
Actually Primus and Unicron are implied to possibly exist in the Malgus (Animated) universe in the Almanacs, they just don't have anything to do with the show is all (not to mention Cyclonus talks about some apocalyptic future that he's apparently from). Vector Sigma also exists on some other planet than Cybertron apparently.
As for Sari I'm kind of at a loss. I was pretty sure I had it pinned back when the show ended thinking she'd lead into Primus and the origins of the Transformers and all that with how she seemed to be gifted by it. But after hearing about the creators' thoughts that's clearly not the case. Then I thought maybe it'd be a step towards evolving Transformers and Cybertronians into one species or make Cybertronians more relatable to humans and organic creatures like how Beast Machines was pushing things in that direction.
As it is though, there's sadly just not enough information. We still don't have the first clue as to how her Protoform even got into Sumdac Tower in the first place.

Transformers Animated is my absolute favourite as well, and I TOTALLY agree with you about needing a Season 4 because darn it I need more TFA in my life.

Well the shirt's getting sucked into the underside of the armor since that doesn't seem to disappear when she transforms. Her leggings I believe are getting sucked upwards to form her underside in robot-mode.
I think ^_^
