Transformers Prime
 

Looks like there's gonna be a new Transformers animated series coming out in October. Not much is known about it except it'll be on The Hub (formerly Discovery Kids) channel along with a new G.I Joe series and My Little Pony. The only confirmed voice I've found is that Jeffrey Combs is voicing Ratchet.

There will be 26 eps in the first season and it's CG Animated.

Check out the first promo image for The hub. :lol:

Is the other show of the transformers finished (transformers animated)? I would have like to see a 4th season, it was kinda interesting.

Yeah. Transformers Animated was cancelled in America but it's currently airing in Japan and I think they're making a new season for it...but only in Japan.

Damn... :teek:

And the irony is, despite the overly-anime freindly influences, there's likely a good chance Japan will probably f*ck it up all over again

Do'h, that sucks. :(

It's too bad we couldn't get a dub of the new season with our original TFA guys.. :( I loved the cast.

I heard about this. Never seen that promo pic though.

CG huh? Sounds good to me. Beast Wars was in CG and it was great. I know CG isnt what makes shows good just saying with CG today it should look pretty cool.

I really liked "Animated" and would have liked a few more episodes (I think the the final season was cut short so the ending was kinda rushed) but at least it had a proper ending.

Im looking forward to this new one, plus new toys :D

if the CGI is as good as the new game, I'm all for it

Fixed that for you.

the CGI from beasts wars are inferior to war for cybertron

Yeah, but...that's a game.

A game directed at an older audience, no less.

the same quality from that game can easily be replicated to television

The shows budget wouldn't be that high, nor would most people tune in to watch a dirty looking cartoon.

If its made for kids, its more apt to have brighter colors, rather than have bots caked in grime, dirt and rust.

The forum that I am heavily involved with gets info from Hasbro all of the time. We got an e-mail from Hasbro last night so I know 2 of the voice actors for the series.

Peter Cullen--Optimus Prime
Frank Welker--Megatron & Soundwave

That's just such BS it's not funny. I should just go and sell my DVDs if that's true. And screw recording the season 3 episodes to tape since I've still got them DVR-ed.

Well I think the confusion as to if there's new episodes deals with the fact that the opening sequence features characters not seen in the American version. I LOVE the Japanese version of the opening sequence. Im just confused about the mysterious cloaked figure... Plus... when did they go to Washington DC and Egypt? *lol*
