That was the only copy I could find and the pilot didn’t even have it.
The new Transformers: Robots In Disguise (not to be confused with the 2001 series adapting Japan’s Transformers: Car Robots) was previewed on Cartoon Network last weekend. I was not able to see it and on-demand only has the first episode. Finally I got tired of waiting and looked for part 2 online.
The new series (continuing off Transformers Prime: Beast Hunters, which I sadly only saw a few episodes although I’ve seen all of the regular show) is minus Megatron and appears to be Optimus lite (although he’s still in there) with the leadership role now in Bumblebee’s hands in a way that made a lot more sense than how IDW did it. It’s back on Cartoon Network (good luck, RID 2015, and heaven forbid a girl likes the show, right Young Justice?) while Rescue Bots remains on Discovery Family (formerly The Hub) and I have to wonder if they’re still considered the same continuity. Optimus was supposed to have died according to this show but that show has Optimus popping up and becoming a triple-changer with a new dinosaur mode joining his truck mode.
So how does the show compare to its predecessor and (possibly former) counterpart? Quite well, actually.
You’d go starfighter racing if you could.

While I am STILL trying to see Pacific Rim, Legendary has announced a new comic set in the movie’s world. Comics Alliance‘s Matt Wilson has the details.
Swoop needs something for that heartburn.

I guess they made up after Kickassia.
Cold is draining me today and I’m hoping I can still make that stream on Saturday. So all I have is filler today, but I try to make it GOOD filler. For example, Doug Walker as the Nostalgia Critic looking at originality in film, or the lack thereof. WARNING: Contains swearing.
Alfin was so bored she made a giant mural of Joe.
