That's the difference Smokescreen learnt humility, Starscream didn't

Smokescreen very much learn it.

Another thing: when he had the chance to become leader, Starscream gleefully tried to off Megatron by removing the Dark Energon from his chest, while Smokescreen chose to reject the Matrix in Optimus' chest and using the Forge to bring him back.

Their designs even parallel somewhat, Starscream tall and skinny, Smoke is 'short' and bulky, their helmets are both silver with a red part in the center.

Watching reviews of Transfomers GO! (The Japanese follow up to Prime) and I REALLY hope this doesn't cross to the west. Beside the cartoon being assinine. The figures are... lame. Very Power Rangers Esque. Power Linking is back (Only this time its in groups of three). And some of the figures give off a very... Super Sentai feel to them. Hadr to explain... but bright, primary color. Alt modes who are very stylized... It's hard to explain but Look at this guy and tell me he wouldn't look right at home in some of the modern Super Sentai / Power Rangers series??

It also reminds me a lot of Armada in its design.

[up] Look at his three individual members when they AREN'T merged and that impression will pass.

Meet:

  1. Obese Shark Sub who transforms into A pair of boots with a torso growing out of them.
  2. Gigantic Lion Head attached to tiny body covered in weapons who becomes ...Another Giant Lion head with tiny limbs...
  3. Mega Ultra Chicken who transforms into... The only decent individual robot mode of the entire set!

And to be fair, I don't hate the combiner form (Though the individual robots in their solo forms are almost laughably bad)... It just feels very... Super Sentai (Admitedly more articulate than Super Sentai toys has Bandai has yet to discover the secret of elbows, but I'm talking more aesthetics).

[up] so first has a half decent alt, but shit robot, the second just got screwed over completely just to be a giant lions head, and that last got a decent robot mode, in exchange for being a fat robo-chicken.

Heh, no one can say that the transformers aren't Hot-Blooded. The only thing they're missing to be Super Robots is a human pilot.

I'm stuck in a huge make it or break it decision. I can't decide to either keep watching the finale or watch The new Legend of Korra and Wander episodes.

So we end at page 178. A shame more people did not discover this series while it was ongoing, yet so much dreg is more well-known. Oh well, it was good posting with you all here. Until the next TF series, Tropers, transform and rise up!

I'm sure we can get to 179, as we can still use this page for information on the upcoming new series we have little info about right now.

I recently got Shockwave and can't tell you how awesome he is. Visually just spot on with the character model and the tank mode is so badass and mean looking. DOTM Shockwave was okay, but something about this guy makes him feel larger and more powerful.

In a way I'm glad, I felt like Transformers Prime tried a little hard to be dark at times. Let's bring on a Prime that is willing to party!

I've only really written one fanfic... but you can find it here http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8476612/1/After-the-Fall
