When the announcement came for the roll out of Machinima‘s Transformers: Combiner Wars, one the first questions asked by the fans was whether it will be available internationally. It’s a fair question since the announcement stated that go90 is the platform of choice for the series. go90 is a United States only streaming service available on both Android and iOS. If an international user got the chance to access the app, he or she will be greeted with the message “Sorry! Go90 is only available in the US right now. So sadz, we know” (Seriously, not kidding. That’s the message. Don’t believe us? Check out 2005 Boards Member Murasame’s post).
But, have no fear fellow Transformers fans! Transformers: Combiner Wars showrunners Eric Calderon, George Krstic and F. J. Desanto quickly came to the rescue:
When Twitter user Joe Schmoe asked “Is there a way that fans outside the USA can watch it?“, Mr. George Krstic answered “From what I understand, yes“.
Putting the cherry on top of the ice cream was Mr. Eric Calderon who confirmed the statement by adding “The international roll-out will be announced a bit later on. And yes… I said roll-out! 🙂” and later “The international roll-out will be announced later this summer. And yep – I said roll-out! 🙂“
So there you have it, folks! Machinima’s Transformers: Combiner Wars Animated Series will be available Internationally and it will be announced later this summer. Are you looking forward to the series? Let us know what you think, on the thread associated with this news post.

Ha! I am somehow responsible for this news
Twitter user Joe Schmoe, otherwise known as 'me'.
I honestly never thought they'd reply but glad they did. I'd imagine they'll release on DVD/blu ray eventually too as one of them 'liked' my tweet about potentially buying it on blu ray.

So tired of all these loser start ups making random video apps and shit. Just release it on fucking YouTube and be done with it! Bravest Warriors 101
Just like there's no reason Tidal, Spotify, AND Apple Music all need to exist. Just play nice and decide who's going to live or die, kids.

The most important one being "Where else can I watch this?".

Hm…it'll probably end up on the Madman app in Australia. If it does, I'm okay with that.

Or it could also be coming to Netflix…you know, like many other shows are doing (Daredevil, the new Voltron show to name a pair of them). In fact, I think it's highly likely that it'll be coming to Netflix (at least outside of the U.S).

It wasn't just the "roll out" references that have made me cringe; the stilted, almost fake pictures of the creators "playing" with TF toys sent to them by Hasbro had already done that.
Anyway, Android is not only available for phones and tablets. It is available on PCs, TV's, consoles (like the Nvidia Shield TV) and there are emulators and even dual boot Andoid OS's for PC. I am wting this post on my old , Andoid-based "Ouya" console, on my TV.
Anyway, as soon as this comes out, it will almost certainly be out on Youtube and definitely on the legally-grey areas of teh internets, such as torrent sites and icefilms or whatnot. Not that this site, nor myself encourages this sort of thing, but I suspect you won't need Andoid to view it.
BTW, I am not waiting til' summer. That's why people want international streaming; to watch it AT THE SAME TIME as eveyone else. Why do you think Netflix is hell-bent on getting their own content (at least the new stuff) out everywhere, at the same time?

Yeah, it's good news and all, but still, the amount of times he had to say "roll out". Also how is it coming internationally? Another streaming app? Netflix?

Thank goodness! I have been drooling to see this. I think they can actually do a fantastic job. We shall see. I live in Canada so this is very welcomed news.

Ok, so then that means that anyone who owns a Microsoft Surface Pro 4 or a smart TV are SOL? I definitely don't want to watch this series on my 4 inch IPhone. Is there no website that shows these programs? I only found links to their app, but it won't work on my large tablet. What happened to Microsoft's claim of all apps working on Windows 10, if it requires the app makers changing anything, it makes the claim a lie. If the past is any indication of things to come, this app will never come to the Windows Store. It really sucks. Is there no plan on this show coming to cable or satellite?

Well, I am pleased there will be another TF show on the way, and curious about it too. Keeping an eye on this.

Oh thank you.

Not just me who cringed so hard they got whiplash, then?

For some reason that made me think of this:
Slingshot
Wow. The guy just had to reference the he said "roll out" multiple times. Is he trying to get us to be supportive? "Transform and Roll Out" is one of the most overused terms in the fandom, along with "One Shall Stand, One Shall Fall".
