Machinima have added a trailer for their Power of the Primes web animation series. The series, which is set to be the concluding part of the Prime Wars trilogy, picks up where Titans Return left off and is set to feature a desperate race to find the requiem blaster. The trailer features several scenes in a mechanical jungle that seems to be taken straight out of the Megaman games, and gives us our first look at the Dinobots in action in this series – the first time all five have been united in animation since 1986 – and the first time ever they have been united in the combiner sense ever! Yes, we get to see a bit of Volcanicus in action, as well as some scenes of him squaring off with Predaking. The trailer is topped off by our first impression of the new, Ron Perlman voiced Optimus Primal, and we’re happy to report that Ron Perlman’s voice is not too far removed from Gary Chalk’s, although the delivery is a bit stiff.
The series is premiering on May 1st, and will be going out on Go90 for those in the US. Unfortunately, fans in the rest of the world are once again having to make do with Tumblr, a platform not really optimized for enjoying a web animated series.
Check out the trailer below:

Nothing disgusting about it.

He didn't really, he just said that he hasn't heard of anyone liking the films and yet more of them get made because they make money. This isn't the first Transformers show Mark has been a part of he was in Rescue Bots.
JennAvenger
With all the voice talents still doesn't change the fact that this is a Shitty show with shitty choppy animation and storylines!
Thundermania
You just implied that kylo ren is equal to the raw badassery that is Overlord's lips APOLOGIZE!
Angry Camaro
Mark Hamill, the guy who bashed the live action series in public who probably has never seen a single clip from the films.
Chaos Muffin
Spoiler:
Overlord fights Megatronus (Mark Hamill) at the end, except Megatronus was\'nt really there. He was matrix projecting himself the whole time, then dies!

I only like OP 17 and 18 so I can make jokes about Shockwave being a furry , that alone makes "The Falling" worth reading

Actually the planet I live on is a ball of iron.
Thundermania
My thoughts exactly.
Thundermania
Yes, I'm talking about the bizarre and gross organic Cybertron from Beast Machines.

The Last Jedi, anyone? XD
Neko-bot77
Should have stayed with the toy name…
Anyways, can't wait to see more of Overlord's dance moves!
RodimusSupreme
Agreed. Rodicron would've made more sense, and it's still a dumb name!
Jerrimus
Rodimus Cron? Tha fuck
SHIELD Agent 47
Oh wow, that's an amazing connection.

There's always so much promise, but then you watch it and wished you hadn't.
The way Optimus was killed off was just ridiculous. Like it was a joke to kill him off just so there could be Optimus Primal. A prime going out like a vehicon in TF Prime.
So Megatronus is only there to revive Unicron. OOOOOHHHH Requiem Blaster!!!!
They tease and under-deliver.
BB Shockwave
I did, hence I agree with him! Seriously, what a giant mess. It reads like a bad fanfic. Barber took the Dreamwave joke of "Shockwave Did It" and thought it would be funny to make him responsible for the universe as we know it. It was clever, yes, but it was absolutely pointless and stupid.
The rest you are right about, though MTMTE and Lost Light started to become stale after the first few volumes, unfortunately. The two Wreckers specials are still awesome. We need Nick Roche to write more comics, dammit…
Kidding? People even made fun of it how Animated Optimus dies in the third episode already. Turning grey and all that. For like, a minute, then gets revived by Sari's key. It was a hilarious tongue-in-cheek joke about the frequent deaths of Primes. People were joking how Animated Prime is so much of an Optimus, he could not wait until the end of the series to die, had to do it 3 episodes in.
Nemesis Otaku
Hm. That would make more sense. Maximo comes off as a trickster to me, so it would make more sense for Mark to play Leige. Good thinking!
SPLIT LIP
"Disgusting organic."
You realise your own planet is "disgusting organic" right?

Hamill, IMO, would have been better suited to a Leigo Maximo and Perlman used for Megatronus. Bad casting choice and voice direction.
