Episode 6: “Megatron is My Hero”
TransFanRHX
Cartoon Network doesn't even finance or produce the modern Peanuts shorts; they're only one of the many distributors of that French-animated cartoon. Where are you getting your claims from, because it's really hard to cite any of them as being remotely truthful? And that's not even getting into the ridiculous "hired from Tumblr" acquisitions…

Anyways, good episode with another status quo shake-up. I'm really loving how Cyberverse take advantage of being a closely serialized show, despite being 11-minute episodes (which similar cartoons tend to struggle with not overloading on episodic adventures).
"Slashimus Prime" is probably the funniest and horrific sights I've seen out of this interpretation of Prime.

Cartoon network is in trouble even with the actual Los Angeles animation guild mad that they've been hiring kids online for peanuts to save money, and the visual direction on those shows is telling.

I hope not because that means they jump on wtf train. The train never stops. You either have to jump off or on. Some people already on that train. *cough* Tramp *cough*

I dunno dude, it seems like the people working on this cartoon actually give a damn as a opposed to rid2015

…i haven’t seen any flash cartoons storyboarded by teenagers hired off tumblr: has the state of the industry plummeted that precipitously in the past two years?..
…i’m just comparing it to hasbro’s other recent productions before they pulled everything in-house with boulder media…
maurice
I love the seekers their so cool
BigRed
Are… Are you seriously implying this looks worse than the tweeting flash cartoons storyboarded by teenagers hired off tumblr? Because it isn't, literally the only cartoon with better direction than this going on right now is adult series on Netflix or ninja turtles.

…ugh; why is the direction sooooo bad?!..
…there are so many elements of a decent story in there which want to get out, but the voice direction, the animation direction, the production are so c-list it just makes me gnash my teeth!..was rescue bots really that much more expensive to produce than this in-house dross?..'cause this production isn't doing what it takes to hook a new generation on the franchise, certainly not at the level of its competitors…

Not a bad episode, Good dipiction of Shockwave and Rack n\' Ruin was a big surprise. I look forward to the next episode, hopefully they won\'t go too long without somewhere for Bee to plug into. His radio voice is the worst yet. I\'ve gotten used to it being his gimmick in most places at this point but in this it\'s execptionally awful, especially considering his real voice is pretty good imo. Still not digging Grimlock\'s voice. Hopefully when they eventually find him he\'s a little more like the brutish, feral Grimlock we all know and love. It probably wouldn\'t be as bad if the voice actor didn\'t ham it up so much, he sounds like he belongs in the British upper class in the 1800s.

This series is really growing on me I’ve enjoyed the way they’ve kept the story going by reliving a variety of different memories, and providing some pretty decent character interactions. Quite like this depiction of Shockwave too he’s no Corey Burton but he’s still pretty good. Also nice touch with Optimus in the fake memory loved the references.

Dailymotion is usually a good source for getting around restrictions, but don’t expect things to be in HD.
I knew I forgot something…
Deadend
Probably was. Nightmare was kind of the theme of the episode in general.
That's global distro rights things. It's not their choice. It's the way the business is for global distro rights.
This is true for all media. Not a Hasbro in particular thing, more an effect of media business and how the rights are sold to abroad areas to air it and how those who buy the rights have control of said market for it. Hasbro could be sued for breach of contract if they overstepped any wider world distro agreements.

I am a U.S. Citizen and can not watch these because I am stationed on a base in Afghanistan. Why do they care who watches the videos?

Y’know this show isn’t half bad but it’s really brought down by the weak voice acting and bland dialogue

Does anyone else feel like
Protostar
Does anyone have some way of viewing it if your country is restricted?

Meh, wasn't as good as the last couple episodes, but was far from being bad. Just didn't particularly appeal to me. Definite highlight was Rack'n'Ruin, and evil/fake Optimus trailing his axe against the wall was surprisingly effective. Plus, it's nice having the current day plot actually move along again. The last couple eps it hasn't particularly felt like much was going on in the current time, so yeah, interested to see where it goes next, in terms of present day stuff, and if the flashbacks are still a thing going forward.

Who hopes we get a Rack\'n\'Ruin figure in any of the Transformers toylines?

I like the blue Ironhide looking Autotroopers.
