Doing Prime QnA with creators now, Kline et al, showing upcoming ep clip.
Bulkhead and Miko in dark tunnel, Bulkhead screaming like little girl cuz its dark and he's scared. BB and raf in another par of tunnel. being chased by little insection like bots, that actually looks like round sharkticon faces.
Swarmed up the tunnel into autobot base and kicked Ratchets butt. All three back up in base, all getting eaten by the bugs, no happy ending.
Talking about how awesome Cullen and Welker are. (They) Do record in real time, with all actors in room, rather than in spurts.
Most CG series have 2 year pre cycle. This only had a year. Most premiere 1 ep, then come back later, they did 5. So, it has been a challenge.
Hesitation to do what they did with Cliffjumper? Wanted to set a tone right off the bat for the show. Have it be accessible to kids and adults through story. Cliffjumper may be revisited in flashback episodes, and connection between him and Arcee.
Zombie TFs, or hidden transformers on earth, will we see more? Yes more bots and cons. But, being CG, it will be more limited than other forms of animation. More cons than bots. Female Decepticons. Sleepers on this planet, and some from outer space.
Dig Arcee and Ratchet. More Dark Energon, used in new ways. Are there other forms of Energon???
Hints - Planned for 3 year arc. End of season 1 is HUGE. From Past, about as "BIG AS YOU CAN GET" mumble.... planet.... mumble...
