TF Animated General Discussion

[GoktimusPrime]

A lot of people enjoyed collecting CR/RiD in spite of not necessarily being fans of the show (the show isn't bad for its intended audience mind you) - it did give us some awesome figures which inspired Binaltech.

The comics would have been an opportunity to make it better but unfortunately they follow the TV show line by line.

Really? That's really disappointing... I've come to rely on the comics giving me a better alternative over the cartoon since the beginning of G1.

Time Wars (G1)Worlds Collide saga (Armada)

I am a fiction driven collector. Although I apreciate quality and design in toys, it is not what drives me to buy them and collect them. Good fiction and characterisation is what drives me to buy toylines.

ohwell hopefully it will be a little while b4 the toys come out.

The cartoon network has a schedule on their website... http://schedule.cartoonnetwork.com/x...d&timezone=EST

Missed the Spike Carly Daniel cameo. I'll have to go back and find it.

Hope you found it....

if not it was on the 3rd part at time index 2:46-2:48.

So is this going to show in Australia on Cartoon Network only?? I hope not... they made the mistake of showing Transformers exclusively on pay TV with Beast Machines (with a crap time slot) and that just didn't go down well. :/

There is a good chance that it will show on Toasted TV but even if it does it will be on at stupid times such as 6am on a Saturday morning and on top of that they would likely treat it like all previous cartoons in the way that they spontaneously change the timeslot without warning or get rid of the cartoon midway through a season only to resume it over a year later.

For Free to Air, Toasted TV is unfortunately the only choice for non ABC type cartoons. When I first arrived in Australia at the age of ten, Cartoons in Australia were already lackluster when it comes to Broadcast but you had saving graces such as Agro's cartoon connection and the Original Cheez TV. Unfortunately these days the only choice is the crapstacular Toasted TV for free to air cartoons.

you don't have to rely on Free-to-air TV anymore when you have the internet.
