Rescue Bots Season Three promos and details

[griffin]

As Season three of Rescue Bots is apparently just around the corner, Hasbro have released some promo clips on youtube, but apparently none have included any Season 3 scenes.
The Music video looks to be Season 1 clips, while the other two promo videos are apparently just Season 2 clips (I haven't seen season 2 yet, so wouldn't know)... because Season 3 is supposed to feature their new Dinosaur forms to sell the new toys.

It looks like the Rescue Bots cartoon is staying on the renamed "HUB" channel in America, while the new Robots in Disguise cartoon will be on Cartoon Network channel.

For a little tease of what their animated Dino-forms might look like in the cartoon, there is also a commercial on Youtube for the new "Rescue Dinobots"... really cashing in on the Dinobot theme of 2014.

Looks like Season 3 of Rescue Bots is only a little over a week away, with the first two episodes screening in America on November 1st on the rebranded HUB channel called Discovery Family.

The first two episode titles and details have been released, so "spoilers" if anyone is treating this series worthy of spoilers...

After discovering an island of dinosaurs, Optimus must embrace his primal side.

S3E02 - Big Game

Rescue Bots season 3 started today in America featuring the new Dinosaur theme... which means the last two episodes for season 2 have gone missing for no announced reason.

According to the Rescue Bots story editor (Nicole Dubuc) on twitter, the third season of Rescue Bots will be another full 26 episodes.

When those episodes air (along with the two missing Season 2 episodes), it will become the second longest running Transformers cartoon series.

Yes, the humble Rescue Bots cartoon, which has been putting along in the background of the fan community, will have 78 episodes by the end of this season, which will put it ahead of every other series except the original series (Generation 1), and only 20 episodes behind that one... which gives it the potential to become the longest running Transformers series if it continues into a fourth full year.

Something else for it to boast about.
(now if only we could get all the episodes released for fans to collect)

The next three episodes to screen in America include one of the two episodes from Season Two that they missed... which is being referred to as a Season Three episode for now.
"The Riders of Midwinter" is the episode from Season Two.

S3 E7 Bugs in the System (Airs December 6, 2014)
Doctor Morocco proves that even small pests can pose dangerous threats to Griffin Rock.

S3 E8 Switcheroo (Airs December 13, 2014)
A space nebula causes the Rescue Bots and Burns family to switch personalities.

S3 E9 The Riders of Midwinter (Airs December 20, 2014)

The next two episodes of Season Three in America. They are really going through this new season very fast.
The source site lists them as episodes 10 and 11, but could be 9 and 10, due to the second season episode being slotted in after episode 8. (in previous posting)
