Combiner Wars animated series by Machinima

[BigTransformerTrev]

I love Beast Wars, but getting the thread back on track.

I am going to start to speculate of the list of characters, and who I would like to see.

We know the usual suspects will be there Bruticus, Devastator, Menasor, Superion, Defensor. I am hoping that we will get to see Predaking, he did just get inducted into the TF hall of fame.

Will we see Galvatronus, Optimus Supreme, Sky Reign or Victoritron?

Even if we go just by the Combiner Wars Toyline they have a pretty full roster for one cartoon (which is awesome!):

AUTOBOT Combiners
Mirage
Ironhide
Prowl
Sunstreaker
Optimus Prime

Trailbreaker
Hound
Smokescreen
Wheeljack
Sky Lynx

Air Raid
Firefly
Skydive
Quickslinger
Alpha Bravo
Powerglide
Silverbolt

First Aid
Streetwise
Groove
Blades
Rook
Hot Spot

The 5 Femmes that will make up Victorion

Scattershot

Other Characters
Wreck-Gar
Warpath
Rodimus
Huffer
Pipes
Windcharger
And apparently the 3 regular femmebots are going to be in it as well


DECEPTICON Combiners
Dead End
Breakdown
Drag Strip
Brake-Neck
Offroad
Blackjack
Motormaster

Long Haul
Scavenger
Hook
Mixmaster
Bonecrusher
Scrapper

Swindle
Brawl
Vortex
Blast Off
Onslaught

Other Characters
Megatron
Starscream
Thundercracker
Skywarp
Shockwave
Cyclonus
Bombshell
Chop Shop
Buzzsaw
Viper



It would be interesting as you say to see if Galvatronus makes an appearance. Also seeing the combienr group that will make up the TFSS 4.0 might help even the Combiner line-up a bit

I'm not so sure Hasbro will promote the club subscription combiner in a cartoon, unless they're trying to get more people to join up, AND the cartoon will be aired well before the subscription deadline...

Na it's pretty doubtful, just a passing hope

[prjkt]

my far-sighted hope that this is a cartoon based on the IDW RiD comics, from issue 1 up until now - with maybe less focus on the early politics, and starting close to Megatron's return/Aerialbot's desertion

I am so looking forward to this. Machinima was responsible for bringing us Mortal Kombat Legacy as well so you know it's gonna be good.

I'm not going to get too excited about this just yet.
The concept has LOADS of potential to finally merge the G1 grounding with modern day Transformers with some great storytelling...

/DREAM MODE ON
If we could have Beast Wars story quality with Transformers Prime CGI/background animation and G1 voices (where possible) and as few humans as possible (preferably NOT kids)... that would floor me.
/DREAM MODE OFF

In reality I am setting my expectations at RID2015 poor animation with a "combiner of the week" style episode story where they constantly have to save annoying kid characters from being squished... and I'm not even going to guess at voices.

If they score Peter Cullen then I'll watch it purely to see if they FINALLY give Optimus some of his G1 emotion/camaraderie back regardless of bad animation. They'd get bonus points from me for letting him voice Ironhide...

Whatever comes of this my son will be watching as he can't put his Combiner Wars figures down. They have to be his most used Transformers ... and STILL going strong in terms of wear and tear and every day play.

Really excited for this. I hope it is accessible easily as it is only a web series.

Wish they will give this one a good length...

Wish they will give this one a good length...

Hopefully if it proves popular enough it will prompt the powers that be to make more like it

I just found out about this! WOW!

I hope this actually happens, being done with justice!
