Have to say there isnt really as ba dpiece of art work in there. Now why couldnt the freakin G1 be like this!
Impressed so far, especially with the minicons which is what I had hopes for.
Also the Airazor art was nice and bodes well for BW stuff if its along tyhe same lines.
Since its supposedly DW universe stuff its kinda strange that Galvatron is Megatron. I thought theyd make him seperate as the comic never featured this transformation (or not yet anyway?). Kinda puzzling.
LIked what they did with Clench and consequently a bit of Leader-1 too. L-1 is possibly my fave armada character after all.
Also the alternate colour schemes is a nice touch and pimps up the repaints

yeah but they didn't do some of the alternate colour schemes that are in the the tv show. Like Demolisher for an example, other than that it was really good comic. can't wait for ish 2

Oh for certain but i like how they're selling the minicons. Its nice to give the little guys features and not just concentrate on the Primes and so forth all the time.
One of my face G1 stories was the Outback/Prime vs the Wreckers one as it gave little Outback some real nice 'air time'.

I never knew there were female minicons. Is that the only one in Armarda MTMTE 1 or is there more female minicons.

She's the Minicon Partner for CHEETOR. Her Profile is dead straight in the middle of the profile book, on the left page, just before Cyclonus's profile.

[glow=blue,2,000]I got mine.... I realized the thing that seperates Armada from G1 in looks, is the design of most characters are very robotic and square like. It may take away from the original concept of having robots looking almost like half cars but its a good direction to take to stand out. I like the background behind the characters, and I'm kind of glad G1 didn't do it that was. Guess because you can just consentrate on the TF on the page. That and it makes it easy to pull the image off the page when the background is a single color![/glow]

Im liking the four BW repaints now as the horsemen in Energon (the new issue is pretty good). With any luck we'll get a profile book on energon sometime in the not to distant future and have Horsemen bios in it.
As for female mini-cons... not sure I care.

Was tempted to rename this thread 'Secrets of Unicron my ass!' but decided against it.
Issue 3 was a complete let down. There I was expecting some interesting material about Armada/energon unicron and we get a lamo tech spec entry like everyone elses that tells us nothing of interest.
id hoped for some more referance to Sideways as his profile was 'unfinished'.
The only surprise good bit was Deadend, man that was a totally bad ass profile entry! Top marks for that one!
Anyway on the plus side...
The art was pretty neat throughout. I liked some of the powerlinx art at the end. Also the use of more neutral TFs was good to blur the line between bot and con. Thundercracker being the prime example but also with aspects of Scavenger (spefically his entry in Skywarp's profile). Also they have given some great characters to the minicons.
Overall very good, just they shouldnt have billed it as 'secrets of Unicron'
