So I watched episode #1 on Fridat and the rest just now given that it's a very short series, AND I LOVED IT!
I was initially worried neh even dissapointed that it was only 6 episodes, yet by the time I had watched them all I was fufilled and ready for more. I just love the way it looks also with the scratched up paint work, even down to (If you look) some erosion across to the top of Prime's chest in robot mode. Right down to the cities and back drops, it all looks georgeous! Some have already lambasted the way they walk and how breathy the characters talk and yes, some.seem.to.talk.like.this but it's a small nit pick I can personally shake off. Likewise with the multiple body use, and not just just the rainmaikers but multiple uses of the mirage, sideswipe/car, hound,impactor re-uses for background characters being shot up. It is a little distracting and I wish they'd used more range instead of repeating, but again it's a small nitpick just like sizing. (Shouldn't Shockwave be bigger? Why is Prowl so smol next to elita?)
On the positive, I like how Bumblebee (As well as actually being voiced and no supid damaged voice circuit) was a neutral in all this and just wanted peace and not be involved with either side. I thought the guy doing starscream's voice did a pretty good job too. Any concerns of how little the Autobot numbers were thankfully were aliviated when some well knows poppoed up. (Oh hello Ratchet!, Prowl, Cliffjumper on a viewscreen!) I also like how the end wasn't what I expected, I expected blip, blip blip "Warning planet ahead" not what we got instead and goddammit they had to leave it there didn't they!
I definetly want more.
