Transformers: Prime Episode 4 Discussion

Damn, this is getting really good. Even the humans are growing on me. So what new 'Cons will come over the bridge from Cybertron?

[King Benny]

Wow... Episode 4 was awesome! The action was fierce. It still shocks me at how violent this cartoon is. I love it! The characters are all fun to watch (especially like Starscream).
Episode 4 really SOLD me on this show! Can't wait for Episode 5!

Battle blades Prime! Wicked...very dark feel to the show and a lot of action. So far better than what I expected.

RECON! ROCK ON!

Episode 4 was amazing! The pace slowed a little in 3 but 4 just brought it all the way to the top. Bulkhead acting like a beast, killing everything that got in his way was awesome. Even better he's starting to incorporate some pro wrestling moves into his fighting style, and that's always cool to see from a big bot.

Starscream showed both his really cool side and cowardly side in this episode, which is nice to see from him.

Optimus and Ratchet was a pretty cool team. I was a little disappointed to see swords out of Optimus though, especially right after Ratchet pulled out a pair of his own, and that Megatron has one as well. Also a nice touch from Megatron was when he didn't kill Optimus when he had the chance. It shows that defeating Optimus is more than simply killing him, it's about how he does it.

It's cool that most/all of the characters have blasters as well as a melee weapon. Bulkhead with his giant guns and his hammerfists, Optimus with his dual rifle-like guns and his swords. I don't believe we've seen what Ratchet has on the side of blasters, or what Arcee and Bumblebee have on the side of melee weapons. It is cool that Bumblebee has wrist guns similar to his stingers from Animated though, and Arcee with her sniper like gun.

[Protoman]

Miko is becoming the only human character of interest. I am all about the GAR and this little girl has it. Jack is too busy being boring and emo, Ralph is all I CANS HAXXOR ANYTHING WITH MY WINDOWS XP MARY SUE.

But Miko, she rocks. She throws up the devil horns, rocks out and enjoys some good ol' robot gore. "You rescued Fowler? ROCK ON!!!!"

[Dragon Knight]

I guess my problem was just how stupid and reckless she was acting in this episode...then again, Sari was the same way wasn't she?

LOL she'll probably grow on me as the series progresses.

[Onslaught]

I didn't like Miko in episode 3, but I actually liked her a lot better in this episode. Right now she's probably my favourite of the humans, part of the reason is her being fairly interesting and odd, and the other part is her being partnered with Bulkhead, since whenever anything is involved with Bulkhead it reaches higher levels of coolness.

... To be perfectly honest.. I think my favourite design (so far) is Starscream... Holy crap, his plane acrobatics of Movie SS fame and evil robot mode is just so sleek. I love jets that like to aim their thrusters at fembots...

Also, is twin blades the new black on Cybertron.. Cuz even Ratchet has a pair now O_o....I think there's a bit much of integration going on here with the weapons... Can't they have normal handheld things?
