Re: Netflix Transformers War for Cybertron Part 1: Siege Now Online
Good overall series so far.
Positives:
- Art is spot on to the toys, and the movements are smooth and fairly natural, for Robots lol.
- Story is good. Some clunky parts, of course, but overall a good story from beginning to end. Although not treading a lot of new ground.
- Characterizations are a good mix of usual G1 expectations and some new takes on old characters.
Negative:
- Too dark visually. I get it that there is a war and devastation but they should have had more well lit scenes.
- characterizations. I know I said they were a positive, but they were also a negative. Some characters just didn't seem believable, or didn't fit well (IMO).
Unsure:
- Voices. I liked some, didn't like others so kind of unsure how I feel.
Mild Spoiler ahead.....

I loved the sheer size of Astrotrain. I don't think he has ever been portrayed that large, in robot mode at least, in any media. He was easily the size of a combiner if not bigger. Just a shame he had all of 3 seconds of screen time, and no lines.
