Transformers Animated Episode 23 Official Disscussion

[Protoman]

A lot of people say G1 Starscream colors... but I really got a Armada Starscream vibe, specially when he was trying to strike a deal and join the Autobots to take out Megatron. Also that Prowl sidecar.... if Hasbro does not make it (SHOCK!!!) then I am sure TFclub's men would be GLAD to work something out.

Something tells me they'll release it at a SWTF price point... therefore making us purchase the same figure once more.

A very Big thanks to brr-icy for making this thread, and for doing it right. I was exhausted after Anime North last night and just completely forgot about doing the whole Animated news stuff.

I also have yet to see the episode, for that matter I haven't seen last weeks episode yet either.

I imagine some kind of Voyager set with no Lightpost/Signal Lancer.

Wow, what an excellent episode! Prowl aka Mr. Happy Mods was fantastic.

I really like Starscream's character and his little speech about peace to the Autobots And he forgot Bulkhead's name haha

Is this the first episode of the series in which Sari did not make an appearance?

The last time Lockdown showed up was also the last time we went without humans in an episode.

Introduced specifically so a company like Justittoys or TF Club can produce an unofficial $20 upgrade kit.

I like the episode, but I got a feeling pt. 2 will be even better.

Btw, Prowl with sidecar upgrade has been confirmed at Botcon if I recall well. He will still be a deluxe.

[Icetron]

That was great, I sorta hoped Prowl would keep his armor/samurai upgrade but he wouldn't be Prowl anymore. The fights were great though.

Too me it kinda reminded me of Jetfire.

Highlights of this episode:
1) Great animation, way above average!
2) Homage to Spaghetti Westerns with the Poncho, team ups and stand-offs... they just needed Lockdown smoking a cigar and wearing a 10 gallon hat
3) Awesome Samurai Prowl battle armor!
4) SS Clones, probably the source of the other G1 seekers
5) No Sari and BB

Just a recommendation if you have the patience check out "The Good, The Bad and the Ugly" one of Clint Eastwoods better westerns imo.

Cheers Brr-icy!
