Thanks to notifications from a number of Seibertronian community members, we are able to link to the first trailer for the upcoming animated series created by Hasbro and Boulder Media Studios - Transformers: Rescue Bots Academy!

Check it out below!

Think goodness their starting to experiment with Optimus voices that are not Peter Cullen. (I love Peter but he cant be Optimus forever...plus honestly his Optimus voice outside of the movies has been getting dull for awhile but that's probably more on the dreaded bad written dialogue we have gotten in the last few cartoons)
Hot Shot and Whirl sound fine, it's a show for younger kids so I'm not going to expect this to be something for me.

It doesn't look too bad, the animation and designs look ok for what it is, and it's good to hear someone other than Peter Cullen voicing Optimus for a change. Once the toys come out I might get a Hot Shot and a Wedge for my nephew (I would say Whirl too, but he prefers things with wheels). I hope the toyline includes some figures with a pull-back-and-go function, because that's my nephew's favorite type of toy right now, I got him the Rescue Bots Supercharger Bumblebee for his first birthday and he loves it.

So.... Yeah. That looks like the Beast Hunter Optimus Prime design...
Got hit hmwith a baseball bat before ot was rendered in Flash Cell whatever... Its eh.
Not fond that that changed Heatwave's head to a grizzled old drill seargent, but oh well.
Kinda sad Medix didnt keep her ambulance alt mode given that Hoist is a straight up copy of his. Not thT it matters since I am not buying these, but.
Can I just say though I am ecstatic at the RID Revival? We are getting Shadow Striker in Cyberverse, now Wedge is an orange bobcat in Rescue Bots. Can I get a new Side Burn somewhere please?

Courtesy of Toon Boom and an interview they published with Robert Cullen, animator and founder of Boulder Media Studios - the Hasbro partner working on the upcoming animated series Rescue Bots Academy and Transformers: Cyberverse - we have a quick look at the two designs for Hot Shot and Bumblebee from the two shows respectively (you can discussion Rescue Bots Academy in its thread here).
Cullen talks about the studio in general and the recent acquisition by Hasbro and nothing specific about the shows, but if you're curious, you can look at the relevant passages below!
Cullen talks about the studio in general and the recent acquisition by Hasbro and nothing specific about the shows, but if you're curious, you can look at the relevant passages below!
Boulder went from producing three projects at most to six IPs including season two of Danger Mouse and Hasbro’s Micronauts, The Littlest Pet Shop, My Little Pony: Equestria Girls and Rescue Bots Academy, all in Toon Boom Harmony. The studio is also storyboarding the latest Transformers series and its first CG animated feature film in Storyboard Pro.
With so many new productions, Boulder suddenly needed storyboard artists, concept designers and animators. The challenge became to scale up and find top talent without losing its quality and personality.
“We’ve always been quite selective about who we hire and it’s not just the talent I’m looking at; I want to know if they’re nice people and if they will fit in,” says Cullen.
Its team now includes people from around Ireland and the world, though growing from 160 to 360 seats in just over a year comes with certain concerns as well. Namely, keeping the boutique studio corporate culture it had established.
“Each project has a team with their own director and production manager — every piece feels like it’s a boutique production that people can take pride in,” says Cullen. “It doesn’t feel like we’re this vast company making random shows and we have to make sure it stays that way.”

Thanks to fellow Seibertron user, jON 3.0, we've now learned that script writing team Double Z Creative are working on the scripts for the Rescue Bots Academy cartoon, produced by Boulder Media. UK and Irish fans will recognise Double Z as the creators of Zig and Zag, regular fixtures on the old channel 4 show "The Big Breakfast" and chart toppers with their own number one single in the nineties. The pair have also seen a resurgence with their own cartoon on the BBC kids channel, CBBC (Still with Double Z handling scripts and doing voices).
Also, through a report over at TFW2005, it's been revealed that the show will feature 104 episodes, though the episodes themselves will be 11 minutes each.

104 11 minute episodes is basically the same commitment as 52 22 minute episodes. 52 episodes seems to be the "sweet spot" of commitment run (i.e., 4 seasons of 13 episodes).

Thanks to a heads up from Seibertronian Sabrblade, we have word that the newest generation of Rescue Bots is headed out way, and we are going to get a sneak preview this Saturday! This news comes to us from the Discovery Family Twitter page, and includes a 30 second trailer for the brand new series. Rescue Bots Academy is the 2nd project to be coming out of the Boulder Media Transformers group, with Cyberverse being the first. It features characters from the original Rescue Bots show (albeit, with different voice actors), and introduces us to brand new Rescue Bots, among which are Hot Shot and Whirl!
You can check out the trailer below, brought to Youtube courtesy of Madame Pom News, and let us know if you plan to tune in on Saturday!

It's heartbreaking to watch this series. I worked on the pitch for the show which I was happy about and had my fingers crossed about actually working on the series. After I heard about how they recast the original actors (most of them would probably have been more than able & willing to continue as the characters) and how they only did the voices in house in NY and LA didn't even get auditions then seeing the format of the show, I have mixed feelings about it. I'm saddened that my friends that worked on RB didn't even get considered to be in the series. I'm saddened I and other friends who are fans and would've loved a shot to be in a TF series were not given that chance. Who knows? Maybe something bigger and better is still on the horizon.

I wish watching this series (past Episode 1) was even doable at this point.
But I feel ya, Jon. After years and years of LA and Vancouver being the places for actors to record Transformers shows, for them to suddenly switch it all up and over to New York (a talent pool that's never done Transformers before) for both RBA and Cyberverse is disheartening indeed.

At long last, we got links to watch, thus far, the first 14 episodes of this show.
"Recruits Part I"
"Recruits Part II"
"If at First..."
"Tough Luck Chuck"
"Whirl'd View"
"Plan Bee"
"The Bot Who Cried Rescue"
"Mount Botmore"
"Mission Inaudible"
"Glitch"
"Five Into Four"
"Rescue Promo"
"Blame Game"
"Surprise, Medix!"
The show truly does feel like a legitimate sequel to the first show, with lots of continuity ties and references, and despite the all new voice cast, the acting is worlds better than in Cyberverse.
Though, I would also recommend switching "If at First..." and "Tough Luck Chuck" around, as the latter feels like it fits better as Episode 3 than as Episode 4.

And now, seemingly without any fanfare, I noticed last night Season 1 of RB Academny is streaming on Netflix.
It is sad because the original RB is *kind of* how my son was introduced into Transformers. It came out when he was 6, and was perfect for him, although he had seen other series thanks to me.
It is unfortunate however, as since these shows cater to such a young audience, the window for their appeal is very short. I'll agree they are well written, and teach good lessons However.... as was painfully obvious last night, my son, now 13 had zero interest in this, which is completely understandable.
I mean with the Original Series, BW, and Prime, you cant still watch those as an adult and be entertained. Not so much, especially with Academy that I'd argue skews even younger than the original RB.
So basically, I told my son this show is for his friends who have younger siblings. It is their turn to get their own show. If you have any kids ages 3-7, or know anybody who dies, let them know this is on Netflix now, and let them enjoy.

While I'm not really a fan of this show, many of you no doubt know I'm a numbers junkie. In fact I made a news announcement (on another site of course...) way back When Energon was airing in 2004 as to celebrating the franchises overall 500th episode (which unbeknownst to me was a special in Japan which was dubbed on CN as "Distribution"...although the count IMHO was off, a bit, it can be open to interpretation)
Now however, since the landscape of media has changed, we have some 5 minute episodes, and several series with 11 minute episodes. It becomes more difficult to keep track. If we were to solely count episodes, the franchise would probably be approaching 970. But using my system (counting basically for 21 minutes of content=1 episode). I have determined that the RB Academy Episodes "Hack Attack" & "Life of the Party" which recently aired to be the *900th* Episode of Transformers overall.
In either case. If you count each individually, or pair them up for content time, its a pretty impressive feat. Will there be any acknowledgement by Hasbro, TT or the Fandom as the franchise approaches it's 1000th overall episode? Only time will tell.

Though, when the episodes were released contemporaneously through iTunes, this goof did not occur as the intended 100th episode did see release in its intended order, much to the confusion of everyone at the time who had no idea about the mix-up with Discovery Family and instead thought that iTunes goofed up at the time.

Who knows. When the first Rescue Bots series had its 100th episode, somebody goofed and ended up airing the 102nd episode as the 100th, leaving the ones that were intended to be numbers 100 and 101 to instead air as 101 and 102, completely throwing off the celebratory feel that the true 100th episode had.o.supreme wrote:In either case.

(And why does RBA get so many more episodes than Cyberverse does? Cyberverse could use the extra screen time.)

Thanks to a heads up from Seibertronian Sabrblade, we have news that the long awaited Rescue Bots Academy Season 2 Trailer is now live!
The Season 2 trailer is 90 seconds long, and gives us a look at the upcoming Rescue bots series, which centers around a group of young new recruits. Following the fact that this is Season 2, the season will focus in on the 2nd year of the recruits training, where each recruit is paired up with a Mentor, which includes the likes of Heatwave, Bumblebee, and Grimlock! We also see that Hot Shot has a lot going on, and it looks like he is set to be a stand out in season 2.
Sadly, there is no sign of Ratchet and Perceptor yet, who are both supposed to be in this new season.
Check out the trailer below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

Ratchet is on the left at 0:26, sporting a cyberverse design it seems.

Speaking of things to keep your little bots occupied, Hasbro is offering something for the younger fans. On their Instagram page, they offered a free, downloadable coloring page for parents to print that lets kids color in Optimus Prime and Hot Shot from the Rescue Bots Academy show. The picture is mirrored below, and you can download it for your kids (or yourself, no judgement ) by clicking on the picture.
'Til All Are Colored In.

Greetings Seibertronians. Today we bring you somber news as it appears that Rescue Bots Academy is coming to an end. One of the creators of the hit show have taken to twitter to thank all those that have worked on the series over at Boulder Media.
This isn't just the end of the show though, but, unless Hasbro announce a continuation of sorts, this is the end of the Aligned Universe. Aligned started with the shows Transformers Prime and the original Rescue Bots, with the Activisions two Cybertron games also falling into this universes story line. Robots in Disguise 2015 carried the Prime storyline on until its own cancellation, leaving Rescue Bots and Rescue Bots Academy to fly the flag for Aligned.
This is the original tweet by Pete Slattery.
The series still has some episodes left to air before its end.
Have you been enjoying the run of Rescue Bots Academy? Let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews.

Did it run its course or is this because of current events?

Season 2 completed it's production and has had all of its episodes fully aired over in the UK, so it most likely ran its course.chuckdawg1999 wrote:Did it run its course or is this because of current events?

Option #3: Several children looked it up on youtube, stumbled across the Police Academy cartoon by mistake, and were traumatized so badly that Hasbro decided to rebrand.Sabrblade wrote:Season 2 completed it's production and has had all of its episodes fully aired over in the UK, so it most likely ran its course.chuckdawg1999 wrote:Did it run its course or is this because of current events?

Cyberverse is wrapped too so wonder if this means anything for Boulder Studios or if that's reading too much into it.Sabrblade wrote:Season 2 completed it's production and has had all of its episodes fully aired over in the UK, so it most likely ran its course.chuckdawg1999 wrote:Did it run its course or is this because of current events?

Real shame. As kiddy as it is, I still admire what RBA did. Can’t wait for S2 to drop in the U.S!
Also, we have the titles for the rest of the episodes:

Yucky? How can you think that the rest of the little bots are yucky looking? I think that all the characters were cute. Expect for the adults. I find them creepy.
And I’m sad that I never got to see Medix as an ambulance.
