I guess I have to wait for a few years because here in Holland they are always so late with these new cartoons 
And then they dont show them on the internet as well
Its just not fair!

And what I forgot to add is: new chararters? I really hope its not like a new Ironhide (Energon) and so on... If so I think its going to be a crappy cartoon. Everything that came after Beast Wars turned out to be so soft...

Well, I can't say I'm surprised considering this is Cartoon Network we're talking about here. I figured the designs were gonna look like ass. :SICK:
Gimme back my anime Transformers plz. >_>;
EDIT: And in hindsight I can't help but laugh in the general direction of all those folks who constantly glitched and moaned for a TF series made in a Western country because they couldn't stand the Japanese series'... Well, you guys got what you wanted. Happy now?

It looks odd, but like the movie designs, we'll have to get used to it. Realllllllly trying to shock the fandom lately aren't they?

Good question! His head is freakin' huge!
I'll wait to see some more pics before I pass my final judgement, but this is bad, even for concept art (if that's even what it is). Plus, what the heck is up with the ultra lame "animated" title? Weren't the TF series always animated? Maybe we're just supposed to forget all about them.
What will it take to get a decent TF show on the air again? Let's just hope the writing is excellent. Maybe there is hope yet.

It wouldn't be so bad if everything didn't "flow" into everything else. It makes Prime look like he's in spandex rather than a robot with different parts.

Well, I kinda saw this coming. You figure if this is coming from the people who do Teen Titans & The Batman, this is what we would get. Although I think this could be promising. This face of Optimsu even looks like a David Kaye voice. I think the rest of them will be interesting, as long as the story & plots don't suck. The toys will definately be interesting......very interesting indeed.....yeesss

One side of me likes it because at first glimpse you know this is Optimus Prime. But the other side of me hates it because I just don't like that kind of design.

How...angular.
Man, whatever kid trips and falls on one of these things is going to bleed out within 3 minutes. That's a lot of pointy edges.
Seriously, you could lose an arm in there.

Ya know, it wouldn't be SO bad if they reduced the size of Prime's jaw. As it is - blech! His jas is bigger than the rest of his head. Annime-tylized I can accept, mut mega-bad proportions just make him look.... bloated.

Wow I don't know what to say about this...
Did anyone notice it looks like Prime is wearing Super hero spandex underwear?
Are they really gonna try and imitate Super heroes? Sorry but more Robot metal, less super hero spandex. I would prefer something more serious but I will be interested to see how this thing turns out.

Imagine that, Cartoon Network made TFs look like all the other crappy characters they show on TV now; and I don't just mean on CN. Thankfully Cybertron looked like the toys because that OP is hideous. And people thoght movie designs were disgusting.
