To add to recent news of the beginning of Combiner Force - season 3 of Transformers: Robots in Disguise - French website programme-tv.net also has a synopsis for King of the Hill (and it looks like both parts), which will air this Tuesday in France. We've translated it into English for you below!

The Transformers Robots In Disguise face a new threat and need to combine their strengths. When Team Bee confront a dangerous Stunticon with missiles at his disposal, Grimlock, the brawn of the group, suggests they learn new combat techniques. The Autobots reach Antarctica to fight Decepticon Prong, a monster that has just thawed out of a glacier that was holding it prisoner.

This guy must be Prong, then.

Also, this Polish site has the names of four more episodes after the "King of the Hill" two-parter:

Episode 48. "Defrosted"
Episode 49. "Blurred"
Episode 50. "Sphere of Influence"
Episode 51. "Bee Cool"

Supposedly today 4 new episodes are going to be aired in France

Youtube user *Angelina Pax* has stated they are going to try to live stream them beginning at 11:30am PST, 2:30pm EST, 3.5 hours form this post. Not sure what language they will be in, but if you want to se them as quickly as possible this might be a good chance

We have some more news concerning Transformers: Robots in Disguise, thanks to Seibertronians MadProject and Sabrblade! After the French listings were found, a trailer for the apparently four-episode 'marathon' on French channel Gulli was uploaded to YouTube - which makes more sense of the description, especially when combined with the titles of the four episodes that follow King on the Hill, as found here:

Episode 48. "Defrosted"
Episode 49. "Blurred"
Episode 50. "Sphere of Influence"
Episode 51. "Bee Cool"

'Defrosted' is probably the one featuring Prong, as reported earlier, and 'Blurred' probably (duh) introduces the blue speedster we're familiar with - bringing the total to four new episodes to be shown tonight in France. Check out the trailer, and see if that makes sense to you too!

At least they transform the same, unlike Bee, Prime, and Sideswipe when they crossed over to Rescue bots. It makes sense though, the basic design, colors, and feel were there, but the designs were still just different enough, so this does work

We've had worse examples anyway. Optimus for example; when did he have time to scan the new Earth vehicle mode again? Or is that something else the Primes gave him? Here; have this sword, some basic training and a sweet truck mode. We won't actually bother to give you much help in the fight against a demi-god and instead have you rely on others to beat him up with Prison Equipment. But we gave you a truck mode. Man, we're even better demi-gods than Marvel's Watchers!

Why does Blurr have to look the same between shows? RID BB is the same character as Prime BB but they look different. Same thing here.

For the record I didn't, in fact I never even gave it a thought. Always thought they were two completely separate characters that happen to have the same name (like FoC Grimlock & RiD15 Grimlock)...

At least when characters crossed over into RB they had the same color scheme and basic look.
As for changing modes...well...Honestly I never took Rescue Bots seriously. I know its supposed to be part of the "aligned continuity", but it really is its own thing. The designs on RB are all simplified, there's no way they could do in simple flash animation what Prime or BB would look like from TFP. They got the colors and basic design down.

To me the two Blurr's look nothing alike, but I know they can scan new modes. No doubt they'll just have a throw away line about him scanning a new form or something.

The Aligned media rarely ever gave two cents about aesthetic consistency. Across the Prime cartoon, Rescue Bots cartoon, and RID cartoon, we're supposed to believe that the bodies that Optimus and Bumblebee appear in within each cartoon are all the SAME bodies across the board, with the only exception being Optimus's upgraded body and Bee's black-recolored body in Prime season 3.

Same with Sideswipe, too:

Even the video games were guilty of this. Optimus has one body in WFC, then suddenly has a completely new look in FOC with zero in-universe explanation, which we're just supposed to accept as being how he already looked.

Granted, but the pictures you posted make my point. Though there are obvious differences in each character(based on each shows animation style)

Objectively speaking...you could show someone who's unfamiliar with these characters and they would be able to match which are Prime with Prime, BB with BB, Sideswipe with Sideswipe, heck even the Cyclone Mini-Con design on RB was recognizable. But with the two Blurr's they are completely different....I'm not saying its not possible/plausible, or that its a bad or wrong decision, I'm just saying the recognition is not instantaneous as it is with all the others.

Believe me, man, I was on the same side as you before back when the toy was first revealed, but even before the cartoon trailer came out everyone in the toy thread shut me up for even daring to consider the possibility that it might not be Rescue Bots Blurr because everyone was SO SURE it was Rescue Bots Blurr because he looked SO MUCH LIKE Rescue Bots Blurr. :roll:

wow sorry to hear that...well unfortunately I don't collect RiD toys (other than getting the deployers and Mini-Cons for my son), so I missed out on all that.

that would have been tough, especially with only the toys to compare before we saw any animation. It will be interesting to see in a couple weeks if they address the change at all, or just "business as usual"

Also don't get me started on Cybertron. ;) . Maybe I was jaded after seeing some Galaxy Force episodes first, but I knew from the get-go it had nothing to do with Armada/Energon, why they had to shoehorn continuity was beyond me. To make matters worse, TT caved and did in fact retcon it to connect the other series somehow long after it aired... Should have stuck to their guns on that one.

In all honesty, Cybertron was supposed to be another sequel from its conception. GONZO either missed that memo or chose to ignore it when they made the cartoon into being a standalone series. It wasn't America tampering with a Japanese work so much as it was Japan mucking up what America had originally planned for the series in the first place. After all, it was Aaron Archer who drew up and outlined the earliest ideas for it on the so-called "Napkin of Revelation".

Simple; TFP Breakdown and RiD Wildbreak are both based upon the same G1 character and have similar visual characteristics, TFP Breakdown's much bigger mass notwithstanding. So naturally one gets to wondering if they were doing a resurrection, especially when we've had quite a few TFP characters come back in the show recently. It's a fair assumption to make.

TFPrime Breakdown was a beefed up G1 Breakdown basically, and Wildbreak doesn't even come close to sharing colors or look with him

? Both of them have their primary colour as dark blue, their secondary colour as grey and have a red face. We are talking about the same Wildbreak, right?
And yeah, TFP Breakdown was much more bulky; I'm not saying there's an exact resemblance or anything. But considering the precedent we have for characters from TFP looking very different even in body shape (Soundwave most especially), I still think it was a fair theory to have. It's not like I'm theorising one of Galvatronus' limbs is Bulkhead; there was fair grounding and reasoning for this.

I'm... I'm still not seeing it at all. That is unmistakingly Wildrider. It's not really Breakdown blue and the secondary colors don't really match up either; a little, but not much, but even then it is pretty Wildrider than Prime Breakdown

TFPrime Breakdown was a beefed up G1 Breakdown basically, and Wildbreak doesn't even come close to sharing colors or look with him

? Both of them have their primary colour as dark blue, their secondary colour as grey and have a red face. We are talking about the same Wildbreak, right?
And yeah, TFP Breakdown was much more bulky; I'm not saying there's an exact resemblance or anything. But considering the precedent we have for characters from TFP looking very different even in body shape (Soundwave most especially), I still think it was a fair theory to have. It's not like I'm theorising one of Galvatronus' limbs is Bulkhead; there was fair grounding and reasoning for this.

I'm... I'm still not seeing it at all. That is unmistakingly Wildrider. It's not really Breakdown blue and the secondary colors don't really match up either; a little, but not much, but even then it is pretty Wildrider than Prime Breakdown

I'm looking at it closer and it does seem like his main colour is close to Wildrider. Think we'll put this down to a blue-and-black-dress/white-and-gold-dress thing.

I was pretty sure that the fact that there was no one named "Breakdown" on this team already made it a given that Prime Breakdown wouldn't be part of this Stunticon team.

Anyway, anyone got any thoughts on the two-part premiere, now that we finally have episode links?

Well, seeing Ultra Bee that early was a surprise, and the Stuntwing visit was very unexpected and felt very weird, though Bee flying was cool. I love Motormaster's voice too.

I TELL YOU WHAT, IT WAS alright. Not terrible, nothing amazing; just alright. Kinda how I feel about most of RiD 2015; it's a simple fun kids' show with little risks but that's alright and it's still fun.
I guess the biggest thing I have to say is that I'm not sure how I feel about the cutaways to Russel. On one hand it was a pretty good moral that is a rather important thing to learn and it was nicely done... on the other hand it was really awkwardly chucked into the episode and cut to; it had nothing to do with the rest of the plot and each time it showed up I was just thinking "GET BACK TO THE ACTION!"
So yeah, nice thing, just not very well placed. Also, bit of a shame that Heatseeker doesn't really have any personality outside of evil laughter and saying the word 'chief'. Oh wellllllllllllllllll

Also also, goddammit Soundwave's talkative

Err, yeah, sure, I'll take one for the team. I thought the first part was kind of sh*t, to be honest. Nothing completely against the writing, though there isn't much of substance in the first episode, but it was moreso clumsy in technical areas. For instance, the animation on Strongarm and Sideswipe through the episode, from when they're sparring in the base to when Sideswipe "transform jumps", seemed really unfinished. Their movements were clunkier than usual. Then, rather a problem with both parts, whoever Heatseeker's voice actor is really sucks donkey ass. The line delivery on that 'con was absolutely abysmal and cringeworthy.

So you can imagine how this makes the first part look when there's a bunch of production problems atop an uneventful story. However, the second part I found improved on everything. The animation wasn't unnatural anymore, the plot was actually going somewhere given we were now focusing more on Bumblebee's overconfidence (which is one of the best things about this two-parter), and then there's all the spoilerific tease at the end. Ultimately, part two was a lot more up-to-speed. Also, for how weirdly Russel's b-plot was shoved into this premiere, I did kinda like it.

Robots in Disguise (2015) has always had these really polarizing premieres. It usually goes that way, where one part is good and the other part is garbage. You just kind of have to go "ehh" by the end of it all, even if one part was worth watching. Therefore, this is just another RID premiere. By-the-numbers.

First Complaint: HeatSeeker really coulda been Offroad, since this is now the second time the Stunticons have called on a high performance Pickup.

It was nice seeing Team Bee go up against an actual Decepticon and fall flat on their face. They talked about losing their sharpness and all, but the Bee Team spent all of its "training" up against recently released prisoners. Sure, ther was Screamer, but they had help for him. That being said, I don't feel like this really needed to be 2 episodes. I am not sure what you cut out to to condense it, other than the totally unneeded Football game, as most of the action sequences were needed. but Heatseeker alone wasn't really enough to warrant two episodes. He felt repetitve. I liked his motives, and his stregy, and dare I say it his aggressiveness, although I completely agree with Pryme Striker

, whoever Heatseeker's voice actor is really sucks donkey ass. The line delivery on that 'con was absolutely abysmal and cringeworthy.
on hi vocal delivery.

Sideswipe/Strongarm felt like a step backwards. Surely by now they should be working in better synce in spite of each other's idiosyncracies. Iam kinda tired of that, too.

Poor Grimlock.

The Minicon really felt like a "To Sell Toys!" moment. ZFlying Bunblebee served no purpose, and as far as knocking loose his DH and scanner, that could easily have been chalked up to his regular battle with HeatSeeker. Is what it is though, I guess.

I am however, truly excited to see the Stunticons in action. Not sure why, but I have really resonated with them and even before Season 2 thought they would be good opponents for an Earth-based Autobot team. No huge interstellar plots, just good old King of the Road.

Soundwave spoke! While I, Like a lot of others, enjoyed his silent Prime run, lets be realistic, how else is he going to communicate when he's in another dimension? Gesture wildly? Shadow puppets? Long as he is not a chatterbox.

Fanfiction idea: What if, instead of Megatronus, it was Soundwave who orchestrated the crashing of the Alchemor on Earth? I've toyed with that thought for a long time, had they done that, they would have saved a season of "How is this a Sequel?"

I wonder how Soundwave gets loose from the Shadowzone?
