For Episodes 12 & 13 for Decepticon Island, Steeljaw has finally created his ultimate Decepticon guerilla army to fight against the Autobots. This is what Steeljaw should have done back then on Cybertron. Does this mean that Steeljaw will free more Decepticons from the scrapeyard (excluding Scorponok and Crazybolt, since that they have betrayed Steeljaw, and that their pods have modified locks so that they cannot use subsonics to get out), or the brand new Cons that we have never heard of before, or a bit of both?

Anyone watched episode 8 yet?(Bumblebee's Night Off), i can't find it anywhere on the Internet yet! but apparently it's been broadcast........somewhere?

Having now caught up to Episode 8 (which we will not talk about as the american release isn't for another week) I can say things ended up going interesting. Steeljaw gets rid of Scorponok and tells the others he is a traitor, Crazybolt gets locked up (damn, I really liked him). though, I am irked by something. Steeljaw released only 6 cons. He released some without actually knowing who they were, and he didn't release Underbite, Fracture or his minicons. He also didn't release Overload's minicons. The choices were strange. Except for Fracture, all the guys released are getting toys this year, but it seems very weird to release Clampdown of all bots, but not Fracture or Underbite (the big bruiser)? I question that strongly :MAXIMAL:

Agreed, episode 8 was one of the best episodes in a while. I love, love, LOVED the final fight with Bumblebee and Bisk! The tracking shots of the "camera" made the fight look so much more realistic and cool, along with the slow-motion shots. Add the eye-rollingly unoriginal metal rock and you get my new favorite fight scene from RID. The new minicons are actually kinda adorably stupid, although I really don't like how this show has turned into the Autobots vs. Deployers show. It's cheapened a gimmick that should've been reserved for Drift, Fracture, Overload, and Crazybolt.

I do agree with you strongly. I loved that fight and it is my favorite now of the series. I loved the rock and roll battle in the flames and sparks and lights. I didn't like that Bisk was made a deployer, but oh well I guess. Still a really good episode :MAXIMAL:

When Hasbro is referring to Steeljaw leading a Decepticon army, does that include all the remaining Cons that Bumblebee has captured, such as, Terrashock, Nightstrike,, Pseudo, and many others, or only Glowstrike's crew, or both? Of course, he will not release Scorponok, because, he knew that Scorponok betrayed him. But will he ever release Crazybolt?

That army is probably Glowstrikes crew and the released prisoners not captured again. I doubt any more cons will be released.

And Scorponok did not betray them. Steeljaw made it seem like he did, but in reality he was just beaten, and Steeljaw has shown that he is more than willing to throw cons under the bus for his own gain :MAXIMAL:

I'm not talking about Glowstrike's crew or Scorponok. I'm actually meant that will Steeljaw's army include the Cons in the scrapyard, or Glowstrike's crew, or both? That's all.

Also, you meant that the Cons from the scrapyards will not likely be part of Steeljaw's army such as Terrashock, Nightstrike, Pseudo, and those type of Cons.

Well, I'm pretty sure that almost all of them will show up in the season 2 finale, Decepticon Island.

Let me ask you this: If Steeljaw wants anyone if is smart and intelligent, would Pseudo make a perfect spy for Steeljaw's army?

As of right now, there are still no signs of Steeljaw, Kickback, Sabrehorn, and Glowstrike's crew. What's going on here?

And I answered your question: Steeljaw's "army" will be Glowstrike's crew and whatever cons not recaptured that he released. It also means that we will not be seeing the cons from the scrapyard because Steeljaw did not release them, and considering he had the opportunity to do so and didn't, I doubt their release. So no, they most likely will not show up in the season 2 finale. And while Pseudo would make for a good ally, he wasn't released, and Steeljaw may not even know he was captured. And that crew in your last question is just on the ship. They do not need to show up in every episode. :MAXIMAL:

Remember when Steeljaw did released Bisk, Quillfire, Overload, Thunderhoof, Groundpounder Springload, and Clampdown? Remember that? Those Cons were from the scrapyard? But now, Bisk and Qullfire are the ones that are captured. In addition, Bisk and Quillfire did got captured 3 times. Do you think that Steeljaw will ever release them again? Don't forget Steeljaw did recruited them in the first place! Also just because that Steeljaw failed in releasing all the Cons from the scrapyard, that doesn't mean that he won't release them again. Because like his predecessor, Megatron, he's never going to quit. Even if Fixit did modified the pods, so that Steeljaw wouldn't have access to them, he still has to find another way to do it.

I do remember Steeljaw releasing those guys. They were from the scrapyard and were released, but Steeljaw had an easy chance to release all the cons, but only did those ones. He didn't fail to release them all, he chose to only release some of them. He will try again, but it will get harder to do so considering Team Bee keeps learning from his tries. He will try, but I just can't see some of them getting released again. That gets tiring with the same guys escaping and needing captured again. Most of those captured should stay captured. And you seem to be misinterpreting my quotes here in your responses just FYI. :MAXIMAL:

This is a description of episode 10: Portals:

Fixit's repairs to the GroundBridge go wrong, summoning two of the most dangerous Decepticons on the planet and banishing Bumblebee to another dimension.

Judging by the description above, are the two most dangerous Decepticons on the planet are mostly animal-based, since the majority of all RID Cons belong to this group, or a human-based such as, Soundwave? A lot of people assume that's him. That's just isn't true. Soundwave is done for Prime. He got trapped by Miko in Prime, lived in the Shadowzone. Therefore, he is most likely not to return in RID. But I'll be surprised if that's him!.

You do realize that the Shadowzone is accessible via a particular space bridge malfunction, right? It's not impossible for it to be Soundwave, who is still a Decepticon.

It is also possible that this would be the return of Soundwave and zombie Skyquake. Those 2 are in a far off dimension accessible from groundbridge malfunction. don't rule anything out yet, especially since the comics featured the fate of Predaking and Starscream as well as appearances by Bulkhead, Arcee and Magnus. Anything is possible. :MAXIMAL:

These animal based cons are just stylized. It can be anyone. And we have had regular robot modes characters like Overload and Fracture :MAXIMAL:

What ever happen to Octopunch, hammer strike, minitron, chop shop, malodor, verterbreak, ped, filch, headlock, night strike, scowl(dinosaur), simacore, terra shock, zizza, and all those minions? Are they all still locked up by the autobot? So many interesting characters that could be released. imagine a Scowl figure or a chop shop.

just watched episode 10 & WOW! amazing episode

seeing PRID Soundwave again was amazing(along with Lazerbeak) + the Phantom Zone! & the mention of Megatron(who apparently is on the other side of the galaxy....a future appearance maybe :-?

) makes you wonder what other PRID characters may turn up :-?

Starscream? Bulkhead? Smokescreen? Wheeljack?

By a long shot the best episode this season. No more whining about Optimus; no more swaths of incompetence; just a great 20-minute lot of enjoyment showing the team actually working well as a team to take down a legendary Decepticon in a way that doesn't feel contrived or convenient. And it feels a lot more like a followup to Prime than it ever has; when Soundwave was coming out of the portal, I just felt my smile getting wider and wider the more I recognized that vehicle mode. Man this was a treat.

Agreed, EP10 was an incredible episode! It goes to show just how crappy the cons we have now are. It takes forever for Steeljaw to make any real progress with Bumblebee and his team, then you have Soundwave who successfully trapped Bumblebee in another dimension and beat up the others in the space of like 2 minutes. Either way, it was awesome to see him again and in top form really. Also a nice touch with referencing Megatron (who I'd love to see come back for the season finale to help beat Steeljaw)

Agreed on episode 11. Favorite model of Minicon yet, I loved those guys! Also, not to sound like a certain uber-fan, but what the heck was Stockade supposed to be based on? It looked like either a packrat or a kangaroo

Agreed on episode 11. Favorite model of Minicon yet, I loved those guys! Also, not to sound like a certain uber-fan, but what the heck was Stockade supposed to be based on? It looked like either a packrat or a kangaroo

Going out on a limb, some kind of rodent. That thing was weird. And at first I thought he'd be Scatterspike too! :MAXIMAL:

I think this is the right place to put this... from tfwiki "In September 2015, Hasbro announced a second season of the show.[3] The first thirteen episodes of season 2 began screening on February 20, 2016, with a second thirteen-episode block set for release in fall 2016." Does anyone know if this is true? :-?

I'll look into it. The guy who added it tends to not post misinformation, but this has me skeptical. If it is wrong, I'm hoping he was just misinformed about it.

Just watched an interview with the hasbro team on youtube, where they confirmed that there is another block of episodes in the fall, so yes season 3 is coming. This also puts the one tweet about season 4 in a more believable light. Anyway, yeah more rid :DANCE:

So...if there are more episodes coming...wouldn't that be the second half of season 2, not season 3...

Also, I know we are not supposed top talk about episodes 10& 11 (even though they have aired in the UK), but episode 10 was pretty darn cool, and episode 11 features the return of another classic VA. Cant wait for the "mid season" finale next week.

So far, all official outlets have referred to season 2 as being 13 episodes and a movie. We'll have to wait and see what the official word is on if what is to come after the movie is considered the rest of season 2 or a new third season altogether.

A similar situation happened with My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic having only 13 episodes for its third season (due to the staff also working on the first Equestra Girls movie) while all of its other seasons, before and after, have had 26 episodes.

From Jose Lepoz's Instagram page we bring to you some concept art for one of our favorite regular Robots in Disguise characters: Grimlock! Now, we know what you will think when you take a peak at the images mirrored below, but before you get riled up about how Grimlock looked, take note of Lepoz's quote here:

Grimlock before Grimlock concept. He also had another name.

Take a peak at the images mirrored below and let us know in the comments section what you think of our favorite red Stegosaurus Green T-Rex Dinobot. And as always stay tuned to Seibertron.com for all your latest Transformers News and Galleries!

Didn't you hear what Hasbro just said during the interview with TFormers in the video clip that was posted recently? They said that Robots In Disguise is still far from over than previously thought, and that season 3 is coming this fall. Remember, there is no such thing as half season. Either the producers choose to air the season fully or officially cancel it. End of story! Which begs us one question, if Steeljaw is finally caught, will he return again for season 3, now that has been officially confirmed by Hasbro? And should Steeljaw gets killed in the same way as Megatronus did, will their be another Decepticon that will finally become his successor? Of course, that's not Megatron, since that he's officially done for the series.

If there is really season 3, will there be brand new Autobots that will have animal-robot modes and vehicle modes in the same way as the Decepticons did?

A half Season is defined as what Agents of Shield and Agent Carter have done for Marvel, in that a show has a Fall to early Winter block of programming, then by producer's choice stops on a mid season cliffhanger and takes an extended break for new Spring Shows and or seasonal events like Daytona and March Madness before resuming again in May as a continuation of the same plot. This does twnd to be a precursor to a show getting cut to 13ep full seasons, but the order is for 26 or however many. Usually, a Half Season has an entirely different show airing in its time slot, while a short hiatus is just a bunch of reruns of the same show

USA Network is also notorious for this. Makes shows very hard to follow cause you don't know when they will come back

psj333 I have you on ignore for a reason, and I would appreciate it if people would stop quoting his nonsensical ramblings.

The definition of a TV season is not as sharply defined as it once was, and every network seems to be following a different pattern. Ultimate Spider-Man Season 3 (subtitled Web-Warriors) was a total of 26 episodes, but aired over a 15 month period from August 2014 to October 2015. The rules of a TV season we all *think* apply are not in any way shape or form, uniform.

If you go on Amazon, several "full" seasons of TV programs are broken up as "different" seasons because what Amazon considers to be a "full" season is different than what the network considers.

All semantics aside, I'll wait until official word from Hasbro comes as to what the future holds.

What Amazon does with seasons is called "Immoral"

It probably has something to dovwith how they purchase the rights to episodes but to pass it to customers the way they have is vold.

The beast mode looks really cool; some kind of mash up between a stegosaurus and an anchylosaurus. Would be a good Snarl but I don't like the tail in 'bot mode. If they add Snarl to the show they should use that concept for the beast mode. ;)^

I've watched a few episodes of the show. I don't really care for it, but I'm not the target audience so I don't sweat it. I'd probably be more interested if they had Snarl, though. He was always my favorite Dinobot.
