The toys had some good parts. They also had Side Swipe.

I mean, still addicted to minicons...

Energon and Cybertron WERE boring... and Starscream was just messed up in those shows....

a toyline searching for a story

Eh. It had a few ideas that could've been interesting. They just never went anywhere because it was easier to have Megatron brainwash everyone.

Energon's biggest problem is that it was made.

remember when Energon had to switch animation styles because their CGI models were completely incapable of expressing emotions ?

And what was done to Demolisher to a lesser extent.

Energon's biggest problem is what it did to Starscream.

I mean, they took all of that and the series is still dull enough to use as a sleep aid, so....

It's a food source, a weapon and so unstable that looking at it funny makes it explode. If energon is boring, blame the writers not the element.

Energon's big problem is that it's boring.

Double post ignore.

Energon was the worst of the lot.

"I know I can't catch you.... but I can... trap you...!"

They dubbed reaction shots and running scenes in the first two UT shows with "huh?" and grunts. very annoying.

Watch it in Japanese with English subs. Karyuudo did all that work for us so that we could.

I tried... but it just wasn't that good. The comics were better.

I didn't even watch Armada when it originally aired.

Anyone watch Armada anymore ._.

bain

UBI is coming.

I can just HEAR his screechy G1 voice saying that....

*Dies laughing* XDDDDDD

Megatron's coupon has failed! Now I, Starscream, shall speak to your manager!

(i just want to make jokes excuse my doing)

ITS STARSCREAM.... AND HIS CLONES

And there was no one there when I started!

I swear, I'm in line to use a coupon, there is something wrong with said coupon, and suddenly I'm holding up a line of 3 or 4 people

Ha! Talk about getting away with something!

Carnivac was still an evil Decepticon at heart, and no one shot him in the back for it.

*stares at the light switch* .... I see what you did there

*hands llittleautobot1218 a light switch* There you go.

I feel a need to lighten up the mood....

Shockwave did it.

I'm not in the US and at least some of the episodes seem to work for me. I don't know the actual list of places it's available, though.

Unfortunately It seems Cyberverse is only available in the US on YouTube.

Yes, and its ongoing.

Cyberverse is already officially uploaded to YouTube.

Spin Master is abridging current episodes of Bakugan Armored Alliance and posting the result on YouTube. Maybe Hasbro does that someday too.

I see... :/

Within the US anyway. Those channels aren't easy or cheap to access in other countries, and their website often region lock content. Tubi is the only good thing on that list: largely identical (but not perfectly so. Damnit. I wanna watch COPS.) country to country and free.

So yeah, Hasbro is using plenty of venues to spread exposure of their brands

Starz currently licenses Transformers G1 and the GI Joe movie (as well as MLP specials). Netflix has more current series available.

Study shows: Holders of the title "world's oldest person" have a severely increased risk of dying.

Tubi TV and Youtube both host various Hasbro cartoons. Both are freely accessed and ad supported. Any basic TV package (barring straight antenna) includes channels like USA Network, SyFy and FX, all of which regularly air the films from Transformers and GI Joe.

I dunno what to tell you, media might be changing slowly, but at least it's still accessible. Even the folks that DON'T get one of the streaming services can watch it on the company website. It's a vehicle for the toy line after all, they need to make an effort to make it as consumable as possible.

Well. Thats said, then.... I guess...

As long as the the cartoons are profitable, then they'll make more. The media it's shown on is completely irrelevant. I say that as a guy whose earliest surviving memory is a big red truck turning into a big red robot.
