Transformers: Cyberworld, WTF (Why The Face)

Posting this theory for posterity: If Galvatron turns out to actually be a reformatted Megatron, he wins the upgrade in a game.
Alternate take- Megatron is a pay-to-win'er and pays for a fancy new skin from the shop tab in the game interface

Episode 9, "Storm the Desert" (w/ Episode 8 attached at the end) just randomly went up today!

Their meme game remains on point. So is their game references. I'm familiar with Souls games enough to "see" stuff like the second phase and the telegraphed "area attacks", and other tropes of the current gaming meta to appreciate what they're doing here. And I'm totally down for it.

Yeah, the faces came out of nowhere. Maybe they farmed that scene out to another team, but everything else about the animation looks normal there. Very weird.

Heh, no one complained about Cyberverse Grimlock having a mouth.

Wow. You sure were bold enough to share that here for all eyes to see (and never unsee). 😆

I'll also say that our staff's meming of the thread title has stayed on point throughout the run thus far.

Have to admit something has to have a special little spark to keep us all engaged in this fashion :p

I also noticed how this episode really makes it clear that they made Scorponok a much more G1-esque purple than the bright blue that his toy is.

Aside from the faces, this is the most I've enjoyed a Transformers show in a long time. There's an end goal, but it's not clear what the characters are going to have to do to get there. Well, aside from winning more minigames, obviously. But Megatron is going to win some as well, and the Dinobots are back to doing their own thing. Progress is always going to be possible but never guaranteed.
