Yay surprise.

The link should supposedly take you right to it, but I had to scroll down and find it.

It's also on YouTube:

Unfortunately, this is just horribly animated, drawn, and narrated. The story's bad and doesn't give us anything new or remotely interesting, it's a shoddy mish-mash of Classics and G1 designs, and overall it just sucks. Prime's voice isn't just horribly inappropriate, but it's not even that well done. Bleah!

Uh. Okay then. Thanks, Hasbro! It's MTMTE! Again! Please to be making cooler episodes in future.

The Armada adaptation of the little prequel comic to the Dreamwave series was considerably neater. :/

Horrible or not, at least Classics/Universe is getting a little attention. Now if only they'd do a good cartoon... of course, all the voices would be wrong, and that would irk me, so I still wouldn't like it. :P

It is not that bad.

Is it great? No.

But, I am happy to see avoids mention of Unicron and such. I will give it points, despite the voice-acting and animation, just for that.

-notes that none of those drivers reacted to the Ark crashing right next to the highway.

I'm more annoyed by the inconsistancy that's all throughout it than I am at anything else. And...well, the horrible lack of actual animation.

I think Hasbro has been burnt out on Unicron ever since Cybertron. Unfortunately, I guess Furman isn't yet.

I think Hasbro is going for a sort of "general" over-view of TF, rather than trying present a specific variant of TF.

I think Furman is just burnt out, and has been since '03 or '04. And, now, IDW is burnt out on him.

This has promise.

The promise to suck hard!

I'm kidding, but only just. It's not really that well executed, it has charm but it's almost primitive to the point of laughter. I dunno, there's something about this that says "we're not there yet".

I wonder if we are going to get another episode it has been a while but I really don't care because I didn't enjoy this.

I doubt it, since it looks like this was done to promote Classics/Universe, and that's over now, so.
