http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-new ... re-166850/

sketches are contained above of, among others Cyclonus and Highbrow, also an older Sari and the last four look a lot like Human forms for Prime, the Bee, Bulkhead, and Ratchet to me. The other thing I noticed is...either Zombie or badly killed Magnus

Anyway, enjoy.

(Also, guesses to the identity of the humans are just that they could also just be random humans.)

*Jaw drops instantly*

Early Thoughts:I am glad that we are getting more Episode plot Spoliers here,but there is still a vauge idea on how important the main plot would be.Episode 30,being the Final Season Premiere,three Autobots will come,and,if we remember,this is supposedly the Episode where Issac Sumdac will tell everyone about why Sari is a possible Technorganic Robot.If these three Autobots appear,does that mean that the Sari origin will be interfered by the Season's main plot?How important is that Origin story then?Does that mean that the Sari origin might spread out throughout the Episode,instead of absorbing all the information at once?

I also am curious about the main plot altogether.With those large Spoilers posted above we have a whole list of how many characters are there:

Autobots

Optimus Prime
BumbleBee
Ratchet
Bulkhead
Prowl
Arcee
Dinobots(Grimlock,Swoop,and Snarl)
Rodimus Prime
Red Alert
Ironhide
Brawn
Hot Shot
Ultra Magnus
Jazz
Sentinel Prime
Alpha Trion
Dai Atlas
Wreck-Gar(Pending)
Beachcomber(Pending)
Omega Supreme(Pending)
Blurr
Highbrow
Mainframe

With Decepticons

Megatron
Starscream
Lugnut
Blitzwing
Blackarachnia
Clones(Egomaniac,Suck-Up,Liar,Coward,Female,and now Dirge)
Constructicons(MixMaster and Scrapper,and now Dirtboss)
Waspinator
Soundwave(Pending)and his crew(Pending)
Shockwave(Longarm Prime)
Strika
Cyclonus
Blackout
Spittor
Oil Slick

With Neutral Characters

Lockdown
Swindle(Pending)

And Humans

S.U.V.(Pending)
Cancer
Sari Sumdac
Issac Sumdac
Captain Fanzone
The Witwicky Family(Spike,Sparkplug,Carly,Daniel,and now their new child)(Pending)

All this done in 13 Episodes causes me to be skeptical about how grand this Final Season may be.With the Spoilers we have recently,there will be at least a couple of fillers,followed by the Sari Sumdac Origin Story,followed by the main plot.With the main plot happening,there may be a major killoff about to happen,a few of our regular characters might have large development or not,whether first or second-person type of development.Many questions from the last Season still need to be answered,and more,are going to be questioned.Just how,just how are all these characters are going to fit in a 23-minute,Thirteen Episode Final Season?How far are we going to know them?How far will the Decepticon-Autobot war be as Epic as to their previous incarnations?How will the subplots end without having to waste any precious minute?

Tell me my good Animated audience....will this be the great Finale we'll be expecting?Will the writers actually be willing to write as great as G1 and Beast Wars?Are they going to be up par to them?

That we have to wait for in Spring.

They aren't random humans. The same guy just put a bit of a spoiler about a 2-parter episode involving those humans-- won't repeat it here.

Suffice it to say Soundwave is definitely coming back.

Oh, and the "unnamed" Autobot repair bot? That's Kickoff. I LOVE OBSCURE HOMAGES.

It's here!!!!!!

As I predicted,Transformers:Animated will premiere on March.

On YTV Canada,Season III will premiere at March 14th at 11:00 AM Eastern.

I'm not sure whether or not Cartoon Network will premiere it a week earlier,the same time,or a week later.But this confirmation is good news for us.

*marks her calendar*

EDIT:A friend of mine has said that the Cartoon Network will premiere Season III on March 20th....

It seems that YTV is doing a promotional thing for Transformers:Animated,showing two Episodes before confiming the real date.

For more information on YTVs date...go here(Scroll to the bottom)

In more news:

A good freind handed me a link in relation to the Epic Spoiler that I Posted a while ago....once again.Click At Your Own Risk

http://tformers.com/transformers-new-an ... /news.html

Meanwhile...we got some new Character Descriptions for Perceptor and Wheeljack.

Perceptor
Perceptor is a member of the Autobot Ministry of Science on Cybertron.One of his greatest achievements is the successful completion of Ultra Magnus' Project:Safeguard-the creation of the flying Autobots,Jetfire and Jetstorm.

Wheeljack
Wheeljack is a member of the Autobot Ministry of Science,and a part of the team responsible for creating the first flying Autobots,Jetfire and Jetstorm.

There is no hint in whether or not these two will have a large role,but will end up as minor characters...however,if they do,then will Jetfire and Jetstorm appear in Animated?Could be likely,but not certain.

Animated Season 3 is confirmed to be premiering in the U.S. on March 14th, as well-- at an 8 a.m. timeslot, premiering with a 1 1/2-hr movie, entitled "TransWarped". It's uncleared on whether this premiere movie counts towards the 13-episode count of Season 3.

Anyways, confirmed episode teasers and/or titles are as follows:

Saturday, March 14: "TransWarped" - As Sari and Sumdac deal with the fallout from her shocking discovery, the Autobots try to contact Cybertron to warn them of the traitor in their midst. Meanwhile, Megatron inadvertently stumbles upon a new plan to take over Cybertron, where an increasingly desperate Longarm attempts to cover his tracks.

Saturday, March 21: "Where is Thy Sting?" - A crazed Wasp finds his way to Earth to exact his revenge on Bumblebee... but he doesn't count on the Elite Guard following him.

Saturday, March 28 : "Five Servos of Doom" - Sentinel has incredible success capturing fugitive Decepticons, leading Prowl to suspect he's getting help.

Saturday, April 4: "Predacons Rising"-- No episode teaser yet, but this should be the one that the BW writers have written.

I was just about to post this news myself,Beastbot.

Also,in case it has not been posted earlier,Ratbat has been confirmed for Season 3.

http://www.transformersanimated.com/img ... at-001.jpg

According to the possible storylines,Sentinel unmasks Blackarachnia. PURE WIN!!!!!

Also,according to the leaked episode information,he is possibly a traitor.

Could this be a hint of Nemisis Prime?

What more can I say but...BRING ON THE PREDACONS!!!!

Well this is a good news for America and another attempt to wake me up earlier than ever.

Perfect.The Episodes look really good so far,so that is a total of six Episodes...if they will count the first three as part of the thirteen.

Can't wait for Reviewing them.

I believe I mentioned this on another forum but, I'm not too thrilled with Sentinel being revealed as a possible traitor. It just give presidence that if you don't like someone, then their evil and is that really what kids should believe in this day and age?

Other than that, it looks promising, especially when Sentinel finally unmasks BA. Sentinel's gonna try and kill Optimus, I just know it. LOL

I agree with everything in this post,WW.

Also,I happen to be a Sentinel fan,so I'm not too thrilled with the prospect of his possible dark side for more than one reason. Sure,he's a jerk,but making him evil is just adding insult to injury,and it makes the character look even worse. How will Hasbro expect to sell his figure if this turns out to be the case?

Of course,this only speculation. I hope we see BA's true face though...along with the long awaited guy fight. I've already waisted hours of my time long before this supposed spoiller,imagining what Sentinel's reaction would be both when he finds out BA's identity,and when he finaly gets a moment with Optimus afterwords.

Sentinel isn't a TRAITOR traitor.

And that's all I'm going to say about that, as any more would be spoilers.

Tor · Unread post by **Tor** » Sat Feb 28, 2009 10:31 pm

Perhaps...

Sentinel isn't traitor traitor because of Blackarachnia. People do crazy things when they are in love. hinthint. Just saying this as a possible plot.

Commercial for the "Transwarped" special on next Saturday! (And yes, Transwarped does count towards the 13 episode total, sadly-- so only 10 more episodes after this airs)
