The physical pain I felt when Lita said she thought Robots was a Dreamworks movie. Bluesky Studios is the most tragic animation studio to have ever existed. TwT

[@lalalita____]

Bluesky, baby, I'm so sorry. When I tell you I writhed in pain when I googled the studio after we finished recording... HUGE L. Could not for the life of me recall the name on the spot. Tossed out Dreamworks on the 0.01% chance but knew it didn't sound right. My agony is infinite, I assure you. ;A;

@@lalalita____ if it’s any consolation, you are not the first and likely won’t be the last! The tragic nature I mentioned was how in life it was always mistaken for Disney, Dreamworks, or Pixar. Then its ultimate fate was to the borg-esque absorbed by Disney and dissolved. TwT I did very much appreciate that you kept bringing it up so much, though! Classic misconception aside, it brought a smile to my face. Especially when you remembers Bigwell and Cappie’s names! If I ever make my own Elita design, you’d better believe I’ll be taking some cues from Cappie now.

I do appreciate that Eltia One is getting more my favorite design is G1, Animated, and EarthSpark.

I want a 63 universe where it's Elita Prime vs.Megatronia and Orion Pax leads a plucky underground team of rebels on occupied Cybertron. And Starscream is hypermasculine, devoted to Megatronia and seldom.speaks, but when he does, his voice is super deep.

[@battletrapvsIronhidestudiosand]

My favorite Elita-1 design is earthspark

[@haydenhowell9277]

Ive seen someone call power of the primes elita "orthia prime" And honestly elita being a prime would be cool. Like a "what if" situation and she'd take the mantle of being a prime if optimus died

[@sdm47]

Elita one is the mouthpiece for one of my favorite quotes in the franchise “you survived, therefore you did not fail” If that quote isn’t one of the tiers I’m gonna lose it

[@sdm47]

Well, at least it appeared in the video

[@scatterbrain8764]

So, Elita in Transformers One is being voiced by Scarlet Johansson, an actress who famously played a character named after a spider? Given her arc in Transformers Animated, that is a really weird coincidence.

[@TitanJonkler]

So true Also Optimus in Transformers One is being voiced by Chris Hemsworth who plays a noble warrior that got sent to earth and wields an axe then goes after the head.

[@alfa1134]

I actually like the Legacy Elita-1 figure, mainly because she actually transforms into a car, and those pauldrons can moved in different ways so that she's not pulling a Minerva. Also, I don't know why people are complaining about the mold being reused three times; we actually got a car-mode Elita that's not hampered by a gimmick, Minerva just kills it with that look, and they did plent of retooling to make it work for Strongarm.

[@Cliffjumper_prime101]

But if you remember the cut scene in transformers prime on the episode when ratchets on synthetic energon the cut scine has ratchet has him scolding optimus prime for elitas death so isnt she dead?

So far, my favorite Elita-1 design has to be the one from Earthspark! It appeals to me very much ❤🩷!

[@wMTF2]

Awesome video. I'm now stuck between her and Arcee as my favourite female Transformer. Loved hearing Lita's joy over EarthSpark Elita One, and it's making me want to check out EarthSpark. Just out of curiosity, what is your opinion on the Elita One 1-Step Flip toy (aka the only other Transformers EarthSpark toy made of her)?

[@Convoy2005SPIH]

41:10 all right comedian cam we have finally received the trailer. We know how Elita one looks like time to make that five minute skit with her and you good friend now

[@juanbisonosuero3650]

I really like a little one I think she's a very cool character I wish they give her more stuff to do hopefully transformers 1 will finally be her time to shine songs malls of her appearances and with her being lost in between all the characters for example arts Park doesn't really give her a solo episode which is okay for someone like Optimus for example put elita doesn't get that much to do what are the and being a maybe their teacher

I think tfa Elita1 was designed to resemble the original Sentinel Prime. And i think they did that because tfa Sentinel Prime doesn't resemble his original at all. Weirded me the fuck out when i finally saw his original and he's yellow.

[@milkiassamuel780]

I really like Elita One's designs in G1, EarthsSpark, IDW, Animated and dope Elita's fan art design for TFP. I especially really loved how TF: Animated depicted Elita as a tragic villain being left behind and reimagined as Black Arachnia, which I think was a really cool idea that sort of gave Optimus his own Catwoman love interest, someone who has good in them but still can't be trusted, I just wish we could've seen more of her.

[@TheDaxter11]

2015 RiD looks like it has the best Elita head that keeps some design queues from G1 but dumps the rest of the ugliness of that head design and we can't even see the full design because of that giant red stamp over the card. Second best Elita head design is Siege. Head design aside, I think the jet mode Swolita One is probably my favourite. Earthspark is good (Again minus head design) but I don't like the pink face or the brighter pink on the limbs. The pink on the vehicle kibble is fine but the pink everywhere else instead of silver or some other colour between light grey and darker grey is just overkill. Edit: Oh hey, that Evergreen design has actually has a good head design too. That makes 3.

[@optimalhazza]

Has anyone else notice that 2007 movie Elita-1 toy at 12:50 (repaint of Energon Arcee), kinda looks like Rise of the Beasts Arcee?

[@redlion-paladin4609]

That's literally the first thing I said when it showed up in the video

[@Aaron-vf4fu]

When I first saw Arcee's ROTB design I knew I had seen it fifteen years earlier at Target, copied that shit damn near 1:1 they did

[@anime-senpai-san]

I think we really missed out on Elita on Tf Prime and Tf Rid, she might have been originally cast in there but I think (correct me if I'm wrong) Tf Rid season 5 got canceled and so we never got to see her or even Megatron for that matter in the show. And for Tf Prime she might have been mentioned in it when Ratchet was on synthetic energon and said to Optimus that he couldn't save her, and Optimus in turn punched Ratchet. But the people working on it decided to scrap that interaction because they thought that scene didn't embody Optimus. And I love Elita so much anything would have been fine. The day I found out Optimus has a girlfriend/sparkmate I became obsessed especially when I found out about her, I was sad to find out how little she's actually been in the franchise. But I hope that there will be more of her.

I punched the notif so fast! I've enjoyed this series so much, especially with the new re-ranking series and the hilarious editing! I put up Starscream for the next re-ranking poll!

[@renji90998]

In Animated, there was going an episode where Optimus travels back in time to stop Elita from Becoming Blackarachnia. However, changing the past results in Optimus, somehow, being the one that got infected. Becoming Arachnus Prime. Though I guess he technically would have been Tarantulus. Elita would be Elita Prime, and would look a bit more like her past incarnations. Mainly having her signature helmet look.

[@DelilahFranco-lc6rz]

I think that Elita-1 Transformers Animated version just doesn't feel like Elita to me, I guess the design just wanted to bring back the Ariel version, but it gets confusing based off the design, and the color is off but I'm glad they tried to do something new, Elita-1 is my top favorite character next to Starscream ❤❤

[@allsuper9268]

Elita really should be a Prime.

[@VaughnFuller]

why does in most shows make it sound like elida

[@harrishyatt6283]

elita-1 was gonna appear in transformers prime as a flashback by getting killed by megatron but it was cut

[@blueraccoon1088]

21:21 funny you say that cam ultra covered a deleted scene in episode synthesis ratchet was going to break prime's stoickism but they cut that bc prime doesn't show feeling. He was going to clean docbot's clock. That should have been a scene to show optimus can show emotion. I have respect to PC but it's like they had Tom selleck as prime

[@gideonhorwitz9434]

38:03 honesty yeah having Elita 1 would have completed the whole team prime family dynamic Optimius the wise stoic father figure that everyone wants to be around but can be aloof at times complimented by Elita the more down to earth mother figure able to bring the team together with Arcee bulkhead and bumble bee the routy siblings and Ratchet the grumpy Uncle

[@SilverStreak9841uoattob]

I don't know if anyone else has this feeling, but when I first saw Animated Elita, I thought she was a female Bumblebee or Bumblebee's sister. It's mostly due to them being very similar in color.

[@beastmaster0934]

That’s what I honestly liked about Animated’s version of Elita. They made her design unique compared to the one that came before her.

Amazing video as always! Sorry for giving you a hard time for not making the video sooner. I do like how you have a fan of a character as a guest in your videos giving their opinions on the designs. I honestly didn’t care much for Elita-1 up until EarthSpark where they gave her the best design ever! It’s one of my favorite designs in the series and I like what they did with Elita-1 in the series by making her the second-in-command of the Autobots and Cissy Jones’ portrayal of Elita-1 also helps out my interest in Elita-1. Some of my other favorite Elita-1 designs are the Evergreen, Power of the Primes render, and the Prime concept art. I’m excited to hear Scarlett as Elita-1 in Transformers: One!

[@tomoliver4756]

To me, all of the Elita One designs on the top tier are absolutely amazing in my opinion. Also I am SO happy that the fan made Prime design made it to the list, absolutely perfect for the show if she was ever in it. Love the Animated design too.
