As someone who is a big fan of tfa character design and artstyle I had a lot of fun watching this video. For me the stylization of the show is amazing, but there are many cases of it going a tad too far, especially with more masculine and feminie designs. But while the executions may vary, I think tfa's way of dealing with kibble is quite commendable. Considering that instead of ignoring or removing it from character designs (leading to worse toys), the kibble was not only acknowledged, but also integrated to create a cohesive whole.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I'm glad that I didn't put you off with this one. A lot of these roasts I do get people kind of mad, they just can't get behind laughing at something they enjoy.

Sentinel Prime looks like Judge Dredd. Also, every single detail you mention about this series’ design philosophy is why *this* is the one TF series called “Animated.” Seriously, if you lined up the character sheets for every series, starting with Sunbow right on down through RoosterTeeth and today, TFA would definitely stand out as the one series to earn the moniker of Animated. I’m pretty confident that a “family feud” style survey of normies would produce the same result like 85/100.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I don't feel the same way. I don't think this looks particularly Animated, it looks way more Vintage comic to me. Apparently the working title for it was Transformers Hero's and I like that one SOOOOO much better it fits it perfectly.

[@josiaharaki7310]

Fun fact. Wyatt actually didn't like the concept of Primus and explicitly omitted him from the timeline. This was explained in universe by an "Ask Vector Prime" To quote TFWiki: "The entire cluster is affected by a higher-than-normal interference wave range of 8.7 generated by the non-linear WY-att pulse function, effectively barring multiversal singularities from the universes of this cluster. In practice, this means that Malgus streams have no Primus and a non-singularity Unicron although a Church of Primus has nonetheless sprung up." Other neat things about it include ot running a century ahead of other continuities and it having at some point been visited by creatures from the ben 10 universe.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

How exactly does a Concept Artist Omit a character from a story? Why does it being in the future make it more likely that Ben 10 Happened to it? Ben 10 was set in like 2006.

[@josiaharaki7310]

​@@PerspectiveEndIt's not the fact it's set in the future that makes some sort of transdimensional contact likely. It's the fact Wyatt liked to leave all sorts of easter eggs for his other shows in the one he was working on, so multiple Transformers Animated weapons, such as lockdown's hook and Grimlock's sword can be seen in the background of Omniverse, while some Ben 10 Aliens appear in Transformers media. TFWiki: Vector Prime speculated that Ben 10's universe, located somewhere beyond the multiverse, may have interacted with a Malgus Cluster universe at some point, allowing the alien bounty hunter Khyber to collect Cybertronian artifacts. Conversely, species from Ben 10's universe can occasionally be found within the Transformers Multiverse. The same page then has this in the notes: The reason Primus doesn't exist in this universal cluster is because Derrick J. Wyatt didn't like Primus. (I'm not sure how he got to make that call either, but he appears to have been the resident mega-fan of the Transformers animated team, so maybe he pulled some strings?)

I think soundwave's design is pretty good. Unlike g1(which is cassete player), he actually have any subwoofers(4), strong muscles(he built himself, he is handyman, he deserved that), neon blue stripes because he is futuristic like Tron(same applies for Blur), and a little bit of gold to represent retro-futuristic style of robots like dinobots, and to show that it is creation of Megatron(just like dinobots). Not to mention his altmode. Anyway it's better than prime's Soundwave, with his thinest and poorest excuse for hands, which should be gone long time ago if it wasn't magic cybertronian material, and without face like no face dolls because someone thinks it "sucks souls" or something.

Is it wrong to ship the earth/allspark fragment transformers with normal ones since they are obviously completely different ages, or does it depend on how they are characterized. For example wreak gar is characterized as a child, where the constructicons and soundwave obviously aren’t

[@PerspectiveEnd]

That's a really difficult question. They aren't human, so it's hard to say what emotional maturity is like for them, when it happens, is emotional and mental maturity linked, is it different for different individuals, and do they process emotional harm the same way we do. I'd say it depends on the apparent Maturity of the individual in question.

If anything I’d guess they gave prowl the colour scheme of the California highway patrol because they didn’t want prowl’s white to clash with ratchet’s white? It feels like after the unicron trilogy Hasbro had this obsession with making sure that no one autobot has the same colours as another autobot, one of the reasons I think Grimlock in RiD was green

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I never noticed that about Hasbro after the UT, are you sure they try to do that? And that could make sense, but I don't know I think prowls white was a LOT more Striking than Ratchets.

Damn that roast of Animated Soundwave was a bit difficult to sit through but dammit if you don't have a lot of valid points.

Derrick designed so many characters that he still drew new ones after the show ended. So yeah, tackling them all at once definitely isn’t a good idea. Also, what is with the upper thighs of some of the characters? Like on Optimus. They look weirdly stretched and deformed out in their default stances.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah the legs can get super weird. I think it's cause of the lack of robo detail, it's just a human thigh in a body suit so it's kind of featureless.
