[hamosG1]

Very !COOL!

[JuryDutySummons]

Derp. There is an advertisement for this video ON this video.

[TheNewYorker7899]

thumbs up if transformers armada was your first and the best transformers experience EVER

[transformje]

The yellow guy is sparkplug

[screwinwithstuff24]

[TheRealBarnez]

haha!

0:35 "aaaand I'll just sit on your shoulder"

[gangrail]

that was pretty cool

[Xxprinceofpersia1xX]

esta muy bueno

[agindoof]

i have the optimus toy

[zakiemon]

Hm, I wonder why there are two versions of that toy. Mine has light gold on it, but yours has a darker gold color. I don't think it is age or anything because I have seen others like this.

[sten4sw]

@zakiemon Yeah, yours is the one one I've been looking for for a long time.

[ZKoftherebellion]

That was fantastic.

However, one thing I never got was how the fuck he manages to walk when his legs are well.....its fairly obvious. I had this figure at one point, not sure where it got to...

[Veiados]

I have this figure. Prime's robot mode is wicked but I hate his Super mode. The Trailer isn't at all...well, if you have this figure you'll know what I mean. It's just stupid and no where near as cool as it looks in the show. lol

[coldblood274]

you cant use "suicky pigs" that things from Invader Zim, Id notice that anywhere,

[sten4sw]

@coldblood274 I'm not anymore, this video is really old.

[ACSpeedDemon]

Haha! Thats pretty f**king cool!!!

[DarthSidious224]

dude great job.



[superrob1995]

that version of Optimus in my opinion was one of the better versions

[captainjjb84]

Cool. Armada was my like 3rd series o transformers I watched. The first two were Beasties and RID

[kalam518]

lol, love how bumblebee is attached to his ass!

[Biomaniac94]

The first Prime I ever got

[xmenhunter]

[yagamijase]

Why is Bumble Bee attached to his butt?

[Biomaniac94]

@yagamijase that's not Bumblebee, that's Primes minicon Sparkplug

[yagamijase]

@Biomaniac94 LoL Okay

[Jimbobman903]

[kisslord007]

[gh3legohero]

[CYBERDOODY]

[sten4sw]

@CYBERDOODY no, i mean, that if there was a second one, do you think you might be able to get it, and i'd buy that one?

[CYBERDOODY]

@sten4sw i only saw one and i brought it i have been wanting an armada prime for a while. go to an expo there is a chance they may have one.

[UrgedCRUSHER]

@sten4sw LETS GO TO MY ROOM PIG :P

[CYBERDOODY]

I brought the deluxe armada optimus yesterday for £6 at an expo in London. He is fanatastic. i also brought TFA swoop for £4 too.BARGAINS.

[sten4sw]

@CYBERDOODY whoa whoa whoa, was there another one there? the one without the trailer, and like a silver minicon or something? was there another one there? i might wanna buy it off of you... :D

[darkness71598]

[AnimeLovingOtaku]

Mine was also Armada, energon was good but the rest after that was shit except for the new movies

[Seesee971]

[JdbriggsTF]

Same here i grew up watching armada when i was born beast wars just ended

[LupettoRomanista1927]

what's the song a 0:01??

and 1:07

[pyrusworrier10]

omg i have that!!! but i lost the front part of the truck!!!!!!!!!!! i only got the back part now....

[LHvids97]

i started watching the armada series cuz thts what i grew up with and when the first movie came out i thought it was based off that... i didnt realize it started in 1982

[enasnI127]

ok, maybe i'm a bit older than most of you and i don't want to be impolite at all but: in my opinion armada and so on are not an evolution of transformers - they're a shame!

[stinkysnak7]

Mine was RID but I think Armada was the best out of the unicron triolgy

[catsoldier09]

i also watched armada when i was little and i even have the hotshot toy somewhere wait i know where all but one arm and the legs are and jolt

[094Anthony]

the first transformers i watch was g1 cause my uncle record one episode of the g1 and it was cool, until the rest of them came out and it not that bad but i was born in 1994.

[JakaUshi]

I grew up watching Beast Wars back in 1996.

[sahra9900]

geeky ppls haha u guys should get a life seriously

[stinkysnak7]

Yea sahra and maybe you should find something else better to do then put rude comments that no one wants

[TF2Fan101]

My first transformers experience was G1.

[ianisadouche]

Best Generation of Transformers was G1. I was only born in 92, but I've went back and watched the original and it's great. Ah...feel like a kid in the 70s.

Never watched transformers after Robots in Disguise, all the new CGI series were shit. Beast Wars was the only good CGI one -- my first transformers series, watched it when I was like 5...ah good times.

[YungReg88]

My first TF experience was Beast Wars and that's how I learned about Generation 1. Btw, I hate Beast Machines.

[legokratos]

my first experience was tf cybertron

[maikol0215]

SONG ?

6/5

[realstuffedbear]

my first transformers experience was transformers cybotron. my cousin told me about it so i watched it and i liked it

[llahsram555]

armada is amazing! FTW!

[alphabees]

[amartinez97]

[emiliozeldafan]

lol you got that right hehehe

[InfiniteWhiteAutobot]

Same here! Armada was always on Cartoon Network!

And then Beast Wars... Ugh...

[bdoggghomes]

i also grew up with armada in my opinion its one of the best transformers shows ever.

[dancecoolest]

that is so sick how do you do that

[mrkilla5091]

my first experience was in the 80's =)

G1 love it since then never stoped watching till now

[savrevolvers]

my first was robots in disguise

[MugenDramonX]

I grew up watching Armada too , then came Beast Wars ..

[snicko1108]

armada wuz my first to!

best series....  :D

[Keetoph]

i grew up watching cybertron with cyberkeys and all that

[joesheepy]

my first was armada...but ive somewhat changed to prefer g1 even thought the stories make no sense whatsoever

[joeyisLP]

my first was beast wars

[vjhy]

whats the song called?

[niloc85]

Its from the movie its the score. Steave Jablonsky - Autobots

[Thornyspikey]

me grew up watching teh armada series

[PhantomLoverZero]

amen to that!

[RandomGeoffness]

armada was my first expericance tooo!

[AlexM2800]

me too

[gazza836]

when i was 4 the first transformers was armada that was wot got me into it now im obssesed

[cortes2k]

Looks great!

[sonicmarron]

waw, amazing

[waffle1997]

i used to love staying up till 5a.m. to see this show

[OptimusPrime1100]

u used the tf movie music

[azncalvin3]

OMG!!! i have that optimus prime!!!!! but i can't seem to make him into the second big one...bummer!!!

[Rbmrm]

Who is taller, Armada prime or the new movie figure Prime?

[sten4sw]

Oh man, good question, but I don't wanna dig him out.

I would guess that the Super mode of Armada Prime is about 1/2-1 inch taller than the first movie prime. I don't have RotF Prime, so look at the comparison between him and 2007 Prime in some reviews and do the math from there. :D

[hockeyboy887]

soooooo awesome dude u rock

[StoreWar1]

My favorite Transformers series:D Oh, the good times :D:D Ty dude!

[MonsterJammeroo]

sweeet!

[hyperspears]

M-My Childhood.. i now feel like a kid

[GMCIronhide]

sweet man =]

[hockeyboy887]

awesome

[JNDuke47]

Dude, again you have changed my life. That was so amazing, love the little car too.

[Nightslash12345]

you should stop using music from the tf score

[sten4sw]

What? Why?

[Nightslash12345]

because WMG is going to sew youtube if they don't delete all videos with there music D:<

[2m0rrownevapromised]

which program type,and camera did you use??Im about to start making stop motions myself,and I just need the right help

[everybodylovesdonuts]

Did you make that on windows movie maker?

[sten4sw]

Nope, I used Adobe premier. I hate WMM but I may have to start using it soon... :(

[Soniloni10]

good

[CyberLance26]

Lol i really dont think you can decide if a show is good or not by only watching part of an episode.

With lots of shows you must see more than one episode to decide.

And Armada is in my opinion the best Transformers show with the best storys and character development.

[Nightslash12345]

well when i was a little kid i used to watch it all the time and i HATED IT and i still do the only reason i saw the transformers movie is because i wanted to see what bay did with it and now i love transformers but that's just my opinion

[CyberLance26]

Why did you watch it all the time if you hated it?

You only like TF because you liked the movie?

[Nightslash12345]

well i like all series except armada and the reason i watched it is because there was nothing els on besides some stuff my parents wouldn't let me watch

[CyberLance26]

Well if you actually tried to watch a couple of episodes maybe you will like it.

If you have only seen part of an episode you cant really like something.

[Nightslash12345]

yeah i will

[kenethgarcia]

great job!!!!

[everybodylovesdonuts]

That was sweet

[PrimeTF96]

my first real expeiriens was Robots in deskis when i could by toies

[Nightslash12345]

dang 200 pics taken wow i'm actually making a series and so far i've taken over 1,000 pics and i'm not even done with the first episode

[sten4sw]

WOW. 1,000 is not uncommon for the people who do, like, 28/frames per second, but I watched your videos, and you're not doing that. How long is this video gonna be?

[Nightslash12345]

overall about 14 mins

[Nightslash12345]

now i'm doing that because it looks AMAZING

[sten4sw]

doing what now? 24fps? i wouldn't recommend it, it's a lot of extra work. my man YRQRM0 does it, and it looks outstanding, but it seems unnecessary. I believe that if you make it fast enough to look smooth, then that's good enough for everyone else.

[Nightslash12345]

yeah

[uchihabro77]

i grew up watchin armada to

[makomangb]

that was the best optimus prime(armada) stop motion ever

[CowWorldProduction]

I'm sorry to hear Armada(possibly the series that flopped the worst) had to be your first Transformers experience...nothing like G1. Armada was too Power Rangers like.

[geejaycrazy]

G1 rules!

[sten4sw]

Indeed it does, my friend, indeed it does. I'm not saying that Armada was awesome. I'm saying that that's what got me started, and it will always have this sickeningly sweet nostalgic feeling for me.

[firebat128]

same here. Armada is what really got me started on it too! I was just slightly too young to have seen it myself as a kid :( I was born in 87

[bigcat1012]

armada is what got me started with transformers too

[Nightslash12345]

what got me started was the movie i watched robots in disguise but i was 2 young to buy any toys

[gaarakickassninja]

holy shhit!these sound affects were amazing!very nice

[Dant3x1986]

My first TransFormers Experience was the first generation =D

[Gerald360halowowness]

transformers was my first transformer exp too man

[cobraeater455]

me to

[legendkillerbsal]

dude this is so balla!

[Rocker2791]

I still have all of my Transformers toys. I have a crap load of Beast Wars ones.

[rockdrummer1]

i used to watch the G1 re-runs when i was in first grade when fox kids was in the mornings

[Hellblazer344]

BEAST WARS WUZ MY FIRST TF EXPIRIENCE

[HanyouRyuuKiaku]

Transformers: Robots in Disguise was mine

[TheBlackShinigami]

same here

[commanderchurch]

love the trailing smoke effect when he detached from the trailer...very creative

[JakaUshi]

Sten. My first TransFormers Experience was Beast Wars back in 1996.

[chasmozord]

Be careful with optimus arms when transform into super, they might break if you force the fold.

[jjerger1]

I used to have one of those. the back transformed automacly right? the little cars were fun too.

[sten4sw]

Yeah, the auto-transformation feature was really cool. But the motors were obnoxiously loud and annoying!

[jjerger1]

I also have an old dicepticon i forgot the name but he was the leader. He is a purple one that can transform into a car and a dragon. My best friend says it is worft $600 but I don't believe him. I have to make a video of it

[clayguru]

whered u get the transformer. i gotta get 1.

[19vampire94]

what song is that? in the beginin?

[sten4sw]

It is called "Autobots", from Transformers: The Score, by Steve Jablonsky. It's also the song that appears later, during Prime's transformation.

Please just read the credits, and video info first.

[wanellenwa]

optimus prime with spark club over load is sweet and good movie armada prime

[ultimate0extremist]

oh my god

i am amazed

i've never seen better stop motion

[sten4sw]

Wow!

Thanks a lot!!

[lxhinata]

fine *sigh*

... this one is fairly exelant

[AznDr4g00n]

Ok, Sparkplug is, of course, Prime's yellow minicon. His DESIGN was a HOMAGE to G1 Bumblebee.  That doesn't mean his personality must be.

[gmodfan32]

Thank You...... sten4sw a homage is sorta like a cameo. Look at his head it matches bumblebee. Doesnt mean that it is bumblebee. Its more like a reference

[sten4sw]

i diasgree. an homage is like a tribute to a past work, in a new work. Ex: Jazz grabbing, and moving, Brawl's tank barrel is an homage to Kupp doing the same thing in the 1986 movie.

A cameo is like when a director breifly appears in his own movie. and in the cartoon, Sparkplug doesn't look anything like Bumblebee. I think the closest thing to Bumblebee, in Armada, is Hot Shot...

[gmodfan32]

I agree with the homage part but if you look closly Hot Shot it not even an inch close maybe the color but thats about it. It stated on several websites that " Spark Plug (not to be confused with the father of Spike Witwicky) is the Mini-Con partner of Optimus Prime. He bears a striking resemblance to Bumblebee from the G1 series. " This was found on wikipedia and on a random fourm talking about mini cons. If you look at the image found on wiki you may notice the head is very similar.

[ssjparkerdude]

DUDE! that was awesome!

[Vachidra]

Nice work.

[Nemesisford]

awesome  wow

[jdpjrdude]

Why yellow car on optimus prime truck? Is it bumblebee?

[tehKOREANdude]

I think that's the minicon for prime...not posritive cuz I was never a hardcore armada fan but...i'm pretty sure

[sten4sw]

you're right. his name is Leader-1, but optimus calls him Sparkplug. and it is his mini-con.

[jdpjrdude]

interesting. optimus prime is like father to calls him a new name Sparkplug. Bumblebee must be son of Optimus Prime. LOL
