I didn't like this show very much at first. But now that I think of it, its not as bad as RID or Energon was. Besides, it was more watchable and tolerable than both. So I'll cut this show some slack.
this was the first on i grew up with sigh and when cartoon network was good can anyone tell me if you think this is better or if g1 is? if i should go watch it
@flameheat1000 As soon as Armada was done, I went out and bought all of G1 and never regretted it. The DVDs are a lot cheaper now--I say go for it, especially if you enjoy campy things. As far as 80s cartoons go, it's a gem, though it's hard to say if it's "better." It's more a matter of preference.
god remember when toonami was around and they played transformers at least 6 times a day?......even better remember when the toys were this awesome?...
@iAmBlazerzz we all miss Toonami man....even at my age i want it back...BAD!...it would give me a reason to keep my cable/satalite/whatever the hell i have
@BrowniePunch xD I remember coming home from school and running through the yard up the steps through the house and frantically turning on the tv just to watch this show, I was addicted to this.
@J88Wolf not suprised befor energon the show was amazing and detailed then once the attempted the 3d-2d crossover and megatrons indecisive vehical modeit started going down a slope cybertron made it more even but armada was going straight up never again will transformers be this amazing
So let's see, ten minutes in, and aside from the brief intro, no transformers yet. So people can officially shut it about the movies having too much time on the human characters right?
2:01-2:04 Oh hey it's the Ark crashing on the moon from "Dark Of The Moon." I'm confident the similarities are mere coincidence, and that that one scene wasn't inspired by this.
I'm in seventh grade now! I'm watching this for the first time and it gives me hope that I will meet a 2 story alien robot. Particularly Bumblebee. I'm a girl, not a boy, but still. It gives me hope.
thanks for posting the armada series dude. I remember looking at this during elementary school. Its a hell lot better than the shit Michael Bay directed.
MY 7th grade was nowhere near as lucky as this... oh wait, got my first lap dance in the girls bathroom... so lets see... get to see robots... or get girls... is it bad I can't decide which is better? lol
i just finished whole series of tf g1 and it got me sad, because i love g1 and i want more of it :) they should make g1 continued, same char, same, look., same humans, and even quintessons if they live... lol
if they always have a cartoon to match a toyline ...then i wish they made a new g1 style cartoon for the henkei,united,rts,masterpiece tfs be amazing to see beautiful anime artwork in hd of the classic designs in full animation even if for just a louzy 12 episodes at least just like what madhouse did with the marvel animes
@shrederman38 these were the ones i have seen the one i havnt seen were under "everything else" because i have no opinion on those.notice the key words "that ive seen"
@dhgfkj1 You aren't getting the point of my comment. My point was that Energon SUCKED ASS, and if you put armada, beast wars, and animated behind it, you have one F**KED UP opinion!
@shrederman38 sure the animation in energon sucked, but the soryline was good and didnt have a bunch of fuckups like cybertron, it made sense and it was in my opinion the best of the unicron trilogy because the story was pretty much better then the rest unicron. and if you think my opinion is retarded keep it to yourself.
@dhgfkj1 G1 is best, but Beast Wars was FAR from a "fail." It had likable characters, an original and interesting story, and was able to remain a children's show without being too childish for older viewers. In fact, Beast Wars was a huge pile of WIN!
@shrederman38 I liked beast war's concept but I have never like it's CG.... Beast Wars II and Neo (japan exclusive shows) sucked really bad... And Beast Machines was a fail.
@S0ryiu Remember, this was the very early days of CGI. Beats Wars was one of the first shows to use solely CGI, so of course its not going to look perfect. However, I think the well-done writing, witty dialogue and good characterization more than make up for the imperfect technology. As for the exclusively Japanese shows, I haven't seen them, and I never got interested enough in beast machines to finish it.
@shrederman38 Actually it was low budget work even for 1992. By that time flims had begun using CG for a while. Hell, the animation is on par with that of Captain Power and CP was amde in 87. I mean, just one year after BW started we had Jurrassic Park with it's photorealistic GC raptors.
@S0ryiu There is a big difference between a Hollywood movie and a tv show. You can't set the same bar for something that has to be produced weekly and something that took years to produce. Also, the CGI in Jurassic Park was cutting edge for the time, another reason you can't fairly compare the two.
I'll admit the first season sucked on toast, but after the introduction of characters like Weeljack, Armada did finally started to get in its element, characterisation. Armada has some of the best actual character developement next to Animated and the new one, transformers Prime. Especially Starscream.
now this is the 1 that got me hooked on this hole transformers fanatic series thin man i miss this show n @BRRGames u where rit the fat 1 does sound like eddy just alittle bit
n i like how the minicons where more focused on on this series then all the other (at least the 1s that ive seen) series put 2gether
