No way, Hardtop?! Cybertron Hardtop was my first ever Transformers toy! I had him stand in as leader of my Decepticons until I got a proper Megatron, and head-canoned him into being a high-ranking and powerful member. As one of the line's toy-only characters, I figured he was forever destined to remain obscure. I can't believe he's finally getting some action, and that they've even retained his relationship with Swindle. That is some deep-core lore this show is getting into. I'm becoming increasingly excited for this show with every new thing they reveal about it!

Hadn't been paying to much attention to this show, but the trailer looks fun. will have to check this one out.

[SpaceEagle]

Looks like it'll be quite the fun show, especially for the younguns. Maybe I'll check it out when I can but I'm still more excited for the toys

[RodimusPrimeUkraine1]

So Hardtop is the purple swindle?

[Emerje]

Is Mandroid mind controlling the Decepticons? The way he's talking in this trailer makes it sound like it. I'm looking forward to this show more than I though I would.

I thoroughly enjoy hearing a human call Megatron "Megs".

I am loving what I am seeing with this Megatron. I am so excited to get more into him!

Also, Hardtop is such a deep cut and I love it so much.

[Sabrblade]

I feel like Hardtop is going to be this series's Prime Cliffjumper, a sacrificial lamb to be killed off early on for the sake of making the new villain seem intimidating, what with Hardtop's arm being part of the Mandroid build-a-figure in the toyline.

Please tell me which one was hardtop!

[X3ROhour]

Keeps getting better!
I am truly excited but trying to control my expectations.
But I am hopeful!

I'm sorry guys, but this kind of looks fun.

Megatron an Autobot, very interesting!
I saw a pink Arcee.

New transformers species Terrans, cool idea.

The cop mom is kinda hot and I would love her to be a cool team with Megatron.

I'm mildly excited for this.

"What about an autobots-decepticons tango?",they fight and dance to death to avoid the bullets TOGETHER.That can be the meaning:it références the prescence of Megatron with them.

The name of Ghost has been mentioned and not just in the leaked synopsis,the human alliance,there's nothing surprising about them except we don't exactly know what they do to captured cybertronians.

Megatron an Autobot, very interesting!

I don't think they're going all IDW on Megs and making him an Autobot. They just say he's not a Decepticon anymore. The logo on his chest is not an autobot logo, so maybe an non-aligned or Terran aligned faction or some other third path faction.

I just assumed it was Mandroid's logo, since it seems he's controlling the Decepticons and Megs mighta broke out of his control.

Optimus and Elita wear the same symbol. It's a tree with a or in it depending on who's wearing it.

So Hardtop is the purple swindle?

In Cybertron, Hardtop and Swindle are brothers. Hardtop is green and purple as opposed to Swindles beige and purple.

Oh! My poor internet connection heavily blurred that out for me
I saw 'Bee have a standard Autobot logo, I guess it probably is a "Terran" symbol.

It symbolise their alliance with humans and looks strangely sinister.The name is "Ghost".

I still don't understand the mind control theory.

As the article mentions, Megs is not an Autobot

[Ultra Markus]

the new symbol kind of ressembles this

HOLY SCRAP HARDTOP MY BELOVED! Loved that figure as a kid and still have him, the movie repaint and the swindle one in my collection still, always loved his look, and he's always my go to character for a Decepticon sniper character and I've considered him to be an honorary Combaticon or in some continuities who was supposed to be in Swindle's place until an untimely demise.

I am beyond stoaked to see him here, even if he doesn't really quite match up with his Cybertron design although his gun does, if they removed the ear things he'd look more on point but Hardtop is Hardtop and I hope he gets a good long role on the show-

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Not again! It's always the ones I'm most excited to see.

I would argue he might still be safe, the Mandroid BAF also includes Swindles arm for the left arm, so he might just scavenge damaged parts too, or dissect without killing ala Prime Breakdown in season 1

Or maybe they both get axed by Mandroid.
