Cyberverse episode 10 "Maccadam's" on Hasbro's YouTube channel

Let’s be honest now, we all know who the Maccadam is referring to at the end

A King Dinosaur...... Must be Joey the Lemur.

I'm not so sure it is Grimlock. I'm sure that's who they're going to go in at finding, but something tells me king of the dinosaurs is more of a reference to a place or a sign that's going to point towards the ark. Either that or it's Grimlock trapped in an animatronic alt mode. He did say he is rather groggy and angry when he comes out of stasis so maybe somebody found them in assume he's just a robot.

At last, the best episode of the series so far makes it to YouTube.

An overpowered barman,'not sure it's useful.

I hope Grimlock come with someone else it would speed up this slug.

Given the hints, I would think that macadams is perfectly powered I mean Primes are pretty powerful (IDW fiction aside where everything is and always has been... Shockwaves fault)

The guy's been rumored to be one of the Thirteen since 2004. More recently that rumor has pegged him as Alchemist Prime, but remains a rumor despite his design in this show being very much based on Alchemist's design.

Does it depend on the particular continuity?

See I would have said in this continuity that his power set might be based off Vector Prime, given his knowledge of the future

I just want to say, the best part was Soundwave and the seekers dancing in the bar.

Sabrblade wrote:Does what now?

I believe he is referring to the true identity of MacCadam. (Does his identity depend on the continuity), to which I'd say yes. In the original Marvel UK I believe he was simply *just a bartender*, but recently he's been retconned to be a Prime (Alchemist?). Although going by the references to time, and him being able to help BB in his stored memories I thought he would have been Vector prime, but oh well.

Trying not to color this forum with too much negativity. But...That scene got an audible groan from both myself, AND my 12 year old son. It's not often we are on the same page but, let's just say, there are way more negatives to this series from my point of view than positives. Still, I've been a Transformers fan since day one, and I feel obligated to watch pretty much anything for completion sake. My son has been a fan for pretty much his entire life as well, but he's gotten to the age that if he doesn't like something, (i.e. this series), he simply wont watch it. Sometimes, I envy him.

Does Macadam's identity depend on the partcular continuity?

Maccadam is Maccadam. That's all that matters. Anything beyond that is officially supposed to be mystery, rumor, and/or "nudge nudge, wink wink".

I saw the last two épisode,it finally feel like something very important is happening,i hope it won't fall flat.I can say you can begin watching if you haven't alrady.

They get rid of her?Really?

New episode is on YouTube,

I feel like Slipstream should have sent the ship as far away from Windblade when she had the chance

No one mispronounces it in this episode.

Oh hum, just heard about this.

Y'all see this show's design for Deadlock:



Apparently it was based on a piece of fan art drawn by Guido Guidi, who made a retro-styled design of Deadlock based on the G1 cartoon design of Springer:



I'm doubting it was done with Guidi's consultation, as that very piece of fan art is the first image that comes up in a Google Image search for the G1 Transformer Deadlock:

Thanks to a heads up from Seibertronian sabrblade, we have word that the 11th episode of the Transformers: Cyberverse cartoon is now up on Youtube! This episode features some shakeup to the status quo of things, as Shockwave kicks Windblade out of Bumblebee's head and begins to impersonate her and lead him astray. Meanwhile, Windblade herself is dealing with some major seeker issues.

The episode also features a few pretty cool cameo appearances, including our very first look at Rack'N'Ruin in a non-comic book appearance!

Check out the episode below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

Nope, Windblade's still alive. She's the focus of the next episode

Also, it took us 12 episodes to see a human. That is a really long time. Sure, Beast Wars took a whole season (Was it Season 2 or 3 when we see Proto-humans?) And Beast Machines took all the way until Thrust's backstory, but this was pretty long.

Windblade will be back with Bee, she is the second main character after all.

Ta Sabrblade. You've made my wait that bit shorter

Teletraan x is on YouTube


SPOILER:He looks like Glados from portal

Or a probe from STARCRAFT,Bee has an electric sword like a zealot.Why not cyberpsychic abilities?Because ONLY Windblade will recieve them.

One sentence for this whole TV serie:"Bee play videogames while Windblade do all the hard work like a mother".Does the targeted audience is the single moms?That's child abuse by the way.I'm open to anything,plurialism would help.

EDIT
They already have psychic attacks,like in the duel beetween Starscream and Optimus.

PerfectVision wrote:Bee has an electric sword like a zealot.

It's not a sword, it's a stinger, as in a bee stinger. Because he's Bumblebee.

Um... How? They were pointing out that it's a Stinger. It's actually called a Stinger in one of the episodes.

Combined with the "probe" it really look like a zealot sword,the name don't change that.I remember someone comparing the Shockwave's quadripede to the dragoon.

Thanks to a heads up from Seibertronian Nathaniel Prime, we have word that the 12th episode of the Transformers: Cyberverse cartoon is now up on Hasbro's YouTube channel, Teletraan-X! This episode stars none other than Teletraan-X, a new character introduced into the series, who is some robot who's part of the Ark, Slipstream uses it as a trap for Windblade, hilarity ensues. So check out the episode below and tell us what you think in the Pub forums below!

The episode has aired in Canada and Cartoon Network for US airing, as well as the Cartoon Network mobile app and their website.

Check out the last episode "Sabotage," here.

I tried to watch this, turns out I'm "Not Crew"

I apologize in advance if this question has already discussed, but I am very frustrated as an older long time fan and collector. Why is Hasbro recently ONLY releasing 10 minute Transformers series, instead of the original format was full 30 minure episodes? I know Hasbro is in the business of selling toys, but the 10 minutes does not in my opinion, does not lend to solid storytelling. Will the next Transformer series War for Cybertron: Seize also be just 10 minute episodes?

the 11 minute episode format is the continuation of an experiment by the looks of it from Machinima's cartoon, although the 11 minute episodes here are actually working out pretty well. A lot better than most really.

there hasn't been any word as far as I know of a War For Cybertron: Siege cartoon. This and Rescue Bots Academy are the only 2 TV series in discussion right now

Hello! Welcome to the Boards!

As said above, Siege iis not as far as we know getting a cartoon, this is a subtitle to a Collectors and Kids toyline. Although there might be some connective media down the road, of IDW releases a comic series or a short Machinoma style cartoon websries.

The 10 minite Episode format is nothing new, the Looney Tunes ran in that style decades ago. Its a format being advocated more and more by the TV channels for some reason, although I believe Cybervers is still being put out as a 22mimute block as 2 episodes. (Half hour time slot= 22. Minutes of show and 8 minutes of commercials). One of the supposed claim for the demand is to make things more consumable for kids with "short attention spans" (which I doubt) or more likely more streamable for kids on the go. Mom/Dad can pop in a 10 minute cartoon for the drive to school/BabySitter/Practice, and its over by the time they get there. Hasbro is in this case catering to their market (the tv execs buying the episodes to show) by making the 10 minute episodes channels want rather than the 22 minute episodes we are used to in the action cartoon genre.

Remember those classic 30 minute episodes were only 22 minutes without adds, so half of 22 is 11. The reason why they are 11 minutes is because CN reasons that kids are dumb, so they write to that level of competency mostly with mind numbing comedies that kids can only handle 11 minuets at a time, before their brain explodes, or they lose interest.

This unfortunately doesn't work well for Transformers, even a kid friendly version such as Cyberverse, because you can very clearly tell many of the stories are cut into 2 parts (meant to be full 22 minute episodes). Also there is a paradigm shift going on. Kids are watching media more on their mobile devices now, than actually on cable or satellite TV. Cyberverse airs only one single time per week, some ungodly time on Saturday morning before most of the world is awake, while Teen Titans Go! plays in 3-4 hour blocks!! (not kidding).

In the past this was basically a death sentence for any other decent TV show, but if enough kids watch Transformers on their devices it may get picked up for another season, if not, it will go away and be a mere footnote if anything, in animation history.

I'd wear that as a badge of honor

It's good to be back. I haven't been here for while.


Also I'm glad I'm not the only one who wish they go to the 22 mintue mark. Some shows don't do well with the 11 mintue timeframe.

"Matrix of Leadership" is up on YouTube:

Not in CYBERVERSE if you count the magical helix of Windblade,kind of similar.

Thanks to a heads up from Seibertronian Sabrblade, we have news that the lucky number 13th episode of Transformers: Cyberverse is now on Hasbro's Youtube channel! The episode, titled "Matrix of Leadership", follows Bumblebee as he looks back at Optimus Prime and what has made him a great leader as well as a teacher to the young scout. The episode features Bumblebee and Teletraan X for the most part, with some more screen time in the past for characters like Ratchet and Starscream, along with the first Cyberverse appearance of Alpha Trion!

Check out the new episode below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

Just got caught up, last one I saw before today was Shadow Striker.

10 and 11 were awesome episodes, deserve some kind of award, episode 12 fell a bit out, and 13 I hope leads into something bigger, Maccadam's is my favorite of this series so far though.

Seeing how evil Shockwave's altered idea of Bumblebee's past was, is one of the most traumatizing things I've seen in a show for kids this young

It would be like if Rescue Bots suddenly had Batman Beyond level stuff in it.

I was kinda looking forward to this show, I wasn't expecting it to be THIS good. Wow. The show started out average and now is developing more and more, and I really enjoy it.
