Resized due to recent Botcon 2011 revelations After a year...
After a year... the toys will be out... Transformers Prime was announced last year and the toys were announced last February... Now the official release of the toys are moved to December.
I don't know what Hasbro got under their imagination hats but it kind of kills the series without the toys for o long. The series is already more than halfway the estimated 26 episodes... although international distribution (other than cable) is not clear yet... purists are hating it, although it got great reviews from non-tf TV reviewers and is nominated for an Emmy (or was Golden Globes?)...
I just wonder if they are waiting for the Dark of the Moon to subside a bit before they come out with the toys, but hopefully they pick up the series for a second season...
I'm interested on the toys but hopefully I don't lose interest before it comes out...

Now that's a confirmed schedule of toy release... hopefully it does include international release... I already like Starscreams toy even if it's bulky at the bottom... the engineers must have been scratching their heads trying to figure out the best way to depict these toys (other than the hard time the TF movies has been giving them...) Mostly deluxes... so we'll have to weigh it in for size accuracy if they will have other versions coming soon... but not too late because it's too long a wait for these toys to come out. My dreaded thought is, these toys will end up like the last of the TF Animated toys that made it in Japan but not the rest of the world... I prefer Bumblebee in Voyager with Starscream a Leader Class to keep the vehicle sizes accurate... Or Arcee in Scout Class, Bee Deluxe and Starscream Voyager...

6 more episodes for Season 1 with Season 2 coming this Nov. 28th (some information come late since The Hub is not doing so well, Episode 21 is shown in Canada)... not a very long wait but still way to long for the figures to come out... And a new menace is coming... Unicron? Or as Bulkhead mentioned, "The Fallen"... tformers.com/transformers-sdcc-2011-transformers-prime-preview/16267/news.htmlThe series is slated for 65 episodes which is comprised of 3 seasons so it's a good chance that will be seeing a lot more until 2013... If you still want more Transformers Prime... here's a hint... Bryan Tyler's Soundtrack is available online after Hasbro had it removed from his site... you just have to be resourceful to find it... ;D With no definitive idea on when these figures will actually hit the market another schedule is posted, this time for the deluxe Starscream... You must watch the Peaugh's review, because this is one toy that will surpass TF DotM Leader Class Ironhide in terms of articulation and transformation joints... it will make you think how Hasbro will top it off when they come out with Voyager and Leader Class figures, if they decided to come out with it... Oh don't worry about the series, there are already talks about the second season... tformers.com/transformers-prime-starscream-image-gallery/16321/news.html

Teaser for TF Prime... it's supposedly not going to be Unicron... because of the size, but din't Uni have a smaller version in another TF Universe? The body he uses when he wants to go around unnoticed... getting unleaded gas without paying perhaps... anyway enjoy... tformers.com/transformers-prime-teaser-for-season/16547/news.htmlPic of the big guy... tformers.com/transformers-prime-first-looks-at/16546/news.htmlOne Shall Rise 3-part Finale will post daily teaser images on Facebook... well probably have to watch the finale episode to know who the big guy really is... and pics of him will only be revealed after the episode is shown on The Hub... episode list and dates are listed below... Ep 24 One Shall Rise - Part 1 10/01/11 Ep 25 One Shall Rise - Part 2 10/08/11 Ep 26 One Shall Rise - Part 3 10/16/11

Based on the One Shall Fall episode the finale will feature Unicron as he is the one talking to Megatron via the dark energon in his chest. His mugshot in that episode however will not verify this fully as most of their facial and headgears were redesigned for the series... so unless they made a drastic change in the story I believe the villain is Unicron... And yes, I haven't seen the One Shall Rise episode as of this post.

To Post Or Not To Post, that is the question... Well, as long as Hasbro isn't taking it down yet, why not enjoy the episode... so here's... One Shall Rise Part 1 As I mentioned before, it would seem it is Unicron but not the size of a friggin' planet... he probably uses an alternate body to move around reminiscent of his TF Cybertron version by the looks in the video at 0:13:46 count. Unicron and Primus are not planet size in TF Prime, although they are ginormous than the rest of the Transformers. At the end of the video is a preview of Part 2 which shows how big Unicron really is... see you then... ;D

Why let it go to waste... here's One Shall Rise Part 2 Watch it as long as it's still around... Hasbro could take it down anytime soon... Spoiler Alert!- As those who watched Part 1 already know, Unicron uses incarnations of himself in smaller size... thus revealing his original planet size stays the same... - His existence is Earth's life force and waking him up (in full form) will mean doomsday for mankind... - Somehow Megs have something up his sleeves and he's bound to end the truce as soon as Unic... he he he either wait or from your own conclusion.... (Sadly this is partially similar to a story idea I had been writing which is in hiatus...)

Why let it go to waste... here's One Shall Rise Part 3 Watch it as long as it's still around... Hasbro could take it down anytime soon... This is actually a miscalculation from a Singapore station, airing the final episode 1 week before The Hub... the quality is not at par with the other videos but you can get a better version after this weekend....
