So, when will we see him as a prime?
Unless by some miracle they bring him back for the end of RiD and speed through his ascension in the span of one made-for-TV movie, he's never coming back.
>>84426622
RiD is really Prime's sequel? There's nothing of prime in RiD except for the dead optimus and Bumblebee saying that he fought on earth in the past
>>84424689
He is leading a counterrevolutionary force on Cybertron, executing political enemies of the Autobots in an attempt to remove the neutral presence that is plaguing the society from being able to function correctly.

Season 2 brings back Ratchet, Soundwave, and Laserbeak.
Its over now, and there are conflicting reports as to whether theres going to be a season 3 or a finale movie, a la Predacons Rising.
>>84427265
Fuck this, I want to know if starscream is still alive and what megatron is doing with his life now the he isn't evil anymore
>>84427354
Starscream is dead. So there might be a ghost floating around, but isn't an active presence.
Megatron is a space hobo.
>>84427354
Starscreams probably predacon chow and Megatrons either a hermit or joined some space religion as a monk to find inner peace
>>84427433
Starscream has infinite plot armor, there's now way he's dead
Is there any plans to do anything with the Aligned Universe after RID?
>>84428111
If there are, they haven't announced it.
>>84428122
Makes sense. They do kinda view it as a failure. There were element of Prime I liked like Jeffery Combs as Ratchet and Steve Blum as Starsctream. But Peter Cullen just sounded bored most of the time. How do you make Optimus Prime boring?
>>84428255
You give him nothing but inspirational or commanding dialogue. Or lines from the 86 movie.
Remember when G1 Prime used to crack jokes? Or when he told Blaster to shut up? Remember when he had character?
>>84428287
Exactly. Bayverse Prime has a personality. I mean he's a psychopath but at least that is a personality. The element I hated about the Aligned Universe the most is one of the books revealed that Optimus is one of the 13.
>>84428354
Yeah, thank goodness they made that exclusive to Aligned. Although IDW is hinting at it too, and if they do it I'm gonna be really pissed...
>>84428255
He is the old guy that is sick of fighting but continues to do so for hope of a better tomorrow. Those guys are pretty boring.
>>84428388
IDW Space Cop Orion Pax is best Optimus Prime
>>84428408
Nothing again Cullen at all. He's badass. I just wish he got better direction. I also wish he could play Iron Hide again
>>84427198
>>84427265
and also namedrops the Prime kids
>>84428111
Rescue Bots is still airing season 4
>>84428557
Good. Rescue Bots is fun.
>>84427354
>>84428448
fuck no. Best Prime is when he was a librarian who became the leader of the race.
>>84428683
What was the original plan for season 3? Some kind of guerrilla warfare against the cons and the team scattered to the winds?
>>84428944
Dreamwave Prime? Why him out all the options?
>>84427784
Naw he is dead, just not gone. WHO YOU GUNNA CALL... GHOST STARSCREAM
>>84429173
More like G1, Dreamwave, and Prime Prime.
IDW is the absolute worst. It takes a guy who was supposed to be a defender of peace and turns him into John McClane. Plus he was the only leader the Autobots ever had which is fucking retarded.
For every good thing IDW does they add 15 pants on head retarded things. Hasbro needs to reign them the fuck in because damn.
>>84429442
G1 cartoon Prime was a dock worker.
G1 US Marvel Prime doesn't have a backstory.
G1 UK Marvel Prime was a gladiator.
G1 Dreamwave Prime was a librarian.
G1 IDW Prime was a cop.
Aligned Prime was a data clerk.
>Plus he was the only leader the Autobots ever had which is fucking retarded.
Not true.
>>84429080
Cybertron is restored, the Autobots explore it "Wild West-style", and meet more Predacons and Maximals.
Oh, and pirates.
>>84429700
In IDW the war started when Optimus was the leader. Optimus has been the sole leader of the entire civil war.
>>84430518
What? No. The war pretty much started when Sentinel Prime was...well, not in charge, but he was the highest ranked Autobot.
Then he died, and the war continued with Zeta Prime taking his place.
THEN Optimus.
>>84430584
Those were not Autobots.
>>84430645
Ohhhhh, I see what you mean now. Okay.
Meanwhile, this.

>>84430645
They were Autobots, just not the ones you're thinking of. The name had already been in use for a long time.
>>84431016
Autobots was a name that was assigned by the enemies claiming that they were lacking in self-awareness and simply tools.
>>84430302
In 2015, former Hasbro employee Rik Alvarez stated that Thundertron would have appeared in Season 3 of Prime, before external pressures forced the writing staff to focus instead on the Beast Hunters toyline. As a result, Thundertron was scrapped, rendering his buildup in the novels obsolete and somewhat bizarre when viewed out of context.
>>84431104
Pity, too. His toy is awesome.

I wonder what happened to Shockwave after Predacons Rising.
>>84431503
Dead. Trampled by the terrorcon horde his appearance in front of the Predacons was them working out their loyalty from within
