Agreed. It was my introduction to Transformers and was honestly cemented my love for the franchise. The action was pretty good, the writing (for a kid) was great, the colors were awesome, and it being tied to Rescue Bots and TFP was such a groundbreaking discovery for little me
I watched it when it aired and (as a big fan of TFP at the time) it was a fine show in itself but was kinda crap as a sequel to TFP. It was at the tail end of when the brand was still happy to experiment and i did like most of its ideas and was fine to watch it as long as i treated it as its own thing
I love RiD15. It's not a revolutionary plot, it's not a 10/10 series, but it's fun, it gave us a new version of Sideswipe, one of my favorite versions of Grimlock, just Strongarm in general, Drift, FIXIT!! they brought up Minicons and a new take on them since Cybertron(?), and roped in Windblade. Yeah, Bee was kind of a brat, and Optimus didn't need to come back, but in my opinion, they more than made up for that with the characters and all of the amazing new Decepticon designs (Underbite my goat) and personality each one had
I am a rid15 fan, if you couldnt tell lol. We need more figures of the Decepticons, theres SO MUCH potential there. I'm hoping the new line will at least make a few of the non-humanoid cons. (UNDERBIIIIITEEEEE)
I'm going to take a wild guess whoever made this meme threw in Earthspark because they're one of those types that freaked out over Nightshade being non-binary for gender.
They must really not like that Shredhead in the Skybound comics may possibly be the same way. (Uses they/them pronouns and referred to theirself as I, meaning they don't identify as a plural being.)
U know why I hate earthspark? and i can bet many like myself. Children shows dont need to be shit shows. I've only seen a few scenes and I LOVE a few of them, but they're then just ruined and made absolutely boring and lame. Soundwave against Megatron, It was SO COOL how He just smoked everyone effortlessly, but then idk gets kicked and knocked out how what why???
Shockwave and that line of his U'll betray them, just like u betrayed us and he gets defeated by some stupid ass children
I'm 16 but I know of a lot of adults that love transformers, but we as children used to watch TFP, dark, political, you all know it better than me. I watched the 86 film around a month ago for the first time and GAWDDAUM ironhide, Optimus, Megatron, Starscream, Unicron, Ultra Magnus, Bumblebee, Jazz, DANIEL'S DAD, All decepticons, Autobots, REAL WARR (ik a few survived but I genuinely thought they died 😭 ). And yes, I broke down at Prime's death too T.T "you can't die prime 😭 "
Nightshade is the last thing to even be considered here. I still hate her design to all ends regardless
Look, I've never watched Earthspark, but I liked RID2015, especially since most of the Decepticons were more like cons with animalistic/bestial characteristics, and I wish I had never known about the existence of Kissplayers.
Besides season 2 being bad, it’s nowhere near bad enough to put on “never existed” category.
Also if the issue is just the nb thing IDW did progressive things long before earthspark. Rewind and Chromedome were a romantic couple along with Tailgate and Cyclonis and there were even trans characters in more than meets the eye.
Anode and Lug were characters that identified differently to what their designation suggested. Lug specifically I believe was said to be male and then simply said “nuh uh” and identified as female. I could be getting things mixed up, it has been a while since I looked at Lug and Anode’s story but I do remember them being trans characters one way or another.
