That look Arcee gives Smokescreen when he reveals his new paint job…
There’s a lot hidden inside that look
and oddly for me, none of it romantic
#i’ve been trying to read that look #seems mostly like pity #and something else
I agree.
For all her complaining about Smokescreen and her justifiably aggressive attitude towards him, I get the feeling that Arcee really does understand this kid… probably a lot better than he understands himself. Heck, she wouldn’t have given him such a hard time if she didn’t like him, after-all she was trying to get him up to speed with the rest of the team and teach him some self-preservation. When Smokescreen did a good job, like retrieving the Omega Keys and escaping capture in “Inside Job”, she told him so. Arcee understood why Smokescreen behaved the way he did and where his attitude came from, but she knew it had to be curbed because such childishness was a hindrance to their war-efforts.
So, when Smokescreen peels into the base with a new coat of paint… a color that suspiciously resembles her own… she can see right through him, through the gears and cogs of his mind into why he did this and what he’s thinking. She doesn’t praise him. She doesn’t scold him. She doesn’t question him… She just gives him this look…

Let us never forget that Sumalee Montano, in spite of not being a giant alien robot motorcycle, is just as cool as Arcee.

Love how Optimus protects Arcee from the scraplets.
Due to robustness, he will now be able to protect his family more efficiently.

For some reason I was not expecting you to pick Jazz. And yet I cannot fault your choice : he’s pretty FLAWLESS.
It’s a tough choice, I’ll admit. There’s a great deal of Autobot characters I do really like (Ultra Magnus, Tracks, Moonracer, Cosmos), but to have a character I like across most if not all continuities becomes challenging. For example, I really like TFP!Arcee, but her TFA incarnation doesn’t have much to go on (not that she’s a bad character, just that we don’t see much of her), G1!Arcee is pretty cool but not my favorite, and I came to like IDW Arcee as presented in the Robots in Disguise run oddly enough, but not really in the earlier ongoing IDW issues which introduced her character.
With Jazz, he’s always excellent. Every single incarnation of him I’ve loved, he’s always fun to watch and interesting. Even if the work he was in didn’t necessarily treat him respectfully (Bay-verse), or even if he wasn’t a “nice” person per say (Aligned Continuity novels).
Though, I am curious… Who did you think I was gonna pick?
Seriously though, Out of the Past is one of my favorite episodes from season 2 of TFP. An oddity, considering it has no Dreadwing in it. But it had lots of other great stuff to compensate like Arcee and Cliffjumper’s excellent banter… and most loyal-servant-Chugway.
And my favorite Chugway line: “Interloper!”
Interview on Nerdist
Ah! We’re on Nerdist! So excited! More exclamation points!!!
Mike Johnson: “I was fortunate to write two episodes that focused on my favorite Prime character, Arcee. I loved writing her unique voice as the female ‘Bot surrounded by the guys. It was an added bonus to explore her relationship with Cliffjumper. They had a nice Bonnie & Clyde vibe going as partners (if you substitute punching Decepticons for robbing banks.)”
I am crying…

Heeeeeeyyyyy, an Arcee cover! Nice!
Still, hard to beat that first image; it’s so damned cool
snug as hell!
Oh no… That’s really cute!
I actually like bumblebee’s new look, makes him look pretty badass
I don’t know if it’s been pointed out already, but it’s not just a color change. They’ve edited a few elements of his CGI model, most notably the shoulders and lower arms.
Anyways, this black is clearly his adult plumage. He can now show Arcee his mating dance.
Meanwhile, over on the Autobot front…
When I watch Transformers Prime, I just get this Airazor vibe from Arcee a lot of the time. I love Airazor and I love Arcee, and you know what? I would actually totally dig a TFP-esque revival of Beast Wars.
Jumpin’ gyros!
tardigraderanger asked:
Who are your top 5 favorite characters from the Aligned Continuity? WfC, Foc, Exodus, Exiles, Prime, and RB.
Ah, the Aligned Continuity specifically… A very interesting question.
- Grimlock
- Dreadwing
- Arcee
- Blades
- Cody Burns/Frankie Greene (close tie)
The Rescue Bots kids count, they’re Aligned and also the best damned humans in the entire franchise.

In celebration of the second season of Transformers Prime, here is my new tribute video. Be advised that this CMV contains footage from all 26 episodes of the season, and as such, there are massive spoilers.
I went for a slower pace, focusing more on the set pieces and characters we’ve seen this year rather than rapid fire editing. It’s a bit of an experiment for me, but hopefully you’ll find it entertaining to watch. Hope to see you all again when S3 rolls out!

If they did ever have the female autobot team in Prime how would you like to see it handled? Also what do you think of female decepticons like Esmeryl, and Lyzack being added and Esmeryl as a potential mate and maybe a foil to Megatron himself?
I’m assuming you mean a female Autobot on Team Prime in addition to Arcee?
I feel very strongly about putting more female characters into forefront roles in action/adventure cartoon shows. But I like to think my standards are pretty open.
Give me a good character, but be conscious of the pitfalls associated with women’s depiction in media. Be wary of cliche personality types unless proper justification for these traits are supplied. Don’t undercut feminine interests or symbols as being inferior. Having or using sexuality should be treated carefully and not as a means to assign shame. Use caution when introducing her as a love interest to a new or recently established male character.
If romance must be on the table, make sure she has a life and motivations outside of the relationship. Make sure the female character doesn’t just exist to serve the development/self actualization of a male character.
One of the things I really like about Arcee is how romance has been kept at arm’s length. She and Cliffjumper had… chemistry… in “Out of the Past”, but it wasn’t the ultimate focus of her character. Plus, Arcee is highly central to the plot, and has her own ongoing struggles/motives. Arcee never takes a backseat or becomes horrible de-powered or shamed for action just so a man can prove himself. The handling of her character isn’t always perfect, but it’s something, it could have been a hell of a lot worse…
Sigh…
Personally, I’d like to see a female Autobot that was a little bigger and less overtly feminine than Arcee or Airachnid have been depicted. Not that there’s anything wrong with them or their looks, mind you. But, I think its important to show women in a range of builds and sizes. If we can have buff little men like Bumblebee, and round tubby Bulkhead: a petite hour-glass figure should not be the only available mode for the girls.
Take up more physical space, take up more symbolic space.
So really, I’d be down for anything. Give me a Strika; she was originally a Maximal in Beast Machines after-all. Give me the female version of TFA’s Red Alert. Just give me a good female character and we’ll go from there.
As for Esmeryl and Lyzack, I honestly haven’t watched Transformers Victory yet, so I really can’t give an opinion. A wife for Megatron? Maybe not. A villainous foil? Yeah, that could work.
Meanwhile, this happened.
