Actually, I'm really happy to see the return of the -ation designs. I loved the redesigns IDW did originally (and really disliked the AHM return to "authentic" G1 designs...although some were definately from Universe: Classics, like Sideswipe). So, I'm hoping for more of a -ation design with this new book.

I agree wholeheartedly. McCarthy's aparently-random return to G1 designs confused/annoyed the crap out of me; the TFs' alt. modes taking a timeslide was utterly pointless - 'robots who stick out like sore thumbs' indeed. The IDW redesigns give them a look which makes sense in the here and now.Brimstone wrote:...loved the redesigns IDW did originally (and really disliked the AHM return to "authentic" G1 designs...
Very happy to see IDW getting their act together in this respect.

Really not keen on the faces in dons new style. Felt Ironhide had more then a hint of Johnny "short circuit" 5 in AHM #13. Definitely would prefer EJ or Roche on this. DF is a good artist, no question, but I feel Nick and EJ have managed to convey much more character with their drawings then just about anyone since DW took over.
I'll keep my fingers crossed that IDW is willing to take a few plot risks here and try something different. Also: less foreshadowing please.

Hot Rod: "I dunno. Playing video games in real life doesn't sound like a good idea."
Ironhide: "Ah'm thinkin'... whut... 250 gauge shell?"
It looks good, but that's the first thing that went through my mind when I saw it......

As a professional tanuki (I'm a Japanese mythological animal, and a good luck charm), I have an alarm clock built into me somewhere. I also look like a stuffed animal. And you thought your life was tough......
