The CGI itself may not be the greatest, but it is vastly superior to the garbage lack of detail CGI of Bayformers Prime. Optimus Primal has more details in his mouth alone than Bay Prime's entire head.

My only real problem with it, is there doesn't ever seem to be any consequence to any of the violence. A few episodes ago Optimus Primal was damaged and I thought he said he'd never be able to fly again, but he's been flying ever since. in the episode we watched last night, Rattrap shot Terrorsaur's head off, and the body wandered around looking for the head, and the head could still speak. My girls thought it was funny, but should he be deactivated without a head? and I'm sure he'll be fine next time.

That's because they have the healing chambers. They are far more advanced than the Autobots and Decepticons were. What do you expect for a civilization that is 300 years later? However, like I said before, Season 2 changes the game and ups the stakes on a massive scale.

I don't know how you can even watch one episode of the Unicron trilogy. Armada is down right bad that it might as well have just been called Ed Edd and Eddy Meet The Transformers since it is more about annoying kids than the actual robots. The second series started out good but then ejaculated too early as they had to make up some random crap for the last 12 episodes of the series that did not fit with the rest of the show. Finally, the Jp version to the third show as pretty good, but the English version was down right dreadful. It did not help that these kids looked to be in their 20s rather than in the early teens. The other issue with the entire trilogy is that they had no idea what they wanted to do with Megatron. Sometimes he is Megatron. Then he is Galvatron. Then he is back to Megatron. Decides to call himself Galvatron again. Then changes his name to Master Megatron, only to go back to Master Galvatron. ICK!!!!! MAKE UP YOUR DAMN MIND ALREADY!!!!!

Anyway, if I still cared about Transformers toys, I might have bought that Waspinator (despite how bad his beast mode looks) and Rhinox, as their robot modes look fantastic. Far better than that failed attempt at doing Cheetor (aka The Hunch Bot of Notre Tron) and the wrongly colored Dinobot.
