In Italy back in the time we had headmasters aired and dubbed in italian right after season 3, and it actually served as season 4 for the italian transformers show
The name of such a feared Decepticon in the G1 era...ends up being the name of a complete jobber who doesn't even survive past the first episode of season 2 in Beast Wars lol
@@tripleairgoddess I admit I didn't read every Transformers IDW comic...though seeing a scary rationale Prowl or Thundercracker's adventures on earth made me chuckle a bit...what happened to Chromedome?
This is why I actually kinda like how Scorponok was just countless drones in Kingdom. It made more sense for their to be a singular, dumb as hell Scorponok who apparently thought he was the chief science officer and second in command, even though no one else recognized it.
@@OmegaII ultimately I think its kinda funny Megatron was considered a legacy name, one so admired that Predacon Megatron took it as his namesake...but Scoponok? Nah totally fine, you can use that name cause no one remembers G1 Scoponok lol
I think the animation is better than season 4 to be honest. Get Hasbro on the line and inform them Im in the process of writing a script! Im on part 2 and took a break but I have been doing small edits like naming a few Quintessons. Im stepping back and making sure in my head I like where its going. But I have it in my mind how I like it to go. I just need to keep pushing forward.
seriously wish they would give back the show license back to japan. Things in the states have NOT been good since Galaxy force, Microns/Armada at peak. Look at the new cgi movie starring overused A-list actors coming out here soon... wtf is that?! Real fans want great designs like this!
I guess that without Hasbro's funding, Toei had even less money to do "Headmasters". The animation quality seemed to improve for "Masterforce" and "Victory", though, IIRC.
I don't know about this self righteous attitude like the ones in America were so flawless. There are plenty of errors in the Transformers American animation of the first series, and plot holes inconsistencies, everything, in the American version.
@@tripleairgoddess Oh, absolutely. The first three seasons were wildly inconsistent. The Headmasters is definitely better-looking than "Five Faces of Darkness" or "Rebirth", for example. I don't mean to impugn the talent involved in any season; only the amount of time and money they had at their disposal. After all, the Headmasters (along with Masterforce, Victory and Zone) were animated by the same studio who animated the best-looking episodes of seasons 1&2, as well as the 1986 movie.
This is from the Japanese Headmasters cartoon. AIRED July 3, 1987 - March 25, 1988 with 35 episodes. Season 4 aired: Nov 9-Nov 11, 1987 Spike is not a head for the Cerebros shell, he is a Cyberdroid, a smaller Cybertronian that is more the size of a tall human. I assume 6 feet and over. In comparison more like MiniCons I believe.
Some transformers can change size when they transform like Megatron, Astrotrain and Soundwave, I guess that happens with the titans, they shrink when in robot mode while in base and attack mode are larger.
While the animation is a little better than AKOM, though anyone can do better than AKOM animating starring robots, except for AI and Hanna Barbera with Gobots. Scorponok in Rebirth had better build up with the base and scorpion, and still had the good background music. It's like comparing the Nemesis in Beast Wars vs Prime. Yes, different beast and timing, but revival strike fear while the other could build fear, but left forgotten before given dark energon.
@@tripleairgoddess Now I never said "Zarak should be human or Nebuleon." What Zarak shouldn't be is either lazy, boring, more mental unstable than Galvatron, or weaker than the beast headmasters.
