Overlord: Hey look buddy, im an engineer, and that means i solve problems. Not problems like "what is beauty?", for that would fall within the perview of a conundrum thats philosophy. I solve practical problems
Overlord was always powerful, he has beaten Super Ginrai in a 1 v 1 fight with each. And it was stated that Super Ginrai was a upgraded body for Optimus, so yes even before we had IDW Overlord was considered has a very power cybertronion.
Overlord: "Ya see, he could not quite tolerate my dosey tones, my choice in vernacular, and my particular method of.... articulation." Hot Rod: "Also, you talk funnny." God, now I can't get the mental idea out of my head now. Overlord saying "Don't you lecture me with your $30 haircut! Optimus dies!"
Despite his causal and joking demeanor overlord is one of the nastiest most depraved vile and malevolent character and cybertronian even worse darker and more evil than his hated enemy megatron
It’s like that one scene in Assassination Classroom. The yellow squid monster is doing attendance for the class he’s chosen to kill him, meanwhile the class is shooting him with automatic weapons, and the only acknowledgment he has to that is asking one student “Would you mind speaking a bit louder? I’m having trouble hearing you over the sound of the gunfire.”
This Overlord is most likely based on his IDW counterpart, which he was turned into a phase sixer with a near indestructible "skeletal" structure. Only real way to take him out is to use the same metal used to enforce the structures of phase sixers (forgot the name). The wreckers tried to blow him up but it only really destroyed his armor plating.
@@TuberoseKisser They were also deployed by megatron to "delete" well fortified planets and well armed fleets that would cost too much manpower and resources in a conventional attack. Even Black Shadow, one of the weaker ones defeated the 113th battalian, which was reinforced by Optimus AND Ultra Magnus.
I love how he just sits there and takes the hits just to flex and be like "Oh no, so anyway" It reminds me of the Daleks in Dr Who when they'll get peppered with bullets only to exterminate the humans once they realise that bullets dont do shit lol. So extra.
I just realized something today. Overlord's VA is Patrick Seitz, who also does the voice for Franky in One Piece (among other characters I cannot be bothered to name). Both characters got something blue (most of Overlord is blue, while Franky's hair is blue alongside his stars and his post-timeskip forearms), they are both machines (Franky is technically part machine, part human but you get the idea) and are large characters.
@@k.m.k.2976 Honest, I see more DIO in Overlord in general: totally stacked, nigh-invincible, UNNERVINGLY handsome and chisled face, totally merciless, chrasmatic as hell, brutally murders for the fun of it, etc.
He's so powerful and iconic in the show because in Masterforce (a japanese continuation of G1, but still canon) he had extreme firepower and in the tfwiiki he was mentioned as "a bot to be heavily feared on the battlefield." In this show he even makes Megatron his btch. I perosnally really like Overlord, def my favorite con, and I thorougly enjoyed the Prime Wars Trilogy back then
@@SwiftNimblefoot one would assume that if a female character is nicknamed Dashie and a transformers character has a male voice it would mean that someone else has the nickname Dashie.
It seems so…weird. I’m so used to Menasor being this imposing, monster. No offense to the VA, but the voice just comes out like a young punk who doesn’t know what it is like to get his can dented instead of a serious threat.
@@MasterArchfiend Who cares?? I never even liked Menasor to begin with since all you Menasor and Devastator stans ever do is criticize other combiners like Pirahnacon.
THAT WILL BE TOO MUCH IN THE SHOW AND HE WILL WILL BE POPULAR IN THE SHOW CAUSE OF THAT AND HE IS A DIFFERENT CHARACTER IN THIS SHOW ---------------- WHAT AM I SAYING

@@hattanalshutaifi4587 yeah you are right but people have different taste in characters some of them love repulsive characters others love charming characters but when it comes to transformers like get away and overlord they are still likeable even to they are scums in toy forms
It's deceptively genial. He's talking in this casual, folksy Southern accent both when he's acting like a friendly fellow and he's committing depraved actions. Even at his most evil, he still seems charming and casual. That's what makes it menacing; the skin-deep affability barely masking if not channeling his cruelty.
Not gonna lie, the G1 OVERLORD's thick Hillbilly drawl is actually what I like the most, man. Also, not gonna lie, it is a heartbreaking shame that VICTORION was killed off during the G1 PRIME WARS TRILOGY; I wish she lived throughout the trilogy and properly split into her separate components of the Torchbearer robot AMAZONS during it too, man.
@@ocurr515 Combiners are weak when you realize all you need to dokill the head Slit the throat It's incredibly easy as most of them have exposed wiring and s*** On their neck And that renders the team just another group of Bots
