Honestly, Hasbro would be better off using the money and energy budgeted to this medium for another Resolute style cartoon or something along the lines of the original Sunbow cartoon.
I don't believe that. Resolute was a big budget piece, but these are free pieces aimed at little kids who visit the site. They've already improved their production values over the Transformers flash cartoons "Action Blast 1" and "Fight for Energon", but asking for something Resolute or Sunbow is just unrealistic.

Second web-sode is out.

Strange there is no continuity with the first and Recondo sounds a lot like Zartan.

Thanks for the link!

Once again the credits are just as long as the cartoon.  Pretty weak stuff, IMO.

Well aside from the long credits, I thought it was pretty good. Whoever does General Hawk does a decent imitation of Dennis Quaid, Storm Shadow and Heavy Duty weren't half-bad either.
Decent action, less expository plot (although Recondo still gives plenty of that), all in all an enjoyable two-minutes-and-something.

Episode two is out and I think that the voice actress for Baroness is even worse than Sienna Miller which is no small feat.

Here's something interesting.

As it turns out, Hasbro's guys apparently uploaded the wrong episode.

Here's the actual second episode, a direct follow-up to the first:

Snow Job does a similar exposition-through-comm in this one as Recondo did in the second-third-whatever episode.

In his last line, for some reason... Ripcord starts sounding like Eddie Murphy. I found that funny.

I saw both Episode 2 videos and liked them.  Yes the credits are longer then the video but still worth watching.

:lol:  When I heard that line, I thought of the donkey from Shrek. 

Hey, Shrek, get me an ice pick.

Well, they aren't exactly what I'd hoped, but it's better than nothing at all.  They are obviously made to sell toys, and for kids.  And yeah, holy long credits, Batman!  I'll still be checking them out.  Thanks for the heads up on the!
