Transformers Robots in Disguise: Mission secrète

My son loves this show, even more than Rescue Bots. As I'm forced to watch many of these shows with him, I quite enjoy this one a well. The animation throws back to the original series with anime style thrown in for good measure. Compared to Rescue Bots, it's a step up.

There are good jokes, the characters are fun, and while made for children, there are things adults can enjoy, too.

The most telling thing about this series is that, despite the abysmal series rating, nearly EVERY episode has an average rating over 7, with a number of 8+ scores, and just a tiny handful of 5 & 6 averages. Seems like people who actually gave the show a chance and watched the episodes enjoyed them. And it does have a lot going for it. Most significant, the creation of new, interesting characters to round out the roster of familiar Autobots and Decepticons. Steeljaw, alone - one of the most complex and nuanced foes the Autobots have ever faced - made his debut in the third episode of the series. But I suppose anyone determined to hate it had already made up their mind by that point.

As a fan and collector of Transformers toys, you have to admire it their were a few plot holes left unanswered after Predacons Rising and the design of Menasor, Ultra Bee and, Galvatronus.

Polygon Pictures is definitely a go to for outsourcing animation especially for Hasbro when it comes to either plastic shading (solid CGI) and toon shading (non-photorealistic rendering) like if Hasbro wanted to make Power Rangers (anime-like) animated series Polygon Pictures would be my choice for toon-shading to give it that anime-influenced look.

As many have already expressed, this serie is a bit of a step down from the previous one Supposed to be its sequel, it lack the depth and plot of its predecessor

But then, it's obvious that this was not made with the same aim in mind This is clearly a "villain of the week" type of serie, with each episode throwing out a new villain, with the aim of selling toys of them

Kids can easily appreciate the humours and there were some good moment, but I was very disappointed with how they handled the whole "sequel" thing

Barely any connection to the past serie, this could be considered standalone without problems, and it might actually be better off

For me,Transformers Prime was the best Transformers series i ever watched and Robots IN Disguise is somehow, a little distanced from what was Transformers Prime.It is improving with the stories, but its really not like Autobots stopping grand plots of EVIL Decepticons, but a lot of comedy and 4 Autobots struggling to control just one Decepticon every episode-NO grand EVIL yet and no big mastermind;just catch some Decepticons, put them in stasis.. and make sure they stay that way.Now , speaking of the comedy, you want to see a burger splat on Optimus Prime's face 'cause that would the silliest and most disrespecting thing happening to Optimus in all the animated multi-verse...now i am not saying loose that touch suddenly 'cause if that does the show will loose popularity and'll be canceled.I don't want that , i want the Prime animated universe to continue, now that they have introduced an OK but 'etu'innegative sequel.I say IMPROVE.
