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.
As a follow-up to Transformers Prime, I can understand why some people found this show disappointing, however I thought it was still fun and entertaining.
The plot is a pretty standard villain of the week set up, with some overarching elements that fall apart under too much scrutiny and characters that don't really learn from their mistakes (presumably so that the episodes are relatively easy to understand when watched out of order on television) It introduces a lot of interesting concepts (ex. Cybertronian sign language) that unfortunately don't really get expanded on, but they're fun for the episodes they're in!
The animation is pretty average. I appreciate that the robot designs are somewhat simpler so that kids watching it might actually be able to draw their favourite characters.
The music in most episodes is pretty average. The Starscream theme is a banger, but the intro music is possibly the worst intro music I've ever heard and the rest of it is pretty forgettable so all in all it evens out.
Honestly though, a lot of the jokes landed for me, it's set up well for its target audience, and I had fun. If you're looking for a light bit of transformers entertainment and you're prepared to view this as a separate entity to Transformers Prime I don't think you should rule this show out as an option :)

I agree with the reviewers who rated this series one star. As a transformers fan, I enjoyed Transformers Prime and was excited to watch this show. But boy, was I wrong. I watched three episodes and stopped. This show is downright awful and the characters made it worst. Optimus Prime and Bumblebee are the only ones that carried over from Transformers Prime. The others are terrible. For the Autobots, there's slacker Sideswipe, an uptight femme bot Strongarm (who looks like a male) and an annoying minibot Fixit. On the Decepticons, there's Steeljaw and the others such as Thunderhoof and Springload are just butt ugly. The story line is corny and there's no mention of Megatron, Starscream, Soundwave and Airachnid. Overall, this show is terrible and too cartoony. If you're into Transformers Rescue Bots, this show is for you. Otherwise, avoid this series.
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

Robots in Disguise should be a shame to the franchise as a whole. It is supposed to be a follow up series to the highly acclaimed Transformers Prime, but it failed miserably. As a stand alone series, it also struggles to justify itself. The plot is extremely silly and repetitive: there is a random animal-looking decepticon that is trying to make a mess in the nearby city, the autobots have to capture him, but one of them has to learn a lesson before doing so (a lesson that is gonna be forgotten in the next episode). This happens over and over again. The characters lack deepness and evolution, the main plot line (that holds viewers on the long run) is practically absent. This series survived from toys, nostalgia and fan-service. It is literally garbage.

- TriviaThe series was meant to cater to a younger crowd than its prequel series Transformers Prime (2010), since network reports have shown that Transformers cartoons aimed at smaller children produce better ratings and since the older part of the fan community isn't large enough of a consumer base for Hasbro to aim an entire cartoon series at. It is essentially meant for kids who have become familiar with the franchise through Transformers: Rescue Bots - Mission Protection! (2011) but have since grown out of that show and are now ready to discover the larger universe of the Transformers brand.
- Alternate versionsCrazybolt, a male character in the show's original version, became female in its Hungarian dubbing.
