===Continuity notes===
* Guess who's back? Soundwave and Laserbeak previously appeared all the way back in "[[Deadlock]]", where [[Jack Darby|Jack]], [[Miko]] and [[Raf]] and managed to trap him in the Shadowzone. Fixit exposits this information to the humans (and presumably for the benefit of viewers who haven't watched ''Prime''), even noting that his defeat took place aboard the ''[[Nemesis (Prime)|Nemesis]]''.
* Bumblebee name-drops all three of the main humans who appeared in ''Prime'': Jack, Raf, and Miko, and remembers the time that they were also trapped in the Shadowzone, which happened in the [[Shadowzone (episode)|eponymous episode]].
* Fixit mentions that [[Megatron (WFC)|Megatron]] is "light-years away", suggesting that the former Decepticon leader is still in his self-imposed exile after the events of "[[Predacons Rising]]".
* More of the Fixit-style [[Mini-Con]]s we saw in "[[Deep Trouble]]" are working in the Decepticon base.

===Prisoner manifest===
* ''In stasis'': [[Hammerstrike (RID)|Hammerstrike]], [[Chop Shop (RID)|Chop Shop]], [[Terrashock]], [[Filch]], [[Minitron]], [[Ped]], "that one with all the eyes", [[Malodor]] and the [[Skunkticon]]s, [[Nightstrike]], [[Vertebreak (RID)|Vertebreak]], [[Octopunch (RID)|Octopunch]], [[Headlock (RID)|Headlock]], [[Scowl (RID)|Scowl]], "[[Fancyclaws]]", [[Zizza]], [[Pseudo]], [[Fracture (RID)|Fracture]], [[Airazor (RID)|Airazor]], [[Divebomb (RID)|Divebomb]], [[Underbite]], [[Backtrack (RID)|Backtrack]], [[Ransack (RID Mini-Con)|Ransack]], [[Polarclaw]], [[Razorpaw]], [[Swelter]], [[Glacius]], [[Torpor]], [[Simacore]], [[Axiom]], [[Theorem]], [[Scorponok (WFC)|Scorponok]], [[Crazybolt (RID)|Crazybolt]], [[Slicedice]], [[Bludgeon (RID 2015)|Bludgeon]], [[Clout]], [[Bisk]], [[Hammer (RID)|Hammer]], [[Anvil (RID)|Anvil]], [[Silverhound]], [[Quillfire]], [[Back]], [[Forth]]

* ''Released'': Grimlock
* ''Countless others all missing, presumed at large''
===Transformers references===
* Another [[Sharkticon (Prime)|Sharkticon]] appears, this one sporting a more traditional color scheme in line with the species' [[Sharkticon (G1)|Generation 1 counterparts]].
===Real-world references===
===Trivia===
* The new [[Sharkticon (Prime)|Sharkticon]] is identical to Hammerstrike, except for he does not have extruding eyes, and so looks more like a regular shark. The only other dfference is the colouring.
* 4 more [[Vehicon (Prime)|Vehicon]] soldiers show up, one being red and black, another being orange and black, and another being teal and black. The forth is unclear, but is mostly a darker shade of blue.

[[File:TFRID2015promoposter.jpg|300px|thumb|Hopefully we won't be calling it "''Transformers: [[Cartoon Network|Cancelled]]''" within a year...]]
'''''Transformers: Robots in Disguise''''' is an animated television series that premiered on [[Cartoon Network]]<ref>[http://investor.hasbro.com/social/releasedetail.cfm?ReleaseID=874978 Cartoon Network Becomes the Home of Hasbro Studios' Newest Series, Transformers: Robots in Disguise]</ref> in the United States on [[March 14]], 2015.<ref>[http://www.tvinsider.com/article/472/cartoon-network-gears-up-for-transformers-robots-in-disguise/ Cartoon Network Gears Up for Transformers: Robots in Disguise]</ref> Set years after ''[[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)|Transformers: Prime]]'', the show follows [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]] as he travels back to [[Earth]] after the prison ship ''[[Alchemor]]'' crash-lands on the planet. Charged with rounding up the escaped [[Decepticon]] prisoners, he reluctantly takes command of a new team of [[Autobot]]s.

Crew members returning from ''Prime'' include executive producer [[Jeff Kline]] and writer [[Steven Melching]], now story editor, and [[Mairghread Scott]], serving as Script Coordinator/Writer’s Assistant.<ref>[http://mscottwrites.tumblr.com/post/93785539366/out-of-curiousity-are-you-going-to-be-part-of-the/ Mairghread's Tumblr Post]</ref> [[Adam Beechen]] serves as the producer.

The show made its worldwide debut in late December 2014, with the first 13 episodes released as pay-to-view content on Chinese video streaming website [http://www.1905.com M1905].

In September 2015, Hasbro announced a second season of the show, which debuted in February 2016.<ref>[http://www.worldscreen.com/articles/display/52681 MIPJunior Spotlight: Hasbro Studios]</ref> Season 1 of the show is currently available on [[Netflix]] in certain regions.

==Overview==
Years after the [[Great War (Prime)|Great War]], the Autobot prison ship ''[[Alchemor]]'' crashes on [[Earth]] near [[Crown City]]. Its cargo of [[stasis pod]]s, carrying several hundred of the most-wanted [[Decepticon]]s, are scattered across the countryside, releasing the dangerous Decepticons within. The [[Mini-Con]] [[Fixit (RID)|Fixit]] sends a mayday, however on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]], now working as a street cop for the repopulated planet, is instead alerted by a vision of [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]]. Optimus gives Bumblebee a new mission on Earth, sending the young Autobot to the nearest [[space bridge]]. Bumblebee unwillingly finds himself accompanied to Earth by his cop partner [[Strongarm (RID)|Strongarm]] and the delinquent [[Sideswipe (WFC)|Sideswipe]]. Joined by the ex-Decepticon prisoner [[Grimlock (WFC)|Grimlock]], and two [[human]]s — [[Denny Clay]], owner of a [[Vintage Salvage Depot for the Discriminating Nostalgist]] (a scrapyard) and his son [[Russell Clay|Russell]], and later bounty hunter [[Drift (RID)|Drift]], his two Mini-Cons [[Jetstorm (RID)|Jetstorm]] and [[Slipstream (RID)|Slipstream]], and [[Windblade (RID)|Windblade]] are added to the team — Bumblebee and his team must track down the escaped prisoners and prevent harm coming to Earth or its native population. Chief among the threats poised by the Decepticons is the charismatic [[Steeljaw (RID)|Steeljaw]], who seeks to organize the escaped prisoners into an effective cabal to conquer the planet.

==Japanese release==
''Robots in Disguise'' was released in Japan as two separately branded series.
===''Transformers Adventure''===
[[Image:TransformersAdventureJapaneseLogo.jpg|center|300px]]

'''''Transformers Adventure''''' (トランスフォーマーアドベンチャー ''Toransufōmā Adobenchā'') aired on the satellite network [[Animax]] with a Sunday, 9am timeslot. ''Adventure'' was the first Transformers cartoon to be relegated directly to satellite since ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (cartoon)#Japanese release|Beast Wars Returns]]''. It premiered on [[March 15]], 2015... only a ''day'' after the US premiere.

The localization for the series was headed by [[Keiichirō Miyoshi]], who headed the localization of the [[live-action film series|live-action ''Transformers'' films]] for Japanese markets. This also makes ''Adventure'' the first American ''Transformers'' cartoon to be released in Japan ''without'' the oversight of [[Yoshikazu Iwanami]] since [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1]]. While an effort was made to emulate the dubbing style of Iwanami, which has become synonymous with Transformers cartoons in Japan, the adlibbing was not nearly as extensive and fourth wall-breaking humor was non-existent.

Since ''Adventure'' aired on a satellite network and not a broadcast network, it was not edited for time like previous ''Transformers'' cartoons. The episodes were fully uncut and featured extended opening and ending sequences. The [[title sequence]] was comprised mostly of clips from episodes, but new animation (mostly group shots) was provided by [[LandQ Studio]]. The end credits sequence featured a newly animated "stage performance" from the cast ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZE2jqYoTTc which really must be seen to be believed]), animated by [[Nakano Design]].

As is rather well-known, ''[[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)#Japanese release|Transformers: Prime]]'' did not complete its run in Japan, ending at 52 episodes. To date, Japanese audiences have not received the ''[[Beast Hunters]]'' episodes or the ''[[Predacons Rising (Prime)|Predacons Rising]]'' film. The ''Adventure'' series did not alter the scripts to account for this, although it mostly played as a separate entity from ''Prime''.

Animax aired the episodes using the Australian broadcast order rather than the US order, which is actually the incorrect continuity sequence. As a result, "[[Sideways (episode)|Sideways]]" aired before "[[Out of Focus]]".

The [[theme song]] for the series is "[[Save the Future!!]]" by [[Mitsuhiro Oikawa]] and the ending theme is "[[Try☆Transformers Adventure↑↑↑]]" performed by the primary cast of the show (Bumblebee, Strongarm, Sideswipe, Fixit, Grimlock and Optimus Prime).

===''Transformers Adventure -Prime of Micron-''===

[[File:Prime of Micron logo.jpg|center|300px|]]

Season 2 will begin airing in 2016 under the title '''''Transformers Adventure -Prime of Micron-''''' (トランスフォーマーアドベンチャー -マイクロンの章- ''Toransufōmā Adobenchā -Maikuron no Shō-''). Incidentally, the "Maikuron no Shō" portion of the Japanese title actually translates to "Micron Chapter", but nobody tell them that.

==Notes==
*''Robots in Disguise'' did not have the most successful record when it came to premiering new episodes; in fact, every single episode of the first season was released through a different venue before it was broadcast on US television.
**The first 13 episodes of the series were released, dubbed in Mandarin Chinese, on [[December 31]], [[2014]] in mainland China, but not Hong Kong, several weeks in advance of their US broadcast. The episodes were made available on website 1905.com, with five-minute previews being free and the whole episodes available until [[January 15]] for CNY/RMB ¥19.5, which is around USD$3–4. [[You]] could even win a "fabulous" assortment of Hasbro toys (legion class) and a RMB¥30 digital coupon if you paid for the episodes!
**The show went on to to premiere on Canal J in France, Biggs in Portugal, and Cartoon Network in Hungary before the USA airings began. In particular, the English-language version of the show premiered on Cartoon Network in Australia and New Zealand about a month before the US airing; the channel aired two episodes a week instead of one, and so quickly tore through the first thirteen episodes of the season.
**The fourteenth episode debuted on Singgaporean television two months before its US airing.
**The final twelve episodes of the season were then released in two six-episode chunks via Autralian iTunes in the first two weeks of [[June]], [[2015]], allowing viewers to see the season finale three months before it aired in the US.
**Things seemed like they were going better for the second season, which managed to debut 6 episodes on US television, before Cartoon Network UK—airing two new episodes a week instead of just one—caught up to, and overtook, the US broadcast, airing the season finale around a month before the US.
*While it's possibly a coincidence, this series features [[Decepticon|antagonists]] with animal-like forms for the [[Autobot]]s to fight, much like the series' [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 cartoon)|2001 namesake predecessor]] and its featured [[Predacon (RID)|villains]].

==Japanese release==
''Robots in Disguise'' was released in Japan as two separately branded series.
===''Transformers Adventure''===
[[Image:TransformersAdventureJapaneseLogo.jpg|center|300px]]

'''''Transformers Adventure''''' (トランスフォーマーアドベンチャー ''Toransufōmā Adobenchā'') aired on the satellite network [[Animax]] with a Sunday, 9am timeslot. ''Adventure'' was the first Transformers cartoon to be relegated directly to satellite since ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (cartoon)#Japanese release|Beast Wars Returns]]''. It premiered on [[March 15]], 2015... only a ''day'' after the US premiere.

The localization for the series was headed by [[Keiichirō Miyoshi]], who headed the localization of the [[live-action film series|live-action ''Transformers'' films]] for Japanese markets. This also makes ''Adventure'' the first American ''Transformers'' cartoon to be released in Japan ''without'' the oversight of [[Yoshikazu Iwanami]] since [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1]]. While an effort was made to emulate the dubbing style of Iwanami, which has become synonymous with Transformers cartoons in Japan, the adlibbing was not nearly as extensive and fourth wall-breaking humor was non-existent.

Since ''Adventure'' aired on a satellite network and not a broadcast network, it was not edited for time like previous ''Transformers'' cartoons. The episodes were fully uncut and featured extended opening and ending sequences. The [[title sequence]] was comprised mostly of clips from episodes, but new animation (mostly group shots) was provided by [[LandQ Studio]]. The end credits sequence featured a newly animated "stage performance" from the cast ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZE2jqYoTTc which really must be seen to be believed]), animated by [[Nakano Design]].

As is rather well-known, ''[[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)#Japanese release|Transformers: Prime]]'' did not complete its run in Japan, ending at 52 episodes. To date, Japanese audiences have not received the ''[[Beast Hunters]]'' episodes or the ''[[Predacons Rising (Prime)|Predacons Rising]]'' film. The ''Adventure'' series did not alter the scripts to account for this, although it mostly played as a separate entity from ''Prime''.

Animax aired the episodes using the Australian broadcast order rather than the US order, which is actually the incorrect continuity sequence. As a result, "[[Sideways (episode)|Sideways]]" aired before "[[Out of Focus]]".

The [[theme song]] for the series is "[[Save the Future!!]]" by [[Mitsuhiro Oikawa]] and the ending theme is "[[Try☆Transformers Adventure↑↑↑]]" performed by the primary cast of the show (Bumblebee, Strongarm, Sideswipe, Fixit, Grimlock and Optimus Prime).

===''Transformers Adventure -Prime of Micron-''===

[[File:Prime of Micron logo.jpg|center|300px|]]

Season 2 will begin airing in 2016 under the title '''''Transformers Adventure -Prime of Micron-''''' (トランスフォーマーアドベンチャー -マイクロンの章- ''Toransufōmā Adobenchā -Maikuron no Shō-''). Incidentally, the "Maikuron no Shō" portion of the Japanese title actually translates to "Micron Chapter", but nobody tell them that.

==Notes==
*''Robots in Disguise'' did not have the most successful record when it came to premiering new episodes; in fact, every single episode of the first season was released through a different venue before it was broadcast on US television.
**The first 13 episodes of the series were released, dubbed in Mandarin Chinese, on [[December 31]], [[2014]] in mainland China, but not Hong Kong, several weeks in advance of their US broadcast. The episodes were made available on website 1905.com, with five-minute previews being free and the whole episodes available until [[January 15]] for CNY/RMB ¥19.5, which is around USD$3–4. [[You]] could even win a "fabulous" assortment of Hasbro toys (legion class) and a RMB¥30 digital coupon if you paid for the episodes!
**The show went on to to premiere on Canal J in France, Biggs in Portugal, and Cartoon Network in Hungary before the USA airings began. In particular, the English-language version of the show premiered on Cartoon Network in Australia and New Zealand about a month before the US airing; the channel aired two episodes a week instead of one, and so quickly tore through the first thirteen episodes of the season.
**The fourteenth episode debuted on Singgaporean television two months before its US airing.
**The final twelve episodes of the season were then released in two six-episode chunks via Autralian iTunes in the first two weeks of [[June]], [[2015]], allowing viewers to see the season finale three months before it aired in the US.
**Things seemed like they were going better for the second season, which managed to debut 6 episodes on US television, before Cartoon Network UK—airing two new episodes a week instead of just one—caught up to, and overtook, the US broadcast, airing the season finale around a month before the US.
*While it's possibly a coincidence, this series features [[Decepticon|antagonists]] with animal-like forms for the [[Autobot]]s to fight, much like the series' [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 cartoon)|2001 namesake predecessor]] and its featured [[Predacon (RID)|villains]].

==Overview==
Years after the [[Great War (Prime)|Great War]], the Autobot prison ship ''[[Alchemor]]'' crashes on [[Earth]] near [[Crown City]]. Its cargo of [[stasis pod]]s, carrying several hundred of the most-wanted [[Decepticon]]s, are scattered across the countryside, releasing the dangerous Decepticons within. The [[Mini-Con]] [[Fixit (RID)|Fixit]] sends a mayday, however on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]], now working as a street cop for the repopulated planet, is instead alerted by a vision of [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]]. Optimus gives Bumblebee a new mission on Earth, sending the young Autobot to the nearest [[space bridge]]. Bumblebee unwillingly finds himself accompanied to Earth by his cop partner [[Strongarm (RID)|Strongarm]] and the delinquent [[Sideswipe (WFC)|Sideswipe]]. Joined by the ex-Decepticon prisoner [[Grimlock (WFC)|Grimlock]], and two [[human]]s — [[Denny Clay]], owner of a [[Vintage Salvage Depot for the Discriminating Nostalgist]] (a scrapyard) and his son [[Russell Clay|Russell]], and later bounty hunter [[Drift (RID)|Drift]], his two Mini-Cons [[Jetstorm (RID)|Jetstorm]] and [[Slipstream (RID)|Slipstream]], and [[Windblade (RID)|Windblade]] are added to the team — Bumblebee and his team must track down the escaped prisoners and prevent harm coming to Earth or its native population. Chief among the threats poised by the Decepticons is the charismatic [[Steeljaw (RID)|Steeljaw]], who seeks to organize the escaped prisoners into an effective cabal to conquer the planet.

==Overview==
Years after the [[Great War (Prime)|Great War]], the Autobot prison ship ''[[Alchemor]]'' crashes on [[Earth]] near [[Crown City]]. Its cargo of [[stasis pod]]s, carrying several hundred of the most-wanted [[Decepticon]]s, are scattered across the countryside, releasing the dangerous Decepticons within. The [[Mini-Con]] [[Fixit (RID)|Fixit]] sends a mayday, however on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]], now working as a street cop for the repopulated planet, is instead alerted by a vision of [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]]. Optimus gives Bumblebee a new mission on Earth, sending the young Autobot to the nearest [[space bridge]]. Bumblebee unwillingly finds himself accompanied to Earth by his cop partner [[Strongarm (RID)|Strongarm]] and the delinquent [[Sideswipe (WFC)|Sideswipe]]. Joined by the ex-Decepticon prisoner [[Grimlock (WFC)|Grimlock]], and two [[human]]s — [[Denny Clay]], owner of a [[Vintage Salvage Depot for the Discriminating Nostalgist]] (a scrapyard) and his son [[Russell Clay|Russell]], and later bounty hunter [[Drift (RID)|Drift]], his two Mini-Cons [[Jetstorm (RID)|Jetstorm]] and [[Slipstream (RID)|Slipstream]], and [[Windblade (RID)|Windblade]] are added to the team — Bumblebee and his team must track down the escaped prisoners and prevent harm coming to Earth or its native population. Chief among the threats poised by the Decepticons is the charismatic [[Steeljaw (RID)|Steeljaw]], who seeks to organize the escaped prisoners into an effective cabal to conquer the planet.

==Japanese release==
''Robots in Disguise'' was released in Japan as two separately branded series.
===''Transformers Adventure''===
[[Image:TransformersAdventureJapaneseLogo.jpg|center|300px]]

'''''Transformers Adventure''''' (トランスフォーマーアドベンチャー ''Toransufōmā Adobenchā'') aired on the satellite network [[Animax]] with a Sunday, 9am timeslot. ''Adventure'' was the first Transformers cartoon to be relegated directly to satellite since ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (cartoon)#Japanese release|Beast Wars Returns]]''. It premiered on [[March 15]], 2015... only a ''day'' after the US premiere.

The localization for the series was headed by [[Keiichirō Miyoshi]], who headed the localization of the [[live-action film series|live-action ''Transformers'' films]] for Japanese markets. This also makes ''Adventure'' the first American ''Transformers'' cartoon to be released in Japan ''without'' the oversight of [[Yoshikazu Iwanami]] since [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1]]. While an effort was made to emulate the dubbing style of Iwanami, which has become synonymous with Transformers cartoons in Japan, the adlibbing was not nearly as extensive and fourth wall-breaking humor was non-existent.

Since ''Adventure'' aired on a satellite network and not a broadcast network, it was not edited for time like previous ''Transformers'' cartoons. The episodes were fully uncut and featured extended opening and ending sequences. The [[title sequence]] was comprised mostly of clips from episodes, but new animation (mostly group shots) was provided by [[LandQ Studio]]. The end credits sequence featured a newly animated "stage performance" from the cast ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZE2jqYoTTc which really must be seen to be believed]), animated by [[Nakano Design]].

As is rather well-known, ''[[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)#Japanese release|Transformers: Prime]]'' did not complete its run in Japan, ending at 52 episodes. To date, Japanese audiences have not received the ''[[Beast Hunters]]'' episodes or the ''[[Predacons Rising (Prime)|Predacons Rising]]'' film. The ''Adventure'' series did not alter the scripts to account for this, although it mostly played as a separate entity from ''Prime''.

Animax aired the episodes using the Australian broadcast order rather than the US order, which is actually the incorrect continuity sequence. As a result, "[[Sideways (episode)|Sideways]]" aired before "[[Out of Focus]]".

The [[theme song]] for the series is "[[Save the Future!!]]" by [[Mitsuhiro Oikawa]] and the ending theme is "[[Try☆Transformers Adventure↑↑↑]]" performed by the primary cast of the show (Bumblebee, Strongarm, Sideswipe, Fixit, Grimlock and Optimus Prime).

===''Transformers Adventure -Prime of Micron-''===

[[File:Prime of Micron logo.jpg|center|300px|]]

Season 2 will begin airing in 2016 under the title '''''Transformers Adventure -Prime of Micron-''''' (トランスフォーマーアドベンチャー -マイクロンの章- ''Toransufōmā Adobenchā -Maikuron no Shō-''). Incidentally, the "Maikuron no Shō" portion of the Japanese title actually translates to "Micron Chapter", but nobody tell them that.

==Notes==
*''Robots in Disguise'' did not have the most successful record when it came to premiering new episodes; in fact, every single episode of the first season was released through a different venue before it was broadcast on US television.
**The first 13 episodes of the series were released, dubbed in Mandarin Chinese, on [[December 31]], [[2014]] in mainland China, but not Hong Kong, several weeks in advance of their US broadcast. The episodes were made available on website 1905.com, with five-minute previews being free and the whole episodes available until [[January 15]] for CNY/RMB ¥19.5, which is around USD$3–4. [[You]] could even win a "fabulous" assortment of Hasbro toys (legion class) and a RMB¥30 digital coupon if you paid for the episodes!
**The show went on to to premiere on Canal J in France, Biggs in Portugal, and Cartoon Network in Hungary before the USA airings began. In particular, the English-language version of the show premiered on Cartoon Network in Australia and New Zealand about a month before the US airing; the channel aired two episodes a week instead of one, and so quickly tore through the first thirteen episodes of the season.
**The fourteenth episode debuted on Singgaporean television two months before its US airing.
**The final twelve episodes of the season were then released in two six-episode chunks via Autralian iTunes in the first two weeks of [[June]], [[2015]], allowing viewers to see the season finale three months before it aired in the US.
**Things seemed like they were going better for the second season, which managed to debut 6 episodes on US television, before Cartoon Network UK—airing two new episodes a week instead of just one—caught up to, and overtook, the US broadcast, airing the season finale around a month before the US.
*While it's possibly a coincidence, this series features [[Decepticon|antagonists]] with animal-like forms for the [[Autobot]]s to fight, much like the series' [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 cartoon)|2001 namesake predecessor]] and its featured [[Predacon (RID)|villains]].

It premiered on [[March 15]], 2015... only a ''day'' after the US premiere.

The localization for the series was headed by [[Keiichirō Miyoshi]], who headed the localization of the [[live-action film series|live-action ''Transformers'' films]] for Japanese markets. This also makes ''Adventure'' the first American ''Transformers'' cartoon to be released in Japan ''without'' the oversight of [[Yoshikazu Iwanami]] since [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1]]. While an effort was made to emulate the dubbing style of Iwanami, which has become synonymous with Transformers cartoons in Japan, the adlibbing was not nearly as extensive and fourth wall-breaking humor was non-existent.

Since ''Adventure'' aired on a satellite network and not a broadcast network, it was not edited for time like previous ''Transformers'' cartoons. The episodes were fully uncut and featured extended opening and ending sequences. The [[title sequence]] was comprised mostly of clips from episodes, but new animation (mostly group shots) was provided by [[LandQ Studio]]. The end credits sequence featured a newly animated "stage performance" from the cast ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZE2jqYoTTc which really must be seen to be believed]), animated by [[Nakano Design]].

As is rather well-known, ''[[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)#Japanese release|Transformers: Prime]]'' did not complete its run in Japan, ending at 52 episodes. To date, Japanese audiences have not received the ''[[Beast Hunters]]'' episodes or the ''[[Predacons Rising (Prime)|Predacons Rising]]'' film. The ''Adventure'' series did not alter the scripts to account for this, although it mostly played as a separate entity from ''Prime''.

Animax aired the episodes using the Australian broadcast order rather than the US order, which is actually the incorrect continuity sequence. As a result, "[[Sideways (episode)|Sideways]]" aired before "[[Out of Focus]]".

The [[theme song]] for the series is "[[Save the Future!!]]" by [[Mitsuhiro Oikawa]] and the ending theme is "[[Try☆Transformers Adventure↑↑↑]]" performed by the primary cast of the show (Bumblebee, Strongarm, Sideswipe, Fixit, Grimlock and Optimus Prime).

===''Transformers Adventure -Prime of Micron-''===

Season 2 will begin airing in 2016 under the title '''''Transformers Adventure -Prime of Micron-''''' (トランスフォーマーアドベンチャー -マイクロンの章- ''Toransufōmā Adobenchā -Maikuron no Shō-''). Incidentally, the "Maikuron no Shō" portion of the Japanese title actually translates to "Micron Chapter", but nobody tell them that.

==Notes==
*''Robots in Disguise'' did not have the most successful record when it came to premiering new episodes; in fact, every single episode of the first season was released through a different venue before it was broadcast on US television.
**The first 13 episodes of the series were released, dubbed in Mandarin Chinese, on [[December 31]], [[2014]] in mainland China, but not Hong Kong, several weeks in advance of their US broadcast. The episodes were made available on website 1905.com, with five-minute previews being free and the whole episodes available until [[January 15]] for CNY/RMB ¥19.5, which is around USD$3–4. [[You]] could even win a "fabulous" assortment of Hasbro toys (legion class) and a RMB¥30 digital coupon if you paid for the episodes!
**The show went on to to premiere on Canal J in France, Biggs in Portugal, and Cartoon Network in Hungary before the USA airings began. In particular, the English-language version of the show premiered on Cartoon Network in Australia and New Zealand about a month before the US airing; the channel aired two episodes a week instead of one, and so quickly tore through the first thirteen episodes of the season.
**The fourteenth episode debuted on Singgaporean television two months before its US airing.
**The final twelve episodes of the season were then released in two six-episode chunks via Autralian iTunes in the first two weeks of [[June]], [[2015]], allowing viewers to see the season finale three months before it aired in the US.
**Things seemed like they were going better for the second season, which managed to debut 6 episodes on US television, before Cartoon Network UK—airing two new episodes a week instead of just one—caught up to, and overtook, the US broadcast, airing the season finale around a month before the US.
*While it's possibly a coincidence, this series features [[Decepticon|antagonists]] with animal-like forms for the [[Autobot]]s to fight, much like the series' [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 cartoon)|2001 namesake predecessor]] and its featured [[Predacon (RID)|villains]].

'''With Bumblebee and Strongarm stuck at an impound lot, Grimlock must find a disguise when Quillfire returns.'''

==Synopsis==
Just outside the carnival grounds, [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]] is playing mechanical bull with [[Silverhound]] and contacts [[Fixit (RID)|Fixit]] for info on the beastly Decepticon. As [[Grimlock (WFC)|Grimlock]] watches from nearby trees, Bumblebee is tossed and lands on [[Strongarm (RID)|Strongarm]], and the Dinobot sees his moment to charge in and attack. Silverhound promptly throws him before beginning to flee, resulting in Grimlock ending up in the midst of the carnival-going [[human]]s. Bumblebee observes the unfolding disaster, however Strongarm is able to prevent Silverhound from fleeing and also comes up with a cover story for Grimlock, telling the humans that Grimlock's part of a new exhibit.

The next day, Silverhound is safely locked up in a [[stasis pod]], however Bumblebee announces that Grimlock can no longer go on missions in public as he's too hard to explain away hen seen by the public. Later, Grimlock is smashing barrels when Fixit reports that [[Quillfire]]'s insignia has been found around [[Crown City]]. Though Grimlock's keen to go, Bumblebee's earlier order stands, — Bumblebee and Strongarm head out without him. As night falls, Fixit finds Grimlock sitting dejectedly on a bus and reveals the list of potential disguises he's made up for Grimlock. Though the Dinobot isn't enthusiastic about the first few, the last catches his attention.

Bumblebee and Strongarm find Quillfire raiding an auto parts store. Bumblebee heads around the block to hem the Decepticon in, but when Strongarm tries a direct approach, Quillfire reveals the [[Mini-Con]]s [[Back]] and [[Forth]], whose magnetic powers let them form a barricade between them and Strongarm. Unfortunately Bumblebee is struck in traffic, and Strongarm is soon buried under garbage skips. Quillfire and his Mini-Cons start leaving with their plunder, knocking Bumblebee out of the way as they go, and a chase ensues. Back uses his magnetic powers to fling street signage at the Autobots, and Quillfire jettisons most of his load, along with the Mini-Cons, in an attempt to stop them before finally taking both of them out with his quills. He's about to move in and finish them off when the police arrive and he decides to flee rather than risk capture, letting slip about the "island" where his new associates are based.

Some hours later, Bumblebee and Strongarm recover consciousness to find themselves in an impound lot, immobilized with wheel clamps which, together with Quillfire's toxins, prevent them from transforming. They discuss the situation with Fixit and though Grimlock is keen to go free them, Denny and Russell are dispatched to help instead. Fixit suggests Grimlock try on his new disguise, and the Dinobot is soon decked out in an assemblage to make him resemble a dinosaur-themed crane. With Fixit riding in the cab, he rolls out Flintstones style.

Denny and Russell reach the impound lot pretending to be tow truck operators, but are unable to produce a work order to gain entry, so instead have to sneak inside when an actual tow truck arrives with a car. They soon find Bumblebee and Strongarm and set about freeing them. Russell successfully sabotages the lot's security, allowing the two Autobots to drive out, and a short time later, Strongarm picks up a silent alarm at a nearby auto parts distributorship.

Meanwhile Fixit and Grimlock are holding up traffic when the former picks up the same silent alarm alert. They reach the scene first, however trapped in his disguise, Grimlock ends up toppling over. Back and Forth unleash their opposing magnetic powers on Grimlock, threatening to tear him apart. Fixit uses his drill hand to fling parts at the two Mini-Cons, resulting in the three Decepticons fleeing shortly before Bumblebee and Strongarm arrive. Though skeptical of Grimlock's new disguise, Bumblebee is convinced to let him come along. Fixit determines that Quillfire's next likely target is a nearby truck stop, so they leave the humans behind and head there. On arrival they're ambushed by the Mini-Cons, but Bumblebee takes out Back by using the Mini-Con's own power against him, and Strongarm tricks Forth into trying to move a bus, resulting in him collapsing from exhaustion. The pair close in on Quillfire, but he gets them to drive into a maintenance pit where they become stuck. The Con attempts to escape, but Grimlock uses his crane hook to catch him by the rear bumper and spin him around repeatedly.

With Quillfire loaded onto Strongarm's trailer, they start back to pick up Denny and Russell, however a family spot Grimlock. Luckily they just believe he's a crane, and Bumblebee announces Grimlock's good to go on missions again. Grimlock sings happily as they continue on their way.

==Quotes==
"No problem, I'll just get back to my target practice. You never know when you might be attacked by barrels!"
:—'''Grimlock''' keeps his spirits up.

"Please excuse the traffic delay. This construction crane was specifically designed to look like a dinosaur and to help build schools... because... everyone knows children love dinosaurs." 
"I'm a dino-crane! A happy dino-crane! Dino-dino-dino. Dino-craaaane!"
:—'''Fixit''' and '''Grimlock''', masters of disguise.

"Is this revolution cursed?!"
:—'''Quillfire''' is not having a good day.

==Notes==
===Animation and technical errors===
* When Quillfire hits Bumblebee and Strongarm with his spikes, they're clearly seen sinking quite deep into their armor, even leaving visible holes when Russel pulls couple of them out. However, Bumblebee and Strongarm appear completely patched up right in their next shot.

===Continuity notes===
* The carnival was previously seen in Quillfire's introductory episode "[[Adventures in Bumblebee-Sitting!]]".
* Hank and Butch cameo as part of the crowd at the carnival. Hank should technically recognize Grimlock from having seen him in the scrapyard in "[[More than Meets the Eye (RID)|More than Meets the Eye]]".
* Among the cars in the impound lot is a copy of [[Knock Out (Prime)|Knock Out]]'s vehicle mode. Strongarm may have noticed this, because she claimed to be with, "common criminals," and given Knock Out was a decepticon, he is likely regarded as a criminal, so Strongarm might have made the comparison.

===Prisoner manifest===
* ''In stasis'': [[Hammerstrike (RID)|Hammerstrike]], [[Chop Shop (RID)|Chop Shop]], [[Terrashock]], [[Filch]], [[Minitron]], [[Ped]], "that one with all the eyes", [[Malodor]] and the [[Skunkticon]]s, [[Nightstrike]], [[Vertebreak (RID)|Vertebreak]], [[Octopunch (RID)|Octopunch]], [[Headlock (RID)|Headlock]], [[Scowl (RID)|Scowl]], "[[Fancyclaws]]", [[Zizza]], [[Pseudo]], [[Fracture (RID)|Fracture]], [[Airazor (RID)|Airazor]], [[Divebomb (RID)|Divebomb]], [[Underbite]], [[Backtrack (RID)|Backtrack]], [[Ransack (RID Mini-Con)|Ransack]], [[Polarclaw]], [[Razorpaw]], [[Swelter]], [[Glacius]], [[Torpor]], [[Simacore]], [[Axiom]], [[Theorem]], [[Scorponok (WFC)|Scorponok]], [[Crazybolt (RID)|Crazybolt]], [[Slicedice]], [[Bludgeon (RID 2015)|Bludgeon]], [[Clout]], [[Bisk]], [[Hammer (RID)|Hammer]], [[Anvil (RID)|Anvil]], [[Silverhound]], [[Quillfire]], [[Back]], [[Forth]]
* ''Known at large'': [[Steeljaw (RID)|Steeljaw]], [[Kickback (FOC)|Kickback]], [[Saberhorn]], [[Glowstrike]], several unnamed Glowstrike/Scorponok associates, [[Springload]], [[Groundpounder (RID)|Groundpounder]], [[Thunderhoof]], [[Clampdown (RID)|Clampdown]], [[Overload (RID)|Overload]]
* ''Released'': Grimlock
* ''Countless others all missing, presumed at large''

===Transformers references===

* Grimlock choosing a crane as his disguise? Where would he ever get that idea....[[Grimlock (RID)|Hmmm...]]

===Real-world references===
*As Russell works to mess up the impound lot's security so he and Denny can get Bumblebee and Strongarm out, the incidental music starts parodying the ''Mission: Impossible'' theme.

===Continuity notes===
* Guess who's back? Soundwave and Laserbeak previously appeared all the way back in "[[Deadlock]]", where [[Jack Darby|Jack]], [[Miko]] and [[Raf]] and managed to trap him in the Shadowzone. Fixit exposits this information to the humans (and presumably for the benefit of viewers who haven't watched ''Prime''), even noting that his defeat took place aboard the ''[[Nemesis (Prime)|Nemesis]]''.
* Bumblebee name-drops all three of the main humans who appeared in ''Prime'': Jack, Raf, and Miko, and remembers the time that they were also trapped in the Shadowzone, which happened in the [[Shadowzone (episode)|eponymous episode]].
* Fixit mentions that [[Megatron (WFC)|Megatron]] is "light-years away", suggesting that the former Decepticon leader is still in his self-imposed exile after the events of "[[Predacons Rising]]".

* [[Unidentified Sharkticon|Another]] [[Sharkticon (Prime)|Sharkticon]] appears, this one sporting a more traditional color scheme in line with the species' [[Sharkticon (G1)|Generation 1]] counterparts. As well, unlike Hammerstrike, he does not have extruding eyes, so looks more like a regular shark. It resembles more of Hammerstrike's Kreon incarnation.
* 4 more [[Vehicon (Prime)|Vehicon]] soldiers show up, one being red and black, another being orange and black, and another being teal and black. The forth is unclear, but is mostly a darker shade of blue.

* Guess who's back? Soundwave and Laserbeak previously appeared all the way back in "[[Deadlock]]", where [[Jack Darby|Jack]], [[Miko]] and [[Raf]] and managed to trap him in the Shadowzone. Fixit exposits this information to the humans (and presumably for the benefit of viewers who haven't watched ''Prime''), even noting that his defeat took place aboard the ''[[Nemesis (Prime)|Nemesis]]''.
* Bumblebee name-drops all three of the main humans who appeared in ''Prime'': Jack, Raf, and Miko, and remembers the time that they were also trapped in the Shadowzone, which happened in the [[Shadowzone (episode)|eponymous episode]].
* Fixit mentions that [[Megatron (WFC)|Megatron]] is "light-years away", suggesting that the former Decepticon leader is still in his self-imposed exile after the events of "[[Predacons Rising]]".
* More of the Fixit-like [[Mini-Con]]s we saw in "[[Deep Trouble]]" are working in the Decepticon base.

* [[The Brigand|Another]] [[Sharkticon (Prime)|Sharkticon]] appears, this one sporting a more traditional color scheme in line with the species' [[Sharkticon (G1)|Generation 1]] counterparts. As well, unlike Hammerstrike, he does not have extruding eyes, so looks more like a regular shark. It resembles more of Hammerstrike's Kreon incarnation.
* 4 more [[Vehicon (Prime)|Vehicon]] soldiers show up, one being red and black, another being orange and black, and another being teal and black. The forth is unclear, but is mostly a darker shade of blue.

Its cargo of [[stasis pod]]s, carrying several hundred of the most-wanted [[Decepticon]]s, are scattered across the countryside, releasing the dangerous Decepticons within. The [[Mini-Con]] [[Fixit (RID)|Fixit]] sends a mayday, however on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]], now working as a street cop for the repopulated planet, is instead alerted by a vision of [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]]. Optimus gives Bumblebee a new mission on Earth, sending the young Autobot to the nearest [[space bridge]]. Bumblebee unwillingly finds himself accompanied to Earth by his cop partner [[Strongarm (RID)|Strongarm]] and the delinquent [[Sideswipe (WFC)|Sideswipe]]. Joined by the ex-Decepticon prisoner [[Grimlock (WFC)|Grimlock]], and two [[human]]s — [[Denny Clay]], owner of a [[Vintage Salvage Depot for the Discriminating Nostalgist]] (a scrapyard) and his son [[Russell Clay|Russell]], and later bounty hunter [[Drift (RID)|Drift]], his two Mini-Cons [[Jetstorm (RID)|Jetstorm]] and [[Slipstream (RID)|Slipstream]], and [[Windblade (RID)|Windblade]] are added to the team — Bumblebee and his team must track down the escaped prisoners and prevent harm coming to Earth or its native population. Chief among the threats poised by the Decepticons is the charismatic [[Steeljaw (RID)|Steeljaw]], who seeks to organize the escaped prisoners into an effective cabal to conquer the planet.

==Japanese release==
''Robots in Disguise'' was released in Japan as two separately branded series.
===''Transformers Adventure''===
[[Image:TransformersAdventureJapaneseLogo.jpg|center|300px]]

'''''Transformers Adventure''''' (トランスフォーマーアドベンチャー ''Toransufōmā Adobenchā'') aired on the satellite network [[Animax]] with a Sunday, 9am timeslot. ''Adventure'' was the first Transformers cartoon to be relegated directly to satellite since ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (cartoon)#Japanese release|Beast Wars Returns]]''. It premiered on [[March 15]], 2015... only a ''day'' after the US premiere.

The localization for the series was headed by [[Keiichirō Miyoshi]], who headed the localization of the [[live-action film series|live-action ''Transformers'' films]] for Japanese markets. This also makes ''Adventure'' the first American ''Transformers'' cartoon to be released in Japan ''without'' the oversight of [[Yoshikazu Iwanami]] since [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1]]. While an effort was made to emulate the dubbing style of Iwanami, which has become synonymous with Transformers cartoons in Japan, the adlibbing was not nearly as extensive and fourth wall-breaking humor was non-existent.

Since ''Adventure'' aired on a satellite network and not a broadcast network, it was not edited for time like previous ''Transformers'' cartoons. The episodes were fully uncut and featured extended opening and ending sequences. The [[title sequence]] was comprised mostly of clips from episodes, but new animation (mostly group shots) was provided by [[LandQ Studio]]. The end credits sequence featured a newly animated "stage performance" from the cast ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZE2jqYoTTc which really must be seen to be believed]), animated by [[Nakano Design]].

As is rather well-known, ''[[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)#Japanese release|Transformers: Prime]]'' did not complete its run in Japan, ending at 52 episodes. To date, Japanese audiences have not received the ''[[Beast Hunters]]'' episodes or the ''[[Predacons Rising (Prime)|Predacons Rising]]'' film. The ''Adventure'' series did not alter the scripts to account for this, although it mostly played as a separate entity from ''Prime''.

Animax aired the episodes using the Australian broadcast order rather than the US order, which is actually the incorrect continuity sequence. As a result, "[[Sideways (episode)|Sideways]]" aired before "[[Out of Focus]]".

The [[theme song]] for the series is "[[Save the Future!!]]" by [[Mitsuhiro Oikawa]] and the ending theme is "[[Try☆Transformers Adventure↑↑↑]]" performed by the primary cast of the show (Bumblebee, Strongarm, Sideswipe, Fixit, Grimlock and Optimus Prime).

===''Transformers Adventure -Prime of Micron-''===

[[File:Prime of Micron logo.jpg|center|300px|]]

Season 2 will begin airing in 2016 under the title '''''Transformers Adventure -Prime of Micron-''''' (トランスフォーマーアドベンチャー -マイクロンの章- ''Toransufōmā Adobenchā -Maikuron no Shō-''). Incidentally, the "Maikuron no Shō" portion of the Japanese title actually translates to "Micron Chapter", but nobody tell them that.

==Notes==
*''Robots in Disguise'' did not have the most successful record when it came to premiering new episodes; in fact, every single episode of the first season was released through a different venue before it was broadcast on US television.
**The first 13 episodes of the series were released, dubbed in Mandarin Chinese, on [[December 31]], [[2014]] in mainland China, but not Hong Kong, several weeks in advance of their US broadcast. The episodes were made available on website 1905.com, with five-minute previews being free and the whole episodes available until [[January 15]] for CNY/RMB ¥19.5, which is around USD$3–4. [[You]] could even win a "fabulous" assortment of Hasbro toys (legion class) and a RMB¥30 digital coupon if you paid for the episodes!
**The show went on to to premiere on Canal J in France, Biggs in Portugal, and Cartoon Network in Hungary before the USA airings began. In particular, the English-language version of the show premiered on Cartoon Network in Australia and New Zealand about a month before the US airing; the channel aired two episodes a week instead of one, and so quickly tore through the first thirteen episodes of the season.
**The fourteenth episode debuted on Singgaporean television two months before its US airing.
**The final twelve episodes of the season were then released in two six-episode chunks via Autralian iTunes in the first two weeks of [[June]], [[2015]], allowing viewers to see the season finale three months before it aired in the US.
**Things seemed like they were going better for the second season, which managed to debut 6 episodes on US television, before Cartoon Network UK—airing two new episodes a week instead of just one—caught up to, and overtook, the US broadcast, airing the season finale around a month before the US.
*While it's possibly a coincidence, this series features [[Decepticon|antagonists]] with animal-like forms for the [[Autobot]]s to fight, much like the series' [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 cartoon)|2001 namesake predecessor]] and its featured [[Predacon (RID)|villains]].

==Japanese release==
''Robots in Disguise'' was released in Japan as two separately branded series.
===''Transformers Adventure''===
[[Image:TransformersAdventureJapaneseLogo.jpg|center|300px]]

'''''Transformers Adventure''''' (トランスフォーマーアドベンチャー ''Toransufōmā Adobenchā'') aired on the satellite network [[Animax]] with a Sunday, 9am timeslot. ''Adventure'' was the first Transformers cartoon to be relegated directly to satellite since ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (cartoon)#Japanese release|Beast Wars Returns]]''. It premiered on [[March 15]], 2015... only a ''day'' after the US premiere.

The localization for the series was headed by [[Keiichirō Miyoshi]], who headed the localization of the [[live-action film series|live-action ''Transformers'' films]] for Japanese markets. This also makes ''Adventure'' the first American ''Transformers'' cartoon to be released in Japan ''without'' the oversight of [[Yoshikazu Iwanami]] since [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1]]. While an effort was made to emulate the dubbing style of Iwanami, which has become synonymous with Transformers cartoons in Japan, the adlibbing was not nearly as extensive and fourth wall-breaking humor was non-existent.

Since ''Adventure'' aired on a satellite network and not a broadcast network, it was not edited for time like previous ''Transformers'' cartoons. The episodes were fully uncut and featured extended opening and ending sequences. The [[title sequence]] was comprised mostly of clips from episodes, but new animation (mostly group shots) was provided by [[LandQ Studio]]. The end credits sequence featured a newly animated "stage performance" from the cast ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZE2jqYoTTc which really must be seen to be believed]), animated by [[Nakano Design]].

As is rather well-known, ''[[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)#Japanese release|Transformers: Prime]]'' did not complete its run in Japan, ending at 52 episodes. To date, Japanese audiences have not received the ''[[Beast Hunters]]'' episodes or the ''[[Predacons Rising (Prime)|Predacons Rising]]'' film. The ''Adventure'' series did not alter the scripts to account for this, although it mostly played as a separate entity from ''Prime''.

Animax aired the episodes using the Australian broadcast order rather than the US order, which is actually the incorrect continuity sequence. As a result, "[[Sideways (episode)|Sideways]]" aired before "[[Out of Focus]]".

The [[theme song]] for the series is "[[Save the Future!!]]" by [[Mitsuhiro Oikawa]] and the ending theme is "[[Try☆Transformers Adventure↑↑↑]]" performed by the primary cast of the show (Bumblebee, Strongarm, Sideswipe, Fixit, Grimlock and Optimus Prime).

===''Transformers Adventure -Prime of Micron-''===

[[File:Prime of Micron logo.jpg|center|300px|]]

Season 2 will begin airing in 2016 under the title '''''Transformers Adventure -Prime of Micron-''''' (トランスフォーマーアドベンチャー -マイクロンの章- ''Toransufōmā Adobenchā -Maikuron no Shō-''). Incidentally, the "Maikuron no Shō" portion of the Japanese title actually translates to "Micron Chapter", but nobody tell them that.

==Notes==
*''Robots in Disguise'' did not have the most successful record when it came to premiering new episodes; in fact, every single episode of the first season was released through a different venue before it was broadcast on US television.
**The first 13 episodes of the series were released, dubbed in Mandarin Chinese, on [[December 31]], [[2014]] in mainland China, but not Hong Kong, several weeks in advance of their US broadcast.

**The show went on to to premiere on Canal J in France, Biggs in Portugal, and Cartoon Network in Hungary before the USA airings began. In particular, the English-language version of the show premiered on Cartoon Network in Australia and New Zealand about a month before the US airing; the channel aired two episodes a week instead of one, and so quickly tore through the first thirteen episodes of the season.
**The fourteenth episode debuted on Singgaporean television two months before its US airing.
**The final twelve episodes of the season were then released in two six-episode chunks via Autralian iTunes in the first two weeks of [[June]], [[2015]], allowing viewers to see the season finale three months before it aired in the US.
**Things seemed like they were going better for the second season, which managed to debut 6 episodes on US television, before Cartoon Network UK—airing two new episodes a week instead of just one—caught up to, and overtook, the US broadcast, airing the season finale around a month before the US.
*While it's possibly a coincidence, this series features [[Decepticon|antagonists]] with animal-like forms for the [[Autobot]]s to fight, much like the series' [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 cartoon)|2001 namesake predecessor]] and its featured [[Predacon (RID)|villains]].

==Overview==
Years after the [[Great War (Prime)|Great War]], the Autobot prison ship ''[[Alchemor]]'' crashes on [[Earth]] near [[Crown City]]. Its cargo of [[stasis pod]]s, carrying several hundred of the most-wanted [[Decepticon]]s, are scattered across the countryside, releasing the dangerous Decepticons within. The [[Mini-Con]] [[Fixit (RID)|Fixit]] sends a mayday, however on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]], now working as a street cop for the repopulated planet, is instead alerted by a vision of [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]]. Optimus gives Bumblebee a new mission on Earth, sending the young Autobot to the nearest [[space bridge]]. Bumblebee unwillingly finds himself accompanied to Earth by his cop partner [[Strongarm (RID)|Strongarm]] and the delinquent [[Sideswipe (WFC)|Sideswipe]]. Joined by the ex-Decepticon prisoner [[Grimlock (WFC)|Grimlock]], and two [[human]]s — [[Denny Clay]], owner of a [[Vintage Salvage Depot for the Discriminating Nostalgist]] (a scrapyard) and his son [[Russell Clay|Russell]], and later bounty hunter [[Drift (RID)|Drift]], his two Mini-Cons [[Jetstorm (RID)|Jetstorm]] and [[Slipstream (RID)|Slipstream]], and [[Windblade (RID)|Windblade]] are added to the team — Bumblebee and his team must track down the escaped prisoners and prevent harm coming to Earth or its native population. Chief among the threats poised by the Decepticons is the charismatic [[Steeljaw (RID)|Steeljaw]], who seeks to organize the escaped prisoners into an effective cabal to conquer the planet.

==Japanese release==
''Robots in Disguise'' was released in Japan as two separately branded series.
===''Transformers Adventure''===
[[Image:TransformersAdventureJapaneseLogo.jpg|center|300px]]

'''''Transformers Adventure''''' (トランスフォーマーアドベンチャー ''Toransufōmā Adobenchā'') aired on the satellite network [[Animax]] with a Sunday, 9am timeslot. ''Adventure'' was the first Transformers cartoon to be relegated directly to satellite since ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (cartoon)#Japanese release|Beast Wars Returns]]''. It premiered on [[March 15]], 2015... only a ''day'' after the US premiere.

The localization for the series was headed by [[Keiichirō Miyoshi]], who headed the localization of the [[live-action film series|live-action ''Transformers'' films]] for Japanese markets. This also makes ''Adventure'' the first American ''Transformers'' cartoon to be released in Japan ''without'' the oversight of [[Yoshikazu Iwanami]] since [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1]]. While an effort was made to emulate the dubbing style of Iwanami, which has become synonymous with Transformers cartoons in Japan, the adlibbing was not nearly as extensive and fourth wall-breaking humor was non-existent.

Since ''Adventure'' aired on a satellite network and not a broadcast network, it was not edited for time like previous ''Transformers'' cartoons. The episodes were fully uncut and featured extended opening and ending sequences. The [[title sequence]] was comprised mostly of clips from episodes, but new animation (mostly group shots) was provided by [[LandQ Studio]]. The end credits sequence featured a newly animated "stage performance" from the cast ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZE2jqYoTTc which really must be seen to be believed]), animated by [[Nakano Design]].

As is rather well-known, ''[[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)#Japanese release|Transformers: Prime]]'' did not complete its run in Japan, ending at 52 episodes. To date, Japanese audiences have not received the ''[[Beast Hunters]]'' episodes or the ''[[Predacons Rising (Prime)|Predacons Rising]]'' film. The ''Adventure'' series did not alter the scripts to account for this, although it mostly played as a separate entity from ''Prime''.

Animax aired the episodes using the Australian broadcast order rather than the US order, which is actually the incorrect continuity sequence. As a result, "[[Sideways (episode)|Sideways]]" aired before "[[Out of Focus]]".

The [[theme song]] for the series is "[[Save the Future!!]]" by [[Mitsuhiro Oikawa]] and the ending theme is "[[Try☆Transformers Adventure↑↑↑]]" performed by the primary cast of the show (Bumblebee, Strongarm, Sideswipe, Fixit, Grimlock and Optimus Prime).

===''Transformers Adventure -Prime of Micron-''===

[[File:Prime of Micron logo.jpg|center|300px|]]

Season 2 will begin airing in 2016 under the title '''''Transformers Adventure -Prime of Micron-''''' (トランスフォーマーアドベンチャー -マイクロンの章- ''Toransufōmā Adobenchā -Maikuron no Shō-''). Incidentally, the "Maikuron no Shō" portion of the Japanese title actually translates to "Micron Chapter", but nobody tell them that.

==Notes==
*''Robots in Disguise'' did not have the most successful record when it came to premiering new episodes; in fact, every single episode of the first season was released through a different venue before it was broadcast on US television.
**The first 13 episodes of the series were released, dubbed in Mandarin Chinese, on [[December 31]], [[2014]] in mainland China, but not Hong Kong, several weeks in advance of their US broadcast. The episodes were made available on website 1905.com, with five-minute previews being free and the whole episodes available until [[January 15]] for CNY/RMB ¥19.5, which is around USD$3–4. [[You]] could even win a "fabulous" assortment of Hasbro toys (legion class) and a RMB¥30 digital coupon if you paid for the episodes!
**The show went on to to premiere on Canal J in France, Biggs in Portugal, and Cartoon Network in Hungary before the USA airings began. In particular, the English-language version of the show premiered on Cartoon Network in Australia and New Zealand about a month before the US airing; the channel aired two episodes a week instead of one, and so quickly tore through the first thirteen episodes of the season.
**The fourteenth episode debuted on Singgaporean television two months before its US airing.
**The final twelve episodes of the season were then released in two six-episode chunks via Autralian iTunes in the first two weeks of [[June]], [[2015]], allowing viewers to see the season finale three months before it aired in the US.
**Things seemed like they were going better for the second season, which managed to debut 6 episodes on US television, before Cartoon Network UK—airing two new episodes a week instead of just one—caught up to, and overtook, the US broadcast, airing the season finale around a month before the US.
*While it's possibly a coincidence, this series features [[Decepticon|antagonists]] with animal-like forms for the [[Autobot]]s to fight, much like the series' [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 cartoon)|2001 namesake predecessor]] and its featured [[Predacon (RID)|villains]].

* Guess who's back? Soundwave and Laserbeak previously appeared all the way back in "[[Deadlock]]", where [[Raf]] and [[Miko]] managed to trap him in the Shadowzone. Fixit exposits this information to the humans (and presumably for the benefit of viewers who haven't watched ''Prime''), even noting that his defeat took place aboard the ''[[Nemesis (Prime)|Nemesis]]''.
* Bumblebee name-drops all three of the main humans who appeared in ''Prime'': [[Jack Darby|Jack]], Raf, and Miko, and remembers the time that they were also trapped in the Shadowzone, which happened in the [[Shadowzone (episode)|eponymous episode]].
* Fixit mentions that [[Megatron (WFC)|Megatron]] is "light-years away", suggesting that the former Decepticon leader is still in his self-imposed exile after the events of "[[Predacons Rising]]".

===Prisoner manifest===
* ''In stasis'': [[Hammerstrike (RID)|Hammerstrike]], [[Chop Shop (RID)|Chop Shop]], [[Terrashock]], [[Filch]], [[Minitron]], [[Ped]], "that one with all the eyes", [[Malodor]] and the [[Skunkticon]]s, [[Nightstrike]], [[Vertebreak (RID)|Vertebreak]], [[Octopunch (RID)|Octopunch]], [[Headlock (RID)|Headlock]], [[Scowl (RID)|Scowl]], "[[Fancyclaws]]", [[Zizza]], [[Pseudo]], [[Fracture (RID)|Fracture]], [[Airazor (RID)|Airazor]], [[Divebomb (RID)|Divebomb]], [[Underbite]], [[Backtrack (RID)|Backtrack]], [[Ransack (RID Mini-Con)|Ransack]], [[Polarclaw]], [[Razorpaw]], [[Swelter]], [[Glacius]], [[Torpor]], [[Simacore]], [[Axiom]], [[Theorem]], [[Scorponok (WFC)|Scorponok]], [[Crazybolt (RID)|Crazybolt]], [[Slicedice]], [[Bludgeon (RID 2015)|Bludgeon]], [[Clout]], [[Bisk]], [[Hammer (RID)|Hammer]], [[Anvil (RID)|Anvil]], [[Silverhound]], [[Quillfire]], [[Back]], [[Forth]]

* ''Released'': Grimlock
* ''Countless others all missing, presumed at large''
===Transformers references===
* Another [[Sharkticon]] appears, this one sporting a more traditional color scheme in line with the species' [[Sharkticon (G1)|Generation 1]] counterparts. As well, unlike Hammerstrike, he does not have extruding eyes, so looks more like a regular shark. It resembles more of Hammerstrike's Kreon incarnation.
* 4 more [[Vehicon (Prime)|Vehicon]] soldiers show up, one being red and black, another being orange and black, and another being teal and black. The forth is unclear, but is mostly a darker shade of blue.
* A whole load of the Fixit like [[Mini-con]]s are working for Glowstrike, but only because they are forced to wear [[Restriction Collar]]s. They prohibit them from transforming or using their weapons.

* ''In stasis'': [[Hammerstrike (RID)|Hammerstrike]], [[Chop Shop (RID)|Chop Shop]], [[Terrashock]], [[Filch]], [[Minitron]], [[Ped]], "that one with all the eyes", [[Malodor]] and the [[Skunkticon]]s, [[Nightstrike]], [[Vertebreak (RID)|Vertebreak]], [[Octopunch (RID)|Octopunch]], [[Headlock (RID)|Headlock]], [[Scowl (RID)|Scowl]], "[[Fancyclaws]]", [[Zizza]], [[Pseudo]], [[Fracture (RID)|Fracture]], [[Airazor (RID)|Airazor]], [[Divebomb (RID)|Divebomb]], [[Underbite]], [[Backtrack (RID)|Backtrack]], [[Ransack (RID Mini-Con)|Ransack]], [[Polarclaw]], [[Razorpaw]], [[Swelter]], [[Glacius]], [[Torpor]], [[Simacore]], [[Axiom]], [[Theorem]], [[Scorponok (WFC)|Scorponok]], [[Crazybolt (RID)|Crazybolt]], [[Slicedice]], [[Bludgeon (RID 2015)|Bludgeon]], [[Clout]], [[Bisk]], [[Hammer (RID)|Hammer]], [[Anvil (RID)|Anvil]], [[Silverhound]], [[Quillfire]], [[Back]], [[Forth]]
* ''Known at large'': [[Steeljaw (RID)|Steeljaw]], [[Kickback (FOC)|Kickback]], [[Saberhorn]], [[Glowstrike]], several unnamed Glowstrike/Scorponok associates, [[Springload]], [[Groundpounder (RID)|Groundpounder]], [[Thunderhoof]], [[Clampdown (RID)|Clampdown]], [[Overload (RID)|Overload]]
* ''Released'': Grimlock
* ''Countless others all missing, presumed at large''
===Transformers references===
* Another [[Sharkticon]] appears, this one sporting a more traditional color scheme in line with the species' [[Sharkticon (G1)|Generation 1]] counterparts. As well, unlike Hammerstrike, he does not have extruding eyes, so looks more like a regular shark. It resembles more of Hammerstrike's Kreon incarnation.
* 4 more [[Vehicon (Prime)|Vehicon]] soldiers show up, one being red and black, another being orange and black, and another being teal and black. The forth is unclear, but is mostly a darker shade of blue.
* A whole load of the Fixit like [[Mini-con[[s are working for Glowstrike, but only because they are forced to wear [[Restriction Collars]]. They prohibit them from transforming or using their weapons.
