Only fictional appearance in commerical?
"These spots were the only American animation produced for dozens of characters from the toyline's later years." Hmm, are there any cases where a TV commerical is the only fictional appearance of any kind for a character? Some of the Micromasters, perhaps? JW 17:00, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- The MM Combiners, yeah, and possibly one or two of the Mega/Ultra Pretenders. Not sure about the Action Masters -- the tail end of the US comics and Spotlight: Arcee might've covered them all. -- Repowers 17:29, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
Split?
This page is already getting huge, and the post-G1 stuff is barely started. Considering there's probably a boatload of UT commercials, would it make sense to split the page up by franchise? It could then be added to the franchise navigation links for each major franchise. -- Repowers 21:10, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
Cybertron commercials
I seem to remember a commercial where a kid sort of dressed in an Autobot uniform runs up to a large door. He unlocks it with an Optimus Prime Cyber Planet Key prop. I think the actor was a guest at BotCon 2005. Of course our BotCon 2005 page is pretty half-ass at the moment so we can't even check our own info. --FFN 19:47, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
Robots in Disguise narrator
Does anyone else think the narrator for the RID commercials (all but the first version of Prime/Magnus) sounds like Neil Kaplan? I think it is him, but I'm not certain enough to put it on the page. Would e-mailing him be sufficient for confirming it? --Tigerpaw28 01:45, 22 April 2009 (EDT)
2007 Film TV spot
Old, yeah, but I was bored. Browsing through my computer, found a TV spot that features instrumental portions of Linkin Park's "What I've Done". Opens up with Ron's "My son here - buy his first car" voice-over, cut to Bobby's "Driver don't pick the car" line; 'Bee going out to send the signal; "Some will come to defend us"; 'Bee fully transforming sequence on defending the teens before cutting to post Barricade fight; "Most will come to destroy us"; Scorponok's money shot of leaping out of the desert; Starscream flipping onto Hoover Dam; pilots scrambling to F-22; Autobots' arrival; Sam's "We have to get into the car" over a quick montage alongside Epps' "Bring it!" before finally ending with Bonecrusher crashing into the bus. ...that was a mouthful. Add it in? Can't find it on YouTube anymore, so I'm just glad to have saved it when I found it back then. --Lonegamer78 14:59, 1 July 2009 (EDT)
- That sounds like it could be the 2nd full trailer. However, there's a lot of scenes earlier in that trailer which aren't in your description. That has me intrigued. If the commercial you have doesn't match anything listed, then by all means add it in! I want to make our list of commercials the most complete it can be. The commercial can be uploaded to my YouTube account, if you'd like, so that we have a copy to link to. --Tigerpaw28 23:24, 1 July 2009 (EDT)
ROTF toy commercial!
[1] Featuring original CGI animation of Prime and some non-Cullen voice. --ItsWalky 01:32, 20 May 2009 (EDT)
- I found that on Monday along with several other first Movie toy commercials on Hasbro's site. I'll be adding those when I do the movie update. --Tigerpaw28 22:55, 20 May 2009 (EDT)
Some new comercials were just uploaded about an hour ago. [2][3] [4]
