If you're remotely interested in transforming robots from the G1 or Beast Wars era, you need to go to YouTube and watch the TF: Animated episode Along Came A Spider NOW. Massive spoiler for why below the cut.
In this continuity? Blackarachnia is a horribly mutated version of Elita One!!!
This is, just ... BEST IDEA EVER. I'm loving the backstory for this show, and a nod to the old school fans like that is just lovely. Poor Elita. Poor Optimus. Poor Sentinel One, who we now know has every reason to hate Prime with a passion.
I guess that buried ship must have been the one carrying Megatron and company. Wonder how it ended up buried there, and if we will some day get flashbacks on that? Maybe her fight with the Energon-enhanced spiders woke them all up.
Also intriguing: when Blackarachnia says she would have been dissected if she went back to Cybertron? Optimus does not argue with her.
In additional cool TF news, there are loads and loads of cool pictures of awesome things from ToyFair up on the net:
Robot Heroes including Arcee, Rhinox and Waspinator who were in my top twenty characters I wanted to see in this format. Also Rumble! Just to keep the debate going, he is red *g*.
More Classics including colour pictures of Octane and the first images of Galvatron!
Animated Toys! Since for some reason I couldn't get them to load at Seibertron. OMG WHY CAN'T I BUY SOUNDWAVE NOW?!
