Armada Episode 8 - Palace / Micron Legend Episode 8 - Takara
IT'S A GOOD ONE! We run a little long this time, with an episode that we have naught but good things to say about, from gorgeous visuals to writing that makes Armada feel COOL. Jo spots an epic JoJo Reference, Wads tells a funny lie about Demolishor's catchphrase, and we dance around the implications of the Ancient Aliens trope. Plus: what if Cosmos was Cosmos?

Armada Episode 7 - Carnival / Micron Legend Episode 7 - Ōsawagi
Billy and Fred make their triumphant(?) return alongside lead writer Ryō Motohira, with an episode that breaks from the existing formula... which may or may not be a good thing. What was Starscream's Mini-Con's name? What does an observatory do? How long will Jolt's patience last? All that and more! Don't have a cow, man!

Armada Episode 6 - Jungle / Micron Legend Episode 6 - Mamori
What might have been the best episode yet gets let down by some less-than-stellar animation, as we finally visit a new environment that isn't just the previous one recoloured. We reflect on Transformers' great history of goons as Starscream takes centre stage, while Rad gets to reinforce his primary character trait and cement the episode's theme, appealing to Wada's hatred of subtext. Just log on and start posting!

Armada Episode 5 - Soldier / Micron Legend Episode 5 - Senshi
In this week's episode, we trade "cliffs and canyons" for "cliffs and canyons, but blue this time", as we try to figure out whether this one has a moral or just a bunch of things that happen. Megatron proves to have poor leadership priorities, Jolt proves to be the apotheosis of Archerian design principles, and Red Alert proves to have two different visuals for the same toy gimmick. PLUS: bum-rotors.

Armada Episode 4 - Comrade / Micron Legend Episode 4 - Shinka
Wads may be incapable of perceiving or understanding beauty, but that won't stop us from taking a look at the first of Armada's "Mini-Con-of-the-week" stories! Rad AND Starscream both act like losers, Red Alert gets his personality swapped between dubs, and Hot Shot forgets how to stand up. Plus, the coolest moment of the show so far - courtesy of our favourite Funny Little Guys!

Armada Episode 3 - Base / Micron Legend Episode 3 - Tomodachi
In which we reach the end of Armada's three-part opening story, and Megatron busts his nut. PLUS: Alexis tells us what the themes of the show are! Billy and Fred get gaslit! Rad makes fun of Carlos's catchphrase! Jo can't pronounce "Hot Rod!" It's all here!

Armada Episode 2 - Metamorphosis / Micron Legend Episode 2 - Henshin
What does Alexis get up to when she says she's studying? What makes Megatron want to start blasting? Which Decepticon has the most mesmerising ass? And what compelled Wads to watch all of Kamen Rider Gaim? Find out as we watch the second part of Armada's opening trilogy!
