Best G1 episode ever created. Voice acting is on point. Music on point!. Love the story of control between Galvatron and Zarek. Cant wait for the next episode.. Happy Subscriber!

Lovin it! These fan-made episodes feel EXACTLY like what I expect of a G1 episode!

The fact the art varied wildly in episodes works to your favor. Editing is awesome

It's good to see Devcon again. At 31:17

Thank you for making this. The voice actors did a great job, and the part where Galvatron got damaged badly and went back to his "crazy" voice from Season 3 was a neat twist also.

I loved that part! A great nod to the past that adds lore to his character.

27:11 The first time i saw the first part of this series, i know that somehow, the "Pretender" in the title is a pun for the Pretenders that will later show up. And indeed, i was not wrong.

UPDATE: Wow! Thanks for all the views/new subs everyone! Truly blown away by the sudden spike in interest in the project so thanks to all who have viewed/commented and especially those of you who subscribed! It helps us with the dreaded KZread algorithm immensely! **The end credits segment is well out of date: Ultra Magnus and Cyclonus are voiced by Cynixbox, Galvatron is voiced by Liam O'Donnell (last 3 lines and ongoing) and Perceptor is voiced by Ultra Marcus. Apologies to the voice actors but we will DEFINITELY update the credit sequence in time for the next proper episode!

@@calvinprime Hey Calvin! We were considering adding Unicron in but sadly there's just such limited material of him (aside from the movie which is leagues better in animation quality and would stick out like a sore thumb) that it would be too difficult to incorporate him into a story in any meaningful way.

I remember watching the 3rd part on release and just getting so hyped when the Pretenders of all things showed up. I wasn't expecting anything beyond Headmasters.

A magnificent performance! I loved how seamlessly you blended the footage from the different series together lol! You also pulled off some very close accuracies of the leaders voices too I especially loved the reversion to frank voice after Galvie was damaged! That final shootout was awesome also!

This show is Michael Bay didn't have a clue when making them live non action Transformers movies. Mega Cudos for making this episode that I believe is a fitting follow up to The Rebirth episode #3. Simply amazing & put my frown upside down. 😃

@miyako1909

Please learn English. I can barely understand what you are trying to say. Michael Bay is just the director. He isn't the script writer. Also, live-action movies are just too costly. If they had more transformers or focused on them, the CGI cost would be humongous, and the movie would be 20 minutes long. Transformers just aren't suited to live action movies. I am not even a fan of the movies, but Bay does not deserve all the hate. Do you know that without the Bay movies, the franchise would be dead now? The franchise was dying back in the early 2000s, but the Bay movies saved it. New fans bought all the leftover stuff from old toylines and Hasbro got enough money for new projects like the games, Transformers Animated, Transformers Prime, etc. You should be grateful to Bay.

Oh this takes me back a bit. Reminds me of the KZread days of yor when people made random adventures like this. Anyone here remembering "Links epic quest" or "Quest for courage"?

I love these! Keep up the good work. I can't wait for the next episode.

I think this is the first time I’ve watched a fan made thing like this that feels like it could actually be from g1. The characters sound like themselves. Voice acting and effects on the voices are good. Obviously has its flaws being made out of old footage but really excellent story all round. Great to see old favourites have been resurrected. I’m sure the quintessons would want to fix ironhide too!

That was pretty dang good bro! Nice work! I always hated that the cartoon ended while there was still so much to cover and always loved the way the comics kept going and handled the Nebulons, Powermaster Prime, introduced the pretenders, etc. Obviously like most Americans, never knew about the Japanese continuations until the advent of the net. Never really thought about it before but between the original show, all the japanese stuff (headmasters, etc.), and other visually similar 80's anime for background scenes and extras; there's got to be enough content available for a talented editor like yourself to keep going for awhile. Really hope to see more!

Awesome episode

Interesting to note that the Decepticons were so powerful back on Cybertron that they conquered it, yet they continually failed here on Earth, and I think I know why. First off, back on Cybertron they concentrated on flying alt modes, that meant they controlled the surface (but not the interior, that was Autobot territory due to their surface effect alt modes). But when the Transformers got to Earth, the need to blend in means that while the Decepticons were tracked by both humans and Autobots (all flight is monitored), the Autobots weren't. Moreover, the Autobots allied with the humans to an extent, so the Autobots could set up shop near a human city and get resources easily, WHILE not being trackable by the Decepticons.

I felt like a kid again!😊

I just started this video, and I already like this voice for Galvatron better than the one from the original cartoon.

I just discovered these by accident... This is amazing. I'm 51. Big G1 fan are they're any other episodes or are these the only ones coz this kicks ass

Oh, I love this.. it's what we American fans were deprived of back in the late 80s. MORE STORIES 👍

Even though the Japanese Headmaster series was a clunky mess that doesn't really appeal to western audiences and at times doesn't feel like Transformers with the silliness, posing and canned animations; the overall animation was solid and they introduced some interesting concepts like establishing Autobot bases on other worlds. I'd love to see some of that incorporated in any way possible. It would also be cool to see Cerebro and Fort Max again. Maybe the different head could be explained by the fact that Cerebro, Fort Max and by extension Spike are becoming increasingly more merged or something, so Cerebro changed his head to look more like Fortress Maximus. This could start happening to all of the Nebulons and would allow you to use more of the footage from the Headmaster show. It would explain why you don't see them really without thier exosuits, because of the binary bonding they take them off less and less often, preferring to be Transformers. (And just mention something somewhere that undoes the Daniel / Arcee bond.)

Thanks! The "Masters" were always some of my favorite toys and again the Headmaster comic mini series and the issues where they take Optimus Prime's memory chip back to Nebulos for them to rebuild are probably some of the most well written issues of the comic in my opinion. I really hope you're able to work them in as much as possible. Didn't catch a lot of Masterforce but I'm thinking if the animation blends well enough, maybe it could be explained that the headmaster and targetmaster tech was reverse engineered and then used to create the powermasters. Since Prime dies in the first few episodes of headmasters, its possible you'll run out of animation to reuse and so that might be a way to be able to extend him out a ways. Anyway, I'm sharing this with every Transformers fan I know. Hope your channel blows up and you are able to keep this going for quite a while.

Not bad at all. Worthy of the original. (Your resurrection of Wheeljack, Ironside, etc is just fine by me.)
