Rushed Review Episode 10:
Animated Sentinel Prime


Posted: October 22, 2008

Info: So how to review the character I'm supposed to hate, and make it funny... that's tricky. But, I'm always up for a challenge, right? As usual, 1 through 5 score with no unneeded details.

In Depth: I guess the real gag to this video are all the Tick references. For those that don't know, The Tick was voiced by the same guy that did Sentinel Prime. In fact when they originally did this character as Rodimus Prime and were told to make it someone new, it was their voice actor choice that inspired the new design, wide chest, antenna, and a chin large even for Animated standards. And of course, he's smaller than the normal Earth-mode Prime, the Voyager, but really no kid's going to pay more than $10 for the show's professional jerk. His only fault are the arms, really, there's no rotation in any of the joints so any normal sword poses are hard to get into. Not to mention the shoulder joints, they're clever in construction but they don't connect to the body very well at all. He can hold a pose, but good luck moving the arms without them popping free.
