Okay, I admitt, I didn't buy the DVDs...but I DID watch the series on TV when I was younger! I read these other reviews with the one-star rating and man was I furious! Everybody is always comparing it to Transformers G1! Well here's a news flash for you all: I HATE TRANSFORMERS G1! IT'S STUPID! TRANSFORMERS ARMADA ROCKS AND I LOVE IT SO DON'T INSULT IT! I can't STAND watching Transformers G1, I don't know anything about any of the characters! At least Transformers Armada explains their characters well! I could name them all if you want! Autobots and Decepticons! And I also like Armada Starscream better than G1 Starscream! G1 Starscream was a terrible coward and a scoundrel! While Armada Starscream started off evil, then learned to be good and died an excellent hero! Another character I love is Hot Shot! I love how they have the characters develope into great Transformers, better than they were before. Armada was my childhood show, NOT G1! I'm only a teen right now! You people stop comparing it to G1 all the time! This show is one of the greatest shows I ever watched in my entire life! (besides Teen Titans and Sonic X)

If I had it my way, I would give this the highest negative imaginable. This series is atrocious. What a good a way to destroy a classic cartoon. Nothin about this is acceptable. I'll admit some of the G1 episodes was corny but they are light years ahead of this garbage. If your a fan of Transformers G1 and Beast Wars, there is no possible way you can even try to like this. There is no good points to this. Just as every 1 star reviewer noted; Those kids are the biggest problem with this show. They serve no purpose at all. They are completely annoying, and they are in every single episode. Bad enough they started out with 3 of them, then they added 2 more. To top it off the Autobots are so lame in this garbage and they cant win without them. It got to the point I wasn't watching this for enjoyment anymore, I just wanted it to end so I could feel like I didn't totally waste my money. Too many iconic characters are a total joke now. Prime and Megatron for the most part are still the same. But Cyclonus is a nightmare. He's a total joke in this, to include Starscream. The stories are poorly writin, and if you seen one episode you basically saw them all. Some of the other 1 star reviewers compared this with Pokemon. I never sat down and got into pokemon, but I do know what its about. And if the "Transformers" are mentioned in the same sentence as Pokemon. Then something can't be right! This is good only for the kids. If thats your reason for getting it, then your money will be well spent. I really hope this garbage goes out of print and then hopefully it'll just disappear and be a bad memory. I didn't even sell mine, I just gave it away. I'll just stick to the originals and act like this junk didn't even exist. If your a huge TF fan and must see this, you are going to hate yourself for spending at least 30 bucks on this. Its not even worth 10 bucks. Keep your money and buy the G1 or/and Beast Wars collection. You will not be disappointed. I never thought the day would come I would give the almighty Transformers a 1 star negative review or say anything negative about it for that matter. But the mighty has fallen.

first off i ACTUALLY watched these episodes cringing all the way... and i have to say straight up...THESE ARE TERRIBLE !! first off THIS is Not generation one its not even in the same league and its not even worthy of being called transformers...
sure they have prime and megatron...but its NOT the same the writers here did a hackjob, and paid no respect to the characters...prime and megatron are iconic characters and deserve MUCH better than this...the voice acting is pitiful they should have got peter cullen to reprise optimus primes voice..and the original voice actor for megatron ,
next off is the storylines, if you call these stories ...they are pathetic...i see this is where the parents groups had a big hand in this..because the plots are so lame and lackluster..and WTF is with these dippy teens they added in this show?? they are either bratty or wimpy beyond belief...sure ,we had humans in the generation one show.. But spike, carly, and chip chase... were interesting and you actually cared about them.. and you gotta love sparkplug witwicky spikes dad...these human characters did a hell of a lot more than go " oh god help!"
.this show is too cartoony...what i mean by that..its too light...can you imagine if they had the death of optimus prime here? i dont think the producers here would know how to handle it.let alone the parents...back in the day there was a backlast sure..i remember being sad when prime died but it was dramatic..and added to the story...same thing with the death of roy fokker in robotech..
both of those deaths had lasting impacts on future storylines..try that these days i mean, have you seen some of the other animation on tv today ?.. lets say spongebob, pokemon the brain starts to go soft already its shows like these that give animation a bad name..
everything about armada is bad... this is transformers lite in my opinion...its all fluff and nothing more...from the corny dialogue, bad animation(im glad marvel didnt decide to animate this one) and more...this show reeks...take my advice..You want to see a good transformers story? get the GENERATION ONE series dvds and transformers the movie..and sit back and enjoy and after that track down the marvel comics transformers series you'll be glad you did, and use armada to give to somebody you dont like it could become the new "fruit cake" :)

First of all, I would like to state that I grew up watching Transformers, from the end of the G2 series until Cybertron, so my review may be a bit biased. Transformers Armada and Energon I'm afraid I missed seeing as they came out, but having recently bought this set, I was able to catch myself up somewhat. In defiance to many other reviews, the animation was fairly well done, as well as the voice casting. The new voice actor for Starscream was a good fit for the character. And while I do have to say that I have missed a few of my old favorite characters, I haven't yet seen a huge problem with those returning. All in all, except for a few times when the kids got extremely annoying, and the dialouge a little repetitive, this was a very good series, and I would give it a 4.75 but that number isn't selectable. And now I shall wait rather impatiently for the second half of the series to come out in a collection available in America.
