This week on Radio Free Cybertron: It’s SDCC weekend! Like always that means TONS of Transformers news! The big news this week is Power of the Primes! What is it? What’s gimmick? How does it tie to Titans Return and Combiner Wars? And, most importantly, is it awesome? Well, it’s got Pretenders, Powermasters, combiners, and all sorts of Transformer-ey goodness. So, all signs point to yes! We have firsthand accounts of today’s Transformers panel in San Diego! Also, we also talk about recent news around The Titans Return animated series, TFCon reveals, changes to Rescue Bots, what’s coming to IDW in 2018 and lots more! But, really, you want to know about Power of the Primes, and we’ve got that. Plus all that other stuff we mentioned.
