    Great for little kids

    My 2 & 3 year old boys absolutely love this show! Even I don't mind watching it with them when it is on. The music is cute and the characters are sweet/funny. The theme song is awesome and the background music is sweet. It is a great action show for little boys!

    I prefer they watch this instead of the other Transformer shows as it is innocent and age appropriate for them. Optimus Prime & Bumblebee make appearances throughout the series. There are only two seasons out. so far. I am hoping they keep this show going. Check out the cast, too! If you were a child of the 80's/90's, you are sure to recognize some of the people! I was pleasantly surprised! :-)

    A child's tv show for the whole family

    We first discovered this show a few years ago on a rainy day and have returned to it many times since then. It's a great show and has a bit of everything in it - it's full of adventure and danger, a little scary and the characters are good too, plus it's a good introduction to transformers. 10/10

    All the fun of giant transforming robots without the mega-violence

    We watched this show with a 4 year old obsessed with fire fighters. It was a great transitional show for him. As a parent, I thought the messages in the show were pretty positive. I also appreciate that they had cool mega robots that weren't engaged in violent activity. My son liked the plot, the characters (both robot and kid) and most of all, the giant transforming robots.

    Pros:

    • No serious guns or violence


    • Giant transforming robots


    • Functional family themes


    Cons:

    • Would have liked to see more use of the female characters


    • The toys that accompany the series certainly encourage consumerism.

    Transformers: Rescue Bots, Original take of Transformers

    Transformers: Rescue Bots is targeted to a younger fan group of Transformers and to help introduce them to the Transformers but it does allow for the adult fans to watch it with their children.

    The plot of the series centers around Four Autobots: Heatwave (Voiced by Steve Blum), Chase (Voiced by D.C. Douglas), Blades (Voiced by Parvesh Cheena) and Boulder (Voiced by Imari Williams) are given the mission by Optimus Prime (Voiced by Peter Cullen) to learn about Earth, about humans and serve and protected.

    Along with their human allies Chief Charlie Burns (Voiced by Maurice LaMarche, and his family Cody Burns (Voiced by Elan Garfias, Dani Burns (Voiced by Lacey Chabert), Kade Burns (voiced by Jason Marsden) and Graham Burns (voiced by Shannon McKain)

    The series also feature guest stars such as LeVar Burton, Jeff Bennett, Kath Soucie, Mark Hamill, Michael Bell,Katherine McNamara,Tim Curry, Stacy Darrow, Dee Bradley Baker, Jim Cummings, Roger Craig Smith

    The stories for the show do work for both kids and adults with having both serious and humor but along with making the show work.

    Also the creative written does present some funny one liners so the writers have done something right.

    Voice acting is pretty talented as well and good we got Transformers Vets returning to work in The Transformers.

    Animation is original and only the best way to give it a understanding is to watch it for yourself.

    What I like best about the series is the theme song and intro it is very catchy and the lyrics work for the show there are times I replay the song over and over because I enjoy it that much.

    If you're a fan give Transformers: Rescue Bots a try you might be surprised.

    Excellent transformers serise for 3-7 year olds

    Even though this is no Transformers prime and it is not aimed at my age but it is a great show for younger kids. Since it doesn't have any violence or guns.

    Though the flashy animation is way too bright it's still pretty decent if you want to get your kids into Transformers.

    I hope we see something similar with GI Joe one day.

    • Quotes

      Blades: I've seen pictures of aliens. They hug your face and lay eggs in your tummy!

      Boulder: No! They're round blobs that swallow everything in their path. Including... vehicles!

      Chase: That is incorrect. Aliens are cloaked hunters. But they can't see you if you're covered in mud.

      Blades: Lets look for some mud!

      [Blades starts frantically searching for mud on the ground]

      Heatwave: Just to remind you, WE're aliens.
