New fan film: Starscream OVA

[TerraEsperZ]

I'm surprised no one has posted about it already but a new fan film called Transformers: Starscream OVA was just released on YouTube.

It's a pretty short but very well made journey into cartoon G1 Starscream's mind. It features great-looking cell-shaded 3D models (reminiscent of the movie in terms of their proportion) and animation as well as stellar voice-acting both for Starscream and Megatron.

It looks like the makers poured a lot of love into it and I fell it deserves as much attention as possible.

I like the Macross Plus reference with Megatron's HUD.

 

[Powered Convoy]

Really like it.

 

[TheSupernova]

I really loved it! That person/team has been making some nice TF content over the past little while. I'd have loved to see this blow up (along the lines of that Dragon Ball fan animation that also came out last week) because I'd love them to make more shorts like this!

I love how Starscream ended up in the Yamcha pose at the end there.

Its pretty good. A nice, very basic story that shows off their animation skills well. I definitely liked it.

Amazing , so much so I have done my first patreon supporter thing

Ok, I finally saw it and I have to say, at least part of this is now my head-cannon for how Coronation Starscream and Super Megatron interact on my shelf...

 

[TheSupernova]

On that note, it kinda makes me wish I had an extra TR Megatron to rip the tank bits off of.

Nearing a half a million views

Going to hit 1 million soon

The same group has made another:

Zel Quartz? That's a deep cut. It's from the Japanese G1 PS2 game that everyone said sucked.

The voice for Grimlock in this is so spot on that I actually thought it was Gregg Berger at first.

 

[TheSupernova]

They do such good work!!

 

[Teufel]

Really stunning job all around. Starscream stole the show, though.

Really stunning job all around. Starscream stole the show, though.

*cough* Guitarscream.

 

[Haywire]

Is it just me, or was Starscream doing the same walk as the ghost at the start of The Real Ghostbusters cartoon?

They did say there were a lot of easter eggs to look for.

 

[Dekafox]

I thought it looked familiar...

A couple other easter eggs I thought I spotted:

Arcee goes zooming past what looked like a VF-1 Valkyrie serving noodles
The Billboard she crashes through looked like it said Grendizer, or at least as close as they could get away with.
