I think that's what Windblade is based off, I could be wrong though. : o

She looks AMAZING!! I love your color choices. They totally fit.
Also, totally awesome song (I <3 me some TERRA, especially Flowers, Sacred Oath, Doll, and Zero)
Fun fact - Windblade is a fan-created bot (her toy released around the time that Chromia and Arcee released at the end of 2014. You can still find her on Amazon for a decent price if you want to snag one for yourself).

I wish I could find a full-length version of 'Sacred Oath' (if one exists).
Eeee-yup. She is one of the first fan-created bots (or fan-created fembots). I like the idea that she is a bit of a geisha girl, but can easily kick your skidplate if you say something wrong. I squeed when they made her a permanent member of Team Bee. If memory serves, she and Strongarm had a bit of a rivalry at first. I just wish they would explore more of the Wingblade / Sideswipe relationship.

I wish the music video to Zero wasn't just a music video! ; ;
Ah, I don't know much about her existence in the new series, only seen small parts of it. But I'm happy to hear she'll be in it a fair bit when I get around to watching it!

I know, right. Zero and Doll would be a freaking AWESOME anime series.
It's been nice to see fembots other than Arcee and Black Arachnea / Airachnid in the more recent series. Hell, even Transformers: Rescue Bots has a fembot now named Quickshadow.

I've seen Quickshadow; she's awesome! Where I live Rescue Bots gets played a lot throughout the day, so I tend to see the characters from that a lot too. I was really happy to see a girl! Well, fembot, whatever you wish to call it. >u<

LOL.
Rescue Bots is usually a morning series here, though I tend to watch it on the weekends (or half watch it, as I did with the episodes for the past couple of weeks).
At first I thought Quickshadow was going to turn out to be another incarnation of Jazz from G1, since his vehicle form is quite similar to hers. Still, finding out that R.B was gaining a female transformer blew me away. I love her accent and how confused she was when Cody and Doc asked her to open her trunk. "Oh, you mean my boot."

I hope they do more with her than just the occasional random episode. Heck, I hope they have more of Blurr and Salvage as well. She was the focus of the Halloween episode a couple weeks back, and revealed that there is a lot more to her vehicle mode than we first saw.
Every Transformers ever, eh? Starting with G1, then the Japanese seasons that took place after the 3-part season 4? Followed, no doubt, by Car Robots (which ran on Fox Kids back in 2001), then Armada, Energon, and..... there was another series that took place before Animated. Then Prime, Robots in Disguise and Rescue Bots (which sort of takes place during Prime / RID). Oh, and the 1986 movie, and the Michael Bay movies (which I don't really count as falling anywhere in the TF canon, even though the 'Bee in Prime and RB is technically the same as the 'Bee in the movies). You'll be quite worn out half-way through that marathon. I do know that Discovery Family (at least here) has been running the G1 episodes every morning, as well as episode of Prime and Rescue Bots most mornings as well.
My usual ambient noise is either something on DIY network, a car-related series (my boyfriend got me hooked on Street Outlaws, Top Gear, and a few other series on Velocity), or something on Disney JR (I'm kinda hooked on Miles from Tomorrowland, Doc McStuffins, and Sofia the First... though more the first two than the third).
I also hope that when it comes to the figures that they don't stop with Windblade, Arcee, and Chromia for the lady 'bots. It would be nice to see Firestar, Moonracer, Elita 1, Lancer, Green Light, and the other lady 'bots from G1 in figure form.

My boyfriend knows a lot about Transformers (or at the very least, compared to me! ;A; ), so he'll probably just decide on whatever he feels like. We haven't watched anything in order really; I think we just got lucky with Prime and the Robots in Disguise series being a follow-on. But we're watching that many things right now I doubt we'll be watching a new series anytime soon! o_o;
For me, it's Cartoon Network, or a channel called Pop. I don't know if it's a channel shown in other countries or exclusive to the UK. I know CN has listings in a few countries. Pop is what shows Rescue Bots, CN shows Prime and RiD, but as of recently they've only been showing Prime at like, 5am. Ugh.
I like toys that actually look like the robots. Not all into the transforming thing even though that's the whole point of them. xD Maybe that's just me? I would like to see more girls! I only have a figure of Arcee... :c

I have three of the four Arcee figures (Energon, Movie-version 1, and the 30th anniversary that actually looks like her original cartoon form. I missed out on getting the one for Animated, which is probably a good thing).
Pop may be a UK only station, and it sounds like UK Cartoon Network has a different line-up than what we have in the states (Prime, RB, and Gen1 are on Discovery Family, while RID is.... or rather was, on CN).
The newer releases of the figures (well, the 30th anniversary and for the most part the Combiner Wars series) look a lot like their cartoon counterparts.

The Arcee I have was a present from my boyfriend. She's customized to look like the version from Prime, but because of all the edits she can't transform anymore. Not that it bothers me, I'd rather have her as a display piece anyway. I don't know who made the edits but they were talented! :>
I don't know what CN airs in other countries, I know that the UK gets new shows way later than others though, which sucks hard. Friends in other countries have already watched the latest season of things when the UK hasn't even started advertising them yet! ;3; Pop is a channel that buys up some new and some old licenses, which is nice, but it owns that many things it never has a set schedule.

Awesome. I've seem some really sweet custom figures out there (like a custom dinobot combiner). I bet your Prime version is pretty awesome.
Pop sound a bit like the old Boomerang station that was an offshoot of Cartoon Network that ran a mix of old and newer series. Not sure if Boomerang is still around, though, or if they are, what they are currently running. It is a bummer that different countries have different release schedules for certain series. Have you seen any of the newer Steven Universe episodes yet, or are you still waiting on those?

She is pretty >u< But parts of her feel fragile so I don't like to touch her. D:
We still have Boomerang, it shows Scooby-Doo, The Garfield Show, Looney Tunes and Sonic Boom pretty much on a cycle. It's sort of like, that one channel you watch when there's absolutely nothing else on other channels you want to watch.
I don't watch Steven Universe I'm afraid! :c I watch The Amazing World of Gumball and I know we're like a whole season behind other countries. So I imagine it's the same deal for other shows like Steven Universe and Regular Show.

I've got a few of those (stations i watch when there's nothing better on), though a lot of that is on demand. Like, we have TOKU, which runs a few free episodes of anime that update every couple of weeks (mostly subtitled, which is cool).
Steven Universe started out slow as a series, but it's getting really good. They manage to encompass a range of emotions, plus a decent plot and character building, all into 12-15 minute episodes.
Gumball is interesting for what I've seen, and if you're a fan it must be difficult to try to avoid spoilers.

Gumball is like a graphic designer's dream! It seems like so much effort goes into Gumball for a single episode; no set of characters is made from the same material; some are stop-motion, some are real people, some are 3D, it's amazing. And the crew really look like they have fun creating it, which makes it all that better to watch. <3
I'm not saying crews for other shows don't have fun or anything, I just feel Gumball members make their feelings more apparent through their characters.

Gumball is definitely an interesting show from a design point of view.
