    Animated Sentinel spent the whole show becoming a character I hate to love. Every time he felt on the verge of something deeper or some sort of self improvement, he dug in his heels and went backwards, and apparently that was the perfect formula to make me madly invested in the character arc I knew he would never achieve.
    His legs also helped. Animated character designs were basically flawless.

    Blue and orange fits Sentinel Prime really well, since Optimus is Blue and Red. Red is a more deeper and more vibrant shade of Orange, which kind of acts as symbolism. While Sentinel Prime is only a leader by name and title alone, Optimus has the true values and traits of a good leader. I feel like that distinction in color scheme is lost if the character designers decide to go with orange and red from now on, because the color scheme seems a bit too bright. More like Hotrod’s style, but that’s just me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The new War for Cybertron toyline is entirely dominated by G1, and in fact the whole Generations line has been G1 dominant since Combiner Wars debuted. They have no plans for anything non-G1 until the Beast Wars 25th anniversary comes out, and even then, evidently the Cyberverse animation crew had to fight to get the likes of Cheetor, not-Lugnut, and Lockdown into the show.

    I'm gonna go with "Animated" Sentinel Prime as my favorite incarnation. Yeah he's a massive jerk, but at least he always gets his comeuppance for his blockhead decisions. Plus, he did have an interesting backstory with Optimus, and his design and voice are too enjoyable to ignore.
    I will say though, his "Titans Return" toy looks really cool, especially his train and spaceship modes.

    I actually do hope Sentinel will continue to live on as Cybertron's fallen hero. Someone who in his mind thinks he knows what's best for Cybertron and sees himself as the one doing what's right despite how wrong he truely is. A villain who thinks he's the hero.

    Heroes generally have to be young, and naive enough to not see the problems that gave rise to their enemies in the first place. When they get older, they see the problem, and try to correct it. But in doing so they are often considered tragic villains.

  • @babysinclairfan

    Transformers Exodus (aligned continuity) is my favorite adaptation of sentinel. It portrays him as a washed-up, but humble leader with a heart of gold. Sentinel realizes that he's not cut out for the turbulent times ahead, but does his best, ultimately dying in a vain attempt to thwart Megatron.
    There's a really nice scene where Sentinel laughs at a struggling comedians jokes in order to help boost the guy's confidence.
    Sadly, none of this made it to the video game

      I really like DOTM Sentinel but I knew he'd be a villain when they announced Leonard Nimoy (RIP Spock) as his voice actor. He voiced Galvatron in the animated Transformers: The Movie and even DOTM had Wheelie foreshadow his turn, when he said, "This is the one where Spock goes nuts!" Classic! Also, keep Zeta and Sentinel separate characters.

    Dreamwave may not have had a particularly long run, and their books met with mixed reviews at the time, but I do feel they did a lot to consolidate the overall continuity of the Transformers (particularly G1) and made a tremendous, lasting impact with their deepening of the lore. They took so many concepts that the G1 cartoon and Marvel comics had only briefly touched upon, and updated and expanded upon them in ways that really stuck to this day. In the long run, their Transformers comics had a positive impact on the franchise overall, and their creative legacy has far outlasted the actual company.

    I don’t think we really needed to see Sentinel’s downfall in Animated. The subtext of the final few episodes really spelled it all out. He was tricked by Lockdown, beaten effortlessly by Swindle, Optimus disregarded his orders, Ratchet took the Magnus Hammer, his Lieutenant Jazz ditches him, Alpha Trion and Perceptor clearly don’t approve of him, and while he’s oppressing his fellow Autobots on Cybertron, Optimus actually brought down Megatron and his inner circle, brought back Omega Supreme, and returned with the Allspark in tow. Not to mention Ultra Magnus wasn’t actually offline. The writing was on the walls that Sentinel wouldn’t remain in charge for long.

When I went to see Dark of the Moon, I was excited to see two Primes fight side-by-side and hoping that Sentinel would be a better and more likable character. I came out of the theater shocked not only that the two Primes end up fighting each other, but also that Sentinel was worse in Dark of the Moon than he was an Animated.
