EDIT 19/11/23 - today we lost Peter Spellos, who provided the voice of Alpha Trion for this film and was a very dear friend and mentor to myself and many others. Trion was everything that Pete was to me - someone who saw my potential and encouraged me to do my absolute best. I am privileged to have been part of his renaissance and legacy, and I hope his performance in this film can give others even just a glimpse of his skills as an actor, his passion as a teacher and his kindness as a friend. Farewell Sensei.
I'm so excited to finally be able to share one of my absolute favourite projects with you all! Target: Alpha Trion has been such a blast to produce - we've worked hard to really push the quality in every aspect from the stop motion itself to the writing, lighting, sound design, atmosphere, and it's been fantastic to work with the phenomenal cast and two very special guests, all of whom I am eternally grateful to.
If you want to help me produce more films of this calibre and catch them before anybody else, you can support me on Patreon at www.patreon.com/crosshairsproductions or if you prefer you can make a one-off donation over on my Ko-Fi ko-fi.com/crosshairsproductions!
I hope you enjoy watching this as much as we enjoyed putting it all together!
Dude, the voices are flawless. Having someone do a Tracer styled voice for a fembot is GENIUS! And how the heck were you able to get THE Garry Chalk to join this project?
Wow. These videos are getting better and better. I always thought that a part of the war for cybertron was missing.
Awesome work on this fan film. From the plot, character voices, animation and scenery is so well done.
@@crossover1015 well David Kaye starred in a toy review so.
You did a better job than Netflix in terms of both story and voice acting.
Garry Chalk Hound is something I didn’t know I needed
18:02 love the transformers prime reference there a brilliant callback to Jack showing Orion the key card and Orion asked Jack "are you certain I am worthy?" And Jack says "You have no idea."
When Gary chalk talks my heart flutters
Megatron: When you die, I want us to be even.
Also Megatron: Terminus Blade shard go brrrr.
Kidding aside, this is Siege done right. This is amazing and looking forward to your future work.
2:23, when Hound says his first line, that gave me chills, even though I recognized Garry Chalk's voice prior to this movie.
and it was so prime
Yess I knew it was garry
I have to say this is honestly movie quality greatness right here. The fact that you have a well-written story with great action scenes and well likable characters, not to mention you got Gary chalk to actually play the voice of Hound is amazing I know that with your creative mind we will see even more great content from you and even better stories to come out of the Transformers Universe
I agree. Hasbro needs to hire Crosshairs Productions for his writing skills. With his mind he could definitely put out some awesome transformers content.
@@ronindallon367 Couldn't agree more.
I second that option. I feel like sometimes we are oblivious where we think we are in a safe spot in both business and reality that we sometimes forget to look for ways to grow
that is the closest voice to Peter Cullen I have ever heard! Whoever voiced Prime, Good job :D
Would you believe me if I told you optimus primal is hound here
@@blueraccoon1088 wonder how he managed to get him in this
Crazy to hear Garry Chalk doing this. About 200 or more episodes as Prime and Primal! Legend. He should have been in ROTB.
He is a cross between Peter Cullen and Liam Neeson. The voice acting is top draw in this. Better than WFC, and it shows just how bad that show was that a fan made show is better.
Yeah, that is a close voice of Peter Cullen. I think he should be the best Optimus prime Voice actor for every transformers TH-cam video
As someone who stumbled across broken mirror near when it came out, your films have been consistently good for years, seeing you work with big names like garry chalk really feels like a well deserved culmination of that
Only 12 minutes in, and already this is better than most official series. Everyone did such a great job, and the fact that you got _GARY _*_SLAGGING_*_ CHALK_ to be a part of this should speak to the respect this deserves. The Ascensionverse grows, and my enjoyment continues on.
I love how exelion called out optimus for getting everyone killed for his own loyalty was 100% right and hope we see him again
Maybe, but he went too far by quitting the Autobots…
I am so glad they released the Vector Prime mold as Alpha Trion. It just works for him. I would love to see an updated version.
We had one in titans return.. remold of sentinel prime/astrotrain
There's a new one coming out in the legacy line. "A hero is born" They call it
Amazing
Hi trans theories
@Trans Theories wow you like to watch this channel too!
If I’m being honest, the Orion pax and Trion backstory was damn near perfect. The first meeting, the way they spoke, their ideals, I can see Trion action as sort as a father figure to Optimus since that day
How is it that you can create such amazing content with stop-motion and figures, while the recent fully animated series turns out so mediocre?! The characters sound natural and lifelike, and you can feel every emotion they experience! And to have veteran Transformers voice actors portray respectable roles, too!
I was glued to the screen from start to finish it was that astounding! And it shows how much work and effort you've put into this. I eagerly can't wait for the next masterpiece that you produce!
Cos fan projects don't have time constraints and corporate mandates to deal with.
@@fishpop Now, imagine if Crosshairs was in charge of the WFC Netflix series instead of Cock Dentures. How much better would it be?
@@fishpop Plus the corporate mandate series don't have fan heart and love behind them, but at least they try to respect the lore and that, unlike a different 80s brand show that got steamrolled over because of a morons!
@@fishpop and they’re more passionate with their work than major corporations do.
What?? You actually got Gary Chalk to voice Hound, that’s awesome 😎
Jesus I got hyped when I saw Garry Chalk on this, he’s a legend, just like this film! This is genuinely probably the best stop motion of the year.
Pure awesomeness! It seemed to tackle a bunch of aspects of Siege and do them 100x better (and I actually liked the WFC Trilogy).
Also, I love when Megatron says “When you die, I want us to be even!” It was the first time that I was really reminded that this was a prequel, and that Optimus Prime’s final battle has already been fought. But that last part especially, “I want us to be even!” I’d never really thought of it before now that Megatron didn’t REALLY kill Optimus, Black Shadow did! Using Megatron as a puppet! And it was totally NOT even! How pissed Megatron must be right now! Black Shadow didn’t JUST take over his body and his army, he sullied Megatron’s greatest victory, the moment he’s been savoring since forever! Megatron is gonna freaking slag this scrap-heap when he breaks free!
Yeah that's a good point. I wouldn't go as far as to say black shadow killed Optimus. But it shows how far Megatron has fallen. Losing sight of his own goal
So glad someone picked up on that!!
I agree. Right there with you.
Plus it would explain why he left Starscream to die. Only an idiot would have someone Immortal killed, only to return as a ghost to poses there body. If anything Starscream is more useful to Megatron alive. Despite his tertiaries egotistic and cowardly nature, Starscream is a skilled fighter and marksman. If I whore Megatron, I'd honestly keep Starscream around instead of being an incompetent fool and kill him.
Loving Elita-1 mentioning.
Oh how well it's done!!! The TFP level is achieved! It just obliterates WFC Trilogy. That's just PRIME, that's just MEGATRON, that's just RATCHET and that's just what TRANSFORMERS is should be!
@NEW TRANSFORMERS WORLD I’d say Beast Wars or Animated level. Once you really start to look at TFP, you realize it’s a mediocre show with nothing but good animation ((which caused them to go over-budget)) and Knockout.
@@dippy_1999 Beast Wars is great but can't agree about TFP. I still love this thing though I realize that it isn't all sunshine and rainbows and have drawbacks.
@@dippy_1999
Trippin. TFP was great.
@@AbysmalRandomn3ss TFP is honestly terrible. If you took an actual look at the show, you’d see it’s riddled with problems. I honestly feel too many people are nostalgia-blinded and deprived of an actually good TF show.
@@dippy_1999
Lol well I “feel” that you’re a purist and are too absorbed with yourself to realize other people like other stuff you don’t. TFP was great, literally nothing you can say to change that haha.
This has a better story than most of The bayverse movies
16:13
The music really feels like it’s truly desperate, and then Orion turns into Optimus Prime, the music gives off the feeling of a shining light in the darkness👏
I honestly would love too see more from the actual Cybertronian war, in any verse. Battles fought, won, and lost. The stories that tell us why certain characters are the way they are. What motivations do they have. The reasons the battles or the war can become personal for some, but keep in sight the larger picture for either side.
I guess all I really need to say is:
Wow Joe. Great work to everyone who worked on this project. Thank you for bringing it to life!
You got both Primal AND Sky-Byte to do voices in this!?
Dayum!
He was also Prime in the Unicron Trilogy
@@joshpvgvideogamesandanimer5054 I know but he's more known for Primal.
Watching this gave me Goosebumps did anyone else got goosebumps?
Pretty impactful movie! It does a sweet job of the theme of how one shouldn't get too caught up with the past at the expense of the future even if there's good intentions behind it.
Honestly, this was so good in my opinion, the voice work sounds natural and I love it
A-3 has always been a favorite of mine.
There’s not much I can say praise wise that hasn’t been said already.
Great acting, animation that makes me jealous, great story, great choice of characters and casting, Gary Chalk obviously brilliant, really cool and imaginative use of weapons/props.
And yes, as everyone will say, it is genuinely better than the Netflix show, better passion, better story, better morals, better quality.
I absolutely love this continuity and plan to watch every part of it that comes out.
Absolute top quality
Boo the fact you got Garry chalk is amazing and the moment when I fully realized it was him was the best part of my day
I know I'm a couple of days late, but I just now had time to watch this amazing movie. The story was kind of cool felt like the type of mission you'd send the wreckers for but this time Optimus went himself. The ending scene were Excellion confronted Optimus and decided to leave the Autobots was really good and both sides of the conversation had understandable motives and reasoning. I also like that the after credits scene tied into the main series and gave us one more little piece of the puzzle that is Black Shadow.
Hey Joe, this turned out great, I'm very pleased to have been a part of it!!!! :)
it's an incredible pleasure to have you as part of the team!
My boy Izaac made it big!
I tend to have the Prime Vehicon's gun underslung, so the it looks more integrated into the arm.
Interesting to use the name "Excellion" over Hot Shot.
And he touched a nerve with Prime. A rare thing, as Sixgun points out.
I like that conversation between Pax & Trion.
Getaway sounds like Korg? Why not, dare i say why not...
I do seem to recall him being said to have an Australian or New Zealand accent. It was probably something J-Ro said about his MTMTE iteration
Cybertron having weather is an interesting concept. The WFC trilogy was the first official TF media to have it iirc.
Hearing Gary Chalk as Hound is pretty neat. It's just nice to hear him voicing someone who ISN'T an Optimus.
It's not often when Cybertronians discuss their age in exact numbers. Being so long-lived as they are; i doubt they see any point in it.
That's a thing with the Vector Prime toy, and by extension; this Alpha Trion, it has such a simple transformation... Peg the arms into the waist, fold down the shoulder pads, rotate head, flip up backpack, extend out wings, fold legs around and peg the feet into the back.
Isn't that "Optimus" toy in the flashback actually an Ultra Magnus? Maybe the original Laser Optimus version of that mold couldn't be acquired. Also; shouldn't Optimus still be Orion pre-Matrix?
I'm still bummed about THAT Omega Supreme figure being the closest we ever got to an official toy for his WFC game iteration... There's always Planet X's Genesis figure but getting that is expensive.
You know, i'd totally forgotten about Power Core Combiners until i saw that CW Off-Road painted as Smolder stood outside the hideout. Technically i was reminded earlier by Drag Strip's appearance during the veteran's parade.
Oh hi Crosscut!
Oh right... Stuart Hutson is Megatron in this series... Such a shame his MTMTE dub project had to be shelved...
Nice detail of Megatron's face switching to the battle mask as his sword struck Crosscut.
Did i spy a black Cyclonus in that overhead shot at 23:38?
Oh hi Fracture! He IS a sniper hunter if i recall his RID show personality correctly.
Swindle, Vehicon, Starscream, Drag Strip, Crasher, Megatron, Thundercracker and another Vehicon. Yep, that's eight.
Prime's gun makes its G1 sound, as it should, and Megatron's cannon seems to make the noise Shockwave's one did during his first appearance in Prime.
I'm surprised Megatron's cannon didn't make them blow up... That's what it does in WFC/FOC.
Bit of world-building there; having Steeljaw be a species rather than an individual.
The weird whistling sound of those missiles is reminding me of frustrating WFC enemies...
Using an Arms Micron as a heavy cannon is quite smart tbh.
Ugh, that grenade noise from Hound just reminds me of "TRANSFORM NOW COS THERE'S A STICKY GRENADE ON YOU!"
Hearing WFC/FOC sounds in general is nice.
Huh, i'm pretty sure that boundary wall is a concept taken from Cyberverse.
Do i spy those two jet Micromasters amongst the Decepticons?
Aww, having Skywarp there would've made that shot of Starscream & Thundercracker landing all the better. Stupid scalpers making Siege Skywarp annoying to get!
That's a 3d printed shield by the looks of it. The sword comes from the FOC Ultra Magnus toy iirc.
I forgot those two Micromasters could become a sword... Too bad there's not a little shuttle fella to make a full Star Saber analogue.
Starscream's... well, SCREAMS made him sound like a chimp.
Oh hi Scrounge! Guess that means you have the US version of Computron. Strafe's presence furthers that assumption.
Cue Excellion coming back in some regard with a new paintjob. Perhaps a sporty red...
That's a LOT of ships! I'm surprised Megatron let them leave. Would've been amusing if the Lost Light was among them, merely as just a cameo.
Aww, they named the ship after her.
That's cool, an Alpha Trion insignia.
Max Linden was in this too?
And now Black Shadow has a motive...
Yeah, IDW getaway is written with a New Zealand accent.
Apparently the Cyclonus is a version of BW Sea Clamp.
I love the voice acting in this one and the story, animation, and effects are amazing.
I'm so proud of my best boy Izaac!!! 🥰🥰🥰
I keep re watching this masterpiece oh god it's an addiction help me!
I have to say, your stop motion stories are the best I have ever seen for transformers, they are entertaining, full of character, the plot lines, everything about them are just perfect.
Great work, Joe, much better than the WFC Trilogy. Keep up the awesome work!
This was a great movie! Bradley Frew does an amazing Optimus Prime, and I loved how much Getaway sounded like Korg! It was also nice to see obscure characters like Lancer and Sixgun get some love, and it's awesome that you got Garry Chalk and Peter Spellos on board as well.
The story was great as well, and further convinces me that Joe should actually write for Hasbro. It's certainly much better than most of their recent shows.
You really nailed the dying Cybertron look and feel, and I liked Excellion as well. He was such an interesting character, and it was nice to see how other Autobots were affected by Optimus' decisions. I'm actually hoping that Excellion returns in the future.
Finally, the Black Shadow tease at the end was a spectacular scene, and helped me understand more of his motives and why he does what he does in Ascension.
Overall, great writing, great story, engaging characters, and awesome setting. Keep up the amazing work, Joe!
And if anyone at Hasbro sees this, take some notes.
Just perfection, who said that masterpieces can't be made with toys...the story was incredible
Joe, Hasbro seriously needs to hire you! The quality of your stop motion skills and your the impeccable writing of your stories are excellent! I wish you all the success in the world! 🙏👍👍
110% agree!!!
Who is joe
Wait not joe ma-
The whole bumble bee live chat thing was one of the best things I've ever seen.
I kinda love the idea of Getaway basically being Korg.
Garry Chalk?! Crosshairs you mad lad, you have outdone yourself with this film. I can't wait to see what you pump out from here
OMG, I love this atmosphere! It reminds me of Beast Machine’s desolate Cybertron.
This...
This was utterly amazing. The story was so simple, yet you used it to craft an even deeper story that highlighted the relationship between Optimus and Alpha Trion, whilst building the world of the Ascensionverse even further.
Plus, the fact you managed to get Garry Chalk and Peter Spellos on board to voice Hound and Alpha Trion respectively is astounding.
Though I have to ask: Were you channelling Korg from the MCU when writing his lines? Because I got that vibe when he was first introduced.
Regardless, every performance in this stop motion is phenomenal. The writing and direction is equally spellbinding. I've been a fan of your work since Ascension: Season 1, and with stories like this; it's shocking that you've not got more subscribers.
Keep up the fantastic work, man. I can't wait to see what other stories you create.
Originally Getaway was gonna be a cut-n-dry New Zealander but Mason does a great Korg impression so we tweaked a few lines to be a bit friendlier!
If I had enough money, I'd give it all just to see you write a Live Action Transformers movie Universe...
You are one of my biggest inspirations for wanting to do stop motion...
This man speaks the truth and nothing but the truth.
I'm a little late to this but this was the only time I could watch the movie in pure peace. Yet again an absolute banger. Always love watching Ascensionverse vids and this was no different. I have been so excited to watch this and I was not disappointed. This shattered my expectations well done!
Wow, that was worth the wait, fantastic job guys, Can't wait for season 3
Hollywood and Hasbro seriously need to take note- the fans are out here making content that is light-years ahead in terms of storytelling. Great job guys!
Creating good Stop motion vids is not just a hobby.....it is an ART :D
Holy shit bro, this was amazing. Such a simple story that felt epic. First off , great voice talent. Some of the best voices to bots I've heard. They sounded like professionals and added to the seriousness of the movie. Great camera work with sweet close up shots made it feel like big budget epic. And dont even get me started on the music, that shit had me locked on my screen. The flashback scenes with prime and trion were so good probably the highlight tor me. Watching trion realize how different and special prime is was pretty fucking great to watch. Kick ass action scenes mixed in with tragic deaths makes this movie stand out for me. Well done brother
Let me start by saying congratulations on getting Garry Chalk and Peter Spellos to participate in your project! And second, this was really, really enjoyable to watch. Great work as always, and again, congratulations.
”Yeassss” - Beast Wars Megaton this is gonna be awesome
This was absolutely amazing. Story, cinematography, sound, atmosphere... everything. The cast was amazing too. You always pay homage to the heart and spirit of Transformers and put them in stories we don't typically see (at least on the big screen).
Cracking Optimus impression.
Holy scrap. Everything about this is amazing. The voice acting, the characters, the story, the visuals, everything. It had me feeling every emotion at some point.
megatron: kills crosscut
TFI creations: am i a joke to you?
🤣🤣🤣
This was one of the best videos on this channel
AMAZING....simply....amazing :D
The quality from this marks a significant jump from fan film quality to almost movie level, great work dude.
Anyone think Lancers a little like tracer from overwatch?
I just realized that too.
That’s what I thought too, first thing I thought of when I heard her voice.
Thats what i thought
Bro I thought so too
This was Awesome! Once again you made a transformer movie better than actual films. The story here is Incredible and I can't believe you got the voice of OPTIMUS FREAKING PRIMAL to voice one of your characters. He's a perfect fit for hound. But my favorite has to be Excellion. Hot Shot was my favorite character in Cybertron and possibly my favorite in the franchise. He doesn't get a lot of appearances thanks to characters like bots like Hot Rod, and Bumblebee, so I loved seeing him here. I can't wait to see this character again in your future videos.
I think we should take moments to appreciate how kind peter spellos was to the community he was a good lad he will be missed
Garry freakin' Chalk! Just seeing his name in the credits made this all kinds of win!
Goddamn that ending hit hard. This was absolutely a 10/10. Fantastic work!
The casting in this was pretty fantastic, everyone gets a 5/5 from me.
Anyone else think Emma Cottingham’s Lancer voice kinda sounded like Tracer from Overwatch? I don’t mean that as an insult, just something I thought of.
Whoever voiced Optimus did a really great job. Sounds so much like Peter Cullen. Awesome stop motion movie, Crosshairs Productions!
You got some of the actual transformers cast. Even though it would have been cool getting peter Cullen but I'm happy with this
Everytime I hear Megatron's cannon I hear the Rampage jumping sound from RotF
Jesus that ending was a bit of a tear-jerker.
whoever voiced optimus in this did a heck of a good job im impressed he does a better job then i ever could
This is fantastic! So much attention to detail, voice acting and plot
I got to say this video is amazing and I can't believe Gary chalk voice Hound I'm impressed
that was amazing, definitely some of the team's best work! Everything feels next level; from the editing, atmosphere, story, and especially the voice acting!
I am blown away by Optimus prime's actor. Wtf. I feel like im listening to Mr. Cullen himself.
Can’t wait I’ve been excited to see this work of art
This was fantastic. Watching this film and hearing every single voice performance involved and how well written this was, you can really feel the passion and energy that went into making this and it shows. Bravo to everyone involved!
Absolutely wonderful. One of the best movies I've seen in recent times. Keep up the astounding work!
It’s funny when a fan film has a better voice for prime than the wfc trilogy
Ok, the voice of Optimus Prime is probably the best one out of all of the Transformers Stop Motions I’ve seen;
I also love how Getaway sounds like Korg from the Marvel movies 😂
Icsaid optimus on 27:15 and Megatron said it on 27:19 holy that was perfect timing
Very good. Peter Spellos and Garry Chalk in a fan made production is amazing. Good seeing figures I own.
I love how lancer sounds like tracer from over watch it fits quite well!
The fact that Getaway talks like Korg is way funnier than it should be to me
Nice work! Really liked the story. Good job casting as well, the voices really add to the weight of the story!
ever since I watched EMGO316's Alpha Trion review, I cannot hear him without saying "YOOOOOOOOOONG WARRIOR!!!!!"XD
(The joke is only funny to those who has seen EMGO's skits :D)
keep up the amazing work :D
hello algorithm, please send this masterpiece to everyone
That was genuinely incredible
This was just so awesome & perfect! I really enjoyed it! The story was so great & the voice acting was amazing! So awesome that you got Garry Chalk!! The effects were pretty awesome too! Can't wait to hopefully see a sequel!
Wow so hound sounds like primal and prime definitely sounds like Peter Cullen I’m geeking out over this.
That's cuz Garry chalk the official VA for BW primal voiced hound.
I saw this in TF Nation, it was really good, keep up the great work
Yeah Same here
Once again, Crosshairs Productions has done it. Good job, ol’ chap!
Your stuff is SO GOOD. The writing, the acting, the SOUNDTRACK. I'm honestly blown away. Thank you for this.
Can't wait
I just noticed Getaway sounds like taika watiti, that's absolutly hilarious, I love that touch
Gary chalk!!!! Wow!!! You need to be a writer for the transformers movies
this was magnificent
its artists like you that keep me invested in the transformers franchise
cant wait to see what you produce next ^^
So ready for this
Voice cast was really great, gary chalk is of course is a highlight but i think Peter Spellos' alpha trion takes the cake. Really shows his vocal range going from a comedic relief character like skybyte to the wise and mentoring Trion.
