More rescues, more bots.

Transformers: Rescue Bots Academy is an animated cartoon series developed by Boulder Media Studio as a sequel to Transformers: Rescue Bots, created by Rescue Bots co-developer Nicole Dubuc. The series had a special advance premiere on December 8, 2018, while the remaining episodes began airing on January 5, 2019 on Discovery Family in the US and Pop TV in the UK. Two 52 episode seasons were released, tying the episode count of its predecessor, and like the concurrently-airing Transformers: Cyberverse, each episode runs for 11 minutes.[1] The voice cast of Rescue Bots did not reprise their roles, with existing characters being re-cast with voice actors from the same New York-based casting pool as Cyberverse.

Intended for more of a preschool audience than its predecessor, the series follows the first class of the new Rescue Bot Training Academy, learning from the more experienced Rescue Bots how to respond to emergency situations and become heroes.

“ Earth needed help and they answered the call,
No rescue too big, no hero too small.
Recruits come to learn from the best of the best,
They'll be Rescue Bots too, if they pass the test!
 ”

—The theme song.

Notes

Bumblebee-RBA-design progression.jpg
  • The series uses a different art style from its predecessor. For example, the robot characters in this series have full optics instead of large gaps around an iris. The recruits also have a shorter stature than the other bots, with Optimus being the tallest of the cast. Much like Animated and the concurrrently-airing Cyberverse, all the characters tend to have boot-like feet.
  • Several characters who previously appeared in Rescue Bots and other Aligned continuity series have undergone heavy redesigns. All prior characters now resemble their "evergreen" designs, in a concession to Hasbro's push for a unified brand look. Early concept art by character designer Francesco Giglio (seen at right) depicts Bumblebee in a variation of his original Rescue Bots design, suggesting the evergreen mandate was not in place at the start of the show's development.
  • The show's episode order differs depending on how and where you watch it, sometimes in very significant ways. Episodes were broadcast in different orders between the US and the UK, with Netflix's episode order being based on the latter, while others like iTunes use the former. Meanwhile, the official Transformers Kids YouTube channel chooses to number episodes based on the show's internal production order. And then some other platforms have their own orders completely separate from any of these! To top it all off, all of these orders have some pretty noticeable continuity errors that pop up here and there, with characters and upgrades appearing before the episodes in which they're shown to make their big debut, so there's no one "official" order where all the episode placements make sense. It's all very confusing, so as we've done in past situations like this, TFWiki.net adheres to production order, in preference to simply making up a chronological order of our own (any attempt at which would be arguable at best).
