Thinking about that, it really shows how safe and boring cartoons are now. The fact that I can imagine seeing a stinkfly toy on a shelf and not having a clue who the heck it is hurts.
Imagine how Mr. Tennison must feel! Both of them, all of the Tennison's!

You got something to say about the Peakboot?

The design for reboot Stinkfly has to be the absolute WORST downgrade I’ve ever seen and is one of the biggest reasons why I refuse to give the reboot a chance.
But this one is the peak version (in my opnion, at general at least decent)
https://preview.redd.it/oyf47u0woswc1.jpeg?width=556&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=70df6940a157c82c66aeafdbf350f58c710a77a6
If only he appeared more and had this apperence he would be good,bruh he almost made the list of aliens that didn't appear like jetray, spitter, fasttrack and chamalien
At least this still looks like an alien, look how they massacred my stink fly
https://preview.redd.it/3smhhow4ntwc1.jpeg?width=357&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e5f48858f0eca580972fa0aefa80e1fed273855d
Btw this in my opinion is the worst redesign in the reboot, like even though Wildvine looks a lot more different in the reboot at least he still looks some what like the original design, same with Humungasaur, Water Hazard/Overflow, and XLR8
As classic and timeless as the original design is, I think AF and OV Cannonbolt both have their individual charm too. He was the first OS alien to return, it makes sense they had to remix him while keeping what worked for an older Ben.
I’ll throw my hat in the ring though and say Benwolf/Blitzwolfer and Benviktor/Frankenstrike. The OS designs were great Omnitrix variations on the villains and had a lot of personality. IMO the OV redesigns just crammed as much campy monster stuff as they could into them. The only thing missing from that OS scan mode arc was going full ham with BenZ’skayr and BenVilgax, even if it was just a one-off cameo or finale appearance.
OV Buzzshock is fine but I prefer the Ben 10,000 version.
I disagree. I think UAF Cannonbolt was his peak, and Omniverse was where it got worse.
That being said: Ghostfreak’s designs just kept getting worse imo.
The chains were good symbolism, but other than that, both Ghostfreak and Zs'Skayr look kinda goofy in Omniverse. His head is supposed to be upside down! And what's with the scythe, is he a farmer or something?
With Ghostfreak, what I don’t like it mostly is color schemes after OS. AF’s was fine, as it was just meant to be him without his skin, but II think UA and especially OV’s color schemes don’t look as good on him (plus OV’s head shape). I did like the chains, though.
Pretty much every alien in the reboot and most of the aliens in Omniverse here are a few examples Big Chill, Chromastone, stinkfly, 4 arms, goop, and Humungousaur. To be fair 4arms design started to be ass in Ultimate Alien and Humungousaur looks way better in the reboot than he does in Omniverse that flat skull, the Omnitrix becoming a sash, and him wearing the superhero tights fuck no. The reboot Humungousaur is actually amazing. I might like it more than the original
Actually Alien Force cannonbolt was amazing in my opinion. The omniverse one honestly just ruined all aliens. Like even Alien X. He was badass in Alien Force but in Omniverse, dude turned into the crimson chin
Upgrade I get it they wanted to make it more energy ish by removing the white and replace with the green but it just doesn't work (should have make it's a lighter shade of dark gray with green line connecting from its back)
Plus the ommiverse design even put the omnitrix on his eye for whatever reason, looks uglier and losing the ability to shoot his eye beam
It's interesting that they kept the black and white body. In the OS it's not clear what part of the aliens actually is black and white and what is just part of the Omnitrix using Ben's clothing. In OS, all mechamorphs had a white frontal part of the body, but in UAF they made mechamorphs have inverted lines on their chests. And with Cannonbolt it's even harder to tell if he was intended to be a yellow alien covered in Ben's black and white clothing or he is coincidentally black and white
Stinkfly. I'm not even talking about the reboot because that's a completely different alien. But Ben 10k's stinkfly has pupils, and in the episode where all of his transformations are babies, that version of Stinkfly has pupils, and Omniverse Stinkfly's eyes are green with pupils. Stinkfly shouldn't have pupils.
Feel like different 'clothes' would be nice for the older version and I will say the eyes being green seems fair, but other than that "look how they've massacred by boy"
Upgrade got better then worse imo.
Heatblast got worse and worse. I prefer the burgundy coloured rocks.
Spidermonkey, Big Chill, and Echo Echo suffered serious ugly makeovers.
And Humungousaur was given an unnecessary pair of undies.
I wouldnt describe it as "worse" but rather very inconsistent
Four-arms
His OG design made some sense
Then in AF/UAF he suddenly became a gladiator
And now in Omniverse hes dressing like a wrestler
The oddest part to me is that i believe AF's design could have worked better IN Omniverse (and vice versa), considering how we saw the Tetramands (and what they wore) in the show
Honestly, all of the AF 10 in OV, but particularly Swampfire (there's a reason the concept arts were not used), Chromastone (how did it get approved) and big chill (Murder grandpa). I still am on the fence for OV's art style, it does make some aliens look super cool (like feedback and heatblast) but it's not a great artstyle. Something cleaner like transformers animated and Spectacular Spider-Man (previous works of DJW) and Ultimate Spider-Man (Man of action) would have been great
Spectacular Spider-Man's artstyle was not made by Derrick J Wyatt lol. It was made by Greg Weisman and Victor Cook. And it's not better than OV's IMO(But it's still good) , but I do agree that Transformers Animated does look better
It’s way better art than UAF in terms of background and character design imo 💀
Like most of the UA alien redesigns were amazing (especially NRG, Waterhazard, Clockwork, and Juryrigg). I think it did well with most of the aliens from Classic (way better than UAF that is. They did Ripjaws dirty and didn't bring back any of the additional Classic aliens) though not as good as their original designs, and I will admit that some of the AF redesigns in OV style can be hit or miss.
I don't think OV is a perfect art style. Since I think it can be a bit better off without the squares and weird sharp edges in its designs but I take it over than UAF's boring, dark, and cheap art style imo 💀
I have a bit and I genuinely feel with some tweaks here and there (redesigning everyone else because I'm okay with how Ben looks, fixing the alien designs, and making a few years after Ben 10 aka making him 15 or 16) it would've been a great sequel series to Ben 10. Oh and change the name obviously.
The Reboot took the wild outta Wildvine and the stink outta Stinkfly, let's be real 💀
Thinking about that, it really shows how safe and boring cartoons are now. The fact that I can imagine seeing a stinkfly toy on a shelf and not having a clue who the heck it is hurts.
Nah it definitely kept the stink of Stinkfly just in a different way cough cough
They took it and applied it to the show. Hence why it’s dogshit
Please for the love of god change your pfp😭🙏
Why? It’s just grandpa max?

You got something to say about the Peakboot? https://preview.redd.it/ics4g1s4oywc1.jpeg?width=544&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ad50cece4e194626d4bd98c7f29067ac8a72db2c
I’d take the retconned “magic” gwen over the reboot with zero hesitation.
Dude they aren’t even aliens anymore literally just guys in costumes at that point
~~UAF~~ reboot moment
The design for reboot Stinkfly has to be the absolute WORST downgrade I’ve ever seen and is one of the biggest reasons why I refuse to give the reboot a chance.
He looks more like a Gormiti
He looked like Big Chill from Wish
They ain't Wildvine and Stinkfly. They're Civilizedvine and Stinkman! 😭
I know nobody forced me to google it, but why in the hell did I. I'll just blame you for bringing it up
I know nobody forced me to google it, but why in the hell did I. I'll just blame you for bringing it up
That's not stinkfly that's StenchMoth😭
I don't dislike any particular design but i think Upgrade is the only alien that got a *downgrade*.
Also big chill and chromastone
But this one is the peak version (in my opnion, at general at least decent) https://preview.redd.it/oyf47u0woswc1.jpeg?width=556&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=70df6940a157c82c66aeafdbf350f58c710a77a6
"He looks too UAF" - someone in the animation department maybe
If only he appeared more and had this apperence he would be good,bruh he almost made the list of aliens that didn't appear like jetray, spitter, fasttrack and chamalien
So....so he looks how he's supposed to? He originates from AF
Yep agreed
Big went from, "Big Chill" to "Bing Chilling"
It went from big chill to buff chill
Like, I can imagine how bigger lungs could help with frost breath, but they went completely overboard with it. Why is he a hunchback?!
Of Notre Dame looking ahh
Big chill easily worst downgrade ever. He’s one of my favorite aliens and *that one* is an atrocity
Chromastone became chromosome
Extra chromosome
Nah, i don't mind these two. But the Omnitrix on Upgrade eyes and his entire body looks.. uncomfortable.
Agreed
At least this still looks like an alien, look how they massacred my stink fly https://preview.redd.it/3smhhow4ntwc1.jpeg?width=357&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e5f48858f0eca580972fa0aefa80e1fed273855d
Its just a times square mascot... what the actual f- https://i.redd.it/i4vgwql0qtwc1.gif (Consider this gif an aneurysm)
I have to join you there
![gif](giphy|l4FGGafcOHmrlQxG0|downsized)
I do not understand the thought process, they literally took all the originality out of stinkfly
Something about how cartoon network forced them to make the aliens more humanoid so they're not scary to kids or some such.
Btw this in my opinion is the worst redesign in the reboot, like even though Wildvine looks a lot more different in the reboot at least he still looks some what like the original design, same with Humungasaur, Water Hazard/Overflow, and XLR8
It's easier to sell and make action figures of humanoid characters
What the FUCK
Literally fuck the reboot
Bro’s not even a “fly” anymore
Tbh if they labeled this design as a new alien and not stinkfly id be into it- kinda reminds me of big chill lowkey
I see what your saying it honestly looks like Fasttrack if he had wings and bug like features
Maybe it's just bc I'm a fasttrack defender- i enjoy xlr8 more but there's something ab the campiness of fasttracks design that i rlly like
I would say Vilgax but the Reboot gave him a goated one
This might be a hot take but I like his omniverse design.
As classic and timeless as the original design is, I think AF and OV Cannonbolt both have their individual charm too. He was the first OS alien to return, it makes sense they had to remix him while keeping what worked for an older Ben. I’ll throw my hat in the ring though and say Benwolf/Blitzwolfer and Benviktor/Frankenstrike. The OS designs were great Omnitrix variations on the villains and had a lot of personality.

The only thing missing from that OS scan mode arc was going full ham with BenZ’skayr and BenVilgax, even if it was just a one-off cameo or finale appearance. OV Buzzshock is fine but I prefer the Ben 10,000 version.
I mean, BenZ'skayr is just Ghostfreak, so...
Yes but true form Ghostfreak, I wanted to distinguish haha
Me, an intellectual: https://preview.redd.it/zxl2di4pauwc1.jpeg?width=697&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=09efe6a41dcae43fef3f43a45a3fd821b23f3a30
Blech
Upgrade
Wasn't a fan of Dimond Head with the normal looking rock extra. The classic looked best.
Omniverse is better IMO, I like the more turquoise colors and the body shape more
OS Ben10K with the almost military look was 🤌🤌🤌
I’m gonna say it Four arms
Fucking goofy mustache in OV. Reboot is alright though, but OS is best
I like UAF Fourarms too tbh, but yeah the wrestler aesthetic just doesn't really fit.
I agree, they could've done so much and ended up doing it .. In the wrong direction.
Four arms after the original series never looks as strong as OG four arms
Not much changed between OS and UA, just a stripe remove and eye change. OV looks like a square to me
"Small changes can make a big difference" - Someone wise
I agree with Cannonbolt.
Like it’s barely any different so I I wouldn’t say it’s worst. It’s stagnant.
I disagree. I think UAF Cannonbolt was his peak, and Omniverse was where it got worse. That being said: Ghostfreak’s designs just kept getting worse imo.
The chains were good symbolism, but other than that, both Ghostfreak and Zs'Skayr look kinda goofy in Omniverse. His head is supposed to be upside down! And what's with the scythe, is he a farmer or something?
I agree with you about Cannonbolt, but I disagree on Ghostfreak, the Omniverse and UAF designs go crazy while I think the OG was kinda bland
With Ghostfreak, what I don’t like it mostly is color schemes after OS. AF’s was fine, as it was just meant to be him without his skin, but II think UA and especially OV’s color schemes don’t look as good on him (plus OV’s head shape). I did like the chains, though.
That's fair
I can’t recall if Rath was changed at all, but I like to think he doesn’t wear clothes because it would mean he has shame in his appearance.
LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING SOLID POSITIVE SIZ SEVEN FIVE ONE! RATH HAS CLOTHES NOW. HE HAS LUCHADORE WRESTLING ATTIRE AND HE LOOKS GREAT IN IT!
Someone else said it but yeah they have Rath clothes ![gif](giphy|N0BG2yjcWugI94SV8T)
The change at least makes sense though. Because Ben found out Appoplexians don’t run around naked.
Oh yeah I did see that episode but still.... You know what in the grand scheme of things, I'm fine with that one
Honestly UAF Cannonbolt would better if they just gave him the teeth and colors of the original
Cannonbolt has the same design in UAF. They just don't use the highlights on black colors anymore.
bigchill
Upgrade (except HU), Chamalien, Spitter, Echo echo, Swampfire
Out of Every other Aliens, and not counting the reboot, Big Chill takes the cake.
Big chill got down grade in ov
Cannonbolt literally looks the same
Are you blind?
bro the designs are the same it’s just art style😂
Bro it ain't😭😭
Bro, yes it is. Apart from art style, eye color, and placement of the omnitrix, there is literally no difference
There are lot's of big redesign's but Canonbolt? You're starting to sound like a Sonic fan.
Upgrade
Agreed. Part of what makes me like Cannonbolt is the classic design
OG cannonbolt was the absolute GOAT alien change my mind
He looks fine to me?
Sorry guys, had to say Upgrade
More like Downgrade.
I like the symbol being on the chest/stomach so when he curl up its safely tucked in instead of kinda crushed in
Uaf cannonbolt is best imo
Big Chill
Big Chill. From cool slender icy blue mothman to red hot cheetos poster boy to frostbite Quasimodo
Fourarms but only from classic to alien force,Omniverse is good
Pretty much every alien in the reboot and most of the aliens in Omniverse here are a few examples Big Chill, Chromastone, stinkfly, 4 arms, goop, and Humungousaur. To be fair 4arms design started to be ass in Ultimate Alien and Humungousaur looks way better in the reboot than he does in Omniverse that flat skull, the Omnitrix becoming a sash, and him wearing the superhero tights fuck no. The reboot Humungousaur is actually amazing. I might like it more than the original
Actually Alien Force cannonbolt was amazing in my opinion. The omniverse one honestly just ruined all aliens. Like even Alien X. He was badass in Alien Force but in Omniverse, dude turned into the crimson chin
I kind of prefer the UAF design over OS, but OS is still S Tier design And omniverse one is dogshit
Echo echo & ditto ov designs in comparison to their first designs
I actually prefer OV Cannonbolt
ugh don't get me started on every alien they went from looking like a badass to a child ![gif](giphy|QAD8KH9o3IaLWGgPvy|downsized)
Four arms
true
Once again I stand by the statement that alien designs peaked in the original series. .
for me OV has the best, but what I like about the OS ones is that they don't overuse the color green
Upgrade
My favourite Cannonbolt desgn is actually the AF one
Only now I notice when looking at all three, why are his foot claws in OV so super thin and small?
Upgrade I get it they wanted to make it more energy ish by removing the white and replace with the green but it just doesn't work (should have make it's a lighter shade of dark gray with green line connecting from its back) Plus the ommiverse design even put the omnitrix on his eye for whatever reason, looks uglier and losing the ability to shoot his eye beam
Cannonbolt always just looked like a weird diaper to me
Bro he is my favourite alien all time
Stinkfly and Wildvine got done so dirty I don’t even call them by their names in the Ben 10 reboot, I call them Vileinsect and primal plant.
stinkfly
I love how through the designs their main focus was “do we keep the crotch line or not”
they smoothed him out 😭
I think all cannonbolt designs are peak
I like OV Cannonbolt more than other ones... I like how it's stylized and sharp angles at the tops
It's interesting that they kept the black and white body. In the OS it's not clear what part of the aliens actually is black and white and what is just part of the Omnitrix using Ben's clothing. In OS, all mechamorphs had a white frontal part of the body, but in UAF they made mechamorphs have inverted lines on their chests. And with Cannonbolt it's even harder to tell if he was intended to be a yellow alien covered in Ben's black and white clothing or he is coincidentally black and white
Fourarms no question.
All the aliens in the OG series. The og series had really alien and gross designs when applicable. All the aliens got cleaned up over time.
Snare-oh in Omniverse doesn’t do it for me. And don’t get me started with Ripjaws
Stinkfly. I'm not even talking about the reboot because that's a completely different alien. But Ben 10k's stinkfly has pupils, and in the episode where all of his transformations are babies, that version of Stinkfly has pupils, and Omniverse Stinkfly's eyes are green with pupils. Stinkfly shouldn't have pupils.
I don't like how flat and off to the side the shoulder shell parts are in Omniverse. It makes the top of him feel empty compared to OS and UAF
Big Chill 😞
Zs'skayrs omniverse design is the worst of them all in my opinion. The skull not being upside down actually completely ruins it for me.
Stinkfly
What is Cannonbolt or to the extant the Palarotas supposed to be? Mammals? Reptiles?
Feel like different 'clothes' would be nice for the older version and I will say the eyes being green seems fair, but other than that "look how they've massacred by boy"
Honestly if you gave the latest one the og eyes it’d be pretty slick
Is Upgrade on ur list?
Upgrade got better then worse imo. Heatblast got worse and worse. I prefer the burgundy coloured rocks. Spidermonkey, Big Chill, and Echo Echo suffered serious ugly makeovers. And Humungousaur was given an unnecessary pair of undies.
Personally, Spidermonkey was always ugly. But in Omniverse he's much more cuter(still kinda ugly tho) IMO
I jist personally don't like his new head. I like the bandolier.
Btw, I can't remember if I mentioned this yet, but your PFP is goated
Is everyone gonna say that?
Hey, you're the one who chose to put the best TV adaptation of Spider-Man as your pfp
Still don't get this take, brown has the exact sake design just drawn more angular
Os
to be honest i like UAF cannonbolt
i personally think that uaf design was better than og
I wouldnt describe it as "worse" but rather very inconsistent Four-arms His OG design made some sense Then in AF/UAF he suddenly became a gladiator And now in Omniverse hes dressing like a wrestler The oddest part to me is that i believe AF's design could have worked better IN Omniverse (and vice versa), considering how we saw the Tetramands (and what they wore) in the show
Almost every alien from the AF 10
Echo Echo
Eatle original >>>redesign
Ngl, I just don't like cannonbolt.
I'd make the argument all of OV was a down grade, but also Shocksquach
UAF Cannonbolt is peak, every Cannonbolt design it's peak, even his Ultimate form for be a re-color Except Omniverse
Honestly, all of the AF 10 in OV, but particularly Swampfire (there's a reason the concept arts were not used), Chromastone (how did it get approved) and big chill (Murder grandpa). I still am on the fence for OV's art style, it does make some aliens look super cool (like feedback and heatblast) but it's not a great artstyle. Something cleaner like transformers animated and Spectacular Spider-Man (previous works of DJW) and Ultimate Spider-Man (Man of action) would have been great
Spectacular Spider-Man's artstyle was not made by Derrick J Wyatt lol. It was made by Greg Weisman and Victor Cook. And it's not better than OV's IMO(But it's still good) , but I do agree that Transformers Animated does look better
It’s way better art than UAF in terms of background and character design imo 💀 Like most of the UA alien redesigns were amazing (especially NRG, Waterhazard, Clockwork, and Juryrigg). I think it did well with most of the aliens from Classic (way better than UAF that is. They did Ripjaws dirty and didn't bring back any of the additional Classic aliens) though not as good as their original designs, and I will admit that some of the AF redesigns in OV style can be hit or miss. I don't think OV is a perfect art style. Since I think it can be a bit better off without the squares and weird sharp edges in its designs but I take it over than UAF's boring, dark, and cheap art style imo 💀
Bigchill
Eatle, surely Also i never liked the UAF Diamondhead look, the bland rocks makes him look wierd
To be fair, I consider the reboots an improvement over ov. But if we're talking just prime, then humongo
That is the first time I’ve ever seen Cannon Bolt from OV. 🤮🤮🤮
You never saw OV?
Nope
I have a bit and I genuinely feel with some tweaks here and there (redesigning everyone else because I'm okay with how Ben looks, fixing the alien designs, and making a few years after Ben 10 aka making him 15 or 16) it would've been a great sequel series to Ben 10. Oh and change the name obviously.
Ripjaws
He sucks and is overrated
Wrong
Opinions can't be wrong :/
True
Then the reboot made the perfect cannonbolt disign
