Fasttrack in Omniverse Concept Art Sketch Revealed

On ask.fm, Derrick J. Wyatt has shown his current sketch of his Fasttrack Omniverse redesign. Fasttrack is the current canon alien to not have an Omniverse version yet, and fans has been waiting for a long time for Derrick to draw him, which lead to a GoFundMe that raised $5000 to get Derrick to draw his least favorite alien.

The sketch so far features a slender Fasttrack wearing clothes. His lightning bolt on his chest is much more pronounced and his face is much more angular. He has pupils and an arrow on his forehead. He wears fingerless gloves and shoes, which exposes his toes. It appears that the Omnitrix is intended to go on his chest.

Keep in mind that this is just a sketch, so his design may change a little in the final product.

Ben 10,010 - Future Gwen and Villains Image Revealed

A new image for Ben 10,010 that showcases future Gwen and the alien invaders has been revealed. The image shows that the alien invaders are purple. bulky humanoid aliens with pink X's on their face. These aliens are presumably able to shapeshift judging by the first teaser.

Future Gwen is also seen in a robot suit, which she presumably uses for battle. The use of the armor indicates that she does not have any magic powers like in the original series.

Ben 10,010 is airing in Turkey on February 20 and in Europe on February 27.

Ben 10,010 Air Date and Episode Synopsis Revealed

The episode description for the first season 5 movie event special of the Ben 10 reboot, Ben 10,010, has been revealed. 

"In a distant future, where Gwen is President of the United States, the earth is under attack by an alien horde. Gwen leads the resistance against the threat. Ben, on the other hand, has been out of touch with his family for a long time. After being persuaded to come out of retirement, the grown-up Ben returns to the past to ask young Ben for help. Only together can they repel an attack that threatens the future."

The synopsis reveals that Gwen is the President of the United States in the future, which may be a callback to what Ben 10,000 said in the Ultimate Alien episode Ben 10,000 Returns, in which he stated that Gwen was the President of the Earth, following him.  

In the reboot, Gwen has been seen holding a presidential campaign in Vote Zombozo.  

clockwork-ben-10k-reboot-season-5
Clockwork and Ben 10,000 on the Cartoon Network mural
Similar to the original series, Ben 10,000 is gonna be somewhat bitter and less cheerful compared to his youthful self. Unlike the original, he'll be the one going back in time instead of young Ben going to the future first. Could we perhaps see Ben 10,000 as Clockwork?

Previously, Ben 10,000 and Clockwork has been seen on a mural in Cartoon Network studios, who at the time were assumed to not appear in the reboot and were just drawn for fun. Other interesting characters on the wall included Rex Salazar, Goop, Jetray (who hasn't appeared at the time), Alien X and Vilgax in his true form.

Ben 10,010 is confirmed to air in European countries on February 27, 2021.

Ben 10 Reboot Season 5 Episode Titles Leak - Alien X, Ben 10,000 and Generator Rex Crossover Confirmed?

A Spanish website that shows information about Spanish dubs had give the names for upcoming season 5 episodes of the Ben 10 reboot. The article states that each special is 45 minutes long, which coincides with Duncan Rouleau's statement on season 5 consisting of "movie events", similar to Ben 10 Versus the Universe. 

The season 5 episode title revealed are:

  • Ben 10: Alien X-tinction
  • Ben Gen 10
  • Ben 10,000

Judging by the titles of these movie events, it's pretty clear that Alien X and Ben 10,000 are going to appear in season 4 of the reboot. Gen 10 seems a little more vague, but it may be referring to Generator Rex and a possible crossover between that and the reboot. Perhaps Rex Salazar is an Omnitrix wielder in the reboot, or he has ten different machines he can build.

In addition, Becky Lau, who worked on the Ben 10 reboot as a background designer, has released background art for Alien X Tinction Act 1.

Braindrain and Bungee Sponge Designs Revealed

Tom Perkins just keeps on giving. This time he shows off designs for Braindrain and Bungee Sponge. Bungee Sponge is one of the many joke aliens Matt Wayne came up with during Ben 10: Omniverse, while Braindrain is an Ormerowon, a zombie species that's been mentioned in the original series. Check them out below.

Braindrain

Braindrain is zombie alien from the planet Anur Ormerow in the Anur System. His species was mentioned in Ben 10: Secret of the Omnitrix at the end of the movie. Braindrain is only accessible to Ben 10,000 and he is able to drain the life-force from enemies and temporarily turn them into zombified minions. We can see green electricity coming out of his body, presumably life-energy.

Bungee Sponge

During Ben 10: Omniverse run, Matt Wayne joked about an alien named Bungee Sponge that Ben unlocked when he was 11 years old as an example of underpowered aliens that he moved on from. Tom Perkins' take on Bungee Sponge gave him two very long arms on his back, presumably to allow him to bungee jump off high places. He would be accessible by Ben 10,000.

What do you think of Braindrain and Bungee Sponge?

Sandbox, Snakepit and Shellhead Designs and Powers Revealed

Sandbox, Snakepit, Shellhead, Toepick and Atomix were aliens that were mentioned in the original series episode Ken 10. Out of these five, Toepick and Atomix would appear in Ben 10: Omniverse. However, Sandbox, Snakepit and Shellhead would only remain as mentioned aliens that are in Ken Tennyson's Omnitrix. Tom Perkins, one of the designers from the original series, went on Twitter and showed off his illustrations of how he would had designed Sandbox, Snakepit and Shellhead if they had appeared in the original Ben 10, along with their powers. Check them out below.

Snakepit is able to shoot lightning-like yellow lasers from his eyes that will temporarily petrify opponents, similar to Medusa turning people to stone. He wore the Omnitrix on his chest.

Ventrilosquid Concept Sketch

Derrick J. Wyatt, who worked on Ben 10: Omniverse as the art director, showed his first concept sketch for Ventrilosquid. An alien that was mentioned by Matt Wayne on his forums a couple times. The alien never made a physical appearance and is described as having some sort of telekinesis and ventriloquism. Check out the image below.

Ventrilosquid

So far, he looks like a squid with hair and gills. His tentacles resemble sock puppets and the Omnitrix is on his "chest" with two nodes sticking out of it, similar to Toepick's. It is unknown what his color scheme will be. 

Derrick is drawing Ventrilosquid as the $4,000 tier goal on his GoFundMe, which successfully reached its goal of $5,000 to get an Omniverse-styled Fasttrack.

Vilgax to Get the Antitrix in Ben 10 Versus the Universe

A promo for Ben 10 Versus the Universe may had accidentally spoiled a plot point in the movie. The promo shows Ben in his Space Armor analyzing Vilgax, however the art used shows Vilgax with his cape, constellation patterns and... the Antitrix?!

Vilgax with the Antitrix
The Antitrix has grown much large in size to fit Vilgax's wrist. The faceplate has changed from a "K" to a "V".

vilgax-kevin-glitch-movie

The trailer shows of Kevin merged with Glitch, with Vilgax increasing in size using some cosmic power, however, Vilgax doesn't appear to be wearing the Antitrix. It's unknown whether he took it off, or has yet to wear it. Kevin wearing Glitch could imply that he doesn't have access to his aliens.

Omniverse Jetray Design Revealed

Derrick J. Wyatt, the former art director of Ben 10: Omniverse, started a GoFundMe where he'll design various aliens that never appeared in Omniverse in the show's art style. So far, the GoFundMe has reached its first major goal, an Omniverse design for Jetray.

omniverse-jetray-redesign-ben
Omniverse Jetray

Jetray's skin is more pink in color, similar to Swift, a Human / Aerophibian hybrid. His crest is much larger and now has a third potrusion in the middle. His chest is now defined and he only has four gills instead of six, the gills are also lightning-shaped. Jetray now wear black suspenders with green circles that connects to his green shorts. The Omnitrix symbol is still on his chest.

Jetray would be second goal reached in the GoFundMe, the first being a young version of Ghostfreak.

Fasttrack would be the last alien that previously appeared in previous Ben 10 shows that would need an Omniverse design. Fasttrack is currently the most expensive goal in the GoFundMe, sitting at $5,000.

Milleous and Major Glorff to Appear in Ben 10 Versus the Universe

Milleous and Major Glorff in the movie
A new short trailer for Ben 10 Versus the Universe reveals that Milleous and Major Glorff are going to appear in the movie. You can watch the trailer here.

Milleous is the emperor of the Incurseans and appears to retain his Omniverse design. It is currently unknown if he is still voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson.

Major Glorff is an Incursean official who first appeared in the Ben 10: Omniverse episode; Rad. In the movie he looks similar to his original counterpart, however he is noticeably shorter, has smaller pockets, has brighter skin and different teeth. He also lacks the black on his gloves.

incarcecon-ben-reboot-movie
Incarcecon in the reboot movie
Along with the, the trailer also reveals that Ben will be traveling to Incarcecon, the enormous space prison that originally appeared in Ben 10: Secret of the Omnitrix. Incacecon appears to be next to an enormous pink portal, most likely being a portal to the Null Void. Omni-Naut Shock Rock appears to shock the entire prison.

azmuth-reboot-omnitrix-movie
Azmuth turning the Omnitrix dial
A very short scene shows Azmuth turning the dial of the Omnitrix, making the screen turn orange and display the number 17 in a stylized yellow font. 17 is the amount of aliens Ben previously transformed to, if one includes Gax and Upgrade. If one doesn't count Upgrade due to his DNA being used for Glitch, then the seventeenth alien may be Way Big, who's transformation sequence appears in the trailer.

Ben 10 Versus the Universe will air on the tenth of October on Cartoon Network.
