Gipetto0812, DPrime, soundwave,
I don't "hate" anything or at least not in the way the word is frequently misused on the internet
Cartoons really aren't my thing and never have been....being a Transformer fan for me has always been about the toys and occasionally the comics.
That said I did give Animated a try and liked Blurr's design but that was it.
I like the War For Cybertron videogame and will probably like the sequel but I'm not intrested in the toys for several reasons, namely,
1.They don't fit with the theme of my display and I'm not really one for multiple versions of the same character.
2.Most of them are Deluxes....I feel that the likes of Prime, Starscream, Shockwave and Onslaught should be no smaller than Voyagers.
3.Something has been lost in the translation from 3D model to a physical product and the majority of them just look poor....I don't know whether Hasbro have had some new sculptors or if it's because they've also been doing the simplistic Prime designs and they're stuck in that kind of style but something looks off on some of them....Prime in particular looks like a huge step back from the WFC version.
Had the new cartoon used the same aesthetic as WFC I would possibly have given it a look but once I saw all the "Bayformers lite" designs my intrest ceased.
As for the Bayformers movies I bought into the hype for a while but once that wore off I realised what a pile of crap they were I didn't even bother with DOTM and will be doing likewise with TF4.
I don't expect Shakespeare from a live action Transformers movie but I sure expect better than the drivel Michael Bay excretes onto the silver screen.
