So was G1, and Armada. And Energon. And Cybertron. And most of those actually looked like something when they transformed. A handful of steps took you from brick-ish robot to a car, or truck, or jet. These go through a couple steps and take you from brick-ish robot to brick-ish robot that fell down. I have yet to see a single one of the 6,328 Optimus Primes from this line that don’t look like a truck that drive off the highway and into a nuclear reactor. Lucky Bumblebee looks like a car usually, but turns into a brick-ish robot with a car on his back. It just vexes me that Hasbro cries about their sales going down when this stuff looks like the Mexican knock-off Transformers that you find in Dollarama for $3. Just because they’re geared towards kids doesn’t mean they have to be so lazily designed. Shrug.
