As other poster's said, bringing TF into the mainstream again has revived it for a good solid number of years.

I find that the vehicles should have been more diversified. I own some of the GM TF accessories for the Camaro and I am happy with that. I kinda hope that they revitalize the OEM lines and put out some solid die-casts.

I really like the way they portrayed Prime. In a time of war terribles act or betrayal and attrocities happen and people change and do things they hate of regret. It was very "human" of him to be swept up in the chaos of war albeit in a negative way. Primes regrets...

Re: Thank you Michael Bay.

Thanks for some neat toys. Thanks for showing the world TF is a viable block buster franchies, and lastly, thanks for the money. The money will guarantee TF intelectual property will be around for a long long time.

Re: Thank you Michael Bay.

Thanks for making yourself and Hasbro richer while i get Poorer.


I didn't like ROTF but i liked TFTM and DOTM was not half bad considering the previous film.

Re: Thank you Michael Bay.

while its nice to see the TF intellectual property will last a bit longer thanks to this movie.......aftermarket toy prices (ebay, online retailers etc) has also risen up unfortunately; its much harder and more expensive nowadays to get hard-to-find toys compared to before the movie came out

Re: Thank you Michael Bay.

Thank you, Michael Bay for giving us the most exciting car chase sequence ever filmed. I was on the edge of my seat during the entire scene

And of course it looks amazing in 3D!

Re: Thank you Michael Bay.

Thanks for accelerating and further alienating me in a brand I actually once gave two shits about.

Re: Thank you Michael Bay.

I'm glad he did the movies decently well. I'm really glad it didn't turn out like the Super Mario or Street Fighter movies.

It brought in more money to Hasbro so they could keep making classics line toys. It's even got me collecting the movie toys which I never thought I'd ever do

Re: Thank you Michael Bay.

Thanks Mr.Bay, for telling the fandom that "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few." I'm probably gonna get hunted down in the fandom for this, but its not really about us, its about the general audience who are looking for a action-packed popcorn flip. Movie Transformers toylines are essentially really successful Movie tie-ins.

While not a G1-er like most others (wasn't born then, sorry XD), its still amazing how Hasbro has a good chunk of my money now. Now if you'll excuse me as I go back fiddling with my Orange Skeleton Samurai Tank thing.

I'm thankful for all the wonderful toys we would have not gotten otherwise. I also enjoyed Sam's character arc, over the three films.
