- who watches this?
my brother really likes it (mind you, hes 11... and acts like hes TWO  :evil
i hear that it follows the original storyline a little, and ties in all the other transformers like the Dinobots and the Constructicons
i just cant STAND that animation

- I watched all of these on youtube!
It was great!
There's even one episode that just pays tribute to the classic movie
I went out and bought the Grimlock toy.

- I watch it.
I went it in thinking "ugh this will be worse that Transformers: Cybertron". But I've enjoyed the series so far
The animation is definitely the low point, but if you can look past that there are actually some really good stories. Plus it pays homage to the originals quite regularly.Currently Reading: Graphic Novels: Nightwing (90s series), Lumberjanes Regular Novels: Chronicles of Prydain Add me on Goodreads

- My only beef with the new one is the opening.
It almost looks like they copied the 80s version and added some new art and a different group doing the theme song..........which is sad considering they could have done so much more.
And i really dislike the animation style they used.

- some of the toys ARE cool
ill probably get an Optimus Prime (i have a goal to get an Optimus from every series... not working out to well so far)
i did watch an episode where the Dinobots were fighting the Autobots and they ended up on an island
i must admit it wasnt bad

- I thought this was going to be awful when I first saw the preview sketches of the animation. But honestly it has grew on me and I like it now. It's geared to bring in younger viewers which is needed to keep TF going strong. The toys also are pretty cool. I picked up Starscream and Grimlock and really like them. I picked up a few for my son (6 yrs) also and they are easy enough for him to transform and he loves the show.

- I will say the Talking Optimus and Megatron toys are very cool.
