Prime, one of the most mature and plot driven transformers cartoons ends

>prime, one of the most mature and plot driven transformers cartoons ends
>instead of giving it a proper sequal, hasbro gives us a poorly animated kiddie shit follow up filled with juvienile jokes and shit characters and plot lines, and uses the status of “sequal” as loosely as possible as it is nothing similar in tone to prime and is made for retarded brats who have never seen prime nor would they appreciate it.
Why did hasbro fuck transformers over so much? Im glad the shit show RID is ending, but the next series looks like utter shit too. Will there ever be a good transformers show again?

>Why
toys

RID2015 was, on the whole, vastly superior to Prime.

>Gee, kids will aure buy toys from a show with a shit artstyle, terrible characters, and awful writing. Im so glad we dropped sopisticated stuff like prime, even though merch sales were better then. Seriously, fuck our fans
Im glad hasbro is in a fucking deficit, especially since they turned all the star wars figures into 5POA shit and killed marvel universe because the head marvel guy is a shit taste legends retard.

>RID2015 was, on the whole, vastly superior to Prime
Kill yourself, you have the mentality of a fucking child

cites children can't appreciate prime's mature themes.

acts more immaturely about RID worse than supposed retard children.

>complaning about shit writing makes me immature
Oh sawwy, did baby get offended his colorful show with dookie jokes get offended?

Sounds like Teen Titans Go conundrum but instead of Rescue Bots aesthetic with meta jokes, they try turning every bot into Starscream/Soundwave and half Beast Wars and then being a shadow of its former self.

Pretty much. I tried watching a couple episodes but couldnt help cringing the entire time. I feel insulted personally, as both animated and prime were a big part of my life for years and were among the only good shows on when i was going through a bad time in highschool. And hasbro just shit on all the fans of it just to appear to a more immature crowd. Oh, and the toys for this are fucking garbage comapared to the prime figures.

>tfw 2007-DOTM-Prime years are behind us
>Only Retool Wars remains.

This hurts the /toy/ in me.

Does it matter? The only genuinely good Transformers cartoon is Beast Wars. Don't listen to 80s nostalgiatards who insist their shitty toy commercial is god's gift to man.

They had a 6 year streak of good cartoons. It shouldve continued but instead they made dumbed down shit for retards. It could've been great but as usual, hasbro thinks about only the easy way out with the least anmount of effort possible.

Thats pretty much every company these days. It's all about chasing the buck.

>Gee, kids will aure buy toys from a show with a shit artstyle, terrible characters, and awful writing.

Yeah, the movie toys DID sell truckloads.

Free market was a mistake. Companies should be repremanded for making poorly constructed shit like this and selling it at ridiculous prices
At least those toys were artculated well, rather then modern chessy 1 step shit

>People bitched how terrible TFP was during it's run.
>Show ends
>Now people now bitch how good it was.

The cycle never ends.

...

I want to rip out brian goldners kike nose for alloweing this shit not only to get made, but become a standard of quality for his shit company.

>literally wasting plastic on this shit
And yet we can't get hollow covering panels.

1. Blame the overseas markets. TF is more profitable in places like China than in America. So they will conform to whatever is marketable by law. Also Asian countries sees TF as a product towards children anyways and nothing more.

Just look what Japan did to TFP. Jesus fuck.

>TF is more profitable in places like China than in America. So they will conform to whatever is marketable by law. Also Asian countries sees TF as a product towards children anyways and nothing more.
Fuck chinks and their shit treatment of our property.
>Just look what Japan did to TFP. Jesus fuck.
Didnt they make a mockery of arachnia in the dub their?

Airachnid is a boy chaser with a personality of a hyper pop-idol who wants to collect Jacku.

A huge insult to the original.

Yeah, it's insulting they actually remembered to give her a personality unlike her US counterpart.

She had a personality, and they didnt make her a fucking joke like the japs did.

I like her cold sly bounty hunter personality.

Yeah, she was pretty hot. Also loved how that show made arcee so fuckable.

>who wants to collect Jacku.
>A huge insult to the original.
I mean it wasn't like the first season wanted to go full humanfucker till Hasbro stepped in.

You got that right, user. Probably has something to do with those proportions.

God abandoned us after Beast Wars. The fuck you talking about.

Cry more Primefag. Not everything is made to appease you.

Machinma's Return is pretty good right now, even if it was animated on a 2 dollar budget. Dat smug antihero Megatron.

Yandere Airachnid >>>>>> American Airachnid.

>Machinma's Return is pretty good right now,

LOL.

Megatron and Overlord are great but the rest of it is garbage.

Nothing was made for them, they just discovered some ancient Transformers artifact that just HAPPENED to be on Earth this entire time.

>Machinma
>Good

No.

When it was the sequal then yes it was supposed to appese me you faggot

New IDW issues when?

>Loads of cool looking Cons in the show
>Only a couple of them get ANY representation in the toyline, but you get the main Autobots in every size class twice

Villains don't sell to kids as well. This has always been true in every toy line. Just be glad this isn't Japan, where toy lines NEVER make the bad guys except once in a blue moon.

>Villains don't sell to kids as well.
That is fucking bullshit. As a kid i would primarily buy villains. Hell, for a time, all i had were decepticons

Thats what marketing departments always say when asked about it.

I honestly think its because they retardedly believe old focus test facts. Toylines die because they keep making variants of the main hero and not enough other characters so people stop buying, but toy companies conveniently never learn from this

Toys as a whole are getting BTFO'd by shitware games on iphones. Remember, if the current CEO of Hasbro had his way, he'd have dissolved the company entirely and turned it into a fucking iphone shitware game company.

>Toys as a whole are getting BTFO'd by shitware games on iphones.
Kids still like toys. I think thats more of an excuse by companies to make inferior product to appeal to kids, hut i dont see how cutting articulation makes something more kid friendly as i loved highly articulated figures as a kid

Well thats because hes a fucking retard

Ha ha what the fuck, did anyone post this?

I hated that so fucking much.

I can only hope some of the RID characters catch on in the comics or future shows.

>meanwhile on cybertron tv
>"come to earth, we have dirt, car porn and hydroelectric dams"

Its a spinoff you dumb motherfucker.

Its the continuation of the series, either way spin off or not it had no right to be as shit as it was and as different in tone then a snyder film compared to adam west batman

>a snyder film compared to adam west batman
So you're admitting its better? Fair enough.

No, it was just a comparisson. RID is fucking kiddie shit

>kiddie shit = bad
Wrong.

should be a new Optimus Prime this week.

20th.
New Lost Light, Optimus Prime, and TAAO annual I think?

Awesome.

Transformers RID got four seasons when it was only meant to have two because kids loved it.

Prime was supposed to be five seasons but got canceled after two because kids hated it. The producer had to beg for more episodes to "wrap it all up"

You can "It's the children who are wrong" all you want but it doesn't change that your opinion is no longer relevant to the state of Transformers.

When its unentertaining garbage with shit humor then yes it is bad, especially when it inherited primes godtier storytelling and threw it all out the window.
Kids with shit taste shouldnt be caterd too, they should be kicked in the gut to remind them how retarded their taste in storytelling is. Transformers will always be for the fans, not snot nosed brats who prefer fart jokes to lore. Fuck off.

>godtier storytelling
I laughed.
>Kids with shit taste shouldnt be caterd too
I know you're probably memeing but when you're a company that makes toys and cartoons for kids you're going to "cater to kids". The target audience hated Prime and loved RiD. You weren't the target audience. Deal with it.

>got better ratings then RID, which has no reruns and only plays once a week. While prime gets reruns to this day
>toys sold better and where more popular
>”kids didnt like it”
I think thats just an excuse made by lazy fucks at hasbro to get out of writing a better story. If anyones responsible for prime taking its discovery for closing down the hub to replace it with shit cake wars and other mom shows.

Most of Transformers lore comes from the 84 cartoon and comics, which were the pinnacle of "dumb kid shit". Truer exploration of different ideas than writing something serious where the writers' bias from writing as humans comes to play.

They have an entire toy line targeted at collectors. We are the real fans they should cater too. Kids need to suck it uo and accept better storylines and shows then catering to the lowest common demoninator and letting them regress and never mature entertainment wise. Its you retards that use logic that says its okay to spam mind numbing shit like TTG because “well, the kids like it, and we never want to force them to grow out of being potty joke retards”.

G1 was far more dignified and had better plots then any of the shit on RID. Nice try though

(You)

>calling people i disagree with babies somehow devalues everything they say
T.retard

>Go to a planet where the Transformers are toy-sized compared to the inhabitants episode
>Shrink and go inside Megatron's body episode
>Funny faux-Libya episode
>Galvatron has a bad time in therapy episode

All of those are more compelling plots, i especially loved the episode where cyclonus put galvatron on in asylum planet

>Funny faux-Libya episode
I swear on my sisters camel that episode was solid gold, and you're shit for not liking it.

>Funny faux-Libya episode
What do you have against carbombia, user?

Never said the episode was bad, just silly.

It mocked my people.

>It mocked my people.
T.casey kasem

And next on the Top 10 countdown.

>Cyberverse looks even worse
How is this possible

Because hasbros run by incompetant faggots who ruin everything with shit writing and cutbacks to funding, and then wonder why the fuck the toy industrys failing.

ITT whiny manchildren mad the childrens toy commercial doesn't do what they want it to.

Just how new to the fandom are you?

>complaing about the departure from a competant storyline to poorly written shit makes us man children
Fuck out of here you brianless cunt

YOU CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS SHOCKWAVE!

RID as a whole is a lot better than people give it credit for.
The only time I genuinely found myself hating it was restricted to the first season only.
I hated the Megatronus plotline because it seemed shoved in and unnecessary because it felt like Hasbro just NEEDED to have a Megatron vs. Optimus fight for the show at the last second.
Also I hated Micronus. Smug minicon fucker.

TFP was good on my first watch, and then once I got around to rewatching it... I realized how much I hated certain aspects of the show.

1. Aligned Optimus is so personality-less and such a bad leader he just makes me disappointed in TF:P every time I watch it. This problem is also apparent in RID but to a lesser extent because the other characters' personalities distract me from him.

2. The Autobots as a whole are not written well in Transformers Prime. Yes, including Arcee.

My problem with Aligned Optimus is *really* what drags the show down for me, since he's so prevalent in the series. When I reconcile my favorite TF continuity streams, Aligned is almost only held up by Robots In Disguise anymore.

Prime is still miles better then RID
>not liking arcee
DONT YOU DARE INSULT MY WAIFU YOU GRUBBY MAGGOT INFESTED FAGGOT REEEEEEEEEE

>I'm sad because my boyfriends keep dying

Literlly more compeling then a show filled with fart jokes and childish humor and no dignified plot what so ever

RID was honestly way more enjoyable to watch than TFP. TFP took itself too seriously. Also it had that shitty "burr hurr gotta use a shitty photoshop filter because MATURE shows cant have any colors whatsover" that all shows like that have these days. I don't get why shows like that hate saturation.

>RID was honestly way more enjoyable to watch than TFP.
How does it feel to be a retarded man child
TFP took itself too seriously.
Kill yourself

I wish I could agree, user.
But Transformers Prime Optimus drags the whole show down with him. I dislike the 'oh well Optimus is Prime so he's always right' bullshit.
Worst Optimus ever written, sad to say.
He also looks like he's gonna have back problems later in life because of his tiny waist and big ass chest.

As for Arcee... her overall arc was basically
>REEE MY PARTNERS ARE DEAAAAAAD
and then she'd get over it for like an episode, before the writers sought to bring her back to broody and thus her characterization went nowhere. Her best moments were when she was around Jack, actually.

Besides, Ultra Magnus best girl in Prime.

She should have just solved this whole mess by getting with Airachnid

Prime was supposed to be stoic. And arcees plot was drama in the series. Also, best boy was knock out

I AM THE STRIKER-Z, MY LADY

Go take a nap man.

tfp prime had all the personality of a piece of cardboard. Easily the worst optimus and one of the worst parts of the show.

Stoic is one thing, personality-less is quite another. The only thing I could see TFP Optimus doing in his spare time is stare into the void.
The Orion Pax arc was such a cocktease because Orion Pax is sooo much more fun to watch than Optimus was, even in the two episodes he was in.

Primes don't party

This.

G1 and RID2015 are the two shows with the most in common.

The whole thing of "what it means to be Prime" in TFP is stupid imho

Apparently they're poorly written as well.

>Prime was supposed to be five seasons
Source? I thought the producer said it was always meant to be 3 seasons.

>The only thing I could see TFP Optimus doing in his spare time is stare into the void.

HEY OPTIMUS WANT TO SEE THIS KITTY VIDEO?

...

Lol no, G1 had interesting characters and didnt have boring as shit plot
