We got them to walk, run, and even dance.
Now, they can jump.
And my fears of our future robot masters grows a little more.

A damn sight better than most predator offerings.
Welp, that's it. I've officially lost all hope for future generations.
To be fair, as big of a manchild as I am about Transformers, even I can admit the G1 cartoon is pretty awful. Also save for Prime they used the super-ugly comic versions of characters, maybe even the awful as hell UK comic versions.
e: But I will never utter a bad word about the '86 movie. It's the best thing to come out of the franchise.
Wait, was there ducktails playing during that? I... don't think I was paying attention

I liked G1. My favorite episode was Optimus Prime's origin. I haven't watched too many of the newer ones, but from what I did see, it looked liked they dropped a lot of the complexity and rules, like only Decepticons can fly, and Decepticons are better fighters because they were the warrior class.
I mean yeah, some of the episodes are still pretty good if I really think back on it. The overall problem is extremely low production values and pretty poor quality control, plus characters getting phased in and out based on toy sales. There are tons of moments where you'll see glaring color errors on characters and in many cases, the wrong voice coming from a character, among other things.
Most of the new series (save for a couple that are obviously aimed at much younger children) started to focus more on story rather than selling toys. Animated, Prime, and Beast Wars are all pretty solid shows (though BW is really hard to watch thanks to the ugly as sin CGI).
Madison Heights. Bedroom community to Warren that's still upset that they lost the Abbey Theater and Jumbo Buffet.
