Derrick Wyatt truely is the King of Kings, plus he really seems to be enjoying himself in the fandom.

 

They're new to us. We have time to change them. All the time in the world. MWAHAHA.

 

I wholeheartedly agree.

 

Both are awesome, specially Bob, can you get anymore handsome than THAT guy?

 

Great points.

I've appreciated the way Derrick has made himself accessible and seems to have a genuine interest in the franchise and the fans. There were times I wished I enjoyed TFA more, simply for the fact that I liked what I read about Derrick.

Orci rules, too. If I were in his shoes and reading some of the things people were saying about my work, I probably wouldn't have given them a second thought. He has, in spite of that.

But yeah, I miss Orson. And his spelling.  

 

I love Derrick! I just asked him for an interview, and he said yes. Just like that. Both of those guys are the greatest.  

 

Agreed 100% about Wyatt. He's definitely made the behind-the-scenes side of this franchise seem a LOT less faceless & unapproachable. You can tell he is a true and equally passionate fan with undeniable knowledge about the franchise as a whole, and it's only been made better having played such a major role in it. I love that he doesn't just flippantly throw together design ideas for the sake of adding a new character, does impressive research on the characters he introduces and ultimately "Animafies", and even comes up with his own reasoning and/or backstories to help explain why a character looks or sounds they way it does regardless if it ever makes it into the actual show. The guy is just awesome no matter how you cut it, whether or not you do or don't like his design style.

Orci... no comment. I don't want to derail a positive thread, so I'll just leave it at that.

 

Derrick Wyatt is a genius IMO. And he seems like a really nice guy too; clearly very passionate about his work.

 

I'm glad that both of those guys have been so willing to talk and approachable about their respective corners of the franchise. It's nice to see someone be willing to communicate and be straightforward as they both are (hint hint Hasbro)...

 

They raped my childhood.
Trukk not munky
Wheelie sucks. yada and yada some more...

can't please everybody all the time and that is a risk they take at their jobs.
With all that lame-oh pressure, these two genuinely act like they have the best job in the world and want to share it with the fans.
Still not a huge TFA fan, but even a ninny can see the love Derrick Wyatt puts into it and i appreciate that.
they are 2 good guys
peace.

 

Derrick Wyatt is among the rare few that does appreciate it.

I can't say the same for the other people who see it as an excuse to exploit the fandom for their own ends.

You may not see it but this fan does.

 

Derrick Wyatt didn't have to even bother with acknowledging my silly question, let alone go the extra mile to get the answer to it when he didn't know. I cannot express how much that meant to me.

TFA is a terrible looking show but I do have to admit that at least Derrick talks to the fandom which is a nice bonus and seems like a good guy.

 

Two really great guys for giving us the chance to see some of what goes into making Transformers. Can't think of any post where they weren't really nice to the fans even if they didn't agree with the fan.

 

It's just like 1996 and Larry and Bob are all up in da house yo!

Other examples include Renau--- uh, Bob Skir on bigbot / bottalk around Beast Machines time.

 

Though he's no where near focal as these two, I have enjoyed the response I got from Alex Kubalsky when I emailed him. To hear that his favorite and first transformer toy was Hound, and thus the reason he worked on Classics Hound: To ensure his favorite transformer got the update he thought he deserved.

 

TROOF.
