    I absolutely adore RB...but I dunno how well they'd translate into the moviverse. Minus Q and Brains, the movies haven't really showed any non-soldier TFs, as if civilians don't exist. So probably wouldn't work super well.

    Keep the same VA's the Bots have in their cartoon.

    Kids, yes, but it doesn't seem like actual Transformers without the Decepticons too. If adults and teens like it, that's fine but some of us just can't get into it. Though, I have to admit Dr. Morocco is a better human villain than most I've seen in the Transformers continuity.

    Nah. Very different tones. Maybe a throwaway reference or something, but... nah...

    nope

    The reason why they made rescue bots is because Hasbro wanted to make something more kid-friendly than Transformers Prime and also more kid-friendly than the live action films.

    To bring the Rescue Bots into the live action universe defeats the whole purpose of making it at all

    Just give the Rescue Bots their own movie. It'd probably be better than any of the Bayverse films. While most definitely aimed at the kiddies, RB does has fun storytelling and strong characterization, areas in which the Bay films are seriously lacking.

    Now that I think more on it...no. The Rescue Bots are not combatants. They're civilians. The Coast Guard, Firefighters, and Police force.

    Heatwave is the only one who seems to want to enter a battle.

    So, while the characters are really fun, I really can't see them fitting into Bayverse.

    Yes, because Rescue Bots Blades is the best character in all of Transformers fiction. To be honest, though, I think the Rescue Bots have too much personality to appear in the films...

    It would be nice to have the TF movies try to tie things together like Marvel have, letting the little groups pop up in the background as a nod and a wink (did Shockwave appear in AOE)? It would only take a mention or glimpse to keep the kiddywinks happy and involved, actually a quite good plan for the future of the brand.

    I say let's not introduce anyone new except like one person. It keeps the movie from being overcrowded.

    But you can always get rid of characters in order to introduce new ones.Of course it will not be pleasant for us fans but still if they are at least as good.....As for the Rescue Bots sure if you make them in Bayformer form like very different.
