Good episode, also that's no Monorail, it's a train along with miniset versions of actually classic Lego sets, that's celebrated the 60th anniversary of the brick with tubes.
The problem isn't the people in the factories placing the stickers, it is the graphic designers who design them to go to the very edge of a folding panel .... they need to design them to have a mm of safety space. They also place them over top surfaces that aren't flat. If they are on a flat surface that doesn't rub during transformation the stickers are fine. How about "Hey, those stickers are really unfortunate."
Besides getting a sequel to Devastation, or a spiritual successor to the High Moon games the last genre would be to try an RPG. If they put the AAA money and time developing it, a Destiny style “MMO” or just an RPG where your buddies can hop in would be it. The alt. mode component to the gameplay could be tied to your “class”. Tanks are the tanks... it just couldn’t be half-baked or a mobile game. The problem being that it’s REALLY CLEAR that Hasbro is just focusing on mobile. It’s cheaper to develop for and easier to earn more money past the cost of entry(for the player), if any. Imagine hubs like in Destiny on Cybertron, then heading out into the sea of rust and random events dropping where some giant deceased Transformer is raised by dark energon. Could be cool. I’ll have to draw that sometime.
Given the timing, I wonder if Star Wars but good is happening because of POTP. Takara saved a lot of money and still had a stable of designers with nothing to do, I can see them asking for ideas and that one guy who HATED the old SW line jumped up and said I have just the thing.
