    Maybe Hasbro or Paramount created it in preparation for AOE, and they were planning on using it as their new page. AOE was intended to be a soft reboot, maybe they considered starting fresh and later they had a change of heart, and just decided to use the existing page.

    I think that's definitely fan-made. It was registered back in 2017, which would have been while Bumblebee was being made. Plus, it looks kind of fake.

    For one thing, why would they use a bayverse aesthetic (especially with the banner art with bayverse Grimlock)? Secondly, I don't see either a Paramount or an ALLSPARK Pictures logo nor do I see a copyright symbol. . .I don't see anything yet on that page that makes it look official. . .Could just be a fanpage. . .

    You can't be serious, right? No official Beast Wars movie page would use a random copyrighted image of King Kong from the Peter Jackson movie as the avatar. Like, it's not even a Paramount film.

    Yeah move on as in go back in time like all we have is G1. It's not the safest option it's t
    Yeah move on but going back to the 1979's like we just had G1 and Bayverse. It's not being safe, it's being too scared to do anything else, deciding only the fans who got the franchise started matter. They failed by getting a guy who hates transformers to direct. Fix that and the movies would be better. None of this picking one era, who should they catter to now, your turn to be disappointed crap.

    1979? Uh, Transformers first came out in 1984, with some of the toys having 1983 production datestamps.

    That's a silly argument since you know why G1 sells? Appealing designs and it's well known. That Bumblebee trailer first dropped? EVERYBODY immediately thought that was Starscream even though he hasn't really had his original G1 design in a main media flagship franchise incarnation in over a decade.

    Or, how about Sonic? Broke records as being the most profitable video game adaptation film to date. Funny how it's likely this is almost entirely due to the highly public situation where Sony delayed the film to accommodate the design reset to the original as opposed to the rat thing they were absolutely going to use.

    That and just look at the toy sales numbers. AoE's toyline bombed and didn't even include all the named villains and TLK wasn't exactly a hot seller either, yet right now with WFC Siege and Earthrise? GANGBUSTERS.

    I mean, they got Knight for Bumblebee, and the end result was a pretty solid film that paid more lip service to the original series than the bay films ever truly did. I still absolutely enjoy watching the fight between Bumblebee and Dropkick at the end, because Bumblebee does the same action of driving to get tackle momentum as Jazz from the G1 intro sequence.

    The reason they'll go with G1 is because the designs simply are far more recognizable and pleases the most people. To be fair, it isn't like Bumblebee himself is strictly G1 - after all, he's still got a front car nose chest, whereas G1 proper only had a roof chest. And "Blitzwing" is pretty much a generic seeker since we pretty much did get Starscream on the same body with a more accurate color layout (blue arms) during the Cybertron sequences.

    Acting like going with G1 is some kind of exclusionary favoritism is a completely absurd notion. Or, maybe it's just Hasbro being a business and which side is giving them more money? Hint: Not the bayverse anymore.

    Yeah, after watching the trailer for the new netflix show, it looks like hasbro is definitely going balls deep into g1, which honestly, I do not think is the greatest idea. Especially if it is full on g1, and not like mixed g1 like we had with the high moon games and even tf prime. This whole thing is gonna back fire and it is gonna be hilarious.

    G1 is not going to be the safest option for Hasbro to rely on forever and that's a clear fact. It doesn't matter how beloved and popular it is nor how much you grew up in it during the 80's because even those are only going to take a beloved IP so far Transformers or not before it WILL become stagnant and repetitive. It may be selling great now but it won't be that way forever. It's not a matter of if it'll happen but when it'll happen. So them eventually making plans to be prepare for that to happen with the BW movie is a smart move on their part. So to those saying that Hasbro will only rely on G1 from now on because of how the Bayverse faltered or how the previous attempt at a connected universe didn't work out in the long run for whatever reasons that may have happened contrary to what some people may say, you all need to be reminded of how trying to do the same thing over and over again was what killed the Bay movies to begin with so Hasbro trying to do a similar tactic with G1 across all of it's medias will end in a similar fashion if they don't shake things up again sooner or later. Disagree with me all you want but when that happens don't say I didn't tell you all so.

    Also like I said before they don't need to EXACTLY like the original BW show like how the Bumblebee movie wasn't fully G1 or for that matter the Sonic movie wasn't exactly like the original games as long as it keeps the heart and passion of the original intact. That's what good adaptions are about. Making changes when needed to in order for the movie to work.

    I do perfer the asthetic, but that is not what i was talking about. At all. I was saying them going completely g1 would back fire. If they chose to do something like fall of cybertron the game did, or even something akin to tf prime. Bumblebee was decent enough at blending the idea of g1 and the previous live action. But them just full blown g1ing the entire thing might not be the greatest idea.

    I'm 110% fine with them using G1 aesthetic as long as they allow some creative freedom in the designs. By that I mean stuff like Travis Knight's Optimus (and the other Cybertron designs). They were heavily inspired by G1, but we had never seen those exact designs before. They were still artists' creative takes on the G1 characters, with a lot of new little details and whatnot. They said "how can we take the designs we love and make them work on screen?"

    If the movies start going the route of the Netflix cartoon...literally just 3D modeling the toys...I'm not onboard. To be frank, I probably wouldn't even go see movies that do that. Not because I would hate them, but because I can't think of a less interesting aesthetic (no, I don't plan on watching the Netflix show either). It's worrying to me because almost all the recent Transformers fiction has used extremely toy-accurate designs. Either Generations-based or Evergreen-based. I just can't get behind that approach, it completely lacks creativity. I really hope the movies don't start doing this. I don't think they will (I just can't see Paramount putting out a movie like that), but who knows.
