    And yet, you don't see much of BW fans, TFTM fans, but also Beast Machines fans, TFA fans and maybe even TF: Prime fans arguing endlessly with the consistensy and intensity that UT and movie fans do with everyone else. I wonder why that might be.

    Yeah, everyone knows that whole "Trukk not Munky" ordeal, which lasted for about half a season of BW, until the majority of G1 fans embraced BW and cherrish it to this day. It's the go-to excuse to blame the fans for not embracing every random piece of crap that has had nothing to do with Transformers, other than Hasbro putting the logo on it.

    You do understand that this is universally regarded as one of the single dumbest things Hasbro ever did, right? The original movie was a failure and signaled the slow decline and ultimately the death of G1 specifically because they tried to kill everyone and replace them. And then at the very end of the cartoon they tried bringing them all back, Prime included, and that didn't work.

    Oh, right, they did the same thing with Age of Excrement more or less, just with less physical Optimus Prime death (and only because he'd already died two films earlier) and look where that led - TLK where they did a full 180 and tried to bring back as many characters as they could, except it didn't work. Almost as if it was still just as fucking stupid and brand damaging as the first time.

    Simply forcing change for the sake of change is never a good idea.

    Same (it being a prequel with Orion and Megatrons friendship has some much to be explored and informative to GA and can have people actually find Megatron a good character and give him character development) also i know animation is expensive but I wouldn't be surprised if we see some cameos by G1 characters we know maybe even in the background (Sideswipe, Ironhide, etc.)

    Right.
    Seeing the Knightverse aesthetic in full would be glorious.
