    I think this is a smart idea. These figures needed a series like this.

    I was hoping we would get some stop motion shorts focused completely on botbots. Now we are getting a full blown animated series?! This will be fun!

    • A trailer will come out.
    • It will be downvoted into oblivion and deranged people will send Boulder Media death threats.
    • People will blame the reception on entitled fans and declare the effusive love for it even though it's not out yet.
    • The show will air and no one will show up. Why watch a Minions/Teen Titans Go clone when copious amounts of those shows already exist?
    • YouTube critics will be unrelentingly negative, critics at places like Polygon or io9 will declare "pretty good" and dismiss anyone who doesn't like the show as a bigot.
    • The show will then be cancelled in less than a year and forgotten while Hasbro moves to chase the next trend.

    I was really hoping that we were going to get a comedy series similar to TF animated, but no we’re getting frikin bot bots. I can already tell that this is already going to be extremely unfunny, I really hope that I’m proven wrong. Aside from this what do you think the next mainline show is going to be after kingdom? I really hope this is not it.

    My son will be so excited! I don't understand the negativity, there's no possible way this could be worse than the WFC Netflix series.

    I'd like to see it come back to a few places. Seriously the only places I've seen them is Target and Five Below.

    Boulder Media is making it so it will most definitely be Flash.

    As someone on the fence about Botbots, it's hard to be excited about something when you can see it's path to cancellation so clearly.

    It was more mediocre than bad. It could and should have been better.

    Curious, if only because BotBots as a toyline seemed to be petering out over the last several months, but I guess they're gonna try giving it a fresh push.

    Hard to imagine a show like this as anything other than a TT-Go "LOL Random!" silly cartoon, as it fits BotBots in general, but maybe we'll be surprised.

    Don’t really get the backlash for this. I thought tf fans were paranoid about the proposed transformers comedy series because they were expecting Thundercats Roar with established transformers characters (kinda wish it was the case just to see the shitstorm it would cause). this is probably just a spinoff that probably won’t be around for too long and will be harmless at most.

    There's a new rescue bots series. I Think it's still airing. We need a real transformers series again.

    If we get TF Cartoons like this then will never get a good transformers series again. The netfilx thing will end next year. After that is THIS What you want for Transformers? I Don't..

    To each their own. I could barely make it through it.

    I'm a vegetarian. Do my eating habits affect yours in any way?
