or instead of always creating new shows from scratch, do what they did with TMNT and He-Man, take the original show and just update/reboot it. again it could open the door for Cullen's return.

1) If they do a series based on the movies then they would have to share profits with Paramount, in other words, it's not in their best financial business.

2) It's been done already see http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Generation_2_(cartoon)

Anyone remember when I posted this?:

Sabrblade wrote:Release the Japanese G1 series? This is very, very, VERY possible. Hasbro has stated that they DO have an interest in releasing them. Back in the December 2008 Hasbro Q&A, I asked the following question:
Sabrblade wrote:Since the Japanese-exclusive G1 cartoon series (The Headmasters, Chojin Masterforce, Victory, and Zone) were released on DVD in Europe and Australia, is there any hope of seeing them, and perhaps Beast Wars II and Beast Wars Neo, released on DVD in North America? Particularly the United States. From what we can tell, there is quite a demand!
And received the following answer:
Hasbro wrote:Hasbro has the rights to the majority of the past Transformers entertainment now, and we are currently formalizing a distribution plan globally. This doesn't mean that you will see everything at the same time - we are deciding when and where for the portfolio of entertainment.

So they are considering when and where they should be released. It may not be soon, but they could be on their way for release in the future.

To which Dead Metal replied:

It's easier and cheaper to translate and dub a series than make one from scratch, that will give them time to create the next TF series and give them something to broadcast on their channel.

So, who knows. We just might be on our way to finally getting some never-before-seen-in-America Transformers series from long ago and far away.

Reshowing G1 with new dubs of the Japanese episodes would be great.

That said If they were to go back and rework G1, I would hope that they would try to get as many of the original VA's back and redub their lines to rework/edit the episodes into one more consistent continuity.

That siad if they were to do it, there will be some bitching at each change that's made.

finally a new gijoe cartoon. Im hoping its the continuation of Resolute. Also hoping this new tf cartoon will give us something new. No more rehashed ideas. Heres what i would like to see, no humans at all(Have this new cartoon be on cybertron), real animation (CGI hasbro its time for another Beast Wars style cartoon)and a tone that will appeal to both kids and older fans (remember hasbro kids arent the only people who watch it). If Star Wars can do it so can Transformers.

If they used the comics for source material and then made the show have that same sense of maturity it would be great. However at the end of the day I think Hasbro believes that the older fans are gonna buy whatever they shell out just because we're collectors and the bigger base to concentrate on are the kiddies. At the end of the day can we blame them? After all collectible is just a mature word for toy right?

I keep hearing people say this. I believe that if they do that we will end up with more haters than Animated did. Seriously, it's a kid's show/toyline. To me personally that's it's biggest appeal, it takes me back to when I was a kid and TF just started. Makes me remember when the only thing I had to worry about was if my father's mustang was a Decepticon in hiding. But that's just me.

Please, no Beast Wars sequel or remake! The show was very good and it deserve a final rest (unlike G1 who is even more milked than Final Fantasy VII).

I am thinking that if they have a new cartoon that it will be bayformers based.

I doubt it.

first choice would be a spin off/sequel for beast machines, but only if its the vehicons (thrust and Obsidian in particular) and the same style as BM, although a cartoon would be ok too.

Second choice would be a cartoon based in the movie-verse probably before the first film, or between 1 and 2
