I think that is his question, why did the concept of coninuation go outof the door? Up until Transtech being dropped all TF lines were (sort of) part of the same continuity.

Misinformed nothing. What you are talking about is the production of the cartoon, which was done by AEON animation. The concept of the toyline that went from TransTech to a G1 continuation to lead into what became Armada was a Hasbro project, which was headed by Aaron Archer. The bible you speak of was BASED on this! Aaron Archer himself explained this at one of the panels of a convention a few years back. The story devellopment for Armada (and Energon) was not just by Takara, but was a venture between Takara and Hasbro both.sto_vo_kor_2000 wrote:From what I know......who ever gave you this is a bit miss informed.It was Takara that had this idea ,not Hasbro.....and we kind a got it.Micron Leagend's [Armada] original treament [Bible] had the serries set a a dirrect continuation of the G1 serries....with the mini-cons being new Targetmasters of a sorts,and there were Headmasters planed for the show,He did get on in Energon with Omega Supreem.It was Hasbro that declined on the idea in favor of a new start with Armada.Autobot420 wrote:Mainly i was referring to was thisRaymond T. wrote:TransTech was to be the follow-up to Beast Machines.

Yeah, people keep saying that, but that is only in regards to the development of the cartoon show and character/story development, not the toyline itself.sto_vo_kor_2000 wrote:It was my understanding that Hasbro left the creative aspect of the devolpment of those 2 shows up to Takara and that Hasbro main input was to insist on Unicron being a part of the show.

Basically, Hasbro gave the concept. Takara ran with it. Then they send it back to turn their adaptation into a western brand that became Armada or Energon. With Cybertron, Takara was even less involved. For Cybertron, Aaron Archer even wrote the entire storyline. Hasbro send that to Takara, that was turned it into Galaxy Force, who then send it back to be turned back into Cybertron.
The big problem with that was that Cybertron ended up being the translation of a translation of the original concept. One example is Starscream's crown. You can obviously see that the crown holds some sort of importaince and we know that it was a hint back to the original movie. But the movie never made much of an impact in Japan, because it wasn't part of the Japanese Universe and didn't get released in Japanese theaters until the 90's, long after even the HeadMasters cartoon. So for Galaxy Force in japan it held little importance. So when the product came back to the states, much of it meaning was lost by the time it was translated back into english and was dubbed over.
