I have eternally hated Disney franchises and do still today.
Once they messed with Squaresoft, THAT sucked too.
These are the same freaks that STOLE Kimba the White Lion and got caught by the court shredding Winnie the Pooh ownership documents!
And they got away with that and everything else they do... because they're rich as hell.
Goodbye, Transformers... goodbye My Little Pony...
I'm guessing Lego is next now.
To say nothing of all the GLORIOUS 3rd-party content.
Perhaps even this very site as well.

The Tommy/Prime story bits (however minute they were) still happened, though.PrymeStriker wrote:Sabrblade wrote:no one ever remembers G1 season 5 from 1988.PrymeStriker wrote:The TV show of G1 lasted from 84-87.
Yeah. That happened. But those episodes were basically the same episodes from the previous 4 seasons (and the movie cut up into 5 episodes) with some Tommy + Prime love scenes interaction at the beginning and end, so I didn't count them.

Somewhere, Jason Jansen is looking back on his life and wondering what happened to himself.![]()

Well, they did air as actual episodes, rather than one-off commercial bits. What's to stop us from considering Optimus having become a Powermaster, telling war stories to a kid, and helping out other Autobots like Grimlock, Joyride, Cloudburst, Sky High, and Landmine, all happening at some point after "The Rebirth"?Seibertron wrote:This is really a stretch. It's as much of a stretch as saying that the commercials continued the cartoon continuity and it last until the 1990 Action Masters commercials aired. Or that G2 should count as additional seasons.
The G1 cartoon ran from 1984 to 1987. Any statement other than that is trying to make something out of nothing.

Handels-Messerschmitt wrote:Because the circumstances in which people are hired are not equal. You agree to it in a legal sense but if you don't agree to employment anywhere you will be without income and unable to pay for a home, clothes, healthcare and food. You are under far more pressure to be hired by anyone than anyone is under to hire you, specifically. Companies know this very well and make the most of it.
While most of the country focused Tuesday morning on the presidential election, Wall Street analysts turned their attention to Hasbro.
Stock in the Pawtucket-based toymaker (HAS:Nasdaq) spiked 6.8 percent to $38.66 at the opening bell amid speculation that Disney (DIS:NYSE) was preparing a multi-billion dollar bid for Hasbro.
Hasbro declined comment, citing its policy of not talking about rumor or speculation. CNBC analyst David Faber reported that Hasbro's advisors told him there's "absolutely nothing going on that they are aware of at all, in any way, shape or form" involving Hasbro or Disney.
Wall Street analysts said a Disney acquisition didn't make much sense, just after Disney agreed to buy Lucasfilm Ltd. for $4.05 billion. And for any deal to happen, Hasbro would have to dissolve agreements with Disney's competitors.
The analysis sent the stock down to $36.75 by 10:30 a.m., but then it crept back up to close at $37.79, up $1.62 for the day or 4.5 percent on extremely heavy volume of 7.2 million shares. The stock is now up 6.2 percent over the last two trading days.
Disney's stock closed at $50.47, up 15 cents a share.
Stay tuned

Those piece of smeg jerk-wads have ruined what Walt made. They have sullied that company with the cries of PERVERTS for more! I have a feeling they'll try to make Sideswipe and Sunstreaker grope in a closet for a month, then "bring them out" with Red Alert. NO SMEGGING WAY!![]()
