Man, I wish Hasbro could tap into me as a Transformers consultant. My sole job to say to their creative team is "WTF?" That would be the only part of my job. They'd show me something. I'd go "WTF?" and then they go back to the drawing board. When they show me something good, I'll give them an Energon Goodie and go back to saying WTF to the other designs.

Hey, at least Prime has a face plate and not lips!
Its actually kinda hard to wrap my head around this. I mean, TFs have *always* been cartoons on TV, and yet this new series looks the most cartoony yet!
Seriously, though, lets put emotion aside and think about this somewhat logically: Many of us did not / do not like the movie designs, but since Hasbro can't perfectly mimic the movie designs, the toys have been pretty cool, all things considered. So, although "cartoony" would be easier to turn into a toy than the hyper detail of the movie, I still don't see Hasbro being able to truly duplicate, in toy form, the smooth "every-surface-blending together" look of this cartoon, while still having figures that can transform. They could duplicate this look with the Robot Heroes, 3" titaniums, and the other lines of non-transforming TFs that they have, but I think the very act of being able to transform will bring about figures that still look like TFs. They may screw up the faces again, like the movie toys, but I think the bodies will still fit in right next to Cybertron and Energon figures.
Well, that's my opinion, anyway.
