BURBANK, Calif. - February 25, 2021 - Nickelodeon, the number-one network for kids, and Hasbro’s Entertainment One (eOne) have partnered to co-produce an original animated Transformers series (26 half-hour episodes), based on the iconic global property. In the action-comedy series, a new species of Transformers must find their place and purpose among Autobots, Decepticons, and the human family that adopts them. The series will premiere exclusively on Nickelodeon in the U.S. before rolling out internationally.
“As soon as I read the creative concept, which at its core is about family, I knew we absolutely had to tell this story with our good friends at eOne and Hasbro,” said Ramsey Naito, President, Nickelodeon Animation. “The series will tell a reimagined story featuring both original characters and fan-favorites for a whole new generation of kids and families. The creative team at Nick, overseen by Claudia Spinelli, SVP of Animation Development, can’t wait to get started on building this new world.”
“We’re thrilled to be working with Nickelodeon to expand the Transformers animated universe and bring an all-new more than meets the eye story to life,” said Olivier Dumont, eOne’s President of Family Brands. “This new series is a fresh creative take on the brand, which will excite longtime fans around the world and soon to be fans alike, all being introduced to the robots in disguise by an A list creative team led by eOne’s Mikiel Houser .”
Hasbro launched Transformers in 1984 as a toy line and animated series. Its success led to an animated movie in 1986, many future toy lines, and a series of live-action movies.
The all-new animated Transformers series is executive produced by Ant Ward (Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles), and Nicole Dubuc (Transformers: Rescue Bots) and developed and co-executive produced by Dale Malinowski (Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles). Produced by Nickelodeon Animation Studio, the series is developed for television by Spinelli and Dana Vasquez-Eberhardt, Senior Director, Current Series and Development, Animation. Production will be overseen for Nickelodeon by Conrad Montgomery, Vice President, Current Series, Animation and for eOne by Mikiel Houser, Director of TV Development.
The forthcoming Transformers co-production is part of Nickelodeon’s strategy to be the home of the biggest franchises kids and families love, and it expands Nickelodeon’s growing portfolio of influential properties that already includes SpongeBob SquarePants, PAW Patrol, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Blue’s Clues & You!, the first-ever SpongeBob spinoff, Kamp Koral: SpongeBob’s Under Years, the all-new animated Star Trek: Prodigy series and the recently announced The Smurfs partnership.

We are still stuck in comedy mode though (isn't that what Botbots is for?). Unfortunately a lot I feared is coming to pass. Although the last decade gave us Transformers Prime, I don't see anything looking good on the horizon, once Kingdom is done. If the 2022 toy line does not retain anything for an older fans such as myself, I may be close to my 2nd hiatus from the brand entirely, which is sad.
Nick's 2012 TMNT cartoon was awesome and it was an action-comedy full of lots of jokes and hilarity in addition to its dark and violent moments.Avensis-Mahiya wrote:But of course, following that is the shadow of doubt. I hope that Nick treats TF better than Cartoon Network did...but then again, let's look at how they did TMNT dirty.

You mean Cyberverse. This will be the successor to Cyberverse. Kingdom's successor will be the next non-TV-show nostalgia-based Generations line.Changewinds wrote:This new show is probably where the toy line is heading after Kingdom as well.

Silly, that's what Cartoon Network's shows look like. Nick's are much flatter and less balloony.Ultra Markus wrote:here's a leak of what the show will look like

Leave it to Dead Metal to have the word 'Pronz' in his signature.
Wouldn't the BotBots cartoon make more sense as that, though?ZeroWolf wrote:Couldn't this actually be the successor to Rescue Bots though? I mean there's been two Transformers cartoons on TV after all. The adopted line makes me think that this is going to be pre-school age or there abouts.

Nuh uh. It was from Boulder Media. That art is what CN's own in-house productions by Warner Bros. look like. Cyberverse was a third-party production (hence why CN mistreated it so much, putting it at 6am on Sunday mornings while all their first-party Warner Bros. shows get good timeslots).Ultra Markus wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Silly, that's what Cartoon Network's shows look like.

Cyberverse was from cartoon network too
