These guys ignored the fandom stating "We're making our own movie not based on a toyline" then what do they do, they go to where the fans of the existing material and toys gather!?!

Difficult to accept your arguments. We've spent over a year interacting with fans, listening to concerns, explaining our decisions when we disagreed, and even changing our minds on a few points.
And like it or not, we're fans.

Could you imagine someone as deeply involved with this movie saying something else. I'm Not saying this comment is not complete lip service. But It seems a little Tired for every person who had a hand in making this movie to say they are a fan of G1 transformers, For some type Nerd street cred. I dont think most people buy it or care. I think you guys did a great job with MI:3. But outside of the action there is so many things that are completely devoid and misrepresented about the G1 mythos and character.

QFT. Given the number of times the franchise has been re-imagined (G1, G2, Beast Wars, Cybertron...) why should this take on it be any less legitimate than those that have come before?
Look at the X-Men flick for example.
"OMG thats not the original lineup!"
"OMG thats not what the uniforms look like!"
"OMG Wolverine isn't that tall!"
Yet at the end of the day, they were among some of the best Marvel adaptations produced. I honestly wonder at times how many people are 'hating' this movie production simply because it's seen as the in thing to do.

Brave men, these writers. Brave men indeed.
EDIT: Ooh! I though of another analogy: It's like George Lucas going to a Star Trek convention.
