No, we f***ing don't. Studio Series was the only Transformers toyline I actually enjoyed to collect and now it's threatening to start to turning into yet another boring G1 update line like we've had countless times before with the appearance of that bricky-looking G1 Prime (which doesn't look even half as good as the update of the real movie Prime. Goddamn, yet another reason why I wish that dumb idiotic unoriginal sloppily written movie had been a total reboot so it could be separate from this and all it's toys could go under a separate movie line. Don't even much like having my TWO (yellow and gold) VW Bees on that shelf anymore. If I want Transformers resembling the G1 characters I'd bloody well buy stuff from PotP, Siege and so on. But I don't cos those tired bricky designs don't appeal to me. Hell, most of them didn't do it for me even when I was a kid in the 80s.
And 'TRUE Cybertronian' designs? What the hell's that supposed to mean? This movie has really made a total mess of things. So all the movie characters I've loved the designs of for the past ten years are supposed to have originally looked like their G1 counterparts that I dislike? Gee thanks Travis Knight, you dick...

Carnivius_Prime wrote:Oh yeah sure he has. That's why instead of making a film centered around a war between many giant shape shifting robots which is..ya know...the point of the frickin' toyline...he just mashed a bunch of old films together such as Short Circuit and frickin' Love Bug. It's such shallow, obnoxious, feeble-minded nostalgia-bait. Quick the audience might forget it's the 80s apparently so chuck on another track of 80s greatest hits before they forget.
Poor Bumblebee. Reduced to a goddamn puppy for most of his supposedly own solo film. Also weird that Charlie doesn't even seem bothered when he briefly turns into MurderBee (why did he have decepticon eyes?)

When you say WfC, do you mean the activison games (good games despite Activison being bad publishers) or the Siege toyline? I'm good ob either just that if it's the former it would mean the first Aligned film other than Predacons Rising

Bumblebee has always been a "puppy" in the movies, just one that could also murder things like a rabid dog, also had the actual depth of a puddle in the Bay films compared to how emotive and full of life he is in Bumblebee.

Neither. I thought I remember reading/hearing him say he would like to make see (thanks Deadput) a film about the war on and then fall of Cybertron. I used those misleading acronyms to save a few key strokes. Sorry.ZeroWolf wrote:carytheone wrote:Didn't he express interest in making WfC/FoC movies?

Opinions! Isn't it crazy how we all have different ones? Me, I don't like the looks of 7/8 of the movie toys, but most sure are fun to transformCarnivius_Prime wrote:The hell are you even talking about?

I did. Many times when I first found out who he was. Again it's meaningless. He could have done something interesting and unique. Instead he just made an unoriginal piece of nostalgia-trashBumblebee has always been a "puppy" in the movies, just one that could also murder things like a rabid dog, also had the actual depth of a puddle in the Bay films compared to how emotive and full of life he is in Bumblebee.
Such bullcrap. He was seen to be playful a few times sure but he was never as dumbed down as the worthless piece of crap he's stuck as for much of his screen time here (oh god that beach scene was so painfully bad... the house bit wasn't much better either). And he had plenty of that so called 'emotion' in those too but I guess you needed all the fake tears on Charlie's to sell it those really 'emotional' bits straight out of the ol' spielbergian textbooks about dead dads and having to the trauma by doing something 'amazing' that really isn't as important to the plot as it thinks it might be and so is just a waste of everybodys time. To be fair she was alright at times and wasn't the most blatant overactor. Obviously that goes to Cena who was clearly playing an actual cartoon character in a live action film rather than a realistic soldier (Made me very much miss folk like Lennox or Epps)

Cobotron wrote:Yo Carnivius, I don't think you really need to worry too much about the Bee movie toys taking over the Studio Series line. There are PLENTY of Bayverse bots left they can, and most likely will make toys of. I'm guessing you are still gonna have plenty of fun with the line for a good long while.
Also, all, this conversation really feels like it would be better had in the actual Bee Movie thread. Lets keep this thread about toys, and take opinions and talk about the movie, it's story, and it's creators over to the appropriate topic.
Thanks!

Gotcha! Hard to keep up while typing when the topic is a hummin'!
Anywho, on to the toys........
Here is my wish list for future SS figures, and I'll be honest I havn't followed well on what is upcoming so maybe it won't all be wishing. In no particular order:
TLK Barricade, I know a lot of you like his TLK toy, but I hated it. I want a new/better mold.
DofM Soundwave car
TLK Hot Rod (see the barricade reason)
Jeep Bumblebee
A good WW2 Bumblebee
That crotchety old Tank from TLK
All cybertron bots from Bumblebee.
Drift from any movie
Crosshairs
Hound

At least I can say the human scenes in Bumblebee mattered a lot more then whatever the hell went on in the Bay movies like over sexualized attempts at getting the girl or Sam's mom eating pot brownies
Lennox was human sandpaper outside of the first movie, nothing about him in ROTF, DOTM or TLK stood out so I'll take hammy and entertaining Agent Burns over him thank you, Epps was fine but he was just sort of there and didn't contribute to the plot much besides getting Sam to Chicago in DOTM.

Those blades and curves man.

DotM Soundwave, is that the same as the human alliance design? I have the movie the best version and it's nice but could be a little more streamlined. I'm up for as many Soundwaves as they'll give me.Ironhidensh wrote:Anywho, on to the toys........

But overall you're missing the point of my main complaint about the Studio Series. I bloody love this toyline. I do not like Siege or other G1 update lines and to see it taken over by G1 looking bots pretty much messes up the one actual collection I was quite happy to be giving what little money I have over for. Because yep, us Bayverse fans are being forced out of our part of the fandom with the movie aesthetics being written over with G1 stuff cos the G1 folk whined like frickin' crazy for the past ten years so maybe if I do the same for the next ten I'll get more of what I like instead except I don't have any other lines to keep myself occupied with til then like the G1 folk have constantly had so wow... this will be tough...
