Those fans are definitely embarrassing. It's also definitely embarrassing that some fans staunchly defend the Michael Bay Transformers movies as well. Both sides have their embarrassing moments.
It’s fine to like or dislike the movies as long as you’re not a jerk about it to other people, which unfortunately, like you said, happens on both sides.
The movies are what got me into Transformers, and I still enjoy watching them all. 07 and DOTM are still great movies IMO (not without faults) and ROTF is really enjoyable without all the crude humor. Not as fond of AOE or TLK, but I still watch them when they’re on TV.
And the designs are, of course, my favorite designs in all of Transformers.
At that same time, I get why people don’t like them. That’s ok! It’s really just not worth arguing about or being mean to other people about.
Now, this is the studio series thread, so uh. . . Here’s a picture of Roadbuster I don’t think I’ve posted before! While I wouldn’t say Roadbuster is as good as Leadfoot or some of the other deluxe Autobots, it is still a really nice figure. The molded detail is super good, and it’s really nice to have a weaponized deluxe after all these years.
