Where do you feel Transformers is MIA on?

Well, for the longest time, since Tatsunoko (Takara Tomy-owned anime studio that gave us Speed Racer, Gatchaman/G Force, Casshern, Hurricane Polimar, Tekkaman Blade, among others) shows Tekkaman Blade and Macross alongside ZOIDS had already shown up in Super Robot Wars, I actually find it hard to believe that TF is MIA in SRW.

Are there any other instances you feel this is the case? Please feel free to share them.

Super Robot Wars, a very popular strategy game series with robots from all kinds of series, like GoLion (Voltron), Mazinger, Getter Robo and even GaoGaiGar.

MIA means "Missing In Action" by the way.

I can't say Transformers would fit in such series, as they're too "kiddish". At the very most I could see Star Saber and Galaxy Convoy, but that's it.

Honestly, TF's just wouldn't be a good fit for Robot Wars.

Also the shear magnitude of characters and storyline would be hard to pair down into a game story line, without overpowering the game fully.

If Banpresto truly worked with the franchise, It would be better for then to work on a TF Universe game using the SRW mechanics crossing over the various TF and aligned time-lines.
