What the movie did was take these interesting characters, remolded them and made new interpretations of them, giving them a twist of reality and possibility. thats what im seeking, for them to make all the original team members (mirage, hound, trailbreaker, huffer, sunstreaker, brawn, cliffjumper, windcharger, prowl, etc.) a version of the movie FIRST as homages for those iconic characters. i dont know if you guys were born then, but the original team were really big icons then.

How has the movie universe "destroyed the legacy" of the G1 characters? The legacies are still there. Again using the Scourge example: When Generations Scourge was announced, did everyone go "But Scourge is supposed to be an evil clone of Optimus"? No, most compared him to his G1 character. Again, this is a new continuity. This means the names can be applied to whoever the creators want them to...you know, get creative. It doesn't have to be a G1 throwback.
