Never thought id say this but please give the franchise back to the japanese, at least their last 2 series were watchable, gimmicky as hell but watchable unlike prime and animated oh and bayformers.
I'm not gonna curse you out this time...no. I'm not gonna do it. Hatred has been eating me up all day long! WHY!? I'm about to explode, but you know what? No.

What in the damn hell do you want anyway!? All we see is Optimus and a trailer, and you flip out like it's the worst thing ever!

It took Hasbro so long to realize that Optimus Prime's trailer is what makes Optimus Optimus. Otherwise he's naked and just a crappy truck.
2 movies! we had to go through two crappy movies to get the glory of this trailer.
WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG.
I don't care what their reason is, it was uncalled for, just like Devastator's family jewels.
So for TFP I'm glad to see the trailer, I know 100% it's not permanent thing. The Trailer looks awesome here.

i mean it in a happy excited way dude. optimus wasnt complete without his trailer. since when do u see a semi's driving without their trailer on the roads these days. optimus is a 18 wheeler. once was a firetruck but anyways always had a trailer. even the toys always included the trailer standard. the trailer was never an option. if u real transformers fan u would understand that.
what show are you talking about that prime was firetruck transformers animated show or trasnfromers RID prime in rid & animated was firetruck japanese shows i wouldnt know to much about but both primes had trailers connected to them.
priem in animated had trailer in 1 or 2 episoed that was it rid prime always i would like to 3rd party companie make trailer for prime for transformers prime toy doubt hasbro will do it

I usually refrain from ragging on others' comments, but before this one elicits an even more inflammatory response, the real test is, if U a real Transformers fan, u realize none of us agree on a goddamn thing. Even within our own personal conceptions of the franchise. I'd like to see a TF toon done "right" and "serious", with all the human children replaced by the horrors of eternal war, and at the same time I'm disappointed that Animated was canceled before they had a chance to really try and break the goofy-meter by tossing in Marvel comics elements like Robot-Master, Nightbeat running around in his trenchcoat and developing some sort of gender-identity crisis, and even Japanese Spider Man taking on TFs with his Marbella/Leopardo mech. And I'd like to see the Decepticons win someday. For some reason, others here actually consider Beast Machines a legit continuation of Beast Wars and the G1 cartoon instead of wanting to see it bulk erased and forgotten like I do. And we all get along. That's the magic of REAL Transformerness.
Sorry 'bout the rant. Back on topic...wouldn't it be awesome if the human bad guys in Convoy turned out to be the Roadjammers?

Agreed, you guys gota relax and chill out, theres a million and one different views, and a million and one REAL TF fans.
The show is not bad, but I DO want more story regarding Megatron and everything that left off with him. That said, I definitely get the same satisfaction watching PRIME that I did as a kid watching G1.
Now thats a hard thing to accomplish; These writers got to appeal to AS MANY TF fans as possible... thats a huuuuge spectrum as we all know, and they're actually doing a good job. I'm not insane over the show, but its def the highlight of my Friday.
The trailer is cool, too bad its trashed in the freaking trailer haha, waita spoil the surprise. I also don't really care if there isn't always a trailer. One of you said "how often do you see trucks without a trailer"... well, if you did see one, it doesn't make much of an impression on you and you don't take notice of it. Sounds like a pretty good disguise if you ask me.

Take a good look folks at those lines again folks because THAT is what reason and right-mindedness look like.

I think he meant the human involvement... and dorky elements of animated, prime, and the movies. I understand that side (if thats what you meant). I've never watched the japanese versions, but they seemed too... anime, haha. I like certain anime, but the jap TFs seemed to over the top... If anyone can link me to some english dubbed jap TF shows, energon or armada or whatever, i'll be happy to rethink my opinion

I know, I know, we all have our own opinions, but... the Japanese Dubbed shows were the worst thing to ever happen to Transformers! What was the quote... Oh, "We've warped into another galaxy on the outer edges of the solar system." Plus the horrid Animation, making the only expressions mouth-open, mouth-closed, and Kicker, the most annoying kid ever, the... I could go on forever.
... But of course, we all have our own opinions.
Anyways, back to the topic. It's nice to see Prime with a trailer. It does look too weird without one. I'm pretty optimistic about this show thus far, and I don't think humans will ruin it. I mean, as long as it's always not human villains...

First, most Transformers since their conception have been "Jap" Transformers.
Second, if you don't embrace "dorkiness" you fail to comprehend you still play with toys.
Cue Edith Piaf, because some need to wake up from the 4th level.

The shows meng, G1 american, animated american, beast wars american.... the shoooowwwwssssSSSS hahaha

And I own a xenomorph figure, yet the 4 movies weren't "dorky" at all, other than being about sci fi aliens. Its the hope that one day TFs might present themselves in a less childish way is all, and I tottaly understand that (not complaining coz I GET that TFs are targeted at youth). Again, if this is what buddy was really talking about when he got annoyed at the trailer, haha.
