And if it was any other character, nobody would care...

 

They'd still bitch. Everyones crying "no G1 Arcee" I remember when this was first announced everyone was pissed that it's "not G1 Arcee"

 

Alot of times I believe Hasbro is run buy monkeys flinging feices at ideas taped to a wall. I can also see why alot of times we are dismissed.

 

Case in point, yeah, no one cares about the ROTF toys, but all month long, everyones done nothing but bitch that they aren't here yet...

Quite true.

And they're the ones who need to make up there mind. After all, like Mother's of America, it's there big mouths that are fucking it up for everybody!!!

 

Why should Hasbro care about collectors when at every turn good or bad they threaten to renounce the franchise!?!

I could honestly care less about the animated Arcee (not a big fan of the design) but I am a bit pissed off that the electrostatic Soundwave and Blackout were canceled :fire

Well that's disappointing....Hasbro seems to be screwing up left and right this year.

I loved that Arcee design, and it was finally close to what the original looked like. Aside from A.R.C. I haven't seen anything close to a G1 figure. They will probably end up making her, they just don't want us thinking about anything but breaking records with ROTF toy sales for now.

I hope they do Universe 3.0 with Animated figures with the same Animated stylings but with better plastic.

I'm hoping we'll see Arcee and the others made and that Animated will just pick back up after ROTF dies out. But then again, if Hasbro milks ROTF like they did the first one, that could be quite a long time from now.

 

What really stinks is that NOW, the last couple of episodes of Animated that we get, Arcee finally shows back up, and Ratbat makes an appearance. Meanwhile we had repaints like Roadbuster Ultra Magnus and Elite Guard Bumblee who never made it into the show, and Oil Slick who was a toy long before he was written into the show. I'm just sad we'll probably never get a truly worthwhile Rodimus Prime, guess I'll just have to support the Fans Project set instead of all the ROTF bologna.

Dang it! I haven't really been into the animated stuff, but I was actually going to pick this one up, smooth move Hasbro!

Although its a shame for Arcee completists and Animated apologists everywhere, I sure as the pit DON'T want to see ANY animated toys whatsoever in the Universe line. They don't belong around other TF figs as they have a design that sets them apart from all other TFs (with the exceptions to the Tonka Gobots, perhaps and those cute Transformer Heroes figs).

 

Animated is Animated: leave them where they belong.
