Hopefully not GO, I really don't want to have GO translated and delay another good Transformers series from being produced.

I was legitimately surprised how much more I enjoyed Rescue Bots over so many other TF series, most especially Japanese TF series.

RescueBots is a good series. It just got panned because alot of DieHard TF fans went all frothing at the mouth because no Optimus (Aside from cameoes), limited Bumblebee, and it skewing towards a much younger audiance.

That's rather ironic.
TF fans bitching like mad over Bee's rampant prevalence and over-reliance on Prime, then a series is released with neither Prime nor Bee as main characters, and they bitch over the lack of Prime and Bee?
Man, some fandoms really are unpleasable

Oh well. I actually enjoyed Rescue Bots. Heat Wave's pessimism and anger kept a smile across my face

It's a Fandom. Logic doesn't exist

The storylines are good to. They're not overly kiddish, like you might expect. They struck a nice balance. The toys are lacking though. I wouldn't mind the characters from Rescue Bots getting a proper release in the Generations line.

I'd jump at the chance to have a Generations Chase and Heatwave.

And I'll agree. The stories weren't anything complex, but it wasn't Dora or Elmo levels of talking down to the audience.

Of course. They wouldn't be the same without them and their beady little eyes

My memory sucks, but I'd like the Helicoptor and the Bulldozer to both be Voyagers. There aren't enough Voyager releases anymore outside of Prime.
