>>8762975>>8763001RiD/Car Robuts was interesting, in that it combined different design philosophies even with the brand new toys. Optimus, Magnus, Build Team, and Bullet Trains all were pretty cool but save for Optimus a bit awkward proportionally like they couldn't quite figure out how to balance the inherent blockiness of vehicle formers with the modern engineering, and then you had the Autobot Bros who I still love just because there is nothing else like them, but really were closer to the awful Japanese BW sequels in terms of being nothing but shellforming and kibble....albeit, much more stylishly than those beasts.
Either way, all better than Armada but like anon said I think going in a more kid oriented direction was part of the plan.
