>I was thinking about this recently and I kind of wondered if I'm alone on this, but are we getting to the point in where the franchise needs a major creative overhaul? Much in a same way it reinvented it'self with Beast Wars, because honestly between the films, hit or miss generations, and RID, I feel like the franchise as a whole is starting to stagnate creatively.
>What it needs is a decent show on Netflix or some such done by someone talented, Hasbro's really been doing a bad job with their IP for a while. The fiction needs a new direction, for sure, but that's only because it's been so poorly handled for a long while. We've got a lot of great toys coming out with almost no fiction representation, and that makes sure that the market is niche; nobody has a reason to seek it out except the folks that already want it.
>I think you misunderstand what I'm proposing here. Yeah, the franchise has been successful recently, but it's headed for a wall. Only those who would be in denial don't see it as something that will eventually happen.
>That's all well and good, but that can only go so far before the well runs dry. And looking at Power of the Primes, it feels like we're getting to that point.
>Generations been successful for awhile now, but that can only last for so long with what they've been doing.
