Side note I love whoever did these animations.
>>11212835I mean, it's your opinion and I can't say you're wrong to have it. But as toys, I think they're pretty good. Shard in particular, I'm not kidding when I say she might be one of my favorite helicopter Transformers I've had. It's been hard to get a helicopter bot that actually felt solid, with blades that were actually firm and not droopy. Maybe droopy blades are fine for a real helicopter but when you're intending to use them as upright swords it looks dopey when they slump over.
The carbots may not seem too inspired but their car modes look distinct enough (excluding calcitron) that it's clear they had that in mind at the design level. As far as car transformers go, it has a more striking look to it than generic sedanbot #84. I generalize because there's nothing wrong with regular carbots overall, but some are just kinda whatever. I appreciate they took a wild swing for something new, and the results are pretty fun. It's not like we're going to get much more of this kind of thing in the future so I don't really get the hate it seems to get sometimes.
