>>5727708>they keep deviating from neo-G1 to do BW, UT, IDW, rereredos, etc.We get a handful of BW/UT figures every 5 years. Wow. Keep in mind they where in lines called "Universe" and "Generations", not classics. I'm sorry you think a 3-5toys every few years threatens the line, but considering we're still getting classics figures, it just goes to show that it hasn't killed the line, huh?
Hate to break it to you, but IDW was in the original Classics line too. Don's Jetfire design was one of the first. Hasbro uses a lot of comic artists to do freelance design for them so there's naturally a lot of crossover. Besides, the original Classics line was helter-skelter as far as looking like they belong together, anyway. Megatron, Starscream, Mirage, and Bubmlebee are all really different from eachother.
>Alternators deviated whether you have an excuse for it or not and took Binaltech down with itAlternators was never goign to give us a full 84/85 line up by nature of it being focussed on just cars, anyway. besides, licensing nightmares abounded. It was never going to please purists. At any rate, there where ay more issues that brought down Alternators than adding some new characters or making non-vehicle characters into vehicles.
> Encore took a dive when poorfags screamed for city bots they didn't intend to actually buy and took 84/85 reissues with it.A lot of those 84/85 molds are unusable or can barely be found, anyway.
>Now there's MP which deviated into awful Bayformer junk and is deviating again into BW with people screaming for ArmadaWe got TWO repaints of LEader figures from a subline like 5 years ago, then nothing more in the way of bayformer MPs. again, what? Pretty sure that was before they even decided to do the full 1984 line,anyway, which only became a plan after sideswipe in late 2012.
Your whole post just seems like paranoid jumps to conclusions.
