TOYS ARE COMING!

From a great insider from tfw2005:
>Brian Goldner (and by extension Hasbro) wants to bring Dungeons & Dragons to the forefront. Even though this may sounds unrelated to Transformers, Transformers is taking a back seat for the time.

>What movies did for Transformers, they want it for D&D. Despite the critical backlash, the live action movies did wonders for the franchise.

>Hasbro has outlined their entertainment slate until 2023 and D&D will be the main focus, said the CEO. Movies, TV series, cartoons, comics, toys... just like TF.

Stated that 'D&D is more substantial than Transformers at the moment'.

>Keep in mind that this doesn't mean we won't see Transformers movies. In fact, the company is working really hard for the animated movie and then live action movie(s). Paramount is even gathering a crew for the live action one (or two?) as we speak. The movies are budgeted same as Bumblebee. Big budget goes to D&D.

>I'll update you with info as time goes on, but you'll likely to hear more (and what I mentioned above regarding D&D) at Pulsecon.

Question:Certainly raises my eyebrows to how far down the priority list we've fallen thanks to TLK.

>I can give you an exact number. 4th. After DND, Nerf, and My Little Pony.

>But not necessarily due to TLK. Various factors. It's natural. It can happen. Commonly known term is 'Franchise Fatigue'. Even Disney (live action movies, Marvel, Star Wars) is not immune from it.
