Anyone else feel there was afew.....
....Missed oppurtunitys with the series ?
Okay don't get me wrong, it was brilliantly, tirelessly and creatively made, and I liked how the story works out (although the thing with the Vok ended up being rushed short, because the big THING was really the Raising of the Nemesis at the series end, which was great really).
I would have preffered they based some of the characters on better toys ?
(for instance, the toys of pre-transmetal Terrorsaur and Blackarachnia were aweful and nothing like the real characters in the show, who were VASTLY better).
The character models in the show were great, but some of them were based on REALLY bad toys. Inferno was a great villain-character, but he's in Series 3, and not even a transmetal. I would have preffered he got killed off and replaced with a transmetal character for that 3rd Series, such as Scourge or Scavenger (Scavenger is a bit too similar to Rampage).
Having many of the regulars turned to Transmetals was great, but Rhinox and waspinator never changed (Waspinator I can take, he always gets killed, he's a scrap-bot) but Rhinox being normal was kindof a waste. Surely they would have had the time to show a transmetal Rhinox, actually now that I think about it no they wouldn't. Never mind then.
The other thing was how the series ended, I love the thing with Waspinator, but for such a big , entertaining series that I had loved watching and followed for three whole seasons:
I would have preffered it to show waspinator, and then after that, it's the maximals leaving in the ship, and Megatron lashed onto the roof of that ship, THEN as the ship flies off and vanishes into space, we hear the title music start (but it's not the credits just yet) the shot then FADES to the end credits sequence. That would have been ideal and a fitting end for that series.
