Beast Hunters final season and a movie

[griffin]

From two different sources (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-prime-39/hasbro-unleashes-transformers-beast-hunters-176877/), a Beast Hunters Movie is to be released towards the end of this year (direct to TV & DVD).
And one of the sources (http://www.allspark.com/content/view/11019/) also mentions that this third season of TFPrime, will be the last. (seems like Hasbro doesn't like going beyond 3 seasons with Transformers cartoons)
That report does mention a new cartoon/series for 2014 though, but should be part of the Aligned universe, since Hasbro have been investing quite a bit into that storyline in recent years.

52 is the, "magic number" for most animated series divides into 3 seasons nicely (unsure if tfp tallies up to 52 EPS.) If a series goes longer than 3 seasons its usually successful e.g. spongebob, teen titans and the Simpsons.

There's is some debate on other boards if the new series will follow on with the prime continuity, I think it will but the new movie will probably form part of the series backstory.

Others have been praying for that fourth season of animated. I don't see that happening.

Well, they do still show a lot of Animated on The Hub in America, so maybe?:confused:;)

That's just wishful think though.:p;)

That magical fourth season of Animated would be top of my wish list. Unlikely to happen though.

I thought originally Prime was going to be the start of their long-running series? Or was that just their alluding to the Aligned Universe?

I kind of want to see a massive long running series again, that would take me back, but I can see there would be logistical problems with that in a way in regards to toys and walmart....:o

I think if tf was just an animated series it would continue, because it's a toyline it has to stay "fresh" and consumer friendly with easy jumping on points
