    Not really Transformers but rather the greater Hasbro Corporation. I just found out that Hasbro is selling Entertainment One for 500 million US dollars. But it's rather bad for Hasbro given they paid 4 billion dollars to acquire Entertainment One in the first place.

    I'm now thinking of what we could have gotten out of The Transformers brand if some of the 4 billion dollars went into Transformers instead of being wasted on a media company that would be sold at a loss 4 years later.

    Hmm, the German actor that dubs Optimus Prime in the Bayvers movies is a freaking good stand-in for Peter Cullen.

    There is an actual Lookout Mountain in the USA, and according to DVD special features (so grain of salt) Autobot City: Earth is located near this real mountain.

    Looking at photos, I guess it could be.

    I just realised that since the introduction of the Titan Class, every main-line Generations series has had one Titan Class figure, except Titans Return. That line got both Fort Max and Trypticon, I never realised that both Fort Max and Tryps were in a single line.

    I saw that the other day and was surprised. I didn't remember two in the one series but I waited and got both on clearance so that would have thrown out the timeline for me.

    Titans Return was also extended by 6 months due to the success of the line from memory

    I forgot that Trypticon was a fan-vote.

    When you think about it, it makes sense for the toyline called Titans Return to have more than one Titan.
