Today at EB Expo a youngin' came up to me and scoffed at the Combiner Wars display, saying that they were terrible representations of the originals. By originals, he meant
Movieverse. I politely told him that CW are based on the classic Generation 1 characters, which are the originals, but he kept on refuting me, insisting that the Bayverse films are the originals and suggesting that anything else is a deviation. It was at this stage that I pulled out my copy of Transformers Generations and showed him pictures of G1 toys and how CW are obviously based on them. I saw him about to open his mouth to argue with me some more, until I saw his eyes drawn to the "1984" (etc.) years printed on the outer margin of each page. He was quite for a while, but kept on muttering on about how the Movieverse is awesome and better than anything else blah blah blah.
Okay, if people prefer the Movieverse over other TF series, fine. But to insistently proclaim that it's the
original source and superior to anything else??

It was as if he was saying the G1
ruined the Movieverse.

I just... I... yeah...
