This has surfaced, relating to a new partnership between Hasbro and a digital release platform, suggesting that the RID cartoon could be continuing as a digital only release cartoon (which I think netflix has various exclusive shows that don't get released to TV, at least for a while). If true, this could explain why it was leaked by a show writer, that they were currently working on season 4, while the TV episodes look to only be two seasons (with the second season only being 13 episodes).
Considering a lot of young kids are now being "babysat" by digital devices/pads and content downloaded onto them by their parents, this would be a reasonable direction for Hasbro to release cartoons, that otherwise get screwed over by the major networks... who are known to air episodes at inconsistent times or periods (in America), cut up episodes to fit in more advertising or kids content (in Australia), or force the early end of a cartoon series for the marketing of "new" content to their customers (by Hasbro, with Animated).
If this is true, or happens eventually anyway, we might actually see longer Transformers series if they prove popular (like Animated), as the natural progression of the show will dictate its end, rather than the Networks, Retailers, or Hasbro launching its own cable TV channel (the HUB, which killed off Animated early).
