Damage Control? The movie made more money than God. People went to see it and possibly saw it again and probably told their friends to go see it. And then bought some toys. And then bought the DVD.
Of course Transfans who thought it sucked probably did the same thing too.
I don't think anybody at the studio or Hasbro (i.e: those who just got an incredible return on their investment) will be giving advice to Michael Bay on how to make them money.
As for the sneak peak? It's a pic of something yellow and indistinct - but movie-ish. I'll hold judgement until I see something more meaningful.
